Chapter 636
“Since when do your assumptions represent me?” Serena scoffed. “If you want to
have a peaceful trip to see them and cling to your little backing, then stay out of my way p>
Isabella’s face paled. The way she bit her lip lost its pitiful innocence, replaced by a seething, teeth-grinding resentment.
She clenched her fists, forcing down a suffocating wave of rage, and didn’t dare say another word.
Hearing the commotion in the living room p>
The rest of the Lancaster family quickly hurried over.
“Mom, you were looking for me?” Serena turned to Catherine.
Catherine knew exactly where she had just been. Looking into the girl’s clear, placid eyes, she seemed as emotionally detached as usual.
But her maternal instinct sharply caught a faint-yet undeniably present-layer of sorrow clinging to her.
It had to be because of the Wynn family.
Her Serena might have appeared aloof, as if nothing in the world could bother her.
But deep down, she valued genuine connections more than anything.
She had indeed let go of the Wynns.
However, twenty years of familial bonds couldn’t just be erased overnight.
Catherine took Serena’s hand, deliberately choosing not to bring up the Wynn family.
Instead, her face blossomed into a gentle smile. “Have you packed everything? It’s almost time to head out p>
Serena gave a slight nod.
“An emergency meeting just came up at the company, so I really can’t get away. But I’ve already told your grandparents that you’ll be coming to visit,” Catherine said, glancing in Isabella’s direction. “How about… you and Isabella take separate flights? Once I wrap things up here, I’ll fly straight over to meet you p>
“No need. Applying for a new flight route is a hassle.” Traveling separately would only cause unnecessary complications.
Catherine glanced at Isabella again. “But p>
She didn’t want to make things difficult for Serena. Knowing full well that Serena disliked Isabella, it felt wrong to put them on the same private jet alone.
Serena shrugged. “Irrelevant people don’t bother me p>
Catherine’s eyes grew slightly red. “Then promise me you’ll call the moment you land. If you’re not used to anything over there or if anyone, gives you a hard time, you have to tell me immediately, okay?
Serena nodded. “I know. Don’t worry, I will p>
“How can we not worry?” Old Mr. Lancaster had Alfred wheel him over to Serena Without a word of protest allowed, he shoved an international black card into her band. “Being abroad isnt like being at home Take this money. Buy whatever you need, and don’t you dare try to save your grandfather’s money p>
Serena:… Another black card acquired.
Isabella watched as the entire family crowded around Serena, fussing over her with overwhelming concern.
It was as if Serena were heading into a deadly warzone instead of a simple trip.
She pursed her lips. Watching her grandfather hand Serena yet another black card made the jealousy written on her face nearly impossible to hide.
She waited for what felt like an eternity, but her grandfather never once offered her a black card.
Unable to hold back any longer, she
purposefully stepped forward,
flashing a sickeningly sweet smile “Grandpa Mom, Dad
Benedict-don’t worry. Once we’re in the United Realmon States, K definitely take great care of Serena p>
The Lancaster family merely nodded, offering her a few perfunctory instructions.
Isabella’s eyes turned icy as a cold sneer curled in her heart.
Once they reached the United Realmon States, it would be her territory.
She couldn’t wait to see if this country bumpkin could still act so arrogant and smug when facing their grandparents!
