Chapter 654
The thought made the excitement in Isabella’s eyes shine even brighter.
However p>
Before Isabella could wait for Serena to shove her away-giving her the perfect excuse to dramatically fall to the floor.
A sudden force yanked her from behind.
Her grandmother grabbed her arm and pulled her aside.
Isabella’s hand merely brushed past Serena’s sleeve.
“It’s you p>
Kiera’s eyes widened in sheer disbelief. She grabbed Serena’s hand, her voice trembling with raw excitement. “Child, you… you’re Serena p>
The sudden pull made Isabella stumble a few steps.
When she turned around, she saw her grandmother clinging tightly to Serena’s hands, her face glowing with absolute joy.
Isabella’s heart sank like a stone.
Then, she watched her grandmother turn excitedly to her grandfather. “Honey, this… this is the brilliant Elyndorian doctor who saved me on the shopping street. My lifesaver. I can’t believe it… The girl who saved my life is actually Serena. She’s our granddaughter p>
Isabella’s expression instantly froze, her sweet smile completely collapsing.
The person who saved her grandmother… was actually Serena?
How could it be Serena?
The coincidence was absurd.
Out of all the people in the city, why did Serena have to be the one to stumble upon her grandmother having a medical emergency?
Remembering how ecstatic her grandmother had been when talking about the girl who saved her.
Isabella felt a sickening sense of dread.
Had all her carefully laid poison been for nothing?
“Serena, oh my goodness… What kind of fate is this?” Kiera held Serena’s hands,
her face radiating maternal love. “I’m your grandmother. It’s me p>
Serena looked down at her tightly held hands, a faint, genuine smile touching her lips.
She greeted softly, “Grandma p>
Kiera’s eyes lit up. “Yes. Oh, what a good girl p>
As she spoke she pulled a black credit card from her pocket and pressed it into Serena’s hand. “This is a welcome gift from me. And look at all these went out to the shopping street today specifically to buy presents for you p>
With that, she pulled Serena over to a mountain of designer shopping bags.
Serena looked at the card in her hand, then at the ridiculous pile of luxury bags on the floor.
She couldn’t help but chuckle.
They really were a family.
Their penchant for tossing around no-limit credit cards like they were pocket change was identical.
Since returning to the Lancaster family, she had lost track of how many endless-limit cards she had been given.
“Thank

“Don’t thank me. I should be thanking you.” Kiera was thrilled beyond belief.
No wonder she had instantly felt so drawn to the girl the moment they met.
It was because this was her precious granddaughter.
Though… there was a tiny pang of regret.
She had originally planned to rope this brilliant young doctor into marrying her son.
She never expected p>
Well, having her as a granddaughter was just as amazing.
As long as they were family, nothing else mattered.
Bursting with joy, Kiera pulled Serena over to Holden. “Serena, this is your grandfather p>
Serena offered a polite, respectful greeting. “Grandpa p>
“Ah.” Holden looked at the girl before him. Her features were the spitting image of Catherine.
He couldn’t help but feel an immediate surge of affection.
Knowing that his own flesh and blood was the one who had saved his wife’s life made his eyes brim with pride and admiration. “Good. Very good. Truly a child of the Vinton family p>
