Chapter 660
Anna was a spoiled heiress who saw the world in black and white.
She didn’t like Serena, and that was that.
Everything about the other girl simply rubbed her the wrong way.
“Oh?” Douglas let out a soft scoff, his dark gaze sweeping over them coolly. “Why don’t we let Dr. Baldur tell you if this is Isabella’s fault p>
Even though Douglas was Kiera’s youngest son, he had spent years running in dangerous circles. The aura he carried was absolutely terrifying.
Anna had always been terrified of him.
Hearing him speak, Anna’s face paled slightly. She subconsciously looked over at Dr. Baldur, her grandmother’s attending physician.
“What do you mean? Dr. Baldur and Isabella p>
Before she could even finish, Dr. Baldur flushed with utter humiliation. “I was too narrow-minded. Miss Lancaster is completely right to teach me a lesson p>
With that, he practically tucked his tail between his legs and fled the scene.
Anna was stunned.
What exactly was going on?
Dr. Baldur was a top-tier cardiology expert. He usually walked around with his nose
in the air, looking down on everyone.
Even if her father came in person, Baldur rarely gave him the time of day.
Yet now he was bowing and scraping to a small-town girl? And running away like a coward?
What in the world just happened?
Anna bit her lower lip and looked at Douglas, hoping for an explanation.
Isabella hadn’t expected her usually aloof uncle to actually take Serena’s side and defend her.
Was it because of their blood tie?
Terrified that Douglas might actually tell Anna the truth and ruin her perfect image in the girl’s eyes, Isabella moved quickly.
She hurriedly grabbed Anna’s arm. Forcing a smile, she said gently, “Anna, don’t misunderstand my sister. She’s wonderful… When Grandma had an attack at the shopping district this afternoon it was my sister who stepped in and saved her. She’s our hero p>
“Our hero?” Anna looked Serena up and down, her gaze landing on the cheap canvas bag slung over the girl’s shoulder. She let out a

disdainful scoff. “You think there are coincidences like that in this world? Grandma is usually perfectly fine. How is it that the moment she shows up, Grandma gets sick? And
then happens to be saved by her p>
“I bet this was all a setup. She staged the whole thing just to suck up to Grandma and win her favor p>
Leaning into her malicious speculation, she turned to Kiera. “Grandma, think carefully. Did you eat or drink anything a stranger gave you right before your attack p>
The implication was incredibly heavy.
She was practically pointing right at Serena’s forehead, clearly accusing her of causing Kiera’s medical emergency.
Accusing her of directing and starring in her own little play.
Hearing this, Kiera’s expression soured immediately.
This wasn’t just an insult to the girl who saved her life, her own biological
granddaughter… it was an insult to the intelligence of a seventy-year-old woman!
“Nonsense! What kind of rubbish are you spewing Furious, Kiera snatched a financial magazine offe the table and hurled it hard at Arna without a second thought. “This is Serena! She is my flesh and blood, and she saved my life! If you dare slander her one more time, get the hell out of here p>
