Chapter 892
The man’s hair was thick and incredibly soft to the touch.
She couldn’t help it. Her fingers twitched, and she gave it a good rub.
Mhm p>
It really was soft.
Nice to pet.
Since his hair was this soft and nice to touch, she reluctantly decided to let him nuzzle her.
The car slowly drove through the main gates of the Lancaster Estate.
Serena glanced at the brightly lit mansion, her eyes softening.
“Alright, you can head back now p>
“Discarding me after use?” Nicholas raised an eyebrow. “I was at least tonight’s best background prop. Aren’t you going to invite me in for a seat and a glass of water p>
Serena pushed the door open and stepped out, shooting him a lazy, sideways glance. “It’s too late. And if my dad sees you entering his daughter’s room in the middle of the night, he’ll probably use my grandpa’s cane to break your legs p>
Nicholas was speechless.
He chuckled, deciding not to insist on making his presence known to his future in- laws tonight.
After watching the girl walk into the estate and completely disappear from sight, the smile in Nicholas’s eyes slowly faded.
Those mesmerizing eyes now glinted with a profound, chilling hostility.
He got into the car, pulled out his phone, and dialed a number.
“Nathan Hart p>
He called his best friend’s name, his voice cold and deep. “Investigate the Doyle family and their overseas backing p>
How dare he look at his Serena with that kind of gaze.
Those eyes p>
Should be gouged out!
The living room was brightly lit.
Although it was already one in the morning, no one in the Lancaster family was asleep.
Even Old Mr. Lancaster was rocking back and forth in his armchair.
Edward Lancaster and Catherine Vinton had their brows furrowed, whispering to each other.
“We definitely have to host The Vinton Debutante Gala. Serena is our only precious daughter; we must introduce her to everyone grandly p>
“Of course. In the past… that Isabella Lancaster was a fake, and we spoiled her so much. Now that our biological daughter is back, the scale must be even bigger p>
Catherine sighed. “But you know how people in this circle are. They all love to compare and gossip. Serena suffered outside since she was little and grew up in the countryside she dropped out of high school. If those people ask… how embarrassed will she be?” Content belong
Some people might even use that to attack Serena.
Julian Lancaster pushed up his gold-rimmed glasses, his tone gentle but full of concern. “Indeed. Even if they don’t say anything to our faces, the gossip behind her back will only make Serena feel worse p>
Although the Lancaster family had prestige in Vaelion City and could shut people up in public, they couldn’t control the whispers behind closed doors.
Edward sighed. “We don’t care about Serena’s background. As long as she’s our precious daughter, even it she couldn’t read, she’s still the apple of our eye. Not to mention p>
Serena is actually sohet
But if she hears those people spouting nonsense, ever if she doesn’t say anything, she’ll definitely feel hurt p>
Julian suggested, “How about this? I’ll contact a few Ivy League universities in the United Realmen States we can donate a few buildings to their syndicate and get Serena an honorary degree to shut those people up p>
“But… I can’t bear to let Serena leave.” Catherine looked heartbroken.
The whole family was wrapped in gloom.
No matter how omnipotent or powerful Serena was outside p>
In their hearts, she was just their precious darling who needed to be pampered, protected, and worried about.
Standing in the hallway, Serena listened to their discussion, feeling both amused and warmed.
This was family.
No matter what she was like, their first reaction was always the fear that she would be wronged or have her pride hurt.
