CHAPTER 29: CHAPTER 29: DON’T BEG ME TO COME BACK ANYMORE

"Yes, Serena, you’ve been back in Imperia for a few days now. Tonight we’re going to the old house for dinner. You should come and see Grandpa!" Jocelyn Sterling spoke softly.

Serena Everett fluttered her long, delicate lashes, responding casually, "Okay."

"I have social obligations tonight and can’t accompany you and the children to the old house for dinner. Jocelyn, I will rely on you to take the children there." Ivan Everett patted the back of her hand, his eyes almost overflowing with tenderness, "If you feel unwell, call me immediately!"

"I know, I know. Being all lovey-dovey in front of the kids, what does it look like!" Jocelyn Sterling glared at Ivan Everett, reproaching him with her words, but her eyes were filled with happiness.

Seeing this scene, Serena Everett felt a warmth, her red lips involuntarily curling slightly.

However, Cassia Everett spun her eyes around, a hint of malice floating in them.

Old Master Everett usually doted on her the most. Today she must make Old Master Everett help her, mercilessly teach Serena this bitch a lesson!

Serena had caused her so much humiliation these days, tonight she was going to revenge them all!

...

Everett Family Old House.

"Madam, Young Master and Miss, the Master has been waiting for you for quite a while." A servant led them to the living room.

"Serena, Grandpa is very old-fashioned. If he says something that displeases you, just ignore him. You have your brother, I’ll back you up!" Niall Everett whispered in her ear.

Serena Everett felt even warmer in her heart and curved her red lips toward him.

Watching their interaction, the jealousy in Cassia Everett’s eyes intensified, fiercely thinking.

Humph, laugh now. Let’s see how you laugh later!

The dishes on the dining table in the hall were served, and sitting at the main seat was Old Master Everett. He appeared in his sixties, with a stern expression and occasionally a glint in his eye, not seeming like an easy person.

"Grandpa, we’ve come to see you!" Cassia Everett immediately flashed a sweet smile and walked toward Old Master Everett.

Old Master Everett’s expression softened slightly and he spoke with a hint of purpose, "Cassia, look how you’ve lost so much weight since before. It really pains me. Were you bullied over there?"

Cassia Everett had long since called Old Master Everett with exaggerated complaints. Hearing his question now, she immediately showed a perfect hint of grievance but shook her head.

"No, Grandpa, no one bullied me. I lived well over there!"

Jocelyn Sterling sensed the atmosphere was off and immediately stepped forward, speaking, "Father, Ivan and I have treated Cassia like our own daughter. How could we let her be bullied!"

"It was indeed like that before." Old Master Everett spoke with displeasure, his gaze fell on Serena Everett, snorted coldly, "But now, who knows!"

Their eyes met, Serena Everett’s gaze was unwavering, calmly looking back without a hint of fear. Finally, it was Old Master Everett who conceded, awkwardly withdrawing his gaze.

How could this wild child have such a strong presence?!

"Grandpa, are you okay?" Cassia Everett immediately stepped forward to support him, asking with concern.

Old Master Everett’s face didn’t look good, and he waved his hand, speaking in a low voice, "Grandpa’s fine, don’t worry. Whoever bullied you, Grandpa will teach them a lesson!"

Upon hearing this, Cassia Everett immediately showed a smug smile, she was already eager to see Serena, that bitch, being punished!

"Okay, everyone stop standing and sit down to eat!"

"Alright, Father." Jocelyn Sterling nodded in agreement, then called for them to sit down, "Sit down and eat!"

Just as Serena Everett was about to sit down, Old Master Everett’s sinister voice sounded.

"Who allowed you to sit?"

Faced with Old Master Everett’s blatant hostility, Serena Everett wasn’t going to accommodate him. Her delicate brows lazily arched, as she sat down directly.

"I’m also part of the Everett Family. Why can’t I sit?"

Though she appeared indifferent, it inexplicably made people feel afraid.

"You..."

Intimidated by Serena Everett’s presence, Old Master Everett had no choice but to vent his anger on the nearby Jocelyn Sterling, "Look at this, it’s the ill-mannered thing you raised, daring to speak to elders like this, showing no respect at all!"

Listening to Old Master Everett scold Serena, Jocelyn Sterling, usually so gentle, couldn’t help but her face darkened.

"I think neither of you need to sit down and eat!" Old Master Everett reprimanded and then addressed Cassia Everett, "We’ll eat, those two don’t deserve to sit at the table!"

Upon hearing this, Niall Everett couldn’t hold back his anger anymore and was about to stand up when a cold, piercing voice suddenly rang out.

"Then nobody should eat."

Serena Everett’s stunning fox-like eyes were filled with intense coldness, and with a loud "bang," she flipped the dining table over.

If she and mom couldn’t sit at the table, then nobody should eat.

His little sister was quite badass!!!

Seeing this scene, Niall Everett felt utterly satisfied. If the occasion permitted, he would have applauded!

He even wanted to be her sidekick!

"You... cough cough... you disgrace..."

Seeing the mess on the floor, Old Master Everett felt his authority had been challenged, and his gaze toward her became even more hostile, trembling with anger.

"Grandpa..." Cassia Everett immediately began accusing her, "Sister, Grandpa’s health isn’t good, and you’re aggravating him like this. What if something happens to Grandpa from anger?"

Serena Everett’s voice was chilling, "He won’t die."

She was speaking the truth. Even if he had one foot in Hades’ Hall, as long as she wanted to save him, he wouldn’t die.

But hearing this truth, Old Master Everett’s anger deepened, shaking more violently with rage.

Seeing Old Master Everett on the verge of being agitated into an attack, Jocelyn Sterling couldn’t help but worry, quickly speaking softly, "Serena, apologize to Grandpa, say you’re sorry..."

If Old Master Everett really had an attack because of Serena’s agitation and the news spread, Serena would surely be spoken of as unfilial behind her back!

"I’m not wrong." Serena Everett’s exquisite porcelain-white face exuded coldness, this look was terrifying.

"You insolent thing!" Old Master Everett’s face darkened even more, suddenly slamming the table, "You disgrace, get out of the old house!"

Serena Everett’s delicate brows lazily arched, her tone cold and proud, "Fine, I’ll leave. Don’t beg me to come back."

She had seen at a glance the purplish tint under his eyes, slightly bluish lips, and poor spirits, all signs of a major illness about to strike—it would soon manifest.

"Beg you, this disgrace, to come back?" Old Master Everett immediately sneered, "Stop dreaming about it!"
