CHAPTER 423: CHAPTER 423: REMEMBER WHAT YOU SAID TODAY

Serena pursed her red lips and made another video call, but it was hung up again as soon as it connected.

"Ha..."

Seeing the video call being hung up again, Serena laughed in exasperation.

Fine, this damn man better never think of calling her on video again!

Just as Serena was fuming, the man’s call came through, his deep and magnetic voice coming from the other end, sending a tingling sensation to one’s ears.

"Baby, I was just showering,"

But Serena’s expression grew colder, her luscious red lips curling coldly as she let out a disdainful sneer, clearly not believing his words.

It’s daytime in Imperia, why would he be taking a shower in broad daylight?

Hearing the sneer, Damian Quinn guessed the little girl’s thoughts, his captivating eyes slightly narrowed, a doting smile gracing his lips.

Tsk, it’s not necessarily a good thing for his girl to be too smart, not easy to fool!

"Baby, a senior executive accidentally spilled coffee on me, that’s why I was showering in the hotel just now."

This explanation sounded reasonable, and surely he wouldn’t dare lie to her!

The anger in Serena’s heart dissipated somewhat, but thinking of being hung up twice by the man, she huffed arrogantly.

"Quite a coincidence, I call and you’re in the shower."

"Baby, don’t you trust me?"

The man’s deep magnetic voice carried a lazy charm, sending tingling sensations to one’s ears.

Before Serena could speak, Damian Quinn had already turned on the camera.

What met her eyes was the man’s bare upper body, with eight defined abs and a perfect V-line... exuding tension and allure.

"Baby, do you believe me now?"

Caught off guard by the sight, Serena’s white earlobes flushed slightly, she pursed her red lips, "I didn’t say I don’t believe you."

Hearing this, Damian Quinn felt a slight relief, knowing his girl was shy, that’s why he came up with this move.

He managed to fool her for the time being.

Serena: "Put on your clothes."

Looking at the girl’s shy demeanor, Damian Quinn’s eyes deepened, his beautiful thin lips curling into a low chuckle.

"Baby, you used to see this all the time, why are your ears red now?"

"They’re not!"

A strong-willed Celestian woman like Serena never admits defeat, stubbornly insisting.

"My ears are not red!"

The arc of the man’s lips deepened further, his tone immensely doting, "Alright, if my baby says they’re not, they’re not."

Serena finally raised her chin in satisfaction, her extremely beautiful eyes holding a mischievous glint, teasing him with her words.

"From now on, even if you’re showering, you’re not allowed to hang up my video call, it’s not like I’ve never seen it before!"

Ha...

Damian Quinn clearly didn’t expect her to say that, his captivating eyes slightly raised, sexy and charming, like a sly man.

"Serena, if I dare to answer, do you dare to watch?"

At this, Serena raised her delicate, creamy face defiantly, "Why wouldn’t I dare to watch? If you were in front of me now, I’d already have my hands on you, making you cry!"

After all, he’s far away in Imperia, they’re so far apart, no matter how much she boasts, he can’t do anything about it!

"Make me cry?"

Damian Quinn’s eyes instantly turned dark and deep, full of intensity, his deep magnetic voice turning hoarse.

"Alright! Baby, don’t just talk big, let’s see if you can back it up when we meet."

"Back out?"

Serena propped her legs on the sofa, her delicate brows lazily raised,

"Impossible!"

She still had some time before she could return to Imperia, there was no backing out, she couldn’t lose her momentum!

"Very well."

Damian Quinn’s eyes lingered on her with a faint smile, his tone laced with meaning.

"Baby, remember what you said today."

...

Imperia, Old Mansion.

"Grandma Quinn!"

Crystal Joyce’s sweet smile on her pure face immediately made people take a liking to her.

"I’m here to accompany you again."

"Miss Crystal is truly filial, coming to the mansion every day to see the old lady!" the butler said with a smile.

Old Mrs. Quinn looked somewhat dazed, but nodded, "Yes, Crystal is a good, filial child!"

Crystal Joyce’s smile grew sweeter, "It’s only right for me to keep Grandma Quinn company to relieve her boredom, as long as Grandma doesn’t mind, I’m willing to come every day!"

Old Mrs. Quinn rubbed her temples, looking dazed, her complexion much worse compared to before.

"Why would I mind? Crystal, you keep me company, Grandma is happy!"

"Miss Crystal, with you here, I can go make the medicine with peace of mind!"

"Make medicine?" Crystal’s face immediately showed appropriate concern, "Is Grandma feeling unwell?"

The butler sighed slightly, "For some reason, the old lady frequently has headaches lately, and her complexion has worsened significantly, so I’ve arranged for some medicine to be made for her."

Hearing this, Crystal Joyce’s eyes twitched.

Old Mrs. Quinn’s symptoms were caused by the Enchanting Fragrance, she couldn’t let them ruin its effects by making medicine!

"Butler, don’t trouble yourself, I happen to have a remedy for headaches that’s very effective, leave it to me!"

"Well..."

The butler seemed a bit hesitant, so Crystal Joyce feigned a hurt expression.

"Butler, don’t you trust me?"

Crystal Joyce had always left the impression of being kind and gentle among the mansion’s staff, and she came every day to keep Old Mrs. Quinn company, her filial piety increasing their favorable impression of her.

The butler naturally didn’t think further, "Miss Crystal, of course I trust you, then I’ll trouble you!"

Crystal Joyce’s face regained its smile, but her eyes were filled with malice, "It’s no trouble, it’s my duty to show filial respect to Grandma Quinn!"

The Enchanting Fragrance was already working, she could speed things up, it wouldn’t be long before she could completely control Old Mrs. Quinn’s mind!

"By the way, Butler, why haven’t I seen Master Damian today?" Crystal Joyce asked casually.

No matter how busy Damian Quinn was, he always visited the old mansion every Friday, so she had dressed up specifically for today.

She visited the old mansion every day for the chance to see Damian Quinn, as long as she saw him, she could find an opportunity to get closer!

Now that Serena is not in Imperia, it’s her golden opportunity!

Butler: "Master Damian is on a trip to Ystoria."

"What?"

Crystal Joyce’s face changed instantly, her hands clenched tightly at her sides.

Damian Quinn must have gone to Ystoria for that bitch Serena! Serena just left Imperia a few days ago, and he’s already rushing over there?!

Crystal Joyce’s eyes filled with jealousy, if Damian Quinn and that bitch Serena stayed together, she would have no more chances!

She had to find a way to force Damian Quinn to return!!!
