CHAPTER 318: CHAPTER 318: INFINITE HATRED

Jude Chaucer looked at the items above and was startled.

Watching the crowd still talking over there, Jude Chaucer quietly slipped out.

Someone was waiting at the door, looking extremely anxious.

"Did you find out?" Jude Chaucer immediately asked, "Was it really Vera Hansen who pushed Miss Sheridan down the stairs leading to her miscarriage?"

The assistant nodded: "It’s already verified, it was a video posted by user 567, and this as well."

The assistant handed the tablet to Jude Chaucer, showing Leoric Nash’s analysis.

Jude Chaucer felt a chill down his spine.

At this moment, the people inside had also finished their discussion.

Serena Sterling put away the documents.

She nodded to Silas Hawthorne beside her, then looked at the elderly couple over there.

After thinking for a moment, Serena Sterling said to them, "Take care, Sir and Madam."

No matter what, the opportunity to reclaim the things of the Sheridan Family in advance this time was greatly aided by the two elders.

The elderly couple sighed deeply, and finally, the elderly lady said, "Serena, come over for dinner when you have time in the future, and bring Seraphina along."

After all, Serena’s genuine care for them back then was seen by everyone.

After a slight pause, the elderly lady glanced at Silas Hawthorne standing aside and added, "Bring the boy from the Hawthorne Family too."

Silas Hawthorne held Serena Sterling’s hand and smiled, "Okay."

He just agreed; as for whether or when to go, that was another matter.

Saying this, Silas Hawthorne held Serena Sterling’s hand this way, and they walked outside together.

Julian Lawson had been waiting for this moment.

The contract was signed.

The procedures were confirmed.

This was his sincerity.

He returned the things of the Sheridan Family to her.

Could she return the person he loved to him?

Watching Serena Sterling and Silas Hawthorne walking out together, speaking softly about something, they looked at ease with each other.

Julian Lawson controlled his wheelchair and followed.

In the long corridor, there were only a few of them.

Outside the window was a light blue sky with white clouds drifting.

The weather was nice.

Serena Sterling came to the elevator.

The elevator’s columns before her were polished brightly.

From the shiny surface, she could see Julian Lawson sitting in the wheelchair behind her, gazing at her with slightly red eyes.

Serena Sterling lowered her eyes slightly, without looking at him, and pressed the downward button of the elevator.

Behind her, just as Julian Lawson was about to open his mouth to call out to Serena Sterling, Jude Chaucer hurried over.

"Ding!"

The elevator door opened.

Serena Sterling and Silas Hawthorne walked into the elevator together, with Nova following and pressing the first floor.

On the other side, Jude Chaucer hurriedly said to Julian Lawson, "President Lawson, we just got the news that the incident in the hospital corridor that day has hidden truths."

Seeing Julian Lawson absent-minded, Jude Chaucer continued, "That day, it was Vera Hansen who used your hand, President Lawson, to push Miss Sheridan into a miscarriage!"

"What?" Julian Lawson didn’t immediately understand the meaning of Jude Chaucer’s words.

"This." Jude Chaucer quickly handed the tablet to Julian Lawson, allowing him to watch the snipped video from Leoric Nash’s live broadcast.

Julian Lawson glanced quickly at the final image of Vera Hansen holding onto his elbow, his eyes turning red.

So it was like this!

His heart was anxious.

Julian Lawson looked up, wanting to call out to Serena Sterling.

But when he looked up, he saw the elevator doors slowly closing.

"Serena!"

Julian Lawson called out.

But at that moment, the elevator doors shut completely, and the elevator number on the side began to change, indicating it was descending.

Inside the elevator.

Serena Sterling looked at the tightly closed elevator doors in front of her.

The elevator doors were polished brightly, reflecting their current figures.

Her face was calm, while Silas Hawthorne frowned, looking at her.

She knew that, like her, Silas Hawthorne also heard Julian Lawson’s call just now.

But she did not speak.

Silas Hawthorne also did not speak.

"Buzz buzz buzz..."

It was unclear whose phone was vibrating.

Serena Sterling glanced beside her and noticed that two phones were vibrating.

One belonged to Silas Hawthorne, and the other to Nova.

They both held their phones, looking at each other in confusion.

Serena Sterling glanced at it and saw Julian Lawson’s name displayed on Silas Hawthorne’s incoming call screen.

And on Nova’s phone screen, it displayed Jasper Ford as the caller.

Serena Sterling frowned slightly, wondering what was happening.

At that moment, Serena Sterling’s own phone started vibrating too.

She took out her phone and saw that it was Bianca Lynch calling.

She looked up and saw her own confusion reflected in Silas Hawthorne’s eyes.

The elevator sped down to the first floor.

On the other side, another elevator was also racing down to the first floor.

Inside were Julian Lawson and Jude Chaucer.

"Beep... beep..."

After Silas Hawthorne’s call was hung up, Julian Lawson dialed again, but it still didn’t connect.

In the other elevator.

Serena Sterling answered Bianca Lynch’s call.

"Bianca?" Serena said, "What’s the matter?"

"Serena, sob sob..." Bianca Lynch was crying, unable to catch her breath.

"Don’t cry, don’t cry." Serena was anxious, worried that something had happened to Bianca Lynch or Ethan Lynch.

She comforted, "What happened? Speak slowly, don’t panic, everything can be resolved."

"It’s not me, sob sob, Serena, it’s you." Bianca Lynch was heartbroken.

Even now, Serena was worried about her, still comforting her.

"Serena, what happened in the stairwell that day was no accident."

Bianca Lynch cried, "It was Vera Hansen."

"It was my fault." Bianca Lynch cried miserably, "I gave her the chance. I was so focused on the fight that I didn’t notice her using me to lure you to the stairwell, and then, and then..."

"Pushed you down the stairs."

Bianca Lynch’s sobs echoed distantly through the phone.

Serena stood there blankly.

Her whole body felt cold.

Her other hand instinctively protected her abdomen.

She hadn’t dared to recall what happened that day.

But now she was being told that everything was premeditated.

It wasn’t an accident.

It wasn’t a sudden incident.

It was because she wasn’t smart enough to protect the child.

She was foolish...

Beside her, Nova had also finished hearing what Jasper Ford had to say.

Now she looked up at Serena Sterling beside her.

"Buzz buzz buzz..."

Silas Hawthorne’s phone was still vibrating, as Julian Lawson continued to call.

Silas Hawthorne looked at Serena Sterling, hearing the words from Bianca Lynch as well.

And at that moment, he felt only heartache.

"Serena." He reached out, wanting to support her as she was about to collapse.

But before he could touch her, something had already dampened the back of his hand.

Silas Hawthorne paused slightly, lifting his eyes to see Serena Sterling’s tears.

"Serena..."

Silas Hawthorne’s nose turned slightly sour, and his eyes reddened, as he reached out to wipe away her tears.

But her tears couldn’t be wiped dry.

Her eyes were full of anguished tears, streaming down her face.

"Ding!"

The elevator reached the first floor.

The elevator door slowly opened.

Outside was a crowd of people moving busily.

It seemed like a different world.

Serena did not step out, standing there with her nails digging into her palms, blood spilling, and a boundless hatred sprouting in her heart.
