Chapter 177: Chapter 177

"Don’t worry, mom, you’ve raised me for eighteen years; I won’t bite the hand that feeds me." Serena expressed her feelings once again with deep affection. Just then, Dr. Zoe came in. Serena immediately

pretended to be in pain, putting on a look of grievance as she complained to Louisa, even bringing up her childhood.

Hunter just got back and, seeing the scene, couldn’t help but ask, "What happened?"

"Bro, I accidentally took a tumble." Serena, supported by a servant, lay down on the sofa, looking pitiful.

"How did you fall?"

Before going over, Hunter put down the things he bought on the way in front of Rosemary and asked, "Do you like them?"

"Bro, you’re so unfair, Sis gets new stuff and I get nothing!" Serena pretended to be jealous, pouting and looking very affected.

"What haven’t you had before?" Hunter said, then added, "Besides, you can’t use this anyway."

What can’t she use?

Serena widened her eyes in surprise.

Rosemary opened the small gift box; it was a set of limited–edition lipsticks.

"Rose can use these at work; I heard a lot of girls are scrambling for this set."

He contacted the brand directly; they wanted to send him a few sets, but he refused and chose to buy it himself.

The gift he gave to his sister had a different meaning than the ones sent by the brand.

"Thank you, bro." Rosemary spoke softly.

Hearing the word "bro," Hunter felt even better; his eyes softened a bit. "If you need anything in the future, just let me know; I’ll buy it for you. At this time, Dr. Zoe finished checking Serena, finding only bruises and swelling, nothing serious."

But after all, she is a daughter of the Collins family, so he had to prescribe some medication for her,

"Ah, it hurts."

When the servant was applying the medicine to Serena, she would occasionally cry out in pain,frequently interrupting the conversation between the siblings.

Dr. Zoe didn’t know what to say; it’s just a bruise and swelling. Miss Collins was being so dramatic,screaming like this, that people would think she broke a bone.

Rosemary’s phone vibrated twice; it was Grandpa Beck calling: She stood up and said, "I’ll go upstairs first."

"Rose." Hunter wanted to chat with her a bit more, but seeing her leave, he seemed a bit unhappy.

What happened?

At this time, Martha hurriedly said, "Hunter, look at Serena; she keeps crying out in pain."

"Drama queen." Hunter gave her a displeased look and said, "Someone, help Serena upstairs to rest; let her know when dinner is ready."

"Bro, I’m not being a drama queen; it really hurts." Serena said it again in a coquettish manner.

"Grandpa Beck." Rosemary walked up the stairs, her voice soft. "How have you been?"

"Not good, not good at all! It’s been almost a month; you haven’t even called me! I’m sick of staying with those old geezers all day! Last time, Grandpa Alberto even bragged about having dinner with you!

Hmph, you didn’t even invite me! Left me out!"

"I’m telling you, in a few days, I’ll swing by your place too! You’re going to take me out to dinner, and I’ll eat even better than him. Then I’ll snap some photos to rub it in his face and show him that I’m living even better! Oh, by the way, the college entrance exam results are about to come out. I’ve got to say this now; you can’t consider other universities. Even if you want to check out other schools, you’ve got to remember me!"

Rosemary, smiling, said, "Sure thing."

Grandpa Beck rattled on for a bit more, then hung up the phone..

Serena; being helped into the room, placed a diamond bracelet into Martha’s hand and said, "I can’t wire money to Lily and Holly right now, and you can’t make it obvious. Find some people you trust and

let them transfer some cash to Holly and Lily’s accounts."

If it weren’t for their help today, her image would have been completely ruined!

"Remember, don’t leave any trace."

"Rest assured, Miss." Martha put away the bracelet, knowing that it was worth a hundred grand. She couldn’t help but ask, "So you mean, fifty grand each?" "Five grand is for you; the rest is split between

them. You fell and hurt yourself while helping me today. If it weren’t for you speaking up for me and making up a boyfriend on the spot, my mom looked like she was going to eat me alive!"

The more Serena thought about it, the more pissed she was. "She promised to treat me like her own, but when there was a conflict of interest with her own daughter, she didn’t hesitate to back her own! In

her eyes, I’m just an outsider!"

"Miss, the madam has already been very tolerant."

"And my brother, he bought a gift for Rosemary, but nothing for me!" Serena was livid. Nobody took her seriously. Why on earth did Rosemary have to come back? Why did she have to come back and cause her trouble?

"Actually, Serena, the boyfriend I made up for you, you could consider continuing to play boy friend and girlfriend with Mr. Cooper. That way, your parents wouldn’t be suspicious! And our plan can proceed

smoothly."

That’s exactly what Serena was thinking. Although Martin wasn’t her ideal guy, even if he was a bit annoying, at least he could act as a shield. If anything comes up in the future, she could get him to do it!

After a while, Serena took out her phone and messaged him.

He immediately called back, excited, "Serena, have you finally accepted my pursuit? You’re willing to be my girlfriend? Fantastic!!"

"It’s just a trial, not officially dating."

"Already giving me a chance–that’s enough to make me happy! Serena, can I come see you now? I have a lot to tell you!" Martin has liked her for six years, and he couldn’t wait to pamper her.

Seizing the opportunity, Serena hinted, "There’s a movie tonight; I heard it’s good."

"What’s the name? I’ll fly back immediately to take you."

Serena could hear him ordering plane tickets on the side; she couldn’t help but ask, "You’re abroad?"

"I accompanied my sister to Dawnstar for shopping and checked out our subsidiary here. Serena, do you like Dawnstar? When you’re free, I can show you the lavender fields here; they’re beautiful!"

"We’ll see." Serena told him the movie name and hung up.

By dinner time, Edith and Martha had upstairs to call the two young ladies for dinner. They glanced at each other, their eyes filled with dissatisfaction and disgust, quickly looking away.

"Sir, Madam, and the five young masters have been with Serena for 18 years; this deep bond can’t be replaced by a bit of blood."

As Martha went upstairs, her eyes fixed straight ahead and her tone arrogant.

Edith didn’t look at her; she looked ahead and coldly sneered, "Your injuries don’t hurt anymore? I thought this fall would knock some sense into you; I didn’t expect you to be even more stupid! If you

can’t say something smart, shut up. Don’t show off your ’intelligence here."
