Forced to Marry the Sickly Billionaire
Chapter 126: Welcome the Young Miss!

Chapter 126: Chapter 126: Welcome the Young Miss!

Sylvia Lane lowered her eyes, silently despising herself.

Serena Summers is just a young girl whose hair hasn’t fully grown yet.

Her body hasn’t even fully developed yet.

How could Brother Lucas possibly like a girl like that?

Sylvia Lane glanced at her exquisitely curvy figure, her lips curling up in satisfaction.

It’s mature and elegant women like her, with all their allure, who are fatally attractive to men.

She is even more charming now than she was three years ago, and her figure is more perfect.

She can’t believe that there could be a man in the world who could resist her seduction!

A determined glint flickered in Sylvia Lane’s eyes.

Serena Summers is completely unaware that Sylvia Lane is coveting her husband.

She hurriedly left the Shaw Mansion.

She has important things to do today and no time to deal with Sylvia Lane.

Sister Green asked with concern, "Young Madam, are you going out? Do you need me to arrange for the driver to take you?"

"No need, I’ll be back soon."

With those words, she left without looking back.

Sister Green wanted to say more, but the words never made it as the person was already gone.

She shook her head helplessly and turned back to her room.

Half an hour later, Serena Summers arrived at the Horizon Group headquarters building.

Looking up at the tall building, she couldn’t help feeling nervous.

It had been two or three months since she last visited this place.

But today, she had to come.

Lucas Shaw’s illness couldn’t be delayed any longer.

After much thought, she decided to personally seek Edward Selwyn for those specific medicines.

Thinking about the impending storm, Serena Summers took a deep breath.

Long after, she finally calmed herself and walked toward the company interior.

The moment they saw her, everyone couldn’t help but pause.

Amazement shone in their eyes.

"Mi-, Miss? You’ve finally appeared!"

"Hello," Serena Summers smiled politely, greeting the employees.

"Welcome, Miss!"

"Miss, long time no see!"

"Miss, why haven’t you visited for so long? Our CEO has been looking pale these past months; we’ve been having a tough time lately..."

The employees poured out their grievances.

Serena Summers laughed lightly.

"Is the Chief here? In the office?"

"Yes!"

Serena Summers nodded and walked toward the CEO’s exclusive elevator.

After Serena Summers left, many people started talking.

New employees who hadn’t seen Serena Summers were curious, asking, "Who is that girl who can use the CEO’s exclusive elevator?"

An old employee explained mysteriously, "You’re new here, so naturally, you don’t know. She is the Horizon Group’s young miss."

"I haven’t heard that our CEO has a sister!" the newcomer scratched his head, puzzled.

The old employee patted his shoulder, saying, "There’s a lot you haven’t heard! Do you know why our cosmetic brand under the company is so popular?"

"Why?" the newcomer asked eagerly.

In unison, the old employees said, "The most popular and effective skincare and makeup products on the market are all personally developed by our Miss."

"Not only that, but our Miss is also the second-largest shareholder of the Horizon Group," someone added.

Many gasped in astonishment, their eyes filled with surprise and shock.

The hottest business ventures under Horizon Group are in media and cosmetics.

The cosmetics brand has expanded the renown of local brands globally.

To say they are popular worldwide wouldn’t be an exaggeration.

These products were developed by a young girl?

How is that possible?

Many newcomers expressed disbelief.

The old employees shook their heads one after another.

They didn’t believe it before either.

But Serena Summers convinced them with her ability.

Forcing them to believe and to acknowledge her.

Serena Summers was unaware that she was being discussed.

As she approached the president’s office, her heart uncontrollably fluttered.

The hand she had raised fell back down.

Serena Summers felt uneasy, even unsure of how to face Edward Selwyn.

Although Edward Selwyn seemed gentle on the surface, he was colder than anyone else at heart.

Sometimes when he got angry, Serena Summers felt scared.

While Serena Summers hesitated outside the door, it suddenly opened from the inside.

"Miss?"

Assistant Young was taken aback, then nodded respectfully.

His tone was filled with surprise.

The people inside the office looked up upon hearing this.

Now that she was discovered, there was no need for Serena Summers to hide anymore.

She touched her nose and stepped inside.

"Big Senior Brother."

"Why do you have time to visit me? Aren’t you very busy?" Edward Selwyn gave Serena Summers a cold glance.

Serena Summers, grinning, walked up to Edward Selwyn and, pulling at his sleeve, cooed, "No matter how busy, I can’t forget about Big Senior Brother!"

Edward Selwyn was pleased by her demeanor, his lips slightly curving upward.

"Speak, what are you here for?" he huffed softly.

"Can’t I visit Big Senior Brother without reason?" Serena Summers blinked her clear and innocent big eyes.

Her bright eyes seemed to be filled with tiny, shimmering stars—enchanting and brilliant.

Unbelievably beautiful.

It made it impossible for anyone to be harsh.

Edward Selwyn’s heart softened a bit.

But his expression still maintained a cold demeanor.

"Stop it! Don’t I know you well? Speak, what is it?"

Serena Summers slightly curved her lips, handing a document over to Edward Selwyn, "Big Senior Brother, take a look at this."

"What is this?"

Edward Selwyn opened it curiously.

The deeper he read, the brighter the light in his eyes became.

"In just two months, you’ve developed a new product?" Disbelief filled Edward Selwyn’s eyes.

Serena Summers raised her chin proudly, "Of course, don’t you see who my senior brother is!"

"Smart mouth." Edward Selwyn helplessly raised his finger and flicked Serena Summers’s forehead.

Serena Summers clutched her forehead in pain, her eyes looking up at Edward Selwyn filled with a hint of reproach.

"Big Senior Brother!"

"Alright, alright, I’ll stop teasing you. Speak, what reward do you want?" Edward Selwyn put away the document, his face filled with a smile.

Serena Summers asked expectantly, "Can I choose any reward?"

Edward Selwyn pondered for a moment, "Of course, as long as it’s within my power."

A sly look flickered in Serena Summers’s eyes, "I want the few herbs you’ve collected! Big Senior Brother, you promised me, and you can’t go back on your word. Whoever does is a puppy!"

The smile on Edward Selwyn’s face froze for a brief moment, his dark cold eyes slightly narrowing, "What? You want those herbs?"

Serena Summers was startled by the iciness in his eyes, involuntarily shrinking her neck, "No, is that not okay?"

Edward Selwyn pressed his lips together in silence for a long while, then spoke, "Are you asking for Lucas Shaw, right?"

Serena Summers bit her lower lip, without answering.

But Edward Selwyn already knew the answer.

Looking at Serena Summers’s charming cheeks, a trace of thin anger arose in his heart.

"Serena Summers, do you know how much effort I put into gathering those herbs?"

"I know."

"Then do you know how important they are to you?"

"...I know."
