Chapter 85

Author: Arlo Drake
"What was that all about earlier, then?" Wilson asked.

"I was looking out for you, not because I can't let go of Justin." Serena's eyes widened with urgency as she explained, "There will be trouble if you end up seriously hurting him. It's not worth it for someone like Justin."

Wilson leaned down slightly as he stepped closer to Serena, and she could only retreat until her back was pressed against the wall.

Wilson was tall, and with one hand pressed against the wall, he almost trapped her in his embrace.

The familiar, cool, woody scent lingered in the air between them, and all of Serena's nerves were on edge. She asked, "What are you doing, Mr. Quade?"

"Looking into your eyes to see if you are lying," Wilson replied.

"I'm not lying." Serena widened her eyes and stared straight into his. "Do you see my sincerity now?"

Wilson was rendered speechless. Serena stood rigidly before him with her hands and legs pressed against the wall. She looked like a child being made to stand in det

    Damian sat in his wheelchair and spoke calmly. "So, what's your plan now?""I'll finish handing over the work to you first. We'll talk after that." Justin paused for a moment before asking softly, "Damian, do you know where Lila went?"After she left, Lila changed her number and vanished completely from his life. Even if he wanted to reach out, he had no way of finding her.Damian's expression was unreadable. "Once you've officially handed over the Farrow Corporation to me, I'll tell you."…That afternoon, at Quade Group, Sebastian placed a folder on Wilson's desk. "Mr. Quade, here's Desiree's medical report." Wilson flipped through it. Desiree was completely paralyzed from the neck down. Damian really didn't hold back with that crash.He tossed the report aside, grabbed his suit jacket that was draped over the chair, and walked out. When he reached downstairs, Serena stood by the car in a white coat, waiting.Wilson walked over and naturally slid an arm around her waist. "Wh

    Behind Justin, Damian's assistant and bodyguards immediately dashed in and took control of the two men.Meanwhile, Justin checked Damian's arm. "Are you okay, Damian?"Damian jerked his arm away from him. "What are you doing here?""I'm worried that my mom will harm you—""If you can think of it, so can I." Damian didn't appreciate his help at all.After Jenna left today, he had asked his men to keep an eye on her. These two men were allowed into his ward on purpose so that he could get a hold of her.Wearing a stoic look, he said, "Most probably, Aunt Jenna came to visit me today to check whether I'm still alive or not. She isn't so kind to care about me for real.""As for you…" He turned to Justin. "Did you think that I'd stop my revenge just because you played this act?""It doesn't matter whether you believe me or not. I just need to have a clear conscience.""A clear conscience?" Damian chuckled.He didn't believe that Justin didn't hate him for what he had done to him.

    Justin's pupils shrank, and he grabbed Jenna's wrist to stop her from her hysterical behavior. "What do you mean by this? Did you really cause the deaths of Uncle Oscar and Aunt Rachel back then?""So what if it's me? So many years have passed since then. They're long dead, and there's no evidence anymore!"A cold light gleamed past Justin's eyes. "Did Grandma and Dad know about this?""Could I have pulled this off if they had known about it?" Jenna shoved him aside. "Your father is a pushover. He might disregard our relationship and hand me over to the police. "I don't regret doing this. My only regret is… letting Damian live back then! This is why problems have to be solved from the roots!"Gritting her teeth tightly, she pointed at Justin. "Get out of here! I forbid you to give up the CEO position of Farrow Corporation. Think of a way to get the company back, or I'm disowning you!"The look on Justin's face changed a little before he calmed down. "Fine, I'm leaving. But the d

    Justin extended his hand, and Zane passed a document into his hand from behind. "This is my resignation letter and the share transfer document. You may want to get a lawyer to review them. Farrow Corporation is yours after this."Damian took a glance at it and looked away. If all went well, this was probably a legit document. He could just ask someone to check out the authenticity of it. So, there was no need for Justin to come up with an extra move.Damian looked at Justin. "Can you bear to do this?""I can't," Justin replied solemnly. "But just as you said, if your parents were still alive, Farrow Corporation would have been yours. I sent someone to look up the accident back then; your parents' deaths were indeed suspicious."In other words, it was probably Jenna's doing; she caused Oscar's and Rachel's deaths, and that was how Farrow Corporation ended up in Anthony's hands. Then, Justin inherited it."Take it as compensation from me. Besides… you have what it takes to make Farr

    Damian croaked, "So, since we were young until now, you've always regarded me as a younger brother. All these years, haven't you ever developed any other ideas about me?""No," Serena answered.Her curt reply directly cut off any unrealistic ideas he had, and a shard of reluctance mixed with pain flashed in his eyes.The first time he saw her, he thought that she was as beautiful and gentle as an angel. As he grew older, this adoration gradually turned into an inexplicable emotion.He hated that Serena regarded him as a younger brother, but he enjoyed her claiming him as her brother. That was because he could use this identity to get closer to her.He closed his eyes slowly and opened them again. "Serena, are you happy now?""I'm very happy, Damian. After meeting Wilson, my heart started to heal for real. He's very special to me, and I'm sure of my love for him. Besides him, I won't fall for another man ever again. Will you give me your blessing?"This was a cruel request. After

    "Mr. Quade and Ms. Judd, somebody is here," Sebastian informed in a low voice suddenly.Serena turned around and saw Justin walking in briskly with his men.Out of reflex, she said, "Damian isn't doing well now. Now is not the time to come looking for him due to your personal problems with each other. Furthermore… your family did him wrong first."Damian saved her, and she had to be on his side at a time like this.Justin looked a little somber. "In your eyes, am I a person who takes advantage of others while they're down?" he snapped."Aren't you?"Holding back his anger, he explained, "I'm here to visit Damian. How's he doing?""He's now out of critical condition."Just then, Damian's assistant walked out of the ward, and Justin stepped forward. "How's Damian doing?""He already woke up.""I would like to see him."The assistant hesitated. "Mr. Damian wants to see Ms. Judd.""I'm coming." Serena walked over, and Wilson trailed after her.The assistant wanted to stop him.

    Desiree gripped the steering wheel tightly, trying to gain control of her anger and leave. Just then, she saw Serena chatting happily with a wealthy housewife outside her patisserie. Then, Serena strolled to the sidewall before picking up a call, and the smile on her face widened.Desiree had a hunch that it was Wilson on the phone, and she couldn't watch this scene anymore. Otherwise, she'd lose her mind.Desiree started the engine and wanted to leave, but Serena's face, with a brilliant smile, flashed through her mind, and her heart was filled with intense unwillingness.How could Serena live such a good life? No, she wouldn't allow it!Desiree turned the wheel, and the car changed direction all of a sudden, speeding toward Serena.Meanwhile, Serena was on a call on the sidewalk when she suddenly heard the loud roar of an engine.Turning to the source, she saw a white Maserati charging toward her at a high speed and Desiree's face, which was twisted into a terrifying scowl, t

    Suddenly, a soft smile spread across Serena's face. "It's very attractive."There was no way she'd admit that she had thrown up out of fear at that time.Desiree was here to throw her off, but two could play the game.Serena added, "Wilson's life was tough in the past. He had to make his way up from the lowest level with many obstacles in his way. "Even if his hands were stained with blood, I believe he had his reasons for doing it. Moreover, I think he's really sexy and attractive like that. I love it."Desiree chuckled in exasperation. "Are you sick in your mind, Serena Judd? Do you think that he's sexy?""Of course, I do. If he's not attractive, why do you keep trying to snatch him from me?" Serena wore a look of disdain. "Are you trying to scare me away because you couldn't snatch him from me? I'm sorry, but I'll have to disappoint you."I'll never leave him, and you can keep feeling disgruntled in your dark corner. Desiree Stone, you'll remain in a dark corner for the re

    Back then, Robert favored his second son, Oscar, more. As fate would have it, Damian's parents died in an accident, leaving Damian orphaned at a young age.As it turned out, their deaths weren't an accident.Serena said calmly, "I don't know the details, but this is a personal feud of your family. I'm in no position to comment.""But I want to know what you think." Damian lowered his voice. "Serena, I don't care about anyone else, but I care about your opinion. Do you think that I'm ruthless and cold-blooded? Are you repelled and terrified of me like this?"Serena was smart enough to figure out that he was showing his interest in her by saying this.Calmly, she answered, "Damian, you've always been a little brother to me. As long as you treat me the same as you always did, our relationship will remain the same. "As for what you did to Justin's family, that's between you all. I'm not going to interfere."Damian was quiet for a while. "Am I only a younger brother to you?""Yes,
