If you need to see him, you can go directly to the office."Mira's eyes turned red.He couldn't even enter his villa, while that woman enjoyed his tenderness inside.Why?Suppressing the almost bursting emotions, she drove to Infinity Realm and directly barged into the top-floor office.It was 9 p.m., and there were still many people working on the top floor.Everyone saw a beautiful woman standing in front of Matthew's door, pushing it open without hesitation.*Bang*Matthew was currently focused on something, and upon seeing the woman entering, he furrowed his brows.Mira calmly closed the door and turned around.

Serena didn't care about online opinions, but she definitely wouldn't withdraw the lawyer's letter she sent to those media.As long as they dared to continue rumors, she would definitely make these media pay.However, early the next morning, miraculously, all the media kept quiet and did not report on the matter again.Although there were still discussions among netizens, those comments were all well-intentioned, except for Samantha, who became the target of ridicule.Serena sighed in relief, and when she heard her phone ringing, she didn't want to answer. It was probably Ethan calling about cooperation.She felt a bit annoyed, so she directly hung up the phone, went to the bathroom for a quick wash, and then headed downstairs.Matthew was elegantly having breakfast downstairs, with a cup of coffee in front of him.Serena didn't greet him.Even when their relationship was at its worst, she used to say "Good morning" during breakfast.But now, she couldn't be bothered to maintain even

In the evening, ever since she saw that news, Serena's mind was uncontrollable. She let the stylist dress her up, dragging the process, as she had no desire to attend.It wasn't until 8 PM when the banquet had already begun that she sluggishly arrived at the venue.Upon reaching the venue and revealing her face, she found a secluded spot to hide.Matthew hadn't arrived yet, and she didn't want to witness the commotion his entrance would create.Compared to the bustling hall, the backyard was noticeably quiet.Serena breathed a sigh of relief as she sat on the swing, lost in thought.The dim yellow lights in this area made it unlikely for anyone to notice her if she stayed in the shadows.fter sitting for a while, she saw a man and a woman approaching.The man pinned the woman against the wall, and his hands roamed freely, igniting flames in various places.Even at a distance, Serena could hear the woman's voice, melodious like a warbler, each sound enchanting, as if trying to captivat
