Sera darted Yumi a mysterious and subtle glance before leaving with a smile.

At this very moment, she did not feel as suffocated or stifled anymore. Even her footsteps had become feather-light.

Yumi s hand moved to her red lips, a poisonous sneer brimming from her eyes.

"Oh, Angeline. Even if Sera fails, I'm sure that your body won't be able to withstand the pressure over and over again, right? When you're finally blind and deaf, I'm curious to see how you're planning to run Grand Asia?

"What you've seized from me, I will make sure you pay it back with interest."

The next day.

Sera appeared in Chrysoprase Villa, Imperial Capital.

Chrysoprase Villa was another villa that Angeline had prepared for the Ares family. Although it was not as big as Tourmaline Estate, it was more than enough for the Ares family to live safely and in peace.

Perhaps it was because of the loss of their grandson or perhaps the Ares family had learned their lesson, so they had been keeping a low profile in the past few

years as to not attract Doomsday Organization's attention.

Apart from a few young grandchildren who were out there managing Ares Films, the elders were practically living in seclusion while making very minimal social contact all year round. Sera's arrival had sparked a debate over at the first wife's family.

When someone came to report it to Jack and his wife, Jack's complexion darkened at once. 1

"Does she think that the Ares' residence is a place where she can come and go as she likes?"

Madam Ares' complexion dimmed. Feeling hard-pressed and in distress, she consoled Jack and said," Why don't we meet her and find out why she's really here, Old Master Ares?"

Jack glared at Madam Ares viciously. "I know what you're thinking about. Perhaps I should remind you that she's your daughter and you're the mistress of the Ares family. If you collude with her and do something harmful to others, then you'll only be ruining the Ares family's reputation. If that happens, I don't care whether you're my wife or not. I'll drive you out of the Ares family either way."

Madam Ares shuddered a little, then looked a little mad. "I've been with you for so many years, Old Master Ares, and yet you can't tell where my loyalty lies?"

Jack snorted coldly. "I trust you, but I don't trust Sera.

She's full of bad ideas and I'm afraid that she will lead you by the nose."

Madam Ares replied, "I won't be influenced."

Jack glanced at Madam Ares and sighed heavily." Fine, go and see her, then come back quickly."

Madam Ares looked delighted. "Okay."

Madam Ares met up with Sera at the outdoor pavilion.

Sera looked haggard and scrawny. The moment she saw Madam Ares, her eyes turned pink at once. She looked as though she had suffered a lot of grievances. She embraced Madam Ares and started bawling her eyes out.

"Madam Ares."

There was no denying that Sera was her daughter.

Hence, when she heard Sera's heartbreaking cries, Madam Ares felt like a knife was being twisted in her heart.

"What's wrong, Sera?"

"Life is hard, Madam Ares."

As though an ice current had washed across every part of her body, Madam Ares felt very much tormented.

"Why don't you sit down and slowly talk me through it?"

With her face covered in tears, Sera started giving a recount of her life in the Severe family in the past

three years.

"I didn't know better back then and went against your advice to leave the Ares family. Initially, I thought that my parents would accept me regardless of what I've done in the past because they're my birth family after all, yet who would've thought..."

Sera sobbed. "My father has been treating me indifferently since then, whereas my mother speaks to me harshly every day. Now that Angeline is Grand Asia's president, everyone in the Severe family is at her beck and call. As Angeline is angry at me for loving Jay, she does everything possible to make things difficult for me. I can't stay in that house anymore."

Madam Ares was furious. She slammed the coffee table and stood up. "As the president of Grand Asia, how can Angeline be so narrow-minded? What a bitter disappointment compared to JJ."

With a thud, Sera fell to her knees and started pleading with Madam Ares piteously. "I know you care for me, Madam Ares. Please, please help me."

How could Madam Ares not feel heartbroken when she saw the tears streaming down Sera's face? This was her biological daughter!
