Chapter 1379

“Something wrong? I'm just outside. I could take him to the hospital to get checked out,” Romeo offered

with concern.

"No need, I'll have Uncle Bard drive him later. Have you arrived?" Arabella whispered back, ‘Wait for

me a moment."

“Alright.

Arabella hung up the phone and glanced at Serena, preparing to leave.

“Arabella!” Serena suddenly called out, unable to hold back her question, "If Romeo wasn't in the

picture, would you be friends with me?"

Arabella stopped in her tracks and gave her a cold look, "You should ask yourself, from the first day I

returned to this house, did you ever consider being friends with me?"

Initially, Serena was full of hostility towards her.

And as time went on, her animosity only intensified.

"How many times have you schemed behind my back? I can't be bothered with you. First, I think it's a

waste of time and unnecessary. Second, I look down on your petty tactics. Third, my life is more than

just these trivial matters. Why waste your years on me? Find something you're passionate about, love

someone who truly loves you, and strive to better yourself. Isn't that much more worthwhile than sitting

here, wracking your brain with jealousy and envy?"

Serena stood rooted to the spot, watching Arabella's retreating figure, perhaps understanding why

everyone liked her.

It was like a moment ago, she despised Arabella so fiercely, but now, the hatred seemed to have

lessened.

After Arabella left the parlor, Eunice stepped out from the corner where she had overheard the entire

conversation crystal clear. She hadn't expected Serena, who always appeared so sunny and upbeat, to

have so many cunning thoughts behind her back.

It seemed she was just afraid of not being able to stay in this family, causing her to make mistakes.

As for Arabella's magnanimity and vision, it made Eunice see her in a new light, improving her

impression significantly.

Eunice walked to the doorway of the parlor, leaning casually against the frame, and called out,

“Serena."

Serena, still in a daze from the earlier conversation, was startled to see her aunt and quickly said, ‘Aunt

Eunice, what are you doing here?"

“Just passing by, and I overheard you and your sister." Eunice began.

Serena's face instantly paled, “Aunt Eunice, let me explain."

“l'll understand the situation well enough. Bella is right. Nobody in this family sees you as an outsider,

but you're not allowed to pull any more tricks behind people's backs."

Even though Eunice didn't know the specifics of what Serena had done, Arabella’s words were proof

enough that Serena had been up to no good in the past.

“Aunt Eunice, I was foolish before. It won't happen again." Serena was worried about leaving a bad

impression on her aunt.

"Can you promise me you'll change?" Eunice looked into her eyes seriously, “Look me in the eyes and

tell me."

Serena bit her lip and nodded, “I can."

“Then I'll trust you this time,’ Eunice declared confidently, "You should count yourself lucky to have a

generous sister like Bella. If you had to deal with someone more conniving, you'd really suffer."

Serena's gaze fell slightly.

"You're not uncomfortable with me praising her, right?"

Serena shook her head quickly.

“People like her because she's honest, brave, kind, unpretentious, intelligent, composed, capable, and

she doesn't show off." Eunice continued, then turned to Serena, “But you, when did you become so

sensitive?"
