Chapter 254 They Are More Distant Than Strangers

Serena wiped her tears. Her voice was soft and thick with emotion. “Okay.”

Things like that weren’t rare, but deliberately making the driver skip picking her up. That hadn’t happened again.

She curled her lips into a mocking little smile in her mind. “Dad, the only one who really grew up with everything handed to her was Kyana.”

Donald had nothing to say.

Back when Serena was little, he’d barely done more than meet her material needs. Those were the years when the company was expanding like crazy, and he didn’t have the bandwidth to notice a little girl’s subtle feelings.

In his eyes, sending her to an elite school and making sure she never went without was already giving her the best life possible.

“Rena, you can’t put it that way. Your grandma didn’t have the means to give me this kind of life. At least for elementary school, you were in the priciest school in town,” he said.

“Yeah,” Serena said, picking up her spoon again and taking a bite of fish. “But didn’t I switch to a regular school in middle school?”

Donald was left speechless again.

She smirked a little. “Kyana was the one who went to elite schools for middle and high school, not me. Yvonne said back then that you were working so hard on your startup. The money should stay in the company, in your projects. No need to spend extra on something as small as my schooling. You forgot that?”

Donald was instantly pulled back over a decade.

Back then, the company had been strapped for cash for about six months. He ran around. trying to secure loans and investments. Yvonne had told him not to stress, that they could tighten the family’s spending a bit. That was why Serena’s school choice had been sacrificed.

He wanted to argue, to defend himself. “But… you still pulled through. No matter what school you went to, you got into a great college and even got in at the top of your program.”

“I’ve always done better than Kyana, and we both know it.” Serena did not downplay herself. “At least I didn’t have to buy my degree overseas just to polish my resume.“.

Donald felt heat crawl up his checks. Every word between them sounded like a quiet accusation, a reminder of how unfair he had been to her.

When appealing to family ties failed, he tried a different strategy. “Your grandma really adored you. Ever since you were little, she took your side in everything. Big or small. And every year, the cash gift she gave you was twice what Kyana got.”

Her eyes cooled. “And every time, didn’t you find some way to make it up to Kyana afterward? Anyway, I’ve been staying at the Steele Residence these past few days. Dad, I should head back there. If we keep replaying the past like this every day, I might start second–guessing my decision.”

He froze. “Second–guessing what?”

“Second–guessing letting you walk me down the aisle, my biased old dad,” she said lightly.
