Serena looked at Deanna and said, “I can’t accept an engagement without love, and I also can’t live in a marriage where we treat each other like strangers. Don’t you think I should leave him?”

It was a question that came straight from the soul. Deanna’s lips parted slightly, but it only turned into a sigh.

“This is Trevor’s fault. You didn’t do anything wrong, Rena. It was I who didn’t raise my son well.” Deanna squeezed her hand. “However, can you give us a little more time? Grandpa is getting on in years, and I’m afraid he won’t be able to take the shock. How about this? Why don’t you guys go through with the wedding ceremony instead of registering the marriage? After that, you can tell him that you and Trevor aren’t suitable for each other. Would that be alright?”

Serena’s gaze turned cold at her words. “That wouldn’t be appropriate for me to do so. Once the ceremony is done, everyone will assume that I’m already married. Do you really think that this is good for my reputation, Mrs. Levine?”

Deanna fell silent.

“I’ll give you five more days,” Serena said. “You can think about how to explain this to Grandpa. Otherwise, I won’t appear at the wedding.” Then, she stood up. “I still have other things to do. Please help me tell Grandpa that I’ll be leaving first.”

She had done all she could. This was already the most dignified way she could handle it.

On the other hand, Trevor searched for a long time but couldn’t find any box. Frustrated, he went downstairs, only to see his mother alone.

“Where is she?”

Deanna shot him a vicious glare and said, “Your wife ran off with someone else. Are you satisfied now?”

Serena had driven over today precisely so that if anything awkward happened, she could leave at any time. As her car pulled out of the Levine Residence, she suddenly remembered that she had wanted to ask Sebastian about the contract.

Call it taking a shortcut if others like–she simply wanted a fair and equal chance at competition.

Then, she pulled over to the side of the road, unlocked her phone, and tapped on Sebastian’s contact.

Uncle Sebastian, are you staying there tonight?‘

Initially, Serena thought Sebastian wouldn’t reply so quickly. However, to her surprise, Sebastian replied almost instantaneously.

‘Why? Are you waiting for me to leave?”

Staring at the text, Serena could feel herself blushing.

Though Sebastian always looked so upright, she felt like he was teasing her whenever she chatted with him. She didn’t know if it was just her imagination, but there was always this faint, elusive sense of flirtation.

Sitting in the car, unable to see him, Serena unconsciously straightened her posture.

‘I’ve already left. If it’s convenient for you, I’ll wait at the intersection.

Waiting was tormenting. After a full minute, the other side finally replied with a single word.

“Okay.”

In the study room, Sebastian rubbed the screen lightly with his thumb with a smile. Then, he stood up and said casually, “Dad, Nathan, I have something to take care of. I’ll be heading out first.”

Hearing his words, the duo looked at him in surprise.

“Didn’t you say you would stay tonight?” Bryce asked.
