At thirty–three, not even Bryce could convince Sebastian to settle down.

“What if we… just make it a done deal?”

Donald felt his pulse race. “Are you suggestin…”

Kyana’s cheeks flamed a deep shade of pink.

Sebastian’s wide shoulders, slim waist, and long, straight legs exuded undeniable masculinity.

The mere thought of being in his arms made Kyana’s face burn hotter.

When the seventh day arrived, she went into the kitchen to prepare fish and chips for Grandma, along with a plate of meatballs and a pot of pumpkin soup.

She had been simmering the soup from midday until dinner.

Sherry watched her, a mix of relief and pride on her face. “Ms. Steele, if Madam Morland could see how much effort you’ve put in, she would be deeply comforted.”

Serena took a few bites, then cleared the table and carried the dishes back to the kitchen.

“Rena, there’s an auction tomorrow. Come with me,” Yvonne said.

Serena shot her a cool glare. “Grandma just passed. I’m not interested in that kind of thing.”

Yvonne smiled gently. “You misunderstand me.

“There’s a bracelet being auctioned that would suit your grandma perfectly. If we bring it to her when we visit her at the cemetery, she would love it.”

Serena’s eyes narrowed slightly. “Fine. I’ll go.”

Inside, Yvonne’s expression lit up. Well, smart or not, it doesn’t matter–she is still falling right into my trap. This girl is easy to manipulate. Hit her soft spot, and she’s yours.

Back in her room, Serena went online to check the auction details.

She sent a message to a close friend: ‘Lucy, are you going? I want to bid on a bracelet for Grandma.
