Serena lowered her head and took a sip of water. The polished tabletop reflected her stunning features.
After finishing her water, she took a sip of milk.
Then she said, “Now that Louisa’s left, Beatrice won’t meddle too much. Louisa can survive.”
Lyra stayed silent. She thought, ‘Women who don’t respect themselves? Serves them right.’
“By the way, any news about Mrs. Brett’s daughter? And the director still hasn’t returned. Where is she performing now?” Serena asked. It was a pressing matter.
Winter had already arrived, and the spring collection needed to hit the shelves.
Serena had already mapped out two plans. One was for online sales, and one for brick–and–mortar stores.
Her design team was solid. Every designer had real experience.
With the Kismet Bar mess handled and the clothing line sorted, Serena set her sights on the rest of the businesses. She was going to reshuffle everything, one step at a time, until everyone in Cloudmere Group was loyal to her.
She’d deal with any shareholder who thought they could take over Cloudmere Group, one by one.
They were pushing her to the edge, just because she was the heir.
To them, a woman could never be fit for the job.
Lyra smiled, “Serena, I’ve already reached out to the director. I told them to let me know the moment they’re back. They’ll be here in three days.”
Serena nodded and passed the news along to Kendall.
Kendall: [Thank you, Ms. Hale!]
Meanwhile, to keep the Lennox family from discovering that Eliana was her daughter, Beatrice arranged for Eliana and Cassie to settle into a luxurious apartment together.
She was also worried that if she overplayed her hand, Dylan might realize they were mother and daughter.
Eliana felt the same way. Living in the upscale apartment, she felt freer and more comfortable than she ever had with the Ashford family.
Just being able to live with her daughter was enough to make her truly happy.
As for Jasper, to keep him working for her, she wired him 30 grand last night.
That was enough to make him drop whatever plans he had for now.
Jasper only cared about the cash, and he’d forget about everything else when he got money.
Once everything was settled, Beatrice looked around the spacious, well–lit apartment and finally let out a sigh of relief.

She glanced over at Cassie, who was happily playing, and smiled, “There’s nothing like your own flesh and blood. I just feel this inexplicable bond with her.”
As a mother, Eliana adored her daughter. Cassie was just so sweet and thoughtful. “Mom, she’s still so young. She forgets things quickly. Last night, I gave her lots of presents.
“She looked for that woman for a while, but then she got distracted and stopped asking.”
Beatrice smiled, her eyes full of affection as she looked at her granddaughter, “You need to treat Cassie well. Don’t lose your temper and take it out on her as you did with Liam.”
Eliana, dressed in a long dress that suited her well, let out a wry laugh. “Liam was an ungrateful little wolf. I’d never treat my daughter like that. I’ll make sure she grows up loved and cherished.”
