Serena thought it was such a coincidence. Her smile was awkward and a bit forced. She hadn’t meant to overhear anything.

She was just walking by, really, not on purpose. Anyway, she just happened to catch what was said.

Eliana said, and her voice dripped with bitterness, “Stella, seeing me like this, does it make you feel smug? Everything that’s happened to me is because of you.”

Serena wasn’t about to shoulder the blame. She rolled her eyes. “Eliana, seriously, do you have some kind of persecution complex?

“How many times have you tried to mess me up? Don’t pretend you don’t know. You brought this on yourself. Stop always pointing fingers at others and maybe take a look in the mirror for once.

“If you were so scared, you shouldn’t have lied to Dylan from the start. Since you did, you should’ve been ready to deal with the fallout.

“Even if I hadn’t called you out, did you really think your lies could last forever? You think you can hide your liver issues and your illness for life?”

Serena walked back to where Chris was waiting for her. She smiled and asked, “Is Jolie coming tonight?”

Chris nodded with a smile. “She should be. She and Leon still haven’t sorted things out. She told me to wait a bit. She wants to handle it herself.”

Serena took Chris into Hall One to meet with some key business partners. Half an hour later, they finally stepped out.

Dylan and Spencer were having drinks together, their outstanding presence making them stand out in the crowd.

Serena and Chris returned others‘ greetings politely.
