Chris felt protective of Serena and didn’t want to bring up old memories that might upset her.
‘Hey sis, these grilled shrimp are your favorite. Eat up,” Chris said warmly.
Serena smiled and lowered her head, eating with a graceful elegance that was easy on the eyes.
Things are getting more and more interesting,‘ Serena thought to herself.

The Ashford family was in chaos, and the Ellington family was in turmoil. Everything was falling into place perfectly. All had to do was keep the fire burning; she didn’t even have to get her hands dirty.
‘Chris, you should eat too. After we’re done, we’ll go see Jolie,” Serena said, planning to spend the afternoon with Jolie an have some fun together.
ust hearing Jolie’s name always put Chris in a good mood.
He had no idea what kind of game Jolie was playing and why she was set on teaching Leon a lesson herself.
After lunch, Chris drove Serena over to see Jolie.
olie had met up with her friends for some shopping that day. Afterward, her friends had to head back to work, leaving on Rosalia and Leon with her.
The three of them sat down at a café.
Leon was teasing Jolie, and she was playing along. He’d been trying to cheer her up these past few days.
These days, Leon couldn’t help but feel like Jolie had changed, yet somehow, she was still the same. She was just as nice to him, but she didn’t give him gifts anymore, and she wasn’t as glued to his side as she used to be.
Whenever she saw him, she was genuinely happy, but Leon just couldn’t shake the feeling that something was different about her. ‘I can’t quite put my finger on it,‘ Leon thought.
Rosalia, on the other hand, was having a tough time. She liked Leon too, but lately, she couldn’t understand why she felt thi
way.
Jolie and Leon always included Rosalia when they went out together.
It was hard for Rosalia to watch the two of them act so sweet together.
Leon had grown up with her, and she knew he’d always treat her well. But watching him and Jolie together still made her fee sad inside.
Leon was such an underachiever. After all these years, he still hadn’t managed to become the hospital director. If only he had some money, Rosalía could finally get out of this mess. They’d grown up together, and chere had always been feelings between them.
Rosalia and Jolie were classmates. After Rosalia found out Jolie’s family was loaded, she started talking Leon up in front of her, always saying Leon was just as handsome and capable as any of those elite heirs.
Jolie took a liking to Leon at first sight. With Jolie’s help over the years, things got a lot better for both of them.
But the pocket change she got just couldn’t satisfy her craving for status and luxury anymore.

If Leon could just score the director’s job at one of those hospitals, she could enjoy all the perks of wealth behind the scene:
She’d been fishing for a rich guy for years, but nobody ever really wanted her for real. Some just fooled around with her, an after a month or two, they’d kick her to the curb. She was totally fed up with this lifestyle.
Rosalia was always scheming, hoping Leon would finally settle down and tie the knot with Jolie. But after four years, nothin had changed between them.
“Jolie, here’s your favorite strawberry cake. Come on, have a bite,” Leon said, his smile soft as he offered her a forkful.
Jolie didn’t even think twice, and she opened her mouth and let him feed her.
She set her phone aside, grinning. “So good.”
“Want another?” Leon asked, pampering Jolie with all the patience in the world.
Jolie’s eyes curved into happy crescents as she opened her mouth. “Ah.”
