"Maria, pack your things. We're moving in a few days."
"Moving? Why in the world are we moving?"
"I'm taking you and my mom to live in a much bigger place."
"A bigger place? Where are we going to find a bigger place right now?"
"The Serenity Estate."
The Serenity Estate was the massive, 2,000-square-foot luxury condo Marcus Evans had secretly purchased in Jocelyn's name.
It was fully furnished with four bedrooms, more than enough space for the three of them.
Marcus had bought it quietly, hiding it entirely from Diana, and since it was out in the South Hills, Diana had absolutely no clue it existed.
"But Miss Jocelyn, aren't you going to work at Mr. Vance's company? If we move all the way out to the South Hills, your commute is going to be terrible. It's so much more convenient here."
Jocelyn looked over at Sylvia, a warm smile spreading across her face.
"It's just a little extra driving. It really won't be that bad."
"Besides, Julian already bought land out there. Vanguard Tech is expanding its R&D center to the South Hills, so it's actually going to work out perfectly."
Maria thought about it for a second.
"That's true. And if we move, we won't have to deal with that Lowell guy showing up uninvited all the time."
Jocelyn chuckled.
Maria had officially downgraded Adrian from 'Mr. Lowell' to 'that Lowell guy'.
It was only then that both women realized they had completely ignored their guest.
Julian was still standing quietly off to the side, not making a sound.
Jocelyn couldn't help but laugh.
"Why are you being so quiet? I completely forgot you were still here."
Julian offered a faint smile.
"It's late. You all need to get some rest. I'm heading out."
Jocelyn walked him to the door.
"Julian."
He paused. "Yeah?"
Jocelyn hesitated for a second.
"Thank you for everything these past couple of days. I know I dragged you through hell."
