Unwilling Trophy Wife (Serena and Victor) novel Chapter 297

Chapter 297

Keith owned more than a few apartments around town. James instantly caught on to what Keith said. Without missing a beat, he pressed down on the gas and took off at the fastest speed the law would allow.

He definitely wasn’t about to play third wheel for his boss tonight.

Before long, they arrived at the nearest apartment. James didn’t say a word–he just left the keys in the car and quietly slipped away, leaving Keith to sweep Serena straight out of the passenger seat and into his arms.

Carrying her upstairs, Keith kept his steps steady. Serena could practically hear his heartbeat thundering in her ears, each beat growing louder and more intense as they got closer to the door.

As soon as he unlocked the door, he pinned her against the wall and kissed her hard.

Serena was desperate for air, but at that moment, it felt like the only thing keeping her upright was Keith’s arms around her. Without him, she might have melted right to the floor.

“Serena, I love you,” Keith whispered.

At that moment, words couldn’t compare to the feelings between them. Serena nodded gently, her careful response a silent promise. It was her way of saying yes without a single word.

Then, they had a thrilling and sweet night.

When Serena opened her eyes the next morning, she was still a little dazed. Staring up at the unfamiliar ceiling, she immediately

noticed the dull ache in her back and waist.

There was a glass of milk on the nightstand. Serena propped herself up, feeling like her whole body was about to fall apart. As she sat up, memories of last night rushed back to her all at once.

Instantly, she felt the blush creeping up to the tips of her ears.

Tucked under the glass of milk was a note. Serena took a steadying breath before sliding it out–Keith had left her a message.

There was some emergency at Brannon Creative Group, so Keith had to leave for the office early, but he made sure to remind her to eat breakfast when she got up.

Serena felt a gentle warmth bloom in her heart. Biting her lip with a shy smile, she got up, washed up, and hurried through

breakfast.

By the time she made it to the studio, she was already running an hour and a half late.

“Hey, where have you been?” came Lana’s teasing voice from the side.

Serena’s cheeks instantly turned crimson. Lana had just tossed out the question without thinking, but seeing Serena’s reac she quickly covered her mouth, trying to stifle a laugh.

“Wait, don’t tell me you two actually got up to something thrilling last night,” Lana teased.

Chapter 297

She’d honestly thought that after she left yesterday, Serena and Keith would just go to sleep. Turned out, they really did go to “sleep” together.

Understanding the situation, Lana just shot Serena a knowing look and raised her eyebrows, grinning, “Honestly, this is great. You and Keith should just make it official.

“Soon, my

bestie will be a CEO’s wife. Think I can get some benefits, huh?”

Serena couldn’t help but giggle. “Come on, you’re already a CEO yourself. If anything, I should be the one hoping to catch some of your luck.”

Lana Nicole and Serena shared a knowing smile, and that was when Lana spotted the diamond ring on Serena’s finger.

Lana couldn’t help but click her tongue. “Damn, Keith is really loaded. Even the ring is so extravagant.”

Serena suddenly remembered the ring, glanced down at it, and figured she’d better put it away for now.

Wearing such a massive diamond ring out in public was just asking for attention, especially since she and Keith hadn’t even announced their relationship yet.

‘I’ll save it for when the time is right,’ Serena thought.

Just as Serena put the ring away, a loud commotion erupted outside. Her brows furrowed in concern as she wondered, ‘Oh no, is someone here to stir up trouble again?‘

As soon as Serena and Lana stepped out of the office, Serena spotted a few familiar faces right away.

“Graham, what brings you guys here?” Serena asked, genuinely surprised.

She quickly waved them over and had everyone take a seat.
