Unwilling Trophy Wife (Serena and Victor) novel Chapter 314

Chapter 314

Serena didn’t seem the least bit worried about Keith’s feelings for her. Watching from the sidelines, Chloe couldn’t help but feel that all her efforts were starting to look a little ridiculous.

But after spending time around them, she had to admit that Serena and Keith had a strong bond. Solid enough to carry that kind of trust. No matter what she did, or how hard she tried, she couldn’t shake the foundation between them.

Everything I’ve done has been pointless,‘ she realized.

“I’m heading over to Brannon Creative Group tomorrow to pick up my

stuff.

I’ll probably arrive at the studio in the afternoon,” Chloe said.

She stood up awkwardly. “Guess we’re coworkers now. Hope you can

act

like a professional on the job.”

Without waiting for a reply, she turned and headed upstairs. Serena didn’t take it personally. She knew Chloe’s harsh words weren’t always about being hurtful. More often, they were just armor, her way of protecting herself.

The next day, Chloe packed up her things from the design department. Graham happened to be heading out at the same time and asked where she was going.

“Studio Delune. Ever heard of it?” she replied casually.

The moment he heard the name, Graham’s expression shifted. “You’re going to work for Serena?”

That was when it–clicked for Chloe that Serena had worked at Brannon Creative Group. Of course, Graham knew her.

‘So that’s it. Someone at the company’s been leaking everything to Serena. I knew it,‘ she thought.

“Yeah, I’ll be working with her from now on,” Chloe said, not bothering to explain further.

Graham was surprised. He’d always assumed Serena and Chloe didn’t get along. “Well, I haven’t seen Serena in ages. I’ll give you a ride and drop by while I’m at it.”

So he brought Chloe to the studio.

Serena had already been told they were coming and stepped out to greet them. “Long time no see!”

Graham smiled as he looked at her. She looked healthier and happier, like life outside the company suited her.

As much as he hated losing a great teammate, seeing Serena pursue her own dream made him genuinely happy.

“But I’ve got to ask,” Graham said, glancing between the two, “you and Chloe–how did you end up getting so close? Don’t tell me you met through Mr. Brannon.”

‘Close?‘ Chloe almost choked. ‘What part of this looks like a close friendship to you?‘

Then it hit her. ‘Wait a second. The people at Brannon Creative Group… they don’t know Serena and Keith are together?‘

“You don’t know that Serena and Keith are-

Before she could finish the sentence, Serena grabbed her wrist and gently pulled her behind.

“She was about to say what?” Graham asked, eyebrows raised.

Serena smiled sweetly. “Nothing important. It’s been a while since we caught up. But things are busy here today, so I won’t keep you. Let’s

plan a proper lunch soon.”

Graham still looked curious, but he picked up on her tone and decided to drop it. He wasn’t the type to push when someone clearly didn 1 want to talk. “Alright, sounds good. I’ll leave her in your capable hands. Hope the two of you work well together.”

Once Graham left, Chloe turned to Serena, frowning. “You and Keith are officially dating, so why hide it? Why keep things so secretive, like some underground affair?”
