Chapter 37: What the man left behind
Well, she was thinking too much.
Serena curled her lips, “If there’s nothing else, I’m going out.”
Cristian did not speak, and Serena walked out of the office.
After she left the office, Serena felt so ridiculous.
How could she be so stupid as to think it was because of her? It was certainly impossible. He hated her so much. How could he do things that was detrimental to his own interest?
Serena, you overestimated yourself too much.
After work, when Serena returned home, she was informed that Alessandro was waiting for her in the study.
Thinking back to what happened last time, Serena clutched her coat.
It was impossible not to go and see him, so Serena could only nod and head for the study.
Compared to the pressure she felt in the study previously, this time Serena felt an extremely greater one.
“Alessandro.” Serena bit her lower lip and greeted him.
Alessandro sat down by his desk, looking at Serena with stern and half-closing eyes, “I heard that… Cristian canceled his collaboration with the Romano Group?”
As expectedl!
When the maid told her that Alessandro wanted to talk to her, Serena had guessed the purpose of it.
Alessandro was not in the company, but he still knew this matter, which indicated that he had spies.
Lying would not be a good solution. Serena nodded.
“Yes, I just heard about it.”
Getting the affirmation, Alessandro was so angry that he swept the books on the table directly onto the floor, making a loud noise that startled Serena who could only take a few steps back.
“He’s really making a mess! Why is he giving up such a big advantage?”
Alessandro was so furious that Serena could understand more about the importance of this project.
“Aurora!”
Serena straightened up, almost forgetting that she married in her sister’s name.
“Yes?”
“The collaboration with the Romano group cannot be interrupted. You… look for Enrico Romano to see what is going on!”
Look for Enrico? Serena’s face changed slightly, but she dared not object and nodded.
After leaving the study, Serena was worried since after the conflict between her and Enrico that night. Even if she looked for him, Enrico would not agree to cooperate with Cristian anyway. Even if he agreed, she would not even be sure whether Cristian would accept it or not.
So she thought about telling it to Cristian.
But if she told him this, wouldn’t that mean telling Cristian that his grandfather was spying on him?
How hurt should he be if he learned that his family was against him? Especially for a disabled person….
It was very difficult.
Serena felt herself caught up in a great storm.
Back in the room, Serena closed the door as she looked toward the corner where she slept, but found that there was a small bed. It seemed to her that she was entering the wrong room, but she discovered that the things on it were hers.
What… what happened?
Serena was stunned in front of the bed.
Did Cristian become generous? So did he order someone to bring her a bed?
Thinking about this, sounds came from behind, which indicated the arrival of Luca and Cristian.
Cristian was expressionless at first, but when he saw her standing in front of the bed, he became slightly unnatural.
“You’re back.” Serena approached, then pointed to the bed and asked, “That bed…”
“Is there a problem?” Cristian arched his eyebrows and asked unhappily.
Hearing this, Serena shook her head, “No problem. It’s just that…”
“What? Do you think it was me who bought you the bed?” Cristian coldly reproved her.
Behind Cristian’s back, Luca reacted and smiled, telling Serena, “Miss Serena, often sleeping on the floor will be easy to catch a cold, so I had this bed sent. I don’t know if you are satisfied with it.”
Serena was speechless.
The light in her eyes darkened in an instant.
It was not him who gave her the bed. It was Luca.
“Eh.” There was deep derision from Cristian who was scolding the person behind him, “Did I give you this permission? Luca, now you are doing more and more things without rules.”
Hearing this, Luca was slightly embarrassed, but still he explained, “Sir, the young lady has been living here for a long time, and she also has a six-month contract with you. At least give her a place to sleep. She now also works in the company. It will be very problematic if she gets sick.”
Cristian did not speak again, indicating that he agreed with it.
Serena looked down and asked no more.
Luca wiped his sweat in silence.
He felt he could call himself a ‘scapegoat’ by name. This bed was clearly… forgot it!
He was an assistant for many years. It was not a big deal to be his scapegoat, because it was much easier than solving very difficult problems anyway.
“I got it, thank you.” Serena thanked him.
While Cristian became disgruntled, and pulled on his tie.
Luca pushed Cristian into the bathroom for shower, while Serena sat on the bed. Comparing the hard floor, she felt warm from the bottom of her heart.
Actually, the feeling of being in the Ferrari family was not so bad.
Thinking about this, Serena lifted her lips and smiled, and then went to arrange her clothes. As she was tidying up her things, she heard a clanking sound that came from a small object falling on the floor.
Serena lowered her gaze doubtfully.
A metal button fell to the floor, glittering beautifully in the light.
Button?
It was obviously not hers.Content is property © NôvelDrama.Org.
It looked like a precious button, both in shape and texture, and it certainly would not appear over her clothes.
But why did it fall off from her dress?
Serena thought about it, and placed the button on her palm to observe it.
After a while, some familiar images appeared in her mind.
More than a month ago, on that stormy night, the unknown man placed her on the seat. She tried to resist, to scream, but the man was too strong. When she was penetrated, she grabbed a button.
But when was this button dropped into her pocket? Why could she not remember anything?
Looking at the shiny gold button, Serena seemed to depict something.
Yes, with this button, could it be easier to find that man?
Thinking about this, Serena quickly took out her cell phone to send a message to Alice.
Alice received the message and immediately called her.
“What did you say? Do you have any news?”
