Serena didn’t want to answer. Talking about the past now is like carving a boat around a sword, the past and the present are completely different. All she could say was that she truly cared back then, and now taking back her love is her present decision. She looked at the wooden fox statue in front of her. That’s his impression of her. But she was never a fox. All she used was her own heart. But now, that heart is scarred. She handed the wooden fox statue back to Xander. But Xander didn’t take it. He said softly, "Keep it, now that you’re back in the country, I have to give you a gift. Although I carved it myself and it’s not worth much, you can treat it as a wish." "As long as it’s a wish I can fulfill." He smiled, tempting her, "I could give you all my assets, even my life." He had already figured it out; over the years, he had met that person before, but just didn’t know it at the time. Besides, back then that person belonged to someone else. Fortunately now, she has regained her freedom. He still has time and a chance to make an effort. She sighed softly, took his hand, and placed the wooden fox in his palm. "Why would I want your life?" She no longer wanted to be involved in these causes and effects; one Julian Lawson was already enough to make her feel unbearable pain. Xander wanted to say something, but a shadow fell beside him. It was Silas Hawthorne. The source of this content ɪs 𝖓𝖔𝖛𝖊𝖑~𝖋𝖎𝖗𝖾~𝖓𝖊𝖙 He looked at Xander with a smile before his gaze landed on Serena. "I saw you two chatting here for a while and came over to take a look," Silas said. "You again..." Xander was initially a bit impatient with the interruption, but paused upon seeing Silas’ face. "It’s you?" Xander said, then looked at Serena, then back at Silas, with an odd expression. Silas smiled but didn’t speak. Silas took Serena’s hand back and pushed Xander’s hand holding the fox statue back. "Hold onto your own things," he said, "If someone doesn’t like it, don’t forcefully give it; it’s very impolite." Although he maintained a smiling demeanor, his attitude was very firm. Xander’s face didn’t look good, trying to say something, but Silas had already taken Serena’s hand. "Let’s go," he said to Serena with a smile, "Isn’t Seraphina still at the interest class? I think it’s about time to pick her up." Xander’s gaze was fixed hard on Silas holding Serena’s hand. Serena stifled a laugh and nodded. "We’re leaving," Serena said to Xander, "Enjoy your time back home." "You two..." Xander still wanted to say something, but the two of them left while talking. Leaving Xander alone in astonishment. On the other side, Serena and Silas were already sitting in the car. "Do you know him?" Serena asked while buckling her seatbelt. "Yes, we met in business circles before," Silas said as he started the car. The car proceeded steadily on the road. Finally, it stopped at the place where Seraphina had her interest class. When Serena undid her seatbelt, Silas suddenly said, "Serena, remember our agreement for twelve solo meetings? Let’s schedule the first one for the day after tomorrow?" He felt a sense of urgency. She had just gotten divorced and immediately people were watching. He wanted to act first! Serena was a bit surprised but didn’t find anything wrong, after all, she agreed to it. Thinking about it, she smiled and nodded, "Okay." The Lawson Corporation. Julian Lawson’s expression was very unpleasant. Secretary Chaucer had just gotten a doctor to tend to the wounds on his face. Calls from various countries were still coming in. Shareholders were demanding an explanation. A swarm of reporters had long been blocking the entrance to Lawson Tower, stirring up havoc online. "President Lawson, everyone is asking when the press conference we mentioned before will start? They’re all waiting for an outcome." Secretary Chaucer carefully spoke up. Actually, if it weren’t necessary, he wouldn’t want to speak at all, especially seeing the very bad expression on the other person’s face. Julian Lawson closed his eyes in pain. What’s constantly appearing in his mind is Serena’s cold and merciless gaze. And the harmonious way she and Xander looked at each other. A fire named jealousy rose in his heart. Julian Lawson clenched his right hand. "President Lawson?" Secretary Chaucer carefully urged. "In half an hour," Julian Lawson said, "In the third meeting room." Only then did Secretary Chaucer breathe a sigh of relief. Soon after, the latest live broadcast preview appeared online— #Julian Lawson to hold a press conference in half an hour to address divorce matters# In no time, it attracted the attention of countless netizens. Whether they were interested in divorce gossip or the economic situation, they watched eagerly. Captivating everyone’s interest. People like Xander who were following these matters also stayed tuned to the corresponding live channels. Time flowed like water. Soon, the time would arrive. Vera Hansen was beside Julian Lawson. She worriedly said, "Brother Julian, are you really going to respond at this time?" Next to her, Isla Lawson was also very angry; she said, "Exactly, how can Serena just disregard everything and leave Brother Julian to face this alone!" But Julian Lawson merely gave her a cold look. Vera didn’t know what to say, she just asked, "Should I go with you?" "No need," Julian Lawson said. Then, he pushed the door open and went in. The meeting room was filled with reporters, along with live broadcast equipment. The moment he entered, the flashbulbs overwhelmed everything. At that moment, Serena was with Seraphina at the Hawthorne Family’s old residence. Just as they were picking up Seraphina, Silas suggested they should drop by home to see the cats. Seraphina wanted to see them, so Serena took her along to the Hawthorne Family’s home. At this time, the player nearby showed Julian Lawson’s live footage. "Serena and I have indeed divorced." Julian Lawson’s voice transmitted clearly: "When we got married, we signed a prenuptial agreement, so there won’t be a sky-high divorce settlement issue." Julian Lawson hesitated slightly, then continued: "Although we registered the marriage, the subsequent asset division is still in process, progress will be announced in the future." "As for cooperation, our Lawson Corporation will arrange for the appropriate personnel to handle the transition, please don’t panic." Julian Lawson said many things, and the flashbulbs kept fluttering. Finally, it came to the journalist question segment. Immediately, a journalist asked: "President Lawson, what is the reason for your divorce with Serena? We looked into the timeline of your first divorce proceedings, and it seems very close to the times you appeared with Vera many times. Could it be because of Vera?" Julian Lawson’s eyes narrowed dangerously. But before he could answer, someone else stood up and asked: "President Lawson, what did Serena take with her in this divorce? You mentioned it’s still in process; what exactly is the process? Aren’t these pre-agreed and organized beforehand?"
