Seeing Serena not respond, Julian Lawson continued: "Also, Seraphina’s illness, I will take over, I will find the best medical team, she will get better." "Seraphina is my child, you don’t need to worry about her," Serena finally replied. And his money, she would never take it again. If he still cared, then after they received the divorce certificate, return the Sheridan Family’s belongings to her. Consider it as the reward for her fighting for him all these years. "Ethan’s medical skills are excellent, he will cure Seraphina," Serena said. Anger surged once again in Julian Lawson’s heart. For original chapters go to novel✶fire.net "Isn’t your child also my child?" Julian Lawson said, "Serena, do you know what you are saying." Serena clenched her fists. She wanted to retort but held back. Today was the 23rd day of the cooling-off period, only 7 days left. Can’t cause any further trouble. Moreover, after this, Seraphina would be adopted under her mother’s name, having nothing to do with Julian Lawson. Next to her, Julian Lawson continued: "I know you are close with Bianca, I’ve nothing to say about you two being close friends, but what’s this ambiguous relationship with Ethan Lynch?" Serena looked up, disbelief in her eyes as she glanced at the man before her. "Why slander me?" she said, "There is nothing between him and me." Julian Lawson laughed bitterly. He stared into her eyes, spoke coldly: "I saw with my own eyes, you pulling and struggling with him in the ward." Serena thought about it, recalled that day’s events. "Was it you at the ward entrance that day?" Julian Lawson did not respond, just looked at her. Was this her caught in the act, admitting it? Serena just felt it was utterly ridiculous. Thinking, she genuinely laughed. "What right do you have to speak to me?" Serena laughed and said, "Your affairs with Vera Hansen are widely known, yet now you manage to lecture me." "Only the officials can start fires, not the commoners light lamps?" Not to mention she indeed had nothing to do with Ethan Lynch, she had already cleared things up with him that day, he agreed, and nothing further occurred inappropriately. Even if there was something, so what? Julian Lawson pursed his lips tightly. "So, is it Ethan Lynch, or Jasper Ford?" After a while, he finally said: "Or someone else?" "What’s the point of doing this? Showing it to me? To make me leave Vera Hansen?" "I said, Serena, Mrs. Lawson will only be you, it only takes half a year, Vera Hansen doesn’t have much time left." "Serena, stop the fuss, alright?" This would make him very annoyed! Serena looked at the man in front of her. Half of his face was hidden in the shadow, leaving only his eyes exceptionally clear. She once really liked these eyes, loved how they reflected her image when they looked at her. This way, it seemed to prove, his eyes only had her. But now, the owner of these eyes was relentlessly saying such cruel words to her. While protecting other women, he still told her not to cause trouble. Did he truly believe, she, Serena... could not live without him? Silence enveloped the two. In the dim light, only Serena’s earrings flickered faintly. "Buzz buzz buzz... buzz buzz buzz..." At this moment, Julian Lawson’s phone started vibrating. He took out the phone. Serena saw Vera Hansen’s name on the caller ID. Julian Lawson did not answer. "Buzz buzz buzz... buzz buzz buzz..." The phone kept vibrating. Julian Lawson still didn’t press the answer button. "Why not answer, she might have something urgent," Serena said, filled with sarcasm: "Perhaps fainted again? Needs you to check on her?" "Serena!" Julian Lawson couldn’t suppress his anger completely. He hated her speaking to him in this tone! But she just smiled lightly, looking at him. Julian Lawson clenched the phone, wanted to say something, but finally held back. Ignoring the vibrating, he put the phone back in his pocket. Beside them, someone unknowingly walked past, accidentally bumping the chain bag against the bottle of red wine on the table. The wine was knocked aside, swayed for a few times and then "thud" fell onto the floor nearby. Red liquid spread all over. "Ah! President Lawson, I’m sorry, I’m sorry! Waiter..." That person hurriedly went to find someone to clean up. What flashed in front of their eyes was the scene from the year when they went on a business trip to Jovia, drinking at the hot spring hotel. "Julian, what if they want me to drink? I don’t know how much I can handle." Back then, Serena said. Heard that three days later, the person they needed to liaise with loved wine. Back then, Julian Lawson laughed and said: "Don’t worry, you don’t need to drink." At that time, The Lawson Corporation was still in transition, even though it was a giant in Aeston, it still held a subordinate position in the new industry. "Even if we really need to drink wine, I will do it." He said. "I also want to share the burden with you." She laughed, pointing to the red wine sent by the other party. "Why don’t we try it? See how much I can handle." She laughed, looked at him and said, "This way, I can also know my limit." "Are you serious?" He looked into her eyes and said. She did not answer, expressed through her action. She opened the wine, poured it into two cups, handed one to him. He accepted, she lightly tapped her glass against his, her eyes shining brightly. "This glass, um... let’s hope we can successfully negotiate this contract." She said, downed the wine in her glass. He looked at her, smiled, also finished his glass of red wine. She poured more for both. Raised her glass to clink against his again. "This glass, Julian, wish you health and happiness." She said, once again, downed it in one go. The wine gradually took effect, her cheeks turned slightly red. Outside was snow falling heavily, white snowflakes constantly falling from the sky, while the hot spring hotel was warm inside. Looking at her, he thought she was really adorable, supporting her face, kissed her lips. "I can still go on!" She pushed him slightly, poured for them again. "This glass, hoping The Lawson Corporation transitions smoothly." "This glass, hoping you, Julian, will always stay handsome! Haha..." The two didn’t know how much they drank, several bottles of red wine were sent over. Finally, she wobbled as she raised her glass, said: "This glass..." She looked at him with a smile, her eyes and heart full of him. "This glass, Julian, hopes we can be happy forever." She managed to drink half, couldn’t continue, feeling dizzy. And he once again kissed her lips. Wine spilled on the ground, he held her waist, supported her, kissed her lightly all over her body. Air instantly boiled. "We will be happy." His voice carried a sexy hoarseness. Then, he pressed her against him, their breaths intertwined. That night, the two didn’t know how many times they were reckless. In the room, in the spring, trying all sorts. On the ground was flowing red wine. Her body was covered with his and wine’s smell. Back at the wine exhibition, the personnel had already come to clean up the spilled wine on the floor. The red liquid was gradually wiped clean. Serena withdrew her gaze. Thinking now, that year’s winter in Vesteria, really cold. "Cleaned up." The staff said, took away the fragments and left. The person who accidentally knocked over the wine also left after apologizing repeatedly. Julian Lawson looked at the ground gradually drying. His mood inexplicably. They once, clearly loved each other deeply. Had also spent many difficult days together, but now... What had happened to them? Julian Lawson didn’t understand, so he just remained silent. The phone in his pocket had already ceased vibrating some time ago. At this moment, the two sat here, in complete silence.
