Chapter 128 Who knew what kind of things that guy would be into? The next day, before the crack of dawn, Serena was already up and getting dolled up. She deliberately chose a black cami dress; her hair was piled high on her head, exuding an aura of elegance and dignity “Serena, you're drop—dead gorgeous!” Martha said, helping her put on a dazzling necklace. “You're way prettier than Ms.

Martha's expression froze for a moment before she laughed and added, “Miss Serena, your features are bold and striking, just like someone from a well-off family should be” “Do you think Romeo will like what I'm wearing today?” Serena looked at herself in the mirror; her skin was delicate, her brows were clear and bright, and she was noble and elegant Martha sincerely admired her beauty: “If | were Mr. McMillan, | would have been totally smitten by now! Miss Serena, be confident; you'll definitely be the belle of the ball!” Just then, Holly knocked on the door and said, “Miss Serena, Mr. McMillan is here. Ms. Bella hasn't woken up yet, and the lady of the house is still asleep. Would you like to go down and greet him first?” Upon hearing this, Serena couldn't contain her excitement. She hurriedly touched up her make-up and went downstairs ahead of everyone else.

My sister isn’t an early riser.” Serena approached with a smile. “Shall | pour you a glass of milk?” “No need.” “You mustn't have eaten anything yet since you cout so early. Have smilk first.” Just as Serena was about to head to the kitchen, she heard him say, “No need; I'll wait for Bella.” Serena's smile froze on her face, but she quickly said, “If you're waiting for my sister, why not take a stroll in the garden instead of just sitting here? You haven't been here in a while. We've planted snew varieties in the garden. See if there's anything Grandpa Phillip might like and take sback for him.” “No need.” “The air in the garden is great; it can bring good vibes for the whole day. It's still early; I'll accompany you for a stroll.
“I'd rather be alone.” Romeo's intention was clear, but Serena suddenly squatted down and gently touched his knee. “Romeo, ever since my sister cback, you've been colder towards me.” Before she could finish, Romeo shifted uncomfortably and said, “Please behave yourself.” Serena's hand fell empty; her heart ached. “I know you like Arabella, but it wouldn't hurt to talk to me! She's so broad-minded, she wouldn't mind. Besides, we're not doing anything, just chatting.” In other words, if Arabella minded them chatting, it would mean she was petty and narrow-minded.
Seeing her trying to get close again, Romeo’s gaze turned icy. “But | do mind, Miss Lisa; please respect yourself.” Seeing that he didn’t want to have anything to do with her, Serena looked at Martha in the distance.
