NovelEnglishChapter 803 Her parents spoke these words in front of everyone, not even considering her feelings.
Cornelia noticed her presence and quietly asked, "And where's Serena? What college is she attending now?" Before she tripped and fell down the stairs, Cornelia remembered Serena as a high school senior. Now time flew and she was already in college.
"Grandma, | got into Summerfield College; Serena announced.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtAlthough, with Arabella's grades, getting into Summerfield College wasn't an issue.
But Serena earned her place at Summerfield College, so there was no harm in being a bit proud of her achievement.
Cornelia nodded approvingly, "That's great, Summerfield College is one of the best universities in the country.
You've always been a good student." She turned her attention towards Louisa, "What about the engagement?" Louisa explained with a smile, "Romeo fell in love with Bella at first sight, and the McMillians are very fond of her.
Serena also has a boyfriend now, and he's quite a catch." One could say it was like hitting the jackpot.
Serena didn't expect the topic of having a boyfriend to keep coming up, and suddenly felt a bit sheepish.
At the time, to make everyone believe she wasn't interested in Romeo, Martha had hastily told a white lie for her.
She hadn't anticipated that this lie would later require countless more to cover up.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm"Serena has a boyfriend too?" This surprised Cornelia because Serena had always been infatuated with Romeo.
How could she have moved on so quickly? "What do Phillip and Shirley think?" Cornelia inquired further.
"They both adore Bella, and even gifted her a necklace symbolizing the future granddaughter-in-law! Romeo's parents are also very pleased with Bella. The teal necklace that Jennifer gave her is a treasure passed down to the daughters of her family for generations. It's been in the family for five generations with Jennifer, which shows how much she values Bella." Louisa paused, and then she continued, "George gave her a gemstone key engraved with the McMillian crest, which is said to unlock the McMillian's secret base, and even their safety deposit box in an overseas bank." Upon hearing this, Serena was flabbergasted! These two gifts were beyond "valuable". Unless they fully recognized Arabella's status and deeply loved her, they would never give away these treasures! Cornelia was also taken aback. She hadn't expected Bella to win over the entire McMillian family.
She knew Phillip and Shirley well. If they didn't absolutely adore Bella, they would never gift her the necklace.
And Jennifer was a strong-willed woman who wouldn't easily accept Bella just because of an engagement agreement, let alone gift her a necklace.
Even when Serena had been visiting the McMillians multiple times, she hadn't received such recognition from Jennifer and George.
Thinking about this, Cornelia looked at Arabella again. Not only did Bella have many identities, but she also won over the hearts of everyone in the McMillian family. She was truly extraordinary.
Serena seemed to pale in comparison.
