Chapter 60
“Quinn Fender, I don’t want anyone in this workplace to be hostile to each other. Serenity Lewis
certainly has been in prison before, but that is no reason for us to discriminate against her, making it
difficult for her to survive. Since you don’t feel comfortable working with her, I think it’s best that you
leave this job.”
But… But she was a full–time employee! How could she be fired just like that?! Quinn could hardly
believe that it was real, yet she could not deny that it had just happened!
She heard someone urging her, “Say something, Quinn.”
She looked around her, then when her gaze fell on Serenity, she rushed toward her in a burst of
outrage. She reached her in one huge stride and yelled, “You! It’s all your fault! If it hadn’t been for you,
the director would never have fired me! You’re the one he’s supposed to fine!”
Everyone there was astounded. So the one getting fired had ended up being… Quinn Fender?!
“You’re not joking, are you, Quinn?”

Quinn glared at Serenity with fierce contempt, and she started to raise her hand to hit her. Serenity
managed to dodge her, but Quinn seemed to have gone rabid, and she was hell–bent on attacking
Serenity.
Just then, sucneune stepped forward and held Quinn back from reaching Serenity.
“Haven’t you had enough? What does Serenity have to do with the director’s decision to fire you,
anyway? How can someone in her position ever influence him?”
Quinn turned around and noticed that it was Peter.
Seeing this, the other drivers rushed forward to hold Quinn back too. And just like that, the whole farce
ended.
“Thank you,” Serenity said to Peter.
“Don’t mention it,” Peter replied in a voice laced with guilt. “If it hadn’t been for me, she would never
target you like that.”
Serenity was about to turn and leave, but Peter suddenly asked, “That guy you called your brother… Is
he really your real brother?”
Serenity stared at Peter, slightly taken aback by the question.
Peter then stammered, “I just.. I just feel like.. The two of you don’t look like siblings.”
When he first saw them together, for some reason, it seemed more to him like they were lovers, not
siblings.
“We’re not related by blood,” she told him, but he is family to me,
Family, huh? Peter still could not believe it. Even if she did think of him as family, what about that
guy…? Did he think of her as family and nothing else?
The way that guy looked at Serenity, Peter could clearly see signs of possessiveness in his eyes, and it
was definitely not the way abrother looked at his sister!
“Are you listening to me, Zeke
Jenny had to raise her voice when she asked Zele the question. He had been acting oddly distracted

did not seem to be listening to her.
“Ah!” Zeke exclaimed, coming abruptly back to his senses. “What were you saying?
“What’s wrong with you today?” Jenny grumbled. “If you’re going to act this way tomorrow when try on

“Jenny, I suddenly thought of something urgent that I need to attend to immediately!”
As he spoke, he shot up to his feet and rushed out of the private lounge in a great hurry.
Jenny did not even have the chance to ask him anything before he was gone. Now, she was left all
alone in the spacious private lounge with a huge table full of food. Her expression was twisted by
displeasure. What could be so urgent that it made him abandon her like that?! He seemed to be a
completely different man compared to the tender way he usually treated her!
Meanwhile, Zeke made a call to his secretary while driving and instructed, “Go to the Sanitation Office
and get me Serenity Lewis’s current address now!
Not long afterward, his secretary sent Serenity’s address to Zeke’s mobile phone. He then took off to
her place at top speed.
