NovelEnglishChapter 239 "Ahhhhh, who else is losing it? Serena is absolutely stunning when she goes full badass!" "Seriously! I thought she was just going to be another pretty face when she showed up-like set decoration or something. Who knew she was this fierce?" "Same! I totally thought the girl standing front and center was the real deal, but turns out Serena's the true star." "Did no one notice? When Serena first appeared, she was all done up with heavy makeup, but later she switched to a more natural look-and honestly, she looked even better! How is that possible?" "She really does look better with just a little makeup! Ugh, it's such a waste she's not acting professionally. She'd be a sensation." "Please, can sdirector cast her already?

Aaron pressed his fingers to his temples, trying to calm the pounding headache. "Don't overthink it. I said I'd marry you, and I don't go back on my word." Cynthia finally relaxed a little.

"It's really not! I can take spictures for us." Aaron: "No need." Cynthia pressed her lips together, thinking quickly. Suddenly, her eyes lit up. "Then... what if we set matching profile pictures?

"Yeah," William replied, glancing up at the sky, his eyes full of quiet om apticipation. "Winter's almost here." Serena gave him a puzzled look. "You like winter?" He smiled faintly. "Not really."
