Chapter 1116 Standing outside the villa, Serena allowed her tears to fall in silence, a melancholy smile tugging at the corners of her mouth.

Tonight was Christmas Eve, and she had taken a twelve-hour flight just to reconnect with her family.

She knew her parents had kept a secret from her, bringing Arabella to visit their grandmother and uncle.

She knew she was not welchere.

She knew everyone would rather not see her.

But she canyway, driven by an affection built over eighteen years.

She wanted to bridge the gap between her and her parents, her uncle, her grandmother.

But as she rushed to the villa, she heard laughter and the sound of merry songs coming from the garden.

In the distance, a group of Santa Clauses and dozens of elves were singing and dancing around a girl.

There was no need to guess who that girl was! Serena had planned to let bygones be bygones and join the fun, pretending her heart wasn't breaking.

But then, the fireworks that burst into the night sky, each word they spelled, deeply pierced her heart.

“Welchome." “Merry Christmas Eve." “Happy Christmas." “Bella, be happy." “Stay healthy and safe." Every single word was a sign of care and blessings for Arabella! Not a single word was meant for her!! Everyone centered around Arabella, trying their best to make her happy.

Nobody cared about the feelings of her, the adopted daughter! As the fireworks painted the night sky, they formed marigolds, Arabella’s favourite flower.

Everyone in the family knew Arabella loved marigolds. The brothers had even planted a bunch of them at Reflections Villa.

In the night sky, the marigolds beca sea of flowers, with a long-haired girl standing in the midst of them.

In the finale of the fireworks display, there were scenes of five brothers and a sister. One brother holding an umbrella for his sister, one bending down to tie his sister's shoelaces, one bending over to make his sister laugh, one presenting his sister a bouquet of flowers, and another holding a sword as if to protect his sister.

This scene deeply hurt Serena.

Did all her brothers only see one sister?? What about her, Serena?? She wasn't allowed to be part of their lives, and now, she didn't even have a place in the fireworks display?? Tears once again rolled down Serena's face, her smile growing more bitter and her heart heavier.

Her parents and brothers had always reassured her that they considered her part of the family and would treat her the sas before.

But now, everyone had kept her in the dark while they secretly prepared such an extravagant surprise for Arabella, leaving her alone at home.
