The onlookers couldn''t help but voice their thoughts. "It turns out she''s a mistress. How could she even have the nerve to charge up and p someone in the face?"


    "She''s a mistress, so she''s most likely shameless."


    Hearing these words, Sarah''s face turned pale with anger. She stomped her foot in frustration, grabbed her bag, and hurriedly fled the scene.


    The surroundings soon quieted down.


    Serena thought that, after such humiliation, Sarah would know better than to stay here and would head home to rest.


    She didn''t care to interfere further.


    After spending some time with her employees, she quietly went to settle the bill, preparing to leave. However, just as she was about to exit, she saw Sarah''s sneaky figure from a distance.


    Serena was surprised that Sarah hadn''t left yet.


    She watched as Sarah sneaked something into a cup before quickly hiding in a private booth, her coat draped over her head to hide her expression.


    Serena furrowed her brows. Sarah was up to something suspicious, and it looked illegal.


    Serena immediately walked over, intending to dump the drink.


    But before she could reach the booth, Regina''s cold voice rang out from behind her. "I just beat up your sister, and now you''re here defending her? I thought you two weren''t getting along!


    "Good thing I came back in time. Otherwise, would you have added something to my drink?"


    Regina had just returned from the restroom, slightly drunk. She strode forward, pushing Serena aside, and made her way into the booth.


    Serena frowned. "Someone slipped something in your drink. I was going to dispose of it for you."


    "You''re talking nonsense!" Regina snapped angrily, propping herself up on the armrest of the couch and leaning forward.


    She red up at Serena, her face full of disdain. "Who else in this bar could have a grudge against me other than you two? I just beat up your sister. Would you really help me?"


    Serena didn''t get angry. Instead, she smiled slightly and leaned in. The pressure she exuded was overwhelming.


    She said, "If you don''t trust me, go ahead and drink it. If something happens, I won''t be responsible."


    With that, Serena had no interest in ying the good guy anymore. She prepared to leave.


    But seeing that Serena seemed sincere, Regina grabbed her arm and ordered her two friends who had returned with her. "Tell the manager to temporarily close the bar and get a bartender to check my drink. And get the surveince footage."


    The Arnold family really was powerful and influential. The bar had all the connections.


    After a while, Regina saw a suspicious figure on the surveince footage. She also noticed that before Serena entered the booth, she had deliberately kicked the trash can closer. Serena truly wanted to help her.


    Regina was momentarily stunned. The next moment, the bar security dragged Sarah over.


    Both of Sarah''s hands were bound behind her, and her jacket had slipped off, revealing a twisted, angry expression on her face.


    "Let go of me! How dare you grab me? I''m a paying customer here!" she yelled.


    Regina immediately pped Sarah across the face. "I was just nning to teach you a lesson, but you tried to drug me and ruin my reputation! Let me tell you, as long as I''m still the heirless of the Arnold family, even if my reputation is ruined, I can still marry Cole!"


    Sarah was stunned by the p. Looking at the people behind Regina, she was too scared to move and could only re fiercely at Serena.


    "Serena! We both have the samest name! How could you help her and not me? I''m going to tell Dad and make him—"


    "Didn''t you hear what Ms. Arnold just said?" Serena asked calmly, standing off to the side with a raised eyebrow.


    "The engagement between the Larson family and the Arnold family was decided by Mr. Larson Senior. No matter what happens, the marriage will proceed as nned.


    "But you''remitting a crime. When the Arnold family presses charges, do you want to serve three years or seven? You should be thanking me. You failed in your attempt tomit a crime.


    "The worst you''ll get is being detained for a couple of days. Of course, Ms. Arnold might be generous and just p you a few more times before letting you go home. You better know when to back down."


    After saying this, Serena nced at the time, no longer interested in the dispute. She waved her hand dismissively, ready to leave.
