Chapter 854


    Eventually, rk gave in, promising to apany her for a shopping spree in the evening.


    rk descended the stairs after changing his clothes, and Serena happily hooked her arm through his,


    "rk, I knew you''re always the best to me!"


    "You''re my sister. If I don''t treat you well, who will 1?" rk teased, scratching her nose yfully. His


    cell phone buzzed as he arrived at the garage and opened the car door. Seeing Arabe''s name on the


    caller ID, he picked up immediately.


    "Be, where have you been?" As soon as he answered the call,


    rkined, "It''s already 8 p.m., do you know how worried


    I''ve been? You didn''t answer my calls, replied to my numerous messages with just a word or two, and


    took forever to respond.


    Are you trying to drive me crazy? Where have you been all day?"


    Upon hearing this, Serena realized that rk had been glued to his phone all day, waiting for Arabe


    to reply.


    A sour feeling crept into her heart, and a tinge of resentment and jealousy welled up within her, but she


    kept her emotions under wraps.


    "rk, I''ve caught a few people who might be rted to Carol''s disappearance." Arabe, always a


    woman of few words, spoke while driving, "They''re with me now, but I''d rather keep my location a


    secret, so don''t spread the word. I''ming to pick you up at the


    Reflections Vi. Can you meet me there?"


    "Sure, how long will you be?" Hearing that this was rted to


    Carol''s disappearance, rk felt his heart tighten.


    Was his sister out catching culprits today?


    What sort of people could be rted to Carol''s disappearance?


    Didn''t Carol leave because she fell in love with someone else? How did it turn into a "disappearance;’

    in Arabe''s words?


    Too many questions popped up, giving him a bad premonition.


    "I''ll be there in about three minutes."


    "Okay, I''ll wait for you by the main gate." rk closed the car door and turned to Serena, "Serena,


    something came up. I''ll apany you to the mall some other time."


    "rk..." Serena rushed after him as he hurried away, "rk, what happened?"


    "I have to go out with Be. Stay here like a good girl, or ca friend to apany you. Buy whatever


    you like, and I''ll pay you backter. Be good." rk patted her on the head and quickly left.


    "rk." Serena was extremely upset. Why could Arabe summon rk away with a single call?


    Arabe must have done it on purpose!


    She chose to call precisely when rk was about to apany her shopping!


    rk was too much. He had promised to apany her shopping, but he stood her up to go out with


    Arabe.


    In the distance, Serena saw Arabe''s car parked outside the vi.


    rk quickly got in, and the car soon disappeared.


    The more she thought about it, the angrier she became. Upon returning to the living room of the main


    building, she saw Edith arranging a bouquet of flowers.


    The several servants around wereplimenting her on her arrangement.


    Looking at the flowers in front of her, Edith smiled, "I hope these flowers can bring Ms. Be some joy.


    I''ll put them in her room: Martha rolled her eyes and turned to see Serena storming back.


    She couldn''t help but feel puzzled.


    Hadn''t Serena gone shopping with rk?


    Why did she return alone?


    Edith''s smile and the flowers in her hand fully pricked Serena''s heart. She blocked Edith''s way, "Was it


    you? Did you tell Be that rk was going shopping with me?"
