Chapter 1411


    Serena watched as May kept her gaze lowered, never even ncing her way, and irritation bubbled


    within her. It was just a servant, for crying out loud, too stuck-up to appreciate a kind gesture.


    Thinking she''s all high and mighty.


    Just then, an excited voice broke through the tension.


    "Darling, my darling"


    Darren heard his wife had finally arrived, and he hobbled as fast as he could, leaning heavily on his


    cane, wishing he could move faster.


    The help trailed behind him with a wheelchair, offering a helpless smile while exining, "Mr. Darren


    refuses to sit in the wheelchair. He says it''ll ruin his image."


    Arabe, standing by the door, had to suppress a giggle. Did he really think hobbling on a cane was


    any better for his image?


    Belinda hurried over to steady him. "What on earth happened to you?"


    "Just took a little tumble, it’s nothing” Darren wrapped his arms around his wife. “You''re finally here. It


    feels like an age since west saw each other! I must say, my dear, you''re still radiant. Your face is


    more delicate than the roses in the garden."


    The staff couldn''t help but snicker at Darren''s remarks.


    Belinda swatted him yfully. "People are listening, have you no shame?


    Look at all these wrinkles, and you are stillparing me to flowers."


    She touched her face subconsciously as she spoke.


    "You look beautiful! Even more so than when you married me." Darren kissed her forehead solemnly


    before saying, "From now on, you''re not going anywhere. It''s my turn to take care of you"


    "With you looking like that?” Belinda eyed his cane and teased him. “And what about leaving everything


    to Sampson?"


    "He''s grown now. We''re too old to be chasing after him. Once I''m back on my feet, we won''t stay at


    Bard''s ce anymore. Let''s go back to living our own lives, like the old days!"


    As the couple chattered away, clearly eager to share the moments they''d missed, Arabe''s eyes


    softened, feeling the warmth of family harmony.


    When their heartfelt exchange concluded, Arabe finally said, "Hello, Grandpa, Grandma."


    "Be?" Belinda''s eyes lit up upon seeing her granddaughter, and she immediately let go of her


    husband to embrace Arabe tightly.


    Arabe smiled. "How have you been feelingtely?"


    "I''ve been taking the medicine you gave me on time. I feel like I''m full of energy again, no aches or


    pains." Belinda released the hug, beaming at her granddaughter. "Did you just get back? Where were


    you?"


    "Just taking care of some things."


    Knowing the risks involved, Arabe didn''t disclose details, simply saying, "Seeing you and Grandpa


    together makes me truly happy for both of you."


    “All thanks to you.” Darrenvished Arabe with praise from head to toe,pletely oblivious to


    another granddaughter standing by.


    Serena noted that ever since Arabe had shown up, her grandparents had showered her with


    affection and attention, more so than they ever did with Serena herself.


    On the other hand, she felt utterly dispensable, despite being their granddaughter by blood.

    She remembered how she''d gone to greet her grandmother when she arrived, and not once did her


    grandma embrace her, even though Serena had spent nearly an hour sweetly holding her hand.


    It seemed blood ties trumped all!


    And her grandpa hadn''t even acknowledged her since he appeared, as if she was invisible.
