Chapter 1529


    His tone was unyielding and merciless.


    Everyone knew that Romeo was a man with a vicious streak. When he said he would make someone

    pay, it wasn''t just idle talk.


    Bruno, standing nearby, hurried forward, "Mr. McMillian, there must be some misunderstandings.


    Sweetie, what do you know? Speak up. What''s going on here? Please, take some champagne to


    soothe your throat while I talk to her. The kid''s surely been led astray."


    Overhearing this, Serena, who stood not far away, urgently said to Martin by her side, "We need to


    leave, now."


    "No way, you''ve been humiliated, and I can''t just stand by and watch. Who made you fall over? And


    what about those wine stains on your dress?"


    "Let''s go home and talk about it." Serena was running out of time, fearing that any second, Lindsay


    would spill the beans, and she wouldn''t be able to leave at all.


    "How can I just swallow this insult?" Martin fumed. As long as he thought of how Serena was covered


    in cake and wine, sprawling on the floor in utter disarray, he would be so furious that he wished to tear


    the perpetrator to pieces.


    "Are you deaf?" Serena tugged at him, "I''m tired, I want to go home and rest. Are youing or not?"


    "Why hide from them?" Martin nced over at Romeo, then back at her, "Was it them? Was it Romeo?


    Or your sister? I''ll clear this up with them."


    "Martin!"


    Before Serena could set things straight with him, Bruno was already berating his daughter in a low,


    angry voice, "Do you want to ruin us? Can''t you see Mr. McMillian is waiting? Speak up, or the Marsh


    family is finished!"


    Lindsay, knowing the extent of Romeo''s power and ruthlessness, finally caved in and told the whole


    story.


    "It was Serena, she told me this herself. We were close friends. She said she and Mr. McMillian were


    truly in love, but Jamie Noelle interfered and stole his love."


    The guests were stunned by the revtion.


    So it was true.


    The engagement between the Collins and the McMillian families was real, and Jamie Noelle had


    indeed meddled with their rtionship.


    What a juicy piece of gossip in the world of the wealthy families.


    On one side was the pretty but vain heiress, and on the other, a talented and beautiful artist. No


    wonder Romeo would choose thetter.


    Though that''s what people thought, no one dared to speak their mind or show any disrespect to


    Romeo. They all just stood by to watch the drama unfolding silently.


    Romeo smirked coldly. Again, Serena.


    Arabe was left speechless. Serena, always up to her tricks, never failed fooling one person after


    another. When would ite to an end?


    "Bring Serena to me," Arabe instructed a servant.


    The servant, having worked for the Eugene family for years, obeyed Arabe as if she were Eugene''s


    own granddaughter.


    Seeing the servant approach, Serena angrily shook off Martin''s hand, "If you won''t leave, I will!"


    Then she tried to to escape the scene at a run.


    However, She was stopped as the servant instructed via earpiece all the other servants to block her


    path. Soon enough, Serena was brought to Arabe.


    "Did you tell Lindsay that you and Romeo were in love? That I was the one who came between you?"


    Arabe asked with a hint of amusement, facing the liar before her.


    In front of Romeo, Serena dared not lie, but with all the guests watching, she didn''t want to be


    humiliated either.


    Getting a brainstorm all of a sudden, she pped Lindsay across the face.


    Lindsay was stunned. What was happening??


    Even Lindsay''s father, Bruno, was confused, "What''s wrong with you? You think just because you''re the


    Collins heiress you can do whatever you like? Lindsay is my precious girl, it''s not your ce to p


    her."


    "Lindsay, I can''t believe you''d go this far!" Serenashed out in feigned anger.
