Chapter 2018


    Martin endured his mother''s tirade with a stoic silence, waiting for her to finish before speaking calmly,


    "Mom, don''t get yourself worked up over this. I really love her, and I only want to spend my life with


    her."


    "And you couldn''t fall for someone decent? With your status, you could have any woman you want! If


    you fancied a beggar on the street, as long as she was kind-hearted and grateful, I wouldn''t stand in


    your way! But look at that Serena, is she behaving like a decent person? I knew she was trouble the


    moment I met her at the Dawnstar boutique!"


    "Mom, please don''t insult her," Martin couldn''t stand anyone bad-mouthing her, even if it was his own


    mother. It still grated on his ears.


    "I''m at the office right now, there are some things I need to handle. Cool off, and I''ll find time to have a


    proper talk with you tonight."


    Florence, seething with rage, her voice tinged with anger retorted, "If you''re thinking of brainwashing


    us, save your breath. I''ll publicly denounce her in front of the media. I''ll never let her step foot into the


    Cooper family!"


    After hanging up abruptly, she copsed onto the couch.


    "Mom, are you okay?" Diana was terrified, quickly fetching a bottle of pills from the drawer. She handed


    one to her mother along with a ss of water, "Take this pill. Don''t get so agitated. She''s not worth it."


    Florence was livid, her hands shaking too much to even hold the ss, finally taking the pill with her


    daughter''s help.


    "Diana," Florence steadied herself after a while, standing up unsteadily, "Come with me to the estate, I


    want to have a word with this woman myself!"


    "Alright," Diana rushed to support her, "But please, don''t lose your temper, otherwise, we''ll be heading


    to the hospital before we even reach the estate. Don''t worry, I won''t let her into our family. Just take a


    deep breath."


    Diana still remembered how Serena hadmanded the salesclerk to snatch dresses from Arabe''s


    hands at the Style za. When it turned out Arabe had connections, Serena was thrown out of the


    store.


    The entire Style za was afraid to serve her, so she stood in front of the shop hurling insults, calling


    the clerk worthless trash.


    Years of good breeding made it difficult for Diana to even utter those words - it was just too vulgar.


    And the worst part? After berating the clerk, Serena had the audacity to smirk, as if she had gotten


    something off her chest.


    Going on about who she was, how much she had spent at another shop, and if anyone knew who

    Keh was.


    It was a public embarrassment,pletely unbing.


    Later, when apanying her parents to scoutnd, Diana stumbled upon Martin''s car parked there.


    She didn''t tell her parents but made an excuse to check it out, only to find Martin taking Serena on a


    date to thevender fields.


    In short, she was a drama queen.


    So, Diana had not a shred of good impression of Serena! Re?d at Dr?mа?оvеls


    If someone like Serena were to marry into the Cooper family, it wasn''t just Martin''s future at stake; she


    could potentially ruin the future of the entire Cooper family.
