Forced to Marry the Sickly Billionaire-Chapter 78 - How do you know I never said that

Her laughter, clear and pleasant as silver bells, lingered in Evan Summers’ ears, but his heart couldn’t help but sink.

“Evan, you are really too naive.

How do you know I never mentioned it?”

After she had laughed enough, Serena Summers tightened her face and squinted at Evan Summers without blinking an eye.

How do you know I never mentioned it…

Evan Summers felt a shiver as he was stared at, his mind suddenly exploding.

He panicked, getting up and fleeing the Shaw Family.

He didn’t even dare to take another look at Serena Summers.

Those clear, spring-like eyes seemed to peer into one’s soul, exposing all filth and unsightliness.

Watching Evan Summers flee, Serena Summers couldn’t help but sneer.

She had mentioned her plight before, but any hint of aggrievance was met with ridicule without explanation.

The Summers Family would also assume she coveted Grace Summers’ belongings.

Over time, she simply stopped speaking.

Remembering the past, Serena Summers took a deep breath, suddenly overwhelmed by a sense of inexplicable sadness.

When she learned that her parents were still alive, she was overjoyed and wanted to tell her master and three senior brothers immediately.

But later, she found out that her biological parents didn’t seem to be looking forward to her return.

Her brothers had found a new favorite.

Whenever Serena Summers appeared in front of that girl, even slightly close, it was misinterpreted as having ill intentions.

They hated her like a thief, convinced she was an utterly despicable and scheming person.

She didn’t even have the chance to explain.

“Madam, are you alright?”

Sister Green walked to the couch without notice.

She looked at Serena Summers, her eyes full of concern.

Serena Summers returned from her memories, chuckling and shook her head.

Seeing concern in Sister Green’s eyes, Serena Summers reassured her with a smile, “Thank you for your concern, Sister Green, I’m fine.”

Sister Green frowned worriedly, helplessly sighed, “Madam, the Summers Family is truly shameless, treating you like that before, and now they still have the nerve to ask you for help!”

“Some people, they only believe what they want to believe.

As for the truth, they simply don’t care.”

Serena Summers’ eyes narrowed slightly, her lips curling into a cold smile.

The Summers Family has always been full of themselves, especially Evan Summers.

Among the three Summers brothers, Evan Summers was the fondest of Grace Summers.

Initially, the one who ridiculed and taunted her the most was also Evan Summers.

I wonder if Evan Summers will continue to deceive himself when the truth is revealed?

She looked forward to seeing Evan Summers’ performance next.

Sister Green looked at Serena Summers with pity, as if looking at a little one deprived of affection.

“Madam, would you like some dessert?

I heard that having some dessert can lift one’s spirits.” Sister Green was worried that Serena Summers might be stricken by Evan Summers’ visit.

Although it was presumptuous, she gathered the courage to say it.

“Sure.

Thank you, Sister Green.”

Serena Summers smiled at Sister Green, her clear eyes sparkling with bright, dazzling starlight.

Her whole demeanor was unnaturally gentle and soft.

Sister Green lowered her eyes, sighing inwardly with regret, then turned to the kitchen.

Shortly after, she retrieved a chilled small cake from the refrigerator.

Elsewhere.

Evan Summers fled the Shaw Family’s home in a panic, his whole being suddenly becoming disoriented.

He wandered aimlessly along the roadside, Grace’s last words echoing in his mind, “How do you know I haven’t said it?”

Evan slowly crouched down, wrapping his arms tightly around his head and burying his face deep into his knees.

A tide of remorse and guilt surged through him like a wave.

Indeed, he remembered.

Serena had mentioned needing a change of clothes.

It was her third day back home.

That day, he had been dragged by Grace Summers to go shopping at the mall.

Grace liked all kinds of beautiful and exquisite dresses and jewelry, insisting on buying anything she took a liking to.

That day, he bought Grace a dozen pieces of clothing, three or four sets of diamond jewelry, and several shoes and bags…

Upon arriving home, he bumped into Serena.

Her gaze fixed on the shopping bags in his hands, a flicker of hope passing through her eyes.

Back then, Serena still harbored a bit of hope for familial affection.

However, what did he do?

He hid the shopping bags behind him and glared fiercely at Serena, warning her: “These are all for Grace, don’t even think about coveting them!”

Serena looked up, her clear eyes trembling slightly as she meekly said, “Big brother, I have no clothes to change into, could you possibly…”

“You must be dreaming!

Bringing you back to the Summers Family was already more than generous.

Everything in the Summers Family is for Grace, you shouldn’t even think about touching them!”

With those words, he left without looking back.

Evan had never considered how deeply those words would hurt Serena, who had just been brought back home.

Suddenly remembering something, Evan quickly stood up and ran in the direction of the Summers Family home.

Summers Family.

After Evan left, Grace immediately rushed to the restroom.

Standing in front of the mirror, she looked at her pale face, and couldn’t help but laugh.

Her makeup skills were indeed superb, almost flawless.

Grace examined the fragile and somewhat sorrowful face in the mirror, frowning slightly.

It seemed not pitiful enough.

For better effect, she hurriedly took out an eyebrow pencil from the drawer and redid her eyebrows.

A slightly furrowed brow made her appear even more woeful, eliciting pity.

Looking at herself in the mirror, Grace was satisfied with the curve of her lips.

The next second, Evan’s voice came from outside.

“Grace, are you in the restroom?”

Grace was startled by the sound, nearly dropping the eyebrow pencil.

She nervously patted her chest and quickly responded, “Yes, I am!”

She hurriedly checked her reflection in the mirror, then breathed a sigh of relief and stepped out.

She had entered the entertainment industry years ago, so she knew how to leverage her facial features.

Thus, when Evan saw Grace coming out of the restroom, she appeared even paler and weaker.

Her shoulders were gaunt, her eyebrows tightly knit, and her face bore an unwavering sorrow, as if she might faint at any second.

However, Evan’s mind was filled with Serena’s words, and he failed to notice the change in Grace’s complexion.

“Big brother, you came back so quickly?” Grace looked at Evan in surprise.
