    “Come on,” Grayson Lewis said, “sit down.”


    Serenity took a seat and bluntly asked, “Where are you going to move my mother’s grave?”


    “Let’s talk about thatter,” Grayson waved his hand. “Let’s talk about what’s going on between you


    and your sister. I’m going to be the peacemaker for both of you today. No matter what happened,


    you’re still family, you know. As the elder sister, you should always protect your little sister,”


    “All I want ia ‘enow,” Serenity insisted, “is where you’re going to move my mother’s grave‘


    Grayson grew impatient.


    “Didn’t I tell you we’ll talk about thatter? Let’s settle this problem between you and your sister first,”


    “Sis,” Aria spoke up in an apparently earnest voice, please forgive me if I’ve ever done anything wrong.


    I’m Iruly sorry”


    This only made Serenity put her guard up even more. The more Aria acted this way, the more she


    could tell that there might be a problem.


    And just as she suspected, the next thing Grayson said confirmed her fears and made her realize what


    Aria’s true motive was


    “Come now, you’re both sisters, after all, so don’t let one man get in between the both of you.


    He then tumed to his eldest daughter and said, “Serenity, Lucas Gomez is your sister’s boyfriend, so


    don’t ruin her rtionship with him. Besides, aren’t you with Jackson Valor right now? In that case, you


    really shouldn’t get in between your sister and Lucat.”


    Realization hit Serenity. So, that was the true reason why they wanted her there.


    “I have no interest in what’s going on between Ana and Lucas Gomez,” she said, before once again


    repeating her question, “I just want to know where my mother’s grave will be moved.”


    “Are you telling me you won’t do as I say?‘ Graysan snapped with anger. “So, you re determined to


    steal Lucas away from. your sister, huh? I’m telling you now, if you ever dare ruin Arta’s rtionship,


    you won’t ever see your mother’s grave ever


    again


    Serenity stared at her father icily and replied, “My actions won’t have any effect on her rtionship


    anyway. If Lucas really loves her, then no one can steal him away from her, but if he never loved her,


    she won’t be able to keep him no matter what she does, then!”


    “What are you saying?!” Serenity’s stepmother suddenly cut in anxiously. “You’re not trying to drag Aria


    down with you. because you can’t marry Jackson, are you?! My daughter is nothing like you! She’s an


    innocent girl with no criminal record and she’s going to be a superstar in the future! She’s not going to


    end up lior you!”


    If you really think that she’s nothing like me,‘ said Serenity with indifference, “I’m sure she’ll be able to


    keep Lucas by her side with her own capabilities.”


    She never understood why Lucas would ever choose Aria to be his girlfriend. Was it love? It did not


    look like it Otherwise, he would never let Aria kneel in front of so many prople back then on the film set.


    Even if the real person behind it was Jackson, Lucas was more than powerful enough to not be


    intimidated by him!


    Besides, Serenity had seen how Lucas treated his ex–girlfriends. Perhaps those who had been in the


    most rtionships. the most unfeeling ones after all, Serenity simply could not believe that Aria would


    be Lucas Gomez’sst girlfriend.


    “The only reason I came here today was to find out about my mother’s grave! Please give me the


    documents regarding the application to move my mother’s grave along with the household registration


    bookdet, and I’ll handle it myself.”


    As she spoke, she realized that she had never officially moved out of this house yet. But then, she


    thought about it and realized that she had nowhere to move to since she had no offici address in


    Solicia. She could not put her name in the Sanitation Office collective housebuld registration, and as for


    her grandother’s house.. she was sure that her uncles and the rest of the family would never agree to it


    since they would suspect her of going after the relocation fund.


    At that moment, it suddenly dawned on her how truly alone she was in this world. She did not even


    have a single ce she could traly call home.
