Chapter 192: Everyone saw her as the key figure


    Alice returned to her house angrily and just as she entered the house she met Chiara who was leaving.


    Chiara was Matteo''s secretary. Alice was very kind to her even though she was in a bad mood.


    "Chiara, is there still work thiste at night?"


    Chiara smiled slightly at her and exined, "Yes, I''m here to find Mr. Giordano to solve something. It''s


    gettingte. I''m leaving now."


    Alice said softly, "I''ll let the driver take you home. It''s not safe at this hour."


    "No thanks. It takes me ten minutes to get back alone. Miss Giordano, I''ll be leaving."


    After saying goodbye to Alice, Chiara left the Giordano house directly.


    Even the gentle smile on Alice''s face disappeared, the mischief at the bottom of her eyes grew a little


    thicker. She went upstairs to Matteo''s room and knocked on the door.


    "Matteo, are you asleep?"


    After a while, she heard Matteo''s voice, "Not yet."


    "Then, may Ie in?"


    "Come in."


    Alice smiled, then opened the door and went inside.


    "Matteo, tonight I went to the Ferrari group headquarters to attend the anniversary event. This is the


    dress I bought yesterday. Do they fit me?"


    Before asking Matteo, Alice took courage.


    She felt that she still had to have a good rtionship with Matteo after all...she still depended on him.


    Matteo sat down by the table with his papers and cell phone in front of him. His gaze did not move a bit


    and he did not even answer her. The smile on Alice''s face had vanished in an instant and then she


    slowly approached him.


    "It''s veryte. Why are you still working?"


    Matteo''s lips moved, "Ah yes."


    Obviously he had not cared about her appearance. Embarrassed, Alice stood motionless, biting her


    lower lip.


    Brother...He seemed to be indifferent to her. After so many years, there was still no change.


    Alice looked at her toes and her heart gradually sank.


    Matteo suddenly realized that the room seemed too quiet after she entered. He looked at Alice and saw


    her staring at her feet. Suddenly he thought he had been too cold to her.


    Thinking about it, Matteo nced at her skirt and then said in a deep voice, "Not bad."


    Hearing this, Alice abruptly raised her head and turned a surprised look to Matteo, "Matteo?"


    "The skirt. "Matteo said it, lowering his head again.


    Alice stayed there for a while before she suddenly reacted and replied with great joy in her eyes, "Do


    you really think it''s not bad? Thank you."


    After speaking, she walked over and sat down on a chair next to him and discovered that there was a


    small box neatly packed. Alice asked softly, "This box is so beautiful. What''s inside?"


    She just wanted to reach out to touch it, but was scolded by Matteo.


    "Don''t touch it!"


    His voice was cold, as ifing from the depths of ake, and she was shocked by Matteo.


    "Get out. "Matteo scolded.


    Alice lifted her head to meet his cold eyes. The expression on Matteo''s face was serious and almost


    fierce.


    Inexplicably, Alice felt pained and withdrew her hand. Then she stood up and whispered, "I, I know."


    Then she turned and ran out of the room.


    The expression on Matteo''s face remained the same. He raised his hand and dropped his fingertips on


    that beautiful and delicate little box.


    This was the dress he had asked Chiara to send to Serena, but Chiara said she could not get in touch


    with Serena. Moreover, she already had her own dress, so Chiara sent the box back. However, this


    dress was not an ordinary one and Matteo paid special attention to it.


    In the end, the dress would be Serena''s, so how could it be touched by others?


    Thinking about this, Matteo pulled out his phone and sent a message to Serena in Facebook.


    And after Alice ran out of the room and cried, she returned to her room without ever looking back.


    She had not thought of letting Matteoe to her, but the fact that Matteo was so heedless of his


    sister, which made her even sadder and even more scared.


    After all, her identity was stolen. From the day she became one part of the Giordano family, everyone


    saw her as the key figure. However, honor, as well as nightmares haunted her.


    She liked being respected by others. She liked scolding others who were unable to talk back to her.


    But at the same time, she feared that one day her identity would be revealed.


    Matteo was such a cold person. If Alice''s identity was exposed, she...would get nothing!


    From the moment she arrived at the Giordano family, Matteo had shown her everything but not


    epted herpletely.


    Thinking about this, Alice closed the door and her expression became somber.


    A ringing of the doorbell was heard.


    As soon as Serena fell asleep, she heard her phone ring. She moved her eyelids, did not have much


    strength and went back to sleep.


    When she woke up the next day, Serena realized that she had no strength in her legs and arms. It was


    probably because the effect of the medicine. She rubbed her eyebrows, lifted the quilt and got out of


    bed.


    "Mrs. Ferrari, you are awake."


    Suddenly a female voice rang out, which shocked Serena. Then she realized that it was the maid


    whom she had seen earlier in the vi. Her name seemed to be Giorgia Mancini or something like that?


    "What are you doing here?"


    Giorgia looked at her with a humble expression, "It was Mr. Cristian who told me to wait here for you to


    wake up. Here are the clean clothes and supplies. I''ll prepare breakfast."


    Serena looked in the direction she was pointing, and realized that there were several clothes and they


    were brand new.


    "Did Cristian buy them? "She asked unconsciously.


    Giorgia paused for a moment, then shook her head.


    "Mrs. Ferrari, I''m not sure but it was ordered by Mr. Cristian. He should have bought them personally.


    You''re so loved."


    Loved?


    Serena smiled bitterly. What did this word have to do with her?


    Giorgia went to prepare breakfast, and Serena got up after a while to wash and change. She chose to


    dress in the simplest style, then went to get her cell phone.

    As soon as she saw her phone, she discovered that she had many unread messages and calls on


    Facebook.


    Many of these had been sent by Anna. At first she was worried about her. Then she asked her how she


    was doing with Cristian. After closing those messages box, she saw one from Matteo.


    She opened it.


    Unexpectedly she heard Matteo''s voice.


    "I will ask my secretary to find time to send you the dress, or when do you have time?"


    Serena was speechless. The party was over. What was she supposed to do with the dress?


    Then she replied the message.


    "Thank you for your kindness, but the event was over. I no longer need a dress, so there is no need for


    you to spend money on me, Mr. Giordano."


    Obviously she did not expect Matteo to reply her. She just exined the misunderstanding.


    Last time she told Matteo not to send it to her, but he still asked Chiara to do so.


    A ringing of the bell was heard.


    Unexpectedly, she sent the message, and the recipient replied in seconds.
