Chapter 1089


    Sera darted Yumi a mysterious and subtle nce before leaving with a smile.


    At this very moment, she did not feel as suffocated or stifled anymore. Even her footsteps had


    be feather-light.


    Yumi s hand moved to her red lips, a poisonous sneer brimming from her eyes.


    "Oh, Angeline. Even if Sera fails, I''m sure that your body won''t be able to withstand the pressure


    over and over again, right? When you’re finally blind and deaf, I''m curious to see how you’re


    nning to run Grand Asia?


    "What you''ve seized from me, I will make sure you pay it back with interest."


    The next day.


    Sera appeared in Chrysoprase Vi, Imperial Capital.


    Chrysoprase Vi was another vi that Angeline had prepared for the Ares family. Although it was


    not as big as Tourmaline Estate, it was more than enough for the Ares family to live safely and in


    peace.


    Perhaps it was because of the loss of their grandson or perhaps the Ares family had learned their


    lesson, so they had been keeping a low profile in the past few


    years as to not attract Doomsday Organization''s attention.


    Apart from a few young grandchildren who were out there managing Ares Films, the elders were


    practically living in seclusion while making very minimal social contact all year round.


    Sera''s arrival had sparked a debate over at the first wife''s family.


    When someone came to report it to Jack and his wife, Jack’splexion darkened at once. 1


    "Does she think that the Ares'' residence is a ce where she cane and go as she likes?"


    Madam Ares''plexion dimmed. Feeling hard-pressed and in distress, she consoled Jack and


    said," Why don''t we meet her and find out why she''s really here, Old Master Ares?"


    Jack red at Madam Ares viciously. "I know what you''re thinking about. Perhaps I should remind


    you that she''s your daughter and you’re the mistress of the Ares family. If you collude with her and


    do something harmful to others, then you''ll only be ruining the Ares family’s reputation. If that


    happens, I don''t care whether you''re my wife or not. I''ll drive you out of the Ares family either way."


    Madam Ares shuddered a little, then looked a little mad. "I''ve been with you for so many years, Old


    Master Ares, and yet you can’t tell where my loyalty lies?"


    Jack snorted coldly. "I trust you, but I don''t trust Sera.


    N?velDrama.Org owns this text.


    She''s full of bad ideas and I''m afraid that she will lead you by the nose."


    Madam Ares replied, "I won''t be influenced."


    Jack nced at Madam Ares and sighed heavily." Fine, go and see her, thene back quickly."


    Madam Ares looked delighted. "Okay."


    Madam Ares met up with Sera at the outdoor pavilion.


    Sera looked haggard and scrawny. The moment she saw Madam Ares, her eyes turned pink at


    once. She looked as though she had suffered a lot of grievances. She embraced Madam Ares and


    started bawling her eyes out.


    "Madam Ares."


    There was no denying that Sera was her daughter.


    Hence, when she heard Sera''s heartbreaking cries, Madam Ares felt like a knife was being twisted


    in her heart.


    "What''s wrong, Sera?"


    "Life is hard, Madam Ares."


    As though an ice current had washed across every part of her body, Madam Ares felt very much


    tormented.


    "Why don’t you sit down and slowly talk me through i t?"


    With her face covered in tears, Sera started giving a recount of her life in the Severe family in the


    past


    three years.


    "I didn’t know better back then and went against your advice to leave the Ares family. Initially, I


    thought that my parents would ept me regardless of what I''ve done in the past because they''re


    my birth family after all, yet who would’ve thought..."


    Sera sobbed. "My father has been treating me indifferently since then, whereas my mother speaks t


    o me harshly every day. Now that Angeline is Grand Asia''s president, everyone in the Severe family


    is at her beck and call. As Angeline is angry at me for loving Jay, she does everything possible to


    make things difficult for me. I can''t stay in that house anymore."


    Madam Ares was furious. She mmed the coffee table and stood up. "As the president of Grand


    Asia, how can Angeline be so narrow-minded? What a bitter disappointmentpared to JJ."


    With a thud, Sera fell to her knees and started pleading with Madam Ares piteously. "I know you


    care for me, Madam Ares. Please, please help me.”


    How could Madam Ares not feel heartbroken when she saw the tears streaming down Sera’s face?


    This was her biological daughter!
