NovelOnlineThe crowd was buzzing with disbelief and shock.
[Serena, of all people, still has suitors? Is her allure really that irresistible?] [Who the heck is Martin? Never heard of this guy before.] [Does anyone have the scoop? I'm drawing a blank here.] [Good heavens, you don't know about the Coopers? The Cooper family owns department stores all over the world, with over six thousand locations and a workforce of over two hundred thousand. Martin leveraged his family's resources to start his own logistics company. Just last year, he successfully raised funds, acquired a fleet of fifty cargo planes, and secured exclusive air routes. His business reaches every corner of the country, setting the pace in the industry, and it's seriously outperforming the competition. That delivery service you all love when you shop online? Yeah, that's his baby!] With the Coopers and Martin's momentum, it seemed likely they could outpace the Collins family within five to seven years. And then, the blogger dropped a photo of Martin.
[Goodness, is Martin that handsome? He's got this wealthy heir vibe but also looks so composed.] [Is he blind? Why would he go for someone like Serena?] [How did Serena get so lucky to land a guy like him?] [I went to middle school with Serena. Martin has been chasing her since the seventh grade, all the way through our freshman year of college a whopping six and a half years. Everyone at our schoot knew he was head over heels for her.] [So, did Martin orchestrate this whole thing? Did he see Arabella's grand comeback party and decide to get revenge on behalf of his girlfriend by tampering with the award-winning car. That's just terrifying!] Meanwhile, Florence was fuming as she scrolled through the online comment, especially the cringeworthy video of Serena hugging a tree during her confession of love.
She was about to call her son when, the next second, he called her.
"Mom, I need to talk to you." Martin didn't wait for her to speak, "I want to get engaged to Serena as soon as possible. I want to give her a home, and I hope you and Dad can bless this." "Martin, you've been hoodwinked-completely out of your mind! Have you seen the news? That girl is trouble!" Florence clutched her chest in anger, and Diana hurried over to rub her back soothingly.
"Mom, the past is the past. Serena said she'll change. Let's give her a chance." Martin's plea was cut off.
"Not a chance! The Cooper family will never welcsomeone like her. I've told you, if you dare marry her, I'll jump into the river on your wedding day—I didn't raise you to be trampled on by others!" Florence was struggling to catch her breath, "Martin, your grandfather is already displeased with you. The other heirs are just looking for a chance to knock you off your pedestal, and here you are, making mockery of our family over elher! You think having your own company is enough? You're being naive!" Her voice trembled with fury, "Once the other heirs take over, you'll know what it means to be attacked from all sides. Now, your two associates are dead, pointing right back at you-you're in hot water! Instead of dealing with this mess and proving yourself to your grandfather, you're thinking of getting engaged? How did I give birth to such a fool?"
