NovelOnline"I've got to be the one to see the guests off. You can count on me, | won't overdo it. I'll be with you as soon as | can," Serena said,
understanding his need for her presence. "I know you needright now, and withby your side, things will seem a little
easier."
"Serena." Martin's eyes welled up with emotion, touched by her kindness.
"Just wait for me." Serena ended the call, instructed a team of stylists to help her into a more glamorous wedding gown and
adorned herself with a fresh set of sparkling jewelry before taking the stage to deliver her speech.
The guests had finished their meals and on their way out, each received a parting gift that was quite the token of appreciation.
Propped up by a support chair hidden beneath her wedding dress, Serena bid farewell to each guest. Then, she had Dora help her
into something more comfortable and set off for the hospital.
Meanwhile, Joyce was sharing her latest book obsession in a group chat with her besties.
"Ladies, I'm totally hooked on this 'Chasing Love with Regret'! It's a must-read. If you're not into following serials, maybe wait
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtuntil February 29th - the author says it's wrapping up then."
"I'm all caught up with the latest chapter," Mya chimed in. "The mastermind still hasn't shown up. The author mentioned that
nobody in the comments has guessed it right. The real boss is going to be a total shocker. Joyce, who do you think it could be?"
"I just hope it's not someone close to the heroine, or I'll cry my eyes out!" Joyce couldn't help but say. "I wish the author would drop
the remaining chapters all at once. Two chapters a day is such a tease."
"They probably have a rule about only releasing two chapters daily. But imagine if Bella gave it a glance. With her smarts, she'd
guess the mastermind in no time. But with over a thousand chapters, | doubt she has the tto catch up."
"Who says?" Kelly responded. "Bella can speed-read like nobody's business. What takes you ten days, she does in less than one.
But yeah, she's been swamped lately, hardly has a moment to herself."
"That's a shame. Hey Kelly, why don't you give it a read and helpanalyze who the mastermind could be?"
Arabella was just about to reply to the chat when her phone rang.
"Boss, we've located Stinger. He's at the airport with a fake identity, heading to Baradocia. His flight takes off in an hour."
Catching him would be a whole lot harder once he left the country.
Arabella stood up immediately and said, "Meetat the airport."
"Roger that."
On the other side of town.
Serena had just arrived at the hospital when she received a message.
[I'm at the airport now.]
A triumphant glint flashed in Serena's eyes as she replied, [Once the dust settles, I'll let you know when to cback to the
country.]

[Okay.]
She deleted the chat history and entered the emergency building.
Just then, the doors of the operating room swung open, and doctors emerged, pushing Florence on a gurney.
Martin rushed forward to ask, "How's my mom doing?"
He saw his mother's bruised face, her eyes closed, unconscious.
In just a few days, she had becso gaunt.
"The patient has a pre-existing heart condition and is of advanced age. She has multiple fractures and internal injuries. We've
saved her life, but whether she can wake up, whether she'll beccomatose or suffer any cognitive or memory deficits, that's
now in her own hands. We've done all we can."
Hearing the doctor's words, Martin felt a bittersweet relief. He was glad his mother's life was saved, but the prospect of her living in
a vegetative state or with diminished mental faculties weighed heavy on his heart.
