Chapter 55

"I'll be out for a bit! Be right back."

Aaron left Rosewood Gardens with his phone in hand, while Serena continued her meal, head lowered, as if nothing had transpired. Yet, when she reached for a napkin, her hand trembled slightly.

After finishing her meal, Serena retreated to her room. Despite not intending to pursue Aaron anymore, the sting of watching him run back to Cynthia Lynwood over and over, after seven years of love, was unavoidable.

She submerged herself in the bathtub, letting the warm water soothe her, drifting away from reality.

When she emerged from her bath, it was already eleven o'clock at night. The house was silent. Aaron hadn't returned, as expected.

Serena changed into her pajamas and lay down, scrolling through her phone as part of her nightly routine before sleep. But then-

She saw a message from Cynthia Lynwood.

"Serena, don't get too comfortable. Even though Aaron made the Mitchell family go bankrupt for your sake, I'm still more important to him than you are."
