Burn the Marriage, Keep the Crown

Chapter 208

Chapter 209

After helping a few colleagues with their own headaches, Serena finally managed to track down Keeley, the watch repairman.

She handed over the newly restored Omega for him to see.

But she didn't dare admit she'd fixed it herself.

"Keeley, what do you think of the repair job on this watch?"

Keeley blinked in surprise as soon as he laid eyes on it, then looked up sharply. "Where did you get this watch?"

Serena looked genuinely puzzled. "Oh... A friend gave it to me."

Keeley sucked in a breath, his eyes wide. "That friend of yours-by any chance, is their last name Grayson?"

Serena's jaw dropped. "How did you know?"

A gleam flashed in Keeley's grin, showing off a gold tooth. "This is the keepsake Mrs. Grayson gave to Young Master William Grayson's father. When William's parents got married, it was the talk of all Northspire. The wedding gifts alone filled a dozen trucks. But for old Keeley here, only this watch ever caught my eye."

Serena's mind went blank.

Never in her wildest dreams had she imagined that this battered old watch was the symbol of William's parents' love.
