Chapter 108

The sound of voices and music filled the air, with Zach's voice standing out the most.

Zach was anxious, and his sleeve was wrinkled from being pulled. His hair, once carefully styled with gel, now fell loosely to the side. His eyes were filled with worry.

Serena felt like it had been a lifetime since he had called her like that. Back then, Zach had always urgently comforted her, explaining how fragile Wendy's health was, hoping that Serena would understand and make concessions.

Now, he had turned away from Wendy and walked toward her. It was as if he was saying that Serena was now more important than Wendy.

But Serena no longer cared.

Facing her ex-boyfriend who still saw her as a "mistress“, she merely looked at him as if he were a fool.

"This is my seat," she said as she pulled out the gold-embossed invitation.

These invitations were all specially made for the guests by the event organizers, exclusively for VIP seating.

Zach's eyes flashed with surprise. He hadn't expected Hugh to go this far for a mistress.

The invitation flipped in Serena's hand before landing back on her lap, and she smiled. "I've always known my place, Mr. Foster. You should know yours as well."

The old feelings were long gone. Serena had no intention of looking back.

Serena's eyes were distant, a clear message to Zach that she wanted nothing to do with him

anymore.

“Serena, Zach is just worried about you being targeted by Mrs. Larson. You shouldn't be mad at him," Wendy interjected, walking up to her side.

In public, she still maintained her innocent and delicate image, her light green off- shoulder dress accentuating her graceful beauty.

She picked up ass of champagne and leaned in toward Serena.

Serena, I know Zach misunderstood you before because of my asthma attack. I want to apologize for that..."

The champagne glass wobbled. Half the glass of champagne spilled perfectly, soaking the silver satin gown Serena wore, the droplets falling steadily down.

Serena furrowed her brows.
