Chapter 256

Serena was caught off guard by Cole's sudden move, but she quickly regained her composure.

Meeting his teasing gaze, she let out a soft chuckle.

"I'm doing this because I want to. I'm sure your fiancée, Regina, would be more than happy to do the same for you. Besides, you don't look busy at all. I'm sure you can get whatever you want without needing someone to bring it to you."

"I didn't mean it like that..."

Cole's mind was in turmoil as he raised a hand to his face. Serena's mention of Regina's name lingered in his thoughts, and his gaze slowly turned cold.
