Chapter 939: The Wedding Needs to Be Postponed

When Hayden walked in, this was the scene he stumbled upon.

Mr. Farrell was lying on the sofa, half-naked, with a shy expression on his face. In front of him was Serena, her eyes gleaming as she aimed her phone at Jared. The look in her eyes was ravenous, as if she wanted to devour him whole. Hayden froze in place.

He had only been gone for ten minutes at most-how had things escalated this quickly? Were they always this bold?

The mood in the room was instantly shattered. Serena shot Hayden a sharp glare, clearly displeased. "Get out!"

Startled, Hayden's mind went blank, and all his wild thoughts vanished. He stammered, "Serena, I didn't see anything! I just came to drop off the car keys..."

He tossed the car keys toward the entryway and quickly retreated, not even bothering to close the door properly on his way out.

Once outside, he exhaled heavily, his heart finally settling.

Leave it to Serena-her methods were always beyond his comprehension. Poor Mr. Farrell, though... Once Serena had her sights set on someone, there was no saving them. Inside, Serena snapped a few photos with her phone before setting it aside. She picked up a cotton swab and began tending to the scrapes on Jared's arm and shoulder. When she was done, Serena sighed softly, finally voicing what she had been holding back during their entire car ride. "Uncle, our wedding might need to be postponed." Jared turned to her, his gaze steady. "Your father still doesn't approve?"

Serena's lips twitched slightly. "It's not just my dad this time. My four uncles have also weighed in. They want the wedding to be grander. My mom's wedding already caught them off guard, and now that it's my turn, they're determined to properly prepare for it."

Jared thought for a moment before pulling her into his arms, holding her close. "I understand."

The strong, steady beat of his heart reached her ears. Serena nuzzled against the warmth of his embrace. "Uncle, you're so good to me."

Jared ran his hand gently through her hair, his eyes filled with tenderness. "I'm only good to you."

"But leave the wedding arrangements to me. I'll satisfy your father and uncles' demands one by one, but the wedding date stays as planned."

Serena looked up at him, surprised. "Uncle, do you really think you can convince them?"

"Where there's a will, there's a way," Jared replied. He tapped the tip of her nose lightly. "Your brothers were no match for me-what could be harder than dealing with them?"
