Chapter 657

Some guests saw Serenity coming in and exclaimed immediately, “Oh, look who’s here! I used to think that Serenity was the most successful in the Walker family. Who would’ve known? She has now ended up being the worst. Lynette has turned out to be the most successful in the family.”

The guest was belittling Serenity to flatter Lynette, which was what Lynette would have loved to hear before. Everyone had always compared Lynette and Serenity to each other. They were close in age and looked so much alike when they were young.

Serenity had been one of the brightest kids at school. She was good at her studies and had gone to a prestigious university. Lynette, who was less educated, was naturally ashamed by the comparison.

Luckily, you’re lucky enough to have saved Mr. Gomez as a kid. He’s been looking for you for so many years. I’m sure you’ll have a good life after this.”
