37: Chapter 37 Trending on the Hot Search 37: Chapter 37 Trending on the Hot Search Grace Sumrs listened boredly while aimlessly browsing on her phone.
She was about to check if the fashion bloggers she recently followed had posted anything on Twitter, when she saw the trending searches.
Several of them were related to Shaw Group.
Grace furrowed her brows and clicked on the trending list, and she couldn’t help but exclaim.
Mrs.
Sumrs was startled by her daughter’s scream and said reproachfully while patting her chest, “Grace, you scared Mom.
What happened?”
Seeing Grace’s disturbed expression, Mrs.
Sumrs leaned in, full of concern.
Although Grace was not her biological daughter, she had raised her.
Grace had always been well-behaved, sensible, and gently considerate.
What made her most proud was that Grace was very successful; at a young age, she had entered the entertainnt industry and beca a popular young celebrity.
Though it was partly because Mr.
Sumrs continuously invested money in her career, Grace was ambitious and, while she hadn’t beco a massive star, she had garnered a considerable fanbase.
This was one of the reasons why Mr.
Sumrs refused to let Grace be the one to go through with the marriage rite and instead chose Serena Sumrs.
Grace was a public figure; her participating in the marriage rite would definitely cause a significant outcry.
This would bring trouble upon the Sumrs Family, and the Parker Family, who had arranged a marriage alliance, definitely wouldn’t let things go easily.
It was a pity that Serena couldn’t understand her parents’ position, only knowing how to throw temper tantrums.
Since Serena had run away from ho, there had been no news from her.
Compared to Grace, Serena was just on a completely different level—like heaven and earth, incomparable.
While lost in thought, Grace suddenly passed her phone over with a trembling voice and said anxiously, “Mom, sothing’s happened!
Look at the trending searches!”
Mrs.
Sumrs took the phone and was imdiately shocked.
Twitter trending topic: #Lucas Shaw, President of Shaw Group, is married#
#Shaw Group employees’ bonuses double#
The most eye-catching topic was at the top, marked with a red “Explosive” sign.
In recent years, although Lucas Shaw was very mysterious and low-key, Shaw Group was nearly a household na.
Shaw Group products were everywhere in people’s lives, so Lucas Shaw, the president of Shaw Group, also beca a person of great interest.
After all, Lucas Shaw was young and handso.
A blurry photo had circulated online half a year ago, and everyone was amazed.
Lucas Shaw had fine and deep-set features, with sharp brows and bright eyes, and his thin lips were slightly pursed, exuding an aura of authority that was intimidating, making people dare not et his eyes, as cold and dark as a falcon’s.
Even though the photo was sowhat blurry, it still couldn’t hide his handso features and deep chiseled profile.
With such looks, he was no less attractive than any top celebrity in the entertainnt industry.
Thus, just by one blurry photo, Lucas Shaw had attracted countless fans.
Mrs.
Sumrs said subconsciously, “This, this must be fake, right?
How could Lucas Shaw possibly…”
Grace bit her lip and looked anxiously at Mrs.
Sumrs, “Mom, what do you think the Shaw Family is trying to do?
Didn’t Dad say that the Shaw Family had already agreed to invest in our company?”
Grace lowered her eyes, a sly gleam passing through them.
If the Shaw Family didn’t think much of Serena, would her father push her out instead?
No!
Absolutely not!
She didn’t want to marry Lucas Shaw, that sickly man!
There was a rumor that Lucas Shaw was hanging on by a thread, not expected to live much longer.
If she married him, it would an living as a widow.
At this thought, Grace’s heart leaped, and she quickly put on an indignant look.
With furrowed brows and her face full of makeup showing anger, she said, “How could the Shaw Family do this!
They had already agreed to the marriage rite, and just a few days later, news of being married cos out.
It seems they never took Dad seriously!”
Mr.
Sumrs had just co back when he overheard Grace’s indignant words.
His heart ward imdiately, feeling that his previous choices were absolutely correct.
Grace was his little padded jacket, so to speak.
As for Serena…
Her unlikable character was one thing, but she had the audacity to sever ties with him.
The epito of selfishness!
Mr.
Sumrs walked into the living room, cleared his throat lightly, and warned Grace in a low voice, “Grace, so things can be said at ho, but you must not speak carelessly outside.”
The Shaw Family was not to be trifled with.
If the Shaw Family wanted to break the contract, he would have no choice but to accept it.
Grace playfully stuck out her tongue, looking innocent and charming, “Dad, don’t worry, I know my limits.”
Her eyes shifted slightly, probing, “Dad, why don’t you let my sister move back in?
She was just being impulsive; it’s not like she can really defy your wishes.”
Upon hearing this, Mr.
Sumrs felt his anger flare up suddenly.
“Forget about her.
Having signed that agreent, I have no relationship with that ungrateful girl anymore.
Even if she dies out there, it’s the bed she made for herself!”
The re thought of Serena made his blood boil.
As a mber of the Sumrs Family, isn’t it her duty to contribute sothing to the family?
After spending so many years in the countryside, she hasn’t learned a single bit of discipline.
Such selfishness, only thinking about herself, she doesn’t deserve to be Henry Sumrs’ daughter!
Mr.
Sumrs looked at Grace with a gentle gaze, “Grace, don’t worry, to the Sumrs Family, you are our only daughter.
There’s no need to worry about Serena, I will make a call down to the Shaw Family today.”
Upon hearing this, Grace felt a surge of joy “Dad, you are so good to !
Thank you.”
Watching the adoring look in Grace’s eyes, Mr.
Sumrs felt a sense of pride well up inside him.
He puffed out his chest and whispered to Grace, “Thanking for what?
You are my daughter, it’s only right that I treat you well.”
Mrs.
Sumrs, who had been silent for a long ti, felt a tinge of sourness in her eyes.
How great would it have been if Serena had been as well-behaved and sensible as Grace?
If only…
As Mrs.
Sumrs pondered, suddenly she felt a soft embrace.
Grace had thrown herself into her arms, cuddling affectionately, full of adoration.
Mrs.
Sumrs imdiately put thoughts of Serena out of her mind, tenderly and lovingly stroked Grace’s hair.
She still had Grace.
She still had three sons.
As for Serena, she might as well pretend she never had that child.
On the other hand.
Serena had no idea that she was gradually being written out of her biological parents’ hearts.
After fixing her hair, she left the washroom feeling a bit stifled and decided to go for a walk.
Along the way, Serena received countless glances of astonishnt and envious jealousy.
However, upon seeing her, most people showed a friendly smile and respectfully addressed her as “Mrs.
President.”
Yet, as she passed by the administrative departnt, Serena keenly sensed several cold and angry stares.
Those looks seed as if they wanted to tear her to pieces.
Filled with intense loathing and resentnt.
Serena turned her head and saw Luna White sitting in front of the computer, red-eyed and looking extrely aggrieved.
Sitting beside her were two n, roughly in their late twenties.
