75: Chapter 75: Go Beg Serena Sumrs 75: Chapter 75: Go Beg Serena Sumrs Marcus Sumrs opened his mouth, his face deathly pale and frightening.
He didn’t know how he managed to leave the private room.
All he knew was that he was utterly shad in front of Lucas Shaw.
Before coming here, Marcus had sworn to Grace that he would handle this matter well.
But now, the stubborn look on Serena’s face, silent yet injured, was deeply etched in his mind.
Although Serena often bullied Grace in the past, it was indeed Grace’s fans who were in the wrong this ti.
Serena was the victim.
What right did he have to ask Serena not to pursue this matter further?
And Lucas Shaw had made his stance clear.
The Shaw Family would not let this go easily.
Outside the hotel, the assistant saw Marcus coming out and quickly went up to greet him.
“Sir, how did it go?
Did you reach an agreent with Mr.
Lucas Shaw?”
Marcus irritably tugged at his tie and silently got into the car.
Seeing his troubled face, the assistant quickly shut his mouth, not daring to ask further.
As Marcus’s assistant, he naturally knew how much Marcus adored Grace.
Poor Miss Serena, brought back ho by her parents only to be exchanged for benefits.
Even if she cut ties with the Sumrs Family, she would still be troubled and hard.
However, he was just a lowly assistant.
These thoughts he dared only to keep in his mind.
Sitting in the driver’s seat, he occasionally glanced at Marcus through the rearview mirror, hesitating to speak.
Feeling his gaze, Marcus coldly spoke up: “If you have sothing to say, say it.”
“President, are you going back to the office first or ho?”
Marcus rubbed his tired brow and coldly replied, “Back to…
the office.”
Lucas Shaw would not let off the woman who had thrown hot water at Serena.
If this incident continued to fernt, Grace’s reputation would definitely be affected.
In a few days, it would be Grace and Everett Parker’s engagent party.
Nothing could go wrong at this critical juncture, or else the Parker Family would certainly be displeased.
Grace marrying into the Parker Family was already seen as reaching above her station, and Mrs.
Parker had a very strong-willed personality.
If this matter wasn’t resolved properly, Grace would surely be judged and criticized in the future.
Marcus sighed in frustration and leaned back in the car seat, pondering what to do.
Just then, his phone rang.
It was from Grace.
Marcus stared at the na flickering on the screen, suddenly feeling the urge to hang up.
But in the end, he pressed the answer button.
“Hello, Grace?
Why are you calling so late?”
“Big brother, did you go see Mr.
Lucas Shaw?
What did he say?” Grace asked urgently.
Michael Sumrs pursed his lips, silent for a mont.
Not hearing a response, Grace suddenly felt panicked and began to sob in distress.
“I know Sister won’t forgive , it’s right of Mr.
Shaw not to let off my fans, after all, he is Serena’s husband…”
Marcus was already irritable because of this matter.
Hearing Grace’s cries made him even more annoyed.
“Grace, I’ve seen the video online,” Marcus suddenly spoke up, interrupting Grace’s crying.
There was a sudden silence on the other end of the phone.
Marcus continued: “You previously told Serena wasn’t injured, but I saw the full video, the hot water splashed onto Serena’s arm.”
“Is that true?
Is Sister injured?
Is it serious?
Does she need to see a doctor?” Grace’s voice was full of surprise and concern.
For so reason, Marcus felt a sense of relief in his heart.
Thank goodness, it wasn’t what he thought.
He always knew that his sister was not the kind of person who would do anything to get her way.
“Grace, Mr.
Lucas Shaw is really concerned about Serena Sumrs; I’m afraid the Shaw Family won’t let this go easily.
Maybe we should think of another solution.”
“Big brother, I, I really can’t think of any other way…
everyone online is scolding now, if I don’t clarify things soon, I might be forced out of the circle!” Grace cried even harder.
Marcus Sumrs felt his heart break.
He leaned back in his chair, unsure of how to comfort Grace.
After a long silence, he slowly said, “Maybe you should beg Serena.
She is the person involved, if she steps out to clarify, this will be resolved quickly.”
“How could I do that!”
Grace almost didn’t hold back from screaming out loud.
She gripped her phone tightly, her eyes filled with anger and ferocity.
Ask her to beg that little wench Serena?
How could she!
She had sched tirelessly just to drive Serena away, how could she possibly go and beg her in a humble manner?
Impossible!
Grace narrowed her eyes slightly, her gaze filled with bitter resentnt.
Marcus sighed helplessly and said, “This is the best option we can think of right now.
Even if Serena has married into the Shaw Family, she certainly wouldn’t leave us without a bit of kindness, after all, we are her family.”
As soon as he finished speaking, Marcus suddenly froze.
His already pale complexion beca even more drained of color.
Family…
How could he forget, Serena had signed a severance contract with the Sumrs Family.
From now on, Serena was no longer a Sumrs.
At first, everyone in the Sumrs Family thought Serena had put forth the severance just to get the family’s attention.
But after waiting for several days, they never saw Serena co back to apologize.
That’s when they knew just how heartless Serena could be.
In fact, Marcus had felt soft-hearted towards Serena once before, even considering selling shares of Black Ink Corporation to save the Sumrs Group from bankruptcy.
But then Grace ca crying to him.
Under his persistent questioning, Grace finally told the truth.
Turns out, Serena had stolen her favorite necklace.
In that mont, any remaining softness Marcus felt toward Serena vanished completely.
“Grace, just listen.
Compared to your reputation, nothing else is important.”
Grace’s crying continued to echo in his ears, and Marcus felt both heartbroken and helpless.
Grace sobbed in silence, without saying a word.
Just as Marcus hesitated on whether to keep persuading her or not, he heard Evan Sumrs’ voice over the phone.
“Tomorrow, go to the Shaw Family and find Serena, I’ll accompany you.”
Grace’s voice, filled with a sense of grievance, faintly said, “But sister said she never wants to see again, I’m afraid that when the ti cos…”
Evan: “It’s fine, third brother will go with you.”
Marcus slowly let out a breath of relief.
The Sumrs Family.
After hanging up the phone, Grace looked at Evan with tearful eyes, her look pitiful.
“Third brother, I’m scared…
sister has always blad for taking away the love of dad, mom, and brother, she said she never wants to see again.”
“Don’t be afraid, I will go with you, Serena wouldn’t dare to do anything to you,” Evan said, tenderly stroking Grace’s hair, his voice soothing.
Seeing Grace looking so grievous and scared, Evan’s heart ached more than ever.
The next day, Evan was already waiting downstairs early in the morning.
However, Grace still hadn’t co down.
After waiting for roughly an hour more, Evan began to get a little impatient.
He looked at the ti on his wristwatch and hurriedly went upstairs to Grace’s bedroom door.
“Grace, are you ready?”
Silence was the only reply.
