âDiana is my sister.â Xeno was also surprised as he stepped aside to make way for Serenity and Sam to enter the house.
Diana was sitting on the sofa watching cartoons with her daughter. When she saw them, Diana beamed with joy. âQuick, sit down. Quinn, say hi to Ms. Serenity and Mr. Sam.â
Quinn greeted the two newcomers with her adorable face and marble-like eyes. âHello, Mr. Sam and Ms. Serenity.â
Serenity placed the gifts in her hands on the coffee table and patted Quinnâs head. âGood girl.â
âQuinn, wanna doodle with me?â asked Xeno to his niece.
âNo, I want to watch TV,â said Quinn, pouting.
âYour mom wants to talk to our guests. Good kids shouldnât disturb them,â said Xeno, trying to persuade his niece.
Quinn pursed her lips as she was overcome with a dilemma â she wanted to watch TV but she didnât want to be a bad child. In the end, she gave in and let her uncle carry her away.
Xeno brought Quinn to the room, leaving the three in the living room. Serenity apologetically said, âMs. Lewis, I heard about what happened. Iâm sorry.â
âWell, it just means that I have more time to rest and spend with my daughter.â Diana smiled.
Serenity wished Diana and Sam scolded her as it would make her feel better. The more they acted like they were fine, the more upset she felt. âI heard that you want to set up your own magazine agency?â
Diana nodded. âActually, Iâve had this idea for a long time. I just couldnât make up my mind. So, I have to thank President Jones for this.â
Serenity didnât know what to say as she pursed her lips. âIf you need any help, just let me know.â
Sam nudged Serenityâs arm lightly and grinned. âWhen the magazine is established, you can come work with us. Weâll make the best work buddies! How about it?â
It wasnât such a bad idea to Serenity. However, it was unrealistic at the moment. âThat will have to wait until I give birth.â
Sam glanced at her belly. âOh, right, right. Giving birth is a big deal. Weâll talk about the rest later.â
âI didnât expect you to marry President Jones.â Diana was still a little surprised.
âIt happened not long ago. So not many people know about it yet,â said she gently.
âHeâs very worried about you,â Diana commented on her marriage like an old friend would. âEspecially for a man with status like him. If he can do anything for you, it means that youâve married a good husband.â
âThank you,â said Serenity gently.
It was already nine oâclock by the time they left Dianaâs place with Xeno. Since the two men lived on the same road, Xeno offered to drive Sam back.
âGet in the car first,â said Xeno to Sam. âIâm going to buy a pack of cigarettes.â
Sam got into the car and waited but Xeno did not walk towards the convenience store. Instead, he walked over and knocked on Serenityâs car window.
Serenity rolled down the car window and looked at him in surprise. âMr. Lewis, whatâs the matter?â
Xeno had always looked serious, perhaps because he was a lawyer. Calmly, he said, âYoung Madam, I know you used to work with my sister, but you should try to avoid contact with her in the future.â
It did not sound like a warning, but the meaning of his words was clear â he did not want her to have anything to do with Diana.
Serenity said, âItâs my fault. Iâm sorry.â
Xeno knew he could not blame her for what happened. After all, Serenity had almost lost her life. âLetâs not talk about the past, but the two of you should not interact with each other anymore. I hope you understand what I mean..â
