Cupid's Arrow hit me hard!
Married At First Sight By Gu Lingfei Chapter 294

Chapter 294 Several cars drove along and quickly pulled up in front of Serenity's bookshop. Serenity and Jasmine, who had just entered the shop, looked at the fleet of cars. Serenity's face fell when her keen eye caught the cars belonging to her cousins. These people were relentless.

With Mike leading the younger pack, they walked into the

shop.

They came bearing two baskets of fruits each. "Serenity."

With a smile on his face, Mike put his baskets of fruits on the cash register and said to Serenity, "I bought you and your sister some fresh fruits."

Spotting Sonny, he asked, "Is this your sister's son? He looks like your sister."

He then reached out to stroke Sonny's head, but Sonny shied away, refusing to let the man touch him. Mike responded with a grin, "Don't be scared, little guy. I'm your uncle."

The rest wanted to place the other fruit baskets on the cash register but since there was no more room on the counter, they placed them on the floor instead. Serenity asked faintly, "What brings you here? I'd advise you to give up if you're trying to make me pay."

"Aren't you going to invite us to have a seat, Serenity?"

John kept a smile on his arrogant face. Out of all his cousins and brothers, he was most successful as his annual salary was more than a million bucks. This was what he took pride in. He barely looked straight at Serenity when he came to look for her the first time.

He had been suspended from work for a while now. There was no telling when he could return to work. There was still a possibility that he might lose his job.

His brothers, cousins, uncles, and parents had also hit a low point in their careers and businesses. They would be screwed if their savings were not keeping them afloat.

They would not be able to hold out for long.

If Serenity and Liberty refused to reconcile, their hard-earned family assets that had been around for two generations would be lost.

His youngest cousin, Noah, was still detained in prison. They tried to bail him out, but no amount of money could persuade the authorities to let Noah go.

It must be the doing of the force behind Serenity.

After much discussion among the Hunts, they decided to make nice with Serenity and Liberty while figuring out the identity of Serenity's ally so they could undermine Serenity's bond with her ally. Once that was done, they could get even with Serenity and then some! Serenity said callously, "I don't have that many chairs in the shop. You can sit on the floor if you don't mind." Ignoring the

stiffened smiles across her cousins' faces, she added, "The floor isn't dirty. I'd usually mop once a week."

The Hunt boys were speechless.

Jasmine sniggered.

Truth be told, they mopped the floor every day, especially with Sonny around now. Sonny was a kid, and he often enjoyed playing with his toys on the floor. That was why the floor was kept clean. Swallowing his anger, Mike curled his lips and replied, "We're here today to apologize to you and your sister. Is your sister here?"

"My sister isn't around. You can just tell me what you have to

say."

Serenity glanced at the fruit baskets before putting on a fake smile. "Is this your apology? So, a few fruit baskets to make up for the slander on Twitter and the damage you've done to me and my sister?" After Serenity retaliated online, the Hunts hired a lot of professional trolls to whitewash themselves and accuse Serenity and Liberty of being ungrateful granddaughters. The enraged netizens were the ones who attacked the trolls and caused the Hunts' plans to fail.

Serenity and Liberty earned everybody's pity following the twist of events. Still, there were people who claimed the moral high ground, saying that despite the negligence and wrongdoings of Serenity and Liberty's grandparents, they were still the girls' grandparents.

Without the grandparents, their father would not have

existed, and neither would the girls.

These people demanded Liberty and Serenity let go of the past and pay for their grandmother's medical fees. They should not be petty with a sick old lady.

Serenity and her sister's reputation had, more or less, been dragged through the mud.
