Virginity in second marriages by Angela
Chapter 442: An act with intention

-I have my shoes, all right.

Serena approached the model on the floor without expression, thought for a moment and said to Anna, -Don't come in here, bring me a set of gloves first.

Anna was about to enter, but hearing what he had said, she had to turn around and go get the gloves for herself.

So only Arianna and Serena were left on the scene.

Arianna finally calmed down, wiped the tears from her face and looked at Serena, -Will you go get the dress? But it's already damaged, so even if you pick it up, it won't do much good, will it?

Serena looked at her sideways.

-Who says it won't do any good?

Hearing this, Ariadne was stunned, -What do you mean?

-Serena looked around with a calm face, then whispered, -Tell me first how you found this place in this state."

Arianna curled her lips, -Yesterday I was so happy that I bought everyone a drink, and besides, it was the first time my work was displayed in the exhibition hall, and even though it was a hall that no one visited it was something I had to be happy about. So, I took another look at the dress, and it was fine when I looked at it, and when I looked at it again this morning, it was in this state, and I think Anna is right, someone probably came in and damaged the place like this.

-Serena giggled, "Do you think... a home invasion would do that much?

Arianna gasped, -What do you mean?

-If it's a home invasion, then it's a thief trying to steal some property. But if it was a thief trying to steal property, why did they destroy the place like this?

Arianna blinked, -Maybe, upset because there are no belongings in the company?

-If you were a thief and stole something from this company, would you get angry at midnight and break all the glass, including the contents, to attract the residents next door? -No, how could I be so stupid? These things are so loud when they hit the ground, they could easily attract people.

At that moment, Arianna gasped, suddenly thinking about something.

-Couldn't it be that someone broke into the house and stole something, but..." She looked at Serena with wide eyes.

Serena did not lift her, however, and just then Anna brought the gloves closer, and when Serena had put them on she bent down and gently pushed the glass fragments off the top of the gown, then rescued it from the mess.

When she came out with the gown, Anna and Ariadne tried to pick it up, Serena frowned and said:

-Don't touch it, there might still be some broken glass not cleaned, don't hurt your hands.

So Anna and Arianna had to retreat to the side and wait.

Finding an empty space, Serena was able to leave her dress and remove her gloves. -Serena, your leg hurts,II Anna noticed some bloodstains near her pale ankle, Serena did not feel any pain so she did not worry, -It is not a problem, there is probably a lot of glass hidden inside the construction site, we will have to replace it and retrieve it, II Arianna squatted beside her.

Arianna crouched beside her with a dejected look.

-But what will happen when we replace it? The dress is torn, and that presentation event Isabella is attending is in a few days, so we don't have time to rush to make a new one, do we?

Anna also crouched beside her, looking at the damaged work in front of her, her eyebrows furrowed beside her, "Serena, what do we do? This work is badly damaged and time is of the essence, do we have a chance to repair it this time?

Serena looked at the destroyed dress in front of her and became a little depressed, but not depressed enough to go anywhere, and was silent for a moment before saying, "Let's get the glass shards out first, and we'll talk about the rest later."

She was very quiet and calm, but this was also very abnormal, after all, the dress had turned into this form, both Anna and Arianna could not be anxious, Anna had been following her for a long time, so it was fine, but Arianna was different, after all, she had just met Serena not long ago, seeing this bland look, her heart was angry, she said directly, "Later? What do you say? Even the dress is torn, why don't you care at all? This is the launch dress that our company is going to give Isabella, do you have a countermeasure?

-No. Serena said sincerely.

How could she think of an answer right away when things had just happened and her mind was in chaos?

But the current issue should also be addressed urgently, and a countermeasure would be thought of when it was over.

-So you haven't panicked yet," Arianna sniffed herself.

-Will panic solve the problem? Will you be able to get the glass shards out of there? Stop the bullshit and move to handle it quickly.

Anna also whispered to Arianna, _Do what Serena said, this is your product, but don't forget that Serena is the head of the company, she is the one who takes the onus if something happens.

Only when Anna said this did Arianna also seem to respond, which led her to nod and carefully pick up the glass shards inside her work.

When she finished, Serena said in a cold voice, "When you come back, go on with your business as usual and pretend nothing is going on."

-Arianna's eyes widened in disbelief, but seeing Serena's calm demeanor, she felt she had to believe her, so she nodded and reached out to wipe away the traces of undried tears. -I know, and by the way, I wasn't crying a moment ago, I just got distressed for a moment and saw my work broken like that.

Serena, -I understand, let's go.

Serena carried the dress to her office alone, then sat in her chair and stared at the dress. The person who destroyed the dress had intended to do that, because the dress was the silk type, and she certainly wouldn't be able to wear it when she encountered something sharp like that, so the damage was severe at this point.

With a bit of a headache, Serena stood up and frowned.

Suddenly, her cell phone rang.

Serena glanced over to see that it was a message from Isabella for her.

Isabella: Oh my goodness, I heard my dress is ready....

Serena was a little spellbound at the sight of her name, it was discouraging that she had not shown up when she had been asked to come earlier, and now that her dress was ruined, she was coming to ask. Serena pondered for a moment and sent a message too: It's ready, it's in the showroom on the sixth floor}.

At the thought, her eyes misted over and she typed another line and sent it:

But there was a little accident.

Isabella: What accident? Don't scare me!

She followed it with an emoji of horror, which made Serena hesitate for a moment, undecided whether it was better to tell him or just snap and send him a picture.
