Serena rubbed her eyes, worried that she had hallucination!
Unexpectedly, it was really an invitation card with a wedding photo of Clara and Sammy on it.
She opened it and saw the name “Derek”.
“Great Demon King! He received an invitation, why didn’t he tell me?”
Serena kissed the card. Now she got everything she wanted, she could start her own plan.
She got up quickly, brushed her teeth and washed her face.
Serena randomly took a pair of jeans and a T-shirt from the wardrobe and put them on before leaving the room.
Henry stood at the door respectfully, which surprised Serena when she came out, “Mr. Henry?”
“Ms. Serena, you should have received the invitation, right? Molly should have stealthily put it on the bedside table for you last night.”
“Ah, I got it!”
Henry smiled. “It was Mr. Derek who instructed me not to give you the card until this morning. More than that, Mr. Derek left Ms. Serena a pleasant surprise.”
“Surprise?”
“Please follow me, Ms. Serena.” As Henry spoke, he brought Serena into the living room.
There were lots of servants in the living room, huddling and discussing, and Serena seemed to hear exclamations of admiration.
“What are they looking at?”
Hearing Serena’s voice, the servants moved aside one after another, and a gorgeous dress appeared in front of Serena.
It was a light pink gown whose upper part was hollow. The design of off shoulder was retro. The pink gauze gown was decorated with small flowers. There was a small gem in the center of each flower. And the gemstone belt made the dress more luxurious.
What a gorgeous and luxurious gown!
Serena walked over and touched it. The yarn was soft and comfortable. Then, she checked the gemstones.
“Are these imitation stones?”‘ Who will use gemstones on clothes?’
“Ms. Serena, you must be joking. How could Mr. Derek use imitation stones?”
“This, this … these are all real?”
“Of course. This is a gown made by the famous designer Dave Pevensey. Mr. Derek took out the precious gemstones he had kept for many years and ordered that the gemstones should be embedded overnight.”
“Holy shit … Isn’t it too luxurious?”
Though Serena was touching those gemstones, she still couldn’t believe her eyes.
“I heard that Clara’s mother-in-law gave some gems to Clara, and Clara embedded them on her wedding gown. It is said that those gems are worth three million.” Henry pursed his lips and smiled, “Just three million. Only the gemstone in the middle costs more than that. Clara must be mad when she sees Ms. Serena wearing this gown.”
Serena finally got what Henry meant, “Mr. Henry, are you saying that all Derek did is to help me infuriate Clara?”
Henry nodded.
Serena was taken aback. ‘So, Derek has made preparation for her, including the gown!’
“Ms. Serena, what are you waiting for? Hurry up and try it. If it doesn’t fit, there may be time to improve.”
“No, no, no,” Serena shook her head hurriedly, “I can’t wear it.”
“Why?” Henry didn’t understand. Wasn’t it the best revenge to seek the limelight from the bride at her wedding? How could one refuse that?
“I have my plan today, so I can’t wear a gown.”
“This…”
“However,” Serena fixed her gaze on the belt of the gown, “I will take this belt, okay?”
Henry smiled awkwardly, “Of course.”
“Alright, take off the belt and send me to the wedding.”
Henry had no choice but to follow suit.
Besides the gown, Derek had prepared a bodyguard, an assistant, and the most luxurious car Rolls-Royce Phantom for her, which shocked her once more.
In order to match all of this, Serena had to go back to her bedroom and put on a more elegant dress, as well as a pair of oversize sunglasses and a sunbonnet.
Sitting in the car, Serena wondered why Derek prepared so much for her.
‘What is his goal?’
Nathan Hotel
Nathan Hotel controlled by the Nathan Group was one of the best luxury hotels in City Z. It was reasonable that Clara and Sammy’s wedding was held in their own hotel.
There were still three hours left before the wedding. The media and fans had surrounded this hotel. However, no one was allowed to enter without an invitation. These people could only watch anxiously from outside.
When a luxurious Rolls-Royce phantom stopped at the door, it attracted attention from all people.
A bodyguard got out of the car first and opened the door for Serena.
Everyone looked at the car door to see who this bigshot was.
Serena got out of the car.
A woman? It was only a woman?
This caused a sensation among the media. They rushed over to check, but only found that the woman was wearing oversized sunglasses and a sunbonnet. It was obvious that this woman was trying to hide her identity, which only increased the curiosity of the media!
The cameras aimed at Serena, and the bodyguards stepped forward to protect her. Then she ran to the door.
The person at the door stopped her, “Miss, may I check your invitation?”
Serena took out the invitation card from her bag and handed it to him.
The assistant beside her explained, “Mr. Derek received an invitation from the president of the Nathan Group. But Mr. Derek is too busy, so he asked Ms. Serena to attend the wedding for him.”
“OK. Please come in.” The gatekeeper moved aside.
Serena ran into the hotel, so did her bodyguards. A waiter took them to the auditorium.
“You guys stay here. Wait for me. I’m going to the bathroom.” Serena waved her hand and slipped away immediately.

S City
Derek stood in front of the window of the hotel room, looking down at this small seaside city. S City was an important port city with three sides surrounded by the sea. The scenery was very beautiful.
Hayden walked over and said, “Mr. Derek, there’s still no way to contact the Benevolence and Justice Society.”
Derek heard this, but made no response. He had been here for three days and had made no progress.
“Is today Clara’s wedding day?”
Hayden was shocked. There had been no progress for the project in the past three days which he had spent in S City. Wasn’t he upset about this? He had never done useless work!
“Yes.”
“How’s it going there?”
“I called Mr. Henry this morning as you had instructed. Mr. Henry said that the invitation card had been given to Ms. Serena, and that the car, bodyguards and assistants were all prepared. There shouldn’t be any problems.”
“It’s hard to tell.”
It would be OK with other people, but when it came to Serena, everything might happen.
“Are you worried about Ms. Serena? She will be safe under the protection of the bodyguards.”
‘Right now, the most important issue is the transportation rights of the port in S City!’
“I will go back to City Z immediately.”
