“Why am I here? This is my home!” Ernest shouted as he covered half of his face.
Serina hurriedly put down the plunger.
“Why didn’t you say? How would I know it was you!”
“How am I supposed to contact you when I can’t get through to your phone?” Ernest gasped in shock.
Only then did Serina remember that her phone was broken in that incident. She had changed her number to a new one. Yesterday, she posted her new number in her WeChat Moments.
Ernest had been busy filming, so he probably did not see it.
“Serina! My handsome face is ruined by you!”
“Don’t worry! I’ll get you the medicine!” Serina hurriedly went to the drawer and found the first aid kit.
There was the drug for injuries. Serina hurriedly applied medicine on Ernest’s forehead, neck, and other places that she hit.
Ernest had never enjoyed such treatment before. He was very happy.
“And here, here!”
“Yes, yes!”
Serina didn’t complain at all.
Finally, it was done. Serina saw Ernest’s face and burst into laughter.
The funny marks did not disappear! Ernest was a standard little face. The plunger was just about the same size as his face!
“What are you laughing at? Isn’t it all thanks to you?” Ernest rolled his eyes at her.
“Ernie, you look pretty good like this!”
“Bullshit!”
“It’s true! Even with such a big red circle, you’re still handsome. It can be seen that you are really … amazingly beautiful!”
Hearing this, Ernest felt happy. It was rare that Serina praised him.
“Hey, Serina, what did you hit me with just now? I don’t remember that our family has weapons.”
“No, nothing, nothing.”
Serina dawdled out of bed and prepared to hide the plunger before Ernest found it.
In the end, Ernest found out!
“Serina! You actually took the plunger and hit my face!”
Ernest felt nauseous. He immediately ran to the bathroom.
Serina heard the sound of vomiting.
“What a sin! What a sin! I said you’d better not know, but you still insist. You can’t blame me!”
Serina shrugged.
This time, Ernest took the longest bath in his life.
Moreover, when he heard about the plunger, he would feel he was stink.
…
Because it was a closed filming, Ernest could not even bring his phone. He only saw some reports on the news after filming.
Serina told Ernest everything happened recently, but she hid the fact that she fell in love with Derek.
To be abandoned right after falling in love was quite embarrassing.
Ernest finally understood what was going on.
“So, the reason why my uncle didn’t divorce was that he wanted the cargo rights to the port?”
This didn’t make sense. He clearly felt that Derek had fallen in love with Serina! He knew his uncle. He changed so much. Wasn’t he in love with Serina?
“That’s right. No businessman trades without fraud! You profiteers!”
Serina’s fingers almost poked at Ernest’s nose.
“I’m not a businessman. I’m an actor!”
Serina glanced at him. What he said was right. Ernest did not provoke her.
“Hey, what do you plan to do now?”
“What can I do? I’m like a rat crossing the street right now, and everyone is shouting at me. The negative news is making me very anxious.”
Serina sighed and lay on the floor.
“Hey, do you want me to help you?” Ernest patted Serina’s thigh.
“How?”
“I’m a superstar. Clara is just a z-list star. Do you think I can’t compare to her?”
“Don’t make trouble for me! Clara has said that I have hooked up with your uncle. If you stand out again, what will others say about me? I can’t wash myself clean!”
Ernest scratched his head. That was right.
Serina sat up, “However, you can do me a favor now!”
“What is it? Tell me! I am willing to risk my life for your sake!” Ernest patted himself on the chest.
“Take me to the Crystal Palace. I want to talk about divorce with your uncle!”
“What?” Ernest immediately wore a bitter face.
“What? Is your uncle even more terrifying than a mountain of blades and a sea of flames?”
Ernest had no choice but to drive Serina to the Crystal Palace.
It was already evening. Ernest called Henry in advance to confirm that Derek did not have a dinner party today and had returned.
At the door, Ernest stopped the car, “Serina, you can go in by yourself.”
Serina sat in the front passenger seat, “You’re playing with me! Ernest, you’re a good buddy!”
Serina unfastened her seat belt and got out of the car.
Ernest was really timid, but looking at Serina’s eyes just now, he gritted his teeth and then got out of the car.
“Serina, wait for me! Don’t be angry!”
“I don’t have a friend as timid as you!”
Serina shouted as she strode forward.
“Don’t, don’t! I was wrong, okay? I am here now.” Ernest quickly ran two steps and caught up with Serina.
People from the Crystal Palace recognized Serina. They respectfully called out, “Mr. Derek, Ms. Serina.”
However, most of them felt strange. Why was Serina with Ernest?
They arrived in the living room while arguing. Henry was also shocked when he saw them together.
Derek was resting on the sofa with his eyes closed. He had been tired for an entire day and finally had time to rest.
“Derek!” Serina shouted the moment she entered the door.
Derek opened his eyes and looked at the door. Serina was angry, and Ernest was a little timid behind her.
Why was she back? Wasn’t she in S City?
Serina strode to the sofa and sat down, “Let’s talk about divorce.”
“Divorce?”
What was wrong with this woman? Why did she mention divorce again?
Derek subconsciously looked at Ernest.
Ernest hurriedly shifted his gaze elsewhere.
“Ernest, when did you come back?” Derek immediately changed the topic.
“It’s noon today.”
“Have you seen your grandmother?”
“Not yet…” Ernest immediately understood what Derek meant. He looked at Serina, his eyes seeming to say, “This is what I can help.”
