However, Derek was suddenly silent.
Clara’s face was already ashen. These two things were enough to ruin her reputation in the circle!
She had taken the abortion drug but wanted to frame Serina and put on a bitter play.
She had also hired a killer to kill Serina.
What kind of grudge was this? She wanted to put her sister to death.
Clara suddenly grabbed Sammy’s arm. “Sammy, you have to believe me. You have to believe me. It’s not like that. Someone framed me.”
Sammy chuckled and slowly raised his hand to push Clara’s hand away.
“Clara, haven’t you done it?”
Clara widened her eyes and looked at Sammy’s cold face in disbelief, “Sammy, don’t you believe me?”
As they were talking, two policemen came in. They walked directly to Clara and saluted her, “Ms. Clara, you are suspected of buying and killing people. Please come with us.”
“No! I didn’t! That was slander!” Clara stood up and shouted at the police.
“Whether it is slander or not, just wait for us to investigate it thoroughly. Please come with us,” the policeman said politely.
“I don’t want to go! I don’t want to go! I didn’t buy a killer! I won’t go with you!”
Clara lost her mind, covering her ears and shouting.
“Sammy, hurry up and tell them that I didn’t! You have to help me!”
Sammy stood up and turned to look at Clara, “Clara, go with them. If it weren’t for you, I would have returned your innocence.”
“Sammy, you…” Clara could not believe that Sammy was not on her side at this time.
The policeman took out handcuffs.
“No! It was not me!” Clara wanted to escape, but she was sitting in the middle. There were people on both sides, and there was no way to escape.
When she looked around and found that everyone was staring at her, she was completely silent.
She put her hands in front of her and tried to look up, “I believe the court will prove my innocence.”
The cold handcuffs were put on her delicate wrist.
Clara was taken away by the police, and Sammy also left the auditorium.
The auditorium became silent.
It seemed that this matter had come to an end.
A media reporter raised his hand, and Derek very gentlemanly stretched out his hand, indicating that he could speak.
“May I ask Mr. Derek, why are you helping Ms. Serina to clear her name?”
“This is the third thing I was about to say, Serina. She is my girlfriend.”
Everyone was shocked!
It was a complete shock!
They say that Derek was single. Why did he suddenly have a girlfriend? And it was an unknown web novelist.
Derek originally intended to directly say that she was his “wife.” Considering that Serina had signed the divorce agreement, although it had not taken effect yet, it was not appropriate to directly say that she was his wife. It was more appropriate to say that she was his “girlfriend.”
Serina was even more shocked. She blinked her big eyes and could not believe Derek was standing on the stage.
She was stunned!
What the hell was going on? Didn’t he say that he wouldn’t marry her? Why did he say that I was his girlfriend in such a public place so soon?
“Everyone, be quiet!”
With Derek’s order, the entire audience slowly returned to silence.
“I’m sorry. Because of personal reasons, I didn’t disclose my situation in time. Ms. Serina and I were already together months ago. Here, I have to apologize to the public because this matter was not made public, causing many misunderstandings to happen. In addition…”
Derek turned to look at Serina. At this moment, their eyes met.
“I also want to apologize to my girlfriend because I can’t reveal your identity and make you suffer a lot of grievances. However, I can guarantee that this kind of thing will never happen again.”
The audience burst into applause.
It was said that Derek of the Saint Group was cold and indifferent, and no one expected that there would be such an affectionate moment.
What happened next made Serina feel like she was dreaming.
She didn’t even know how she entered the celebration party.
Derek was holding her hand the entire time. People were coming over to congratulate her, and people came over to take photos.
Because Derek was the behind-the-scenes investor of this drama, Serina even accompanied Derek as the Lady Boss to propose toasts to actors, directors, and staff.
This night was destined to be muddled and felt like it was a dream.
Serina sat in the chair, her mind still blank.
Jessica came over with a glass of red wine in her hand and sat next to Serina.
“Dear Lady Boss, would you like to have a drink?”
When Serina saw that it was Jessica, she smiled and said, “don’t call me lady boss. It seems I am old.”
“But you are our lady boss.” Jessica teased, “you are not my friend. How can you hide your relationship with Mr. Derek so well?”
Serina smiled awkwardly. Could she say that they were preparing for a divorce?
“I didn’t mean it. After all, Derek has a special identity.”
“Explanation is a cover-up. You have to treat me to dinner as compensation.”
“Alright, I’ll treat you. Please order whatever you want.”
“Surely a lady boss. You’re so generous!”
“Serina!” Derek finally finished his dinner and walked to Serina.
“Ah?”
“Mr. Derek,” Jessica immediately stood up and spoke.
Derek nodded and looked at Serina. “It’s time to go home,” he said.
“Oh,” Serina stood up and waved at Jessica. “Jessica, I’ll go first.”
Jessica nodded, “bye.”
Derek held Serina’s shoulder and left.
Jessica sighed. These two people are quite interesting. However, Ernest and Serina…
She looked around for Ernest and found that Ernest had already left without her knowing when.
Serina subconsciously hugged her shoulders. Derek immediately took off his coat and put it on Serina.
Serina looked up at Derek. Derek smiled brightly at her, then put his arm around her shoulder and got into the car together.
The car drove towards the Crystal Palace.
Along the way, they seemed to have nothing to say.
“Where are we going?” Serina suddenly looked out the window.
“Go home,” Derek replied casually.
“Go home?” Serina turned to look at Derek.
“Go back to our home. What? You don’t know it?” Derek reached out his hand and hooked Serina’s nose.
Serina curled her lips. “Didn’t you say … that you wouldn’t marry me?”
“I have said that you are my woman. Are you going to make me lose my face in public?” Derek reached out his arm and held Serina in his arms.
