Serina suddenly sat up from the bed, which made Ernest hurry to the bedside.
“Serina! Calm down!”
Ernest immediately pressed Serina on the bed, “The doctor said you can’t move!”
Only then did Serina come back to her senses. She immediately placed her palm on her abdomen, “My babies, Ernie, my babies!”
“The child is fine for now. Lie down and don’t move.”
Ernest pressed Serina’s shoulders tightly.
Serina took two deep breaths, raised one hand and grabbed Ernest’s arm, “What do you mean by saying this?”
“I want to say… In other words, the babies are temporarily saved, but you have to rest in bed to see your further condition.” Ernest explains patiently.
“It means that babies will still be in trouble!”
“That might not be the case! Serina, calm down. You are going to be a mother. Why are you still so excited?”
Serina looked at Ernest, somewhat at a loss.
“Lie down. Babies will definitely be fine. Be good!” Ernest slowly released his hands.
“As long as I lie down, the babies will be fine?”
“Yes! Don’t move.”
“Alright.” Serina lay quietly on the bed and looked at the ceiling.
Ernest finally breathed a sigh of relief, “Serina, why did you go to such a remote place?”
“I went to look for Derek.”
“My uncle? Why is he there?” Ernest is surprised.
At this time, Rafael also came in but Serina did not notice her. She just looked at Ernest and spoke to him.
“I also accidentally bumped into him. I still remember that when we were on Water Cloud Island, we were also at the seaside. He looked at the moon quietly. I asked him what he was looking at.”
Serina smiled and said, “He said he was looking at people. He also told me that his sister once said that people would go to the moon after death. As long as you think of someone, you can look at the moon.”
Ernest lowered his head.
When Rafael heard this, she also felt extremely guilty. She had never thought that Derek would always remember the joke she said.
All these years, he had been living a bad life. And he had been thinking about her all the time, just not showing on the face.
“So, I thought that he would go there by the seaside in this city.”
“And you didn’t find him?”
“Who said I didn’t find him? I found him.” Serina’s eyes drooped and she felt a little sad. It was better to fail to find him.
“Found him?” Ernest looked at Serina in surprise, “Then why are you there alone?”
“Because he left…” Serina’s voice was a little ambiguous.
“He left?”
“He said he was going to divorce me and no longer had the courage to face everyone, so he left.”
Serina’s tears flowed from the corners of her eyes.
She even did not tell him that he was going to be a father, and the babies were twins. He was so determined to divorce and said such cruel words.
Serina was thinking that if she told him earlier that he was going to be a father, would the ending be different?
“Derek is a sensitive person. If something like this happens, he might not be able to accept it for a while, and he might not really want to divorce you.” Rafael finally spoke.
Only then did Serina realize that Rafael had been in the room.
Her gaze shifted to Rafael. “Did you know him so well? But why are you forcing him to do what he dislikes?”
“I just don’t want to be forced by others.” Rafael lowered her head.
“You don’t want to be forced by others, so you want to force others? What does he mean to you?”
Serina smiled bitterly, “In fact, you can have a better solution. If you get the real will, you can directly find Derek. If Mr. Dalton really gives the shares to Ernest, he will not say anything.”
Rafael lowered her head. She now realized that her actions were too extreme.
“And you have to choose this way to make him lose face in front of everyone. You know that the shareholders will support Ernest, but you still choose this way. You have already hurt his heart!”
Rafael was lost for words.
“Now, every shareholder is eyeing him covetously. In order to step on him, they would resort to any means possible. They even made the news that he was not a natural son and even stepped on him directly.”
Rafael’s eyes were full of tears.
“It’s understandable that you protect your son, but you hurt your brother who loves you the most. Whether you are brother and sister or not, he regarded you as his real sister. After knowing that you died, he took care of Ernest wholeheartedly. He did not let you down!”
“But I couldn’t think so much at that time. Lauren really went too far.”
“Lauren has gone too far. You can blame her. But why did you blame Derek for all this?”
Serina snorted softly, “Are you a family? Can all matters be resolved privately?”
“Yes… I wasn’t thorough enough and hurt Derek.”
“He now feels that everyone has abandoned him. His mother did everything for the sake of interests. He is also in pain. But all of you never considered him.”
“Okay, when Derek comes back, I will explain it to him.”
“I hope he can come back,” Serina said with a smile.
She didn’t know why, but she had a very bad feeling that she was about to completely lose Derek.
And today was a special day.
It was Derek and Zoe’s engagement banquet.
Lauren hadn’t slept for day and night. Because she couldn’t find Derek, she was very nervous.
The butler hurried forward. Lauren immediately went forward to greet him, but the butler still shook his head.
“Still can’t find him? You have to look carefully!”
“Mrs. Maynard, we are already very careful. We are about to dig into the ground, but we still can’t find Mr. Derek!” The butler looked troubled.
“Where did Derek go” Lauren was really anxious to death.
“Mrs. Maynard, do you think Mr. Derek will appear at tonight’s engagement banquet?” The butler asked.
“I don’t know. If I can’t find him now, how am I supposed to know?”
Lauren found that it was a mistake to make such an agreement with Zoe behind Derek’s back!
“Mr. Derek has always been filial. Even if he doesn’t agree to this engagement, he will definitely not embarrass Mrs. Maynard. At the very least, he will appear at the engagement banquet.”
“What you said makes sense. Although Derek doesn’t like to talk, he is indeed filial. How can he leave me alone to face the Webber Group?”
Lauren said to herself.
“Continue to look for him, maybe you can find him. If you really can’t find him, we can only wait for him to appear at night.”
“Yes.”
“Even if he breaks the engagement on the spot, I will accept it.”
