Chapter 343 She Is Getting Married Today
Soon, Lily returned.
She jogged back, still catching her breath. "It's a woman. She's acting crazy, ramming our gate, saying she needs to see Ms. Serena Rothwell. I asked her name, but she wouldn't say."
At these words, everyone's eyes turned to Serena.
"I'll go see," Adrian said.
"It's just a crazy woman. Why not just send her away? Why go look?" Frank said.
Adrian ignored him.
Seeing him heading out, Serena stood up too.
Regardless, the crazy person was looking for her. She needed to know what was going on.
Frank watched the two leave, then turned back to Sarah. "What's their rush? Never seen a crazy person before?"
Sarah calmly continued eating, explaining, "Tomorrow is Adrian and Serena's wedding. What if this crazy person shows up to cause trouble at the ceremony?"
"Ah!"
Frank understood. "Mr. Locke is eliminating future problems. Looks like he really wants to marry Serena."
...
As Adrian and Serena approached the gate, they indeed saw a long-haired woman banging her head against the gate bars, truly acting like a madwoman.
But Serena still recognized her from her silhouette. "Kathy?"
As she spoke, Serena and Adrian had reached the gate.
But the gate remained closed.
Serena and Adrian stood inside.
Kathy stood outside.
Hearing Serena's voice, Kathy looked up. The moment she saw Serena, joy filled Kathy's eyes.
She reached through the gate bars, trying to grab Serena, shouting, "Serena, Serena, please save Chase! Please save Chase..."
Serena stood at a distance, coldly watching Kathy's frantic state.
Her tone held no warmth. "I can't save him. Leave."
"How can you not save him?" Kathy screamed. "If you just write a letter of understanding, he'll get a lighter sentence! Serena, please let him go! He was someone you loved..."
As she said these last words, she felt a chill instantly shoot toward her.
She couldn't help but shudder. Following the source of this cold air, she saw Adrian's cold, indifferent face.
Kathy was stunned. "Mr. Locke..."
Her teeth chattered uncontrollably in her mouth. She didn't dare meet the cold light in Adrian's eyes.
Of course, Adrian couldn't be bothered to look at her.
His gaze fell on Serena's face.
Serena took his arm and looked at Kathy, her tone indifferent. "Kathy, I don't know how you still have the face to come find me. Chase's current situation is entirely his own doing.
If he weren't locked up in prison today, I'd be the one in jail.
When you plotted to harm me, you didn't leave me any way out at all. If I show him even a bit of mercy, I'm condemning myself to eternal damnation.
So no, I won't forgive him. And I definitely won't write a letter of understanding."
"But he was someone you loved! How can you be so cold-blooded, so heartless?" Kathy screamed in disbelief.
Serena laughed coldly. "I am quite heartless. Not like you—you can still forgive a scumbag who's rotten to the core. What, have all the men in the world died?"
Kathy's lips trembled. She couldn't speak.
She didn't understand how Serena could be so heartless.
Just as Serena didn't understand how, even with Chase this rotten and thrown in prison, Kathy was still trying every way to rescue him.
This love really was eye-opening.
Serena couldn't be bothered to talk to her anymore and returned inside with Adrian.
In the dining room, only Frank remained eating.
"Sarah finished already?"
Serena asked casually.
"Yeah. Ms. Rothwell is too busy. She leaves me alone every day."
His tone was thoroughly aggrieved.
"Living off your wife like this and you're still complaining?" Adrian said.
Shameless.
Frank said cheerfully, "What's wrong with that? My wife has a soft life to offer me. You're just jealous."
Adrian fell silent.
Serena fell silent.
Fine. They conceded defeat.
...
As for Kathy outside the gate, she refused to leave, staying guard at the entrance.
As if Serena wouldn't write the letter of understanding, she wouldn't go.
At midnight, Harvey appeared with people and forcibly carried Kathy to a car.
In the pitch-black night, they dumped her at a prison entrance.
No one knew what Harvey had said to Kathy in the car, but when she was thrown out, she seemed completely unhinged, her mind unclear.
Being at the prison entrance in the suburbs with no people around, no lights, only gusts of cold wind attacking her—
She had no idea how she survived that night.
When the sun rose and the world brightened, she was in a complete daze.
In the morning, she entered the prison to see Chase.
Chase was disheveled beyond recognition, no trace of his former glory.
The moment he saw Kathy, he grabbed the phone through the glass and asked, "Did you see Serena? What did she say? She'll write the letter of understanding. She'll let me out, right?"
Kathy didn't speak.
Seeing this, Chase nearly went mad, roaring, "Say something! Kathy, say something! What happened? She'll save me, won't she?"
This prison was no place for humans. He couldn't stand even one more day.
The guard, seeing his agitated state, immediately moved to take him away.
Kathy finally spoke into the phone. "She's getting married today."
"Who? Who? Who's getting married?"
Chase already had a premonition, but he didn't dare think it was that name.
Serena wouldn't get married.
Who would she marry?
She must be outside waiting for him to get out.
Kathy looked at his disbelieving, crazed expression and laughed coldly. "Serena. She's getting married today."
