Obsessive CEO’s Sinful Wife by Lil’ Bamboo
Chapter 264
âSerenity just doesnât want Aria to have good things, especially when she canât have them herself!â Catherine was indignant.â If sheâs ruining things for Aria and Lucas, Iâll tear her apart!!
Grayson said instead, âCould there be a misunderstanding?â
After all, Serenity was also his daughter. To be frank, Grayson did not really care which of his daughters could be with Lucas as long as he got to be Lucas âs father-in-law.
âMisunderstanding? How can that be? Serenity is just trying to climb the ladder! Catherine said. âHow else could she get involved with Lucas after meeting Jackson? She doesnât even consider this. Sheâs an ex-convict. Will they even take her seriously? Itâs just for fun.â
Catherine spared no effort to slander her stepdaughter, fearing that she would rob her daughter Ariaâs great marriage.
âBut Aria is different. Aria has a clean record! Sheâs Luca sâs official girlfriend. Aria will become the best actress and eventually marry into the Gomez family. Itâs just a matter of time!â
Catherine spoke as if Aria would become the best actress and Mrs. Gomez the very next day.
Hearing that, Grayson nodded, âokay, enough. Iâll have Serenity come home and make it clear to her. She should keep her distance from Lucas and not ruin Ariaâs chances.â
Aria and Catherine exchanged a glance and beamed.
âThanks, Dad,â Aria said, but worry clouded her face again as she continued apprehensively, âBut what if she doesnât listen?â
âIâm her father! She has to listen to me as long as her last name is Lewis!â Grayson said with a tough look.
Aria lowered her head slightly, a smile crossing her lips.
That night, Serenity got a call from her father, Grayson.
âOh, Serenity. You havenât been back for a while. Why donât you come back? We need to discuss your motherâs grave relocation,â Grayson said.
âGrave relocation?â Serenity was shocked.
âYes. We buried your mother in the village cemetery, but the village will be redeveloped. The land is being expropriated for development, so many graves need to be relocated. You didnât know because you were in jail. The village has already received the official notice,â Grayson explained.
Serenity pursed her lips slightly.
When her mother had died, they had not bought a plot in the cemetery to bury her. Instead, her father, Grayson, had gotten his friendâs help. Graysonâs friend came from a small village on the outskirts of Solaria. There was a public cemetery there, and burial was free, so Serenityâs mother had been buried there.
After her motherâs death, her father had never paid respects to her for years. It was not until Serenity had studied hard and gone to a good high school and university that following that, her father and stepmother had visited Serenityâs motherâs grave to pay their respects.
When Serenity had been imprisoned, her father had stopped visiting her motherâs grave,
Serenity had visited her motherâs grave after leer release from prison. The woods had grown so much and almost covered the words on the tombstone, and cr acks had appeared between the tombstone and the grave. She had wanted to repair the cr acks on her next visit, but she did not expect to love to move the grave,
âokay. Iâll be back,â Serenity answered. She would never go back unless it was for her mother.
âHow about tomorrow night? You can come over. What do you want to eat? Iâll send Cath to get it,â Grayson spoke in a fatherly tone which shocked Serenity for a second.

Serenity had only heard such a tone in the prime of life, which was when she had a successful career and good love life. Her father would talk to her warmly then, but everything had changed after she had been imprisoned.
Serenity then realized the truth. Her father had only treated her as an unwanted child from a previous marriage. He would treat her like his daughter while useful but abandon her as soon as she held no valur in his eyes. âNo need. Iâll come after dinner.â Serenity ended the call immediately and put the phone away.
