Chapter 926

Mrs. Lawson was thoroughly pleased with her future daughter-in-law. Although Serena’s health was poor due to a congenital heart condition since childhood, making it likely she couldn’t have children, Serena’s family background was excellent.

For the Lawson family to advance further, they needed the Mitchell family’s help.

Furthermore, before the engagement, Serena had approached her privately, tearfully expressing her guilt. She knew her body wouldn’t allow her to bear children and that she was unworthy of Timothy, but she was grateful to his parents for allowing the engagement.

As compensation, she said that after they married, Timothy could find another woman to have a child. As long as the child was brought back for her to raise, and the birth mother was out of the picture, she would have no objections.

How could Mrs. Lawson not adore such an understanding future daughter-in-law?

Hearing the maid’s report now, Mrs. Lawson immediately chided, “That boy, Timothy. Serena is his fiancée, and she came all this way just because she was worried about him. How can he refuse to see her? Tell him to come down at once p>

Serena meekly let Mrs. Lawson hold her hand, her worried gaze drifting toward the second floor.

“I heard you brought a doctor to treat Timothy p>

At the mention of this, Mrs. Lawson was filled with rage. “Of course we did! We even invited the renowned Dr. Austin, a titan in the medical world. But someone had to

interfere, so it all fell through today p>

Serena was surprised. “What happened p>

At this point, Mrs. Lawson became evasive. It wasn’t exactly something to be proud of, her son being infatuated with another woman when he already had a fiancée. She mumbled, “Oh, it was nothing. Just some little tramp trying to seduce Timothy. When he wouldn’t give her the time of day, she deliberately sabotaged things p>

“But don’t you worry. Dr. Austin promised he would still treat Timothy later. The problem, as you know, is Timothy himself. He refuses we’re at our wit’s end p>

“But it’s good that you’re here. You

can try to talk some sense into him. You’re his fiancée; he’s bound to

treat you differently than others He might actually listen to your content

Serena nodded obediently and followed a maid upstairs.

Timothy was on the phone. Hearing someone approach, he turned his head Seeing it was Serena his expression remained flat. He said a few words into the phone and set it down.

“Why did you come up?” he asked wearily.

He wasn’t cold or rude to Serena, but it wasn’t as Mrs. Lawson claimed either-that

he treated his fiancée with any special regard.

Serena wasn’t a fool. She knew Timothy didn’t care about her at all.

Because she wasn’t in his heart, it didn’t matter to him whether she was a stranger or his fiancée.

“I was worried, so I came to see you,

Jeep company,” Serena said,

gazing adoringly at the man before

her with a shy innocent smile p>

“There’s no need,” Timothy said. “I don’t need company. You can go back downstairs p>

Serena looked at him and suddenly said, “Your mother told me a woman was trying to seduce you p>

She lowered her eyes, her expression calm. “But I know plenty of women try to seduce you. Why would this one be special enough to mention p>

“She must have lied to me. The truth is, you’ve fallen for someone else, haven’t you p>
