She did not feel wronged by his reprimand. Instead, she smiled and hugged his arm. “John, are you afraid that I won’t marry you in the future, so you’re cursing me so that you can marry me?”

Without waiting for him to answer, she would look up at him and answer her own question. “That must be it.”

John looked at her with disdain and returned to the room to find a disinfectant. As he applied the medicine to her injury, he would mutter under his breath. “I’m the only one who will marry such a stupid person. So in the future, stay by my side and don’t run around. If you get lost, 1 won’t want you anymore.”

At that time, she had never thought she would marry a man other than John, nor did she think that John would marry someone else.

When Linda saw John examining Serenity’s injuries without regard for his status, she gripped the pearl bag in her hand tightly and a hint of jealousy flashed in her eyes.

Serenity was only the Rivers family’s daughter who was not favored. Why was she allowed to work in Zephyr Group?

Linda was the apple of Jack Sawyer’s eye but why were Gabriel and John unwilling to look at her?

Although Sawyer Group’s status was far from Zephyr Group’s, it was more than enough to compete with River Group, which was about to go bankrupt.

The only thing Serenity had that was better than Linda was that she had an outstanding older sister and brother-in-law.

Other than that, how could Serenity compare to her?

John was still bent over while Serenity was immersed in her own memories and emotions. Neither of them noticed the flames of jealousy in Linda’s eyes.

John stood up after checking her injuries. Because she was in a daze, she did not have time to hide the strange emotions in her eyes. When she saw’ him looking at her, she quickly turned her head away. The corners of her eyes seemed to be cold.

John looked at her calmly. “I’ll send you to the hospital.”

She lowered her eyes to hide the strange look she had. “Linda will send me there after the ceremony.”

Linda, who had been treated as air, immediately smiled and said, “President Grant, the ceremony is about to begin. It’s not appropriate for you to leave now. I’ll send Serenity to the hospital after it’s over.”

John knew what Serenity was feeling awkward about and did not force her. But he still carried her and walked forward.

Caught off guard, Serenity instinctively wrapped her arms around his neck as she stared at him with widened eyes.

He stared at her pretty face which was filled with shock and confusion. He could see his shadow reflected in her clear eyes.

“Your foot injury is a little serious. I’ll send you to the guest room. Stay in the guest room and get your sister to send you to the hospital after the ceremony.”

The blood in her body seemed to boil in an instant. She had been absent-minded for too long. After a moment, she found her voice and said, “Alright.”

Seeing that John did not appreciate her kindness, Linda suddenly felt a sense of resentment.

She had always been regarded as a treasure by other men. This feeling of being ignored the entire time made her feel as if she was a pile of dung. How could she not resent such behavior?

John carried Serenity while walking quickly as Linda followed behind them.

Serenity grabbed John’s clothes nervously.

Although he was her brother-in-law, only people who knew what had happened would know that she was unable to walk because her foot was injured. Those who did not would think that there was something between the two of them.

Although there something had been going on between the two of them in the past, everyone in Andalas knew that he was her brother-in-law now.

The relationship between the two of them was just that.

If someone else made a fuss about it, not only her but even Selena would be a hot gossip topic..
