“Diana is my sister.” Xeno was also surprised as he stepped aside to make way for Serenity and Sam to enter the house.
Diana was sitting on the sofa watching cartoons with her daughter. When she saw them, Diana beamed with joy. “Quick, sit down. Quinn, say hi to Ms. Serenity and Mr. Sam.”
Quinn greeted the two newcomers with her adorable face and marble-like eyes. “Hello, Mr. Sam and Ms. Serenity.”
Serenity placed the gifts in her hands on the coffee table and patted Quinn’s head. “Good girl.”
“Quinn, wanna doodle with me?” asked Xeno to his niece.
“No, I want to watch TV,” said Quinn, pouting.
“Your mom wants to talk to our guests. Good kids shouldn’t disturb them,” said Xeno, trying to persuade his niece.
Quinn pursed her lips as she was overcome with a dilemma – she wanted to watch TV but she didn’t want to be a bad child. In the end, she gave in and let her uncle carry her away.
Xeno brought Quinn to the room, leaving the three in the living room. Serenity apologetically said, “Ms. Lewis, I heard about what happened. I’m sorry.”
“Well, it just means that I have more time to rest and spend with my daughter.” Diana smiled.
Serenity wished Diana and Sam scolded her as it would make her feel better. The more they acted like they were fine, the more upset she felt. “I heard that you want to set up your own magazine agency?”
Diana nodded. “Actually, I’ve had this idea for a long time. I just couldn’t make up my mind. So, I have to thank President Jones for this.”
Serenity didn’t know what to say as she pursed her lips. “If you need any help, just let me know.”
Sam nudged Serenity’s arm lightly and grinned. “When the magazine is established, you can come work with us. We’ll make the best work buddies! How about it?”
It wasn’t such a bad idea to Serenity. However, it was unrealistic at the moment. “That will have to wait until I give birth.”
Sam glanced at her belly. “Oh, right, right. Giving birth is a big deal. We’ll talk about the rest later.”
“I didn’t expect you to marry President Jones.” Diana was still a little surprised.
“It happened not long ago. So not many people know about it yet,” said she gently.
“He’s very worried about you,” Diana commented on her marriage like an old friend would. “Especially for a man with status like him. If he can do anything for you, it means that you’ve married a good husband.”
“Thank you,” said Serenity gently.
It was already nine o’clock by the time they left Diana’s place with Xeno. Since the two men lived on the same road, Xeno offered to drive Sam back.
“Get in the car first,” said Xeno to Sam. “I’m going to buy a pack of cigarettes.”
Sam got into the car and waited but Xeno did not walk towards the convenience store. Instead, he walked over and knocked on Serenity’s car window.
Serenity rolled down the car window and looked at him in surprise. “Mr. Lewis, what’s the matter?”
Xeno had always looked serious, perhaps because he was a lawyer. Calmly, he said, “Young Madam, I know you used to work with my sister, but you should try to avoid contact with her in the future.”
It did not sound like a warning, but the meaning of his words was clear – he did not want her to have anything to do with Diana.
Serenity said, “It’s my fault. I’m sorry.”
Xeno knew he could not blame her for what happened. After all, Serenity had almost lost her life. “Let’s not talk about the past, but the two of you should not interact with each other anymore. I hope you understand what I mean..”
