《My Billionaire Enemy Is My Lover 》全部章節：第 41 章 - 第 50 章

I stayed frozen in the restroom for several minutes while Serenity kept asking if I knew those girls or why they hurt me.I just stared at her, unable to answer. What was I supposed to say? That they pulled my hair just because they found out I’m a Salazar? That would only make her think it’s connected to what happened in the past. And I’m not even sure if it really is.I want to be sure first before I tell them… or maybe I won’t tell them at all. It will only make my family more afraid. We’re just starting to be okay. I don’t want to be the reason everything falls apart again.Serenity and I went home after what happened. We didn’t go back to our table anymore. I just texted Sara that we had to leave because of an emergency.“Serenity, I don’t know, okay? I don’t know them, and I don’t know why they hurt me!” I stopped and shut my eyes tightly. “I didn’t do anything to them. They just did it out of nowhere.”Serenity finally stopped asking and leaned back against the taxi seat. We we

I froze when Alaric said that my grandfather was the reason his family and mine had been torn apart. I was still sitting on his lap, but I couldn't stop my thoughts from spiraling.Was that why Analise hated me so much after finding out I was a Salazar? When Daphne and Chesca pulled my hair, they looked as if they believed they were justified. Was it because my grandfather was the one at fault? Was it really that serious?I looked at Alaric when he cupped my chin and tilted my face up until our eyes met.“What is it?” he asked softly.A thought suddenly crossed my mind. I didn't want to believe it because I couldn't accept it. But what if my family really was to blame? Does that mean everything Alaric has done to me is part of his revenge? He never denied it. He only said I was difficult to hurt. Does that mean he still wants revenge, just not in the same way as before? Maybe he wants me to fall for him first, only to leave me in the end.I looked away. “What did my grandfather do?” I

I had no idea what was going on with Serenity. After Scarlet confronted her about the mansion, she suddenly walked out and locked herself in her room. I didn't dwell on it because I had my own problems to think about. I couldn't stop thinking about everything I'd learned, and it kept me awake most of the night.Alaric told me to come to work the next day, so that's exactly what I did.I arrived at the office early. Hardly anyone else was there yet.I was sipping my coffee when Sara and Lina walked in together. The moment they saw me at my desk, they exchanged wide grins.“Just a little more, Seraphina, and I'm going to start thinking Sir Ferrer likes you,” Lina teased as she sat down.I almost choked on my coffee.My eyes widened as I turned to her.The two of them burst into laughter.“Girl, the atmosphere around here is terrible whenever you're absent. It feels like we're going into battle because everyone's so tense,” Sara said.“What do you mean?” I asked nervously.“It feels like

After my conversation with Alaric's relatives, I returned to our department in a daze. Sara and Lina kept asking who my visitors were, but I simply told them they were acquaintances. They stopped asking when they saw I wasn't in the mood to talk.The next day, I was busy preparing for the event and spent the entire day away from the office. The following weeks were just as hectic, and I gradually forgot about everything Daphne and the others had said. As the event drew closer, it became my only focus. I was so busy that I often skipped meals without realizing it. Alaric couldn't do much even though he wanted to see me because he was also busy at their headquarters. He rarely came to his office in our building anymore.Time flew by, and before I knew it, the event was the next day.I was at the Imperial Hotel, directing the staff and making sure everyone knew what they had to do.“Have all the invitations been distributed?” I asked one of the marketing staff. They were in charge of sen

I thanked Magnus when we arrived at the house. I invited him to come inside, but he said he had an emergency to attend to. I felt bad because he had dropped me off first before going where he needed to be."I'm sorry. I didn't know you had somewhere to be. If I'd known, I wouldn't have asked you to drive me home," I said, embarrassed and still feeling a little weak.Magnus chuckled. "Seraphina, even if I have something urgent to do, I'll still put you first if I know you're not feeling well."I licked my lips and looked up at him. He had been staring at me the whole time."But we're not the same anymore... we already parted ways, Magnus."He nodded. I caught a flicker of regret in his eyes.“Doesn’t matter. I’ll still prioritize you over a thing.”I smiled at him sincerely. Even though we had gone our separate ways, he was still the Magnus I knew.Once his car disappeared from sight, I finally went inside. It was already around nine in the evening. As soon as I entered, I saw Scarlet
