Chapter 90: A sudden change
Chapter 90: A sudden change
Serena came back to herself and saw Alice nervously explaining herself. She gave Alice a comforting
smile.
"I don't blame you for what you said. I'm just thinking about something else."
"What happened?" Alice looked at her worriedly, reached out her hand to hold it, "Are you worried
about not finding it? Serena, don't worry, I will find that man for you. I promise "
Seeing her make that promise, Serena could not help but laugh, "Alice, don't be so stupid. Of course
it's my business, but you worked hard for me."
"Because we are good friends. That's just why... "Alice suddenly thought of something, stopped and
asked softly, "Serena, we will always be good friends, right?"
Serena nodded, "Of course."
"Then...If one day I did something unpleasant for you, would you...forgive me?"
What had she done to her? Serena did not react for a while, "Something unpleasant for me?"
"Yes, sometimes...Do you know me? Sometimes I do things rashly. Maybe I accidentally make
mistakes. When you come...but you have to forgive me! "
Serena:"...When have you been reckless? Over the years I have never blamed you. Besides, you have
helped me a lot. I should be grateful to you. "
"Oh, how about this, and we'll talk about it later. Do you want to have a bite of cake?"
Serena: "I don't want any!"
The two of them spent the afternoon at the café and eventually left together after eating. Of course,
Alice offered to drive Serena home. When they reached the door of Ferrari's house, she blinked again,
"Serena, shall I walk you up?"
Hearing this, Serena thought about it for a while and shook her head, "It's getting late, and it's
dangerous to go back in the evening. I have to go now "
Alice was a little disappointed and tightened her lips.
"Alright, then I'll see you tomorrow."
After Alice left, Serena walked back to the Ferrari house with light steps, and when she was about to go
up the stairs, the servant stepped forward and stopped her.
"Miss Gallo, Mr. Alessandro Ferrari wants to see you."
Hearing Alessandro Ferrari's name, Serena's petite body shivered unconsciously, "I know. I'll go right
away."
When she arrived at the studio, she thought that Alessandro would yell at her again or that he had
something for her to do. When she entered she saw Alessandro smiling at her. On weekdays, his
serious and fierce face was a little kinder and less scary than usual.
"Mr....Sir?"
"Aurora Gallo, you have arrived." The old man stood up and walked over to the table to sit down, then
pointed to Serena, "Come and sit down."
This sudden change made Serena stunned, but she obediently approached anyway and sat down
across from him, "Mr. Alessandro? You were looking for me....what can I do for you?"
"Aurora you are married to Cristian, so why call me 'Sir'?"
Hearing this, Serena paused. Had she been insensitive earlier when she called him "Sir"?
"You should call me grandfather instead."
Serena was surprised. Her eyes unconsciously widened. What was going on? Why had Alessandro's
attitude toward her changed so much?
"Mr. Alessandro, I..."
"Not long after your arrival in our house, if there is something wrong, you can talk to me about it, or if
you need, I can help you." Alessandro suddenly pulled out a credit card and put it in front of Serena, "I
know the situation of the Gallo family. You, too, have been through a lot. This is just grandfather's
allowance."
No! This was wrong!
Serena quickly stood up and straightened her back, "Grandpa, I can't accept this money. I am now paid
by Cristian Ferrari as an assistant."
"Grandpa knows, but isn't that a lot of money? You couldn't let people outside look down on you. " Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
Serena clutched the corner of her clothes tightly. Her face was pale.
"Grandpa, what's going on...Will you tell me?"
Alessandro stood up, stroked his beard on his chin and looked at her with a smile.
"You're a smart girl."
Serena felt a pang in her heart.
Of course! Those who were kind without special reasons hide evil intentions.
"That's right. Your friend from last time is the daughter of the Giordano family. What is her name?"
Serena bit her lower lip and said nothing.
"What a good girl, Aurora Gallo. Do you know her?"
Aurora Gallo, she was Aurora Gallo...Serena lowered her gaze and said nervously, "Yes."
"How did you meet?"
Serena shook hands and almost stepped back, but before she moved, Alessandro said his words.
"The Ferrari family has two sons, Cristian and Leonardo. Cristian is already married with you. I won't
have to work hard for him anymore, but Leonardo is no longer young. I haven't found a girl who is good
for him. I think the Giordano family. That's a good girl..."
Hearing this, Serena finally understood. It turned out that Alessandro wanted to pair Leonardo with
Alice.
But...Did Alice like Leonardo? Or would Leonardo like Alice? Serena subconsciously felt that she would
not. She and Alice had known each other for so long, and Alice had never liked Leonardo.
When they were in school, Alice liked the bullying kids, the diligent students. No matter how good-
looking they were, she did not even give them a second glance. She was always following the school
bullies.
Although in the end she did not continue on this path.
But Serena knew that Leonardo and Serena's standards as spouses were too far apart.
"Grandpa, maybe...it's not good."
"What?" The expression on Alessandro's face suddenly became stern. Serena took a small,
frightenedly stepped back and explained in a low voice, "Alice...has a boyfriend!"
She could say no more.
"She has a boyfriend?" Alessandro froze for a while at first, and then reacted after a while, "Who
cares? A boyfriend is not a husband. As long as she is not married, she will have a chance. Ask her.
It's like you're helping Grandpa. "
Serena: "..." Should she not have said anything? She bit her lower lip, "I know. I'll ask her."
"Take this money."
Serena did not dare to ask, but Alessandro's eyes were electrified and clouded, as if he did not believe
she would help him until she accepted it. Desperate, Serena had to temporarily accept the credit card
before leaving the studio.
She went upstairs anxiously.
There was also another reason why she did not want Alice to be with Leonardo.
The situation at the Ferrari house was too complicated.
Leonardo, Cristian, and Alessandro did not see eye to eye, and every day they fought openly and
secretly if...getting her married to Leonardo was like pushing her into a fire pit.
She and Alice were good friends, and she was already in a fire pit, so she didn't want to drag other
people into that situation!
