"This is the place." "Thank you!" Serena watched the staff member leave before turning her attention to the heavy door in front of her.

"Hahaha, I told you Serena couldn't stay away from Mr. Vance." "This tshe held out quite a while, but in the end, she's back! Miss Sullivan is the real comedian." "Miss Sullivan loves Mr. Vance too much to let go..."
The women's voices were grating, prompting Aaron to furrow his brow. But upon hearing the last comment, his expression softened slightly, and when he looked at Serena, a hint of amusement danced in his dark eyes. "What do you want to talk about?" "I need to speak with you alone," Serena said, meeting Aaron's gaze head-on. Ignoring the mocking stares around her.
Aaron tilted his head slightly, a smile playing on his lips. "Serena, this isn't a hotel where you can cand go En.
as you please..." "I'm afraid you're mistaken, Mr. Vance. I'm not here to reconcile. This is about Miss Lynwood." Silence.
