NovelOnlineChapter 338 Kenneth and Louisa exchanged a glance, both looking a bit puzzled. Was all this being manipulated behind the scenes? And if so, who was the puppeteer? Who was making Lily do all these things? Who was trying to frame Arabella? Lily dropped her head and cried, “I messed up. | saw Ms. Bella coming back to this house, and it seemed like Serena was being overlooked, so | held a grudge against Ms. Bella. | wanted to make her look foolish. I just wanted her to take a little tumble, but in the end, it was Serena and Martha who fell.” After saying all this, she knelt crying in front of Serena and said, “I'm so sorry, Serena. | didn’t mean to hurt you. I'm truly sorry.” She took all the blame for herself.
With a pained heart, Serena said, “Lily, your way of showing affection is wrong. | was never neglected in this house. Mom and Dad are great to me, and so is my sister. You misunderstood my sister and made our parents mad. You really let me down!” “I'm sorry, Serena. | disappointed your kindness.” From the side, Martha also reprimanded, “Lily, you shouldn't have deleted the surveillance footage. You're just making it look like 1 deliberately spilled the oil and colluded with you. You deleted the footage to frame Ms. Bella. If that's true, | can't let it go.” “I'm sorry, Martha. | messed up. It has nothing to do with you.” Knowing that Serena would make it up to her, Lily took all the blame: “No one put me up to this. It was all on me. | was just jealous of Ms. Bella and wanted to get back at her. It has nothing to do with Serena or Martha.” “You can leave now. This family won't keep you around anymore, and none of the Collins family’s—businesses will welcome you or your family!” After saying these words, Louisa turned to Holly and said, “You should leave too. Whoever dares to disrespect Bella will suffer the same fate!” “Yes!” The other servants all lowered their heads, thinking, ‘The lady really cares for Ms. Bella! Tears streaming down their faces, Lily and Holly thanked the Collins couple for their leniency, bid Serena farewell, apologized to Arabella, and then went upstairs to pack their things.
“Now, it's time to settle your score.” Louisa’s gaze fell on Serena with a hint of frostiness.
Clutching her leg, Serena cried out, “Mom, let me explain! | did have a crush on my brother-in-law because he’s been my betrothed since we were kids. It's normal for me to have feelings for him. But then, one day, my sister showed up.” Tears streamed down Serena's face. “I couldn't control my feelings for him and impulsively said things | shouldn't have.
Afterwards, Martha scolded me harshly, and | realized my mistake. | swear, from now on, I'll treat him as my brother-in-law! You can ask Martha; | haven't even seen him lately! How could | be all over him?” Martha quickly defended, saying, “Ma’am, everything Serena,said is true. Since then, she’s got a boyfriend.” This news stunned Serena and everyone else.
Kenneth and Louisa were even more surprised: “A boyfriend?” “Yes, the heir of the Cooper family, Martin Cooper. He's been pursuing Serena since middle school, for a full six years. Recently, Serena was moved by him and agreed to give him a shot.”
