Catching her fiancé cheating would be a tough pill to swallow for anyone.
"Serena, men are like that. They party hard and play around before marriage, but they settle down afterward,” One of them offered her point of view.
"You guys aren't even officially married yet, let him go out and have his fun for a couple more years. By the time you graduate and become the lady of the McMillian family, let's see if those girls still dare to approach him; Another one suggested.

"Once he's had his fun, he'll realize that you're the best, and he'll focus all his attention on you,’ the last one assured her.
But those words of comfort didn't help Serena at all. She looked up, her eyes filled with sadness, and asked, "If | wasn't the heiress of the Collins family, would you all still be my friend?" "Serena, what kind of question is that? We're friends with you because of your kindness, not because of your family background!" One of them retorted.
"Yeah, look at the heiress of the Bradshaw family in our school, | don't even bother to talk with her.’ "Serena, are you hiding something? If there's anything troubling you, just tell us, and we'll help you solve it." Serena wanted to speak up several times, but, in the end, she kept silent. She lost her appetite and just picked at her food.

Martha went on to say that if things continued like that, her place in the family would slowly be taken over by Arabella.
"Serena, it's not that | want to criticize, but you're too kind. You're trying to make amends with her, bringing her food and drinks, checking on her, but has she ever responded to your efforts? To be honest, she doesn't need a sister right now.
Your existence only threatens her place in the family. Serena, it's time for you to wake up. You've humiliated yourself, and all you've got in return is more and more disdain and contempt from your family." Martha's words echoed in Serena's mind. She didn't know what she had done wrong and why it was so hard to change.
Did she still need to persevere? The next afternoon, Arabella arrived at the location Jennifer had booked as agreed.
