First Love Only? I Left Him First, Now the CEO Can't Let Go novel Chapter 214

Chapter 214: Chapter 214: Serena Jennings Is My Wife

It’s been years since they last met, and Aaron Linton has grown older. However, his spirits are quite good; with slicked-back hair and dressed in a suit, he certainly has the aura of a high-ranking political official.

Thanks to good care, Jade Shaw shows barely any signs of aging.

The first thing Serena Jennings noticed was the glistening tears in Jade Shaw’s eyes.

Jade Shaw tightly held Aaron Linton’s hand, clearly trying her best to suppress her excitement.

Yet, in Serena Jennings’ eyes, that excitement was worthless.

Serena Jennings turned and tried to walk away but was stopped by Aaron Linton.

"Ah... Serena..."

Serena Jennings heard Aaron Linton calling her, but she did not stop.

Instead, Peter, who had his arm linked with Serena, paused.

He was puzzled as to why the Foreign Minister of Country C would know Serena Jennings.

"Serena, Minister Linton is calling you!"

Lilian Young walked over, first glaring at Serena Jennings, then said to Aaron Linton, "I’m sorry, Minister Linton, she’s quite rude."

Aaron Linton’s expression instantly turned cold.

"Does Mrs. Lockwood know Serena Jennings?"

"Oh, I know her very well; I used to be her..."

Before Lilian Young could finish speaking, Arthur Lockwood cleared his throat.

Lilian Young immediately silenced herself.

She almost forgot they had never revealed to the Linton Family that Caleb Lockwood was once married and is now divorced.

Arthur Lockwood was truly fed up with Lilian Young’s inability to keep her mouth shut.

Aaron Linton calmly glanced at Arthur Lockwood and Lilian Young, his eyes no longer as friendly.

"Serena Jennings, you know them?"

"Whether I do or don’t is none of your business."

Serena Jennings’ attitude didn’t anger Aaron Linton; instead, it upset Lilian Young.

"What kind of attitude is this! Did Minister Linton provoke you..."

"Mrs. Lockwood."

Serena Jennings stepped forward, her face stern, and approached Lilian Young.

Lilian Young shrank back, suddenly feeling as if she was swallowed by Serena Jennings’ aura.

"You are no longer my mother-in-law. You have no right to lecture me. Please respect yourself."

"Mother-in-law?!"

Aaron Linton and Jade Shaw both exclaimed in shock.

At this moment, Caleb Lockwood and Wendy Linton also walked over.

"Serena Jennings is my wife..."

This introduction took Wendy Linton by surprise.

It also caught Serena Jennings off guard.

Shouldn’t he say ex-wife!

Just as she opened her mouth to explain, Lilian Young spoke up first.

"They’re already divorced now."

Aaron Linton’s frown grew more severe.

Lilian Young mistook Aaron Linton’s dissatisfaction as Caleb Lockwood being unworthy due to his divorce, so she quickly clarified:

"Caleb was forced to marry Serena Jennings to repay a debt, pushed by his grandfather; it doesn’t count..."

"You say fewer words."

Arthur Lockwood couldn’t help but lower his voice to scold Lilian Young.

Aaron Linton didn’t look at Lilian Young the entire time; his gaze passed through the guests and fell on Chance Bell.

Chance Bell could see Aaron Linton’s disapproval.

But he felt he was innocent.

Back then, when Chloe Linton became Serena Jennings, Aaron Linton told him personally that he didn’t need to report Serena Jennings’ specifics to him.

Then he bent his arm, indicating Wendy Linton should link hers.

Wendy Linton smiled confidently and linked her arm through Caleb’s.

As the two entered the dance floor, Caleb Lockwood turned to look at Serena Jennings, seeing her turn her face away, looking annoyed.

A charming smile curled lightly on his lips.

This smile fell into Wendy Linton’s eyes; with one hand linked with Caleb Lockwood and the other holding her fishtail dress skirt, she walked with even more confidence.

Wendy Linton’s red embroidered fishtail gown was eye-catching, and with her great figure, dancing with Caleb Lockwood made them a perfect couple, instantly becoming the focus of the dance floor.

Lilian Young folded her arms and said smugly to Serena Jennings:

"See? Only a proper lady like Wendy Linton is worthy of Caleb."

"Hmm, then I wish them early bliss and everlasting harmony."

Serena Jennings tossed Lilian Young a radiant smile.

If Caleb Lockwood really married Wendy Linton, it would be like revenge on Claire Shaw; why wouldn’t she be happy?

Seeing Serena Jennings confidently turn away, Lilian Young rolled her eyes, muttering to herself:

"Hmph, just putting on a brave face."

Serena Jennings originally planned to enter the dance floor with Peter, but before they could, someone stopped them.

This man had blond hair and blue eyes, wearing an extremely formal black tailcoat, with a white bow tie, exuding an aura of nobility with every gesture.

Seeing Prince William of Zephyria, Lilian Young instantly became interested.

"Honey, look! Isn’t Serena Jennings about to be kicked out?"

Lilian Young laughed with schadenfreude.

"Of course, this kind of occasion is only for the powerful elite; what kind of place is it for Serena Jennings?"

Lilian Young pulled Arthur Lockwood to watch the spectacle.

Beside them stood Aaron Linton, Jade Shaw, and Chance Bell, their eyes all focused on Serena Jennings.

Under the gaze of everyone, Prince William suddenly opened his arms and gave Serena Jennings a big bear hug.
