First Love Only? I Left Him First, Now the CEO Can't Let Go novel Chapter 278

Chapter 278: Chapter 278: Getting a Hotel Room

He thought that after he and Serena Jennings were divorced in name, Serena no longer cared about him.

However, in reality, the one who saved him time and time again was Serena.

Whether before marriage, after marriage, or even after divorce... Serena silently sacrificed so much for him.

And when Serena was kidnapped, cyberbullied, framed...

Where was he?

Caleb Lockwood clutched his chest hard.

The pain in his heart was suffocating, making his vision blur with darkness.

"Caleb, what are you doing here?"

Arthur Lockwood’s voice came from behind.

Caleb turned his head, searching with his eyes beside Arthur Lockwood.

"Where’s Serena?"

"Why are you still looking for her? She’s been around with other men, making a fool of you. What’s there to be reluctant about such a woman... Listen to your dad and divorce her quickly."

Arthur Lockwood spoke decisively.

"I won’t divorce Serena."

"Are you under a spell! If you don’t divorce Serena, how can our Lockwood Family have an alliance with The Linton Family?!"

Arthur Lockwood roared.

Caleb saw behind Arthur, Wendy Linton was coming out of the ward accompanied by Lilian Young.

A charming smile instantly lifted on his lips.

"I never thought of forming an alliance with The Linton Family. The initial reason I agreed to meet Wendy was just to annoy Serena."

Wendy Linton’s professional fake smile vanished when she heard Caleb’s words.

Arthur Lockwood belatedly noticed Wendy and immediately left with Lilian Young to explain for Caleb.

In the hallway, Caleb stood alone.

Each angle of his sculpted face was cast in a shadow of loneliness.

He instinctively took out his phone and dialed Serena’s number.

As if only Serena could fill the emptiness in his heart.

"Hello?"

A man’s voice came through the phone.

Caleb’s face instantly darkened.

"Where’s Serena?"

"Serena is showering!"

On the other end, Ethan White was carrying large bags and casually lied while looking at the enthusiastic Serena and Lana Xavier shopping ahead.

"Serena and I are in the hotel, do you need something from her?"

Ethan continued to provoke Caleb.

The silence on the line was as if no one was listening.

But Ethan knew well that Caleb was listening.

"Caleb Lockwood, does it truly matter keeping Serena bound by marriage?"

"..."

"Serena doesn’t love you, and she doesn’t want to be your wife... even if you’re not divorced yet, it doesn’t stop her from booking into a hotel with me. If you enjoy watching your wife nest with other men, I don’t mind either."

After speaking, Ethan hung up and put the phone back in Serena’s handbag.

The hospital corridor was silent, only a shattered phone laid on the floor.

Serena was accompanying Lana Xavier shopping at the mall.

Even though she helped Lana choose many clothes and accessories, it wasn’t the main purpose of their shopping trip.

"Julian Xavier said he encountered a bottleneck in developing a new system, so I thought, maybe giving him a gift could make him happy..."

Lana said this when calling Serena.

Without much experience in relationships, and doubting her own taste, Lana asked Serena for help in choosing a gift.

Too expensive was beyond Lana’s budget, too cheap felt unpresentable.

After an entire afternoon, they bought a lot of women’s clothing, but the right gift remained elusive.

"Why not try a different approach, Lana?"

Serena was getting a bit tired from all the shopping.

A suit? Lana didn’t know Julian’s measurements, fearing it wouldn’t fit.
