Chapter 1953
Well, it caused a sensation like a rock concert!
"Did you send it out already?"
"So, you two are like over the moon about her?"
"Over the moon? More like over the stars!" Phillip gushed, grinning from ear to ear. "If we're standing
here today, it's all thanks to her! She's a whiz in medicine, cured both of us with her skills. Some of the
treatments were rarer than a blue moon, and she managed to get them somehow."
Everyone was gobsmacked. Could it be that Serena was that impressive? She could cure the elders'
ailments?
A bunch of folks knew Phillip had his ticker operated on more times than he'd care to count, it was
practically patched together like a quilt. Even the renowned Dr. James Newton was at his wits' end with Content is property of NôvelDrama.Org.
it.
And wasn't Shirley practically in a vegetative state? She got cured too?
When did Serena ever study medicine?
Since when did she become so darn capable?
Skeptical as they were, people still snapped photos of Phillip and Shirley's beaming faces, some even
went live on the spot.
Then out of the second car stepped the ever-so-graceful Jennifer and the spirited George.
They too were swarmed by reporters, like bees to honey.
A reporter chased up the rumor about the Collins' heiress spending New Year's Eve with the McMillians
and sharing a feast with them. Jennifer cheerfully admitted, "Yes, that's right."
"And will you give her that heirloom aquamarine necklace you were saving for her?" another reporter
inquired curiously.
"It's already hers."
The crowd was stunned once more.
Jennifer had this unique, priceless aquamarine necklace, with 98 tiny diamonds and one huge one,
handed down from her mother on her eighteenth birthday.
It was a treasure passed from mother to daughter for five generations in her family.
She didn't have a daughter, just a son, Romeo. She had mentioned before that this necklace would one
day go to her daughter-in-law, and now she had given it away so soon!
This meant they too were absolutely smitten with the Collins' girl!
Goodness gracious, what kind of magic did Serena have to win over the hearts of all four of them?
Mind-blowing.
"Her virtues could fill a book that never ends, and she's got a big heart. Her first gift to me was a set of
limited edition jewelry from QY and an all-you-can-shop card from them," Jennifer continued.
Before anyone could process that, George chimed in, "She knew I was a fan of Labella's work, and her
first gift to me were six pieces of Labella's calligraphy."
There was a ripple of admiration through the crowd.
The Collins' girl was truly one of their own, generous to a fault!
Labella's works were like finding a needle in a haystack. It was rumored some pieces had vanished
from the market, and even with offers of thirty million dollars, no one would sell.
Yet, Serena gifted not one, but six pieces!
No wonder she had captured their hearts!
"Oh, and one more thing, every gift she gave us was bought with her own hard-earned money, not a
dime from her family's fortune," Jennifer added, sending the crowd into a mix of doubt and awe.
Although Serena had won numerous awards and prize money, the idea of her casually dropping that
kind of cash on gifts seemed a stretch.
"Mrs. McMillian has already gifted her most treasured aquamarine necklace to her future daughter-in-
law. Mr. McMillian, May I ask if you will, after their wedding, part with the emblematic gemstone key?" a
reporter asked, digging for more.
Everyone knew George held a jewel-encrusted key, engraved with the McMillian family crest, stunning
in design and priceless in value. It could unlock the McMillian family's vault of secrets, and even the
safety deposit boxes they held in international banks could be opened with this very key.
