Chapter 21

• Mary paced back-and-forth in Serene’s living room. “What do you plan to do now?” She looked at Serene, who sat at the couch. “I don’t know yet. I could go back home and start over.”
• “Have you told auntie and uncle already?” Serene never gave her family details about the reason she and Bryan broke up. They adored him and actually treated him as their son-in-law. It devastated them when they learned about their breakup.
• Serene did not want to hurt her parents. She was not sure how they would take the reason for their breakup, considering that they hold conservative perspectives. She shook her head to answer Mary’s question, looking very dejected.
