Chapter 142 Let Me Go! I Cried

• Serena's POV:
• The sting of Adrian’s words still echoed in my mind as I left the mansion. I couldn't stay in a place where I felt so betrayed and hurt. He didn’t even want to hear my side of the story, that alone shattered my heart. I flagged down a cab, slipping into the back seat with a sinking heart.
• As the cab drove through the night, I tried to calm myself, but the weight of the situation was overwhelming. I didn’t want to go to my father’s apartment—not with everything falling apart. I needed somewhere to think, to be alone, away from everyone who might judge or pity me.
