Chapter 661
Later on, Chasel dropped Myrna off at her doorstep, telling her, "Behave yourself and try to spend more
time with your family when you can."
In their line of work, being away from home for months at a time was par for the course.
Myrna wrapped her arms around Chasel's neck, stood on her tiptoes, gave him a lingering kiss, then
said, "You're off work for the next couple of days. You'll get bored hanging out with your sister alone.
Why not take me along? Girls have more in common, right?"
Chasel looked down at her, gently saying, "You should get back to work."
Myrna retorted, "No, I'm sticking with you!"
Chasel eventually gave in, saying, "Alright, we'll head back together in three days."
Myrna exclaimed happily, "Awesome!"
After saying her reluctant goodbyes to Chasel and barely stepping into her house, she received a
message.
She thought it was from Arabella, but to her surprise, it was from Serena. Her mood instantly deflated.
[Are you home yet?] Serena's message read.
Before Myrna could reply, Serena sent another message: [Arabella grew up in a small town. I don't
know if she's been influenced by the locals. What I'm trying to say is, you should be careful with
whatever she gives you.]
Annoyed, Myrna replied, [What are you talking about?]
[The gift she gave you in the garden earlier.] Serena clarified.
Myrna realized. [So you've been spying on us since then?]
[No, I just happened to pass by and saw.] Serena quickly defended.
Myrna asked, [Do you have a problem with Bella?]
Just one night, and Myrna had already started calling Arabella "Bella". That was fast.
[You've got it all wrong. I was just trying to be nice.] Serena replied.
Was Myrna already pulling rank, even though she just started dating Chasel?
Myrna retorted, [What Bella gave me was medicine! To help my wound heal faster.] After saying that,
Myrna snapped a picture of the bottle and sent it over, saying, [It's made by a reputable company; I'm
sure it's fine. Besides, what does she stand to gain if something happened to me?]
Who would dare harm someone as important as Myrna?
Looking at the medicine, Serena could tell it must've cost a pretty penny.
Who would have thought Arabella would go to such lengths to win over Myrna?
She must be up to something!
[I should keep my mouth shut to avoid good intentions backfiring.] Serena replied.
[Then shut up already!] Myrna shot back.
Men might be slow on the uptake when it came to emotional affairs, but she could clearly see
something was up.
[I heard that when Bella first came back to this house, it was only because she agreed that you could
stay. Is that right?] Myrna asked.
Serena clenched her phone. [What are you implying?]
Myrna: [You should be grateful to those who've helped you. Your current lifestyle, the comforts you
enjoy, and the respect you receive are all thanks to her agreement! Isn't that reason enough to be
thankful?]
Serena clenched her phone tighter, never expecting Myrna to side with Arabella so blatantly.
Myrna: [Your parents only want peace within the family. And whoever stirs the pot, well, do I need to
remind you what happens to them? Also, what's wrong with someone from a small town? My dad came
from one, and look where he is now, all thanks to his own hard work! I was raised by him and became a
deputy minister through my own efforts. Do you feel threatened by people from small towns?]
