Burn the Marriage, Keep the Crown novel Chapter 146

Serena unfolded the invitation and realized, to her surprise, that Yvonne was hosting an antique exhibition.

The event would undoubtedly attract numerous collectors.

She had been worried about finding potential clients.

And these people? They were precisely the clientele she needed.

"Did you seek out Yvonne for me?" Serena asked, glancing at Samuel.

Samuel simply smiled without answering, then asked, "Shall we go?"

Seeing the anticipation in Samuel's eyes, Serena felt a wave of gratitude wash over her. She nodded, "Yes."

The following evening, they headed to the exhibition together.

As expected, several renowned collectors from Alderburg were present.

Serena's intention was simply to make an appearance, get acquainted with them, and, ideally, exchange contact details.

Therefore, she wasn't in a hurry. Upon entering the exhibition hall, she focused her attention on the items on display.

Samuel noticed her bright eyes fixed on the antiques, and couldn't help but smile. "Do you really like antiques that much?"

Serena gazed at a gold-inlaid jade hairpin behind the glass. "Yes, they’re not just objects; they're like living historians. If you listen closely, can’t you hear them narrating tales from the past?"

Samuel's smile deepened.

Just then, a lively voice interrupted.

"Samuel! It's really you! I thought..." Yvonne's smile froze when she spotted Serena. "What are you doing here?"

Serena's intuition told her that Yvonne hadn't forgotten Samuel over the years.
