Till Death Do We Part (Serenity and Jax) novel Chapter 14

<Till death do we part) Chapter 14 

Menu 

Overnight, the reputation of Rylee, Jax, and even Jax’s company plummeted. 

Sponsors dropped Rylee, demanding millions in compensation. Angry fans 

besieged the hospital, throwing garbage at her. If Jax’s mother hadn’t sent 

bodyguards to protect her, she would have had a miscarriage. Jax, known for 

loving his fiancee, faced a backlash; sponsors and shareholders abandoned 

Landry Corp. His affair showed that he could betray anyone. The company 

teetered on the brink of collapse; Jax and his father worked frantically to save it. 

All of this had nothing to do with Serenity. She was gone. 

After faking her death, she settled in Italy under a new identity. Her new 

name was Sera Evans. She used her inheritance and the money Jax had given her 

to open a cafe. 

“Sera,” a familiar voice sounded. Sera turned, delighted.“Liam! What are you 

doing here?” 

Liam smiled, ruffling her hair. She blushed. They had known each other for 

a while, and she was still shy around him. 

When she came to Italy, she was lost and didn’t know what to do. Liam had 

helped her settle in, supporting her quietly. They became close, but she didn’t 

agree to be with him. She couldn’t risk another heartbreak. 

Liam understood. He treated her like a younger sister. He said that he’d

always be there for her whether she was his girlfriend or not. 

“You wanted hot pot, right? It’s ready. Let’s go to my place.” 

Sera’s eyes lit up. She grabbed two bottles of homemade fruit wine and 

locked up the cafe. 

“I mentioned it once and you bear that in mind?” Hot pot ingredients weren’t 

easy to find here. Liam smiled, opening the door.“Please.” 

Sera blushed, changing her shoes. The aroma of hot pot filled the air. She 

handed Liam the wine. 

“I made it myself. Hope you like it.” 

He smiled. “I’m so going to love it.” 

Then, Sera’s alarm blared. She yelled from the bedroom, “Liam, come on! It’s 

Aurora!” 

They sprawled on the rug, gazing at the shimmering lights through the 

skylight. The deep blue lights and soft green lights danced across the heavens, so 

mesmerizing that stole their breath. Even after countless auroras, Sera was still 

captivated. 

Later that night, Sera was in Ethan’s guest room, scrolling through TikTok. 

A video popped up.

[Headline: Landry Corp’s former CEO, Jax Landry, resigned for personal 

reasons; His half–brother Lance Cloud, takes the reins.] 

Sera paused. Jax’s affair with Rylee had been all over the news when she left. 

Landry Corp, a global conglomerate, had offices everywhere, even in Italy. The 

scandal had tanked the stock, forcing the closure of many international branches, 

including the Italian one. 

Back then, she’d expected a feeling of triumph, given how much Jax had 

hurt her. Instead, she felt nothing. Just… nothing. She swiped past the video, 

feeling drowsy and 

groggy. 

The next morning, Liam had already made breakfast. After she ate, he 

handed her an invitation. 

“What’s this?” Sera asked. 

“The Chinese here are going to hold a mid–autumn Festival party,” Liam 

explained. “They sent invitations to everyone in town. It’s up to you, of course. I 

just… figured you might like to get out and meet some people.” There was a hint 

of self–reproach in his voice. He suddenly remembered that Sera preferred to 

be alone. 

Sera didn’t answer directly. Instead, she asked, “Will you go there?” 

Liam shrugged, a smile playing on his lips. “I’m flexible.”
