Forced to Marry the Sickly Billionaire-Chapter 55 - Public Humiliation

This area is bustling, attracting the attention of many.

Their eyes on Serena Summers are filled with the sense of gossip.

After Serena Summers finished her last sip of orange juice, she casually pulled out a napkin to wipe the corners of her lips.

Her movements were slow and methodical, showing no sign of panic.

Evan Summers looked at Serena, his eyes seemingly shooting flames.

Yet Serena remained calm and composed, her expression unchanging as if he did not exist at all.

Evan Summers has always been coddled by the Summers Family, how could he endure such humiliation?

He was about to explode.

At that moment, Serena Summers slowly spoke, her tone carrying a hint of coldness, “Who told you I eloped with someone?”

“Hah!

So you commit such despicable acts, and we shouldn’t talk about it?

Let me tell you, Serena, our family doesn’t acknowledge a daughter like you!”

Evan Summers stared at Serena’s porcelain-white face, immediately saying irritably, “Our Summers Family is neither short of food nor clothes because of you, you disgrace yourself by sleeping with an old man!”

“Smack—”

The sound of a smashing glass cup suddenly echoed, silence enveloping the surroundings.

Everyone turned to look at Serena, a flicker of shock in their eyes.

Those eyes, too cold.

Even though her facial features were delicately attractive and clear, her gaze was frighteningly cold, as if it could freeze someone to death.

Evan Summers was also startled, quickly taking a step back and yelling at Serena, “What are you doing!

Am I wrong in what I said?”

Serena Summers stood up, slowly approaching Evan, her lips parting lightly, “Evan, do you even know the truth?

Have you ever asked your parents why I left the Summers Family?

You talk about being kept, about sleeping with someone—don’t you know…

there’s a saying, seeing is believing?”

After finishing, she didn’t wait for Evan’s reaction, turned to face the onlookers and enunciated each word, “Evan, do you dare repeat what you just said in front of these people?”

“Repeat it, what will that change?

You, a woman with malicious intentions, who degrades herself!

I’m telling you, the Summers Family will never acknowledge you as a daughter again.”

Serena Summers smirked and pulled out several papers from her bag.

The papers were folded, looking thick.

Under the puzzled gazes of everyone, Serena lifted one document, her gaze coldly fixed on Evan.

“Eldest daughter of the Summers Family, Serena Summers, promises to marry Mr.

Lucas Shaw of Shaw Family, voluntarily giving up all rights to the Summers Family’s inheritance in exchange for severing all familial ties with the Summers Family.”

Her back straight, her gaze calm, she delivered these words without a hint of emotion, as if discussing something trivial.

The onlookers were stunned, their faces filled with shock and confusion.

What is this turning into?

Didn’t Evan just confidently claim that Serena had eloped with an old man?

How did it turn into severing ties voluntarily now?

Evan was also in shock.

He shook his head in disbelief, “No, what you said isn’t true!

You’re lying to me!

Serena, don’t think that by saying this you can gain my sympathy!”

Serena Summers looked at him expressionlessly, then took out another document.

This time, it was significantly thicker than the previous severance agreement.

It was the investment contract from Shaw Group to the Summers Family’s company a few days ago.

This matter was already well-known in the city.

As the most notable major enterprise in the city, every move of Shaw Group was closely watched.

Just a few days ago, many received the news that Shaw Family had suddenly invested in a small, virtually unknown company on the brink of bankruptcy.

Everyone was utterly confused, unable to comprehend what the Shaw Family was plotting with this move.

Many business magnates racked their brains but couldn’t figure out what was so appealing about the Summers Family’s company that the Shaw Group would invest three billion directly.

Now, they finally understood.

It turned out that the Summers Family had made a deal with the Shaw Family.

In order to save their company from bankruptcy, the Summers Family did not hesitate to offer their biological daughter as a commodity to Mr.

Lucas Shaw.

After realizing this, everyone showed a shocked expression.

The Summers Family…

If they remembered correctly, they seemed to be a third-tier wealthy family, barely making a name for themselves in the circle of elites.

The only thing worth boasting about was probably their marriage alliance with the Parker Family, which ranked just after the Shaw Family.

“Poor little girl.

I heard that a month ago, the Summers Family found their lost biological daughter.

I thought they would treat her well, but alas…”

The crowd looked over in puzzlement, only to hear the person continue, “You probably know of Grace Summers, right?

The popular young actress—that’s the Summers Family’s foster daughter!”

As soon as these words were out, the surroundings erupted in an uproar.

What?

Grace Summers is actually the Summers Family’s foster daughter?

Then does that mean the person here is the Summers Family’s biological daughter?

“I also thought she was a foster daughter, who would think someone would actually be cruel enough to sell their own biological daughter as a commodity!”

“The marriage contract with the Parker Family should belong to Serena Summers, right?

Then why…”

Someone weakly chimed in.

Although the statement was only half finished, everyone understood.

If there was a marriage contract with the Parker Family, it was supposed to be with Serena, then it must be Grace, not Serena, who is going to the Shaw Family in exchange?

The Summers Family is really despicable!

Spoiling a foster daughter is one thing, but using a biological daughter as a business bargaining chip!

In that moment, everyone looked at Serena with eyes filled with sympathy and pity.

Many of the onlookers had children of their own, and were instantly filled with anger.

“If this arrangement is true, then everything the Third Young Master Summers said about being kept and eloping must be false!”

“Yes, that’s really shameless!

Not only treating Serena as a bargaining chip but also slandering others!

What on earth are their intentions!

This kind of scum doesn’t deserve to be a brother at all!”

Suddenly, Evan Summers became the target of public outrage.

He shook his head incredulously, “No, it can’t be true, these aren’t real!

My mom clearly said…”

He believed his mom, who told him that Serena had run off with some random man.

Why would this happen?

Evan Summers shook his head incredulously, stepping forward and snatched the documents from Serena’s hands.

It was not until he saw the last page, his gaze abruptly froze.

One, ten…

one billion.

Three billion.

It was really three billion.

Evan’s legs went weak, and he couldn’t help but step back.

He hung his head, not daring to meet Serena’s eyes.

The hands hanging by his side were clenched into fists, veins popping on the back of his hands.

Evan still gritted his teeth and firmly told himself, it couldn’t be.

His parents were indeed good to Serena.

Bringing her home, providing her food and shelter.
