Chapter 1632
Hearing her mother addressed it was horrifying, Serena's tears cascaded down her cheeks, "I was just
blabbering. I had no idea Bella is Summer. People say whatever they want online. I was just spouting
nonsense. Mom, you have to believe me; you might not trust me on anything else, but on this, I really
am innocent!"
Louisa watched her sobbing and was utterly unmoved, her voice icy as she said, "Wait until Bella gets
back, you apologize to her in front of the whole family then you can pack your bags and leave."
Serena gazed blankly at Louisa, her mother who used to cherish her and now was ready to cast her
out. Not just cast her out, but demand an apology to Arabella before leaving, and in front of the whole
family?
The whole family? Including Grandma and Grandpa, her aunt and uncle? Was she trying to strip her of
her dignity completely?
"Mom, you're throwing me out? You don't want me anymore?" Serena's voice quivered as if bleeding,
"You once said, no matter what happens, I'll always be your princess; you said even if my sister came
back to this home, you'd treat us equally; you promised to watch me walk down the aisle in a wedding
dress."
"And now you have the nerve to say these things to me?" Louisa snapped, "You've brought this all on
yourself!"
They cherished her as their own, but she never appreciated it and always hurt their daughter behind
their backs. Caught a couple of times, she'd only pretend to be weak, innocent, falsely apologizing.
"Weren't you just too frail to pick up that branch over there, collapsing on the ground? How come now
you've got the energy to argue??" Louisa's tone was laced with scorn.
Startled, Serena saw her mother turn to leave and desperately lunged to cling to her feet, nearly
causing her to stumble. Had Kenneth not been there to catch her in time, Louisa would have taken a
nasty fall.
"Mom, please don't send me away. I really didn't know Bella is Summer." Serena's tears flowed like
river, "Nobody at home told me, and I swear to God, I really didn’t know. You can't force the blame on
me for something I didn't do."
"Let go," Louisa refused to listen to her explanations.
"Mom." Serena sobbed uncontrollably, "Don't throw me out. Where am I supposed to go? This is my
home; you and dad, you'll always be the closest people to me in this world."
"You still won't tell the truth??" Louisa was utterly disappointed, her heart chilled to the core. If Serena
had just come clean, as a mother, she wouldn't feel as disappointed as she did now.
"I said let go."
"I won't let, ahem."
Perhaps the cold had gotten to her, Serena shivered violently, but still clung tightly to Louisa's feet. She
cried out pitifully, "Mom, you'll always be my mom. You can hit me, scold me, punish me however you
like; just don't send me away."
"What are you waiting for? Pull her off!" Louisa's cold gaze fell on Betty.
Betty hurriedly pulled Serena away, "Ms. Serena, holding onto Mrs. Collins like that is making her
uncomfortable; if you have something to say, say it properly later."
"Let me go, let go," Serena couldn't believe this fool was holding her back at a time like this, not even
trying to plead on her behalf, just pulling at her.
Louisa turned and walked away, her figure resolute and detached.
"Serena, you've truly broken both of our hearts; you're such a disappointment," Kenneth dropped these
words and followed Louisa into the main house.
With the door closing mercilessly behind them, Serena crawled forward a few steps, "Dad, Mom."
