Chapter 520
“That’s right,” echoed Yuna. “It’s all because of this woman’s shamelessness! Who knows what kind of
sly tactics she used to balt Jackson to be with her?! I’m sure he had no idea about her being in prison!”
There was a flash of surprise in both Jenny and Zeke’s expressions when they heard this. Zeke was
about to say something, but Jenny furtively tugged at him, signaling him not to say anything about it.
Serenity could sense that more and more eyes were focused on them now. In fact, after hearing what
Julia had said just now, many people had turned to stare at her with looks of shock, some even with
disdain and mockery. They all seemed to regard her as a clown who was about to make a fool of
herself in public.
She sighed. It looked lilor she was about to embarrass Jack at this function today. After all, there was

Not wanting to remain there as a clown for everyone to laugh at, she turned around and made up her
mind to leave.
But this time, she had barely taken two steps when her body froze in place, which was then followed by
the sound of something getting torn.
She turned around and saw that Julia had stepped on the hem of her dress with her sharp stiletto heel,
tearing parts of her dress. If she had not stopped in time, the whole dress might have been pulled
down, and she would have ended up in a much more humiliating situation.
Julia smiled an artificial smile that showed how satisfied she was with herself before apologizing in an
exaggerated manner,” Ah, I’m so sorry! I must’ve accidentally stepped on your dress! How about this–
why don’t you go get this dress mended, and I’ll pay for the fees myself? Oh, but in any case, I don’t
think you’ll have any reason to put on this dress anymore, so it’d only bra waste of time!”
Serenity merely stared coldly at Julia. The look she gave even gave Julia goosebumps. It looked like
this situation did not embarrass Serenity at all. In fact, it was Julia who felt like she had made a
complete fool of herself, while Serenity remained dignified like a princess.
‘Hmph!‘ Julia silently thought. ‘A princess?! But she’s just a woman who has been in prison before!”
As Julia saw the look in Serenity’s eyes, she was filled with a sense of malicious disdain.
Meanwhile, Zandra and Yuna, who were standing aside, were both smiling with pursed lips. It was
obvious that they were enjoying this scene which must be mortifying for Serenity.
A look of anger flashed through Zeke’s eyes. Although he used to blame Serenity countless times
before for having been involved in that car crash which very nearly threw the Shaw family into hot
water, at the end of the day, Serenity was still the

However, he was with Jenny today, so he simply could not do anything for her now.
Just then, the figure of a man came into his view. In the past, the sight of this man always filled Zeke
with a sense of dread and terror, yet now, he felt inexplicably relieved to see him. Perhaps it was
because he lanew that at this moment, this man was Serenity’s most reliable protector.
“What’s wrong?” a voice asked. Serenity turned around and saw Jackson heading toward her with
Caleb Moss in tow.
As he neared her, he saw Julia’s foot on the hem of Serenity’s dress, which was already tom. He
immediately figured out what was going on, and his face turned dangerously dark.
Sensing this change, Julia awkwardly lifted her foot and was about to explain herself, but before she
could open her mouth, Jackson had raised his hand and shoved her away. At that point, she still had
not got a firm foothold on the ground, so she staggered uncontrollably and fell flat on her butt.
Jackson turned to Serenity and asked, “What happened?TM
