Forgive? Never Novel Ch 85
Jeremiah knew Tehila made a good point too.
He looked at Tehila, smiling faintly: “Tila, whatever you want to do in the future, I’ve got your back. Seryna has to go through with the marriage.”
Using Seryna and Tehila for a marriage alliance to get the heir position was worth it.
Tehila understood what Jeremiah meant and was a little surprised too.
Jeremiah meant for her to go make trouble for Seryna, or to have Seryna marry someone useful.
Tehila suddenly thought of someone: “Jeremiah, Sera’s welcome–back party is tomorrow night. I remember the Hunter family has a scion. If Sera marries him and we get the Hunter family’s partnership, you can get back on the board.”
Jeremiah narrowed his calculating eyes and smiled, “Let Elisabeth bring Dorian Ortega along.”
Tehila gave a sweet smile: “Jeremiah, about what happened at the party, even if we didn’t do anything, there would still be people who didn’t want Seryna to have it easy.”
Elisabeth was the first one who wouldn’t let Seryna off easy.
She was a jewelry designer with an international reputation, really famous, and super arrogant. Someone like Seryna couldn’t handle someone like Elisabeth.
A hint of sarcasm flashed in Jeremiah’s eyes: “A girl fighting for the heir’s

spot? Just find someone to marry and you could still live a rich life.”
Tehila heard this and frowned a little.
These the Willard family people really were all selfish.

In the little yard at the foot of Mountain Maple.
Under the bright sunshine, the quiet little yard felt like a paradise, standing apart from the world.
All kinds of flowers in the yard gave off a light fragrance, making people feel relaxed and happy.
Veronica was doing tai chi in the yard, and a few colorful butterflies were dancing around her.
This kind of scene was really rare to see.
Gloria also walked back, carrying a veggie basket in her hand. There were green beans, fresh eggplants, chili peppers, and cabbages in the basket.
She saw Seryna and Yadira and smiled a little. “You’re a thoughtful girl, coming here so early.”
Seryna looked at the fresh veggies in her basket and smiled, “Gloria, having a garden is great. We can be self–sufficient, and the veggies are fresh and sweet.”
When Gloria was young, she farmed. She had a small yard to grow vegetables, and she actually thought life was pretty interesting.
“Isn’t it? These were all grown with organic fertilizer, and they tasted really good.”

“Let’s go, let’s go in first.”
Gloria went to the kitchen.
Seryna walked over with a muffin and saw Veronica, who looked pretty good. She was doing tai chi.
She was born into a scholarly family, her vibe was like ink, showing a real bookish aura.
She smiled and said, “Good morning, Ms. Scott!”

Veronica looked at Seryna and said, not too warmly or coldly, “Good morning!”
Seryna didn’t bother her, but put down her muffin and did tai chi with her.
After one round, both of them had sweat on their faces.
Veronica smiled at Seryna, “Sera, you know how to do tai chi too?”
Seryna smiled and explained, “Ms. Scott, I grew up in the mountains. My master got up every morning and made me exercise with them.”
“So that’s how it was!” Veronica picked up a towel nearby and wiped the sweat off her face.
Looking at the muffin on the stone table, she was surprised: “How did you know I liked muffins?”
Seryna smiled and said, “Ms. Scott, as long as you care, you can know anything.”
“You were really thoughtful. The youngest designer in the jewelry world was Elisabeth. Why didn’t you go to her? Why did you come to me, an old person?”

After Veronica finished speaking, she quietly looked at Seryna.
Seryna thought of Elisabeth’s designs. She had seen them in the materials Calbert gave her. She shook her head and said, “Ms. Scott, Elisabeth’s designs have no soul. I’ve seen her drawings. Her earlier designs were really good, but the ones from the past year or so are totally different from before. There’s no soul or anything worth learning from. I think she doesn’t live up to her reputation.”

Veronica heard what Seryna said, and when her hands were at her sides, she tightened them a little.
So, it turned out some people could tell that what Elisabeth said got worse year after year.
Seryna saw Veronica waver a little, so she went on, “Ms. Scott, if I could help you get your reputation back tomorrow, would you come to my company as design director?”
Veronica paused for a second, then realized what Seryna meant. She was really surprised: “Sera, do you know what you’re saying? Can you really go up against the Fortin family?”
