First Love Only? I Left Him First, Now the CEO Can't Let Go novel Chapter 107

Chapter 107: Chapter 107: She Isn’t Wearing Underwear Underneath

That night, Serena stayed at the old house and personally prepared a table full of dishes, all of which were Lance Lockwood’s favorites.

Just as Lance Lockwood sat down, they heard the maid, Mrs. Wang, shout from the door, "Old Master, Madam, the Young Master has returned."

Serena was taken aback.

She naturally knew that the "Young Master" Mrs. Wang mentioned referred to Caleb Lockwood.

She had thought she wouldn’t see Caleb Lockwood at the old house today!

Usually, whenever Caleb returned, not only would Mrs. Wang warmly greet him, but Lance Lockwood would also wear a kindly smile.

After all, Caleb Lockwood was Lance Lockwood’s only grandson, and he was so outstanding.

However, this time, Serena noticed that Lance Lockwood’s attitude towards Caleb was rather unfavorable.

"What are you doing back here? Came to mooch a meal?"

Seeing Lance Lockwood’s grumpiness, Caleb immediately walked over and bent down to massage Lance Lockwood’s shoulders.

"Grandpa knows me well."

"I don’t understand you at all; you’re all grown up now, got your wings and don’t listen to a word your grandpa says."

Even when being scolded by Lance Lockwood, Caleb’s gentle smile never wavered.

"Grandpa’s right; it’s all my fault."

Serena watched from the side with a slight frown.

It seemed Lance Lockwood was angry at Caleb over their impending divorce.

Yet Caleb never lost his temper with Lance Lockwood.

In Serena’s memory, Caleb wasn’t even that close to his own parents.

Though Arthur Lockwood and Lilian Young appeared to care a lot about Caleb, there was always a distant politeness between them, and Caleb treated them equally distantly.

Realizing she was actually interested in Caleb’s family dynamics, Serena shook her head.

They were about to divorce, so why bother thinking about it.

Caleb finally whispered a heap of good-natured words into Lance Lockwood’s ear, earning himself a place at the table.

Caleb sat down, facing Serena.

"I thought you wouldn’t be coming today."

Serena spoke softly.

She remembered Caleb mentioning that there was work to be done at the company.

"It’s the Double Ninth Festival today. I had to come celebrate with Grandpa; if it wasn’t for work, I could’ve come earlier."

Serena believed Caleb’s words, but Lance Lockwood did not.

"Serena, don’t listen to his high-sounding excuses. He’s just craving the food you cook."

Lance Lockwood winked at Caleb, hoping he’d follow his lead.

"No," Caleb shook his head gently, "I’m not picky about food."

"You brat!" Lance Lockwood was so enraged by Caleb that he was grinding his teeth.

Serena wanted to laugh but couldn’t.

She understood that Lance Lockwood hadn’t given up.

When they were in the park that day, she had already admitted to Lance Lockwood that she and Caleb were preparing to sign the divorce agreement, and she even had the divorce papers in her hands.

Lance Lockwood sighed and said nothing against the divorce.

Seizing the chance, Serena subtly inquired whether Lance Lockwood intended to give her shares in The Lockwood Group—only for Lance Lockwood to assume she wanted them, and he said she could have as much as she desired.

Lance Lockwood’s reaction confirmed to Serena that regardless of anything, the person who insisted on giving her ten percent of The Lockwood Group—

was Caleb Lockwood.

The atmosphere at the table remained pleasant; Lance Lockwood repeatedly praised Serena’s cooking, and Caleb chimed in with a few compliments.

Outside the mansion, night had fallen.

Serena had initially planned to stay overnight at the old house, but she hadn’t expected Caleb would be there too.

She feared Lance Lockwood might have Mrs. Wang prepare a room for her and Caleb together.

Previously, when they visited the old house, they indeed shared a room.

At this particular juncture, they still had not divorced.

Even just to appease Grandpa, she and Caleb shouldn’t sleep in separate rooms.

But Serena really didn’t want to share a bed with Caleb anymore.

It seemed every time Caleb came to the old house, Claire would call him. 𝗳𝐫𝚎𝗲𝚠𝚎𝗯𝕟𝐨𝘃𝚎𝗹.𝗰𝗼𝗺
