Claire Shaw understands Laura Sanders.
Laura Sanders is Dylan Quinn’s wife. When the scandal of Serena Jennings sleeping with Dylan Quinn broke out, Laura immediately confronted Serena.
Later, Dylan Quinn went to jail and she divorced him as well, but the impact of this incident on Laura Sanders’ family has not completely dissipated to this day, causing her own business to plummet.
So Laura Sanders should hate Serena Jennings bitterly.
As expected, after Claire’s instigation, Laura picked up the cocktail glass next to her and strode towards Serena.
Serena had just finished dancing and separated from Peter, standing alone at the dessert area picking sweets.
Claire quietly distanced herself but continued to watch the situation unfold.
The drink in Laura’s hand was switched by Claire, and it was spiked with acid.
As long as Laura splashed this drink on Serena’s face, Serena would undoubtedly be disfigured.
Then, forget Caleb Lockwood, no man in the world would want Serena.
Regardless of feelings or career, Serena would lose everything.
While watching Laura approach Serena, Claire curled her lips in triumph.
Serena heard the increasingly loud sound of high heels, clearly heading her way, and only then did she look up.
Before she could see who it was, a drink was splashed directly at her face.
Serena’s eyes widened, unable to react, when a shadow unexpectedly blocked the drink for her.
Sizzle!
The sound of acid burning attracted attention from more and more people.
Laura was convinced she could splash a drink on Serena’s face for relief, not expecting it to splash on Caleb Lockwood instead, and even more exaggerated, Caleb’s suit was corroded to the point of smoking.
Laura threw the glass down with a clang and fled in panic.
Claire was hidden among the crowd, also stunned.
She couldn’t believe Laura could fail even at splashing a drink properly.
Even more surprising was that Caleb would shield Serena.
Serena herself was the most shocked.
Though Caleb quickly took off his acid-splashed suit, his skin was still burned and already stuck to the shirt.
Serena immediately poured a glass of water on Caleb’s arm and urgently asked the staff to prepare scissors.
One glass wasn’t enough, she poured another.
A kind person nearby helped Serena by handing her water.
After the acid concentration was lowered, Serena took the scissors offered by the staff and cut open Caleb’s shirt.
Caleb’s arm was already blistered from the burn.
"You need to go to the hospital."
"No need."
"You must go."
Serena asserted herself in front of Caleb for once.
She took the initiative, holding Caleb’s hand and led him out of the main banquet hall.
The commotion naturally attracted Peter’s attention, but seeing Serena taking the initiative with Caleb, he hesitated for a long time and remained still.
He felt he had no right to stop Serena.
Serena led Caleb outside the venue.
She originally intended to take Caleb to the hospital by taxi, but Caleb told her he had a car.
Serena looked at Caleb in surprise.
This was Country F, not Country A.
Caleb didn’t lie to Serena; he did have a car, arranged by the host specifically for him, complete with a car and driver.
Serena realized the difference in treatment between herself and Caleb.
In Caleb’s car, the driver only listened to Caleb, not Serena.
They didn’t end up going to the hospital but returned to the hotel instead.
The presidential suite was large and luxurious, with every conceivable amenity.
Serena felt Caleb’s residence was more like a vacation than attending a jewelry fashion week.
"The emergency medical kit is in the cabinet over there."
Caleb sat down on the sofa.
Serena rummaged through boxes and cabinets, finding the emergency medical kit to treat the burn on Caleb’s arm.
"You absolutely need to go to the hospital."
"A doctor may not handle it better than you."
Caleb casually said this.
