Messing With Her? Are You Crazy! novel Chapter 126

Their precious girl had just come back. Anyone who wanted to take her from them was an enemy!

The family was in perfect sync, speaking one after another in a seamless performance.

A childhood engagement?

It was a non-issue!

They wouldn't let anyone use that to trap their precious granddaughter/daughter/sister!

She should be free to choose who she loves. A forced arrangement was out of the question!

Nicholas seemed to have anticipated their reaction. Listening to them, the smile on his face grew even more captivating, his cool demeanor tinged with an ethereal charm.

"The elders are right."

He smiled, his intense gaze fixed on Serena. "That's why I'm not here today to force Serena into anything based on an old agreement. I just want to ask... what Serena herself thinks."

As he spoke, he leaned slightly in Serena's direction, his focus sharp and unwavering.

The elegant scent of pine once again drifted past Serena's nose.

Serena was at a loss for words.

So, when he had called out her name in that lingering, intimate tone outside the private room, it was all in preparation for this moment.

Just as she expected, the moment the Lancaster family heard Nicholas use her first name so familiarly, their expressions soured. They glared at him, their eyes practically shooting daggers.

Serena?

When did they get to know each other? Were they that close? Close enough for first names? Who gave him permission?

The Lancasters all turned to Serena in unison, their eyes wide, as if waiting for her to reject Nicholas Blackwood on the spot.

The entire room fell silent. All eyes were on Serena.
