แ
She had deliberately given Serena the identity of Ghost Doctor.
She was just betting on the fact that Ghost Doctor's whereabouts were a mystery,
and very few people in the world had ever seen the real person.
So, because Serena knew a little bit of traditional medicine, she had her
impersonate the legend, all to build up her public image!
And she was putting on that act, pretending to be nonchalant and untouchable.
How disgusting!
The more Isabella thought about it, the more convinced she became.
Catherine and Edward looked at their daughter, who was surrounded by people, their eyes filled with pride and a touch of heartache.
Their precious Serena...
They had no idea what hardships she had endured to become so formidable in so many different fields.
Ghost Doctor, a master pianist, and holding a high-level position at the national research institute...
It felt like there was nothing in the world she couldn't do.
Their biological daughter was bringing them more and more surprises and shocks. Julian immediately stepped forward, placing a protective arm in front of Serena.
His tall, slender figure shielded her completely. "Since you all know of Ghost Doctor's reputation, you should also be aware of her habits."
"Furthermore, Ghost Doctor is here today to attend the Blackwood family's young lady's coming-of-age ceremony, not for a private consultation. Your behavior is disturbing her."
The surrounding clamor gradually subsided.
Serena's languid eyes swept calmly over the crowd, her voice even and light as she spoke, “Today is Brianna's day. Let's not lose focus on what's important."
Even Ghost Doctor herself had spoken.
Though the other dignitaries and powerful figures were reluctant, they had no choice but to back down.
After all, this was Ghost Doctor!
Who would dare to offend such an unparalleled medical genius?
Who would be so tactless?
Moreover, it was clear that the Blackwood and Lancaster families were protecting Ghost Doctor, giving them no chance to get close.
One by one, they had no choice but to disperse awkwardly.
However, their gazes were still glued to Serena.
"So... that young woman is Ghost Doctor! No wonder Old Mr. Blackwood was so set on her."
"No wonder the Lancaster family is so protective of her."
"Wow, the Blackwood family has now allied with Ghost Doctor. A union of powerhouses. This... this won't just change the game in Vachon City, but across all of Elyndor, and even internationally."
"Ghost Doctor and the Blackwood family... they are indeed a good match."
Once the name Ghost Doctor was revealed, it didn't matter which family Serena belonged to.
No one would dare to object to her marrying into the Blackwood family.
Serena looked at her older brother standing before her in a completely protective stance. Her cool eyes softened, and a wave of warmth spread through them.
At that moment, the lights suddenly dimmed.
A gentle dance tune began to play.
In the darkness, a single warm spotlight precisely found Brianna.
The coming-of-age ceremony had moved on to the dance portion.
As the guest of honor, Brianna had to be the first to enter the dance floor and
perform the opening dance.
Brianna's bright, clear eyes sparkled under the warm light.
She smiled sweetly at Serena, her eyes crinkling, and silently mouthed, “Serena, I'm going first-"
After
pink she bounced away in her
pink gown, pulled Nathan Hart onto the dance floor, and began the opening dance.
Once the opening dance started, the surrounding lights brightened, casting a romantic and soft glow.
Serena stood at the edge of the dance floor, the flickering lights creating layered ripples across her.
She watched Brianna twirl and glide under the lights, her skirt flying.
Her face was radiant with pure, unadulterated joy.
So brilliant, so sweet.
Suddenly, a hand reached out in front of her-
