Ruining The Marriage

Serene looked like a black and silver jade marble statue. After hearing those words, her entire being suddenly stopped. There wasn't a response even after some seconds had passed, as if she was inwardly fighting against something and it caused her entire being to stop. 

A silence suddenly took over the whole place and even Qiao Xuan furrowed his eyebrows while feeling uncomfortable. No one knew the magnitude of the dilemma happening inside Serene's mind, but everyone felt that something was off. 

Qiao Bao started to sweat in anxiety, but he didn't know how to react or what to do exactly. He was about to open his mouth and say something to convince or coerce Serene, but suddenly, a gloomy aura enveloped the whole golden hall.
