Chapter 75 The celebration party for Vance Holdings was being held at the most luxurious hotel in Alderburg-Cloudcrest City. This hotel was not just any hotel; it was a landmark of Alderburg, renowned for its unique architecture. Its asymmetrical shape, with large ends and a narrow middle, made it famous worldwide. Standing at a towering height of 600 meters, it offered a breathtaking view of the entire city.
However, staying here didn't ccheap. The costs were among the highest in the nation, with a single night running into hundreds of thousands, if not more. This was why every Vance Holdings employee who received an invitation showed up eagerly. They had heard whispers that Mr. Vance was going to make an important announcement tonight.

"I doubt it. Mr. Vance usually leaves those decisions to Victor. I think he might be announcing a wedding," another replied.
"True, he was quite protective of Miss Lynwood recently. Maybe it's her?" someone suggested.
"I think it's Miss Sullivan. Didn't you see her non the invite list?" another added.
As the chatter continued- The grand doors of the ballroom swung open. Serena, dressed in elegant attire, appeared at the entrance, drawing all eyes to her. The room buzzed with disbelief. Though she rarely visited Vance Holdings, everyone there knew of her. But the confident, stylish Serena before them now was a world apart from the timid figure they remembered. Could it really be the sperson? Ignoring the whispers, Serena strode in confidently on her heels. The hotel was bustling with people, making it easy to slip away unnoticed, but her outfit wasn't exactly made for a quick getaway. She needed a chance to change into something more practical.
Her gaze fell on Vivian, who glared at her over the rim of a wine glass. Vivian still harbored resentment over being forced to apologize that day. Serena had guessed half of it right. While Vivian was indeed bitter about having to apologize, what really irked her was that her mother refused to believe Aaron had made her do it. Vivian's complaints had fallen on deaf ears, leaving her frustrated. But with Serena at the party tonight, Vivian had prepared a little surprise for her.

She just figured out how to change her clothes. She withdrew to a quiet corner and pulled out her phone, sending a message to Samuel. "Samuel, is the car ready?" She had called Samuel earlier to arrange for a getaway car. Her plan was to slip out of the celebration unnoticed and leave Alderburg behind. Where she would go, she wasn't sure, but anywhere away from Alderburg meant freedom.
Samuel replied instantly: "It's ready." "Thank you, Samuel," Serena texted back.
It took Samuel a while to respond this time.
"Serena, the police are still watching now, you. If you leave now, they'll definitely catch you.
"They won't," Serena replied, sending him the information Rock had m discovered, "Oncelina gone, submit these documents to the police. They'll drop the surveillance."
Samuel was stunned. The IP address e of the informant was from Aaron's residence in Rosewood Gardens. So it was Aaron who reported her? On the other side of the chat, Serena didn't respond to Samuel's revelation.
