Susie was later taken away by the bailiff. She had no choice but to consider herself unlucky! Serenity was a little stunned by Susie's reply. Did Susie's confession have something to do with Lucas?Mr. Graham, on the other hand, had a thoughtful look on his face.When Serenity and Mr. Graham reached the entrance, they saw a Maserati parked in front of the courthouse. Lucas soon emerged from the car, looking at Serenity.Mr. Graham gently patted Serenity's shoulder and said, "Thank Mr. Gomez for me. This case wouldn't have been so easy if not for him."Mr. Graham walked away without waiting for Serenity to reply. He walked down the steps and left after greeting Lucas.Serenity remained on the steps, looking down at Lucas in a daze. Meanwhile, Lucas looked up at Serenity with his chin slightly raised.Some of the people coming out of the courthouse seemed to have noticed the scene, turning their eyes toward them.Taking a deep breath, Serenity walked down the steps. Although he

"It's fine. It's an old problem. Jackson already took me to a specialist doctor," Serenity said, withdrawing her hand. The last time she had visited the specialist doctor, the doctor had told her that she had missed the best period for treatment. The medicines she had taken later were only to relieve the pain she had been experiencing due to the cold and humid weather."We're already here. Why don't you let Mr. Smith take a look? He doesn't usually take in new patients," Lucas said, dragging Serenity into the clinic.Serenity saw no patients inside and found the clinic a little empty. A white-bearded man was sitting on a chair and watching the TV. The 32-inch TV on the wall was playing the most popular drama of the season. Serenity had heard about the show at her office. Her colleagues had said that it was a tear-jerking show.The elderly man was watching the TV show with great concentration, his expression so serious. It was as if he was watching a documentary program."Mr. Smit

It seemed Mr. Smith was indeed as capable as Lucas had mentioned!Serenity's answer hit Lucas like a shocking wave in his heart. What kind of pain had she suffered?! She had had her fingernails pulled out and her fingers broken… Who had done this to her?! Lucas felt the urge to kill at the thought of that!Mr. Smith examined Serenity's fingers with a grave expression on his face. After a long silence, he said, "Come. Get an X-ray. I need to see the X-ray of your fingers."Mr. Smith then led Serenity into an isolation room, which was completely out of place in this small clinic. After taking the X-ray, Mr. Smith studied the film carefully. He thought for a long time and said to Serenity, "Your fingers weren't properly treated after the injury. You've missed the golden period for treatment.""I know," Serenity said. When Jackson had sent her to the specialist doctor, the doctor there had said the same thing."Your fingers must hurt in cold and humid weather. You may be struggling wi

"No need to thank me. All I did was bring you here. Mr. Smith said it can be treated, so it should be fine," Lucas said.Lucas casually asked as he drove, "When did you injure your hand?""It’s been almost four years," Serenity answered.'Almost four years…' Lucas thought about it and realized that that would be when Serenity had been in prison. "You got injured in prison?"Serenity remained silent and said nothing, but the look on her face had given him the answer."Who was it? Who hurt you so?" There was a hint of anger in Lucas' voice as he wondered who in the world would treat Serenity so cruelly. Lucas knew Serenity had been in prison but never thought much about what she had gone through during her time in prison. He had just only realized how much she had suffered.Serenity said nonchalantly, "It doesn't matter anymore.""Who did this?" Lucas asked again."Even if I tell you, what's the point? Can I put them through all the pain I've gone through?""Why not?" Lucas said

Serenity had had the pizza here before, but she had not remembered the young Lucas and the promise they had made as children at that time.Serenity picked up a slice of pizza and started eating. She decided to treat it as a day of eating out with Luke. Just like they promised. The promise where the young Lucas had said that he would treat the young Serenity to something delicious in Solaria.***At night, the Maserati drove slowly and parked next to the neighborhood. Serenity left the car upon reaching the destination, but Lucas came running after her from behind."Wait!" Serenity heard Lucas calling for her and stopped. Lucas caught up with her and handed a pizza box to her. "Take this. I saw that you liked it, so I ordered another pizza at the restaurant for takeaway.""Thanks," Serenity looked at him, her lips pursed as she accepted the food. Maybe it was the pizza that she could not refuse. Or maybe she just could not reject the young Luke she knew, particularly when he had fu

Serenity had been coming home alone lately, which was fine. On this day, however, Mr. Gomez was the one who had sent her back. The two were staring at each other, and the way he was holding his hand… They looked like a couple!Connor hoped Lucas and Serenity would quickly separate. God knows what Mr. Valor would do if they stayed like that!***Serenity walked home with a box of pizza in her hand. She took the key out of her bag and unlocked the door. Just as she was about to get the door and walk in, another hand pushed the door open one step ahead of her.Startled, Serenity turned around to find Jackson standing behind her. "When did you come?" Serenity asked in surprise.Jackson was wearing a thin and light-colored sweater and black trousers. He looked like a charming prince with that handsome face of his, but his grim face and the strange look in his eyes… There was a hint of struggle, displeasure, as well as… menace.Serenity instinctively felt danger. Jackson seemed very

He held her hand under the faucet and scrubbed her hands with soap before rinsing them with water again and again, almost as if he was desperate to completely wash away all traces of Lucas's touch, scent, and warmth… from her hands.Serenity tried hard to pull her hands away but to no avail. She had no idea how long Jackson kept scrubbing her hands until they started to sting, and she told him, "That's enough, Jackson! What exactly are you trying to do?!"Only then did he turn off the tap. He picked up a hand towel nearby and gently wiped her hands dry, saying, "Don't ever let Lucas touch your hands again."When he thought of what had happened at the entrance of the apartment complex, he was so tortured by the jealousy that rose up inside him that it was almost unbearable.He was so afraid… so afraid that she would really fall in love with Lucas Gomez!"Also," he added, "don't ever say anything that will anger me again."Serenity was momentarily taken aback, but she then smiled w

Serenity stared at the man in front of her. What could he possibly mean when he said that?!"If you say that you won't love me anymore because we’ve already broken up," he continued, "then what if… we start dating again, just like we did before?"All his life, he had never changed his mind about any decision that he had made, but this time, he was willing to walk back on his decision to make a clean break with Serenity, an act that was as humiliating as slapping his own face, and he was willing to do all this because of her alone! All because he simply could not endure the thought that she would not love him anymore, that she would one day truly forget him!But that only made Serenity burst out in laughter. She laughed so hard that even her nose turned red and tears streamed down her face. Back then, Jackson had so nonchalantly told her he wanted to break up with her on her birthday, and it felt as if she had been dragged down from heaven to the depths of hell, yet now, he was telli

“……” Morgan suddenly found himself unable to retort. She... wasn't wrong. “But when you play house, you can pretend to be parents with one person today and another person tomorrow. Real marriage is different; you can’t choose someone else.”Renee widened her eyes, listening intently.“The only person you can choose is me. Do you understand, Renee?” he continued.She nodded vigorously. “I understand!”“Do you really?” Morgan asked, a little skeptical. He was already fifteen, so he could grasp the concept of marriage, but she was only eight. Could she truly comprehend it?“So, in the future, I can only marry Morgan and be your bride, right? I can't be someone else's bride, right?” she asked. “I don’t want to marry other boys anyway. I like you the most, Morgan. Of course I’ll only be your bride!” she happily declared, her worries fading away.So she could be Morgan's bride when she grew up! That's great!After finishing another piece of snack, Renee thought of something. She put o

Despite her unease, she couldn’t resist when she saw the sweet desserts. She indulged herself.However, as she ate, her eyes remained fixed on Morgan, clearly still waiting for him to clarify Lucy’s claims.“You want to know if you’re a child bride, right?” Morgan began.Renee nodded.“Do you know what a child bride is?” he asked.She blinked. She had a vague idea, but not enough for her to articulate it.“To put it simply, a child bride is a girl raised by a boy's family. The girl will marry the boy when she comes of age. In the old days, some families were too poor to raise their daughters, so they would sell their daughters to become child brides for richer families,” Morgan explained.Renee blinked. “But my parents aren’t poor, and I'm raised by them, not by other people. That means I’m not a child bride, right?”“Correct, you are not,” Morgan affirmed.She breathed a sigh of relief, and a bright smile spread across her face. “I knew it! My parents would never sell me! The

"Morgan!" Renee turned to Morgan, unease etched on her face."The Moon family, eh? I'll remember this," Morgan replied calmly, then lowered his head to meet Renee's anxious and confused face. "Let's go, Renee. I’ll tell you what you want to know later."He led her away holding her hand.Benson looked worried. "Miss Lucy, how could you say that?""It's the truth!" Lucy shook off her fear and spoke defiantly. "Daddy and Mommy said she’s a child bride. A child bride is a girl sold by her own parents!""But the White family is not like that. Those things only happened to daughters of poor families in the old days," Benson explained. "You really shouldn’t have said that, Miss Lucy. You shouldn’t do that again.""Why do I have to listen to you?" Lucy retorted, displeased.Benson was too ashamed to tell Lucy in front of others that the Moon family simply couldn’t afford to offend Morgan. Dealing with the White family was already a headache, and Morgan's background was even more formi

Benson and Lucy were also dumbfounded. Benson started getting anxious. He felt like things were starting to unfold in ways that he did not expect."Mr. Grimes, I..." Benson stepped forward, intending to speak to Mr. Grimes.However, Mr. Grimes moved past Benson without so much as a glance at him. He went up to Morgan and said, "Master Morgan, I apologize for the oversight!"Everyone was stunned to hear that, including the security guards who had been called over. They were secretly relieved they hadn't forcibly removed anyone yet. If they had offended someone Mr. Grimes was showing so much respect to, it would have been really bad for them!Morgan regarded Mr. Grimes with an unreadable expression. He calmly recounted the situation to Mr. Grimes.After hearing about what happened, Mr. Grimes responded, "This set of stamps was not pre-ordered. If you like it, please take it. Feel free to take anything else in the exhibition that catches your eye."This declaration shocked every

"Who are you?!" Benson exclaimed, astonished. The mysterious figure remained silent, simply looking at Morgan.Morgan calmly reiterated to Benson, "I said, wait for Mr. Grimes." He then pulled out his phone and dialed a number. "I'm Morgan Wood. Please have Mr. Grimes from Lazy Cat Culture come to the Sleepy Cat Exhibition in Solaria. He should be in the area, right?"After ending the call, the person on the other end stared at the phone in disbelief.The Sleepy Cat Exhibition? What's going on?Benson, Lucy, and the staff stared at Morgan in shock, but the look in their eyes quickly turned to ridicule."Ah, a young man's naive bravado – how impudent!" Benson scoffed."Sir, please don't cause trouble," the staff member warned. "Or I'll have to call security."Morgan simply lowered his head to say to Renee, "Looks like we'll be here for a while. If you're bored, I can ask someone to walk around with you."Renee shook her head. "Morgan, what if this stamp set has really been p

Benson's words were not only meant to exert pressure on the staff, but also to inform him that they were on the same side.As expected, when the staff heard what he said, there was an instant change in his expression. He turned to Morgan and Renee and said, "I'm sorry, but it turns out this stamp set has already been pre-ordered by this customer."Morgan saw through the so-called pre-order as nothing more than an act. "When I asked you to wrap it up earlier, I didn’t hear you mention it was pre-ordered.""We forgot to mention that. Our apologies," the staff replied.Lucy, wearing a smug expression, raised her chin at Renee, causing Renee to puff out her cheeks in frustration.Benson calmly observed Morgan and Renee. The White family's White Maple Group had numerous overlapping businesses with the Moon Group. They were often competing with each other. Originally, the White Maple Group’s business activities weren't concentrated in Solaria, so even though there was competition wi

But before Morgan had even finished speaking, a girl's voice piped up, "I want this stamp set!"He turned to the voice and, upon seeing who it was, narrowed his eyes slightly. It was Lucy Moon, the girl Renee mentioned earlier. At the sight of Lucy, Renee immediately reacted like an angry little kitten. "Lucy Moon, why do you always try to take my stuff away?""Your stuff? How is this your stuff? You haven't paid yet!" Lucy shot back, her eyes fixed on Morgan.Morgan was well-known in their class, admired by many girls who claimed he was even more handsome than movie stars. If only Lucy had a big brother like that! She would be the envy of all the girls in class... no, all the girls in school!Unfortunately, her own big brother was not as good-looking.Last time, Lucy had tried to give Renee Sleepy Cat toys, asking for Morgan's email address in return. However, Renee accepted gifts from everyone but her, which infuriated Lucy."But if you want, I can give this stamp set to Re

Unlike many wealthy kids, Renee was quite restrained with her spending. She had never spent recklessly and often saved leftover money. Of course, when she wanted something beyond her budget, she would act cute and ask her Daddy or Morgan to buy it for her.Lisa was the least susceptible to her charms, so Renee didn’t dare to bother her!When they arrived at the exhibition, Renee’s eyes sparkled with excitement. There were so many adorable Sleepy Cat merchandise! They're all so cute! She wanted a lot of them, but realizing her limited budget, she knew she needed a sponsor! The best one was right beside her: Morgan!"Morgan," she said, flashing him a super bright smile.Seeing her like this, Morgan immediately knew she wanted to ask him for something. "What is it? Do you want me to buy you Sleepy Cat merchandise?""You’re so smart, Morgan! No wonder so many girls in our class like you and asked me for your phone number!" Renee praised him.As soon as she mentioned it, Morgan'

"Okay," Renee replied obediently, snuggling up to Morgan and acting cute. "Take me to the exhibition, Morgan! I know you’re the best. You’ll definitely take me, right?"Morgan pursed his lips. At 15, he was no longer a little boy. Although Renee was only 8, she was his destined wife.He had been protecting her since the day she was born. At first, he thought that he would only marry her because according to the family prophecy, she was the one most suitable for him. Over the years, however, he realized that his feelings for her ran deeper than he had initially thought.He found himself wanting to help her fulfill her wishes, and would clean up the mess when she caused trouble. Things had become different from what he had expected, but he welcomed them. He felt grateful that she was the one who was destined for him!With her by his side for the rest of his life, he would never feel lonely."Will you get into fights again?" Morgan asked."No more fighting, I promise!" Renee quickly
