My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 1039
Was it because he had too many ex-girlfriends so she thought he wasn't serious about her?He still remembered that she used to mock him for having so many substitutes. She said that if he really missed someone, no matter how many substitutes he found, it was pointless.Come to think of it, wasn't he reaping what he sowed now?There had never been a woman like her who was out of his reach, yet would always appear in his mind and linger there.Even though there were times when he wanted to forget her, he had never really been able to.He would even make an enemy out of Jackson Valor for her!While he was lost in thought, a sudden painful groan came from the treatment room. Lucas sprang to his feet, sprinted to the treatment room and pushed the door open!Mr. Smith was poking a needle into the back of Serenity's hand, and she... Lucas could not move his eyes away from her face.Serenity's eyes were tightly closed and her eyebrows were furrowed. She was biting her lower lip hard

She had no idea how much time had passed before she heard Mr. Smith say, "It's done!" The intense pain on the back of her hand started subsiding. Serenity took a deep breath and opened her eyes.The first thing she saw was Lucas' arm.She realized that she had been grabbing onto it this whole time. "Sorry!" she quickly let go."Don't worry about it. I asked you to grab it," Lucas said, pulling his hand back. "Come again next week at the same time," Mr. Smith told Serenity, "Remember, avoid getting your hand wet and lifting heavy objects for 3 hours." "Got it." Serenity replied. After leaving Mr. Smith's clinic, Lucas offered to drive Serenity home."I... I'll just take the bus," Serenity declined his offer and turned around to leave.Lucas stopped her. "I'm just giving you a ride home. I'm not asking you to promise me anything. You don't have to avoid me like this.""I don't want to trouble you," she pushed his hand away, which made him frown and let out a muffled groan

Serenity looked up, and their eyes met. His eyes were like the eyes of a phoenix – narrow and deep with slightly raised tails. When those eyes stared at someone intently, they're capable of stirring the target's heart.For some reason, Serenity's nose felt a bit stuffy; it could be because he was the "Luke" from her childhood, or it could be because he wanted to share her pain.Before this, she had always endured her pain alone. This time, someone was there with her. "Don't be too good to me, Lucas. I'm not worth it," she murmured. She knew she couldn't repay his kindness. "That's up to me to decide," he replied. "Even if it hurts, I believe it's worth it."She stared at him in a daze. There was an inexplicable sensation in her chest.After driving Serenity home, Lucas gazed at her back as she vanished from sight before lowering his head to inspect the band-aid on his right arm. "Serenity..." he whispered her name. Then, he pressed his lips tenderly on the band-aid.No woma

The executives waited anxiously as Jackson stared at his phone.After 10 minutes, Jackson finally put his phone down. He ordered the executives to continue the meeting. The executives proceeded with caution, carefully choosing their words and speaking softly to avoid irritating the CEO.Connor grimaced seeing his boss' scowl. He saw what was on Mr. Valor's phone just now, and that made him even more scared.Why did the two bodyguards send Mr. Valor pictures of Lucas Gomez and Serenity Lewis together? Didn't they know that it would make Mr. Valor really upset?Even if they had to send pictures, they should have sent normal ones.They just had to send photos of Lucas Gomez and Serenity Lewis standing very close together. In one of those photos, Serenity was even holding Lucas' arm and putting a band-aid on for him.The photos were taken beautifully, especially the one where Serenity and Lucas were staring into each other's eyes. It looked like a scene straight out of a movie!Co

Clara was busy working at the food stall when she saw Serenity arrive. She greeted Serenity warmly, asking, "What brings you here?" "I have no plans tonight, so I came to see how you're doing," Serenity replied, "Any troublemakers recently?" Clara's face fell slightly. Noticing that, Serenity asked, "There are more of them?""A few more. I already lodged a police report, and the police promised to patrol here in the next couple of days, but..."Before Clara had even finished, several rowdy individuals approached the food stall menacingly and harassed the customers until the customers left. They then spread out and sat down, one person to each table, until all the tables were occupied. Then, they ordered the cheapest item on the menu.Clara had only prepared four folding tables, so there were now no vacant tables left.When new customers came and asked to share a table, the thugs would scare them away with loud and unpleasant voices.Serenity scowled. "They do this every day?"

Lucas was surprised when Serenity visited him unprompted, as she usually kept her distance from him.He was even more surprised when he found out why. "You want to go to the charity event tonight?" Lucas asked. "Can I?" Serenity asked eagerly. "Of course," Lucas answered, "But you should at least let me know why you want to attend. Don't tell me it's because there's a celebrity you want to meet?" Since the charity event would have many famous celebrities in attendance, a lot of people wanted to get in to chase after their favorite stars.If that was her reason, Lucas could definitely help her.Anyone in the entertainment world had to show him some degree of respect. "I want to meet Wilson Birch and Sandra Cooper. I heard they're going to the event," Serenity replied. "Wilson Birch and Sandra Cooper?" Lucas seemed puzzled. "Yes, they'll be there, but why do you want to meet them?" "It's a personal matter involving a friend of mine," Serenity said vaguely."Okay, I'll m

"You rejected Lucas Gomez?" Sam asked in surprise.Serenity felt a little awkward, as Lucas was right there with them.Before she could respond, Sam resumed applying her makeup and remarked, "Impressive. This is the first time I've seen someone turn down Lucas' advances.""Why do you look so happy that I got rejected?" Lucas asked, giving Sam a sideway glance."It's because I've never seen it before, so it feels novel," said Sam. Although he was making small talk, his hands moved methodically without pause. By the time the car arrived at the venue entrance, Serenity's hair and makeup were done."I didn't prepare an evening gown for her. You said you'd take care of it," Sam said, looking over at Lucas.Lucas handed Serenity a bag with the gown and said, "Here's your gown. I believe it'll fit. We'll all get out of the car so that you can get changed." He asked everyone to get out of the car.Serenity opened the bag. When she saw the dress inside, her pupils shrunk.It was a pur

It felt as if he was scared that she would shatter if he hugged her too tightly. "I'm sorry, Serenity..." he whispered in her ear, "But can you let me hold you like this for a while longer?" he begged, with his voice choking back tears.He was the mighty Crown Prince of the entertainment industry, but now, he humbly begged her.Serenity's chest felt heavy. She remained still, nestled in Lucas' arms. He held her tenderly as if she were a cherished dream. She breathed in his scent as his heartbeat rang in her ears.She couldn't tell how long they stood there before he finally released her. "I'm sorry," Lucas apologized a second time, "I got too emotional. I confused you with... someone in my imagination.""It's okay," Serenity replied softly, aware of who he was referring to. "But it won't happen again." He gazed intently into her eyes, his voice resolute, "From now on, I won't mistake you for anyone else. You're you. You're unique. You're Serenity Lewis, the only person in t

“……” 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!

"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
