Serenity caught her breath. After a short silence, she stammered, "I don't…" As she parted her lips to speak, his finger touched her lips.Lucas pressed his finger against her lips, asking her to stop speaking with a pleading look in his eyes. "Please don't say it. Just today. Please don't say it, not in this dress."Serenity shuddered at his request and did not finish the rest of her sentence."Okay, let's go. It's hard for you to get a taxi here with you dressed like this," Lucas said."Thanks," Serenity whispered and headed toward the exit with Lucas.Serenity and Lucas approached the exit and noticed the security guards gathering not far away. They were talking about something, some communicating with walkie-talkies and talking nervously. It looked like something had happened.Lucas stepped forward with a frown. "What's going on?"A security guard replied, "S-Someone suddenly cleared out the area. Their men surrounded us."The expression on Lucas' face turned somber. The Go

Serenity could not explain her feelings, but she sensed danger from Jackson's gaze. Instinctively, she wanted to run away! She wanted to run far away, to a place out of his sight! While Serenity was drowning in fear, a hand gripped hers. "Scared?" The voice snapped her back to her senses. It was Lucas who was holding her hand. She thought their hands were trembling slightly, but no! Only her hands were shaking.'Am I afraid?' Serenity wondered if she was afraid of Jackson."Don't be afraid. I'll handle this," Lucas' voice rang in her ears.Serenity took a deep breath, and the trembling in her hands gradually stopped. She watched as Jackson strode steadily toward her. His eyes stayed on her the whole time, never leaving. The way he kept his gaze locked on her seemed to suggest that he was coming for her! 'No way!'Serenity thought she must be overthinking. Jackson did not have to put up such a show to find her. Besides, she had made it very clear with Jackson the last time. Ther

Jackson's actions drew sharp gasps from the people around them, but no one dared to step forward or intervene. After all, Jackson and Lucas were very powerful men in Solaria. They would be committing suicide by getting in their way."Yeah. So what?" Jackson said coldly.Serenity glared at Jackson and then carefully held Lucas' broken hand. "How are you? Does it hurt? Are you okay? Is there a doctor here?" Serenity asked, knowing that appropriate medical and first-aid provisions would usually be available for events like this."I'm fine. It's just a fracture," Lucas said. He had not experienced pain after a fracture for years. This acute pain was precisely how he realized what Serenity must have felt when all her fingers had been broken.How much pain would she have felt then? Lucas wondered if her pain was ten or a hundred times what he was going through now!Serenity's face was full of guilt. She knew Lucas had gotten into this mess because of her."It's not okay! We have to tre

Lucas watched as the car drove away, his handsome face colored with anxiety and fury.Did Jackson take this action to send a message that he could take anyone away at will?Meanwhile, inside the car, Serenity propped herself up in a state of disarray after she had gotten thrown into the back seat. "Jackson, what do you want?!"The man sitting beside her laughed coldly. "What do I want?" His head whipped around, pinning her with those dark yet beautiful eyes. Serenity trembled. When she saw the light in his eyes dance like ice and fire, she knew she was in serious danger. The next moment, Jackson suddenly leaned over, putting his hands on either side of her and trapping her in his arms.At the same time, a privacy divider suddenly rose between the back seat and front seat, separating the driver from the rear passenger compartment. The backseat that was larger than a normal car then turned into a separate space. There was a flash of panic in Serenity's eyes as Jackson moved over

Serenity was panting heavily when Jackson finally broke the kiss. Her hair was in a mess, her cheeks a warm red. Those bright eyes glared at him, no longer gentle and calm. Her eyes were filled with anger, but he was fascinated at how she finally had him in her eyes again.Jackson moved his hands, gently stroking her hair. He put his lips to her ear, and his voice echoed a graveled rasp, "Don't even think about falling in love with Lucas…"Yes. Jackson would never allow her to fall in love with Lucas. He wanted to be the only one she would love. Only him! His words sent a little shiver down her spine. "Who I fall in love with is my…" But before she could finish her words, his lips captured hers again, devouring her voice.***Jackson's outrageous actions had caused a huge commotion at the charity event. After all, he had caused a big scene outside.Lisa was dumbfounded when she learned about what had happened. Did Jackson clear out the area and confront Lucas? Jackson Valor?! Wh

Lynette tried her best to appear more concerned and worried about Lucas. "Lucas, why don't you go to the hospital to get your hand treated? Does it hurt? I'm so worried.""Have you ever thought of Serenity?" Lucas said abruptly."Huh?" Lynette choked, confused for a moment."Did you know? Serenity's hands were injured before, far worse than mine is now. Did you ever worry about her hand? You keep saying you're close with her, but did you ever visit her in prison?" Lucas asked, staring at the pretentious woman standing in front of him.When Lucas looked into Serenity's information, he naturally learned about Serenity's time in prison. Lisa was the only friend who often visited her. Serenity's grandmother could not come to Solaria for health reasons, but she had called several times. No one else cared about Serenity when she was in prison. When Lucas thought about Serenity's time in prison, isolated and betrayed by the people around her, he felt an inexplicable but aching pain in h

"Lucas," Lynette called out to him. "You shouldn't worry since Jackson took Serenity away. They were in a relationship. Even if they’ve broken up, they…"Realizing that Lucas was not listening, Lynette paused midway. She felt like a nobody to Lucas. All he could think about was Serenity!Lynette gritted her teeth, wondering what was so great about Serenity. Both men wanted Serenity, but she would never let Serenity steal her happiness!***Jackson and Serenity finally reached their destination. When Jackson led Serenity out of the car, Serenity realized he had taken her somewhere new.The large mansion nestled in the bamboo forest was a place Serenity had never been to before. The mansion looked a little old but offered a sense of tranquillity that would make one lose track of time."Jackson, what did you bring me here for?" Serenity panicked a little."To do what? To lock you up, of course," Jackson teased, pulling her toward the mansion.The mansion was timeless, decorated wi

Serenity trembled as she listened to his words. 'Is he really going to keep me here? Until I'm in love with him again?!'"Are you crazy? It's illegal to detain me here!" Serenity shouted, almost as if raising her voice was the only way to alleviate her fear."Am I crazy?" Jackson murmured, dropping kisses on her earlobe and slowly making his way to her cheeks and her brow. "Maybe I've been crazy for a long time."Jackson thought he must have gone crazy the moment he fell in love with her—she controlled all his emotions, including his joys and sorrows."You're the one who made me realize how strong jealousy could be, so strong I want to destroy the world…" Jackson whispered, his soft voice creating an ambiguous atmosphere in the dark room.As Jackson showered her with kisses, he pulled the gown away, ripping it apart. Serenity could not push Jackson away. She yelled, "No!" "I don't like you wearing clothes from another man," Jackson stated coldly. He hated it a lot, especially wh

“……” 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
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 3369
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
