My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 1112
It turned out that everything could change in an instant, just like when they had broken up. Only that time, Jackson was the one who had wanted to break up, but this time, it was Serenity who wanted to leave."Jackson. I should really forget you this time," Serenity murmured.***The next day, Lisa planned to meet Serenity at her place as soon as she got off work. When Lisa talked to her on the phone yesterday, Serenity said she was fine. Even so, Lisa was still a little worried about Serenity.When Lisa arrived at the parking lot and was about to pick up her car, a woman stood before her, stopping her from leaving. "You must be Lisa," the woman said, looking at Lisa with an arrogant face. She wore a brand-new luxury coat from the latest fall collection and exquisite makeup on her face. "Who are you?" Lisa asked, surprised."I'm Janet Hart, the person Terry wants to marry," Janet introduced herself, her eyes filled with disdain. "I heard you've been dating Terry for some time,

Lisa blinked her eyes. Then, she took out her phone and searched for Pacific Property online.Janet was frustrated by Lisa's reaction. Actions spoke louder than words. Was Lisa telling her that she had never heard of Pacific Property?Janet felt embarrassed. She thought Lisa would be intimidated when she told her about Pacific Property, but Lisa was searching for the company online instead. After reading about Pacific Property online, Lisa smiled and said, "Okay. I know who you are now. But you said the White family had chosen you as a marriage candidate for Terry. Which means you're not engaged yet, are you? Besides, it's the White family who had chosen you, not Terry. So you have nothing to do with him now."Lisa trusted Terry. She did not think he would marry someone like Janet. 'Maybe that's the power of love!' Lisa thought to herself.Janet gritted her teeth and glared at Lisa bitterly. Lisa was right. The arranged marriage was a negotiation between the Hart family and a mem
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 1114
Lisa was right about Janet. Janet had never intended to pay Lisa a single dollar. Her goal was just to make Terry get rid of Lisa. However, she never expected Lisa to be so sharp and guess her intentions.Lisa heard her phone ring. She drew her phone out to see Terry's caller ID and answered it. "Where are you?" A gentle voice asked through the phone. "Negotiating with the young lady from Pacific Property, the marriage candidate your family has chosen for you," Lisa snickered."Negotiating?" Terry got nervous. "That woman came to see you? Did she do anything to you?!""She planned to give me nothing. She offered to pay me to leave you, but she didn't plan to pay at all," Lisa complained.Janet heard what Lisa had said, her face distorting into a scowl. She finally realized that Lisa simply did not play by the rules. She would make a bigger fool of herself if she stayed any longer.Janet rose to her feet, furious. She gave Lisa a "you're going to regret this" look and left the

"Did Jackson keep you there and… He didn't do anything? Did he hurt you?" Lisa asked cautiously."He didn't," Serenity reassured her."He's still a gentleman." Letting out a sigh of relief, Lisa thought of something else and added, "Right. You said you have nothing to do with Jackson anymore. What's going on? The two of you…""Like I said, we're parting ways. Even the sibling game is already over. We're just strangers now," Serenity said calmly, but her calmness made Lisa feel a little worried.Lisa did not like Jackson because of how he had hurt Serenity, but… She felt a little regretful at the thought of Jackson and Serenity parting ways, becoming strangers.Lisa had originally thought that maybe there was still a chance for Jackson and Serenity to reconcile."Jackson isn't the only man in the world. You'll meet a better person someday," Lisa said, cheering for her friend.Serenity had a small smile and accepted Lisa's kind words. She knew Lisa was just worried about her futur

Serenity planned to keep hiding the truth from Lucas. Even if Lisa wanted to tell the truth, she had no way to do so!Serenity grunted at Lisa's comment about Lynette.While they were chatting, Lisa's notification alert rang. Lisa glanced down at her phone and saw a new message from Terry. He was asking her when she was going to his place.Serenity accidentally glanced at the message and said, "Hey, Terry is waiting for you. You should go to his place first. We can meet another time.""Alright. If anything happens, remember to call me. Don't keep it all to yourself," Lisa urged, worried about Serenity."Okay. I know." Serenity smiled. She could finally relax and be herself with Lisa around, knowing that Lisa would be there for her no matter what.Lisa left Serenity's place with an unexpectedly heavy heart, wondering whether it was good or bad for Serenity to stay like this. Serenity had broken up with Jackson, but then Lucas had come. Unfortunately, Serenity did not love Lucas an

Terry smiled faintly and replied, "Talk? Do you really think that would ever happen? She'd be the happiest person in the White family to see me dead!"Lisa realized the truth of what Terry had said when she thought about it. Terry had managed to take full control of the White family despite being an illegitimate child. It was only natural that his father's lawful wife and legitimate children would be furious about that."I'm sure they're the reason why you met Janet Hart today," Terry continued. "They want to take advantage of the marriage between the White family and the Hart family to gain the Hart family’s favor and regain their control over the White family."Lisa blinked in confusion and asked, "But if they wanted to gain the Hart family's favor, shouldn't they want Janet Hart to… marry one of your half-brothers instead?""That's because Janet Hart is nothing but a pawn.""A pawn?" asked Lisa, puzzled. "Isn't she the Hart family's eldest daughter?""She is," replied Terry, "

She rolled her eyes at him and replied, "What do you think? Maybe I should just bite you so you'll understand what it felt like.""Okay," he said. "If that's what you want, then go ahead and bite me."Lisa's eyes widened. Now that he dared her to do it, she… She suddenly did not have the heart to bite him! She stared at the almost flawless face in front of her. He looked slightly androgynous, but not overtly feminine. Staring at him at such a close distance made all his facial features become so clear that she could even count his eyelashes. It was such a… stunning sight!Unable to hold it in any longer, Lisa pounced on Terry and gave him a deep, passionate kiss. What else could she do when she just could not bite him?Terry's body trembled. His lips only parted slightly when he asked her hoarsely, "Aren't you going to bite me?""It's your fault for being so handsome! I just don't have the heart to do it!"Lisa then almost climbed on top of his body and kept on kissing him agai

"I…" Lisa stammered. "I agree that we should get married, but… don't you think it's a little too early?"She could not wrap her head around it when she considered how she might turn from an unmarried woman into a… married woman in just three months. The pace was too dizzyingly fast for her!"Too early?" he muttered, his eyes getting darker. "I think it might be too slow. Do you know that I thought about making you my wife one day the first night we spent together all those years ago?"He had never been a thoughtless person about any aspect of his life. If he had not planned to be with this woman for the rest of his life, he would never have let her do whatever she wanted with him or had sex with her. That was precisely why, in his view, asking her to marry him in three months was simply too slow, and not too early! He should never have waited till today in the first place!Lisa was so flustered that her face turned red as a tomato. She stared at him blankly for a while before f

“……” 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
