Jackson, who was not far away from them, stopped in his tracks and turned in their direction when he heard the name "Serenity".Connor had also heard the cry. He looked over, then looked at his boss.Jackson merely stared at Serenity, who had fallen to the ground, indifferently. His handsome face showed no emotion."Let's go," he said casually before heading for the path down the mountain.The spot where Serenity fell was close to the steps to go down the mountain, so Jackson would have to walk past her to leave the temple.The earlier crowd had all gone into the hall, so the outside was now quiet.Serenity looked up when she heard footsteps approaching.She saw a figure moving towards her.It was Jackson.She looked at him blankly.Unlike the short glimpse she caught of him when he came out of the hall earlier, she could now get a better look at him as he gradually approached her, step by step.His face was still as beautiful and as cold as ever. However, his current expres

If the deity truly was merciful, may he grant her mercy so she could move on from this relationship and regain inner peace!She now realized that, sometimes, being able to not love someone was also a kind of blessing.In a car at the bottom of the mountain, Jackson leaned back against the backseat and closed his eyes to take a rest.From the front seat, Connor glanced anxiously at his boss through the rearview mirror.Although Mr. Valor definitely saw Serenity Lewis earlier, he showed no reaction. He seemed to not care about her anymore.At least, that's how it seemed like on the outside.Connor was doubtful though. After all, he witnessed their whole relationship, from the beginning until the end.Connor knew how important Serenity Lewis was to Mr. Valor. He would give his life up for her if that's what she wanted.He loved her so much. Could he really move on this quickly?In Connor's opinion, the more indifferent Mr. Valor appeared, the more he still cared about her inside.

Serenity simply smirked at Lynette. She didn't believe Lynette at all. She was at least 90% certain that the incident was Lynette's doing.She wondered what the result of the police investigation was.Lucas walked over too. He said, "Like you, I also came after receiving a call from the police. Once we find out who drugged that man and locked the lounge, I'll make them pay!"Serenity looked him in the eye. Was he telling her that because he knew she suspected Lynette? He wanted her to know that even if the culprit was Lynette, he would still make her pay?When Lynette heard Lucas say that, she trembled, and a hint of envy flashed across her eyes.Lucas cared so much about Serenity that he couldn't stand to see her upset. But nothing happened to her though. She only got some minor bruises on her arms."Please come inside. We have something to tell you guys," said a police officer.Jonas Zeller's parents were also in the room. After all, technically speaking, Jonas Zeller was a vi

Lynette felt relieved. At 4:12 pm, she was putting on her makeup! There were many eyewitnesses!"Who moved the camera?" Lucas asked."We'll have to investigate further. We'll ask around to see if anybody saw anyone moving the camera. We'll also reach out to those near the lounge to see if they noticed anything. Unfortunately, this might take some time," the police officer said, then moved onto the topic of Jonas Zeller.According to Jonas' statement, he went to see Lynette on the day of the incident, and Lynette told him to wait in the lounge.About 10 minutes later, Jonas started experiencing discomfort, and after that, he couldn't remember anything else.The hospital's examination showed that Jonas was indeed drugged with an aphrodisiac. Unfortunately, the drug could easily be found online, making it difficult to trace the source.The police said they would keep investigating, but with the clues they had now, it may be hard to get a result that quickly.Lynette was immensely r

"Almost missed the bus," a soft voice said behind Serenity.She turned around and was taken aback to find Lucas standing behind her. "Why did you board the bus?" she asked."I still wanted to take you home. Since you declined my offer to give you a ride, I decided to keep you company on the bus instead," he explained.Serenity never expected that Lucas would take the bus with her.The driver said, "Please buy a ticket."Lucas rummaged around in his pockets and found a hundred-dollar bill. It was the only "loose change" he had."Wait!" Serenity quickly stopped Lucas from putting the note into the ticket machine. "You're gonna buy a ticket with a hundred-dollar bill?"Lucas shrugged, "It's all I have."Serenity pursed her lips, then said, "Never mind, I'll pay for you. Put your money away." She swiped her monthly pass one more time, then walked to the middle section of the bus.It wasn't rush hour, but although the bus wasn't packed, all the seats were taken.Serenity found a g

He must follow his heart!Serenity did not know what to say. They both fell into a tense silence.At that moment, a passenger got up from her seat to get off the bus, leaving the seat next to Serenity empty."Aren't you gonna sit down? Or do you prefer to stand with me?" Lucas asked.Serenity pursed her lips and sat down. At least, if she's sitting down and he's standing up, there would be more distance between them, and the atmosphere wouldn't be so awkward.Oh, how wrong she was.Lucas came closer and held onto the handle on her seat, one hand on each side of her. He was tall, so he had to bend down slightly, making it seem like he had completely enclosed her in his arms.Serenity blushed and looked down, trying to ignore Lucas.However, they were still ten stops away from her apartment, so the ride could take more than 40 minutes.Therefore, Serenity closed her eyes and feigned sleep.Lucas peered at the woman in the chair. He observed her black hair, her willow eyebrows,

"Are you awake?" She heard Lucas ask.Serenity looked up and blushed a little. She responded vaguely before quickly exiting the bus.Lucas followed her off the bus.Along the way back to her apartment, no matter how slow or fast she walked, Lucas would keep pace with her and stay next to her."Okay, I'll head back now," he said when they arrived, obviously having no intention of going in. Before leaving, he remembered something, so he turned around and said, "By the way, even if the police can't find anything, I'll keep investigating. I don't care who the culprit actually wanted to harm, I'll find them and make sure they pay for their crime."Serenity asked Lucas, "You believe what Lynette said? That she was the intended victim and I got dragged into it by accident?" Lucas replied, "No, I'm not taking her word for it. I'll find out what really happened." Serenity then asked, "If you discover that Lynette really is the culprit, will you turn her over to the police and let the l

Lucas bought this condo for her.Before this, she thought Lucas was treating her very well. He would buy her whatever she wanted.However, after seeing how he treated Serenity, she finally realized that, when a man genuinely cared about a woman, he would do more than just shower her with material possessions. He would show her a tenderness that he would not show anyone else.Lucas obviously cared about Serenity!How could Serenity take Lucas away from her?!Lynette didn't know why Serenity chose to remain silent after regaining her memory, but since that was Serenity's decision, she shouldn't get so intimate with Lucas! She shouldn't let Lucas fall in love with her!The elevator stopped on Lynette's floor. She unlocked the door and walked in. Before she could close the door, a person rushed into her house.The person then slammed the door shut.Lynette was about to scream, but the person's words quickly silenced her."You don't remember me anymore, Ms. Blossom? I moved the sur

“……” 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
