My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 1203
Serenity quickly dialed Lisa's phone number only to hear the busy ringtone. Serenity tried to call several times in a row, but none of it got through. Unable to reach Lisa, Serenity felt a sense of uneasiness growing within herself. Lisa! Please be safe!Serenity tried to search the internet for more news about Terry's current whereabouts, but the earlier headline was the only news she found. Terry was just a businessman and not a star. He did not get much attention as the head of the White family, so the news of his whereabouts had not been trending.What was going on with Lisa? Why hadn't Lisa been answering her phone?! Serenity also tried texting and messaging Lisa. She did anything she could to get in touch, but there was no reply. Serenity hesitated before reaching out to Lisa's parents. She had their number saved in her phone, but she stopped contacting them after she had gotten involved in the accident and gone to prison. Lisa's parents hated her but for a reason. She was

Serenity arrived at the hospital and searched for Lisa's name at the nurse station. What she feared most had come true.Lisa was seriously injured and had just been pushed out of the emergency room. Lisa was still in critical condition and under observation in the ICU. Only after passing the critical period could she be transferred to the normal ward. Serenity felt that everything seemed darker, the color in her world turning gray. She approached the ICU ward and saw Lisa's parents standing by the glass wall, crying as they looked inside.It had been more than four years since Serenity had seen Lisa's parents. She never expected to see them again in a place like this. And Lisa… Lisa was… Serenity's legs trembled. She felt too much like a coward, afraid to see Lisa behind the glass wall. The thought of seeing Lisa in a critical condition was too much for her to bear!One step, two steps… Serenity moved slowly, crossing the very small distance that felt so far away. By the time s

After speaking to Mrs. Quest, Mr. Quest turned to Serenity and said, "Lisa's in critical condition, as you can see. Everything is a mess now. We're already in a very bad mood, and we'd rather you didn't show up. We know Lisa's condition has nothing to do with you, but we can't help but feel angry whenever we think about how much Lisa gave up for you.""I-I understand," Serenity choked out. She knew, so she had never complained about Lisa's parents. No parent would ever want to see their child sacrifice their bright future for just a friend.Just then, a nurse came over and handed Lisa's parents a bill. "Your previous deposit has been deducted. As the actual expenses have exceeded the deposit, there aren't enough funds available to cover the cost of your hospitalization. Please make a deposit top-up as soon as possible. Ms. Quest will need two more surgeries after this. The estimated cost of the surgeries and the next few days of hospitalization is about a few hundred thousand dollars
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 1206
Determined to raise the money, Serenity wanted Lisa to live and recover well, no matter what! She would have to borrow the money from somebody—someone who could afford this—Lucas was the first person who crossed her mind.A few hundred thousand dollars might be nothing to Lucas, but it would be life-saving for Lisa!Serenity pulled out her phone and dialed Lucas' number. There was no answer, so she had to grit her teeth and try to find a way to meet Lucas in person. Serenity went to Solaria General Hospital, but Lucas' ward was empty. Later, the nurse told her that Lucas had been discharged early that afternoon.Where else? Where else could she find Lucas? Serenity was trying to think. Would he be at the Gomez family's residence or his private residence?!Serenity remembered Lucas telling her about his private residence. He usually stayed there, and the address was… Serenity recalled seeing his home address leaked on the internet. Lucas was the prince of the entertainment industr

Serenity was still at the gate when a car drove by. Lynette got out of the car, surprised to see Serenity. She came over and asked, "Serenity? What are you doing here?" Taking a deep breath, Serenity explained to Lucas, "I want to see Lucas. I have a friend who's seriously injured. She's in the ICU now, and I'd like to ask Lucas for help. Would you… If you can, take me in to see Lucas, please?"Serenity knew that there was no way Lynette would agree because of their damaged relationship, but she had to try asking anyway, for Lisa's sake.Sure enough, as she expected, Lynette refused with a troubled look. "I can't. Well, you should know. Lucas and you parted on bad terms, and he's still angry. If I take you in, Lucas will get angry at me. I'm sorry, I can't help you with this."After that, Lynette went back to the car. The gate slowly opened, and the car drove in. Lynette leaned back in the car, a triumphant look on her face as she saw Serenity's pained look through the window. W

Lucas's eyes hooded as he stared at the phone that rang over and over again, his mind struggling as he resisted answering Serenity's call. Not knowing how to face her, he sat in the living room and let the phone ring without picking it up. Why was Serenity calling him nonstop? She seemed so anxious. Was she calling for Peter? Was she going to plead for Peter?Lynette had just come in not long ago and saw the caller ID when Lucas' phone rang."Hey, Lucas? Why don't you answer the phone? Serenity is calling you," Lynette asked, pretending to be confused. "Maybe she's calling because of Peter's matter. I met her at the gate earlier. She kept saying that she wanted to see you and that she had something to tell you. I didn't expect her to be so perseverant for Peter!" Lynette said, deliberately claiming that Serenity wanted to see him for Peter. Just as she expected, the look of struggle on his face faded. Lynette was overjoyed to see Lucas pick up the phone and turn it off."Lucas

"Keep driving." Lucas flatly ordered the driver. Then he leaned back, slowly closing his eyes.Yeah. How could he forget? Serenity was doing all of this for Peter's sake! Her sadness, fatigue, and persistence—they were all for Peter!When the driver heard the order, he rolled the window down and told the guards outside, "Take her away. Mr. Gomez doesn't want to see her." Serenity was shocked and shouted, "Lucas, I really have something urgent. I really need your help…" But the car window slowly rolled up, cutting off her voice. And the next moment, the security guards on the side pulled her away!Serenity watched as the car slowly drove away. Desperate, she used all her strength and pushed the guards away. She ran after the car, but no matter how she ran, she could not outpace the car. The distance between her and the car just kept growing.Lynette sat in the car and saw Serenity through the window. Seeing how Serenity tried to chase after the car desperately, she was secretly de

Jackson got out of the car as soon as the car stopped. He was surprised to see Serenity and stopped in his tracks, their gazes locking."I-I need your help," Serenity rasped through her cracked lips. She had a dry throat because she had not drunk any water since last night."Looking for me?" Jackson said coldly, a hint of sarcasm in his voice. "What are you doing here? Is your memory that bad? Why won't you take my words seriously? Didn't I tell you yesterday? Don't ever show up here again." Serenity dashed to Jackson, grabbing his arms tightly. "I know you don't want to see me again, but… I'm begging you, please! Please lend me 300,000 dollars! I'll pay you back—with interest! I really need it!""300,000 dollars?" Jackson arched a brow, surprised by Serenity's request. "What? It's just 300,000 dollars. Why won't Lucas give it to you? Why do you have to come to me and beg?" he said, mocking her.Pale-faced and wide-eyed, Serenity stood there speechless. Her lips trembled, and she

“……” 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
