My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 1243
"Caleb..." Lucas seemed to be crying and laughing at the same time, like a child with a broken heart, "What should I do? I missed out... I missed out on her... Am I going to lose her forever? I'm only a few days late, only a few days... Why didn't I believe her? Why didn't I get down from the car and listen to what she had to say? Why? I was her only hope when she was desperate, but I pushed her away..."Lucas screamed, roared and cried over and over again... Caleb had never seen Lucas behave like this. All he could do was to stay by Lucas' side and console him as best he could.After having dinner in the Valor Residence, Serenity took a shower, put on the pajamas Jackson prepared for her, and went to Jackson's bedroom.Her personal belongings and clothes had already been moved into this room.This room was not unfamiliar to her, but she had never slept in it before. The room's decoration and furniture had a grayish tone, which gave off a cold vibe, but today, there were some red

"Why are you crying?" Jackson walked up to her with a slight frown.Serenity sniffled and said, "Just now... Lisa's parents called to inform me that Lisa has been transferred to the new hospital. Thank you," she sincerely thanked him.Jackson said casually, "It's part of the deal. I promised you, so of course I would do it. There's no need to thank me. You married me so that I would help Lisa Quest after all."He dried his wet hair with a bath towel while he spoke.She took a deep breath, walked forward, and said, "Let me... do it for you." In the past, after he washed his hair, he would always ask her to help him wipe it dry.His body tensed up. He raised his head to look at her, his jet-black eyes looking deep behind the wet locks that dropped down his forehead. "Are you trying to please me?""You're free to think that," Serenity said, "Even though we only got married because of Lisa, I don't want our marriage to become a catastrophe. After all, if you don't divorce me, then we

Considering the financial power of the Valor family, even if the babies were born prematurely, they would surely receive the best medical care possible, which would greatly enhance their chances of survival."But what would happen to you? Have you ever thought about that?" He couldn't help raising his voice."If we have to take a risk anyway, I'd rather take that risk together with my babies. I'm their mother. I can't let them take all the risk while I remain safe and sound."He tensed up at the word "mother."His own mother left him behind and walked away when he was gravely injured.But Serenity was willing to take a huge risk for the sake of her children.Her mother and Serenity were completely different people... Serenity would surely be a good mother. Their children would not experience what he did."Jack, I really want to keep all three babies.""You can say that I'm being too impractical, too emotional or too irrational, but... you don't understand how crushed I was when

For a time, she was able to sleep with the lights off.It was only after breaking up with him that she once again had to have the lights on in order to fall asleep!Serenity was counting sheep with her eyes closed, hoping to fall asleep quickly.But for some reason, she couldn't.There was another person lying next to her. Even with her eyes closed, she could smell his scent, and... if she just moved a tiny bit, she would come into contact with his body.The bed was large, but somehow, she would easily make contact with his body.She counted to a thousand and still couldn't fall asleep, so she opened her eyes again.She was lying on her side, so the moment she opened her eyes, a handsome face came into view.His eyes were closed, and his long eyelashes formed shadows on his eyelids, as if they were fans.His high nasal bridge, sharp jawline, and sexy thin lips were very pleasing to the eye.When he's asleep like this, he did not give off an oppressive aura like he would when
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 1247
She closed her eyes and tried to calm herself.This time, she fell asleep very quickly.Jackson slowly opened his eyes to look at the woman lying next to him. Her steady breathing let him know that she had fallen asleep.She had no idea how much willpower it took to stop her from touching him just now.He was afraid that once she touched his chest, he would no longer be able to suppress his desire!As expected, the doctors' risk assessment report recommended a multifetal pregnancy reduction surgery. After all, it was objectively the most prudent option.However, the assessment report did not say that it was the only option. The doctors had also come up with an alternative plan that would enable all three babies to be born, but the risk was much higher. Also, it would cause some damage to Serenity's body."If you insist on giving birth to all three babies, it would be very dangerous for your uterus. Your uterus may experience massive blood loss during labor. If we can't stop the

From last night to this morning, she had repeatedly expressed her desire to not undergo the surgery.But if something were to happen to her, he...There was a complicated look in Jackson's eyes as he asked, "Are you sure?""I'm very sure," Serenity said."You won't regret it no matter what?" he asked.She answered, "I'll never regret it!"Jackson pursed his lips. After a moment, he turned to the group of specialists and asked, "If she doesn't undergo the surgery and insists on giving birth to all three babies, what are the odds of keeping all of them safe, including the mother?""50%," the specialists gave him an estimate.Jackson's lips pursed even tighter. That's not even a passing grade in his opinion.He never wanted to do anything he wasn't sure about, but now... "We'll proceed with the plan of keeping all three babies for now. But if the situation becomes dangerous... prioritize the mother's safety!""But..." Serenity wanted to protest, but Jackson interrupted her."Se

From the car, Jackson watched Serenity walk into the hospital.She had no idea that she wasn't just gambling with her life this time, she was gambling with his life too.If she lived, he would live as well.But if anything happened to her, he would not live alone. If she wanted to gamble, he would gamble with her – with his life!Lisa's ward was an ICU ward, but it was a relatively private ICU ward. There was even a room next door for family members to sleep in.The environment and conditions here were quite a bit better than that in the previous hospital.Upon seeing Serenity, Lisa's father and mother thanked her profusely."Auntie and Uncle, there's no need for this. Lisa sacrificed so much for me. This is the least I could do for her," Serenity said. She was more concerned about her friend's condition. "What did the doctors say? Did they say when Lisa would be out of critical condition?""They didn't say, so it might take some time. But they did say that they would bring th

"Gown?" Serenity was confused."Yes, it's a maid-of-honor dress," the other party said, "Miss Lisa Quest has already paid in full, so you just need to come over to pick it up. Miss Lisa Quest actually left us her phone number too, but we can't reach her.""She's... hospitalized. I'll come over to pick it up now," Serenity said. She hung up after getting the address.A maid-of-honor dress...? Lisa did mention that she had custom-made a maid-of-honor dress for Serenity, and that she would give Serenity a surprise. Lisa seemed so happy when she told Serenity that.Serenity found the boutique according to the address. It was a rather high-end boutique for customized clothing. All the clothes inside were rather pricey. Lisa probably spent a lot of money on the maid-of-honor dress.Serenity walked into the boutique and told the clerk who greeted her, "I'm Serenity Lewis. Someone from your store notified me to come pick up a dress earlier.""No problem. Please wait for a moment," the cl

“……” 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! The

"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
