"No one in Solaria can hurt her. Anyone who tries to hurt her will be my enemy. You'll know what it means to be my enemy." Jackson looked at Jenny, his eyes ice-cold. After saying that, he turned to Serenity. "Let's get back to the room. The food is getting cold.""Yeah," Serenity responded. "Oh, by the way, I just called the police. Some of them just slandered and insulted me. The police should be here soon." She added this in as if she had just remembered it."Eva will stay here and deal with it," Jackson said, referring to the female bodyguard guarding Serenity. Serenity nodded and turned around to leave.Zeke finally got up from the ground in disarray. He stared at Serenity and Jackson with a look of distaste on his face.It was a real slap in the face when he realized that the woman he had ditched before had found a better man and married him. Zeke could not afford to be angry—Jackson was more powerful than him—he could only endure the shame. Jenny, on the other hand, was
Zeke later shared the news of Serenity's marriage to his family in the living room."What?! Serenity is married? To Jackson Valor?" Joy gasped in disbelief. How could that be?! Many young ladies wanted to marry Jackson but could not. How could a woman like Serenity be so lucky?"Zeke! Are you mistaken?" Joy raised her voice."Why would I be? Jackson referred to himself as Serenity's husband! And Jackson's men referred to her as ‘Mrs. Valor’," Zeke said, recounting the events in the room with lingering fear. Zeke had almost hit Serenity, but the bodyguard had pinned him down. Thank God. If he had hurt her, he would not have gotten away easily. Jackson would make Zeke pay with his hands.Zeke had been there when Jenny had tortured Serenity. She had had someone remove Serenity's fingernails and ruin her hands. He had had a fleeting moment of fear when he remembered how he had watched her get tormented heartlessly.Jackson and Serenity were married. He might be coming for the Hall f
"I won't let this be the end of our family. If that day comes, I'll go to Jackson myself. As for you… All you can do now is not let Jackson vent his anger on the Hall family!" Quinton declared.Jenny's face contorted in disgust. The next day, the news of Jenny Hall, a former popular celebrity and the second daughter of the Hall family, made it to the headlines. Jenny had fallen down the steps and suffered comminuted fractures in both hands. She would require a prolonged hospital stay to treat her injuries. Even if she was cured, she might suffer from the long-term impacts of fractures. In the meantime, the Hall and Shaw family had declined all interviews.Serenity saw the news and asked Jackson about it. "Jenny broke her hands. Does it have something to do with you?"Jackson was reading a book titled ‘Pregnancy 101’ and smiled graciously. "What? Afraid I'll do something illegal just to get revenge for you?"Serenity said nothing, mouth pursed, almost like a silent agreement.Clo
"Our children." Reality hit differently when he saw her baby bump and swelling in pregnancy. Serenity was really pregnant with their children. He was going to be a father."You're going to be a good father," Serenity said, gently stroking his head."Really?" Jackson murmured hesitantly. Would he be a good father? He could not be sure, but he would never let his children experience the same childhood as him."You will," Serenity answered confidently before bursting into laughter suddenly."What are you laughing at?" Jackson asked, glancing up at her."It just occurred to me. I can't imagine the kids surrounding you. They'll call you Dad. You'll hold all three of them together whenever they ask for a hug." Serenity said, thinking about their future. She thought it would be interesting! Jackson had a dire expression on his face. With the triplets, the house would be so much more lively. He could not imagine the future with the kids! It seemed surreal, but it was her gift to him.
"The current situation is pretty good, but you'll need subcutaneous progesterone injections to prevent miscarriage. You'll continue to receive the injections daily. I'll prescribe them for a week, observe, and then make adjustments depending on the situation later. The injection will be given on the abdomen. It'll be more painful than injections given on the arms or buttocks. You need to be prepared for that," the doctor advised."Okay," Serenity agreed willingly, ready to endure the pain. The pain did not matter. She would do anything for her children's safe passage into this world. The nurse was about to administer a jab into her belly with a syringe with a long tip. Serenity remained calm, but Jackson got nervous and grabbed the nurse's hand. "This needle is going in?""Y-Yes," the nurse answered, voice trembling."Is it okay to use such a long needle?" Jackson asked.'Aren't the needles all the same length?' the nurse thought, looking at Jackson in confusion.Unlike Jackson,
'What is going on? Is that Mr. Valor? But what is he doing here? This is an antenatal class for expecting parents! Is Mr. Valor joining the lesson?'Mr. Aston blinked, trying to confirm whom he had just seen. Was this real?"What's wrong with you? Why are you blinking so much?" Mrs. Aston asked in confusion."I-It's nothing!" Mr. Aston squeaked, scrambling to an empty seat. He never expected to see Mr. Valor here. Not many people could stay calm in this situation! Mr. Aston quickly led his wife to the row behind Jackson. He then took a close look at the man sitting in front and realized… Indeed, it was Mr. Valor. He seemed to be accompanying the woman next to him.The woman next to Mr. Valor wore a loose-fitting dress. ‘She must be pregnant,’ Mr. Aston thought. 'Who is she? A relative? She can't be his wife! Mr. Valor is married? If that's the case, the news will be media headlines!'Serenity had even brought her notebook. She was planning on taking important notes from the clas
"Anyone else? Any volunteers?" The nurse asked before walking to Jackson. "Hey, Handsome, why don't you come up here and give it a try?"Jackson was the exquisite beauty and eye-catching one among the group of expectant fathers. He attracted a lot of attention, including the nurse. The nurse wanted to get Jackson on stage, hoping to see more of this handsome man.Dr. Ryleigh who was on the stage was shocked by the nurse's bold action! The nurse was trying to get Mr. Valor on stage, but this was not something he would do!Surprisingly, Jackson did not immediately reject it and instead turned to Serenity, who was sitting beside him. "Do you want me to go up there?""Would you?" Serenity asked in reply."If you want to see it, I'll do it for you," Jackson said.Serenity looked at the man in a neat suit. To be honest, she wanted to see what he would look like with a baby in his arms!Serenity nodded expectantly. "I want to.""Alright, then!" Jackson rose to his feet with a smile. A
Serenity needed to receive the injections daily for the next few days. However, she did not have to go to the hospital daily. Jackson had already arranged for the nurse to give her the injection at home, which made things a lot easier for her.The pain gradually increased as the frequency of the injection increased. There were often marks on the area on the stomach around the location of the injection, which looked a little scary.At night, Jackson looked at Serenity's slightly bruised stomach with pain in his eyes. "Why don't I talk to the doctor? Maybe something else can be done instead of injections.""No, it's fine. The doctor would've told us if there was a better way," Serenity said. "Besides, it looks a little scary, but it's not that terrible. Many pregnant women have it worse than me. Those who're going through IVF have to receive multiple injections from the start of the pregnancy until the baby's birth."Jackson fell silent. Serenity had been receiving the injection for
