Serenity must have practiced a lot for these drawings. Her hands were permanently hurt, so she must have struggled a lot during the practice. "This gift isn't worth much, but I hope it's a good memory. Let's wear them again when we grow old.""It's indeed a very beautiful memory," Jackson murmured. Serenity was his happiness. He had so many beautiful memories all because of her. She was the only one who could give him all of this! He leaned forward, kissing her gently. "Serenity, thank you!"***Sandra was in a small hotel room, looking at her ex-boyfriend with some disgust. Sandra loathed the man with a playful smile on sight, wondering how she could have chosen Yardley as her boyfriend back then. Yardley was so much worse than Wilson. Fortunately, she had come to her senses in time and quickly dumped Yardley.Noticing the look of disgust in her eyes, Yardley reminded, "Hey, Sandra. You must be thinking about how you were so unlucky to be with me back then. To be honest, we're t
Clara and Yanny made their way down. Wilson's car was already waiting downstairs. Wilson was leaning against the car, seemingly lost in thought."Dad!" Yanny saw Wilson from afar and called out to him.Wilson looked up and saw Clara and Yanny walking toward him. Clara wore a light blue woolen dress with a navy canvas bag and a pair of white sneakers. She wore light makeup, looking very different from how she looked while running the food stall. Clara was pretty and lively. The way she looked reminded him of the time before she had been sentenced to prison. While Wilson was in some weird trance, the young boy and his mother were already approaching."Morning, Dad," Yanny greeted politely."Morning," Wilson replied and then urged, "Get in the car. We don't want to be late for the amusement park."Wilson opened the car door quickly, almost as though he was trying to cover up how he felt when he saw Clara.Yanny quickly got into the backseat. Just as Clara was about to get in, Wi
When picking up the tickets, Yanny said, "Mom, can we take more photos with Dad today?"Startled, Clara turned to look at Yanny. "I'll take more photos of you and Dad.""I want to take photos with you and Dad," Yanny said.Take photos with them? Together? Clara fell silent. She could say yes, but Wilson might refuse."We can't take a photo together? Because Dad and Mom are divorced?" Yanny asked sullenly. "But someone in my class… His parents are divorced too, but… He has a lot of photos with them," the little one said with a hint of quiet sadness on his face.Clara patted her son's head in silence. After pondering for a moment, she suggested, "I'll take more photos of you and Dad first, and then we can take some photos together, okay?""Yeah," Yanny nodded, smiling again.Clara sighed softly and was silent for a moment. Looking at her son's face, she knew she would do anything for Yanny's happiness, fulfilling his wish. Yanny wanted photos with his parents, so she would try h
It was only when it was their turn to ride the merry-go-round that Clara realized it was spinning faster than she thought when she was just standing nearby and watching it. Due to her illness and because she had been eating very little lately, she suddenly felt overcome by nausea, and the area around her liver started to hurt again.Yanny's childlike screams were obviously filled with joy and excitement. Clara knew how happy her son was. Clutching tightly at the armrest beside her, she stiffened her body up and tried her very best to suppress the discomfort she was feeling, and because she was so preoccupied with this, she was completely oblivious to Wilson's gaze which was, at the moment, fixed on her.The spinning speed was nothing at all to him, of course. Still, taking such a childish ride with a little boy was indeed something he had never experienced before. Hearing his son's cries of joy had unexpectedly filled him with a kind of pride and joy that was totally foreign to him.
She could only hope that he would treat Yanny kindly in the future!After taking a few pictures, Yanny suddenly said, "Mommy! Come and take pictures with me and Daddy too! Can she join us, Daddy?"The boy looked up with anticipation at Wilson.Wilson was just about to give him a reply when Clara cut him off by saying, "It's fine, Yanny. While we were all having fun, Mommy noticed that the amusement park would take pictures of us all together. I'll show you all those pictures they took when we go home, okay?"The boy nodded eagerly, and he did not bring up the subject of taking pictures together again after that.Clara sighed in relief. In fact, she had just noticed that the amusement did such a thing herself. This saved her from forcing herself to take pictures with Wilson. Although she understood that it was her son's wish, doing so would still be torture to her.Wilson's countenance darkened. Was this woman so unwilling to take pictures with him? He should be the reluctant one,
"If I am going to die one day," Clara calmly replied, "I'll make sure that I'm nowhere near you because I don't want you to be the last person I see before I die!""You–"He glared at her. He could feel the pang in his heart, almost as if he had just been stabbed by her words."You're always talking as if you're about to die," he said. "You're not trying to make me feel sorry for you, are you?"She did not say anything in reply. She just kept her head down and continued swallowing the pills one by one. It was only when she had swallowed them all that she looked up and stared straight into his eyes before asking, "So, will you ever feel sorry for me? If I really am going to die and you have the chance to save me, will you do it?"His heart trembled. What did she mean by asking that? Was she really going to die?That suspicion merely flashed across his mind for a brief moment before he squashed it. How could it be possible?! She was only saying all these things to make him feel sor
When Clara got home, she carefully tucked Yanny in his bed, and just then, a notification sounded on her phone. It was a news notification.Usually, she never paid much attention to such notifications at all, but the news in the notification happened to be one that shocked her. She quickly picked up her phone and tapped on the link to the news article.It was… news about Terry White!The article described how Terry had joined forces with the Hart family in Jorvik City and how he had suddenly turned up at the shareholders' meeting today and completely regained his power over the White family.Immediately afterward, the police had arrested the late Mr. White's lawful wife and her two sons on suspicion of intentionally causing serious injuries. With that, it could be said that Terry's half-brothers' family had suffered a total defeat and lost everything.Which meant that Terry White was the final victor in this battle!But there was an additional paragraph that claimed that the Whit
Jackson's eyes gleamed. It was indeed true that if Lisa had not been seriously injured, Serenity would never have come to him and begged for his help. Naturally, she would also never have agreed to marry him so quickly and decisively if it were not for Lisa."Fine," he said, "I'll think of a way to make Terry White come to Solaria. That way, you won't have to travel to Jorvik and then back here.""What if he refuses to come to Solaria?" Serenity asked."He will come," Jackson replied without any hesitation. "Even if he refuses to come, I'll tie him up and drag him here."As long as it was her wish, he would do anything to make it a reality!And so, two days later, Serenity really did get a chance to meet Terry White in person. The only problem was that he had brought someone with him to Solaria–Miss Monica Hart.Even though Serenity had seen a picture of Monica Hart before, she realized when she met the woman in person that Monica was far more dazzlingly beautiful in person than
