Chapter 1373

Author: Anastasia Marie
Serenity could only hear her friend laboriously uttering one word after another, slowly telling her, "Serenity… I… I want to see… I want to see Terry… Could… Could you help me find him…? Could you… help me… contact him… and tell him… that I want to see him… that no matter what happens… I believe in him…"

Suddenly, tears began to stream down Serenity's face. She did not even have a clue how to answer Lisa when Terry White, the man that Lisa believed in, was with another woman right now, and in fact… she might have to break the news that Lisa never wished to hear!

As tears streamed down her eyes, Terry suddenly darted toward her and asked, "What happened to Lisa? Did something bad happen to her?"

Serenity was still choked up and had not even begun to speak when Terry snatched her phone away. He then shouted anxiously at the phone, "What happened to Lisa?!"

"Terry…"

That was the only word he could hear from the other end of the line, but it was enough to make his whole body freeze b

    "Are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?"At that point, Jackson became the most anxious person in the room. The moment he saw her staggering backward, he could feel every drop of blood in his body almost freezing over.Serenity was also in shock herself, and her face had gotten very pale. She knew that she had acted too rashly just now and that if she really fell, the three babies in her belly would be in danger.After regaining her composure, she replied, "I… I'm fine."Jackson supported her and helped her stand firmly on her feet again before he turned his cold gaze toward Terry."Mr. White," he said, "I hope you understand that if anything happened to my wife just now, I'll make sure that the White family disappears from Jorvik City forever.""Really?" Terry responded, unbothered. "Aren't you getting too busy, Mr. Valor? You've got your hands full here in Solaria, and you're trying to dip your toes in Jorvik City too? Okay, then. If you think you've got what it takes to make the

    The three of them then got into the car and headed toward the hospital.Now that Lisa had been transferred to the general ward, the hospital had arranged a VIP private room for her. It was a pretty comfortable room. It even came with a guest bed nearby where either her father or her mother would sleep at night to accompany her.At that moment, Lisa sat quietly on her bed. She had even made an effort to tidy up the hospital gown she was wearing. Her head was still wrapped in thick layers of white bandages, and her usually bright and pretty face now seemed pale and haggard after two major operations and a long hospital stay.Her parents also stood quietly by her side. They both knew that once their daughter made up her mind to do something, nothing in this world could stop her or change her mind. Just as Lisa had given up on her studies abroad and returned home in order to save Serenity all those years ago and how she persisted and did what she made up her mind to do even though her p

    Especially when… they had met up with Terry in person today, and it was obvious to Jackson that Terry was trying very hard to conceal his thoughts and true feelings, but as soon as he heard what had happened to Lisa, all that shattered to a thousand pieces."But Terry and Monica Hart are…" Serenity argued hesitatingly."He probably has his own reason," said Jackson. "Sometimes, you can't have both power and love. You might be forced to choose one or the other.""You mean," said Serenity, taken aback, "he chose Monica so that he could regain his power over the White family?!""It's just a possibility," replied Jackson.Serenity fell silent. She wondered, could Terry really be such a man? What exactly would Terry and Lisa be talking about now, anyway?!Meanwhile, Jackson kept holding her hand tightly, as if trying to soothe away her nerves and uneasiness.Inside the ward, Lisa and Terry stared at each other. For some reason, although they were merely inches away from each other, L

    With all her strength, she raised her hand and touched his cheek. It was a face that was once so familiar to her. Although she had touched it countless times before, it still felt strange. Despite the initial excitement when she had heard the news, at the present moment, she could listen to him say these things calmly. Maybe… she had prepared herself mentally for this? “Very well, then. From now on… we… will have nothing to do with each other,” she muttered as her fingers fell on his lips as if it was a ritual. “Terry… I hope you’ve found what you wanted.” She didn’t want their breakup to be filled with tears. She didn’t want to end up making an enemy of someone she loved the most. Even if they broke up, even if she no longer loved him, she hoped that they could end things on good terms. After all, this was a man whom she felt true love for. The only thing that ended their relationship was the fact that she could not give him what he wanted. Unfortunately, his desire for th

    What’s more… over the past few years, Wilson had never shown sexual interest in her. The only time they slept together was three months ago when Wilson was drunk, and that was after she had deliberately thrown herself into his arms. However, even as they did the deed, Wilson in his drunkenness kept calling out Clara’s name. After they were done, she continued lying on his bed the entire night, but not once did he lay his hands on her. Even if she were to force Wilson to sleep with her tonight, the time still wouldn’t add up. She cared more about her position as the mistress of the Birch family than her own child.“Then abort the child. Make sure you do it in secret before marrying into his family. Tell him that you need a few days to rest and recuperate. That should be enough to cover up the situation,” advised Sandra’s father after pondering in silence. Sandra thought about his proposal. There was no denying that the child had to be aborted, but… she could come up with a bett

    Since it was someone she loved so deeply, it naturally hurt a lot when they broke up like this. However, more important than her own pain and anguish were her friends and family. She didn’t want them to worry about her. To be worthy of their care and concern, she had to keep her chin up and hold back her tears. “Serenity… I will try my best to move on from Terry… I think I’ll gradually forget about our relationship over time. I will neither hate nor complain about him…. After all, there is no grudge between him and me. Our breakup only happened because our values do not match,” said Lisa. All of a sudden, Serenity felt her tears welling up. Lisa was tougher than she thought. She definitely deserved a better man in the future!In the afternoon, Clara dropped by for a visit. She was caught by surprise upon learning of Lisa and Terry’s breakup. She also felt somewhat relieved when she saw how open-minded Lisa’s attitude was toward the breakup. At least Lisa was relatively cheer

    Clara lowered her gaze and said, “If that’s the case, I don’t regret meeting Wilson in my life. Perhaps it’s my fate. I can only hope that I won’t meet him again in my next life.” Serenity pursed her lips. Even if Clara had accepted her fate, she still refused to do so. She had to find a way to ensure Clara survived! ————After leaving the hospital, Serenity made her way to the Valor Group. The front desk workers and security guards recognized her immediately. After all, the scene of Serenity standing at the door demanding to see the President was still fresh in their minds. Back then, they had thought the President would never give her the time of day. However, in the end, the President had gotten his secretary to escort her up to his office. Due to this, they were a little unsure whether to let her in or not. Just as Serenity was about to call Jackson to explain the situation, she noticed Connor walking nearby, so she called out to him, “Mr. Gunn!” Upon seeing Serenity

    Compared to before, her standing now was a stark contrast to the past. Serenity walked over to Jackson’s desk and noticed the documents that lined his desk. One could almost imagine how busy he was at work. Suddenly, her attention fell on a folder that was labeled “Emerald Hall Garden”. She recalled that Emerald Hall Garden was a property that belonged to the Hall family. It was one of the most important projects in their recent foray into the real estate industry. It was said that tens of billions had been spent to purchase the land, and much development had been carried out on the land. The amount of publicity given to the project reflected the level of importance the Hall family had attached to it. But why was the file on Jack’s desk? Serenity was still pondering in silence when the door to the office swung open. She accidentally knocked over a folder from being startled, sending its contents spilling out on the floor. She was stunned the moment she noticed what these co

    “……” 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
