My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 1449
When she thought of how Lisa was pulling herself together, Serenity's heart went out to Lisa, but more than that, Serenity was really proud of her. She was proud to have such a strong friend. She knew that Lisa wouldn't be defeated so easily!Lisa didn't wallow in despair after breaking up with Terry. She took her treatment seriously so that she would recover properly. She even joked with Serenity, "It's just a breakup. Big deal. Everybody goes through it. Who marries their first love anymore nowadays? Maybe I'll meet my Mr. Right the moment I leave the hospital!"Lisa's optimism and cheerfulness made Serenity believe that Lisa would definitely find her happiness one day!"Thank goodness." Clara felt relieved. "Serenity, make sure you and Lisa don't end up like me."She would not fall in love anymore for the rest of her life.The two women did not notice that the door was not properly shut. There was a vague figure of a man outside the door.Serenity and Jackson later returned t

"Really? If... If one day, you discovered that I'd done something to hurt you, you wouldn't take me back no matter how hard I beg you for forgiveness?" He found this question really hard to ask. He had to force the words out of his throat.Serenity turned around and looked at Jackson in confusion. "Jack, what's gotten into you? You seem to be feeling uneasy a lot lately."Jackson fell silent. Uneasy... Yes! He was indeed feeling uneasy.He was nervous after witnessing what happened between Clara and Wilson. He was afraid that he would meet the same fate as Wilson."If you're feeling uneasy because of what I said just now, well... you shouldn't! I was reminded of Zeke Shaw, that's all. Don't overthink it.How can you possibly hurt me? Besides..."She paused and gently stroked his eyebrows that were knitted tight with worry, "Didn't I tell you that I would forgive you for anything the moment I see you cry?"She said that to lighten the mood so that he wouldn't look so worried.Sure

Serenity insisted on going to the hospital with Jackson. Unable to win against her insistence, Jackson finally agreed. Later, the two went to the hospital together. When they arrived at the hospital, Jackson had the bodyguards stay by Serenity's side as he went into the ward alone.In the ward, Master Zack lay on the white bed, looking very sick and frail. The once all-powerful man was finally close to the end of his life.Master Zack was obviously holding on to his last breath. When he saw Jackson walk in, his voice trembled, "Y-You came…""Yeah. I'm here," Jackson responded. He was never fond of Master Zack. Master Zack was solely a disciplinarian and a nurturer to him, so they did not have much of a great relationship as a grandfather and grandson. As the nurturer, Master Zack could have eliminated Jackson at any time. He treated Jackson as a pawn, a chess piece. He could stay if he proved his value, but Master Zack would quickly abandon him as soon he was no longer useful."F

Jackson's declaration sent a clear message to Master Zack. He was totally determined to overcome everything for Serenity, his love.Master Zack glared at his grandson, but his cloudy eyes struggled to focus. He seemed tired, and his eyelids fluttered closed. His breath rasped in his throat as he spoke. "Men of the Valor family… Those who are deeply in love…. They won't end up well. If you stay stubborn, you'll come to a bad end…"Master Zack's voice grew weaker, his voice finally silenced by the cold embrace of death. The rhythm of his heart stopped, and the electrocardiogram machine showed a straight line. Serenity shivered, knowing that Master Zack's heartbeat had stopped. She had just witnessed the end of a life before her eyes. Master Zack had been Jack's family and his grandfather. It was surreal to know that the man she feared had passed away.Jackson had been holding Serenity's hand the whole time. He tightened his grip on her hand so hard that she let out a cry in pain.

The mourning hall remained brightly lit for three days. To honor the dead, the incense sticks and candles should remain lighted for as long as possible.Serenity found Jackson in the mourning hall, standing like a statue. Shadows fell everywhere where the light did not glow. Jackson looked at the body in the coffin, his eyes dark and hooded and his handsome face expressionless. "Jack," Serenity called out and brought Jackson back to his senses. Jackson turned to look at Serenity. "Didn't I tell you to stay out of here? I'll be fine.""I came to check on you." Serenity approached Jackson, touching his face. The weather was getting colder at the beginning of January. Although it was indoors, it was cold in the mourning hall. There was no heating in the mourning hall, and it would get even colder at night."Are you going to stay here all night?" she asked."He's the one who raised me. I have to fulfill my responsibilities as his grandson," Jackson murmured. "There will be many peo

Jackson had longed for a family. He must have yearned for Master Zack's love. When the young Jackson returned to the Valor family, Master Zack was the only family he had left. He was the only one he could rely on."Actually, I should thank him. I was able to meet you because he raised you to be a great man," Serenity said softly. "From now on, I'll give you the love of family, and so will the kids."Jackson was stunned for a moment, his eyes flashing with surprise. He had never told her what he truly wanted, but she knew what he longed for—family love."You said what people care about the most are different. So what about you? What do you care about the most?" Jackson asked in a low voice, breathing in her heavenly scent. He had always loved her smell. It made him feel at ease."Me?" Serenity gave it a thought. "What I care about most is you and our future family with the kids. That's what matters to me!""But Serenity, I'm very greedy. So greedy that I won't share your love with

Serenity would be the rightful lady of the Valor family after Master Zack's passing. Moreover, rumor said that Serenity was pregnant with triplets. She would likely strengthen her position after giving birth to the triplets.Those who came to attend Master Zack's funeral treated her nicely and refrained from showing her the slightest attitude. Serenity stood by Jackson's side as a family member throughout the funeral. The funeral ceremony for a family like the Valor family was naturally more elaborate than for an ordinary family. Afraid that Serenity would get tired, Jackson told her to sit down and rest. Even so, she insisted on staying with him."I'm fine. I'll let you know when I do feel tired. I won't take any risks with my current condition," Serenity promised, knowing very well that she was not alone and carrying three lives in her belly. Just then, the usher announced the Gomez family's arrival. When Lucas's name was called, Serenity shook slightly. She then reflexively tu

Lucas had been staring at Serenity for too long. Some guests were glancing at them, whispering and wondering what had happened."What's wrong, Lucas? Do you have anything to say?" Jackson said coldly, holding Serenity's hand possessively.Lucas pursed his lips and walked away without saying anything. Mrs. Gomez breathed a sigh of relief and quickly followed Lucas. Serenity was equally relieved."Relax. It'll be fine." Jackson's voice rang in her ears, startling her slightly. Serenity turned to the man beside her and listened to him as he spoke. "Today is Master Zack's funeral. Lucas won't cause a scene here. If he does, the Gomez and Valor family will become enemies. Besides—" Jackson paused slightly and tightened his grip on her hand. "He knows he has lost his chance. And he will gain nothing by causing a scene."The funeral went well. Serenity stayed until after Master Zack's burial and then sat down at the rest area in the cemetery.Lately, Serenity had gotten into the habit

“……” 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
