Caleb continued, "But try not to mention her name again. Jackson doesn't seem to care anymore, but he doesn't like it brought up either.""How can he get over her?!" Lucas was still in disbelief.Caleb shrugged. "Why wouldn't he? She's just another woman. A man like Jackson has no shortage of women who like him. But it's not often to find a woman who can give birth to a son like his."The thought of the little boy from the Valor family made Caleb tremble. The five-year-old boy was too smart with an abnormally high IQ, and only Jackson could keep that kid in line. Caleb felt defeated thinking about his frustrating experience with the little kid. Fortunately, Micah was not his son, as the boy would have overpowered him.Lucas's face darkened. Just a woman?! But Jackson had almost gone crazy because of a woman like her. Could he really let go of his feelings for her? Lucas thought, finishing his drink in a gulp. Then, he strode to Jackson."Hey, Lucas!" Caleb grunted. What was Luca
"Jackson..." Lucas tried to say something, but Caleb quickly rushed over and stopped him."Jackson, Lucas is drunk and talking nonsense. Don't mind him," Caleb told Jackson and tried to drag Lucas out of trouble.Lucas refused to leave. Not just yet. He told Caleb, "Let go. I have to talk to him. There's something I need to know.""Hey! It's rare for you to be back. Why worry about this? Why not let me take you to some new exciting places in Solaria instead?" Caleb quickly suggested.Jackson suddenly spoke. "Caleb, just let him go. Since he insists, let him ask me."'Oh, dear God! Please don't get into a fight here!' Caleb sighed in his heart and had no choice but to let go of Lucas.Lucas stared at Jackson, who had a constant half-smile on his face. Somehow, he felt that something was strange about him. Perhaps five years was enough to make someone feel like a stranger again. Lucas feared meeting Jackson and had been deliberately avoiding meeting Jackson. Somehow, meeting Jackso
Micah was the only exception. Mr. Valor did not care about anyone around him, probably except for Micah. Although they got along, Mr. Valor and Micah treated each other coldly. Connor could not help but sigh as he thought about Mr. Valor and Micah's interaction. He wondered how it would be if Serenity had survived. If Mr. Valor had not forgotten his love for Serenity, Mr. Valor would have doted on Micah and treasured him. Maybe he would love his son as much as an ordinary father would do instead of being this cold with Micah.Unfortunately, there had to be some kind of trade-off. Mr. Valor could live on because he had forgotten his love for Serenity. And he got to watch Micah grow up!"Well, Mr. Valor, you really loved Mrs. Valor… You did in the past," Connor answered."I loved her?" Jackson snorted. Whenever people around him had told him about his relationship with Serenity, he listened to it like a story. Jackson felt like an outsider, even though it was his story. It was like
Gwen secretly made up her mind thinking of this. She was determined to take her chances at all costs! Blessed with a beautiful look and good figure, Gwen had always been attractive and was popular with young and rich men. Gwen had always dreamed of marrying into wealth. She got pregnant out of wedlock and wanted to use the child in her belly to marry her rich ex. Unfortunately for her, the child's father did not give her the slightest opportunity. In the end, she gritted her teeth and gave birth to her daughter anyway, but the child's father ignored her, saying that the child was none of his business."Mr. Valor, you're back! Anna kept saying she missed you today, so I brought her over," Gwen chirped, a charming smile spreading across her face.Anna walked over and seemed to want to hug Jackson, but she became timid and stopped a few steps away. "Daddy! Anna misses you so much," Anna said nervously, looking at Jackson's cold gaze.Jackson's cold gaze swept over the mother and daug
"You may leave," Jackson ordered.The home tutor then left the room, leaving the father and son in the room.Jackson looked at the complicated jigsaw puzzle his son was putting together. It was a 1000-piece puzzle and was a perfect size for grown-up puzzlers. An adult would take some time to finish such a puzzle, but Micah worked quickly, putting the pieces together.Jackson sat next to Micah and looked at the puzzle his son was working on. There were two boys and a girl on the puzzle. Three children… The triplets. Was his son thinking of his brother and sister?Five years ago, when Jackson had woken up in the hospital, Connor had told him that he had a wife named Serenity, and she was pregnant with triplets. Unfortunately, only one of the children survived after his wife had crashed into the ocean. When his son had gotten a little older, he had somehow found out about the triplets and insisted that he should have a brother and a sister.Jackson used to find it strange. He asked
Jackson narrowed his eyes. Had his son heard about the rumors? It seemed that someone was really up to no good. "I won't," Jackson replied with absolute certainty."Oh," Micah responded. He said nothing more, and the conversation between the father and son ended right there.The maid soon came into the room and helped the little one to get ready for bed. Meanwhile, Jackson returned to the study. After contemplating for a moment, he slowly opened the drawer.There was a marriage certificate inside the drawer, but the marriage was validly terminated with the death of the spouse.Jackson found a photo of the woman. She seemed like a quiet and gentle person and had a pretty face with a soothing smile. Jackson found her face pleasant, but she was not too much of a stunning beauty. After all, he had seen too many beautiful women in his life.Jackson pondered. Was he once in love with this woman? He even married her and had children with her?Based on how things were usually done in t
Although the information on Serenity's ID card was not hers, it was true. There seemed to be another Serenity who had grown up in Latveria City, but she was an orphan, and the photos in the official records were all of her from childhood to adulthood. Moreover, someone had 'rented' a house for her, and she found clothes in her size and some photos of her in her rental place. Serenity had no suspicion about her identity then. She thought she had lost her memory because of an accident, and she did not know who was the father of the child in her belly. Strangely enough, she felt she loved him very much. And she always thought that she had more than one child.She had been living as another Serenity since then. For two years, she always dreamed of her past with a man. Her intuition told her he was the man she loved and Jackie's father.At first, the man's face was always blurred, which also led to many silly things she did. Whenever she saw a man in the street who looked like the man i
"No, there must be a reason why your Dad didn't come to us," Serenity said. "When he sees you, he'll love you," Serenity reassured, but she wondered why Jack had not come to her. Maybe he thought she was dead. She had searched the internet for more information, where she was identified as Jackson's late wife.When the high-speed train arrived in Solaria, Serenity got off the train with her daughter. As she walked to the exit, she recognized a familiar person standing there with an anxious look.That person was her best friend, Lisa Quest!Tears welled in her eyes. Serenity had forgotten about Lisa in the past few days. Only recently, when her memory returned, she had finally reconnected with Lisa.Serenity still remembered when she had called Lisa to get in touch with her. Lisa was in complete disbelief, unable to believe she was really alive until they had a video call together."Lisa!" Serenity shouted from afar. Lisa heard her and immediately turned her head, her eyes welling
