For one night, Serenity felt like she was back in the old days, making out with Jackson, but that was always him initiating back then. She was the only one who could enjoy his service!As Jackson dressed her in a bathrobe and carried her out of the bathroom, she leaned on his chest and purred, "Jack, do you realize how much I love you now? There's really nothing between me and Lucas…"Jackson was always in control, but it was totally different whenever he was with her.Jackson took Serenity to the bedroom and laid her on the bed. "Serenity, you're my wife. I've loved you before, so I'll learn to love you again."Her face lit up with joy. "Really? Will you?""Yes," Jackson promised. "But you must never betray me. You must never leave me again like you did. Understood?"Unable to resist the urge to touch him, Serenity reached out and touched his face, his eyes shining like the stars in the darkness of the night.Betray him? Jackson had once said this to her before his father's por
Serenity was happy to see Micah and Jacqueline bonding as siblings."Can Dad come with me on my first day at kindergarten?" Jacqueline asked, her clear eyes sparkling with anticipation.Jackson arched an eyebrow in surprise. "You want me to come with you?""Because on the first day of school, many of my friends had their dads accompany them to kindergarten!" Jacqueline said. Even though it was not the first day of school anymore, it was still her first day at the new kindergarten. She had only had Mom with her before, but she finally had a Dad. Jacqueline wanted her parents to accompany her, just like everyone else.The little girl could not wait to experience her first day at the new kindergarten with her dad."Let's go together tomorrow," Jackson said. Jacqueline was so happy that she opened her arms, wanting a hug from Dad.Jackson pursed his lips, a little new to his daughter's initiative. After all, his son was not as clingy as his daughter. Looking at his daughter's cute ey
As far as Serenity knew, Jackson would go out with Micah together, but they usually took two separate cars. In other words, the maid and driver were the ones who accompanied Micah to kindergarten.Thinking of this, Serenity felt guilty, regretting her carelessness.Micah felt a little awkward from the hug. Since he was old enough, he had rarely got a hug like this, but he found Mom's hug very comfortable.Would Mom send him to kindergarten every day even if Jackie did not have to go to kindergarten? For some reason, he felt happy when he heard Mom say this.***On Jacqueline's first day of kindergarten, Serenity dressed the siblings in identical outfits. The siblings were almost the same height, and she found it adorable to see them dressed in the same color. The only difference was that Micah wore pants, and Jacqueline wore a skirt.Serenity could not resist hugging and kissing both the kids again. Jacqueline had already gotten used to it. Mom had always liked to kiss her since
When Anna and Gwen emerged from the Porsche, the crowd watched them in amusement. After all, before Jacqueline and Serenity's appearance, many thought Gwen would most likely marry into the Valor family with Anna.Serenity saw Gwen's Porsche and frowned slightly. She had heard a lot about Gwen from Elliot and Connor lately. Gwen was originally just a humble internet celebrity. After her rich boyfriend dumped her, she had had a child out of wedlock, and her life naturally became difficult.Anna was adopted by the Valor family just two years ago. The Valor family gave Anna and Gwen a place to stay, a real estate, which was illiquid. The Valor family also provided the mother and daughter a monthly allowance of 30 thousand to cover their living expenses. Gwen could save up all that money and still not afford this Porsche. Also, Gwen looked like she was wearing an outfit costing hundreds of thousands.Gwen knew Serenity was looking at her, sizing her up. Gwen observed Serenity, still surp
Jackson held Micah's hand, and Serenity grabbed Jacqueline's. The siblings were holding hands as they walked into the kindergarten.In the past, Gwen would have been happy to let everyone else see her with Jackson, but not this time. She kept her down as she walked behind the family of four with her daughter in tow, hoping no one would recognize her.On the other hand, while holding Gwen's hand, Anna kept staring at Jacqueline and Micah's hands.Micah had only held her hand once when he first met her and never held her hand again. Anna did not understand. Mom would have the maid do her hair daily and she always wore beautiful princess dresses, but Micah grew to dislike her as she became prettier than before and stopped talking to her. Anna thought she was Micah's sister too! Why? Was it because she was adopted? Mom said the little girl who fought her for photos of Mr. Valor was Mr. Valor's real daughter. She was Micah's biological sister.When Serenity and Jackson reached Micah a
Lisa took her phone and went to the corridor outside the office to talk. "Mom, I'll find a date on my own. Don't worry about it and don't keep looking for a blind date for me. How many has it been?""You know how many! It's been years. You're not 28 anymore. You're 33 this year. It won't be long before your fertility will decline so much that you can't find someone to date!" Mrs. Quest said bitterly.The light in Lisa's eyes dimmed. She knew her mother's worries and anxiety. Mrs. Quest was worried she would grow old alone with no one to take care of her. If she waited too long, she would miss a woman's peak reproductive years and end up childless. Lisa did not mind growing old alone. It was no big deal at all. Besides, she could live a good life all by herself. Although she would eventually get old, she could retire in a nursing home.Lisa did not want her parents to worry more than they already had, so she gave in. "Okay, okay. I get it. Give me his contact. I'll contact him and
Lisa slowly came to her senses and quickly understood Louie's real intention. Louie was just trying to gain some satisfaction by poking fun at her.When Lisa and Terry were dating, Louie kept making sarcastic comments about her. Lisa knew Louie was talking behind her back, saying Terry would dump her sooner or later. When she returned to the office after her recovery, Louie had gloated over the fact that she had broken up with Terry and that Terry had dumped her. She had even made snide remarks about her. "See, I knew it. A guy like Terry can't be serious about you."'Can't be serious?' Lisa did not think so. Anyway, at least… When they were dating, she could tell that Terry really loved her. Unfortunately, she did not have the background to give him what he wanted.'It's such a pity that Lisa and Terry broke up. Otherwise, Lisa would be the wife of the White Maple Group CEO right now," Louie said with impish glee. She could not miss any chance to gloat over Lisa's misery. Lisa lo
Lisa closed the webpage and sent a text to the man she was supposed to go on a blind date with that evening. Right now, she should be focusing all her attention on the blind date and not anything else! Perhaps she might one day meet someone on a blind date whom she truly liked who also liked her too.As dusk fell, Lisa went to the square in the city center at the agreed time where she met her blind date for the evening–Gale Porter. He was said to be a department head of a large company, and as soon as Lisa caught sight of him, she could not help but gasp silently. It seemed that the man her mother had set her up on a date with this time was slightly… out of her league.Gale was wearing leather shoes, a smart suit, and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses. He seemed elegant and gentlemanly, not to mention quite attractive as well. According to her mother, he was supposed to be two years older than her, so he should be 35 years old, and yet, he looked like he was not a day older than 30."
