"This isn't the kind of place for people like you," said Gwen haughtily."Why not?" asked Lisa, amused. "Do you think you're more special than me? Everything that you have now, you only got it because your daughter was adopted by the Valor family. But how are you in any way better than me before that? Is your family wealthier than mine? Are you more educated than me? Or are you more successful in your career? Do you earn more money than me?"In fact, Gwen Scott had just been an ordinary citizen of Solaria in the past with even lower qualifications and achievements than Lisa!Hearing this, Gwen's expression turned ugly, and she picked up the glass of water that the SA had just poured for her and tried to splash it onto Lisa.But Lisa had her guard up even as she was speaking, so as soon as she noticed Gwen making a move, she reached out and twisted Gwen's arm at just the right moment so that the water in the glass ended up spilling on Gwen's body instead.Gwen shrieked, which immed
But now that Serenity had tried the dress on, Gwen knew that it did not matter if Serenity wanted the dress or not, she still could not possibly wear it to the banquet anymore!"Ms. Lewis," Gwen greeted her awkwardly. "What a coincidence. I didn't think I'd find you here.""It is quite a coincidence, isn't it? I was in the fitting room just now, and I wondered what all the noise outside was about. I never thought that it'd be you."Then, Serenity went on to correct Gwen by adding, "Also, shouldn't you be addressing me as Mrs. Valor? Jack has reminded you before, remember?"Gwen gritted her teeth violently. Jack, Jack, Jack! How could she be calling him by such an intimate nickname?! In the past, she was not even allowed to call him "Jackson" and was warned by him to always address him as "Mr. Valor" instead.As if she did not even have the right to call him by his first name!"Mrs. Valor…" Gwen smiled wryly. "It was just a misunderstanding just now. I hope you won't take it to he
Could it be that this woman was, in fact…?In that instant, the store manager and the SA who had been trying to curry favor with Gwen began to look sickly and pale.Serenity boldly accepted the card and made no objections to it at all. Then, she turned to the SA who had been waiting on her and said, "In that case, I'll take this dress, and can you please wrap it up for me after I take it off?"The young SA responded nervously, "S-Sure…"Having bagged such a purchase so soon after starting to work here was simply like a pie just falling out of the sky and onto her lap!Meanwhile, Gwen was starting to feel more and more humiliated now, so she picked up her bag and tried to sneak out of the store, but she was immediately stopped by Serenity."Ms. Scott, the matter isn't settled yet. Aren't you going to check the surveillance with us?"Gwen chuckled awkwardly and then said, "There… There's no need for all that. I was careless and just spilled the water on myself, that's all.""Sinc
“Alright… alright, I understand. Of course I won’t make any purchases that do not reflect my social standing,” said Gwen as she hastily left the store. That night, after coaxing the two little ones to sleep, Serenity returned to her bedroom and started searching for news related to Terry on her phone. Although Jackie was given a nicely decorated room to herself, she still preferred to share a room with Micah.Whenever bedtime came around, she would flop down on Micah’s bed and urge her brother to tell her a story, a scene that Serenity found amusing.Serenity hoped that these two could grow closer, and considering their tender age, she decided to let them sleep together. She wondered if it was a pain for Micah, who seldomly spoke but was forced to tell stories by his talkative sister. Not only did she bug him to tell stories, but whenever she felt he wasn’t speaking with enough emotions, she would insist that he repeat that story several times. Serenity expected Micah to lo
Jackson’s dark eyes seemed to be smiling at her. He gently took her hand and said, “You’re not allowed to be interested in any other man. For the rest of your life, you can only be interested in me!” Serenity was momentarily left stunned. Despite his memory loss, his domineering attitude remained the same as before. In the past, he hated the idea of her getting close to any other men. He would always step in and remind her that she could only love him… Now that she thought about it, she realized how sweet he actually was back then. Serenity was brought back to the present by a sharp pain in her ear. She glanced to the side and realized that Jackson was nibbling on her earlobe. Her body trembled, and at that moment, it felt as if all her blood was rushing toward her ear. “Quit playing around, Jack…” While shaking, Serenity raised her hands to cover her ears. However, before her hands could reach her ears, Jackson pinned her arms down. “I’m not playing around…” he murmured
As sinister as those words sounded, Jackson spoke with complete indifference, almost as if it were just a simple matter.“Don’t even bother with those things. I just want you to make her understand that you are mine, and that’s enough. Stop giving her hope. If she has any other ideas and dares to do something out of line, I will deal with her myself,” said Serenity. In any case, like a toothbrush, husbands were never meant to be shared! Jackson raised his eyebrow slightly, “So I’m yours?” The blush that had just faded from Serenity’s cheeks reappeared, but this time, she did not avoid Jackson’s gaze. Instead, she replied earnestly, “Yes, you are mine. You are Serenity Lewis’ husband.” A gentle look surfaced in Jackson’s eyes, something which he hadn’t noticed. He was accustomed to being in control, so when someone uttered such words, it wasn’t uncommon for him to find it disgusting. However, when it came from Serenity, it brought him a sense of happiness and fulfillment that h
It seemed that subconsciously, something stopped him from allowing her to leave his side. Suddenly, he felt the urge to learn how much he loved her in the past before he lost his memory…————When Terry returned to his villa in Solaria, he noticed Monica sitting casually on the sofa waiting for him.“Who let you in here?” asked Terry as he squinted at her with a look of displeasure. “I am now your girlfriend, am I not? If I wanted to come in, there’s nothing the security guards outside can do to stop me, right?” Monica chuckled. Her beautiful face exuded a seductive vibe. “Were you visiting your ex-girlfriend again?” Terry’s expression soured in an instant. Yes, he had gone to see Lisa again, but… he had been watching her from the shadows all this while. He watched her commute home from work in that car from five years ago, go on dates with the man he had seen before, and watched her smile at him. As if that wasn’t bad enough, the only thing he could do was watch. His heart
Unfortunately, his moment of carelessness in the past had utterly wrecked his relationship with Lisa. In fact, he had lost even the right to have a relationship with Lisa. Terry lowered his gaze and concealed the dullness in his gaze. “If a wedding’s what you want, it’s not impossible for me to arrange it. After the matter in Solaria is settled, we can discuss it with your family.” “Really?” Monica’s face lit up immediately as she did not expect Terry to concede so easily. “Since I’ve said it, do you think I’m joking?” asked Terry indifferently. His gaze was sharp as he looked at Monica. “However, you will agree not to lay a finger on Lisa again. If you dare to harm her in any way, I’ll make sure we meet our ends together!” Monica’s body stiffened up. The intensity in his eyes was frightening! Even though he had agreed to marry her, he was far from being in love with her. Monica, on the other hand, refused to believe this. She thought that it was only a matter of time before
