My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 1611
When Serenity left the detention center, it was still early. She had two hours before picking up the children from the kindergarten, so she went to meet Clara.As Serenity approached Clara's store, she noticed the same black car she had seen last time. Parked in the dark corner just like last time, the man sitting inside had a good view of Clara's store. Serenity immediately recognized Wilson's car. Wilson had not dated in years. He had moved half the Birch Group to Solaria, and Serenity knew it was all for Clara. Some broken things could be mended, but not Clara and Wilson's broken relationship. If Wilson had not pushed Clara over the edge, causing all her misery, he could have been with Clara long ago. Serenity came to the store and saw Clara busy braiding some handsome bracelets. Serenity remembered making a bracelet like this as a child. She would turn ropes of different colors into bracelets. It had been quite popular among girls in her generation."Clara, why are you making

"Adopted?""Yeah, that family is quite complicated. The man remarried another woman after his wife died. The man has a daughter with his late wife and a son with his new wife. Later, he suddenly adopted a child, which is strange. He already has two children, but he adopted another child who's not blood-related," Clara said.Many people in the neighborhood knew the family's history. Clara had lived in the area for years, so she knew. Serenity's heart ached for Caden again. Was Caden not blood-related to his current family? He must be living a hard life in the family. Without his sister's protection, he might get kicked out of the family.What would he do if they abandoned him? Where could he go? An orphanage? Then wait for the next family to adopt him?Finding a good home for Caden would take a lot of work. Those looking for adoption would prefer a younger child. Caden was already old enough to remember things. On top of that, he was not very likable."I'm gonna check on the boy
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 1613
Serenity stayed a little longer, accompanying the boy until it was almost time to pick up Micah and Jackie from kindergarten. When Serenity was about to leave, she told Caden, "Caden, I'm leaving. I'll see you again, okay?"The little boy simply ignored Serenity, almost as if he had never heard her.Serenity's expression changed, and her eyes dimmed. The child's reaction stung her a little bit. She felt a slight aching pain in her chest. It was like she was being forcibly separated from someone she should have been close to. The accompanying thought brought a sardonic smile to her lips. 'What was wrong with her?' She wondered. Caden was just a child she had met. She was a little saddened by the child's story, but it was strange she felt pain because of the child's attitude toward her!Calming herself, Serenity left the child and returned to Clara's store."Hey, what's wrong? You seem pretty concerned about the kid," Clara said, curious as to why Serenity had stayed so long with t

Wilson sat in the car, watching his son return from school. He saw Clara smiling softly at Yanny, the same smile she had shown him long ago.Wilson had destroyed everything with his own hands. Whenever he thought of the love and affection she had shown him before, the regret overwhelmed him. It hurt to have lost her love, especially after realizing how much he had loved her.Wilson stayed in the car, drowning in regret. The sky was getting dark, but he was still reluctant to leave. He just wanted to spend more time here. Wilson kept watching Clara and Yanny until the lights in the store went out. 'Has another day passed?' He thought, his eyes hooded. Every day he lived seemed like torture to him, but it had only been five years since he had learned the pain of not being able to get what he wanted.Smiling bitterly, Wilson wondered how many years more he would live in pain. Even his own flesh and blood would not call him 'Daddy' ever again. Just as Wilson was about to start the c

"I came to talk. You shouldn't come here again." Clara was very calm, a contrast to Wilson, who was still panicking silently. Wilson froze, and his face instantly paled. "I'm just watching from a distance. I'm not bothering you, am I? Is this not okay?""You should stop," Clara said. "Wilson, we shouldn't see each other again. It's better for us. We should have stopped meeting after the operation."Not see each other again?! These words stung Wilson, making him barely able to breathe. "I know… I made a big mistake before. I-I'm trying to make up for it. I know I can't fix everything, but Clara, I know I was wrong.""I beg you, please. Don't take away my only chance to see you! It's all I ask for!" Wilson pleaded in agony.This man was usually far more powerful than the people around him, but having no power against the woman he loved most, he had to beg to save his chances of seeing her, even from a distance."What's the point of doing this?" Clara said, her voice surprisingly c

Clara's words were killing Wilson on the inside."Will you stop showing up when I date someone else? If that's the case, I'll find another man," Clara said.Wilson was a bit unsteady on his feet. What did she just say? Did she really just say that? Would she… "Do you hate me that much?" he said with difficulty, forcing the words through his throat. "It's not that I hate you, but every time I see you around me, it reminds me of my nightmares. Wilson, do you know? You're already a nightmare to me. And now, I just want to forget all about it," Clara stated.Wilson slowly loosened his grip on her wrist and finally let go. Despair rolled through him, showing in his eyes. He dissolved wordlessly as he lost his only hope.Nightmare? He never knew. It turned out that he was just a nightmare to her. When she saw him, all she could think of was the pain she had suffered in the past!Looking at the trace of indifference and coolness written all over Clara's face, Wilson had a sudden feel

The taste of bitterness filled his mouth. His lips parted, yet he suddenly had no clue about what to say. Perhaps there were simply no words left between the two of them because no matter what he said, she would just end up not being willing to hear it.Wilson watched quietly as Clara turned away from him and walked away. He watched as the distance between the two of them grew and grew till at last, she disappeared into the little shop.He remained standing at the same spot, all alone. All that was left on his handsome face was an expression of deep sorrow.- It had been a while since Serenity had returned to Solaria. She had worked with her mentor at his law firm back when she was still in Latveria, and now, she felt the urge to get back to work in her old profession again.Micah and Jackie were both taking hobby classes on the weekend, so Serenity took the opportunity to go shopping with Jackson at the nearby mall during the two hours when the kids were busy. At the same time,

Jackson, on the other hand, had long gotten used to people's stares whenever he was out in public, so he paid no attention to it at all and just leaned down toward Serenity as he asked her, "Which flavors do you want to try? How about we just order a couple of slices for every flavor they've got?""No," she refused, "Don't! That's just too wasteful!"Although she knew that he could easily afford to buy the entire cafe, she still wished that he would not throw his money away like that just because he was rich."I'll just have the dark chocolate cake," she told him. "What about you?""Any flavor will do," he replied, having no particular preferences in regard to cakes and desserts. The only reason he was here was to accompany her since she wanted to try them.Serenity knew that Jackson did not have a sweet tooth, so she chose the blueberry cake for him. They were then served the two slices of cake. Serenity picked up the dessert spoon and took a bite of the dark chocolate cake. It

“……” 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
