My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 1650
"What?" Monica could hardly believe her ears.Didn't Terry plan all this to take the Hart family down? Why would he give the Hart family a chance?"I can lend the Hart family a sum of money, enough to keep the Sunshine City project alive during this crisis," Terry said.Monica's heart sank. In other words, the Harts would only be able to retain the Sunshine City project?That would mean that the Harts would fall out of the ranks of the prestigious families! They would be stripped of all their other assets!But... if they had the Sunshine City project, they still had a glimmer of hope to make a comeback!"Why would you do that? What's your goal?!" Monica asked. She believed that Terry must have an ulterior motive."My goal is to annul our engagement," Terry said.Monica scoffed. "Annul our engagement? Surely you can easily do that yourself after the Hart family crumbles?""I want you to personally tell the media that we've agreed to annul our engagement. You should clear Lisa's

Monica thought Terry had no one else to rely on in his desperate moments but her. She had the power to decide. Choosing Terry meant giving Terry a future!When Terry needed the Hart family's help, Monica had promised Terry to save Lisa, but with a condition. She wanted Terry to break up with Lisa and be with her. Terry had never set his heart on Monica. Perhaps that was what made her want to conquer this man even more. For the first time, Monica felt jealous of Lisa. Jealous of the woman who had always occupied Terry's heart.Just as Terry was about to leave, Monica suddenly raised her voice. "Terry, do you really think you can be with Lisa again? You lost your chance five years ago!"Terry heard what Monica had said, but he never stopped walking. It was as if her words had not affected him in any way.Monica waited until Terry disappeared from sight and finally collapsed to the ground. Feeling weak, she thought about her family. Even though the Hart family might survive this ti

Terry looked out the window, staring at the floor where Lisa temporarily lived. Lisa must be at home right now. What was she doing at the moment? Would she resent him for putting her in such a difficult situation?"Mr. White, you're not going up?" the driver asked, feeling that it was rather peculiar. "No. I'm staying here for a while," Terry answered in a murmur, staring out the window in the same posture. He just needed to wait one more day and clear Lisa's name!-The next day, Monica Hart's secret affair broke the news. Monica had been secretly dating a mystery man for several years, and this man was a former nightclub dancer. After hooking up with Monica, he had become Monica's kept man, living the high life in Solaria. He lived in one of Monica's luxury villas and had servants following him whenever he traveled. The reporter claimed to have been following Monica for years and had many photos of Monica and her secret lover. The reporter had released some online, naturally.

The latest breaking news about Terry and Monica's engagement came the next day. The White and Hart family officially broke off the engagement, and many were shocked that the engagement was canceled so quickly. They expected this to happen, but they expected it to happen much later.Monica held a press conference that afternoon to explain the situation. "Mr. White and I broke up a long time ago. I'm dating the man you saw in the news, but my parents disapproved of him. I approached Mr. White for help, asking him to continue pretending to be dating me. I needed his help to keep my boyfriend a secret from my parents.""I hope I can change my parents' minds during this time, and Mr. White is willing to help because my boyfriend and I are genuinely in love.""My selfishness has caused the White family trouble. Mr. White and I were going to call off our engagement after some time, but my parents announced the engagement without our knowledge.""I didn't expect a situation like this. I ap

Terry and Monica had broken up long ago, which meant Lisa was not Terry's affair partner."I think so," Mr. Quest said. "Well, that should be the end of it. Let's ask the bodyguard when we can go back."Feeling a little bothered, Mrs. Quest could not help but think out loud. "So, Terry broke up with Monica a long time ago? If that's the case, is Terry still in love with Lisa? Oh, Lisa. How about you and Terry…"Lisa quickly interrupted, putting an end to her mother's thoughts. "Mom, didn't I tell you before? We can't go back anymore, so stop thinking about it!"Mrs. Quest sighed. Although she was angry at Terry for abandoning Lisa then, she was still quite fond of Terry. Besides, Lisa had not been dating for the past five years, and Terry seemed to be still interested in Lisa. "Hey! What's so good about Terry? When Lisa was severely hurt, he left Lisa for his own good. He's successful now, but we're not interested in him!" Mr. Quest complained, raising his voice. "Lisa is my prec
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 1655
It was a strange feeling to see Terry at this hour. Lisa had just seen the news online and watched his new video during the day. She did not expect to see him show up so suddenly, still wearing the same navy blue suit and black shirt, his hair slicked back neatly. He was still wearing the same look from the interview earlier.Neither of them spoke as they stared at each other in silence. After a long silence, Lisa blinked her eyes. She said to Terry, "Umm… It's late.""I know." His magnetic baritone sounded in the room.'He knows? Then why is he here at such a late hour?!' Lisa thought and realized that this was technically not her room. The whole apartment belonged to Terry."What brings you here so late?" Lisa asked after a moment's hesitation."I wanted to see you," Terry answered. He felt happy just sitting next to her and quietly watching her sleep.Lisa was sleeping in her usual and ugly sleeping posture, occasionally grinding her teeth in her sleep. Watching her roll aroun

Terry got closer to the bed, suddenly leaning forward and propping himself against her with his hands at her sides. "Lisa, I've never treated you as someone who would come and go as I feel like it," Terry said, his face dangerously close to Lisa's. Terry had never taken Lisa lightly. She had always been the love of his life!Lisa stared blankly at Terry as he gave her a level stare, his gaze burning with love. Lisa almost fell for his captivating eyes again. His deep and beautiful eyes enchanted her for a moment. Realizing what had just happened, Lisa tried to back away in embarrassment, but she was already leaning against the bed head with no room to retreat. Terry inched closer, putting his face close to her. "Lisa, do you know how much I've missed you?" he rasped, his low and husky voice seducing Lisa's mind.Lisa turned away, refusing to meet Terry's eyes. Afraid of losing control and falling for this man again, she could not look at him at such a close distance.Terry s

Terry's face paled in an instant. Lisa's clear voice had always been his favorite tone. He always dreamed of listening to her voice again, but the voice he yearned for spoke the cruelest words to him."You really… Don't love me anymore?" Terry almost strained his voice as he forced the words to come out of his mouth. "I don't love you anymore. If I did, I wouldn't have gone on a blind date and started dating again," Lisa said."When we were dating, I loved you with all my heart. But we broke up. I want a clean breakup, not dragging things out!""Clean breakup?" Terry laughed bitterly. Lisa wanted a clean break, but she had no idea what had happened five years ago. What Monica had done, and what he had sacrificed for her. "What's wrong with that?" Lisa questioned."You don't love me anymore. Do you love Gale?" Terry asked, but he answered himself before she could even answer. "No, you don't love him. If you loved him, you wouldn't have reacted like how you did the last time I ki

“……” 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
