"Okay," Jackson replied in a flat voice as his gaze shifted toward the ten men in the room.Those men had learned from Mr. Jones earlier of Serenity's identity, so as soon as they heard her call the man who had just entered 'Jack', they instantly knew who he was.Mr. Valor! The man rarely ever appeared in the media in Solaria. It was even hard to find any information about him or pictures of him online. Yet now… they got to meet the man in person!"Have you been drinking with them here all along?" asked Jackson, his voice tinged with a certain emotion. The men in the room were all wearing different styles of clothes, and they all looked different, yet they were all pretty good-looking, more than handsome enough to attract women.Serenity shuddered. She sensed the jealousy in his voice, so she hastily explained, "I… I've just been accompanying Lisa to cheer her up, that's all. Besides, I didn't drink that much at all."She had only drunk a few glasses of wine. It was Lisa who had d

"No!" Lisa still protested. "I… I'll go back on my own… you don't… you don't need to send me home… I don't want to be the third wheel!""How can I let you go home on your own when you're this drunk?!" argued Serenity."Don't worry… I… I'll ask my friend to pick me up… Gale… Gale Porter…"As Lisa garbled her words, she pulled out her phone and dialed a number. The call went through, and when it was answered, Serenity was just about to take the phone and explain the current circumstances to Gale Porter, but she was startled when she heard the voice coming from the other end of the line."Lisa? Is that you, Lisa?"It was Terry White's voice! Serenity was bewildered. Did Lisa just… call Terry White?"I… I'm not looking for you, Terry! I'm trying to call… Gale Porter… Where's Gale? Let… Let Gale speak to me…""Gale Porter?" It sounded as if Terry had just uttered the name through gritted teeth. "Are you drunk, Lisa?""Yeah… That's right! I drank so much today! Also… I'm with so many

"Also," the staff member added, "it looks like it has something to do with Mrs. Valor's friend… I mean Miss Quest, because Mr. White just asked which room Mrs. Valor is in."Hearing this, Mr. Jones's heart sank. In the next moment, he noticed a tall figure walking toward him, and it really was… Terry White!'Good lord!' he silently bemoaned. "What's happening today? How did I get so 'lucky'?!'Terry walked up to the door, glanced at Mr. Jones, and asked, "Are they still inside?"Mr. Jones hastily replied, "Yes, yes, they're still inside."Terry opened the door and saw Lisa playing boxing with a group of men while Serenity was sitting beside her and Jackson was at the other end of the sofa.The sight of Jackson there surprised Terry, but he could easily tell that Lisa must have drunk a lot. The empty bottles of wine all over the floor confirmed his guess. The men were instantly relieved the moment they saw Terry entering the room. They were glad that someone had come to pick up

"Wait, Jack! But Lisa's still in there…""Terry's here," said Jackson. "He'll take her home. There's nothing to worry about.""But…""Or do you want to stay here so you can touch Terry's face and find out if it's as nice as Lisa claimed?"Jackson raised his eyes and glanced at Serenity."No!" she hastily replied."Then let's go home now."Meanwhile, Terry pulled Lisa's hands down, bent down, and without saying a word, scooped her up into his arms before striding out of the room."Wait!" Lisa protested, struggling to get down from Terry's arms. "I… I don't want to go yet! I want to drink more! I want to play boxing with them, and I… I want to see them dance…""Fine," said Terry coldly. "Then I'll drink with you, play boxing with you, and dance for you!""You…" Lisa tilted her head dazedly, almost as if still thinking about what he had just said. Nevertheless, she stopped struggling and quietly stayed in his arms.Terry then strode out of the room with Lisa in her arms. He sto

Terry was caught off guard. He lost his balance, and his whole body was pulled into the car in the backseat, falling right on top of Lisa's body.The smell of alcohol mixed with her own unique scent filled his nose, intoxicating him."Terry…" she murmured. "Why… Why did you have to come back into my life?"His body stiffened. She could not have known how much of a torture it was to be this close to her and to have her hold him like this. Still… he had no desire to push her away. He wanted her to keep on holding him like this. No matter how painful it was, he knew that he could endure it if he was with her."Because I miss you too much," he told her in a soft voice. He knew that it did not matter what he said to her right now because she would forget all of it once she sobered up. Still, he could not help but answer her question anyway."You miss me… too much?""Yes, I miss you too much…""But… don't you know how much I want to… move on from you?"Her voice was choked, and by th

However... when she kissed him like that, all his self-control crumbled. Even the pain his body was experiencing seemed not to matter anymore.He loved her so, so much. There was no way he could take his love back!He couldn't take her home now. Terry took a deep breath and straightened his clothes, then sat back in the driver's seat and restarted the car.The black car slowly left the residential area, as if it were never there.Half an hour later, Terry's car arrived at his mansion in Solaria. He carefully carried her into the mansion and laid her down on his bed.She was sound asleep with a little smile on her face, seemingly dreaming of something wonderful.Was he in her dream, he wondered."Lisa, am I still… the person you love?" Terry murmured softly.As long as she still loved him, he would fight for their future with everything he had. No matter the difficulties, he would find a solution.All he needed from her was the motivation to give it his all!The night was sile

"Since you're awake, go freshen up. There's a change of clothes for you in the bathroom. Once you're ready, come down for breakfast," he said.His gentle voice brought her back to her senses."But... last night, how did I... end up with you?" Lisa stuttered.Terry raised the corners of his lips in a mocking smile. "You always have these blackout moments when you drink. You don't remember anything that happened last night, do you?"Lisa bit her lower lip and looked at him with big, round eyes. She seemed pitiful and vulnerable when she did that."If I told you that, I wanted to take you home last night, but you kissed me and, just like in the past, promised me a bunch of things, would you believe me?" he said."No way!" she blurted out.With his eyes fixed on her, he walked over to the bed and leaned down, moving his face very close to hers. "Why not? Which part was it that you think you wouldn't do when you’re drunk, kissing me or making me promises?"She fell silent."Lisa Qu
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 1729
"What happened after I got drunk last night?" Lisa asked Serenity."Yesterday, Jack and I wanted to take you home, but you insisted on calling Gale Porter. But in the end, you ended up calling Terry White instead, and then... well, he came and said he would take you home," Serenity roughly explained the events that took place yesterday to Lisa.The more Lisa listened, the more dumbfounded she became... It was so... embarrassing! She actually called Terry! And she... she even hugged Terry in public and flirted with him?!Indeed, getting drunk would only lead to trouble! Every time she drank alcohol and ran into Terry, they would get tangled up.Of course, the one who made the first move was always her. She was always the one who took advantage of Terry!"Lisa, are you alright? Did Terry take you home safely yesterday?" Serenity asked.Lisa could only give a vague reply, "I'm fine. Err, I'll tell you about it later." After that, she quickly ended the call.Lisa then called home,

“……” 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! The

"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
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 3369
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
