"Serenity was pregnant with triplets. She hasn’t found one of her children yet. By mere chance, I found out where that child is!" Jenny said. "If we kidnap that child, we'll have the ransom for Fred, and more. We won't have to live such miserable lives anymore!"Zeke looked at Jenny in shock. He did not expect her to come up with such an idea. "Kidnap? Are you telling me to kidnap a child? Jenny, that's a serious crime! If you know who their child is, why don't you just sell them the information for $150,000? They'll surely agree to it!""Have you forgotten that I'm a wanted fugitive? If I show up, even if they give us $150,000 to rescue Fred, I'll be caught and thrown in jail! Zeke, Fred is still so young. Can you bear to see him grow up without a mother?""I..." Zeke didn't know what to say."We can only use that child to save Fred! It's the only way! Besides, do you really want to continue living in this miserable state? Your mother and your sister are suffering. Once we have mo

Even though Micah was puzzled, he didn't ask further. However, the grandmother he had never seen still piqued his curiosity. Now that Jacqueline was asking Serenity about it, Micah also looked at Serenity expectantly.Serenity pondered for a moment and said, "Your grandmother... well, Mommy doesn't know where she is. She left home one day and never came back. Maybe she got lost."She could only reveal this much for now. She didn't want the children to be exposed to the darkness and reality of the adult world too early.Jacqueline immediately became anxious. "Grandma got lost? Then we have to find Grandma! We can't leave her all alone outside!"As the little girl spoke, tears welled up in her eyes. Serenity gently touched her daughter's head and said, "Okay, Daddy and Mommy will find Grandma."In fact, she knew that Jackson had been searching for his mother's whereabouts over the years. However... that woman seemed to have disappeared without a trace, as if she had gone with the wi

The hair was for the Valor family to conduct a DNA test so that they knew the note was telling the truth.Serenity's heart sank, and Mr. Knot asked nervously, "Madam, do you think it's real?""I... I don't know. I'll have to call Jack! And Mr. Knot, please prepare the car. I need to go out right away," Serenity instructed."Yes, Madam" Mr. Knot replied.The two children approached Serenity curiously. Jacqueline still looked confused and didn't quite understand, but Micah obviously understood. His little face was tense."Mommy, have you found our little brother?" Micah asked, automatically assuming the lost child was his younger brother."Maybe," Serenity said. "Mommy needs to go out for a while. You and Jackie stay home, okay?""Will our little brother be safe?""He will. Mommy will make sure of that!" Serenity reassured him.Serenity told the driver to head to Caden's house. Along the way, she called Jackson and gave him a brief account of the situation. Jackson said, "Don't

However, this sympathy had now turned into intense pain. When the car arrived at the apartment building where the Jenkins family lived, Serenity nearly jumped out of the car as she rushed towards the stairs.The Jenkins family lived in an old building that had no elevator, only stairs. They lived on the fifth floor. As Serenity dashed to the fifth floor, she heard yelling voices coming from one of the households."Kidnapped? Who would kidnap an orphan? What would anyone gain from kidnapping that kid? You're just conspiring with that brat to trick us to get your hands on your father's money, aren't you? Listen here, you little brat, that money belongs to your father and I. It'll never be yours!"The soundproofing in this old building was not that good, so Serenity could hear the sharp and mocking voice of Yara Jenkins, Caden's foster mother, very clearly."I saw someone drag Caden into a car with my own eyes! Caden was kidnapped!" came the anxious and worried voice of Cynthia Jenkin
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 1749
But the expected pain did not arrive. Instead, Serenity heard Yara's cry of anguish, "My arm... my arm’s gonna break..."Logan Jenkins came out of the house at that moment and saw a strange man gripping his wife's arm tightly, while his wife's face turned red like a pig's liver as she cried out in pain."Who... who are you people? Let my wife go!" Logan screamed.But the stranger holding Yara's arm remained unmoved, completely ignoring Logan. He looked at the handsome man standing next to him, as if he was waiting for that man's orders.The handsome man was dressed in a neat suit, looking elegant yet stern. Logan naturally realized that was the person in charge. He said to the man, "Release my wife immediately or I'm gonna call the cops.""Go ahead," Jackson said as he gave Logan a chilling glare, and that glare gave Logan a sense of fear and trepidation.Serenity was surprised to see Jackson arrive so quickly. Her eyes instantly turned teary. "Jack... Caden really was kidnapped!

The crowd around them dispersed, and he heard the sound of footsteps going down the stairs. The doors of all the neighboring apartments in the hallway were tightly shut. Soon, not a single one of his neighbors remained in the corridor."Who... who are you people?" Logan asked with a trembling voice.Looking at Logan coldly, Jackson said, "I'm Caden's father, Jackson Valor!"Logan and Yara were shaken to the core!The ordinary apartment building was tightly surrounded by a group of people wearing black suits. Downstairs, the onlookers discussed and speculated about what was happening.On the fifth floor where the Jenkins family lived, it was eerily quiet. There was a bodyguard standing at almost every stairs, yet no one made a sound. If anyone were to pass by at this moment, they would probably think that something big was happening.In the Jenkins' living room, Yara was in excruciating pain, but she didn't dare make a sound lest she angered the man sitting on the couch.Who cou

"Will the kidnappers want a lot of money? On TV shows, kidnappers always ask for money when they kidnap somebody, so… Will you have enough money? If you don't, I'll give you all my money. I still have the inheritance from my mom. I'll talk to the lawyer. If he can give it to me in advance, I can save Caden," Cynthia spoke up, timidly and naive. "Do you know who they are? They've got so much money and don't care about your money! Caden is lucky to have them as his parents!"Cynthia ignored Yara and focused on Serenity. She did not know who Jackson was or how much power the Valor family had in Solaria, but she knew they were the only ones who would save Caden!"We'll prepare the money. Cynthia, don't worry," Serenity promised, pulling Cynthia into her arms. Cynthia's words made her feel like crying. "I'm sorry… I-I didn't protect Caden well!" Cynthia sobbed. She had been acting strong against her stepmother, holding back her fear and sadness. With Serenity's promise, Cynthia could

It was late at night. Jackson was at the detention center, waiting in the dimly lit visiting room with only a yellow lamp glowing in the dark.A guard brought Walter to the dimly lit room, and Jackson sat in the chair, staring at Walter with cold eyes. The guard who had brought Walter left the room and closed the door, leaving Walter and Jackson alone.Jackson began to speak. "You knew I was coming.""I didn't know. But since you're here, you must have questions for me," Walter replied with a small smile.Jackson stared straight at Walter, getting right to the point. "You knew that Caden is my child. Who else knew?" Anyone would have felt pressured by Jackson's sharp gaze, but Walter looked nonchalant. "I don't know what you're talking about, Mr. Valor." "You don't understand?" Jackson got up and strode to Walter, grabbing him by the face and slamming him to the table. He messed Walter up pretty badly. "Caden is my son. Who else knew? What was your purpose when you took Caden

“……” 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
