My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 1770
As he kissed her, all the things Lucas said to him once again filled his head.He had never felt guilty about getting what he wanted through dirty tricks. Even his grandfather used to teach him to get what he wanted through all means necessary. The ends always justified the means for him, and back then, he did indeed get what he desired.Yet now, he was terrified that she might find out how despicable he had been in the past. She had been so disgusted with him when she learned that he had done nothing to help her back when she was thrown in jail, so he wondered anxiously how she would feel if she found out about his other unsavory deeds.Guilt had never been a part of his vocabulary before, yet now, it engulfed him and was eating him up from the inside."Serenity…" he murmured her name after the kiss ended. "Everything I've done was done because I love you too much.""What's wrong?" she asked. "Why are you saying that all of a sudden?""No reason." His eyelashes trembled slightly

"Jack, I've already forgiven you!"She spoke earnestly, desperately trying to ease his feelings of regret, guilt, pain, and remorse… was this not the exact reason why she did not tell him about the true state of her hands?"I've truly forgiven you," she added, "so stop blaming yourself like this!"He stared at her, stunned. He was struck by how serious she was in telling him that she had forgiven him, yet his heart still felt so heavy."You didn't even know me back then," she continued, "and I was nothing but a stranger who meant nothing to you at the time."In that case… Would she forgive him for what he had done after having known her? She had no idea that Lynette Blossom would never have had the chance to pretend to be her without his secret help. If he had not done all that, Lucas would never have fallen for Lynette's lies and misunderstood Serenity, which meant that Lucas would have jumped in and helped her with Lisa's medical expenses!And that meant that Serenity would nev

If Lucas had promised her too quickly and too readily, Jenny would have hesitated and doubted him, but after hearing that Lucas's promise came with a condition, she felt much more assured that he would keep his word."Fine," she said. "I'll tell you what happened and how Serenity fell into the sea. But I must warn you… Lucas, I'm afraid that you might wish you’d never found out the truth once you hear it."His expression turned stone cold as he listened to Jenny recounting what had happened in the past."I hope that you'll keep the promise you gave me, Lucas Gomez."All her life, Jenny never felt like she owed anyone anything. Sure, she might have caused her sister's death, Zeke's heavy injuries, and her parents' misery, but she had never felt sorry for any of that.If her parents had not favored her sister over her, she would not have had the heart to kill her own sister. As for Zeke, if he had shown more sincerity toward her back then when she was in trouble, she would never hav

Lucas returned to his car. He looked out at the dark night outside the window and could not help but chuckle wryly.So that was the truth behind the supposed accident! Serenity had chosen to jump into the sea–and it was all for Jackson!She loved him so deeply… So deeply that she would sacrifice her own life, along with that of her three children, just to save Jackson, even though she had risked her own life to carry the triplets in her belly, so there was no denying how much she loved her children.Nevertheless… the one she loved most was still Jackson Valor!— Caden finally woke up, and Serenity, accompanied by Jackson, went to visit him at the hospital where he was staying. Cynthia was with the boy in his room. She was the only person from the Jenkins family that Jackson allowed to come to visit Caden at the hospital. Meanwhile, the rest of the Jenkins completely regretted how they had treated Caden when they found out that the boy was the Valor family's missing child. If on

"But I don't like them," said Caden."Why not?" asked Cynthia. "They're good people!""But they'll separate me from you, won't they? I might not get to live with you anymore! I don't like them, and I don't want them to be my Daddy and Mommy!"As Caden spoke, he reached out both of his arms and hugged Cynthia, burying his little face in her chest. He was clearly very attached to her. And now, he was back to being an obedient little kitty.Cynthia looked sad when she heard what Caden had said. She turned to Jackson and Serenity and asked, "Are you really going to take Caden away, Uncle Jackson, Aunt Serenity?""Caden is our son," replied Jackson. "Naturally, he'll come back to our family and live with us, but if you'd like to meet each other, you can always come and visit.""I don't want to live with you!" argued Caden. "I just want to live with Sis!"The boy then hugged Cynthia a little tighter now, and the look he gave Jackson and Serenity was even more full of hostility. To him

"Also," Jackson added, "make sure you cough up every penny you got paid for taking my son in! If you pay even one penny less than what you got, I'm sure you can imagine what kind of consequences you'll suffer!"After speaking, he quickly led Serenity away from there.Logan and Yara were then left there stupefied.They had expected to get on the Valors' good side, but now, it seemed that they needed to somehow cough up the money to pay them. How ridiculous!When Serenity and Jackson got back to Valor Residence, Mr. Knot came up to them and informed them, "Miss Jacqueline would not let anyone take that child away. She even handcuffed herself to him and flushed the key down the toilet!""That child?" Serenity asked, startled. "What child?""Jenny Hall's son," replied Jackson.Jenny Hall's son? Serenity immediately realized that it was the boy who was the very talented pianist at the exhibition. But still…"How did he end up being with Jackie? And what is he doing here in Valor Res
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 1776
As for the question of when they could visit Caden…"Caden will come home once he gets out of the hospital, so you'll both see him then.""Okay!" Jackie replied. "I'll definitely be a good big sister!"She had decided that she would much prefer being a big sister!Just then, Fred, who had been silent all this time, suddenly asked, "Will my mommy go to jail?"The sound of his innocent voice asking such a question suddenly turned the atmosphere gloomy and serious. Serenity turned to the boy. There had indeed been too many grievances between herself and Jenny Hall, yet this child was innocent."The judge will decide on the matter," she explained, not having the heart to be too bluntly honest."Okay," responded Fred. His head then drooped down, and he said nothing more afterward."Come on," Jackson reminded Serenity, "it's time to go back to the hospital. If you're away from the hospital for too long, the monitoring of your hands' condition will be interrupted, and it might affect

When Jackson entered the room, he found Jacqueline and Fred on the bed. Fred appeared to be fast asleep, while Jackie was engrossed in a fairy tale book, playfully pretending to tell a story. Nearby, a maid dutifully attended to their needs.Spotting Jackson, the maid promptly stood up. "You may go now," Jackson told the maid. Respectfully acknowledging his request, the maid quietly exited the room."Daddy?" Jacqueline looked at Jackson with confusion. The butler told her that Daddy would stay at the hospital for a few days to keep Mommy company. Why did he come home?"Were you telling Fred a story?" Jackson asked gently, shedding his cold and distant demeanor in front of his daughter. In front of her, he was just an ordinary father."Yes!" Jacqueline replied, her voice quieter than usual because she didn't want to wake Fred up. "He couldn't fall asleep, so I thought I'd tell him a story. Whenever I can't sleep, Mommy always tells me stories to help me sleep."Jacqueline paused fo

“……” 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

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
