"I-I'm not crying," Fred said, turning his head away in embarrassment."But your eyes are so red," Jacqueline pointed out, moving her body to where Fred had turned his face. Jacqueline reached out her hand to wipe his tears, and her sudden actions caught Fred completely off guard.Jacqueline felt a wetness on her finger and said, "Look! Your tears!" she exclaimed, licking the tears away from her fingers. "Eek! It's salty!"Fred's face flushed redder, not sure how to react."Why are you crying?" Jacqueline put her face closer to his. "Because your mom's gone?" She had heard from Mommy and Daddy that Fred's mother had died in prison. His mom had died… That meant he would never see his mom again! That was what she had seen on TV!Fred tensed at Jacqueline's question and said nothing."If my mom's gone, I'll be crying too. I'll cry for many days!" Jacqueline said with a serious face. "I won't laugh if you cry!""I won't cry," Fred said after a short silence.Jacqueline blinked and

Fred was stunned. He had already eaten the chocolate like Jackie told him to. Why was she crying?"Why? Why are you crying?" he asked as he swallowed the chocolate."Because… Because Fred, your mom is gone..." Jacqueline choked with sobs. "You must be… Sad… B-But the chocolates I've brought won't cheer you up... What can I do to cheer you up...?"Fred was a little confused. Did Jackie want to make him happy that much?"It doesn't matter… Anyway, I'll be alone from now on," Fred muttered."It matters! It's important!" Jacqueline said, bursting into tears. "Besides, you aren't alone. We'll always be together… Always… Wahhh!" Jacqueline suddenly hugged him and cried even louder.Fred had a strange feeling. He should be the sad one, but Jackie was the one crying out loud instead. She was crying in his arms, but it somehow made him feel warmer than earlier. It was less cold than being alone in bed.Emotions were contagious, like a cold. As if infected with Jackie's sadness, Fred star

Jenny's parents would take care of Jenny's cremation here in Solaria. It was clear that Mr. and Mrs. Hall did not want to take in their grandson. They were already old and not doing so well, thus, raising another child would make things even harder for them.

It was as if Fred did not exist.Zeke was still hospitalized. His life was saved, but he was suffering from the side effects of the treatment, his body constantly in excruciating pain.

"Why do you want to spend more time with me?" Fred asked, looking at the little girl standing in front of him."Because I like you! I want to spend more time with you," Jacqueline replied."Just because I can play the piano?" Fred asked."Well…" Jacqueline had a thoughtful look on her face. "I do like you because you play the piano well, but it's not just that… There are other kids who play the piano well too, but I don't like them as much.""What if you don't like me as much one day? Would you want to be with me less?" the boy asked in a low voice. He masked his feelings, not showing any expression on his face, but his wringing hands gave away his nervousness."There's no way I don't like Fred!" Jacqueline spoke with certainty, "I said I'd always be with you, so you have to stay with me!" Always? How long would this last? Fred pondered. "Come! I'll play a new song for you!" Jacqueline said, dragging Fred to the main building again. Fred did not resist this time and followed J

There was still some time left until Lisa's appointment, so she and Terry sat and waited in the waiting hall."Are you really okay?" Lisa asked Terry, who seemed very tired at the moment."Yeah, I'm fine," Terry told Lisa."But you don't look too well," Lisa said as she habitually reached for his forehead, but his face changed instantly, and he pushed Lisa's hand away.Lisa was stunned for a moment, her hand still frozen in mid-air. Terry seemed to be stunned as well. "I… I'm not feeling well. Don't touch me," he said weakly. Her touch was too much for him to accept right now.Lisa bit her lip, feeling a little embarrassed. "Okay, I understand," she said, taking back her hand. She sat upright and deliberately distanced herself from him.Terry gaped at Lisa as if to explain something, but in the end, no words came out of him. Terry had to wait until the Blood Parasite was completely removed before telling her everything.When it was Lisa's turn, Lisa walked into the consulting ro

Lisa did not understand what Terry was thinking. Sometimes, he acted like he cared so much about her and wanted to be with her again, but just now, he seemed to be resisting her.Terry could not even stand her touch. If that was the case, why would he accompany her to the maternity checkup? Or… Was all he cared about the child in her belly? Without the baby, maybe he would not have bothered to see her again.Lisa smiled bitterly. Since when was she such a sentimental person? She even felt some sort of attachment to the life in her belly, hesitant about ending the unplanned pregnancy.When the car stopped, Lisa snapped back to her senses and realized she had arrived at her destination. She turned to Terry and saw that he was asleep, leaning against the back of the seat.Terry slept with fatigue shown across his face. His long eyelashes threw a shadow on his cheeks, and he even had bags under his eyes. It was obvious he had not been sleeping well. A few strands of loose hair fell in

"Just a week, Lisa. I just need you to give me another week," Terry pleaded.Lisa became upset. "What do you want? You keep asking me to give you time and won't talk about the damages from the accident. When we meet a week later, are you going to ask me to give you a couple more weeks?""Lisa, I..." Terry tried to say something, but a voice suddenly rose, interrupting him."Why are you two together?!"Lisa winced as she recognized the voice. That was her dad's voice!Lisa turned around and found her parents standing not far away, staring at them in surprise. Her mom even had a basket of vegetables in her hand. It seemed her parents had just returned from grocery shopping."Lisa, you said you had to go out this morning. Were you with Terry?" Hersha questioned.Lisa blinked, not knowing how to explain things to her mom."Tell me. You went out with him early in the morning. What did you do with him?"Lisa remained silent, troubled by her mom's question. How could she tell them th

"Mom, did you look through my drawer?" Lisa shouted.Hersha shot her daughter a glare. "I was looking for nail clippers, and guess what I found? I thought you were taking some kind of messy weight-loss pills, but it turns out they're for women who are pregnant or trying to conceive!"Lisa bit her lip, suddenly not daring to speak."Lisa, you... why are you taking this? Or is it that you..." Hersha seemed hesitant to continue.On the other hand, Austin yelled, "Just be honest! Are you pregnant with Terry's kid?!"Lisa recently had random bouts of nausea. She had also stopped hanging out with Gale and only considered him a friend. Moreover, Terry had brought Lisa home today, and she also received a pile of deliveries previously...With all the evidence piling up, Austin's suspicions grew stronger by the moment!Lisa was almost tempted to kneel before her father in fear.It was just a box of folic acid, and he guessed it all!Seeing her daughter's expression, Austin knew he had h

“……” 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
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
