My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 1887
The doctor confirmed that Fred's injuries were superficial, and they would not leave any permanent marks on his face. He was given some ointment for the injuries.Serenity was initially worried that a five-year-old child might not understand how to apply the ointment and might accidentally eat it, so she kept the ointment and planned to apply it for Fred herself every day.However, that evening, her daughter came and asked her for the ointment. "Mommy, I'll help Fred apply the ointment."Serenity raised an eyebrow. "Do you know how to do it?""Of course!" The little girl nodded vigorously. "I'm not a child anymore!"It was quite amusing to hear a five-year-old child declare that she wasn't a child anymore. But Serenity also knew that Fred was always guarded and tense around her. Every time she approached him, she could feel the tension in his body.After thinking for a moment, Serenity handed the ointment to her daughter. "Then go and apply it for Fred. But remember, the ointment

"My mother tried to hurt your mother and your brother. Maybe, one day, I might try to hurt you too," Fred said, with a rare expression of self-doubt on his face. In front of other people, no matter how harshly he was bullied, he never showed any sense of inferiority. He would only feel inferior in front of her."Why would you hurt me?" Jacqueline blinked innocently.Their eyes met. She was like a pampered little princess, free of worries. He should be hating her for making him stay in the worst place possible for him, and for treating him like a mere toy.But he couldn't bring himself to dislike her. In fact, he wanted to stay with her."They say my mother hurt your family, so I'll definitely hurt you too one day," he explained. The children in kindergarten were not the only ones who said this. The servants in the Valor family frequently whispered it behind closed doors too."You're not gonna hurt me!" Jacqueline vehemently refuted without hesitation."How can you be so sure?" He

"Madam, you should go and see for yourself if Master Jackson is there," Mr. Knot suggested."Mr. Knot, thank you!" Serenity replied, suddenly standing up and rushing to the door."Madam, you're going now?" Mr. Knot exclaimed, surprised. "It's already so late. Why not go tomorrow...""I want to see Jack right now!" Serenity insisted, unable to contain her eagerness. She wanted to see him so badly."In that case, I'll ask the driver to take you there," Mr. Knot quickly offered.A few minutes later, a black car slowly drove away from the Valor Residence. Serenity prayed in silence, hoping that Jackson was really at the old mansion.The past few days had been agonizing for her. Every day felt like torture, with her mind constantly replaying the conversations and scenes at the highway entrance and the memorial hall.He said he would never forgive her.When he said those words, it felt as if there was no emotion behind them, like he was just stating a fact. But every time Serenity re

Connor, of course, knew that Mr. Valor was still angry with Serenity. For the past few days, Mr. Valor had been working from the mansion and hadn't gone to the company. But it didn't prevent the people in the company from feeling like they were walking on thin ice.In just a few days’ time, three high-level executives had been fired. Who knew how many more would be laid off if Mr. Valor remained angry.Many people had come to Connor in the last few days, asking him about the sudden layoffs. What was he supposed to tell them? Never in a million years would he dare to say that it was because Mr. Valor was fighting with his wife!Fortunately, Serenity had finally found them. The only person who could anger Mr. Valor to this extent was Serenity, and she's also the only person who could calm him down!Connor quickly went to the pond. Jackson was currently standing by the pond, quietly watching the carefully-cultivated lotuses.It wasn't the season for lotus flowers to bloom, yet the on

Fifteen minutes later, Serenity sat down outside the gate, enjoying the breakfast brought by the security guard – bread, oat porridge, and some side dishes. This was the breakfast they were having in the mansion today. The guard had managed to secure an extra portion for her from the kitchen, a task he claimed was quite challenging."Madam, why don't you go home? Mr. Valor must know by now that you've been waiting here all night, yet he hasn't let you in. I don't think this is gonna work. Why not go back and wait at home? Mr. Valor will see you when he wants to see you," the security guard kindly suggested.Serenity shook her head while taking a bite of the breakfast. "No, I'll wait."She had a feeling that if she gave up and left, she might never get another chance to see him!Therefore, what she had to do now was conserve her energy and avoid passing out from exhaustion. If she couldn't see him today, she might ask Mr. Knot to send her a tent so that she could set it up outside

But despite her choking, she refused to let go of his wrist, fearing that if she released him, he would go inside and leave her on the other side of the gate, unable to see him anymore.Jackson lowered his gaze, looking at her hand that was tightly gripping his wrist, slightly deformed from the pressure. Then his eyes shifted to her flushed face, still red from choking. The light in his eyes flickered."You don't have to grab me like this. Since I've decided to see you, of course I'll talk things out with you," Jackson said coldly.Serenity, finally recovering from her bout of choking, looked up at Jackson. Her eyes shimmered with the tears from the coughing. "Then... let's talk inside."However, she still refused to let go.He pursed his lips, choosing to remain silent, and simply walked back inside. Serenity quickly followed after him.Only when the two were out of sight did the security guard at the gate finally let out a long sigh of relief. Finally, she's gone!But the way

Jackson's eyes flickered, his gaze growing even deeper. "Do you want to divorce me?" he asked.Her heart pounded fiercely. She had a feeling that if she were to answer "yes", he might truly divorce her."I will not divorce you!" she declared firmly. "Unless you come to hate me intensely or fall in love with someone else – only then will I consider a divorce!"He sneered, "Is it because of the children?"She froze, feeling the mockery and self-mockery in his eyes pierce her heart. "It's not because of the children, it's because I love you!" She wanted to spend the rest of her life with him! She didn't want a divorce!"You love me?" The mockery in his eyes grew stronger. "Yes, you love me, but not that much. Your love for me can't compare to the affection you have for your mentor's wife, whom you've known for only a few years, and it certainly can't compare to the trust you have in Lucas! For that woman, you can betray me, and you can seek help from Lucas' contact behind my back. Do

Serenity took a deep breath, preparing to get on her knees. But before her knees could touch the ground, he rushed towards her, grabbing her arm and forcefully lifting her up."Serenity, how dare you..." His lips quivered as he glared at her with anger. How could she do this?! How could she kneel before him?"Jack, you can't bear not forgiving me, can you?" Serenity tightly held onto Jackson with her other hand. She knew her actions were somewhat despicable, using such a tactic to make him forgive her and keep him by her side!But she couldn't bear the thought of losing him, of never seeing him again!Jackson stood still, unable to refute her words.Yes, he couldn't bear it!She saw right through him and knew that he couldn't let her go, and she ruthlessly exploited that!Was this what they call a weakness? She really was his weakness. Even after she hurt him, he couldn't even remain indifferent towards her!Jackson lowered his head, looking at Serenity. "You want me to forgive

“……” 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
