Chapter 1910

Author: Anastasia Marie
Serenity still felt pain wherever she was hit. She did not know how many punches had landed on Lisa, but she saw Lisa panting heavily, her face bruised and swollen, and one of her eyes could hardly open. She could only protect Lisa's belly but not the rest of her body.

Even though Serenity hated this man for beating them up, she hid her anger and said calmly, "Yes. I can guarantee it!"

"Don't listen to her! You'll regret listening to her! The only way we can escape is to press them! We can't stop here!" Monica yelled urgently, fearing the mercenaries would turn against her. She had paid so much to hire them!

Just then, another voice rose. "If you let my wife and her friend go, I can assure you that everything will be fine. But if you don't stop here, you’d better be ready to die here today!"

Everyone was startled by the sudden voice. They turned to the voice, only to see many people rushing in from the only doorway leading down from the rooftop, blocking the only exit. And Jackson

    The atmosphere in the room shifted as the tension rose. The look on the mercenaries' faces changed. They wanted to restrain Monica and stop her. After all, Serenity was their best bet to save their lives and get the money!But Monica would not let the men get to her and dragged Serenity closer to the edge of the rooftop. "If anyone comes closer, I'll kill her. I'm going to die, anyway, but it's worth dragging Mrs. Valor to die with me. I just wonder if Mr. Valor would give up your wife!" Jackson glared at Monica. "Well, you can try and see if I'm willing to give her up," he said as he strode to Monica, his eyes cold like ice daggers ready to kill.As Jackson approached, Monica's expression flickered with wariness. "Don't come any closer! Or I'll kill her!" As her voice trailed off, she drew her dagger and made a bloody mark on Serenity's neck. Serenity whimpered in pain, crimson blood dripping down from the wound on her neck, staining her clothes. The expression in Jackson's ey

    Serenity gritted her teeth and endured the pain. She did not want her enemies to gloat over her suffering or let those who cared about her be worried about her either. But the more she endured, Monica dug her nails at the wound harder, causing a pain greater than the pain she felt when the dagger cut her. "Serenity, aren't you proud of yourself? Aren't you going to be the savior and save your best friend? Now, do you understand the price you have to pay?" Monica hissed viciously.Serenity was in a constant cold sweat, her face frighteningly pale as she bled. Lisa saw her friend in pain, and tears filled her eyes. "Monica! Serenity has nothing to do with this! She's just helping me! You should be dealing with me, so come at me! Torture me all you want, but don't you ever hurt her again—!"Lisa's pain made Monica laugh. "Want me to let her go? Oh, sure. Jump down the roof, and I'll forget all about our grudges and let her go!"Lisa trembled, resolute not to let Monica hurt Serenit

    Serenity realized that Monica had no desire to escape. Her behavior was like the violent acts of unhinged minds. Or maybe she was searching for another way to escape. Jackson gave Monica a cold look. "Strip naked?""Yeah. Start taking off your clothes until you're naked. Why don't you take a selfie? Post it on the internet later. If it gets more than 10,000 likes in a minute, maybe I'll let Serenity go," Monica said, her proposal a complete humiliation to Jackson! She was just treating Jackson like a fool!"No, Jack!" Serenity protested through the pain. Blood continued to trickle down the wound on her neck, and she watched in horror as Jackson began to do as told.There was a loud silence with nothing but the helicopter blade whirring above them. Jackson unbuttoned his shirt, revealing the thin sweatshirt underneath. After unbuttoning all the buttons, he removed his shirt. Jackson's men watched as he took his shirt off and moved to his belt."Jack! Stop… She's just playing wi

    Among the five helicopters that had been hovering around the roof, one had its cabin door open. A man in a police uniform pointed a sniper's rifle at Monica, ready to aim at her again. One gunshot might not be fatal enough to kill her.Serenity saw Monica twitching on the ground. She figured Monica would probably not survive, but her face changed as she saw a device roll out of Monica's pocket.The device looked like a kind of remote control to toggle the countdown. The countdown continued from 8...7...6… It was a timer! What was this timer for? Was Monica touching the timer in her pocket earlier?Serenity had a bad feeling, but by then, Monica could no longer speak. She was dead, and her body stopped moving and twitching.Jackson strode toward Serenity, taking her by the arm. "Let's go! I'll take you to the hospital!" he said, wanting to bend down and pick her up."Jack, the timer..." Serenity could not finish her sentence. There was an explosion, and the whole building began to

    Jackson's presence put Serenity at ease. She did not have to worry about anything with him around."You saved me again, Jack," Serenity muttered. "Just now, if Monica… If she wasn't distracted… You weren't going to strip naked, were you?" It hurt whenever she spoke a word, but she could not help asking.Jackson's eyes darkened, and he gazed down at her. "What if I say yes? If she wasn't distracted, I'd have continued to strip. She had your life in her hands. If I can't find a way to take her down, I'll do everything she says, even if it means humiliating myself!" Serenity stared at Jackson in shock. Would a proud man like him do this much for her?"What, you don't believe me? Don't believe I'd go this far?" Jackson asked.Serenity shook her head. "I-Its not that...""Believe it or not, it doesn't matter anymore. I'd do anything to save you," Jackson whispered. "What about you? If one day I'm in danger, would you risk everything to save me?" Jackson muttered softly, almost as tho

    Serenity had betrayed him and run away from him. She claimed to love him but only married him for the children. Even though he would never be the most important person to her… It was all insignificant compared to the possibility of her leaving.Jackson suddenly thought he could tolerate anything else except letting her leave him! Not in any way! Serenity did not have the strength to climb the ladder, and he could not pull her up with just one arm. Swallowing the bitterness burning in her throat, she smiled, hoping she would escape this tragedy. But looking at the situation, she—One would always make choices in life. Maybe she would have to trade off her life for him to live, just like how she had made her choice five years ago and chosen to crash into the sea. The sound of explosions rang again. Jackson sank lower, the ground beneath him starting to collapse."Mr. Valor! The ground is about to collapse!" Someone shouted anxiously from the helicopter's hatch.Serenity knew she

    Serenity watched Jackson's painful expression. He even knocked his head against the cracked ground, as if trying to stop his pain with such a painful method.But contrary to Jackson's words, Serenity didn't tighten her grip on his hand. Instead, she loosened her hand. In an instant, her delicate wrist slid slowly down between his fingers."Serenity, don't!" Jackson screamed frantically, tears now streaming down his face at some unknown point.His tears dripped onto her face...!The warmth made her feel like sacrificing everything for this man wouldn't matter, and she wouldn't regret it if she did. Because in this world, there would never be another person who loved her like he did.Similarly... "Jack, I'm sorry... for hurting you, but in this world, I must be the woman who loves you the most... Live well, you... you must live well..."She loved him so deeply. She loved him so much that even if she had to make the same choice again, she would.As the explosion sounded once agai

    “……” 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
