“Mr. White was worried that you might not be safe alone, so he sent us to protect you from the shadows,” one of the bodyguards said. Lisa and Serenity caught the attention of the people around them. “Hey, isn’t she the one who had an affair with the CEO of White Maple Group? She even made it to the trending page because of her pregnancy!” Someone shouted suddenly. Lisa’s photos and videos taken by the news media had been posted online when Gale’s post was trending previously. Even though Terry had it deleted, many people had already seen it. It was not surprising that Lisa would be recognized in this way.Many people looked at them and started talking about it once they heard the voice.Terry frowned when he received a call from his men. “Alright, I’ll come over now.” After hanging up the phone, he told the people in the video conference, “You guys continue with the meeting, my secretary will take notes on my side.”Terry left immediately, and the people in the video conferenc
The CEO of the White Maple Group had announced that Lisa was pregnant with their future heir, and it was the talk of the town. It would be a misfortune to the film crew if something happened to Lisa’s baby. They didn’t expect another handsome man to come along with Terry. The bodyguards, who noticed Jackson, immediately greeted him loudly. “Good afternoon, Mr. Valor.” It was rare for people to get greeted respectfully like that in Solaria. The film crew looked at the aristocrat before them, and they immediately thought of a person. ’Jackson Valor?!’After hearing Serenity call him ’Jack’, the crowd was certain of their guesses. Jackson approached Serenity and asked. “Did you get hurt? You can just let me know if you really want any autographs.”“I’m fine. Someone merely bumped into me,” Serenity said and smiled. “I only discovered that the web drama I’m following is filming here today. I’ve already gotten an autograph and a photo with them.”“You’ve been following a dr
“Nothing besides a handshake and taking a few pictures together. They say that I’m welcome to visit anytime,” Lisa said innocently. The director hurriedly came forward with the male leads and introduced themselves. “It’s our honor that Ms. Quest and Mrs. Valor like the drama so much. We’ll definitely work hard to film the second season.”It was a big surprise for them to be favored by Lisa and Serenity. The crew could use another connection to help them if they had any trouble with filming in the future. “Both of you can come and visit us anytime. I can give you a more detailed shooting schedule,” the director said. “An even more detailed schedule?” Lisa’s eyes lit up.“That’s right…” However, his words were stuck in his throat when he noticed Terry glaring at him. “Well, it’s almost noon now. Let’s have lunch first,” Terry said.“I would like to go to the restroom first,” Lisa said. “I’ll go with her.” Serenity didn’t feel good about letting Lisa go to the restroom alon
Seeing the confident smile on Lisa's face, Serenity felt relieved. "I was worried that you would be hurt by what they said. By the way, have you and Terry discussed marriage yet?""We haven't talked about it, but..." Lisa smiled, "I know Terry loves me and only me. He has never loved another woman. That’s why I don’t care when we’ll get married. It’s fine as long as we continue to love each other.""But...""Besides, I'm pregnant right now. I don't want to have a wedding with a big belly! I want to wear a beautiful wedding dress!" Lisa joked.Serenity thus refrained from saying anything further.For lunch, the four of them went to a nearby restaurant, where they reserved a private room for themselves.Lisa scrolled through the photos they had just taken with the lead actors on her phone and said to Serenity, "After I develop the photos, I'll give you a copy.""Sure," Serenity readily agreed."Sure?" Jackson raised an eyebrow, looking at his wife. "You want to keep the photos in
Lisa's face flushed with awkwardness. "J...Just kidding.""Just kidding?" Terry adjusted his tie. "Then why don't you tell us how attractive you find the two actors?"Lisa was at a loss for words. She felt like whatever she said now would be a mistake.Serenity swiftly intervened, attempting to diffuse the tension. "Alright, let's order food first. We're all hungry, especially Lisa!""Yes, let's order!" Lisa agreed.The two women took the menu and leaned in close to each other to make their choice, while the two men kept their gazes fixed on their respective partners, each sporting a different expression.Soon, the dishes that Lisa and Serenity ordered arrived one after another.The four of them started eating, but halfway through the meal, Jackson suddenly asked, "Why do women enjoy watching shows where two men fall in love?"Huh?!Lisa and Serenity exchanged glances, and ultimately, Serenity responded, "It's not that we especially enjoy those types of shows. It just so happe
"Really?" Jackson's gaze shifted back to Serenity, who was still staring at him in a daze. "Have you had enough too, or do you want more? I can make it even more pleasing to the eye for you.""No, it's enough, it's enough," Serenity quickly responded, feeling slightly embarrassed. So, Jackson was still jealous?!It seemed she would have to properly comfort Jackson when they got home later.Jackson patted Terry's shoulder and sat back down in his chair.Terry looked at Jackson thoughtfully, then turned to Lisa, who was looking worried. "What's the matter? I thought you enjoy watching that kind of thing."Lisa rolled her eyes. "That doesn't mean I like watching you and another man..." She paused and added, "If I hadn't pulled you away just now, you two would have kissed.""So what?" Terry asked. If the person he kissed wasn't her, it would just be normal, meaningless physical contact to him.Lisa's jaw dropped. "No, you can't! You're absolutely not allowed to kiss anyone other tha
He gently flicked his finger on Lisa's forehead and chided her, "What the heck are you thinking about? How could I possibly fall for Jackson? You're the only one I would ever fall for!"Looks like Lisa had gotten nervous because of what Jackson did. Terry contemplated whether he should thank Jackson for that.With a sense of relief, Lisa closed her eyes and drifted off to sleep.Terry stole a glance at her peaceful face and shifted his focus back to driving.As they continued their journey, Terry couldn't help but think that it was time to seriously think about marriage. He wanted Lisa to formally become his wife and the mistress of the White family!Meanwhile, in Jackson’s car, Serenity asked Jackson, "If Lisa hadn't intervened earlier, would you actually have kissed Terry?"Raising an eyebrow, Jackson countered, "What about you? Did you want to see me kiss him?"Serenity quickly responded, "Of course not! You're my husband. How could I possibly want to see you kiss him?"Jac
"Is it too sudden?" His gaze shifted to her visibly swollen belly. It wasn’t as sudden as her getting pregnant though. Their marriage was already overdue!Lisa realized that too and awkwardly smiled. She said, "Why are you suddenly thinking about getting married..."But before she could finish her sentence, she recalled something and asked, "Did Serenity tell you about what happened in the bathroom? Don't worry about it. The women who said that I'm only useful for reproduction and that you're not interested in me were just gossiping. I don’t care. There's no need to rush into marriage because of that."Terry's expression turned cold. "What? Someone badmouthed you like that earlier?""Huh? You didn't know?" Lisa was taken aback.Terry's face hardened. Although Serenity had mentioned that people were gossiping about Lisa, he hadn't expected their words to be so hurtful. And here she was, casually smiling and reassuring him that she didn't care.Terry suddenly embraced Lisa. "I want
