“Renee is the future heir of the White family. Of course, they would like to get on our good side and get their son to marry Renee in the future,” Terry said. “Are you sure that you want to let Renee inherit the White family in the future? What if she doesn’t know anything about business? Aren't you afraid that she’ll be the downfall of the Whites?” “It’s fine as long as she is happy.” Lisa was flabbergasted. Terry was talking as if he was giving a toy, not a huge conglomerate to Renee. “Should we have a few more kids? Then, we can choose the most suitable one as your future heir.” Lisa thought that it would be great to have a few more choices. “No way!” Terry’s expression changed abruptly when he heard her. Lisa was surprised at his reaction. “Why not? Didn't you use to think it was good to have more children?” Terry pulled Lisa into his embrace, and people began looking sideways at them as they were standing in the middle of the banquet hall. “Hey, there are still peo

Lisa hugged Terry and patted him gently to comfort him. “Don’t be afraid. I’ll always be with you. You know that I never break my promises.” “Are you guys going to hug each other forever?” Someone teased them. Lisa quickly pulled away from Terry and blushed when she noticed that Serenity and the others were looking at them. Serenity noticed Lisa’s slightly reddened eyes and pulled her away to the lounge. “Come on, let me show you what I’ve gotten for Renee.” Jackson, who was standing at the side, walked up to Terry. “I’m afraid that the embrace can prove that the rumors were false. So many were enviously talking about your good relationship with Lisa.” Terry didn’t explain that the embrace was not for the sake of proving the rumors false. He did that subconsciously as he was scared that Lisa might get pregnant again. “What will you do if Serenity gets pregnant again?” Terry suddenly asked. As far as he knew, Serenity also went through a difficult labor when she gave birth to

She actually wanted more children because she believed that having more children would make their house more lively, but if it had to come at the price of Terry living in fear for a long period of time, then... perhaps having just one was good enough."Terry's love for you is true, Lisa. You chose the right man," Serenity said."Absolutely!" Lisa smiled. "He's done so much for me. I'll cherish him forever."While they conversed, a commotion abruptly erupted outside. Lisa remarked with a frown, "What's happening outside?""Let's go and find out," Serenity suggested.They exited the lounge and witnessed a group of individuals carrying multiple boxes into the banquet hall. Leading the group was the young boy from the Wood family called Morgan Wood, accompanied by the middle-aged man named Strickland.Everyone in the banquet hall looked on with surprise, wondering who the boy was. Some astute observers noticed that the boxes being brought in were made of the finest sandalwood and int

Morgan gazed at Riley, who was peacefully sleeping in the cradle, and a satisfied smile appeared on his young face. It was the first time that the triplets and Yanny had seen Morgan. Jacqueline asked Morgan curiously, "What's a betrothal?" The concept of a "betrothal" was completely unfamiliar to her.Morgan simply shrugged, showing little interest in responding.Yanny was the one who answered Jacqueline's question. "It's a tradition where a man presents gifts to the woman's family to express his intention to marry her. If the woman's family accepts the gifts, it signifies their willingness to marry their daughter to the man."Although Yanny was only in third grade, he liked to read, so he knew a lot of things.Jacqueline listened intently but still didn't quite get it. She knew about marriage. Mommy and Daddy, for example, were married. It meant they could have babies and be together forever.Just then, Riley woke up and started crying because she was hungry.Morgan reached ou

Martin's expression turned bitter as he said, "But... all the people who used to have business dealings with us suddenly stopped working with us. When I asked them why, they simply said that I offended someone I shouldn't have."Wilson responded calmly, "I see. You must have offended a lot of people, Mr. Brooks."Martin was left speechless. He was indeed an arrogant person and had offended numerous people before. However, with his family's wealth and connections in the underworld, he could usually handle the consequences. But this time, he had offended Wilson Birch, someone his family couldn't easily deal with.Initially, he had thought that Clara was just Wilson's side piece. Even though she was pregnant, he still didn't think she was someone that important to Wilson. He had humiliated Clara, and Wilson later humiliated him in return. He thought they were even after that.He thought that was the end of it, but to his surprise, after that incident, many of his family's businesses s

Wilson's icy gaze bore into Martin, his anger palpable as if he wished to freeze Martin to death with his eyes."Make a scene?" Without hesitation, Wilson struck Martin with a powerful punch, sending Martin crashing to the ground.The sudden altercation caught the attention of the departing guests. They started murmuring among themselves.While Martin was struggling to climb back up, Wilson seized his collar and almost lifted him off the ground. Wilson threatened, "Mark my word, if you hurt Clara, I'll make the Brooks family disappear from Solaria!"Martin seethed with anger and humiliation. He couldn't believe that this was what he got after he had humbled himself.Realizing that Wilson had no intention to let the Brooks family go, Martin bellowed defiantly, "Fine, Wilson Birch! I tried to show you respect, but you don't seem to appreciate it! Listen up, everyone! This woman next to Wilson Birch is his lover, and she's an ex-convict! She’s pregnant with Wilson Birch's baby, but h

Martin, who's collar was still being gripped by Wilson, immediately recognized who Serenity was. Desperate to avoid conflicts with the Valor family, he continued to sling mud at Clara, trying to redirect the Valor family's anger towards her instead of himself. He knew that if he offended the Valor family too, then he's done for!However, Martin's hopes were shattered when Wilson said, "Clara is my wife. I will never have another wife in my life. Who are you to judge her? You'll pay for everything you said!" Wilson forcefully threw Martin to the ground and looked down on him.Martin shivered. He could hardly believe his ears.Clara Wells... was actually Wilson Birch's wife?! They're... actually married?!Wilson had even gone so far as to declare in front of all these people that he would never have another wife in his life!But Queenie had told him that Clara was just the owner of a tiny convenient store, living in a small room behind her store. How could she be Wilson Birch's wife
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 2238
Now that Serenity had taken control over the situation, no one would dare speak of the incident to avoid offending the influential Valor family. There would be no gossip or news related to the incident online.Wilson asked his driver to drive Clara, her mother, and Yanny back to the convenience store, while he followed behind in his own car.After he watched them enter the store, Wilson remained parked nearby, his gaze fixed on the lights inside.In the past, he enjoyed being in this spot, watching the lights inside the store. It made him feel a sense of closeness to Clara. If he was lucky, he might even catch a glimpse of her taking out the trash.But now, he couldn't even stay in this spot anymore because he would scare her if he got too close. He had promised to keep his distance.He already felt immensely lucky because he got to see her and be in her presence tonight.Suddenly, the door of the convenience store opened, and Yanny ran outside.Yanny ran to Wilson’s car and gen

“……” 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
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
