And when she did, Harvey Powell would be nothing to her!Just then, the office door abruptly opened, and Wilson's secretary said, "Mr. Birch, your wife..."She froze mid-sentence. Following behind her was Clara. When Clara saw what was happening in the office, her eyes widened in shock, astonishment evident on her face.Queenie... and Wilson?! What are they doing...The sound of the door opening snapped Wilson back to reality. His gaze met Clara's shocked eyes. He was taken aback and instinctively tried to get up, but as he moved, he realized that Queenie was almost clinging onto him.He frowned and forcefully pushed Queenie away without any hesitation. Then, as if afraid that Clara would misunderstand, he quickly approached her and said, "Clara, it's not what you think. I... There's nothing going on between us. I just..."As the person in charge of a large corporation, he could remain fearless even when facing influential figures, but now, in front of the delicate woman carryi

Fear welled up within her. She felt as if Wilson had seen through all her intentions."Mr. Birch, I... I just..." Queenie stammered, attempting to explain, but Wilson ignored her completely and dashed out of the office.The secretary standing nearby looked at Queenie with disdainful eyes. She had seen many women like Queenie before. However, in her boss' eyes, the only woman who mattered was Mrs. Birch!Clara was currently standing outside the company, waiting for a taxi. After what she witnessed in Wilson's office, she couldn't help but feel like an idiot for coming here.If she had simply called him, she wouldn't have witnessed that.The suffocating sensation still lingered in her chest, as if trying to confirm something. But... it was something she didn't want to confirm!A taxi pulled up in front of her, and just as she was about to get in, someone grabbed the door. "Clara, wait, listen to me, it's really not what you think.""But I’m not thinking anything," Clara said. "I

Queenie was still in the office when Wilson returned. Summoning her courage, she approached him and said, "Mr. Birch, I believe there must be a misunderstanding between us. I came here today with good intentions. I didn’t mean to..."Before she could get close to Wilson, he slapped her across the face, sending her crashing to the ground."You didn’t mean to?" Wilson stared at her coldly. "Do you think I'm a fool? If it weren't for the fact that you've helped Clara before, I would have made you and the people backing you lose everything in Solaria for what you did today!"Queenie's body tensed up, feeling a searing pain on her face."Don’t let me see you again, you hear me? If I do, even if you've helped Clara before, I'm gonna make you suffer!" Wilson said coldly. "Also, if you dare tell anyone about what Clara went through in prison, I guarantee you won't be able to speak again."Queenie left Wilson's office trembling all over.Her heart was filled with fear. When Wilson warned

Mrs. Wells knew how much pain Clara had suffered. Although Wilson seemed pitiful, her daughter had endured much worse than him!"Okay, Mom. You should go to bed early," Clara said, ending the conversation.Clara watched her mom return to the room, and something cramped in her chest, so she crossed her arms against the chest. Finally, she lowered her gaze and let out a sigh. Ever since coming back, all she could think about was what she had seen in Wilson's office—the scene where Queenie was leaning against Wilson. Her logical brain knew something was strange about what she had seen, but she could not push away the emotions she felt witnessing it. Clara knew Queenie had no interaction with Wilson before, but what was with the pang in her chest? She had almost impulsively tried to run to them and pull them apart. What was wrong with her? She should not have cared!Her marriage to Wilson was nothing more than a marriage of convenience. A divorce was agreed upon at the time of the m

Wilson shifted his gaze and glanced at his son. "Well… Come, Yanny. Let's go.""Dad." Yannick hesitated for a moment before he called out to Wilson. Although it was just a word, it brought a smile to Wilson's face, and his eyes moistened. Wilson knew he should be content with this. He had done so many things wrong, but Yanny was still willing to call him Dad again. Clara watched the father and son interact, and the faintest glimmer of emotion flickered in her gaze.When the three arrived at Yannick's school, the school was bustling and filled with a crowd of happy parents and children. While the school event was going on, the parents accompanied their children to their respective classes.Each class would run a themed activity, and the parents and children would participate together. One of the classes had a haunted house, so the parents and children would act as ghosts and monsters in the decorated classroom with special sound and lighting effects.Some classes hosted an escap

For the class event, Clara chose a simple vintage dress that fit right over her clothes. Meanwhile, Wilson decided to wear a military uniform from the early 20th century. Clara was instantly charmed by Wilson's new look. It was her first time seeing Wilson in uniform. She never knew he would look so stunning in a military uniform!The people around them gasped, especially the children. Some of the women were surprised by Wilson's look too. The girls in Yannick's class were already about ten years old. Most of them were into the latest celebrities, and they all stared at Wilson in starstruck awe. Some of them even took out their phone and took pictures of Wilson.Wilson did not mind at all. He did what was asked of him and began to serve as a waiter. Thanks to Wilson, the beverages store's business in the morning was great. Many parents and students from other classes came over, hoping Wilson would serve them. Yannick's homeroom teacher could not resist taking a picture of Wilson

With her head down, Clara could not see what Wilson was doing. It made her very nervous, but she had no idea why she felt this way.Wilson gently untangled her hair from the button. He was strangely grateful—and just as strangely happy—that someone came up with the idea of dressing up for the school event. Her hair got tangled, so he could openly be close to her again. She was so quiet in his arms, and it was rare for her to stay so close without her pushing him away.This special moment reminded him of the past. When Clara was in love with him, she loved leaning into his arms and speaking to him in a soft voice."Wilson, you know what? I feel so safe in your arms. It feels like I don't have to be afraid of anything in your embrace, even if the sky is falling."But in fact, he was the reason that caused her world to come crashing down! As Wilson thought of that, the light in his eyes dimmed. He could not provide her any sense of security. All he gave to her was fear. Wilson haste

Since Caden was studying in the school, it meant Serenity and Jackson would naturally participate in the school event.After a while, Clara finally found Serenity and Jackson accompanying their son Caden. The items Caden had put up for sale were all sold out, so Caden stood with Cynthia and followed her around.Yara and Logan Jenkins were also there, busy taking care of Cynthia and Caden. However, Clara knew the couple's true colors and never liked them.Serenity was surprised to see Wilson accompanying Clara at the school event. After exchanging greetings, Serenity pulled Clara aside and spoke to her in a whisper. "That's rare. I didn't expect Wilson to come with you.""I don't want Yanny to have regrets. If I'm the only one who ever accompanies Yanny to school events, the gossip will always be there," Clara explained. She did not want the unwanted gossip to cause more harm to her son."Why did you bring Wilson along? Just for Yanny?" Serenity asked.Clara pursed her lips, and s

“……” 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
