Wilson returned to his car and drove carefully away from the store and down the road. He caught a last glimpse of Clara in the rearview mirror and saw her smiling at Peter—a smile she had not given Wilson in years. Wilson withdrew his gaze, telling himself that it was best not to bother her anymore. When Clara was done with the inventory count, she looked up and realized that Wilson was not around. A strange disappointment filled her that Wilson was gone from the store. Did he leave? Why did he leave without saying a thing?"Hmm? Did Mr. Birch leave?" Peter's surprised voice rang from behind."Yeah, he left," Clara said."Are you and Mr. Birch now reconciled and back together?" Peter asked.Clara was startled and quickly denied it. "No, we're not back together. Things are still the same as before."Peter scratched the back of his head uneasily. "I thought you guys were back together. The way you were looking around for him… You seemed afraid that you couldn't find him. I tho

Jackson suddenly tightened his arms, hugging Serenity emotionally. Every time he looked at Wilson, he realized how lucky he was.Jackson stood by and watched Serenity's imprisonment even though he knew she was wrongly accused. If he had intervened, she would not have suffered so much in prison. But luckily, Serenity forgave him and was willing to be with him."Thank you," he said in a low whisper.Serenity let out a laugh. "What's wrong? Aren't we talking about Clara and Wilson? Why are you saying thanks suddenly?""Thanks for forgiving me. If you hadn't, I'd probably be more miserable than Wilson now," Jackson confessed.Serenity turned around, her eyes staring at him. "Jack, for me, this is the only way I'll truly be happy. Because no one else can love me like you do, and I love you as much as you do."After a short pause, she put her hand on his cheek. "Thank you for loving me so much."Serenity was glad Jackson had fallen in love with her. If he had not, maybe her fate would

Harvey would not stop beating Queenie, and not long after, purple bruises started to form under Harvey's harsh beating. "Harvey, listen to me…" Queenie begged, "I went to Wilson for the sake of your business… I did it for you…""Do you think I'm a fool? I know what you're thinking, Queenie," Harvey hissed. "Look at you. You were in prison, but you're living such a good life now. You should be glad I gave you all these things, and you're so lucky.""Since you're trying so hard to get Wilson to sleep with you, do it yourself. I can't keep an ambitious woman like you here! Also, I'm taking this house back. You have three days to leave!" Harvey was about to leave after telling Queenie this. Queenie was so shocked at the breakup. Ignoring the pain, she tried to hold Harvey back. She would have nothing after Harvey kicked her out."Harvey! Don't kick me out! I've been with you for so many years, and I'm really doing this for you. I won't go to Wilson anymore! I'll talk to Clara again

Three days later, Queenie came to visit Clara at her store again. Queenie was pale and bruised, and she looked haggard and tired. Clara stared at Queenie, dumbfounded at her appearance."What happened to you?" Clara asked.Queenie forced a smile. "Harvey did it. He was angry that I was useless and couldn't help him win the deal with Birch Group, so he beat me."Clara fell silent. Queenie had come to her before, hoping Clara would speak to Wilson to help Harvey in his business, but Clara had refused.Queenie studied Clara's reaction and pretended to be generous and easygoing. "Clara, don't take it to heart. It's not your fault. I fell in love with the wrong person. I didn't expect him to hurt me just because I couldn't help him win the project."After a short pause, Qunnie said, seemingly apologetic, "Sorry for what I said last time. Don't take it to heart! I was in a bad mood, and I was very rude. Now that I think of it, I'm glad I didn't help Harvey and his terrible friends win

"I'll be careful," Clara told Queenie."By the way, do you know about Mr. Brooks? During the White family's party, he was so rude to you. Now, he's in deep trouble. He's about to go bankrupt, and all his business is gone. He's looking for financing, but no one dares to lend him any money," Queenie mentioned suddenly.Clara listened quietly with no expression on her face.Queenie studied Clara's expression and said meaningfully, "Mr. Brooks is suddenly in such a bad situation just because he offended Wilson. Clara, you're so lucky to be married to a man like Wilson who even stood up for you. I'm so unlucky to have spent my youth with a heartless man like Harvey.""I'm sure you'll live a better life and meet someone you love eventually," Clara said."Really? Well… How about you introduce someone to me? I'm sure Wilson has a lot of young talents in his company. Why don't you help match me up with them, and if it works out, I'll always be grateful for your help," Queenie said with a l

Queenie got out of the car and returned to the church. Since the front passenger seat was occupied by Queenie's belongings, Clara stayed in the backseat. The door was closed, and the car keys were left in the car.As the scent inside the car grew stronger, Clara leaned back in the car and grew drowsy. It seemed to be the scent from the good luck charm Queenie had given her. Soon, she began to drift off to sleep.A few moments later, two men sneaked their way to the car. They casually opened the door, got inside, and drove off.When Queenie came out of the church, her car was gone from where she had parked it. She anxiously ran back to the church to ask. At last, she called the police. "Hello? Something terrible has happened! My car has disappeared, and my friend is still in the car! I tried to call her, but she was unreachable. Can you help me look for my friend and the car? The address is…" Queenie said, panic in her voice.After disconnecting the call to the police, she kept he

Queenie might have helped Clara in prison before, but she was now a manipulative and scheming liar. Clara visited the church with Queenie and went missing. Was it really just a pure coincidence?Just then, the door to the interview room opened, and Queenie walked out with red eyes. When she saw Wilson, she said remorsefully, "Mr. Birch, it's all my fault. I shouldn't have let Clara wait for me in the car. I was looking for my phone, and I didn't think the thieves would steal my car in broad daylight…"Wilson stared at Queenie with a cold composure on his face, and his cold gaze made a shiver run down Queenie's spine."Surely you should be blamed," Wilson said, his tone stone-cold. After that, he walked past Queenie and talked to the police officers about the case.Queenie shuddered, looking guilty. Mrs. Well misread Queenie's expression and thought she blamed herself for Clara's disappearance. "D-Don't mind Wilson," she comforted her, her eyes still red and teary. "He's just worr

Queenie would not be able to handle Wilson's revenge alone, not to mention the White and Valor family! For the first time, Queenie regretted what she had done to Clara. If she had to do it all over again, she probably would not use this plan against Clara!-When Clara regained consciousness, she found herself trapped in a room with a musty smell. She was tied up on the floor with ropes, her arms and legs restrained. Her eyes were blindfolded with a black cloth, so she had no way to distinguish between day and night.Clara could feel the concrete floor underneath her and hear two young men talking to each other, seemingly discussing something about her. The sound of her waking up stopped the men's conversation, and one of them said, "Oh, she's awake. Let's get to work now.""She's a little old. She must be in her thirties. It's such a waste," the other man answered."She may be in her thirties, but she's still pretty. It's a pity she has to be blindfolded. I'm interested in seeing

“……” 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
