His lips moved even closer to hers. Their lips were almost touching by now.Serenity could not help but blush. "Don't..." she said in a panic.He stopped and stared at her fixedly. "Then how about you tell me how you met him.""A thief stole his bracelet. The thief then bumped into me and the bracelet fell into my pocket. Lucas Gomez asked for it back from me. That's how I met him," Serenity said in a hurry."Really?" he asked, "How many times have you met him?"She didn't count! But seeing Jackson's face moving closer, Serenity quickly counted and answered, "Four... Four times. After the incident, he bought me dinner to thank me for the bracelet. Then I ran into him at the hospital my grandmother was staying in. And then I met him again on the set today."His eyes gleamed. Based on his understanding of Lucas, if Lucas merely wanted to thank her for the bracelet, he could have just paid her. He did not have to buy her dinner.In other words, Lucas already had his eye on her back

"Mmh..." Serenity reflexively tried to push him away with her right hand, and when he grabbed it, she tried to do the same with her left hand.When his fingers pressed down on her left hand, she inhaled sharply and instinctively opened her mouth to cry out in pain, but that allowed him to kiss her even deeper.She could hardly breathe.She had no idea how much time had passed before he finally ended the kiss and let go of her hands.He had a hand on her waist while his other hand gently held up her left hand. "Did I hurt you, Sis?"Serenity bit her lip and glared at Jackson. "Why did you do that?""Because I don't like it when you say something I don't want to hear," he chuckled softly, as if he had a gentle personality, "If you plan to say it again, I don't mind kissing you one more time.""......" She did not say anything, afraid that he would really do it.Jackson lowered his head and carefully inspected the swelling on the back of Serenity's hand. "Your injury will probably

In fact, he did not even want her to bring the clothes, but she said, "I'm used to wearing my own clothes. They're more comfortable."Therefore, he said no more and let her bring them.After she finished packing, Serenity wanted to carry the luggage, but Jackson picked it up first and said, "Let me do it."They walked out of the rental house with Serenity following close behind Jackson.Sometimes, she found him very unpredictable. One second, he would look very gentle, as if he would be treating her very well, but the next second, he would look like he was about to send her to hell.Now that she was going to the Valor Residence, their relationship would become even more unclear.When would she finally be able to cut all ties with him? Must she wait until he got bored of her? She stared at his back. Her eyes fell on the scarf he was wearing around his neck.It was the scarf she knitted for him, which was made of old wool. She never expected him to wear the scarf and gloves she kn

Mr. Knot looked thoughtfully at Serenity while trying hard to suppress his astonishment.Serenity greeted him, "Nice to meet you, Mr. Knot.""Miss Lewis, if you need anything, feel free to call for me," Mr. Knot told her with a smile."Just call me Serenity," she said. Miss Lewis sounded awkward to her."You're the young master's guest. Of course I have to call you Miss Lewis," said Mr. Knot, as if these manners were very important to him.Serenity did not insist. She would not be staying for long anyway."Mr. Knot, take her to the guest rooms and let her pick a room that she likes," instructed Jackson."I'm fine with any room," said Serenity."Uhh..." Mr. Knot turned to Jackson."In that case, take her to the attached room on the third floor," said Jackson indifferently."Very well, Mr. Valor," Mr. Knot answered.Serenity was puzzled. What's an attached room? But Mr. Knot was already leading her to the third floor, so she did not ask.When they reached the third floor, Mr.

Serenity wandered to the bedside table absentmindedly while she pondered. When her eyes fell on the photo frame on the table, she immediately froze. Her almond-shaped eyes widened in shock.It was a photo of her!The problem was, she did not remember ever taking that picture. In the picture, she wasn't even looking at the camera.Who took the picture? Why was there a picture of her here? And who lived in this room?...*Click*Someone opened the door. Serenity looked up and saw that it was Jackson."Looks like you already found out that the two rooms are connected. Saves me the explanation," Jackson walked forward with a smile. His eyes fell on the photo frame Serenity was holding. "What do you think of the picture?""Why is there a picture of me here?" she asked."I asked someone to take it," he said. He took the photo frame from her hand and put it back on the bedside table. "I miss you dearly when I can't see you."That last part sounded very suggestive.She shivered and su

Shouldn't she be afraid of him? He was a man who could easily cause her pain and humiliation. With a single word, he could make her life hell.So why would she lose control of herself whenever he moved close to her and whispered in her ear?He was not a man she could handle. Even though he called her Sis, she knew she was just a pawn to him – a pawn that he played with because he was bored!In the other room, Jackson picked up the picture on the bedside table and stared at the person in the picture. Her almond-shaped eyes were looking ahead and there was a little smile on her face.The serenity and tranquility on her delicate face gave off a comfortable feeling.Whenever she looked at him with that smile, he would feel like he had obtained something that he did not even know existed in the past."Sis," Jackson softly whispered. His fingers brushed the lips of the person in the picture. Then, as if he could no longer hold himself back, he kissed the person in the picture.Just no

It was only a little past 5 am. A normal household would not have breakfast this early."From now on, breakfast will be served according to your work hours. You'll definitely get to have breakfast before going to work every day," said Jackson. He led Serenity to the dining table and gently pressed down on her shoulders to make her sit down.Serenity did so obediently. There was a rich variety of food on the table. She had a glass of milk, a bowl of congee, and a few pastries.It was a much more sumptuous breakfast than the $2 buns she usually bought in the morning.It also made her even more aware that she was truly living in the Valor Residence now and not in that tiny rental house."I'll ask my driver to drive you to the sanitation office," said Jackson."No, it's fine. I'll just take the bus," Serenity quickly refused."The sanitation office is pretty far away. You'll have to change buses twice. You're gonna be late." He looked at her calmly, as if he was sure she would relen

"So far, no one has been able to find out what brand the scarf and gloves are. Some people say they might be hand-knitted and custom-made by a famous designer."Serenity sweated profusely while listening to her co-workers' discussion. She wondered how they would feel if they knew that she was the one who knitted the scarf and gloves.When Xyla saw Jackson Valor's scarf and gloves on their co-worker's phone, she could not help wondering, "Those gloves look a lot like the pair you were knitting before, Serenity."After all, not only did Xyla see Serenity knit those gloves, Serenity would even ask Xyla for advice whenever she encountered a problem while knitting. Xyla naturally remembered what the gloves looked like.But Xyla's words were immediately met with ridicule by their co-workers."Xyla, how would Serenity's gloves end up on Jackson Valor's hands?""Even if Jackson Valor's gloves are hand-knitted, they must have been made by a famous designer. There's no way he would wear a

“……” 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

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
