My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 2424
The woman was petrified when she heard the crowd murmuring. She had offended someone powerful today. No one like Wilson dared to speak to Lucas coldly like that. Meanwhile, outside the bar, Lucas looked at Wilson, who was walking toward his car. “Why don’t you get into my car? I’ll send you back. You shouldn’t drive as you’re injured.” “No thanks,” Wilson refused while he opened the car door. Suddenly, he paused and asked Lucas, “You love Serenity a lot, don't you?” Lucas’s expression changed. “When did you start being so nosy?” Wilson continued to ask, “If it's possible to hypnotize you into forgetting your feelings for her, would you be willing to do so?” “What are you trying to say?” “There’s a kind of hypnosis that can make your feelings fade away without losing your memories. Everything will look like a movie to you. You will no longer feel any joys or sorrows toward the memories. Would you go through such a hypnosis?” Wilson asked. “No way. How could I live well i

‘How could I live well if my precious feelings for the one I love faded away?’Lucas’s words were right. Although Wilson didn’t feel hurt anymore, he felt empty, almost as if he had lost something important. Clara was resting on the couch when Wilson returned. She hadn’t turned off the lights yet. “Hey, you’re back.” She was startled when she saw Wilson’s bruised face. She quickly moved closer to him to inspect his injuries. “What happened to your face?! Did you drink?” Wilson reeked of alcohol. “Yeah, a little. Why don’t you go to bed first while I wash up,” Wilson said and took a new set of clothes from the closet before stepping into the shower.The warm water that trickled down his body made his wounds sting. ‘Do I regret it?’ Wilson asked himself as he put his hand over his heart. The emptiness in his heart was so vivid. Clara wasn’t asleep yet when Wilson came out from the bathroom. She was still sitting on the couch with a first-aid kit on the coffee table in f

“I’ll do it myself,” Wilson said. “What about your back? You can’t reach it, right?” Clara said and quickly added, “I ask Yanny to take off his clothes for me to apply medication when he’s injured too. You guys are the same in my eyes.” Clara said that to make the atmosphere less awkward, but she failed badly. Wilson stared at her and asked, “Is that so?” “Uh… yeah.” ‘At least they are the same gender.’ Clara didn’t say that out loud. Wilson removed his bathrobe to reveal his torso. “Are we that similar?” He asked. He didn’t know why he did that. He just didn’t want Clara to think that. He wondered if she saw him as her husband and if would she feel anything to see his upper body naked. All Clara could see was the bruises all over his body. Fortunately, he wasn’t badly injured although it was a fierce fight. Clara quickly applied the ointment on Wilson’s back and his chest. She moved closer to him subconsciously as she was applying the ointment on his chest. Wil

“I’m not in love with you. I’ll pay extra attention in the future,” Clara murmured as she lowered her eyes. Wilson released his grip on her hand. “Don’t do something that will make others misunderstand in the future.” Then, he put the bathrobe back on and left. He felt a familiar sharp pang in his chest when he stood up. It felt the same when Clara had said that she didn't love him. Wilson wondered why it hurt so much as he had forgotten his feelings for her. ‘Why?’He clenched his fist and repeatedly asked himself in his mind. However, he couldn’t get an answer. -Serenity and Jackson brought the three kids out to the famous tourist sites in Lanford since Fred had told Jacqueline that she hadn’t visited quite a lot of places yet.Serenity suddenly noticed that Micah looked like a third-wheeler among her kids. Jacqueline had Fred, and Caden had Cynthia as their childhood sweetheart. “Why are you spacing out?” Jackson asked. They were on a boat, and the kids were lo
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 2428
Although Serenity couldn’t see Jackson’s expression in this position, she could tell that he was mindful of her answer. Serenity pondered momentarily and answered, “Maybe.” “I thought you'd say no.” “I didn’t want to lie to you since we made a promise to be honest with each other.” Jackson tightened his embrace. “It’d be nice if I was your childhood sweetheart. If only I could have met you a little earlier…” “I would still fall in love with you even if I had a childhood sweetheart,” Serenity said. “Really? You’re not saying that just to cheer me up?” Jackson asked. Serenity smiled and cupped his face. “I just said that I wouldn’t lie to you! But that being said, I wish I could have met you sooner too. You must have been cute when you were a kid.” Jackson’s ears reddened. Only Serenity would dare to describe him as cute. Just then, Serenity’s phone rang. It was an unknown number, but she heard Lucas’s voice when she picked up the phone. “Is this Serenity? I have a

“They should be okay with all these bodyguards. Never mind. I’ll call Weston and ask him to take care of the kids,” Jackson said and called Weston on his phone. Serenity was at a loss for words. “I know something about Summer’s whereabouts. Serenity and I are going there to check it out. Please take care of the kids and be their tour guide while we’re gone. You can also take the opportunity to bond with Fred.” After the call ended, Jackson said to Serenity, “Weston should be here when the boat pulls up to the coast.”The kids turned toward them, and Jacqueline was the first to ask, “Where are you guys going?” “We have something very important to do. Uncle Weston will be here soon to take care of you guys. Jackie, Micah, don’t cause any trouble for him. Okay?” Serenity said. “Are you guys going to look for Summer?” Micah suddenly asked. Serenity was surprised, but before she could answer, Micah added, “I want to go with you guys.”“Someone hid Aunt Summer, and we’re going

Micah showed Serenity the photos of the villa. Serenity looked at the photos and wondered what had happened to Summer. She felt heartbroken thinking of the once bright woman being tortured into such a state. Maybe her past had made her empathize with Summer’s encounter. They arrived at a cafe, and Lucas was waiting for them in a private room. Lucas wasn’t surprised that Jackson had come along.“It’s been a long time since we last met, Jackson,” Lucas greeted him. “I wish we didn't have to meet each other at all,” Jackson said. “Sorry to disappoint you.” A childish voice stopped their banter. “Are you the Uncle Lucas who has always liked Mommy?” Lucas looked at the face that resembled Jackson. It reminded him of the time he had met Jackson when they were young. Jackson had been a little older than Micah currently. They were at a party, but Jackson sat by the side and wasn’t bothered about the happenings. However, Jackson would smile at the adults when they approached

Jackson stared at the screen and suddenly said, “What if we bring Summer to the psychiatric hospital for a test to prove that she isn’t mentally ill? The Hope family can’t argue anymore, then.” “In that case, you have to make sure that Summer is mentally healthy. Secondly, you have to get her out of the villa before the Hope family contacts the police. The security system is a major problem for you. Thirdly, we have to wait for a certain time for Summer’s mental health report. We can’t let them know our plans, otherwise, they have the absolute right to terminate the test.” Lucas told them the difficulties that they would face. Serenity took a deep breath. “I think Summer isn’t completely mentally ill. At the very least, she wasn’t in the very beginning. However, she has endured so many years of torture. It’s impossible to determine how sick she is now.” “You want to bet on it?” Jackson asked. Serenity hesitated.“I’ll help you if you decide to bet on it. I have a way to solv

“……” 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
