The guard's expression changed before he finally reluctantly made an intercom call. "There are two people here. They said they know Mr. Gerhold and they want to come in." Before the guard could finish his sentence, Jackson took over the phone and announced, "This is Jackson Valor. My wife, Serenity, and I would like to speak to North. Please let him answer the phone."Several minutes passed in silence, and then North's voice sounded. "Jackson?""Yes. Sorry to interrupt you at this time of night. I heard you're here now. Well, my wife and I are waiting outside, ready to take Summer back to the hospital." Jackson spoke in a calm tone like it was just another normal conversation."You're here to pick her up?" North said, his tone showing signs of being offended."What else? She's in your territory now. Anything that happens to her would mean more trouble to you. Besides, her matter is such a big deal now. If something happens, the media may exaggerate her relationship with your

Serenity continued. "Do you think your brother would be happy to know that the woman he protected with his life isn't even allowed to pay her respect at his grave? What would he think?"North's face twisted in annoyance. A short moment later, he turned to Summer, glaring daggers at her."Do you really want to pay respect to my brother? Well, fine. Kowtow to his grave a hundred times! I want to hear the sound when your head touches the ground!" North demanded, and everyone around him turned to him with a startled look on their faces. Serenity furrowed her brow, but Summer broke into a smile."Yes, I will," Summer agreed, her eyes twinkling with hope again. Then, she began bending her body forward, her head touching the ground. The sound of her head touching the ground every time she repeated the action sounded eerily clear in the silence of the night.Serenity became very worried. Summer was already weak from all the torture in the psychiatric hospital. She was covered in old and

When North was younger, he had asked his elder brother why he loved Summer so much. "Because she deserves my love. I like her determination, but I feel sorry for her toughness. She's the only one who can make me feel this way. North, you know what? I hope I can protect her and help her whenever she's in trouble. Even if she doesn't love me, it's fine. I just want her to be happy!""But it's just an unrequited love. Isn't it sad?" North asked his brother, but his brother had broken into a bright smile."I don't think it's sad. Besides, love doesn't necessarily mean possession or asking for something in return. Giving is also a kind of happiness," Nathan said.At that time, North thought his brother was such a fool. It turned out the fool was not alone—Summer was just like him! Nathan used to tell him about Summer's stubbornness, and it seemed to be true.North did not say anything else. Assuming North's silence was permission, Summer carefully picked up the candles with tremblin

"I felt horrible watching Summer at Nathan's grave today," Serenity murmured. "Nathan risked his life to protect her. I wonder how Nathan would feel knowing her current state.""You seem to be caring more and more about Summer," Jackson lamented."Probably because I've been checking a lot of her information. After getting in touch with her, I feel a lot more sympathy for her," Serenity sighed. "If Summer had loved Nathan instead, maybe things would have been very different.""Maybe," Jackson said. "But if the car accident couldn't be avoided, Nathan's death would've caused Summer even more pain."Serenity wrapped her arms around Jackson, still emotional about everything that had happened. "Jack, I'm glad you're well and safe!" After seeing what happened to Summer, she realized how life was so short and cherished every moment even more. Serenity once thought her life was nothing but suffering. After overcoming all the hard times in life, she wished she could keep this happiness.

Later, Summer had met Nathan through Harry, but she never thought Nathan would fall in love with her. Nathan had kept it a secret, and she had never known.Summer thought she would be happily married to Harry, but instead, Harry's family despised her, and her love with Harry was full of thorns. Summer had been humiliated at a family event once. One of Harry's relatives had questioned her in front of the guests, wondering why she deserved Harry. There were many better women in Lanford. Although Summer was a daughter of the Hope family, she had a criminal record.Harry's relative had even made up stories about women pimping in the prison, insinuating that she was one of them. It was simply ridiculous.Summer had successfully debunked the relative's theories only to be attacked by the rest of the Scott family. She was able to speak her mind and silenced them with words, but she was not happy about her victory. Instead, a sense of loss dawned upon her especially when Harry, the man wh

The love she had had for him had disappeared in those dark days.Summer opened her eyes slowly, and it was already morning. The caretaker looked at her with concern. “Good morning, Ms. Hope. Do you want me to help you to the bathroom to wash up?” “Yes, please,” Summer said as she sat up. Only then did she notice that she had cried in her sleep. It was too painful for her to dream about the things back then. After washing up, a nurse came in to change the dressing for her wound before breakfast. Everything was so different compared to the psychiatric hospital. Halfway through her breakfast, an argument broke out outside the ward, followed by a fight. Summer frowned as she wondered what was happening outside. Someone suddenly barged into her ward, and the caretaker stopped him. However, some men restrained the caretaker. Summer’s eyes widened at the man who came in. It was Harry. Harry’s men had restrained the guards outside Summer’s ward, and Harry was slowly walking toward he

Harry’s eyes darkened. “So, you think that Nathan knows you well, right?” “Yes. Unfortunately, I didn’t understand him back then.” Summer’s eyes were filled with affection. By the time she truly understood Nathan, he was gone forever. Her words made Harry mad. He moved to her side and grabbed her jaw. “Summer, you're really shameless. Why did you agree to marry me when you think that he understands you the most? You two-timing me made me the joke of Lanford.” “You’re worse than me!” Summer coldly said. “You married Joyce a few months later after I was forced into a psychiatric hospital, then your child was born 4 months later. You guys even announced to the public that the child was born prematurely. I don’t need to tell you guys the truth, right?” Harry averted his gaze. He knew that he had made a mistake that he couldn’t hide from Summer. He was upset the night he had seen Nathan and Summer together, and he had met Joyce coincidentally. He knew that Joyce was in love with him,

“I’m here today to ask if you were… pregnant with my child or not?” Harry stared at Summer. Before her accident, Summer had called Harry to tell him that she was pregnant. He was excited when he heard that, but Nathan had died trying to protect her when they had gotten into the accident. He was enraged that they were in a car together. Everyone told him that Summer had cheated on him. The nurse had then told him that Summer wasn’t pregnant when he reached the hospital. Summer had lied to Harry. She might have lied because she was afraid he'd regret marrying her and she could marry into the Scott family. Harry had totally forgotten about this incident until recently. He wondered if she was hiding something from him or if she had been forced to lie to him. Summer stared at him, and her expression remained indifferent. “No, I lied.” Her child had passed away due to a difficult birth while Harry was being lovey-dovey with Joyce. Harry’s expression changed. “You’re such a liar. I

“……” 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
