"You're my boyfriend now. Consider this bracelet a gift from me to you. I'd feel weird if you had to pay for your own gift," Coco insisted.Lucas glanced at the bracelet on his wrist. A gift? Strange feelings were bubbling in his chest, and he said nothing. Finally, Coco paid the bill, looking at the bracelet on her wrist with joy. "Do you like them that much?" Lucas asked.Coco chuckled, feeling a little embarrassed. "It's my first time wearing a matching couple bracelet. It's a new feeling.""How does it feel?" he asked."Like I'm not alone anymore," Coco murmured. "It feels like I finally have someone with me."Lucas's eyes flickered with something. No longer alone? Coco seemed bright and cheerful, but Lucas could sense her real emotions behind the facade. When she was young, she lived with her foster family after her parents passed away. Then, she began living alone after enrolling in university."Lucas, can you wear this bracelet whenever we go on a date? I know it's no

Lucas felt at ease with Coco around him. Maybe it was a good idea for him to stay that way. If he could fall in love with Coco, it would be the best for everyone.Lucas fluttered his eyes open slowly and stared at the brand-new silver bracelet on his wrist. "Serenity, I'll do anything to grant your wish." Even if it meant letting himself fall in love with another person. He would do his best to grant her wish!The next day, the executives of Gomez Group were surprised to find Lucas wearing a silver bracelet on his wrist. It was hard to imagine a man like him wearing silver accessories. Some even tried to identify the bracelet and luxury brand but could not find anything.The silver bracelet with unknown origins immediately became the talk of the company.Caleb saw this silver bracelet when he came to meet Lucas. Unlike Lucas' employees, he naturally realized that the bracelet was not from a big brand. "Why are you wearing a bracelet like this? Where did you get it from? The marke

"If they knew, they'd be overjoyed," Caleb exclaimed. Lucas' parents had been worried about their son's marriage. Nothing else mattered as long as he was willing to marry a woman."You came to see me. Something you need?" Lucas asked. Caleb then remembered the reason he came, but it felt a little awkward to bring it up. "Well, it's about Jane… I didn't want to be involved, but her family came to harass me at work every day. It caused quite the disturbance, and I was thinking of…""You want me to spare her?" Lucas said, raising an eyebrow."I initially thought of that, but I changed my mind," Caleb said. Lucas was serious about Coco and would not let Jane escape her punishment for attacking Coco on the set. This meant the Harris family's plan had failed."Great. Don't feel at all sorry for someone like her. She harmed Coco, and she's now getting a taste of her own medicine," Lucas said, a cold glint appearing in his eyes.-Those people who put Serenity in danger were all subdue

Clara responded to Serenity before finally ending the call.Serenity was right. She should deal with this matter as soon as possible. The rumors might reach Solaria soon, and Yanny would be alienated and criticized in class again.Clara felt a pang of heartache thinking of the various discriminations her son had endured because of her past in prison and for raising him as a single mother. She did not want the past to repeat itself.Taking a deep breath, Clara dialed Wilson's number, praying he would answer her call. A few beats later, the call connected. "Yes?" Wilson's voice answered."I'm calling to ask about the rumor from Latveria. We're divorced, but why are there rumors of you cheating in marriage?""I know you brought Mandy to the party, but a rumor like this shouldn't have happened. Why didn't you announce the divorce?"Clara asked a series of questions, only to receive a short answer from Wilson. "We're not yet divorced.""What?!" Clara was stunned. She thought she he
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 2759
Wilson asked anyway, despite already knowing Clara's answer. All it did was give him another heartache.Heartache?! Wilson was so startled by his realization that his phone slipped from his loosened grip and dropped to the ground. He put a hand over his chest, and his heartbeat seemed to echo in his own ears with pain.Wilson thought he had no feelings for Clara, especially after the hypnosis. Why was his heart still hurting because of her?Stop it! Stop the pain!His inner voice kept shouting, but the pain would not stop and dragged on. It seemed the pain would go on as long as his heart was still beating.-A week later, Coco and Lucas went to the night market again and collected their custom-made dolls. Coco had done a great job at drawing the designs, and the dolls were almost the same as how she drew them. A sweet smile curved her lips upward as she stared at the two dolls in her hands.The contentment filling her eyes made him amazed. It was easy to make Coco happy. The tw

Putting an animated film on the big screen would require far more time and money than ordinary movies, which was why there were so few animated movies."If you are serious about directing an animated film, I can help," Lucas offered. Coco jumped in shock. She would have normally treated something like this as a joke, but when hearing it coming from Lucas' mouth was different. It might actually come true. Lucas had the power, after all."No, no!" Coco profusely waved her hand at Lucas and refused him. "I don't have the ability to direct an animated movie yet. Besides, making an animated film requires a lot of money. It's a big investment, and it's very risky. I don't want you to lose money. I'm better off doing something within my capability.""It doesn't matter if we make a loss from the movie. But if you don't want to, I'll invest in your work in the future. Whenever you think you're ready. What do you think?" Lucas said. Coco smiled brightly. This time, she did not refuse his

In the end, Lucien used all his spiritual power to cure the girl's illness. After losing all his power, he vanished into the clear sky.The director used clever and humorous means to express the somewhat sad ending. The children saw the joy in it, but adults could see the sadness hidden under the joy.Coco felt her eyes stinging with tears as she watched the ending. She quietly sighed at Lucien's ending while listening to the joyful laughter of the children surrounding her. For the children, it was funny to see how Lucien was tricked into doing all sorts of funny things by his savior's impersonator.Coco snuck a glance at Lucas sitting her, only to realize Lucas was watching the movie with great concentration. He was so focused on the movie and could not hear the sound around him.Why was he so focused on the movie? Coco thought to herself.Immediately afterward, Coco's eyes zeroed in on his face. She saw light reflected on the tears that gathered in his eyes.Lucas? Is he cryi
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 2762
It seemed Lucas was still immersed in the movie and could not get his head out of it.Coco pondered before saying, "It's just a movie. Don't feel too bad about it. Besides, Lucien finally had the chance to repay his gratitude. I'm sure he's content, although with a regrettable ending.""It's just a movie?" Lucas repeated in a murmur.Coco blinked. "Isn't it just a movie?"Lucas forced a smile onto his face. "Yeah, it's just a movie. But Lucien is so stupid. He just can't stop making mistakes, one after another. What a fool."The forced smile on his face made her heart ache a little. He looked like he was about to cry again although he was smiling."No one is perfect. Everyone makes mistakes," Coco said softly. "And I don't think Lucien is stupid. He's just too obsessed with his wish. He wanted to repay his gratitude to the girl who saved him, but the bad guys took advantage of him."Lucas fluttered his long lashes. Yes. Many people had said that he was too obsessive. His persist

“……” 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
