My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 2810
Wilson had never gotten such a long look at his daughter. The baby had stayed in the neonatal ward for a long time after Clara had given birth to the child. He had only seen the baby a few times, and all he could do was look in through the glass.Maybe his subconscious mind was afraid of his attachment to the child. The longer he looked at her, the more he would be emotionally attached to her. That would make him reluctant to part with her."Umm… I'm going to wash up. If the baby wakes up crying, just hold her for a little while. She'll stop crying as soon as you hold her," Clara said.Wilson furrowed his brow slightly. Hold… the little one?"Okay, sure." Speaking of which, he had not really held his daughter much.Clara made her way into the bathroom and washed up. After that, she opened the door only to hear her daughter's cry and Wilson struggling to hold the child."You said she'd stop crying if I held her!" Wilson blurted out when he saw Clara quickly rushing over to help.

Clara stared, stunned, before she finally stepped forward and handed Wilson the bottle. Wilson took the bottle and hesitated for a moment, then tried to feed Amy.While feeding, he stiffened even more, barely able to execute a simple action like this. He was afraid to feed the baby too quickly because she might choke on the milk. He had to be really careful. The small baby was so delicate and fragile, after all. Clara watched Wilson feeding his daughter, her eyes gentle. Maybe moving here was not so bad after all, she thought. At least it was a way for Amy to receive some fatherly love.After finishing the bottle, Clara taught Wilson how to burp the baby. This time, Wilson did not refuse and listened to Clara's teaching. He held the baby upright, gently patting the baby's back. The baby eventually fell asleep after burping slightly.Wilson carefully placed the baby in her crib and tucked her in. His expression softened as he looked at the sleeping baby.An incredibly complicated

Clara was pretending to be asleep. Was it to avoid the awkwardness? Or maybe she just did not want to see more of him.Wilson took a deep breath in, almost as if inhaling her scent. His chest felt heavy, and his body became a little stiff. He felt lost although Clara was right next to him. He had no idea what to do with her. Was he still in love with her?Wilson could not imagine their future. Were they doomed to divorce and separate no matter what? Or would he be forced to make another choice eventually? What should he do? Especially when he could not help but fall in love with her. He could barely resist her attraction!Wilson slowly turned to his side in the darkness, his eyes fixed on Clara's face. He could faintly see the contours of her face in the dim light, but it was more than enough to make his eyes glisten with tears.He had been dreaming about having her by his side, even if it was just a vague outline of her!-Coco packed everything she needed for the visit to her p

It was a quiet car ride to the grave. Coco kept her head low the entire time, making it hard to know what she was thinking.Lucas parked the car at the parking lot in front of the entrance. Coco suddenly spoke when they came to a complete stop. "I-I just think it's unlikely for you to fall in love with someone else. Even if you do, it won't be me. So, I…" Coco said, unable to finish her sentence. Maybe it was a sign of her inferiority complex.Coco and Lucas belonged to two different worlds, after all. They had many differences—their family background, financial status, and everything else.Lucas studied her for a moment, his smile fading. He unfastened the seatbelt and leaned over slightly, trailing his thumb across her jaw. "Do you have so little confidence in yourself?""I...""Then you'd better listen to what I'm saying now." Lucas' lips parted as he declared, "Remember this. It's been many years since I've decided to try to fall in love, and you're the one I've chosen. If I

Lucas was just so fine, standing there like a statue chiseled from marble. Coco was sure her parents would be amazed to see Lucas if they were still alive.They would find it unbelievable that she had found such a wonderful boyfriend! If only they were still alive. How wonderful it would be! Tears welled as the wave of sadness washed over her."Feel like crying?" Lucas had probably sensed her sadness.Coco sniffled. "You know, I caused my parents' death," she said abruptly. "That's why Aunt Clementine and her family called me a jinx. They think I'm the cause of their misfortune." Coco had always buried the thoughts in the heart and never told anyone. This time, she suddenly felt the urge to pour out her feelings. "You're not a jinx. Don't put the blame on yourself," Lucas comforted."But I'm the one who caused the tragedy. I insisted on going to Grelin Valley although my dad wasn't feeling well that day and had to take cold medicine before driving Mom and me there. The cold m

Lucas turned to Coco. "You don't always have to thank me," he said. "Do you have anything planned for later?"Coco shook her head. "Nope. I have nothing planned for today.""Then accompany me to a place," he said."Where?" she asked."You'll see," he said, checking the time. "If we leave now, we can have lunch there."The two got back into the car, and Lucas drove off in a northward direction. After half an hour of driving, Coco's face contorted with discomfort. She recognized this road and remembered it correctly. It was the road to Grelin Valley. This was where the tragic accident had happened. The road to the north of the city had appeared hundreds of times in her dream! "Lucas… Where are you taking me?" Coco murmured, her face so pale."Grelin Valley."When she heard the answer, her face turned ashen. "No! I don't want to go!" Grelin Valley was a nightmare for her. It was where she had committed the unforgivable sin. She had insisted on going there as a kid and cried c

"Don't... Don't... Don't die, don't die..." Coco cried out like she was broken inside. The next moment, a pair of arms pulled her in a warm embrace."I'm sorry. I didn't realize you'd react so strongly. Sorry!" A familiar voice rang in her ears.Who was holding her? Was it mother?"Don't be afraid, Coco. You'll be fine. I'm right here, and it's gonna be okay. So don't be afraid…" The familiar voice continued to ring in her ears.Warmth flooded through her, and she glanced up to see a handsome face. He was usually cold and stern, but this time, he had a mixture of worry and anxiety across his face.It was Lucas.Coco stared at him blankly and wondered to herself. Who was he so worried and anxious about?"Coco? Coco?!"Lucas anxiously called out her name. He had brought her to Grelin Valley, hoping it would help her grieve her parents' death, but he never realized the true extent of her trauma. Halfway through the drive, Coco began to show trauma responses and reacted adversely.

Lucas grabbed some tissues and gently wiped away the tears from Coco’s face. "I had no idea you would react like this. It seems that I was too presumptuous to bring you here. Let me take you back now," he said, starting to make a U-turn. "Don't." Coco placed her hand on Lucas’s hand, which was on the gear shift. Taking a deep breath, she looked straight ahead and decided. "I... I want to go to Grelin Valley." She wanted to finish her vacation that had ended abruptly years ago.She had never dared to come here for so many years. She still hadn’t moved on from the ghost of her past. She knew Lucas wanted her to let go of this burden, and she knew that it was time for her to move on.Her parents in heaven might be happier to see her being happy too. Lucas looked at Coco’s red and swollen eyes. "Are you sure you want to go there?""Yes. I want to see Grelin Valley, and I want to see it for my parents," Coco said.His eyes flickered slightly, and he agreed after a moment of contemplati

“……” 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
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
