Coco found it a bit strange. Uncle Dave and his family had been silent. There was no contact from them ever since. Did they finally give up on the idea?It seemed Uncle Dave was just faking his illness. Otherwise, he would have used his medical reports to demand more money. How could he let her go so easily?It was getting closer to Comic Con. While getting ready for Comic Con, Coco prepared some small gifts for her fans, such as some simple drawings. Two days before Comic Con, Coco informed Lucas about the venue for the event and the location of her booth. She hoped he could visit her after work, but he seemed to be planning to visit during the day.On the day of Comic Con, the number of fans who came to the book signing event far exceeded Coco's expectations. During the signing session, some fans asked her about her relationship with Lucas. They wondered if she was truly Mr. Gomez's girlfriend.Coco gave them all the same reply, "Sorry, but I don't really feel comfortable talki

Harold had an outburst of righteous anger as he spoke and tried to push Minnie away.Minnie resisted, trying her best to stop Harold. Afraid that her friend would get hurt, Coco rushed forward to help her. The moment she stepped forward, Harold took his chance and threw his hand at Coco's face. There was a loud, clear slap. Harold beat Coco so hard that her ear was buzzing, her cheeks burning with pain.Furious, Minnie began yelling at him. "How can you hurt her?! That's too much!""Why can't I beat her?! She's so heartless! It's all her fault!" Harold said righteously, "Even if you call the police, I'm still going to fight.""What do you guys think? Shouldn't someone like her get beaten?" Harold began stirring the crowd, and some voices responded in the crowd, "She deserves it!""How can she be so heartless! You should beat her!""How can someone like her be a cartoonist?! She should be blacklisted from the industry!"A one-sided fight somehow started, and people in the cro

A familiar figure. It felt so familiar that tears pricked her eyes. Lucas! Lucas had come! He would save her, for sure!"Luc..." Coco struggled to open her mouth, trying to call out to him. He was her only hope at this moment. Coco desperately needed his help. When she tried to reach out to him, she saw him answer the phone, his face contorting in fury and fear as he listened and turned around to leave.'No, don't go!'"Lucas!" Coco shouted with all her strength, her voice strained and hoarse. No matter how hard she shouted, her voice was drowned out by the clutter of noises around her.Did Lucas not hear her? Was he leaving?!The next moment, she saw him turn around and look in her direction. Their gazes met, and he saw her!Coco was filled with joy. She would not have to be afraid with Lucas around. Lucas would protect her. If Lucas was there…Unfortunately, every hopeful shred of her shattered in the next moment. Shock filled her eyes as she watched him turn around and hurr

"I saw Coco's video from Comic Con. Is she okay now?"Minnie jumped in shock. "Video? You saw it online?!""Minnie, tell me. Is Coco okay?" Loke yelled impatiently.Minnie felt deafened by Loke's yelling. "I accompanied Coco home. Where did you see the video?"Loke did not answer and hung up straight. Minnie stared at her phone, her breath getting hitched. She quickly opened the mobile web browser and searched for some keywords. Within seconds, she found numerous videos about the incident at Comic Con, including Harold's accusations and images of the crowd throwing drinks and random things at Coco.Those comments from the video were all scolding Coco for making a fool of herself. Some even said Coco had deceived Lucas, which was why he dated her, but they would break up soon. Those comments pissed her off!Coco would probably need Lucas' help to handle the situation. Minnie wondered when Lucas would learn about the videos online. She wanted to tell Coco to hurry up and contact Lu

Video? Coco froze for a moment and quickly realized what was happening. Well, there were many people at the convention. They must have been recording the incident and uploaded it to the internet.Coco met Loke's gaze, a small smile on her face. "It's none of your business, Mr. Clark. Besides, I don't think we're even friends. You're not welcome at my house, so please get out.""I'm just worried about you, Coco!" Loke raised his voice. "I know I was wrong. I made mistakes, but I want the best for you now."Loke was so protective of her and wanted to make amends for his mistakes. However, he realized she would never give him a chance to make it up to her."No need." Coco rasped and sounded exhausted. "I'm exhausted, Loke. I don't have the energy to talk to you. I just want to be left alone. If you feel sorry for me, please just leave me alone."Loke hesitated to say something, but he finally swallowed the bitterness in his throat and smiled. "Okay, I know. I'll leave now. Have a goo

"He would?" A mocking sound came out of her, self-deprecating. "Things won't always work in my favor naturally. Just like how he's not obligated to help me.""You have to call, at least. Let him know about this," Minnie said.Just then, Coco noticed a related video link at the bottom of the video. It was not a video about Comic Con, but Lucas.Coco clicked on the video and watched it. A car pulled over in front of the hospital. It was Lucas' car, she recognized it. Then, a man got out of the car in a hurry, running into the hospital. The time of capture was shown on the video. It was taken shortly after the Comic Con incident.Coco found herself frozen in place, staring at the video. What was Lucas doing in the hospital?Minnie sat beside Coco and watched the video together. She wondered, "Isn't that Lucas? Why is he at Solaria Maternity Hospital? And in so much of a hurry? Is someone in his family in labor?Labor? Coco was shocked by what Minnie had said. Serenity was the only

"I will!" Coco promised. She felt the urgency to see Lucas, no matter what. Only this time, her desire to see him was so different from the other night when she had rushed to his villa to meet him!-Meanwhile, at the hospital. Clara put her phone away and looked at Lucas, waiting anxiously outside the operating room.Clara and Jackson had rushed Serenity to the hospital, but no one knew how Lucas had gotten the news and arrived shortly after. Serenity's water had broken too early, and she needed an early C-section immediately.It was a risky labor. There was no telling the consequences on Serenity's health and uterus after labor. Clara pondered worriedly, a deep emotional turmoil within her.More silence loomed. They were all standing outside the operating room, hoping the doctor would come out and give them good news. Jackson and Lucas' eyes were glued to the operating room. The concern, anxiety, and worry on their faces were so obvious. Who would have thought that Solaria

"Serenity wouldn't have gotten pregnant if not for you! Didn't you say you loved her more than your own life? So why are you putting her through all this pain now?!" Lucas raised his voice.Jackson's face darkened. "What, Lucas? I thought you should be completely over her by now.""Completely over her?" Lucas snorted. "Jackson, if it wasn't for you, I would've recognized Serenity before it was too late. If I knew, and if she had loved me, I would've never put her through what she's going through today!"Coco never expected to hear Lucas' confession the first thing in the hospital. Maybe it was all meant to be. The bodyguards from the Valor family heavily guarded the area, but they recognized Coco and let her in, letting her hear Lucas' confession.Coco had always known. Lucas had always loved Serenity, and that fact had never changed.Losing Serenity was Lucas' biggest regret. How could she ever make him transfer his deep love for Serenity to her? It made her laugh at how she thou

“……” 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
