Chapter 2881

Author: Anastasia Marie
"Son, what's this 3 million about?" Clementine hurriedly asked.

Harold's lips trembled, but he remained quiet.

Lucas explained to them instead, "The person who gave you the money told you to cause trouble for Coco, right? Why don't you tell me who it is so I can know who's plotting against Coco?"

Harold didn't dare to say anything. He knew he was dead meat if he revealed the person's identity. However, if he remained silent, perhaps the person who gave him the 3 million dollars would protect him.

With this in mind, Harold pleaded. "Mr. Gomez, I’m sorry. I was too greedy. Regardless, we are Coco's relatives. Please spare our family. I can apologize to Coco. She will surely forgive us!"

Lucas looked at him with a murderous glint in his eyes.

Although the main reason Coco had broken up with Lucas was because he had chosen Serenity over her, if Harold hadn’t caused such trouble that day, Lucas and Coco might still be together.

Lucas glared at him and said coldly, “She will never forgive y

    Aubrey's heart sank. Lucas could find out anything he wanted to. "Why did you do this?" Lucas asked coldly.Aubrey laughed mockingly. "You’re really asking me that? Lucas, I've loved you for so many years. Tell me, why did I do that?""I would never love you even if Coco didn’t exist. I would have loved you from the beginning if I liked you,” Lucas replied.Aubrey felt a pang in her chest when she heard that. It was hard for her to accept his answer even if she was prepared for it. "Then why did you choose Coco?" She shouted. "If you loved Serenity because she saved you when you were young, what about Coco? Why her?"She could accept losing to Serenity because she hadn't saved Lucas's life. However, she couldn’t accept losing to Coco because Coco hadn’t done anything for Lucas. "Because she helped me move on," Lucas answered."What do you mean?" Aubrey was puzzled.He had no intention of explaining further. "I can only tell you that Coco is irreplaceable to me now.""Irreplaceable.

    Since love wasn't a factor, Aubrey believed she was a better fit for Lucas than Coco. Alas, to her disappointment, Lucas's gaze remained as cold as ever."I’m not interested in you at all. As for your family, it will cease to exist in Solaria in a year. They might be able to salvage something if they start making plans now. Otherwise, you will lose everything."Lucas left after saying that, leaving Aubrey standing there in a daze. Her face reflected not only resentment, hatred, and jealousy, but also shock and fear.She wondered if Lucas was really planning to eliminate the Stewart family within a year. She didn’t know why Lucas was willing to go this far for Coco if he didn’t love her. However, her questions were unanswered. As Lucas got into his car and closed his eyes, Aubrey's words echoed in his mind. ‘It’s fine even if you don't love me.’Coco and Aubrey's views of love were so different. Lucas wondered what he should do to make Coco willingly get back together with him. Then,

    “Actions speak louder than words,” Coco said and smiled bitterly. Lucas turned pale. He knew what she meant by that. The incident at Comic Con was like a thorn in her heart, and he was the one who had caused that. "I also think we need to have a proper conversation about the pregnancy," Coco said."Alright, go ahead," Lucas responded and signaled for everyone to leave them alone. “Do you insist that I give birth to the baby if I’m pregnant?” Coco asked. "I don't want to lose the child if you’re pregnant," he replied. He had never wanted a child from the beginning even though his parents were eager to have grandchildren, and they didn't mind an illegitimate child. But now, he wanted this child because Coco was the mother. "Even if I don't want it, will you stop me from having an abortion?" Coco asked.He remained silent, confirming his answer."Would you use extreme measures, like keeping me locked up in the villa like now?" She pressed further.Again, he stayed silent.She purs

    So, back then, Lucas had said those words because he wanted Coco to stay by his side."Maybe I started liking you from then." Perhaps, it was much earlier than he had imagined.Coco couldn’t hold back her tears, and she raised her hands to cover her eyes. "Lucas, please don't say things like that anymore!"Such words would only make her feelings waver.Did he know how much she loved him? How much determination and willpower it took to break up with him, to keep her distance, and to stop loving him more and more?Tears were streaming down Coco’s face.Lucas gently pulled her hand away. "Okay, I won’t say anything like that anymore. Please, don't cry."Her tears always left him at a loss. He held her, comforting her gently. The once cold and distant look in his eyes was now replaced with tenderness.After a while, Coco finally stopped crying, though she still occasionally sniffled.Lucas took a tissue and carefully wiped her tears. After a moment, he said, "If we really have a child and

    "I told them you were living with Lucas now and they left quickly without saying a word," Minnie added when Coco remained silent, "Did you block their numbers? They said you never answered their calls.” "Yes," Coco replied. She should have blocked her uncle’s family long ago. "Great!" Minnie praised. "But didn't they try calling you from other numbers?""Of course they did, but as soon as I recognized their voices, I hung up and blocked those numbers too." In other words, she never gave them a chance to speak.She didn’t want to hear anything from them anymore. The last bit of familial affection for them was completely gone."It seems that you’ve set your mind on it." Minnie was surprised."Yeah!" Coco no longer considered Dave and his family to be her relatives."It’s about time! They said Lucas plans to sue them, especially Harold. He came to me today, crying his eyes out, saying he’s being charged with endangering public safety, provocation, intentional assault, and a whole list o

    In fact, Lucas had never considered Aubrey to be his friend."You don't have to explain any of this to me," Coco said. They had already broken up, and their relationship no longer mattered to her. Moreover, she knew better than anyone that his heart had always belonged to Serenity.Thinking of Serenity, Coco said, "Is it okay for me to visit Serenity in the hospital?" The last time she visited, Serenity was still unconscious, and she wanted to check on her condition.Lucas hesitated."Don't worry. I won't say anything to upset Serenity. I'll still pretend that we’re dating. If Serenity asks in the future, you can tell her that our relationship is going well. Once Serenity fully recovers, I can come up with a reason for us to break up. You can put all the blame on me. You could say that I felt overwhelmed by the media attention, or you can tell her that I fell for someone else. Any excuse will do—"Before she could finish speaking, she was pulled into a tight embrace.Lucas held her clo

    "Thank you! I love it!" Serenity said. "I didn’t expect you to draw my daughter so accurately.""I saw her when I came to the hospital that day, so I remember how she looked," Coco replied."Jackson told me that you and Lucas were at the hospital that day. Did I scare you guys?” Serenity asked.Coco smiled softly. "I’m glad that you’re safe. That’s all that matters."Jackson and Lucas exchanged glances when the women started chatting. Then, Jackson spoke up, "Lucas, come out for some fresh air with me."Coco watched them, feeling a little uneasy. Serenity reassured her, "Don’t worry, they'll be back soon. Jackson won’t kidnap Lucas.” Coco smiled, knowing Jackson hadn't told Serenity about what had happened that day."By the way, how are things going between you and Lucas?" Serenity asked."All good." Coco wasn’t lying. Lucas had been doting on her the past few days except for not letting her leave the villa. Still, his actions were like a form of compensation to Coco."Great," Seren

    And Coco's stubbornness stemmed from her fear that she would fall deeper and deeper in love with Lucas!When Jackson and Lucas returned to the hospital room, Serenity was chatting with Coco. They were talking about the newborn baby and also the triplets.Noticing the slight fatigue on Serenity's face, Coco stood up and said, "Well, I think we should head back now. Serenity, take care of yourself and get lots of rest, okay? I'll visit you and the baby again soon.""Okay, I will," Serenity replied. "Next time, I'll introduce you to my triplets as well.""Okay," Coco nodded.After Coco and Lucas left, Jackson lowered the top half of Serenity's hospital bed and advised, "If you're feeling tired, take a nap. The doctor said you need plenty of rest.""I am a little tired," Serenity admitted. "I really enjoyed talking with Coco. Jackson, I'm so glad Lucas fell in love with Coco. She's a remarkable woman, and Lucas has finally found his happiness."As Serenity spoke, her eyes gradually

    “……” 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
