My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 2931
After the bodyguards left, Lucas and Coco were left alone. Coco, who was still blushing, mustered up her courage and said, “Um... if you need to use the bathroom, I-I can help with my eyes closed...”Lucas couldn’t help but laugh, but it triggered his wound, causing him to wince.“What’s wrong? Are you in pain?” Coco asked in concern.“I’m fine,” Lucas replied. “I can ask my bodyguards to help me to the bathroom. You just need to help with simple things like getting me a glass of water since I can’t move around easily.”Coco sighed in relief. As long as it wasn’t helping him in the bathroom, she could manage everything else.“You must have been really scared today,” Lucas said.“A little,” Coco murmured. Minnie’s disappearance and Lucas getting stabbed had caused her to experience a rollercoaster of emotions today.“Thank you for protecting me. I don’t know how I can ever repay you…”If it was others, she could offer money or gifts, but with Lucas, she didn’t know what she could do t

"Yes. I almost had a heart attack yesterday. When I came back from the restroom and couldn't find you, I called the police, but they refused to help me because your disappearance hadn't been long enough. In the end, I had to seek Lucas's help. Luckily, he found you. If we had been any later, you might have..." Coco recounted the events at the hotel from the previous night.Minnie got goosebumps as she listened. She was thankful that Coco had arrived in time, otherwise, she would have been in real trouble."By the way, how is Lucas doing?" Minnie asked."The doctor said it's nothing serious, but he did need eleven stitches and will have to stay in the hospital for a few days for observation," Coco replied.Minnie gasped. Eleven stitches. That was quite a large wound."Lucas risking his life to take that stab for you shows he might care about you more than we thought," Minnie murmured.After all, not many people would be willing to do that.Coco remained silent.Meanwhile, Lucas’s parent

Thud! It sounded like someone had bumped into the door. The three people in the VIP ward looked toward the door. A woman opened the door slightly and peeked through the crack. It was none other than Coco, the very person Carmen had just suggested should marry Lucas."Sorry, I didn't mean to eavesdrop," Coco said awkwardly, her face flushed with embarrassment.She had returned from Minnie’s room only to hear them talking about her. She felt that it would be inappropriate for her to enter, so she decided to wait outside until they finished their conversation.However, she was startled to hear Carmen’s last sentence, which caused her to accidentally bump on the door. “Coco,” Lucas called out.Jared and Carmen instantly knew who this woman was. Though they had long been aware of Coco, this was their first time meeting her.“Come on in,” Carmen instructed her. Coco walked up to Jared and Carmen and greeted them politely, “Hello, Mr. and Mrs. Gomez. Nice to meet you.”“I’m not feeling nic

Coco struggled to come up with a reasonable explanation.“Could it be that... he’s not satisfying you in that aspect, which is why you feel you’re not compatible?” Carmen guessed.Both Lucas and Jared immediately understood the implication, their expressions shifting slightly. Coco, however, did not comprehend it, but Carmen’s question inadvertently provided an excuse for her. So, she quickly nodded. “Yes, yes, that’s it. We’re not compatible in that way.”Upon hearing this, Jared looked at his son in surprise while Lucas looked on speechlessly.Just from Coco's response, Lucas knew she didn’t know what Carmen was talking about. He couldn’t give Coco a hint at all.Carmen hurriedly grabbed Coco’s hand and said, “I assure you, my son is perfectly healthy. It might just be stress or something causing your incompatibility. I’ll get him some supplements to boost his energy. Besides, you should understand that he doesn’t have much experience. Some women might prefer a man who’s been around

"What? Misunderstand that I'm impotent?" Lucas raised an eyebrow.Coco's face turned even redder. She quickly changed the subject, "Um... how's your wound? Does it still hurt?""It’s fine, I guess. It doesn't really hurt," he replied. Looking at her flushed face, he sighed and said, "Also, don't mind my mother.” "Huh?" She stared at him puzzledly."The breakup. Since it was your decision, I respect it. You don’t have to reconsider it just because I took a knife for you," Lucas said. Even though he desperately wanted to keep her by his side, to take care of her, and to protect her. He even felt that she was the only one who could help him move on. Nevertheless, he still wanted to respect her decision. He didn’t want to force her, nor did he want to see her tears."Yeah, I get it..." Coco replied solemnly. She should be happy that he respected her decision, but at this moment, she couldn't feel any excitement at all.She felt a little heartbroken instead. -Lucas needed to stay in the

However, she wasn’t skillful at it, and she couldn't peel the apple skin in one strip. When she finished, the apple looked somewhat messy."I'm not very good at peeling apples," Coco said awkwardly."It's alright," Lucas replied, taking the apple from her and biting into it.Coco watched him quietly. He seemed thinner and paler than before.She felt fuzzy and warm when he said he had willingly taken the stab for her. The man she loved had risked his life for her. How could she suppress her feelings? However, there was always a voice reminding her that the one he truly loved was Serenity. So, she was afraid to let her feelings run wild.If she ever got the chance, she would repay him for saving her life."What's the matter? Why are you staring at me?" Lucas broke the silence."I was just thinking about how I should repay you for saving my life," Coco murmured.Lucas stared at her intently. "Coco, you don't need to repay me. I’ve never thought about that.” “It’s none of your business a

"Don’t worry, it doesn't hurt at all," Lucas reassured Coco. "It’s such a long wound... I wonder if it will leave a scar," she mumbled."It doesn't matter even if it does," he replied. "I'm a man. A few scars don't bother me. But if you don't like it, I can always get a scar removal treatment."She was stunned. His words seemed to suggest he would do anything that pleased her. Please? Coco quickly shook her head, trying to clear her thoughts. "The nurse said you have to take two kinds of pills. You... you should take them now."She hurriedly picked up the two types of medicine the nurse had left on the bedside table. Then, she prepared the pill and poured a glass of warm water for Lucas. "Coco, you can go home if you feel uncomfortable staying here. There are doctors, nurses, aides, and my men here to take care of me," Lucas said after taking the medicine.She blinked. He had noticed her discomfort!"You got hurt because of me. It's my responsibility to stay here and take care of yo

"He was stabbed in the abdomen and needed eleven stitches. Luckily, it didn't hit any vital organs. The doctor wants him to stay in the hospital for observation, but if everything goes well, he can be discharged in a couple of days," Coco explained.Caleb grumbled, "Hmm... it seems he really does care about you, going as far as to risk his life for you. If it were me in danger, he'd probably just watch on coldly."Feeling awkward, Coco said, "He... he would probably save you too. You're his friend, he...""I know his personality well enough," Caleb shrugged. "He’s always been indifferent to everyone and everything except for the people he cares about. Back then, it was Serenity. Now, it's..."Caleb paused, suddenly feeling awkward himself. "Haha... Sorry for mentioning Serenity. I hope you don't mind," he laughed dryly."It's fine," Coco said softly, her eyelashes trembling as she lowered her gaze. "I know Lucas loves Serenity and has loved her for many years. If Serenity hadn't marrie

“……” 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
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
