My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 294
She shivered and raised her head stiffly. Her wet eyes slowly gained focus."Jack, help me find Lisa." She seemed to have come back to her senses. She said in a hurry, "The police said they'll send people to look for her, but who knows when they'll find her! I wish I memorized the license plate. Why didn't I memorize the license plate?"Her voice was heavy with guilt.Jackson had only seen Serenity this anxious once before – when her grandmother fell ill.But her grandmother was her family, and Lisa was not. And yet, Serenity cared so much about Lisa.He suddenly felt jealous of Lisa. If something happened to him, would Serenity be this anxious for him too?"Let's go back first. It's cold outside," he said, "Your hands are freezing."It's cold? She didn't even realize that it was cold. Lisa was the only thing in her mind."Then... will you help me find Lisa?" she asked, wanting a definite answer from him. The police could only wait, but... if he was willing to help, surely she

His chest felt tight.Since when had he ever felt bad about making a woman worried and scared? She seemed to be the only one who could make him feel this way.Jackson sighed. He sighed because he had no choice but to compromise. He took out his phone and made a call. "Help me find someone. I need to know where this person is and whether she’s safe... Her name is Lisa Quest. She was taken away in a car this afternoon. The car is..."Jackson handed the phone to Serenity and gestured at her to speak.Serenity immediately understood. She quickly said, "It's a black Maybach. The license plate is..."She told the person the part of the license plate she could remember, the address of the parking lot, and other details like what time the incident occurred.When Serenity was done, Jackson told the person in the phone, "That's all. I want to know Lisa Quest's whereabouts as soon as possible!"After ending the call, Jackson looked at Serenity and said, "Okay, can we go back now?"She fol

Jackson said no more. He straightened up, closed the door, went around to the driver's seat and started the car.Serenity was surprised to see Jackson drive the car himself. He usually let his driver drive him.But because he was driving, she was able to look at his side profile.From the side, the contours of his face seemed even more well-defined, especially his high nasal bridge and his sexy thin lips.His hair was messier than usual. A few strands of his hair had dropped onto his forehead. This made him look more like the Jack she knew.Jack... The name gave her a complicated feeling. Just now, she kept calling him Jack because she wasn't thinking straight.Was it because she subconsciously thought that Jack could help her and Jackson Valor could not?But in reality, Jack and Jackson Valor were the same person!And he was the only person she could turn to for help. The police were also searching for Lisa, but... she would like to have more people searching for Lisa, just in

He wanted her eyes to be filled with only his presence."If you want to know immediately, you can wait with me. My men will inform me right away when they find Lisa," said Jackson.Of course that would not be a problem for Serenity, but... wait with him? Wait where? Serenity blinked while wondering that. Five minutes later, she finally found out where they would be waiting.In his room!Although this was not her first time in his room, it was the first time she came in through the front door instead of the door that connected the two rooms.Right after they walked into the room, Jackson took off his jacket. He also took out his phone and put it on the table.Serenity was surprised to see the phone because it was the phone that she bought for him – the outdated model which she bought at a discount. Most people had a better phone than that.He still kept the phone around?Well, if he didn't, he wouldn't have picked it up instantly when she called him earlier.But while she was

The upper half of his body... was completely naked!"You–– " She blushed profusely. Her eyes were still closed. She did not dare to open them lest she saw something that she shouldn't."Won't you open your eyes?" His voice was so pleasing to the ear. It sounded like the devil's temptation.However, Serenity kept her eyes closed. She urged him with a blush, "Hurry up and put on some clothes.""But I want you to look at me," he said, "Besides, I helped you out today, and you won't even look at me?"Serenity's body stiffened. She subconsciously bit her lip and let out a small cry of pain when she accidentally touched the bite wound.She could hear him chuckle. Then, she felt the sensation of his touch on her lip. "Do you know how cute you looked just now?"Cute?But before she could react, she felt something else on her lips. It was... his lips!He was kissing her!Serenity opened her eyes in surprise. She stared at the face right before her eyes in astonishment. She could not e

He ignored her request. He simply stared at her and asked, "Would you hurt me, Sis?"Her entire body shook, and her throat tightened. The words she wanted to say got stuck in her throat.He stared at her fixedly with eyes that tried to see through her."Was that a difficult question?" he asked when she remained silent for a long time. "It's okay if you're unwilling to answer that, but I still want to tell you–– "He slowly bent down until his mouth was next to her ear. He whispered, "Never hurt me, understand?"As long as she did not hurt him, he would spoil her and give her everything she ever wanted. He would protect her for the rest of her life and keep her safe and sound.As long as she did not hurt him!Serenity sat uneasily in the large room. She checked the time on her phone from time to time, wondering how much longer she had to wait to hear news of her best friend.Jackson had changed into casual attire. He was currently sitting on the sofa and reading some reports.

"The CEO of the White Maple Group and the current head of the White family," replied Jackson. He then looked at Serenity curiously, "You don't know who he is? Has Lisa not mentioned him before?"Serenity shook her head. She was sure that she had never heard her best friend mention the name Terry White before.However, she had heard of the White Maple Group before. It was not a local company but it had business dealings in Solaria. It was a famous shipping company.But how did Lisa get involved with this Terry White guy? What puzzled Serenity even more was the fact that Terry White personally took Lisa away.Terry White was in the Maybach that she saw earlier?Serenity thought her best friend was abducted, but that did not seem to be the case now."I'll go look for her!" Serenity turned around abruptly. She wanted to go to the address she just heard to find her best friend."You think you can get in?" Jackson asked flatly."......" Serenity halted. After hesitating for a moment,

Money? Serenity did not have money. She did not have any connections either.Things she had learned over the years would be useless to him. The team of lawyers in Valor Group was simply more qualified than her.The only thing she had left was herself. She was worthless, but it was all she could offer.Serenity looked down and sank to her knees. "I’m begging you, please. Take me to Terry White. I need to find Lisa."Jackson's gaze darkened. He glared at her with a look of shock and a hint of anger."Do you know what you're doing?" Jackson glowered, anger brewing in his chest.Jackson knew Serenity had her pride. Even if hurt or ridiculed, she would protect her last bit of dignity, the dignity that had been trampled on countless times.It was the only reason why she had rejected him repeatedly. However, she was willing to let go of her dignity and beg for Lisa's sake. So, was Lisa more important than anything else to her?"I know." Serenity lowered her head and said without hesit

“……” 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
