My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 2954
Realization finally dawned on Minnie. Her eyes went wide, and her mouth dropped open."What did you just say?! You're back with Lucas?""Yeah," Coco replied."What made you get back with him? Because of the heroic rescue?" Minnie was curious.Coco pondered in a long silence. "Probably. Because of this incident, I've come to realize something.""Who knows what the future holds? At least I've met the love of my life, and he happens to be interested in me too.""I don't know if we can be together for long, but I want to give it a try instead of giving up without doing anything.""Lucas was willing to take a knife for you. It shows that he really cares about you. I have hope for you two."Minnie widened her smile."Now that I think about it, this incident isn't all that bad. At least Lucas and you are back together. When you two get married, I expect a big gift from you two."Coco looked down with a shy smile. "We just got back together. It's too soon to talk about marriage. Ar

"It's fine! It's fine!" Minnie waved at Coco. "Think about it. You both saved me when I was in trouble. A meal is nothing!"After ordering dinner, Minnie went to the restroom. Coco remained in her seat and informed Lucas of the restaurant and location. Coco continued to browse through the menu in her hand. While looking at the menu, she suddenly heard a voice in the room. "Wait… Coco?"Coco glanced up and saw a woman with pretty makeup looking at her, accompanied by a man in his forties standing beside her."You are..." Coco thought she looked a little familiar."Xena Hayes. We were in the same class in high school," the woman said. Coco vaguely remembered going to high school with this woman."Oh, Xena. Hello," Coco greeted politely. They were only classmates, and Coco was not close to Xena in high school. If Coco remembered correctly, Xena's family was not very well off. Xena was thin, and her closet was full of hand-me-downs. Coco heard from her classmates that Xena's

Spencer looked at Coco with incredulous contempt, especially after hearing what Xena said."If you're into branded goods, maybe you can consider having some of my old clothes. Even though I've worn them before, you can have it." Xena offered Coco her old clothes as if she were doing charity. "Oh, Spencer buys me anything I want, regardless of the price. My clothes are worth thousands of dollars each, and Spencer bought them all for me," Xena added cheekily. She was deliberately showing off, implying the huge gap between Coco and her.Coco initially thought it was nice to meet her old classmate, but Xena had ruined her mood."No, thanks. You can donate them to those who need it. I have my own," Coco rejected.Xena's gaze darkened a little with evident displeasure. She was about to say something, but a voice interrupted them."Coco."Xena looked up and saw a man in a white shirt and black pants. The man walked over to Coco, obviously a friend of hers.An unexpected flair of jeal

Xena pretended to speak in Coco's favor, but she was putting her down with her comment."Fake?" Lucas narrowed his eyes dangerously."Yes. The shirt Coco is wearing. It's a limited edition piece from Celestial's spring collection. It cost 400 thousand dollars each. What Coco is wearing is naturally a counterfeit," Xena quickly added, hoping to embarrass Coco.Lucas sneered."I had someone buy the shirt for her. If it's really fake, I'll have to sue Celestial for selling fake designer goods."Xena was stunned. What?! This guy had bought the shirt Coco was wearing? And judging by the way he said it…Was the shirt genuine? How could it be?! This meant Coco was wearing the real thing! A limited edition shirt from Celestial, worth 400 thousand dollars?! Lucas ignored Xena and called the waiter instead. "Get the manager over here.""Yes, yes." The waiter responded and scurried away to get the manager. Just by Lucas' demeanor alone, he knew Lucas was unlike any other ordinary man, co

Coco looked at Lucas curiously. "You know the manager?""Rather than knowing the manager, I know the owner. I've been here a few times with him, so Thomas knows me," Lucas said and saw the realization in Coco's eyes."You know him too," he added.Coco was puzzled. "I know him?""Caleb," Lucas said."Caleb? Mr. Moss?""Yes."Coco was at a loss for what to say. Minnie had chosen the place, and it turned out to be Caleb's restaurant. What a small world."Was she a friend from high school? Don't bother hanging out with that kind of person again," Lucas said. With his experience, he could easily tell what Xena had in mind."I just ran into her today. I didn't know she'd say those things! Besides, I didn't have problems with her in high school," Coco muttered."Some people just can't stand to see others doing better than they are," Lucas said, looking at Coco with a kind of softness he never realized.Coco had been through so much, but she was still a kind person at heart. Her kin

Coco coughed at what he said. "I can't act… Besides, even if I want to be the lead actress, there's no way I can pass the audition.""If you want to, you can." Lucas sounded certain.Coco froze. Then she realized Lucas could make it come true, especially with his influence in showbiz."What do you think?" Lucas asked again, his voice gentle."No, thanks. I'd rather draw comics," Coco stammered."God. You two are so sweet," Minnie exclaimed with an exaggerated sigh. "Are you trying to let me die of envy?""Hurry up and get yourself a boyfriend, then," Coco teased."Well, I haven't found the right guy," Minnie replied."Want me to introduce you to some men?" Lucas asked abruptly, and Coco and Minnie looked at him in surprise."What?" he arched a brow."You don't seem like the kind of guy interested in doing matchmaking for others," Coco murmured. Lucas seemed like a silent observer who would never voluntarily go out of his way to help others."I don't like it, but Minnie is yo

"I'm fine. When I think of Minnie, I kinda feel an urge to cry," Coco explained."An urge to cry?" Lucas frowned."Minnie's been really good to me. I haven't done much for her compared to what she's done for me." Coco felt a little emotional, tears gathering in her eyes. "I wouldn't be where I am without her."Lucas leaned forward, pressing a gentle kiss on the corner of her eye."If only I had met you earlier. I'll always protect you."Closing her eyes, Coco hugged Lucas gently. "I wish I had met you earlier too."Coco wondered how it would be if she had been the one who had met him and saved him in the mountains. Would they have suffered less hardship in their relationship? On second thought, that was impossible. Coco would still have been a child and maybe not even able to talk.Coco chuckled at her thoughts."What's wrong?" Lucas asked, feeling strange."Nothing. I just thought… I was still in kindergarten when you were in middle school. I wonder if we ever met as kids." C

"I’d prefer a girl," Lucas said, his expression solemn. "Why don't we have a daughter first? You can do whatever you want with our son later," Lucas said with all seriousness."But I can't do this alone," Coco blurted out."Yeah, I know. I'll help," Lucas whispered.Coco's cheeks reddened with a blush. She quickly realized what she had said. "I mean… I'm not having a baby!""I…" she stammered, hiding herself behind the albums."If you want, I'm always available," Lucas offered.Coco continued browsing the photos, her face even redder because of Lucas' reply. Lucas often said things that made her blush. He seemed to be more talkative now.There were a bunch of photos in the album from Lucas' childhood to teenage days. Lucas was young and adorable as a boy. In middle school, he had grown taller and begun to have a hint of rebellion in his eyes.By the time Lucas was in high school, he seemed colder, his face an unreadable mask. He had bangs, and his nose, lips, and height were

“……” 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
