My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 312
Lisa's red face turned white, and her lips trembled slightly. Finally, she uttered, "Sorry."After all, Lisa was the one who had given Terry all those empty promises."You should feel very sorry for me," Terry said.There was then a brooding silence in the car. After some time, they arrived at their destination. Lisa followed Terry out of the car only to find herself at the same villa yesterday.Lisa stopped dead in her tracks when she remembered how Terry had detained her last night. "What's wrong? Are you afraid to go in?" Terry turned to Lisa.Lisa's lips twitched slightly. She managed a smile. "If you have something to say, let's say it outside."Terry said with a half-smile, "Lisa, if I wanted to, I have many ways to detain you. I swear it would not be easy for Jackson to take you away this time."Lisa was stunned. After a short hesitation, she ground her teeth and mustered her courage. Did he think she was afraid of him? Even if Terry wanted to harm her, Lisa had no powe

"It's... delicious." Lisa's words almost got caught in her throat, and her mouth was filled with the taste of the cocktail.The glass of cocktail was meant to be savored slowly, but she had finished it in one go."Tell me, Terry. What do you want for me? How do you plan to vent your anger?"Lisa became bolder and spoke louder, perhaps under the influence of alcohol.Terry's gaze darkened. "You'll pay me back for what you owed me back then."She cocked her head, her round eyes wide open at him. She seemed lost in her thoughts. "I just have to pay you back for what I owe you, then?""Yes," Terry said.Lisa got to her feet and shook her head. It seemed like the alcohol was getting to her. Her head felt a little dizzy all of a sudden.Sure enough, the cocktail was still as strong as ever. Lisa became bolder because of the alcohol and could do things she would not normally do.Lisa pulled the zipper of her jacket down and started to take off her coat.Terry narrowed his eyes. Seei

Terry had revealed to Lisa that he was an illegitimate child. Hearing that, Lisa had smiled heartily."So what? You are you. You're unique in this world. A man's achievement isn't determined by his birth but by hard work.""Don't you find my birth disgraceful?"How had Lisa answered him at that time? Lisa had given him a serious answer. "I think your parents are very irresponsible toward marriage. They should have gotten married after having children. If they didn't plan to get married, they should have kept their distance from each other or taken precautions from the beginning. Isn't there a saying that a relationship without a plan to get married is just dishonorable?" It was Terry's first time hearing someone's comment about his parents.However, did she know? There were other reasons behind his parent's relationship without a plan for marriage. How much personal interest was involved in their decision? For his father, marriage was just a matter of choosing the right woman a

Terry looked at Lisa's sleeping face and took her hand in his.He had found her! She no longer existed only in his memory. She had actually appeared in front of him again!"You promised today. I won't allow you to go back on your word." Terry's whisper rang in the quiet room, the sound of her rhythmic breathing the only response to him.***Serenity returned to Valor Residenc after the interview. The interview was actually quite simple for her. The interview only looked at her health report and asked her some basic questions.Even though she was prepared for this, she was still nervous when the interviewer then asked why a law graduate like her wanted to be a delivery driver. She tried her best to explain in simple words and shared how her lawyer license had gotten revoked because she had been in jail for a traffic accident.The interviewer had not asked any further questions after that. He told her to go back and wait for the notice. At that instance, Serenity knew that she migh

Serenity was shocked. "What did you just say?""Didn't you hear me clearly, Sis?" Jackson repeated with a look of patience, "I was saying, if you don't like the company, it would be better to get rid of that company."Jackson spoke as if he was talking about something ordinary. But... Getting rid of the company?!Serenity was shocked. Had she understood it correctly? That company was a newcomer in the food delivery industry. Although it was not as big as the well-known companies in the industry, the company had had good momentum lately. Serenity had seen the recent news, and according to the news report, the company had successfully raised 2.5 billion dollars in a funding round led by some venture capitalists.How could such a company be dissolved so easily? But... If it was Jackson, then even the impossible would become possible."Just because I don't like it?" She asked, staring blankly at Jackson.Jackson smiled. "I don't like people who betray you, Sis. Even if I don't take

Where... Where was she?She was initially still dazed and confused, but then memories of what had happened earlier flooded her mind, and that made her sit up straight frantically.She... She had taken that cocktail and gotten drunk again!"Are you up?" she heard a voice ask her. Lisa froze, then slowly turned to her side. Sure enough, she saw Terry sitting on the sofa next to the bed, and his eyes were fixed on her."Yeah..." she answered awkwardly. "I'm up..."She then hastily climbed off the bed and checked her clothes. Seeing that they were all intact, she thought perhaps nothing happened after all. But just in case, she decided to ask him anyway."I didn't do anything after getting drunk, did I?""You did a lot of things," Terry replied nonchalantly. "Where do you want me to begin?"Lisa's jaw dropped. A lot of things... What exactly had she done?! Everything was a blur after she had gotten drunk last night. She could not remember anything at all! At least the last time i

"Fine," Lisa sighed, sounding as if she was resigned to her fate. If this was how he was going to get revenge, then at the very least, she was mentally prepared for it, so it would not be too bad in the end. "Can you, um... give me back my phone now?"She had not forgotten that the main reason why she had followed him to the mansion was to get her phone back.He scrutinized her for a few moments before picking up the phone on the nightstand and tossing it to her."Ah!" She yelped as she narrowly caught her phone in her hands. This phone had cost her a fortune and she had to save up for ages before she could afford it! If it really fell and broke the screen, she'd have to spend hundreds of dollars to fix it! It hurt her even thinking about it!Besides, if it did break, she would never dare to ask him to pay for the damages, anyway!Lisa then turned on her phone and noticed that it was already 9 pm. There were also several missed calls from her parents, so she called them right aw

Lisa was well-aware that she had a weakness for handsome men. She'd fall in love with this idol one day and a different one the next day, her adoration as fickle as the weather, but when it was all said and done, her love for each and every one of her favorite idols had always been serious and sincere!Each time when she was in love with a certain idol, she would be his most loyal and die-hard fan. She would never hesitate to spend money to go to his concerts, get his autograph, and do everything a fan would do. If the particular idol held a fan meeting, she was sure to attend.But all this happened before Serenity got into trouble, of course. She did not chase after celebrities as much as she did anymore because most of her time was spent finding a way to help her friend overturn the court's conviction.Because of this, all the recordings of her going to concerts, autograph sessions, and fan meetings were precious memorabilia of her idyllic youth. Yet now, all these beautiful memor

“……” 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
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
