"Morris is my friend, but Fred, you are very important to me!" Jacqueline answered.

Frederick felt warm and fuzzy when he heard that. “So, are you saying that I’m more important than Morris?” He asked.

Jacqueline nodded.

Although she liked Morris’s piano playing and considered him a friend, Frederick was irreplaceable to her.

Frederick's expression softened as he murmured, "Jacqueline, you are the most important person to me.”

To Jacqueline, Frederick might only be “very important” because her world was filled with many significant people like her parents and siblings. But to Frederick, Jacqueline was his most important person, and he would do anything to protect her.

In the master bedroom, Serenity was having a discussion with Jackson.

"I think Morris is a good kid, but his parents—"

"Are suck-ups," Jackson interjected.

"I saw through their intentions. It’s understandable, though. Since Jacqueline likes Morris’s piano playing, by using their son, they could get some favo

    "No way," Jackson said and leaned in closer to Serenity. "You still look very young in my eyes.""You always know how to make me happy," Serenity murmured. "In a few years, I'll have wrinkles and white hair.” "I'll grow old with you at the same time," Jackson said and pecked her cheek. "Serenity, growing old with you is my greatest joy. Thank you for not giving up on me and bringing our children to find me back then."Serenity wrapped her arms around Jackson's neck. "Should I thank you for falling in love with me again even after you were hypnotized?""Yeah, you can thank me properly tonight." Jackson planted a kiss on her brows, nose, and finally her lips. In a husky voice, he added, "Don't even think about stopping before I’m satisfied."Even though they had been married for years, Serenity still couldn't resist Jackson.He was always so attractive in her eyes. A word or a glance from him could make her heart skip a beat.Soon, she responded passionately to his kiss. Gr

    As they wandered around, Coco suddenly stopped in front of a large display booth, her eyes shining brightly. “What’s wrong?” Lucas asked.“The third prize is a set of out-of-print comics,” Coco said. “I used to really like them. I remember reading them in the library back then, and now, you can’t find them anywhere. I can't believe they have them here. It’s a shame that they’re a prize.” If the comics were for sale, Coco would have bought them for her collection. Although these comics weren’t necessarily valuable, they held sentimental value for her.This set of comics was what inspired her to start drawing romance comics. She remembered how amazed she was the first time she read them. It never came across her mind that love stories could be told in such a way. Her craze for comics was partly due to this set of comics.“I’ll talk to the organizers and see if we can exchange something else for the third prize,” Lucas suggested.“No, that wouldn’t be fair. There are probably a l

    When the girls in the audience heard Lucas mention his "wife", they sighed in disappointment.“So, do you like comics?” the host asked.“I didn’t initially, but my wife loves it, so I gradually started to like it too,” Lucas replied.The girls in the audience immediately began to chatter again, wondering what Lucas's wife looked like. The contest consisted of two parts—a quiz and a game segment.The quiz segment involved answering various comic-related questions, some of which only seasoned comic fans could answer. Even Coco had to think hard about some of them, and there were a few she couldn’t answer at all.But to Coco’s surprise, Lucas managed to answer almost all the questions correctly. He was always the first to write down his answers, missing only two questions in total.The host, slightly skeptical, asked, “Did you really start liking comics because of your wife? How long have you been interested in it?”“Less than three years,” Lucas answered.“That's impressive,

    "He was smiling so tenderly at her!” "But his wife looks pretty ordinary, and it seemed like she had a limp when she walked! Maybe she's some rich woman, and he's her pet," someone speculated maliciously.However, another voice quickly countered, "Wait! That guy looked like Lucas! His wife does have a bit of a limp! It must be him, especially since he said his last name is Gomez!""Lucas?""The prince of the entertainment industry!"Suddenly, people around them started realizing who he was. Some began searching online for pictures of Lucas to confirm if the man they had just seen was indeed him.Moments later, someone in the crowd murmured, "The way he treated his wife made me believe in true love again."After Coco received her prized limited-edition comics, they didn’t continue exploring the comic convention much further. They had already seen most of what they wanted to.“Did you purposely calculate the scores just now? Is that why you purposely missed the last few throws?”

    Just then, a van suddenly pulled up and screeched to a halt in front of her. Two young men wearing masks and baseball caps dressed in black, rushed toward Coco, reaching out to grab her.Coco was too stunned to react. Before she could process what was happening, several other people emerged from the side, blocking the attackers.With a few moves, they had subdued the attackers. Seeing this, the driver of the van tried to flee the scene quickly.What happened next left Coco even more bewildered. Several cars surrounded the van, forcing it to crash into the divider.Coco’s eyes widened in shock as she recognized one of the people who had subdued the attackers. He was one of Lucas’s bodyguards."You...""Sorry for the fright, Mrs. Gomez," the bodyguard said respectfully.Coco was feeling bewildered rather than frightened.Lucas rushed over in an instant. “Coco, are you alright?” He asked anxiously. Coco shook her head absentmindedly, thinking he seemed more affected than she w

    Coco’s eyes widened. "All the time? So, you had these people following us from the first day we were here?""Not only here. It's been the same in Solaria too," Lucas said. "Coco, I lost you once, and I won't let myself make the same mistake twice."He couldn't afford to lose Coco again.At first, Coco wasn't too fond of being followed everywhere, but after today's incident, she knew that it was crucial. Lucas’s status naturally aroused greed in many people. And once greed took over their rationality, people would take desperate risks.Coco suddenly thought of something. "Wait. Did your bodyguards see us when we were... kissing by the roadside when no one was around?" Lucas awkwardly mumbled, "Maybe."‘It’s a yes, then,” Coco thought to herself while blushing. Then, she began looking around."What are you looking for?" Lucas asked."Looking for your bodyguards. Where are they now?" she replied."If you can spot them, I might as well fire them immediately.”Coco was at a l

    The person filmed the video from above, probably from a nearby residential building, so their faces weren't clearly visible due to the bird's-eye view.Despite this, the video attracted a large number of comments.To Coco's surprise, most of the comments were positive. People were saying how lucky she was, how romantic the situation was, and how Lucas protected her so well. They were envious of her. However, there were also a few negative comments mixed in between. "What are you looking at?" Lucas asked curiously."Someone filmed today's incident and posted it online," Coco said and showed Lucas the video.After watching it, he commented, "It's not bad.""If I had known we were being filmed, I would have dressed better.” Coco felt a little regretful. Since they were going to an anime convention, she had dressed casually and wasn't wearing any makeup."I’m head over heels for your looks. How much more attractive do you want to be?" Lucas’s eyes sparkled with a certain desire.C

    Coco wanted to know everything. Upon hearing this, Minnie sighed and agreed, "Alright, I'll tell you everything I know."-Lucas was on the couch looking through some documents when Coco returned to the villa. Hearing her footsteps, he looked up at her affectionately."Hey.” Coco suddenly rushed into his arms. "Lucas, I love you so much.""I know. I love you too." Although he was a bit puzzled by her sudden affection, he was very happy."From now on, I'll stay by your side, and I won't mind you having more bodyguards around me. The number doesn’t matter!" she continued."What's wrong? Is it because of the kidnapping attempt? Are you scared?" Lucas asked in confusion."Yeah, I’m a little shocked by it. So, please don't let me face any danger in the future, okay?"“Of course, don’t worry about it.” Coco rested her head on his chest, listening to the sound of his heartbeat.She was more afraid of what Lucas would become if he lost her again instead of being kidnapped.Co

    “……” 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
