My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 3239
Even though Fred was only 10 years old, he was more mature than other kids his age. He understood what it meant to like someone.That boy called Morris liked Jackie too!He was acutely aware of this fact.He heard Jacqueline say "Start!" in the video, and Morris started playing.After Fred heard Morris playing the piano once, he immediately understood why Jacqueline liked it.Morris played with soul. Even though he wasn't that skillful and the transitions were sometimes rough, it had an undeniable charm.Fred could also play the piece called "Chasse-neige" that Morris was playing. In terms of technique, he could blow Morris out of the water.Yet, his own performance felt robotic, lacking the soul that Morris displayed. Even his piano teacher had noted that, while his technique was good, his playing lacked the quality to move people.Morris possessed exactly what he lacked!Was this what they called talent?Fred's talent lay in techniques, while Morris' was in expressiveness

Therefore, the piano wasn’t the most important thing after all!He had other, more important goals."I understand," Fred said."If you do, go to bed. There’s work to do tomorrow," Weston said.Fred nodded and left the piano room with his father.However, as he walked out, he glanced back at the piano, seemingly deep in thought.Weston patted his shoulder. "You’ve made the decision, so don’t regret it."Fred pursed his lips, looked up at his father, and with determination in his eyes, said, "I won’t regret it!"Half a month later, Fred suddenly visited Solaria one weekend. He claimed that Weston had business in Solaria, and he tagged along. Weston naturally did not expose his son’s lie. He didn't actually have to come personally; he could have just sent his subordinates to handle the business. The real reason he visited Solaria was because Fred missed Jacqueline.At the Valor Residence, Morris met Fred for the first time. Though Jackie had shown him pictures of Fred, he th

"Fred, thank you!" Jacqueline hugged Fred tightly with a smile. Morris felt a twinge of envy.A while later, Jacqueline led Morris to the piano and asked him to play a piece for everyone. After receiving proper piano lessons, Morris' skills had improved significantly. A lot of the spots in his playing that were previously rough had been corrected.Fred listened quietly, his expression unusually serious. Hearing Morris' performance live stunned him even more than it did in the video. He began to understand why Jacqueline was so fond of Morris' piano playing.This kind of emotional depth was something that he would probably never achieve. In terms of pure piano talent, he knew he had already lost to Morris. As his teacher had once noted, while he could already match many professional pianists technically, his playing lacked emotional resonance.He simply could not infuse his emotions into his piano playing.After the piece concluded, Jacqueline turned to Fred and asked, "D

Marissa took a closer look at the watch and searched its brand online on her phone. The result made her gasp. "Heavens, this Master Stanton is really wealthy! The price of this watch is $40,000!"Fernando was shocked to hear that. A $40,000 children's watch was something only the richest families could afford.Morris stared at the watch in his hand in disbelief. This watch... is worth $40,000? He knew that his parents made less than $3,000 a month combined. They would often sigh about how hard it was to make money.The watch was worth more than his entire family's annual income! Suddenly, he felt a profound "gap" between himself and Master Stanton, as well as between himself and Miss Jacqueline. Master Stanton and Miss Jacqueline belonged to the same social class, and it was a social class that was beyond his reach.Fred and his father did not stay in a hotel during their visit to Solaria; instead, they stayed at the Valor Residence, which had plenty of guest rooms.Jacqu

He wanted to stand next to her in the future without anyone saying he couldn’t!All of this required him to work hard and keep growing stronger."Okay," Jacqueline said, reaching out her pinky finger to link it with his. "Let’s make a pinky promise. When you get what you want, you have to tell me!""Okay," he smiled faintly. When that day came, he would definitely tell her that what he wanted was her!A month flew by in the blink of an eye. When Clara received a call from the bridal shop saying her wedding dress was ready, her mind went blank for a moment, and then, she was suddenly filled with anxiety.With the wedding dress ready, it meant the time for taking wedding photos was approaching. And once the photos were taken, she would have to say the secret phrase to lift Wilson’s hypnosis. No one knew how he would feel about her after the hypnosis was lifted.Yet, she knew she had to do it. She didn’t want to live in constant fear; she wanted to continue living happily with hi

The receptionist fell silent, astonishment evident in her eyes. So, that woman was the legendary wife of the CEO!Her story had circulated throughout the company, and it could only be described as legendary. She was once the CEO's girlfriend, but she was dumped, went to prison and gave birth to an illegitimate child. Yet, despite all that, she ended up with Mr. Birch again, marrying him and even giving birth to a second child. How many women could claim such a history?She was truly a fighter among women!The receptionists thought the CEO's wife would be sharp, perhaps even domineering. But the woman they just met was reserved and gentle, exuding elegance – a stark contrast to her expectations. So their CEO preferred that kind of woman.Clara took the elevator to Wilson's office. The secretary recognized her and immediately greeted her, "Mrs. Birch, Mr. Birch is in the office."With that, he led the way.At the office door, the secretary lightly knocked twice before pushi

She wondered if he saw what she looked at. If he did, would he guess her plan? He had told her that if she wanted to say the secret phrase to lift the hypnosis, it was best to do so without him knowing, because if he was prepared, it might fail."What's up? Do you need anything?" she asked, changing the subject."Something came up, so I have to go to a meeting. I might be going home late tonight. If you want to go home first, I can ask the driver to take you," he said."No, it's okay, I’ll wait for you. I’ll call my mom to let her know we’ll be home late," she replied.His eyes flickered slightly. "Alright, I’ll see you after the meeting."After he left, Clara looked around the spacious office, then approached his desk. There, she spotted a photo of herself.It was from their first year of dating. Her bright smile captured a moment of carefree happiness.But those days of carefree happiness had ended far too soon.She gently touched the photo, surprised that Wilson had kept

"You could have just woken me up," she said."There’s nothing wrong with me carrying you. We're husband and wife," he responded.Well... he's not wrong."Also, next time you want to nap in my office, ask the secretary for a blanket. It can get pretty cold in there with the air conditioning," he added."Okay, I will," she replied, noticing the blanket now covering her. Men could be quite thoughtful, sometimes even more so than women."Oh, right! Why do you..." she suddenly thought of something, but after she started, she hesitated."What's wrong? Is there something on your mind?" he prompted.Clara bit her lip and asked, "Why do you put that photo on your desk?"Though she didn’t specify which photo, he understood immediately.Because there was only one photo on his desk!"Because I really like it, and I regret it," he said.She looked puzzled. She understood the liking part, but regret?"What do you regret?" she asked.Suddenly, he pulled over to the side of the road, then

“……” 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
