"Should be," Clara said. "I’ve heard Serenity talk about that boy's mother before. She's been using her son's relationship with Jackie for personal gain."Coco frowned. With the Valor family's status in Solaria, if someone were to exploit their connection with the Valor family for personal gain, they could certainly benefit greatly. However, going too far would surely lead to trouble."Serenity said Morris is a good kid – polite and humble, and never steps out of bounds," Coco said."It’s a pity his parents aren’t great people, especially his mother. Serenity mentioned she has a gambling addiction," Clara added."If Serenity has to go back to handle it herself, the problem must be serious," Summer said.On the way home, Serenity gathered more information about the situation. In short, Marissa Yale had been using her connection with the Valor family to borrow money for gambling. She kept borrowing without paying back. Some people lent her money in hopes that she could facilitate

"$1.2 million – these are the IOUs!" The creditors displayed the notes, all bearing Marissa's signatures and fingerprints.Serenity's expression darkened. For an ordinary person, $1.2 million was no small sum. She did not expect Marissa to accumulate this much gambling debt.Marissa tried to defend herself. "I... I just wanted to earn more money to give Morris a better life. I didn't expect to lose so much! Mrs. Valor, you have to help me. If you help me pay these debts, I... I promise I’ll do everything I can to make it up to you."Serenity understood her intentions all too well. She fixed Marissa with a cold stare, her icy gaze making Marissa shiver."$1.2 million – why should I help you?" Serenity replied frostily."But... but just now... you said...""Just now, I told Morris I would help you, but I didn't say I’d cover your debts. I can prevent them from using violence, but I won't stop them from suing you. The judge will decide whether to send you to jail or not," Serenity

"And they agreed?" Jackson asked."What else could they do? I made it clear I wouldn’t help Marissa pay the debts, so they had no choice but to accept for now," Serenity replied.Jackson chuckled softly. "I thought you might actually help her pay."After all, $1.2 million was not that big of a deal for them. Jackie and Morris got along well, so he thought Serenity might feel pity for Morris and give in."I'll never help anyone pay their gambling debt. Helping her this time would only encourage her to gamble again. This will teach her a lesson, making it less likely for her to repeat the mistake. Plus, what I said to her creditors will spread, letting everyone know that the Valor family is not her backer. She won't be able to borrow money anymore," Serenity explained.She hoped Marissa would quit gambling before the Yale family was ruined."Do you think she’ll understand your good intentions? She probably resents you right now," Jackson reminded her."It doesn’t matter. I’m more

However, Serenity believed girls should know some fighting techniques for self defense.Taking this opportunity, she persuaded her husband to let their daughter learn self-defense.After hearing what she had to say, Jacqueline lowered her head for a moment, contemplating, and then nodded. "Okay, but in two months, I want to go back to learning piano with Morris.""Alright," Serenity smiled."I’ll tell Morris," Jacqueline said."Mommy will talk to him," Serenity replied. Kids may not be able to keep a secret very well, especially considering Morris must be in a state of shock after what just happened.Serenity wanted to shield Jacqueline from the fact that Marissa was using her relationship with Morris for personal gain.She didn’t want Jacqueline to overthink her friendship with Morris. Children should remain carefree."But I want to see Morris," Jacqueline insisted."How about this? You learn some self-defense techniques first. After you’ve learned them, you can show them to

Turning to her daughter, she said, "Mommy needs to go to the office for a bit. The driver will take you home. Make sure to finish your homework, okay?""Okay," Jacqueline replied. She was used to her Mommy's unpredictable work schedule.After giving the driver some instructions, Serenity headed to the law firm.On the way back to the Valor Residence, Jacqueline suddenly told the driver, "Uncle Paul, can we stop by Morris’ house? I want to give him a music score."It was a piece she had just learned, and she was eager to show Morris."Um..." the driver hesitated because Serenity had instructed him to take Miss Jacqueline straight home."It’ll only take a moment. I’ll just give him the score and chat for a bit," she insisted. She really missed Morris because she hadn’t seen Morris for several days.After some hesitation, the driver agreed.After all, Jacqueline was also his employer! He did not want to get on Jacqueline's bad side. A smile brightened Jacqueline's face.Soon, t

Morris quickly emerged from the house. Upon seeing Jacqueline, his eyes brightened.Jacqueline thought she would be happy to see him, but now that she did, she couldn’t feel any joy at all."I want to talk to Morris outside for a bit, is that okay?" Jacqueline asked Marissa."Oh, why outside? Why not come in?" Marissa warmly suggested.But Jacqueline insisted, "Outside is fine."Marissa opened her mouth to argue but faltered when she met Jacqueline's gaze. Jacqueline was just a child, yet her eyes made Marissa feel an inexplicable sense of fear."Well... okay, you can talk outside," she relented."I want to speak with Morris alone," Jacqueline added.Though reluctant, Marissa couldn’t say no. The driver who came with Jacqueline stepped forward and said, "Please go back in."Marissa had no choice but to go back into the house. The driver stood at the door. Jacqueline turned to Morris and asked, "Did you befriend me just to gain something from me?""Huh?" Morris was taken aback

"Jackie..." Morris pleaded, his voice filled with embarrassment and guilt, "I... Can I still learn the piano with you? Even if you don’t want to be friends anymore, I still want to learn the piano with you. I’ll learn lots of pieces – whatever you want to hear, I promise I'll play it for you."His voice trembled with emotion.Jacqueline hesitated, but the things she heard earlier echoed in her mind. She tried to pull her hand free of his grip. "There's no need. I don’t want to hear you play the piano anymore. Morris, I don’t like being used, and I don’t want my family to be used either. I used to love your playing, but not anymore."With that, she got into the car with the driver, leaving him behind.The black vehicle slowly drove away, fading from Morris' view.He stood there, staring blankly at the departing car, his fragile body trembling with overwhelming fear.Does Jackie... hate him now?Would he never play the piano with her, attend classes together, or even see her anymo

He approached his daughter's room and lightly knocked on the door. When there was no response, he gently opened the door and stepped inside.As soon as he entered, he heard his daughter sobbing. The sound made Jackson frown, his heart aching for her. Among his children, Jackie took after Serenity the most, and she was also a girl, so she had always been his favorite. Seeing her cry filled him with deep sorrow.He walked over and said softly, "Jackie, why are you crying? Are you sad because the Yale family used you?"Jacqueline stiffened, then looked up at her father. Her tear-filled eyes deepened his heartache, and he began to regret his decisions.If he had known this would happen, he would have lied and said they couldn’t find Morris. She would have been disappointed, but it would have been better than seeing her in such pain."Don't cry. Just tell Daddy what you want. Whatever it is, Daddy will make it happen for you," Jackson promised.Through her sniffles, Jacqueline said,
