My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 341
He was not in the room.Where could he be? Downstairs?But when Serenity went downstairs, she found that Jackson was not downstairs either.She did not know why she would go outside when she could not find him in the main house.The Valor Residence was really big. Outside the main house, there were the servants' rooms, the garden, other pavilions, as well as ponds and streams.In fact, having stayed at the Valor Residence for so long, she had never really taken a stroll through the Valor Residence. She was not sure how big it really was.It was the wee hours of the morning. Besides some lighting along the way, the whole place was dark.The night was a little chilly because of the wind. Serenity could not help pulling up her collar. She asked herself, why was she looking for Jackson? Was it because she was afraid that something might have befallen him?As if anything would happen to him in the Valor Residence!In the end, she could only tell herself that she merely wanted to ch

She hesitated for a moment before she said, "It's nothing. I noticed that you didn't go back to your own room after walking me to my room. Instead, you walked towards the stairs. I thought you might be up to something, so... uhh... since you're fine, I guess I'll go back..."She turned around, intending to leave.However, a pair of arms instantly hugged her from behind. "Sis, you were worried about me, weren't you?"Serenity instantly felt his scent enveloping her. She did not know what to say.Worried? Was she worried about him?Her mind was in a mess. Was it because he saved her tonight? That's why she did not think of him as Jackson Valor tonight, but as "Jack", so she was worried about him?While thinking that, she suddenly noticed the sound of his breathing near her ear becoming more rapid. He was also moaning softly in his throat. He slowly loosened his arms that were wrapped around her.Serenity turned around and saw that Jackson's face was pale. His forehead was drenched

"If you don't take medicine, what if the pain gets worse?" said Serenity. Suddenly, she thought of something. She took out her phone and browsed online pharmacies.Although some of the pharmacies were a little far away, she could just pay a higher delivery fee. The medicine would arrive in 20 minutes. It would be faster than waiting for a security guard to go out, buy the medicine, and come back.Serenity immediately made an order. She bought the same medicine she used to buy for Jackson. After that, her eyes fell on him again.He was curled up in pain. His lips were tightly shut as if he was trying hard to stop himself from groaning, but that made his breath sound even more painful.His eyes were closed. His long eyelashes made shadows on his lower eyelids like they were fans.The man who called the shots in Solaria seemed like a helpless, vulnerable child at the moment, as if he could only rely on himself to stop the pain.Serenity felt pity for him for some reason. He was the

Serenity told Jackson, "Wait here for a minute. I'll go get the medicine." After saying that, she ran out of the mourning hall.Jackson lay on the sofa. Wait for a minute?... Back then, when she went out in the middle of the night to buy medicine for him, she said the same thing.Okay, he would wait. He would wait for her to come back...Serenity rushed to the mansion's metal gate. The street lights outside the gate shone on the delivery man's bewildered face.Obviously, the delivery man did not expect to deliver medicine to such a luxurious mansion."Are you Miss Lewis?" the man asked."Yes, that's me," Serenity answered. She took the medicine from him and said thank you. She then turned around and ran back to the mourning hall.The delivery man scratched his head. Looking at the huge mansion before him, he could still hardly believe it.In the Valor Residence's security office, several security guards were watching the surveillance monitors with dumbfounded looks on their fa

He slowly opened his eyes. She really did... come back, just like last time. Even though she was scared of him, disgusted with him, maybe even hated him, she still could not bear to see him in pain, right? At the thought of that, even the pain seemed to subside a little.Jackson opened his mouth and swallowed the medicine that Serenity fed him.She could not help looking at his lips. As expected, she saw teeth marks there. He must have been in great pain earlier."If you keep looking at my lips like this, it'll make me think that you want to kiss me," Jackson said.Serenity suddenly came back to her senses. Her face instantly turned red. "I was just looking at your lips because they're bleeding. I don't have any other intentions.""Even if... you have other intentions, it's fine. If it's you, you can kiss me anytime you want," he said. Although his face was still pale and his forehead was drenched in sweat, he could talk normally now.Serenity looked away to avoid eye contact so

He would never tell anyone these things in the past, but at this moment, seeing her standing in front of his father's portrait, he told her so naturally.It was as if he could only pour out these words that were buried deep in his heart when he was talking to her."My father should have met many women back then. There were bound to be some who were even prettier than her, yet he gave up everything for such a woman. He's a fool," Jackson murmured."Your father may not necessarily love your mother because she's beautiful. When you love someone, looks may not be that important anymore. Furthermore... you'll like everything about them, be it the good or the bad," said Serenity.The light in Jackson's eyes flickered slightly. His eyes were fixed on Serenity's face. "Maybe... it's as you say. When you love someone, looks may not be that important anymore..."It was the same for him. He had seen women who were prettier and more considerate than Serenity, but only Serenity could make him

"What's wrong?" Serenity was puzzled to see Jackson stopping in his tracks."Nothing," Jackson looked back down and answered indifferently.When they returned to the main house, Serenity asked, "How are you feeling right now?""Much better," he replied."Even if the gastric pain is an old sickness, you still have to find time to go to the doctor and get treatment," said Serenity, "If you don't take care of it, it might develop into something serious.""Are you concerned about me, Sis?" he asked. The corners of his lips rose in a smile.She was stumped. She tried to go upstairs in embarrassment, but he pulled her into his arms. "Okay, I promise I'll go to the doctor. I will also take the medicine you bought every day. If I listen to you, will you like me more?""What?" She was exasperated. What was he talking about? Did he just say he would listen to her? Oh god, how was that possible? Was that something a man like him would say?He lowered his head and moved his face close to h

When Lisa could finally hang up, Serenity asked, "What did your mother say to you? You look like you're having a hard time.""What else? She set me up on a blind date." Lisa rolled her eyes. "My mother said the man this time is highly sought-after. She said it took a lot of effort to snatch him from the hands of other mothers. She wanted me to meet him."Lisa sighed helplessly.Her mother seemed to think that if she could not get married in the next two years, she would not be able to get married ever."Just go and meet him then. Take it as an opportunity," Serenity thought about it and said."Nah. I already have enough headaches. A blind date will only bring me more headaches." Lisa felt like coughing blood at the thought of her mother setting her up on blind dates."What's wrong?" asked Serenity.Lisa looked at her best friend and said, "Would you be surprised if I say that I'm dating Terry White?"Serenity almost choked on her own saliva. "You're dating Terry White? Didn't y

“……” 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
