My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 394
"I'm sure he will. Also, Clara, you still have a long way to go. It's a bit pessimistic to say such things. Who knows, the future might become more exciting," Serenity said.Clara looked somewhat surprised as she gazed at Serenity. "You seem different.""Different?" Serenity was puzzled."Yes, when you first came to my shop, you seemed weighed down by the world, as if life was about to crush you. But now, you seem to be shedding that gloominess and have hope for the future," Clara said.Did she have hope for the future? Serenity couldn't help but freeze. Was it because Lisa was helping her with the case? Or maybe... because she and Jackson had started anew?In the evening, when Serenity came out of the small restaurant, she noticed a car parked not far from the restaurant—it was Jackson's!The car door opened when she approached the vehicle. Jackson was sitting in the back seat, looking at her. "Get in.""But I was planning to ride my electric scooter back. It'll be inconvenie

Perhaps it was because of Serenity's past experiences that she was reluctant to rely too easily on what others gave her. Because once that reliance was gone, it would feel like another catastrophic event for her.Jackson stared at Serenity intently, and he lowered his gaze slightly after a moment. "If you still want to continue working here, that's fine. Let me know if you want to change jobs.""Okay," Serenity nodded, not rejecting Jackson's goodwill this time."Oh, have you had dinner while waiting outside for so long?" Serenity asked when she suddenly thought of it."Not yet," Jackson said."Why didn't you come into the restaurant to eat?!" Serenity exclaimed. Although it was a small restaurant, there was still a variety of food to choose from. As for whether he could eat such food, Serenity didn't think much about it. After all, when Jackson lived with her in the rented house, he would eat with her even if the meals were simple. He didn't seem to have any issues with it."O

Joy suddenly surged through Serenity. She never imagined that having Jackson's trust could make her so happy.Jackson stared at the person in front of him unblinkingly and continued to whisper, "But you also have to trust me. Believe me, if I had met you earlier, if I had known that I would love you this much, I would never let you suffer."Serenity was taken aback. Was he referring to what happened to her in prison, when those people hurt her maliciously just to please him?"Okay," Serenity softly responded.Regardless of their past, whatever had happened between her and him, maybe it was time to let go little by little.And since she wanted to get along well with him, she should also let go of that fear.After they finished their meal and the servants cleared the table, Serenity suddenly remembered something and said, "By the way, do you know any experts in cochlear implants?""What's the matter?" Jackson asked."Well, Clare's son, Yanny, might have to get a cochlear implant

Besides, Jackson was the Valor family's head. It was only natural for him to have heirs to inherit the family. Would the Valor family lineage end because of her? She had been naive before and had even forgotten to consider this matter when impulsively getting into a relationship with him.But how long could such a relationship last?Even in the cases she had dealt with before, in such a prestigious family, the existence of heirs was even more important than in ordinary households."What do you mean? What happened to your body...?" Jackson furrowed his brows and stared at her.She lowered her head, her gaze falling on her flat abdomen. "Once... I was beaten, and my uterus ruptured. Although I managed to escape with my life in the end, the doctor also said that the injury was severe and I might not be able to conceive in the future."To speak of these things was difficult for her, even somewhat unbearable. It was a sorrowful matter that she had buried deep within her heart.A sha

But now, it was different. As Jackson's love for Serenity deepened, he realized that there were things he didn't want if he couldn't have it with her. He would rather have nothing if he couldn't have it with her!Serenity stared at his face, which was so close to hers, and heard him say, "So I'll be the only one you'll rely on in your life."As he said that, he pressed his lips against hers. It was a tender kiss that made her powerless to resist.Rely on him... Could she really do that?...And so Serenity's relationship with Jackson began that way, which was somewhat unexpected for her but not an uncomfortable thought.Sometimes it made her feel like she had returned to their time together in the rental house.It was as if he had become "Jack" again, and she could unload her burdens and pain before him and relax in his presence."That's great. Thank you!" Clara's excited voice rang out as she spoke on the phone, catching Serenity's attention.She saw the usually dignified

"By the way, you have Saturday afternoon off, right?" Jackson looked at Serenity's flushed face and found it amusing."Yes. What's up?" she asked."Clear your schedule for the afternoon. I'll take you to the hospital for a full-body checkup," Jackson said."A checkup?" Serenity was a bit surprised."You probably haven't had any checkups in the past few years. It's good to have one every year," Jackson replied.She bit her lip and nodded. "Alright then." Jackson was right. When she worked at the law firm, they would arrange for checkups, but it had been almost four years without one since her imprisonment.Also, there was nothing wrong with getting a checkup.That night, when Serenity was about to sleep, Jackson said he wanted to sleep with her.Serenity's eyes widened. "You... you want to sleep here too?""What's the problem? We slept on the same bed when we were in the rental house, right?" Jackson calmly said.But the problem was, was it the same now? Back then, she saw h
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 400
Serenity couldn't bring herself to refuse, and by the time she came to her senses, she was already lying in bed with Jackson. She sighed and thought, 'So what if we're sleeping together? Whatever. It's not like we've never done this before.'But lying in bed now, she couldn't fall asleep because he was beside her. So Serenity decided to bring up a topic. "Why do you still call me 'Sis'?""Don't you like it when I call you that?" he asked.She hesitated for a moment. "It's not that I don't like it, it's just that... um, it feels a bit weird to be called that now that we're dating." If someone who didn't know them heard him call her that, they would probably think she was his birth sister. But in a way, she had gotten used to the term because he had been calling her that from the beginning."What if I call you by name in front of others?" he asked. "And I'll call you 'Sis' when it's just the two of us.""You... seem to really like calling me 'Sis'?" Serenity asked."Yeah," Jack
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 401
Serenity initially thought that she would not be able to sleep at night with Jackson by her side, but she drifted to sleep after closing her eyes and slept like a baby. She seemed to have gained a sense of peace of mind in his presence.Serenity woke up the next day and found Jackson in a white shirt. He was buttoning his cuffs as he walked toward her. "You're up.""Yeah." Serenity's cheeks were slightly pink. She had not washed her face nor brushed her teeth, and her hair was a total mess."Had a good sleep? I slept very well last night," Jackson said. He leaned forward and propped his hands on the edge of the bed, his dark eyes boring into her eyes.Serenity panicked a little as their eyes leveled. She reflexively leaned back a little. She almost tried to pull away from him, but he had his hand pressed on her back. With just a slight push, their distance was suddenly dangerously closer."Did you sleep well, Sis?" Jackson arched an eyebrow.Serenity stammered, "Y-yeah..." "Gre

“……” 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
