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
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
This time, a different man was requesting her help with his tie. Serenity wondered how long their relationship would last this time, but ultimately, she did not know the answer.Serenity and Jackson had feelings for each other. Despite their love at the moment, she dared not think about their future. Even if he did not care about the fact that she could not have children. Their differences had always been an unsurmountable gap. Even if they dated, would there really be a future between them?"What's wrong?" His voice interrupted her train of thought."It's nothing. Y-you... Bend forward a little," Serenity said. She found it hard to reach his neck with their height difference. Jackson obediently bent down, effectively bringing their faces closer to each other.Serenity raised her hand and gently lifted his collar. She then wrapped the tie around his neck and made a knotted tie at his throat."You know what? It feels like I'm putting my life in your hands now," Jackson murmured
Sure enough, what the person said next confirmed her guess."Well, we're not looking for trouble. How about this? You'll return the money we paid for the 20 meals and compensate us with 750 dollars for damages. After all, some of us have already started eating the food you sent us. Who knows if there are any bugs in the remaining lunch boxes?!"After he had finished speaking, several other people stood up and surrounded Serenity, clearly trying to pressure her.Serenity looked around at her surroundings. She was in a semi-public place. The crew had rented a cafe for the shooting. From where she stood, there was a surveillance camera to her left. Since the crew had used the cafe as a filming location, Serenity wondered if the surveillance camera was actually working. There were some fans hanging around further away. Although blocked from entering the filming area, the fans lurked around the filming location. Some were squatting and resting, while some held their phones up, waitin
Serenity did not want these people to ruin Clare's hard work and business. Perhaps her sense of justice had awakened in her again. After all, she had previously studied and worked hard to become a lawyer because she believed justice must be seen to be done.The people around Serenity glanced around. The look on their faces changed a little, and some obvious concern was present in their eyes.As Serenity decided to leave, one of them grabbed Serenity's arm forcefully to stop her from leaving. The force was so strong that Serenity accidentally dropped her phone to the ground.Someone saw the screen on her phone recording the conversation, and the guy’s face turned ugly as he yelled, "Bro! She's recording!" "What?! D*mn! How dare you trick us?!" One of them shouted and cursed in anger. He raised his hand in the heat of the moment and was about to hit Serenity, completely forgetting that he was in a semi-public place with many onlookers. Many fans of the cast members were hanging arou
"What's going on here?" Lucas directed his question to Serenity only. He did not ask anyone else, as if he only trusted Serenity."They found a bug in one of the lunch boxes I delivered earlier and demanded a free meal and additional compensation of 750 dollars. I thought it'd be better to leave this matter to the police, but there was a conflict when they found out I was recording with my phone," Serenity explained."Recording?" Lucas arched an eyebrow. "Do you mind sharing it with me?"When they heard Lucas's request, the surrounding crew’s faces turned uglier. Lucas's face darkened after he finished listening to the recording. He understood the dispute clearly. The crew members had tried to scam Serenity for money, which led to the conflict later.The director, assistant director, and field manager were with Lucas and understood what was happening. Everyone's faces turned grave. It would be embarrassing for the public to learn about this incident!The person in charge could s
Prince Lucas's ex-girlfriends came from all classes. Their fate varied—some had a good ending, but some ended terribly. Even so, countless women still flocked to Lucas, wanting to be his girlfriend.The netizens even discussed Prince Lucas online. His good looks were to die for, and they would willingly follow him even without his status as Prince Lucas of the entertainment industry. Everyone was shocked at the turn of events and gasped in disbelief as they watched Lucas help Serenity with her shoelace. Lucas tied the shoelace and finally withdrew his hand reluctantly as he rose to his feet."T-thanks." Serenity felt a little awkward. She then kept her head down and hastily left the scene.Meanwhile, in the cafe at the shooting location, Aria looked through the glass window from her seat inside. She went wide-eyed at what Lucas had just done, her beautifully manicured nails digging into her palm.'Serenity... Why? Why must they meet again?!' Lucas had even taken the initiative
Serenity hesitated for a second. "No. I happened to meet someone I knew in the crew... He helped settle the matter." "Is he a friend? We must thank him! Shall I get him a gift of appreciation later? Could you help deliver it to him?" Clara asked hurriedly."No need," Serenity said and quickly changed the subject, moving on to enquire about Yanny's cochlear implants."Yanny's medical report will be out in a couple of days. If there's no problem, he'll proceed with the cochlear implant surgery." Clara could not hide the joy on her face. "I've spoken to the hospital, and they said that I could apply for a partial fee waiver to ease my financial situation.""That's great," Serenity said, relieved and happy to know that Yanny would be able to hear soon. She knew that Jackson was the one who had made the arrangement with the hospital. The incident during the lunch delivery soon passed just like an episode.Serenity thought it was over, but she did not expect Clara to ask her about it
