My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 629
Serenity finished washing her hands and was drying them with a paper towel when she noticed a figure walk up to her from behind. The other person was just as surprised as she was. “Serenity? What are you doing here?!” Serenity never thought she would bump into Liliana here. Instead of the suit she used to wear, she was dressed more like a janitor. “What? Is there a problem with me being here?” snapped Serenity harshly. Ever since Liliana had assigned her case to the newcomers at the firm, the seed of hatred had been sowed deep in Serenity’s heart. Back then, she used to think Liliana was just pettier than her other colleagues, but her “cruelty” turned out to be far more than she had anticipated. Liliana glared angrily at Serenity. It was now her turn to be the laughingstock of the firm. From an attorney, she had been demoted to a janitor. All this had happened thanks to Serenity. Who would have expected Lucas to retaliate for her sake?On the second day, she was ordered
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 630:
Liliana felt her cheek burn up as half her face went numb due to the slap. When she turned to face the person who had attacked her, she came face-to-face with Serenity’s boyfriend. “How... how dare you hit me?!” stuttered Liliana. “Am I not allowed to?” Jackson sneered back at her. The spiteful look in his gaze was a rare sight, even for Serenity. Yet here it was, on full display. “I-I’m helping you out here! You don’t even know that Serenity’s having an affair with Lucas Gomez! They...” Liliana endured the pain and tried her best to produce those words. And yet, she hadn’t finished speaking when she received another tight slap across the face. In mere seconds, Liliana’s cheeks were bright red. She could even taste the blood in her mouth. No doubt, that man didn’t hold back when he slapped her. However, that was nothing compared to how frightening his glare was. Those were... the eyes of a killer! In fact, something told her that this man was capable of killing her with t

As Jackson and the rest of the attorneys entered the conference room, the firm receptionist walked up to Liliana and demanded, “Give me your phone. I need to collect the recording you made just now.” “For what?” Liliana clutched her phone stubbornly. She was no fool. How could she hand over such a damning piece of evidence so easily?! The receptionist looked down at her as if she was staring at a fool. “It’s because the man you pissed off just now was Jackson Valor. The fact that I’m asking you to hand over your phone voluntarily is already a privilege. As long as you stop insulting Serenity from now on, they won’t do anything to you. Otherwise...” “What did you just say? That man was Jackson Valor?!” The receptionist was cut off mid-sentence. “That’s right. Mr. Valor brought Serenity here today to overturn her conviction!” Liliana’s eyeballs almost popped out of their sockets. Jackson... how could that man possibly be Serenity’s boyfriend?! It was impossible! The victim
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 632
Serenity was astonished, but she quickly understood what Jackson was trying to say. At the time, Mira was the heiress of her family and the acting President of the Hall Group. Although she had another sister, it was known to everyone that Jenny intended to work on her career as an actress. Mira, on the other hand, was raised to take over the family business. What’s more, she used to be Jackson’s fiance. More than anything, he feared that he might have to face the wrath of both their families. When she thought about this explanation, Serenity quickly realized why Yuri was willing to go through so much trouble to frame her. Looking at the evidence that was laid before her, she knew that once they filed the appeal, the chances of overturning her conviction were incredibly high. The only problem now was the fact that Yuri was hiding abroad. Even if she succeeded, it would be difficult to bring him to justice. After all, it was likely that he had picked a place with no extraditi

Serenity enjoyed the wine sip by sip, allowing it to marinate the inside of her mouth. Jackson drank along with her, filling her glass whenever it was empty. “Jack, don’t you feel life can be a little ridiculous sometimes?” murmured Serenity as she swirled the wine in her glass. “What do you mean?” “You see, back when I was first charged with the offense, every bit of evidence tied me to the crime. No matter what I said, everything was somehow refuted by cold hard evidence. In the three years I spent behind bars, I couldn’t help but ponder the truth behind this case. Who was it that did this to me? Can you imagine how much trouble one has to go through to build up such an impressive case...” A self-deprecating smile appeared on Serenity’s face.”I even analyzed everyone I knew, trying to figure out what I did to earn such a deep-seated hatred.” Every word that came out of her mouth struck his heart like a sledgehammer, causing him to wince inwardly with pain. She raised he

Jackson carefully dissected the meal and placed little bites into her mouth. If someone he knew were to witness this scene, their jaw would have dropped to the floor. After all, how could the high-and-mighty Jackson Valor dote over someone like this?! This scene naturally turned into the centerpiece of the bar. By this point, it was already evening, and the place was gradually filling up with people. It went without saying that this couple attracted quite a bit of attention. Jackson’s physical appearance made him the prime choice for the female patrons to strike up a conversation with. What made their hearts throb even more was the sight of him feeding Serenity so earnestly.To have a man like him look at you with so much affection in his eyes was a dream many longed for. Because of this, despite Serenity being by his side, many women were eager to try their luck with Jackson. After all, the bar was a place where miracles happened. It wasn’t long before a beautiful lady
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 635
The woman exclaimed inwardly at how scary this man had turned out to be. At that moment, she decided it was time to retreat. After all, there were plenty of fish in the sea! “I think... I think I’ll leave you guys alone...” she said with a mischievous smile. “Hold on.” The woman was about to walk away when Serenity called out to her. Judging from her expression, she looked slightly annoyed. Hold on? Like hell she was gonna continue hanging around their table. The woman ignored Serenity and continued walking away. In the end, it was Jackson’s voice that commanded her to stop in her tracks. “She told you to stop.” Huh? The woman was stunned. Before she could react, two burly men came up and blocked her path. Then, they forcefully escorted her back to their table.At this point, she regretted her decision to hit on this guy. From the looks of it, this man wasn’t the type she could afford to mess around with. Only God knew what lay ahead of her tonight. “Umm... let’s not r
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 636
Did this man really belong to her? Serenity failed to realize that she had said her thoughts aloud, because a moment later, she heard him say, “Yes, I am yours.” His voice was as beautiful as the sound of nature. Her lips instinctively made their way toward his. If he belonged to her, then... she should be able to kiss him whenever she wanted to! ***In the bar, the woman was still haunted by a lingering fear following her run-in with Jackson. That man... just who was he? To have bodyguards employed, he was no average Joe. While he was carrying his drunk girlfriend away, she noticed the wristwatch he was wearing and immediately recognized that it was a limited edition from a major luxury brand. If she recalled correctly, they had only made three of these across the world, and they cost... tens of millions of dollars each!She must’ve made a mistake, or maybe that man was just wearing a knockoff.But... what if he was wearing the real thing?! The thought of that possibili

“……” 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! The

"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
