"Don't mention it," Lucas replied in a calm voice. "Since it's a wish of yours, I'd gladly help you."

"You're so nice to me, Luke."

Lucas's heart trembled when he heard that nickname. For whatever reason, hearing it from the lips of this woman somehow irritated him.

"Just call me Lucas next time," he told her. "Luke is just a nickname I had when I was young."

"Okay," Lynette responded without raising any questions.

After all, she had only heard the name "Luke" from Serenity all those years ago. Back then, when she was still a little girl, Serenity had returned home with her dress all tattered and dirty. She had claimed that she had saved someone, but no adults at home believed her. They all just assumed that she was lying to cover up her own naughtiness, and she had even been spanked for it.

As for Lynette, because she still had a child's curiosity, she had asked Serenity exactly what had happened to her. That was when she had found out how Serenity had saved a little boy, and sh

    "A year?" Lisa repeated in a low voice, then asked, "Does that mean that you're going to postpone your wedding with Jackson?"Serenity nodded, "I haven't told him about it yet, though. I'll do it tonight and see what he thinks about it."Still, she had a hunch that he would agree to it because ever since they had started dating, he had always agreed to everything she asked.Lisa studied her friend's wearied, worn-down face and then suggested, "Why don't you come with me to the mall, Serenity? Terry wants me to attend a gala with him, and he told me to pick up a dress he ordered for me in a boutique at the mall nearby."To be frank, Lisa had never had any desire to attend any banquets or galas at all because she hated to be the center of people's attention, but Terry seemed to have gotten addicted to dragging her everywhere with him and just would not take no for an answer.What was even more exasperating was that when she gave him an excuse of being too busy having to work overtim

    "I'm only here with a friend," Serenity replied in a flat tone. "If you want someone to help you choose what to buy, you'd better ask that lady over there. She's the shopping consultant."And so, Lynette awkwardly went off toward the lady standing nearby for her help.Just then, Lucas walked up toward Serenity and told her, "Don't be too sad about your grandma. Everyone dies in the end. Some people just get there before others."Serenity raised her eyes to look at him. Was he trying to... comfort her? Lucas's tall and slender frame was clad in a dark silvery gray suit, and his handsome face was set in a cold and indifferent expression. The Prince of the Entertainment Industry had always been infamous for being a cold and distant man, known for switching from one girlfriend to another, but nobody could guess who his next girlfriend would be. 'Would it be Lynette?' Serenity thought suddenly. After all, Lucas had chosen all those other women in the past to be her cousin's substitut

    "What were you two talking about just now?" Lynette asked, full of suspicion. "Why did you suddenly..."But the words that came out of Lucas's mouth next shocked her to the core."How did you know that my nickname is Luke, Serenity?"In an instant, Lynette's body was covered in goosebumps. She stared at Serenity in disbelief. Did she... Did she just call this man Luke just now?!Did it mean that Serenity had regained her memory?!When she thought of how she would lose everything she had right now the instant Serenity regained her memory, Lynette felt so dizzy she thought she might lose her balance."So, is it true?" Serenity asked, her brows furrowed. "Is your nickname really Luke?"In other words, that boy in her dreams really was Lucas, right? And in that case, did it mean that everything she had seen in those dreams had actually happened as well?"Tell me exactly how you know about this nickname!" Lucas once again demanded."It was me!" Lynette suddenly interjected. "I was

    For some reason, she felt a dull pain in her heart when she heard those words from him.***After hearing Serenity's explanation about the connection between Lucas Gomez and Lynette Blossom, Lisa's jaw dropped, and she mumbled, "That's just way too dramatic!"Who would have thought that the real woman that the Prince of the Entertainment Industry, who had been changing from one girlfriend to another for ages now, had been looking for was actually her best friend's cousin?!"Then why did he grab your arm in the boutique just now?" Lisa asked.Serenity considered it and replied, "I asked him a question, but it looked like... I must've touched a sore nerve or something."What truly made her wonder was why her cousin would say that she was the one who had told her about Lucas's nickname, because she had absolutely no memory of Lynette telling her about saving a boy before, much less mentioning the nickname Luke to her.But she had no time to ask Lynette about it before they left."

    Serenity felt as if she was being pressured into marrying Jackson."To tell you the truth..." she began, "I don't think we're that different from a married couple right now."She thought of how they had been living together for a while now and how they had even been sleeping together every night. The only difference between them and an actual married couple was nothing but a marriage certificate—a mere piece of paper."There's a world of difference!" he murmured in a husky voice. "Right now, everyone regards you as Ms. Lewis, not Mrs. Valor. But I want you to be completely mine, and I want to be completely yours!"This only made Serenity feel like Jackson was giving too much weight to that mere piece of paper, so she blurted out, "But married couples get divorced all the time, you know."In the next instant, Jackson's expression changed dramatically. His deep dark eyes became even more unfathomable now."So you're saying that even if we do get married, we'll get divorced one day,

    Serenity dragged her sore body into the bathroom and took a quick shower. She was about to go downstairs when her phone rang. It was a call from Lynette.As soon as she picked it up, she heard her cousin's voice ask, "Are you free today, Serenity? I've got something to talk to you in person about."Serenity considered it for a moment then answered, "Okay, let's meet up."What a coincidence. Serenity was just thinking about asking Lynette about Lucas's nickname and asking her why she had said she used to talk to Serenity about saving Lucas when they were younger.Afterward, when the two met up, the first thing Serenity noticed when she saw Lynette was how she was wearing expensive designer brands from head to toe in the latest style, complete with a pair of seven-inch high stilettos, and how she was carrying a handbag made of crocodile skin. Her hair was luxuriously curled, her face was delicately made up, and she was even wearing a pair of sunglasses.At a glance, she looked just

    With her chin raised haughtily, Lynette told Serenity, "I'm not afraid to be blunt with you now—I won't lie and say that I'm not at all touched to find out that Lucas had been looking for me all these years, and now that I'm divorced, I have every right to pursue my own happiness. I'm aware that you and Lucas knew each other before, and I've heard that he mistook you for me for a while, but in the end, you're still not me, aren't you? So I hope that you'll be more careful with your words and behavior from now on. It will be best for everyone that way."Lately, Lynette would get dressed up by a professional stylist every day, and with this kind of help, she managed to look like a celebrity even though her looks had been ordinary at best, and naturally, her self-confidence had soared ever since. She now felt that the reason why she looked so plain and ordinary in the past was simply because she had not dressed herself up very well. As long as she wore nice clothes and put on good make

    When Serenity suddenly opened her eyes, she realized that she had been dreaming about the little boy and little girl again, but this time, she had woken up as soon as the boy fell to the ground!She looked up, and her eyes met with Jackson's familiar pair of eyes, but in that instant, his eyes looked dark and gloomy, like a deep bottomless sea."Were you dreaming just now?" he asked softly, but his voice sounded so distant."Yeah," she nodded. She glanced at the clock on the wall and discovered that it was already two in the morning. "Did I wake you up?""No," he replied. "I couldn't go to sleep just now. What were you dreaming about? You look so pale."Serenity was about to answer him, but she suddenly realized at the last moment that she had no idea what to say. Should she tell him about the girl and the boy in her dreams, and that she thought that the boy was probably Lucas Gomez?Jackson had always hated the fact that Lucas always mistook Serenity for a girl he was looking fo

    “……” 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
