"I... I'm sorry!" she apologized in a hurry as the pain on her wrist and in her head subsided."Why did you touch me? Also, why did you call me by that name? Serenity, do you really have no feelings for me at all?" He stared at her intensely.Her pale face turned red. "I... It's a misunderstanding!""Misunderstanding?" He suddenly laughed. "Then tell me, what kind of misunderstanding would make you call me by my nickname again and again and make you touch my face?"She bit her lower lip and could find no answer. She could only say, "It's not what you think. I won't do it again. I had a headache just now, so I mistook you for someone else.""Mistook me for someone else?" He hissed, "You called me Luke!""You're not the only person in the world called Luke!" she retorted.She suddenly caught sight of Lisa nearby, so she told Lucas, "My friend is here. I'm getting off. Let me go."Lucas stared at Serenity with fiery eyes. The tension in the air was almost palpable.A moment later
Jackson stared at the photos displayed on his phone screen. They were photos of Lucas Gomez pulling Serenity into a car.The photos had just been posted online and had already become a sensation.Many people were speculating about the relationship between Serenity and Lucas.Connor looked timidly at his boss, who was staring gloomily at the phone in his hand. He mustered up the courage to say, "Err... Mr. Gomez appeared too suddenly. The bodyguards who were protecting Miss Lewis in secret didn't even have time to react..."Jackson's eyes remained on the phone. He gripped the phone harder with every passing second."Wipe these contents from the internet. I don't want to see them anymore." A moment later, Jackson coldly gave the order."Yes, Mr. Valor," Connor immediately answered. He left the CEO's office after that.In the quiet office, Jackson gently stroked the figure of Serenity on the phone screen. His finger eventually stopped at her wrist that was being held by Lucas.Luc
"Something happened when I was in the bookstore, and then I ran into Lucas Gomez," Serenity did not try to hide it from Jackson.After all, she did not want him to find out from someone else. It might cause misunderstanding.His eyes landed on her face, "What happened?""A guy kept filming me with his phone and wouldn't stop. A lot of people crowded around us. To help me, Lucas brought me to his car and drove me away. He put me down at a quiet spot a few hundred meters away from the bookstore, where I met up with Lisa."She told him the gist of the story."Jack, I don't want you to misunderstand. Lucas simply happened to be there today. It was a total coincidence," said Serenity.If there was anything different about her feelings towards Lucas, it was only because her strange dreams confused her.His eyelashes fluttered gently. He then reached out and pulled her into his embrace, "I’m not gonna misunderstand because I know that the man you love the most is me. Right?""Of cours
"I'm... your Jack. I belong only to you," he murmured and kissed her once again.To other people, he was the high and mighty Jackson Valor, but in front of her, he was just Jack who craved her love!He was so in love with her!He loved her so much that he was willing to let down his guard completely and submit to her.All he wanted... was for her to love him back!Lynette Blossom stared at her phone in disbelief. She could no longer find the content that she was looking at a moment ago.Someone posted photos of Lucas holding Serenity’s hand on the internet earlier. Those photos stung Lynette.Lynette was the one Lucas believed saved him when he was a child! Why would he still help Serenity and pull her into his car?In the photos, he showed Serenity a lot of concern!If Lucas knew that the person he was looking for was actually Serenity... Lynette did not even dare to think what would happen.Suddenly, she heard someone say, "Why is she still staring at her phone? All the la
His hair was usually neatly combed, but it was slightly ruffled at the moment with a few strands of hair dropping down to his forehead. His handsome face was usually cold and indifferent, but right now, it looked disoriented and lonely.He was holding a small silver bracelet.His eyes were fixed on the bracelet.Lynette's feelings were complicated when she saw the bracelet.After Lynette assumed Serenity's identity, Lucas did not give her the silver bracelet. Instead, he kept it.Sometimes, he would look at the bracelet even though she was right next to him, as if he was looking at something through the bracelet.What was he looking at? Serenity when she was little? The thought drove Lynette crazy with jealousy."Lucas," Lynette bit her lip and tried to look sad, "Why didn't you come pick me up from school? Why are you drinking alone here? Don't you know how worried I was about you? I was afraid that something might have happened to you."Lucas slowly looked up and smiled gentl
After nearly four years of not touching any professional law books, Serenity thought her knowledge would be very rusty and she might not be able to memorize the legal provisions.But she quickly found that she could remember them very quickly, just like old times. She browsed through the various cases and absorbed the experiences of her seniors like a sponge.Perhaps the void of the last four years made her brain eager to fill in these blanks with knowledge.Serenity went through the thick law books with great fervor.A new desk had been placed next to Jackson's desk in the study specifically for Serenity.Serenity read the books seriously. Out of habit, she would mark down the parts that she had questions about so that she could look them up later.Serenity was fully absorbed in the books and did not notice Jackson staring at her from the side.He had never seen what she looked like when she was a lawyer. Even when she became a prisoner, he did not spare her a glance.The firs
But then, what about Lynette?However, if it was confirmed the dreams had nothing to do with amnesia, it would mean that she was just having those dreams because she heard Lynette talking about her experiences when they were children. If she told Jackson about the dreams now, she might make him paranoid for no reason.She would tell him after she made sure."Should I book a specialist for you?" asked Jackson.The specialist he mentioned would definitely be top-notch."No, it's fine, I've already made an appointment with a doctor tomorrow. Let the doctor take a look at it first," replied Serenity."Then I'll go with you tomorrow," said Jackson."It's just for a headache. I'll be fine by myself. Tomorrow's a weekday, so you have to work," Serenity quickly said. After all, she was going to the doctor to consult about her dreams, so it would be rather inconvenient if he was there.The light in his eyes flickered slightly, but his eyelids drooped down, hiding his eyes with his lon
If the dreams were indeed her memories, then she was indeed the person Lucas had been searching for. What should she do then? What would be her next step? Should she tell Lucas about it?Would it only cause more trouble eventually?But... if she did not find out the truth... there would be a bottomless hole in her heart which would cause her constant anxiety.While Serenity was lost in thought, her phone rang. She picked up the call and heard a familiar voice. It was a call from Jackson. "How did it go? Have you seen the doctor?""Yeah, I have," replied Serenity."What did the doctor say?""He said it's nothing serious. He asked me to come back if the problem lingers," she said somewhat guiltily. After all, she had always believed that a couple should be honest to each other, but now, she was actually lying to him."That's great. There's a trade show tomorrow that you should go with me. I'll ask the driver to take you to Color Delight to pick a gown and jewelry," said Jackson.
