Serenity seemed like she had changed her mind about the purple dress after hearing that Lucas liked purple. 'Is she… Is she trying to draw a line with me?' Lucas felt uncomfortable at the thought that flashed past his mind.***Each of the fitting rooms here was a separate room. The staff guided Lucas and Lynette to one of the VIP fitting rooms.When Lynette appeared in the same dress Serenity had worn earlier, Lucas simply glanced at her and said, "Not bad."Lynette knew she would not look as good as Serenity in this dress, especially when Serenity had already worn it before her. It felt like Lynette was imitating Serenity. After what had happened earlier, it would be hard for her to get another dress instead."Lucas, do you think I shouldn't have argued with Serenity about the dress earlier?" An aggrieved look spread across Lynette's face. "I-I just wanted to wear the purple dress to make you happy. I remember you said you liked purple when you were little."Lynette paused slig
The next moment, Jackson wrapped his arms around Serenity from behind. He let out his breath and moved his lips closer to her ear. "Sis, you're so pretty."Serenity's face flushed red. Doing that right here… The staff in the store were still around!"Hey… You shouldn't! People are watching!" Serenity warned softly, her face heating up again."So what? We're dating. Isn't it natural to hug?" Jackson said.Serenity looked up and faced the mirror. She had a shy smile on her face, wrapped in his embrace. The contrast between Jackson in a black suit and Serenity in a silver dress formed a sharp difference and strong visual impact.Suddenly, her eyes met his. The couple looked in the mirror, their gazes locked. Serenity stared at Jackson in the mirror. He rested his chin against her shoulder, his hair slicked back, revealing his forehead.His beautiful eyes exuded endless charm, his sexy lips parting to speak under his chiseled nose. "Sis, you're so beautiful." Serenity's face turn
Something fishy was going on with Lynette's strange behavior. Maybe it was what she suspected!'But… Is it really okay?' Serenity thought. If she guessed correctly, everything she knew would be different. Her relationship with Lucas would not be the same as before.Serenity only saw Lucas as another acquaintance. Even if things changed, Serenity could think of Lucas as nothing more than a childhood friend. At most, they shared a common experience when they were children. She would not treat him differently, but what about Lucas? What would he think?What about Jack? How would he react? Over time, Serenity had gradually grown to understand Jackson better, and she realized that Jack was extremely insecure in their relationship. Maybe his childhood experience had made him emotionally sensitive.Jackson was already very bothered about her relationship with Lucas. Serenity became even more hesitant about seeing the psychiatrist. She was worried about what he would think if her suspicion
Jackson would never let Serenity get her memory back! No matter what! He wanted to be the only one in her heart!*** It was late at night. Feeling tired, Serenity became drowsy. Jackson carried Serenity to the bathroom. He gently put her in a tub of warm water and bathed her. Serenity tilted her head back and fell asleep. Jackson gazed at her, madly in love. He loved her deeply. He loved her pretty face and found everything about her attractive.Serenity was fair-skinned. The old scars on her fair skin were very striking. She had gotten them when she was in prison.Whenever Jackson saw her scars, he felt guilty and heavy-hearted. Maybe it was a feeling he would never be able to get rid of. It would burden him as long as he loved her. The scars were not the only thing he saw. There were some red marks left on her skin. Jackson loved seeing his marks on her. It was like silent proof that she was his!After bathing her, Jackson carried Serenity out of the water. He wrapped her
"Let's see. I don't think anyone would try to humiliate you again," Jackson said nonchalantly. He gazed at Serenity with a gentle look on his face, smiling. "Besides, I'm all yours. What's the big deal about this?""But... ""If you really care, how about I let someone else be more embarrassed than you? Then you won't have to worry about it," Jackson said leisurely. Serenity did not know how to react. Besides, that was not the point at all.Soon, the car arrived at the venue for the trade show. Serenity had done her research before. Surely, many famous entrepreneurs from Solaria and other cities would attend the trade show.Trade shows such as this could promote cooperation and help many entrepreneurs expand their networks. The minimum requirement to receive an invitation to the trade show was set relatively high. Many small and medium-sized business owners could not obtain the invitation. Some people would even pay high prices to purchase an invitation online. After all, it was
The incident had devastated Serenity. She was heartbroken.Serenity's condition had improved after laborious medical and physical therapy to treat her fingers and joints. It had been a while since her fingers had last hurt.Seeing Zeke and Jenny again, however, reminded her of the pain. Jenny had tortured her by pulling out all her fingernails. The memories of the torture returned, hurting her hand again.A pair of hands wrapped around her trembling hands. "Your hands are so cold," said the elegant voice."I-I'm fine. It's just a sudden pain in my hand. I'll be fine in a while," Serenity said, realizing the pain she felt was less of a physical pain. Instead, it was more of a psychological pain. Jackson frowned slightly. He cupped his hands around hers and breathed softly into her hands.It was already July, so Jackson's action seemed very bizarre in the fully air-conditioned exhibition hall. Jackson rarely appeared in front of the media. Even so, many guests who came to the tr
Jenny thought she had finally won against Serenity at one point. Seeing the new Serenity, she wondered if this was really the Serenity she knew. Was she the same woman she had trampled over before?!"Better?" Jackson asked with concern. Serenity was his only priority at this moment. Feeling the soft puffs of breath warming her hand, Serenity felt the pain in her hand fading away."Yeah. Much better." Serenity let out a deep breath.Jackson studied her face. Indeed, she seemed less pale. "I'll have the doctor examine your hands again. Your hands haven't recovered at all.""Actually, it's gotten much better." Serenity explained, "Maybe the pain earlier was just a psychological reaction. That's why my hands hurt.""So, it's because of Zeke and Jenny," Jackson stated. "Do your hands hurt because they almost ruined them once?"Serenity was stunned for a moment and lowered her gaze almost immediately. Yeah. He must have investigated her when he approached her. How could he not know?
Serenity was determined to use reasonable and legal means to seek justice for herself. She wanted to be worthy of the lawyer robe she wore, not wanting to put the years she spent studying law to waste! Jackson fixed his gaze at Serenity, slightly stunned. He could hardly take his eyes off her. Serenity seemed stronger, prettier. Without him realizing, she had been constantly changing, morphing into a better person.'Oh, Serenity. Why not rely on me a little more?' Jackson thought. Perhaps Serenity was finally showing her true self."But if you let them go, it's too easy for them," Jackson said. "Why don't I make them regret what they did to you now?"Before Serenity could react, Jackson took Serenity's hand and led her to Zeke and Jenny.Many people around them recognized Zeke and Jenny. After all, Jenny was a big star and always in the spotlight. As Jenny's fiance, Zeke had gained much more media exposure than any ordinary entrepreneur. Seeing Jackson approaching with Serenity
