My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 728
As Serenity pushed open the door to the CEO's office, she saw a tall figure standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the skyline of towering buildings in the city.Suddenly, Serenity felt that the scene before her was like a poster. He was simply standing there as if the entire city was under his control.In reality, he indeed had the capability to dominate the city.This version of him was like a completely different person from the vulnerable and lonely one she had seen early in the morning."Jack," she called out.Jackson turned his head and gave her a faint smile."You're here.""Yeah, I brought lunch for you. Have some and see if you like it," she said as she walked confidently toward the coffee table, placing the lunch boxes and fruits on it.He approached the coffee table as well and then opened the lunch box, sitting on the sofa.Serenity felt like she was back to the times when she used to have lunch with him in the office every afternoon."Does it taste

Some delicate actions might have been effortless for her in the past, but now, they seemed strenuous. Yet, here she was, putting in the effort to peel an apple for him.So, there was a place in her heart for him. She had said it—she loved only him!Jackson kept repeating this in his heart. His captivating eyes watched her hands' movements, almost as if wanting to confirm to himself through this that she cared deeply for him.When she finally finished peeling an apple, Serenity let out a sigh of relief and handed the apple to Jackson. "There you go."He took the apple, took a light bite, and the sweet taste soon spread in his mouth."Is it sweet?" she asked."Very sweet," he replied."Then I'll have one too," she said, picking up another apple, ready to peel it.However, in the next moment, he reached out with his long arm and pulled her into his embrace. "Why go through the trouble? Don't exert yourself to peel another apple.""Huh?" She was taken aback. Then, she watche

"Yeah. Just a cake will do. But this year, my birthday happens to be one day after my grandmother's seventh day of passing. I don't want to celebrate much. I just want to eat a cake with you and the others, including Lisa," Serenity said.Although this was her first birthday with him, her grandmother had recently passed away. So, she was still in mourning. She didn't want a lively birthday celebration. She only wanted to spend it quietly with him and her friends."Alright," Jackson agreed. "I'll prepare a birthday cake for you.""Thank you," she smiled faintly, then checked the time. It was almost the end of lunchtime, and Jackson would need to return to work. "I'll head back then and not disturb your work."As she spoke, she picked up her bag and stood up. But before she could take two steps, a pair of arms wrapped around her from behind, pulling her into his embrace. He buried his face in the crook of her neck, inhaling her fragrance. "Tomorrow... don't go to the hospital. Let

A few days ago, Yanny had seen the birthday gift she had prepared for Serenity and curiously asked about it. So, Clara told her son that on the twenty-second of this month, it would be Serenity's birthday and that she would give Serenity the gift as a surprise. Little did she expect that her son would also remember Serenity's birthday.Considering Serenity's kindness to Yanny, how could he not care about her? Children were always innocent and straightforward. Whoever treated them well would naturally become their close ones."I want to pick a gift for Aunt Serene myself," Yanny said earnestly.Clara hesitated upon hearing this. Serenity had helped Yanny so much, and without Serenity's assistance, Yanny wouldn't have been able to use such a good hearing aid so quickly. It was only right for her son to choose a gift for Sere on his own. However, malls were crowded, and selecting a gift would inevitably take up quite a bit of time outside. The longer they stayed outside, the gr

It's... Wilson Birch!He was in a suit and his hair was meticulously-combed, just as she remembered. The sight of him made her heart ache.Time had been kind to him as he remained handsome.She, however, was wounded all over and was no longer the same person she was in the past.Seemingly sensing her gaze, Wilson turned in her direction.Clara hastily grabbed her son and ran towards the emergency exit without thinking.The staff at the counter shouted, "What's wrong, ma'am?" Wilson, who was on the escalator, only caught a glimpse of someone running away.But that fleeting moment was enough to cause his expression to change drastically. The group of people following behind him then saw the usually calm and composed Wilson Birch frantically racing down the escalator towards the emergency exit.Wilson's two bodyguards naturally followed behind him.The rest of the group looked at each other in confusion, unable to comprehend the situation.Wilson ran frantically, focusing only

"Mommy?" Yanny only asked what’s wrong after they had climbed into a cab. He had no idea why Mommy would suddenly carry him away while they were shopping for a birthday present for Aunt Serene, but he had always been a well-behaved child and knew Mommy must have her reasons, so he stayed quiet this whole time."Just now, Mommy saw someone she didn't want to see, so we left in a hurry. We'll come back to buy a present for Auntie Serene some other time, okay?" said Clara.The little boy nodded before asking in a soft voice, "Is the person a bad guy?"Clara's nose suddenly got stuffy. When Yanny was younger, he used to ask his where Daddy was.She had always told him that Daddy was in heaven.She did not know when Yanny would truly comprehend what being in heaven meant.However, she did know that she could not tell him his father was only dozens of meters away from them a moment ago. She also could not tell him that he had already met his father, but his existence was never what h

Serenity hesitated at the hospital entrance, uncertain if she was making the right decision. Did she really want to uncover the truth? If her dreams really were lost memories, should she bury the memories or try to recover them? What would happen after she regained her memories? Would it complicate her relationship with Lucas and make Jack feel even more insecure?Maybe she should just let the memories stay buried and feign ignorance. She could seek other treatment for her headache.Perhaps if she kept her distance from Lucas and not let him trigger her memories from now on, she would no longer have headaches."Miss Lewis!" Suddenly, a woman's voice called out to Serenity, jolting her back to reality.She had unconsciously walked to Dr. Landale's office. The person who called out to her was the nurse who was with Dr. Landale yesterday."Miss Lewis, something came up for Dr. Landale this morning and she has to take some time off. We're really sorry," the nurse said apologetically

Her silence only made Lucas more convinced of his assumption. "So you really did forget something. Is it something related to me?"Serenity bit her lip. "Mr. Gomez, your imagination is far too rich. It's true that I came here for hypnotherapy, but not for the reason you said. The treatment is for some other problems that I have. As you know, I was imprisoned for three years, so I have mental health issues like anxiety, among other things."He looked at her intently, as if trying to discern the truth in her words. "Really? You have an anxiety disorder?" She returned his gaze. "And how do you know that I don't?"He suddenly leaned in closer, pressing his finely chiseled face close to hers. "Did you know that the words you said while holding onto my hand at the convention were exactly the same words that the little girl who saved me said when I was a child?"Like I said, I was just talking gibberish," she said with a straight face. "Gibberish?" he snorted. "You grabbed my hand and

“……” 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
