Demetria and Jenny were shocked.The piece of land in the south of the city was highly-prized. The Hall family went through a lot of effort to get their hands on it. The real estate industry had been booming in the last few years, so that piece of land was now worth over a billion dollars!They would give Serenity Lewis a billion dollars – just like that?No way!Demetria was about to have a fit, but to her surprise, Quinton's face sank when he heard Jackson's reply. She heard him say, "Would you really not consider it, Mr. Valor?"Jackson Valor... refused?Demetria and Jenny were both speechless.A moment later, Quinton put down his phone and gave his second daughter a helpless look.She reaped what she sowed.Who could have predicted that the originally weak and helpless Serenity Lewis would now have the most powerful backing in Solaria."Just leave the entertainment industry and come back to work for the family. You’re supposed to inherit the Hall family after your sister
After thinking about it for the past few days, Clara had actually resolved herself for what was to come. If she could not avoid contact with Wilson Birch, if she could not prevent Wilson Birch from finding her, then when that day came, she would just let him have all the revenge he wanted."But..." Serenity looked like she wanted to say something, but Clara gently took her hand and said, "I know you're concerned about me. I'm really happy to have a friend like you, but... this is between Wilson and I. It needs to be resolved sooner or later."After a pause, Clara added, "Serenity, I would only ask one thing from you."Clara's expression was serious and earnest. It made Serenity's heart thump."If... Wilson really finds me, I might not be able to see my mom and Yanny for a while. When that time comes, I hope you can help me take care of them for a period of time. After all, my mom is old and Yanny is young, so they can't do much by themselves," said Clara. She had already left her
However, when she needed help the most, that voice said, "My biggest regret in life is having you as my girlfriend."How laughable! How ridiculous! Promises and oaths could change so easily just because of an accident, and another woman could easily take her place as the love of his life.The voice that Serenity once knew so well now sounded so unfamiliar to her.Serenity turned around and saw Zeke Shaw. As usual, he was wearing stylish and expensive clothes as befitting of his status as a wealthy young man.It was no surprise that Jenny Hall would date Zeke Shaw; he was indeed good looking. "I don't think we have anything to talk about," said Serenity. "Just a few minutes. It won't take long," Zeke spoke hurriedly as if he was afraid that he would miss the opportunity. He continued, " Serenity, I know what I did was wrong. I should have protected you back then. I shouldn't have given in to the pressure."Serenity looked at him coldly and said, "Zeke, you don't have to tell
"You think that's vicious, Mr. Shaw? You have no idea what real viciousness looks like!" Serenity interrupted Zeke.She had experienced inhuman torture in prison. Sometimes, she thought she wouldn't survive. Zeke Shaw had not even experienced a fraction of that pain."Will you only be satisfied if you completely destroy Jenny?" Zeke asked indignantly. "You say that as if she didn't try to completely destroy me in the past! I'm lucky I can still hold things with my hands!" Serenity mocked.Zeke was stunned. His eyes fell on Serenity's hands.To be honest, he would often recall that scene from years ago, and it would give him mixed feelings.After knowing that Serenity was falsely accused, he wondered if things would have turned out differently if she hadn't gone to prison.However, he quickly dismissed the thought.Jenny was the best choice for him and for the Shaw family. "Serenity, you have Jackson Valor now. Why must you be so ruthless?" Zeke tried pleading with her. Ser
It was only a single word, but it meant that Jenny Hall had really been blacklisted by the entertainment industry!Although Serenity expected it, she was still surprised. After all, Jenny Hall was not an ordinary celebrity – she was also the second daughter of the Hall family! But Jackson... actually blacklisted her, just like that.She stared at the word "Yes" on her phone, lost in thought.After a while, Serenity sent another message: "Will the Hall family become your enemy?"She did not want his career to be affected because of their relationship.After all, the Hall family was also a powerful family in Solaria.Jackson's answer was short: "They wouldn't dare."She felt relieved.That evening, Jenny Hall publicly announced that she would retire from showbiz to inherit her family business.The sudden announcement sent the whole entertainment world into a frenzy!After all, Jenny Hall was a really popular celebrity. It was even rumored that her upcoming movie would help he
Jackson wrapped his hands around Serenity's waist. He moved his lips close to her ear and said, "Looks like Lisa can say some good things too sometimes.""What good things?" Serenity naturally asked."That you picked a good husband," replied Jackson.Her face instantly turned even redder. "J-Jack..." Her voice stuttered a bit."Let's get married next year," Jackson murmured close to her ear. He would wait for her for one year while she mourned her grandmother. After that, he wanted her to be his.Why did one year's time feel so long?He could not help worrying that something might happen this year that would make her leave him.The more he loved her, the stronger the fear grew.Thinking of that, his arms unconsciously tightened around her a little more."Jack, loosen up a bit," she said with a flushed face. After all, they were in the kitchen. Someone might see them... "If the servants come in...""No one would dare to come in without my permission," he said. He kissed her fo
Lisa did not forget to ask her friends and family to retweet the news too. She also sent Terry White a link and wrote: "Retweet this to your Twitter Circle. Better yet, add a comment, preferably longer than 15 words."And so, in a large meeting room, the executives of the White Maple Group saw a strange expression appear on their CEO’s face after he checked his phone.Terry realized he had done a lot of things for the first time in his life because of Lisa.For example, it was the first time he put down his guard so easily around a woman. He even wanted to get closer to her and easily gave her his heart because of a few words from her.It was also the first time a woman had left him without saying a word the very next day.And now, he would be retweeting celebrity gossip for the first time in his life.Had she ever thought about what kind of people were in his Twitter Circle?He had heard about the things Jenny Hall did to Serenity and knew that Jenny Hall was truly despicable.
Later that day, Terry picked Lisa up from work. Lisa was still carrying out her retweeting and commenting operation in the car, trying her best to get the news on Trending.While fighting the "battle", Lisa complained, "D*mn the Hall family! They keep removing the tweets! If not, the news would have made it to Trending by now!""You want the news to Trend?" Terry asked."Of course! Why would I work so hard otherwise?" She pouted, but her hands did not stop."That's easy. I don't know why you would go through all this trouble," said Terry."If I don't, there's no hope," Lisa said angrily."You know you can pay to get something to Trend, right?"His words were like a revelation, striking Lisa with a jolt of sudden realization. She looked up at him with bright, cat-like eyes.God, how could she forget that this man was loaded! Buying a trending topic should be a piece of cake for him!For the sake of money, for the sake of trending topics, for the sake of stepping on Jenny Hall,
