But to his surprise, Mr. Valor actually stopped.

Connor was stunned. It... worked?

Jackson lowered his gaze and stared at his blood-stained hands... He remembered when she had described his hands as beautiful and clean.

She had no idea how much blood was on his hands.

"That's right, I'll get my hands dirty..." Jackson said softly.

"Mr. Valor, your hands..." Connor quickly offered him a handkerchief.

Jackson used the handkerchief to wipe the blood off his hands. He seemed to have lost interest in the man on the floor. He walked past him and entered the building.

Connor quickly followed him inside after giving a few orders to the security guards.

Those who witnessed the scene were shocked.

Who would've guessed that the usually cold and elegant Jackson Valor would be so scary when he got mad? He was like... the Grim Reaper.

He looked like he could kill a million people and not feel a thing.

Human lives seemed to mean nothing to him!

"You don't have to come in," Jackson told

    Now that her case had been overturned, she could resume her career as a lawyer. However, she knew how difficult it would be for her to get back on that path.Even though the law had proved her innocence, her three-year imprisonment would still hinder her career.After all, how many clients would trust a lawyer who let herself be wrongfully imprisoned for three years?Furthermore, while many lawyers in her circle were aware of her case, most simply view it as an interesting topic of conversation rather than a reflection of her professional capabilities.Despite submitting numerous resumes online, she received an interview invitation from only one law firm.Nevertheless, she was determined to give it her best shot!Becoming a lawyer had been her dream for a long time, and she had worked hard to make it come true.Approaching the front desk, she introduced herself, "Hi, my name is Serenity Lewis. I’m here to interview for the paralegal position." Although she had been recognized as

    Liliana's eyes widened, and she became visibly excited.When Serenity exited the interview room, she bumped into Liliana. "How come you're here for an interview, Serenity? Does your boyfriend know? Surely he could give you an entire law firm if you wanted to become a lawyer again?" Liliana asked with a fake smile. The co-worker next to Liliana was shocked to hear that. She sized Serenity up and asked Liliana, "You've gotta be kidding, Lily. Her boyfriend could give her an entire law firm?""I'm not kidding," Liliana reassured her. "Her boyfriend is Jackson Valor. A law firm is nothing to him."That sparked a burst of laughter from those around her. "Lily, are you serious? Her boyfriend is Jackson Valor?" "Even if you're joking, at least say something remotely believable. If her boyfriend is Jackson Valor, then my boyfriend is Lucas Gomez!" "Lily, we're lawyers. We can't make claims without proof. If Jackson Valor heard that, he might sue you for libel." "I'm telling the

    Lynette seemed to be using Prince Lucas to enter the entertainment industry. Many people said that as long as Prince Lucas was willing, he could make anyone famous, even if they were nobody. Just look at Serenity now! Lucas must have left her behind, Liliana thought. Feeling triumphant, she could not resist wanting to laugh. Serenity had lost both Jackson and Lucas. What else would she have left?***Clara glared at Wilson. He was sitting on the couch, busy working with a laptop on his lap.Clara had been trapped in the hotel's presidential suite since last night. Wilson had brought her here, forbidding her to leave. If she stayed any longer, it would be dark at night again.With how things were going, Clara was unsure how long Wilson would keep her here. As for the restaurant, she had to call her staff and tell them to take a day off. The restaurant was closed for business for a day.Clara felt ridiculous as she thought of Wilson's request last night. Wilson had demanded her to

    Some people could be unbearably attractive just by a simple act of drinking water. Wilson was undeniably charming to women!Clara remembered how she used to love drinking from the same mineral water bottle Wilson drank from before. It was like an indirect kiss. Now that she thought about it, she was too naive back then.Taking a deep breath, Clara stated, "Wilson, I'm sure we both know this very well. You have no right to detain me. I'm now a free woman.""Free?" Wilson chuckled. "Do you know how much it would cost to make you unfree?" His words sounded like a threat!Clara's heart sank. She knew what he meant. Wilson was perfectly capable of controlling her freedom. If Wilson really wanted, he could find another reason to put her in prison again!Clara shivered uncontrollably thinking about the days in prison, her face turning pale. She pursed her lips tightly, her hands on her knees tightly clenched into fists. She seemed desperate, suppressing the fear in her heart.Her reacti

    Wilson was so protective of Sandra. He was so considerate to her. He even thought about giving her a child. "You say I owe Sandra and you a life, right?" Clara said suddenly.Wilson stared at Clara. She was so calm that he became a little uneasy for some reason.Clara rose to her feet. She then walked over to the bar, took out a bottle of wine and an empty glass, and poured herself a drink. He thought she probably needed a drink to increase her courage.Clara soon poured the sweet and bitter red wine into her mouth. It tasted nice. She wondered why she never thought it tasted this good.After finishing the drink, Clara slammed the glass against the bar table. The glass shattered in half. Clara then took the broken glass in her hand. It was sharp."Clara! What has gotten into you?!" Wilson roared.Clara did not care about Wilson's anger and simply ignored it. "Hey, Wilson. How should I pay back a life?" She asked with a soft chuckle.Wilson's uneasiness grew. "What are you going

    Wilson realized for the first time that Clara was more determined than he thought. Clara had harmed herself without thinking it through. When Wilson saw her blood dripping, his blood had run cold. Every nerve in his body was tingling.It was as if she had stabbed him with the broken glass! It hurt so much!Feeling amused by Wilson's pain and anger, Clara laughed and caused the blood in her wound to ooze out faster!"Don't laugh!" Wilson panicked, afraid she would bleed too fast and too much.Clara laughed as if mocking his panic."So, is this considered a life?" Clara said with difficulty. She could feel the blood rushing out, but she would not die. Clara had suffered too much in prison. Having experienced countless injuries and healing, she knew very well. An injury like this would not kill her. She only did this to let Wilson understand her determination. "I can live the rest of my life without bearing a child. You can have the doctor remove my uterus as well. Of course, it

    Clara had only been in prison for three and a half years. Wilson thought her punishment was far too light! Why did he stop her when she stabbed herself? Why call an ambulance for her?Wilson wanted to take revenge and make her pay, but in the end, he felt like she had had his revenge on him instead!Wilson's phone rang abruptly, the ringtone loud and clear in the quiet space.Wilson looked at his phone. It was Sandra who was calling. He answered the phone, and Sandra's soft voice came through. "Wilson." "What's the matter?" Wilson answered. There was a hint of exhaustion in his voice.Sandra recognized the strangeness in his voice. She asked hastily, "What's wrong? You sound tired." "I'm fine. Just a little busy with something," Wilson said. Yes. Clara's matter was just insignificant to him."I-I won't bother you any longer. I just wanted to ask. When are you coming back? If you have to stay in Solaria for a while longer, I'll come and keep you company," Sandra suggested.San

    "That man really is your nemesis. The moment he shows up, you're hurt again!" Mrs. Wells said with hatred. "What's going on here?! Did you really stab yourself, as he said?""Yeah," Clara admitted it. "Mom, I stabbed myself.""But why…""He wants me to bear his child." Clara felt bitter. "Isn't it funny? He was the one who did that to me back then. Now he wants to get back at me by asking me to give him a baby.""Does he still have feelings for you? After all, you two were…""Mom!" Clara interrupted her mother's unrealistic thinking. "He only wanted me to have a baby because Sandra can't conceive. He's just using me as a tool. If he had any feelings for me, he wouldn't have put me in prison."Mrs. Wells looked gloomy. "What a mess. You had to pay for your father's wrongdoing! How could Wilson do that to you?! You've done so much for him…""Mom, enough." Clara stopped her mother from continuing. The past had been a nightmare to her—a nightmare she was trying to forget. "You came

    “……” 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
