My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 841
"If I be Lucas' girlfriend, at least he wouldn't treat me as just a game..." she added.Stop, stop... He didn't want to hear it anymore...The next moment, he abruptly lowered his head and kissed her on the lips intensely, drowning out all her voice.Serenity was completely stunned, not expecting Jackson to suddenly kiss her. What was he doing? They had already broken up!She did not want such a kiss!Serenity struggled desperately.But the more she struggled, the harder he kissed her. He even gripped her hands tightly, not allowing her to move.After the kiss ended, he rested his forehead on hers and said in a hoarse voice, in almost a pleading tone, "Can you... not be Lucas' girlfriend?"His voice pulled her back to her senses. "Jackson Valor, who are you to ask this of me?"A thinly veiled anger crept into his watery eyes.He glared at her, and she glared right back at him.The air became tense.Suddenly, Serenity felt a sharp pain in her knee, making her frown. She refl

"Stop! It's no big deal. I don't need to go to the hospital," Serenity said hurriedly."Start the car," Jackson told the driver coldly.The driver started the car and headed for the hospital.Serenity knew that once Jackson had decided to do something, there was no stopping him.Therefore, she didn't try to persuade him anymore because she knew it was pointless. Since it was unavoidable, she could only accept it.After all, the biggest lessons she had learned over the years were enduring pain and accepting her circumstances.Her sudden silence surprised him.She sat quietly inside the car, her face slightly pale. Her eyebrows were slightly knitted as her eyes hung low. Her hands gripped her knees, the veins on the back of her hands slightly bulging as if she was in pain."Does it hurt?" he couldn't help but ask."It's nothing," she said flatly. Today's pain was nothing compared to the pain a few days ago when her knees flared up because she was standing for too long.Jackson

The car pulled up outside the hospital entrance. Jackson carried Serenity inside.The doctor attending to her was the same as before.After examining her knees, the doctor concluded, "Ms. Lewis, the discomfort in your knees is likely caused by the sudden stopping of your medication and prolonged exposure to the cold. Treating this joint problem is a long-term commitment. Abruptly stopping the medication might make your condition worse.""Prescribe the medicine. I'll make sure she comes over for consultation every week from now," Jackson said coldly. "I don't want long-term treatment. Just give me something to relieve the pain," Serenity requested.The doctor turned to Jackson with a troubled look. "Do as I say," Jackson said. Thus, the doctor gave Serenity a prescription and instructed a nurse to retrieve the medicine for her.Jackson was about to ask the gynecologist who treated Serenity's uterus problems previously to take a look at her condition, but Serenity said, "That

"K-Kiss you?" Her face instantly turned red and her voice stuttered a bit.He looked at her, not realizing how much desire was in his eyes. "Yes, that evening at the Skylit Bar's entrance.""…..." The Skylit Bar? Serenity started to sweat profusely. Getting drunk was a huge mistake!She didn't know she kissed him that evening! She couldn't remember! "If you don't believe me, ask Connor," he said. Connor? His secretary Connor Gunn? He saw it too?! Serenity's face turned even redder."You can also check the surveillance footage. Some of the surveillance cameras there should have caught it," he said.Serenity felt so embarrassed that she wanted to dig a hole and bury herself in it.Surveillance footage... Did that count as getting caught red-handed?"No, it's okay," she said in embarrassment. If she had known she would act like that when she got drunk, she wouldn't have gone drinking.Serenity looked down, avoiding Jackson's gaze. Therefore, she didn't notice him looking at h

The nurse wondered who that woman was. She didn't look like anyone famous. She was wearing cheap, ordinary clothes.But Jackson Valor rubbed his knees for her and served her. Anyone with working eyes could tell that she was very important to him.Looking at the medicine, Serenity did not know if she should laugh or cry.This man was so cruel when he broke up with her, but now, he was gently handing her medicine and water as if they were still together.How could someone be so gentle and cruel at the same time?She took the medicine and the cup of water from him without saying anything and consumed the medicine.He picked her up again and carried her out of the hospital.His luxury car was already waiting at the entrance. When he put her down to open the car door, she took one step to the side, distancing herself from him.He raised his eyebrows slightly, looking surprised.She looked at him intently, scrutinizing him, as if she was trying to see what he was really thinking. In

She wanted to forget him, and she would?Even though her voice was calm, there was an underlying determination.He suddenly cocked back his hand and punched the car!"Mr. Valor!" the driver exclaimed in surprise. He saw a twisted haze permeating the handsome face of the powerful man.Serenity went back home and collapsed on the bed, feeling completely worn out.She was exhausted, as if she had just been through a tough battle.She had made things very clear to Jackson. Jackson probably wouldn't look for her anymore, considering how proud he was.Surprisingly, he called her "Sis" again today. It reminded her of the past when she brought him back to that little rental house.Life back then was hard, but it was warm.Back then, she really felt like she had a family.Alas! In the end, she's alone again."Jack, I'll definitely forget you," Serenity whispered. She told herself to forget the man called Jack. In this world, there's only Jackson Valor now!He was a very powerful

Serenity went to the receptionist and asked her to deal with the roses.The receptionist sorted the roses into bundles and gave them out to everyone in the office. Although many people were pleased with the flowers, Liliana seemed upset. She looked as if someone owed her a lot of money.Were Serenity and Jackson Valor still together? It would explain why the bill was taken care of at Skylit Bar and it would certainly explain the roses too.But if they're still together, why was Serenity dressed so poorly? Even her handbag was an old model from years ago! It even looked old!Liliana's eyes suddenly lit up. She had come up with another brilliant plan.Not long after that, Mr. Graham summoned Serenity to his office. "Do you have a boyfriend?" Mr. Graham went straight to the point. After all, he specified in the vacancy ad that he would like to hire someone without a partner. "No," answered Serenity."Then what's with all the roses?" he asked. "They're from Coles Lexington. Whe

"I will," Serenity replied. According to the information she gathered earlier, Peter's car was right behind Leon's car when the accident occurred.Essentially, Peter was a primary witness of the accident!He was definitely the one to talk to to learn about the specifics of the case. "Do you want to have dinner together?" Peter checked the time and said, "It's almost dinnertime." "Thanks, but I'm good," Serenity declined with a smile. She was obviously trying to keep her distance. She wasn't sure if Peter still had feelings for her, so she didn't want to send him the wrong signals."I have more information about the case that I want to discuss with you. I thought we could talk about it over dinner, if that works for you. It won't take up too much of your time," Peter said. Serenity hesitated for a moment, then said, "Well... okay. But we'll go Dutch, alright?" "No problem," Peter grinned. As long as she would have dinner with him, he was happy.Lisa went to visit Seren

“……” 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
