Peter was hesitant. He grabbed Serenity's arm and said, "Why don't I go with you, just in case?"

"I'll be fine." Serenity smiled and gently patted the back of his hand, "I know that person."

Only then did Peter release her hand, albeit reluctantly.

Serenity exited the car and followed the driver to the black Bentley.

The driver opened the backseat door for her, and Serenity climbed inside. Peter could make out the shadowy figure of a man in a suit in the Bentley, but his face was indistinguishable.

Bam!

The door slammed shut, and the Bentley accelerated away.

Peter sat in his car alone, his mind filled with speculation.

Who was the man in the car? What was his relationship with Serenity?

Serenity looked at Jackson who was sitting next to her. She noticed the playful smile on the corner of his lips. However, his eyes were cold.

"So you're interested in Peter Wall, huh? Do you enjoy spending time with him?" He asked casually, but Serenity felt like her heart was hit with a h

    "Someone like you will never be able to understand that, but I certainly can. We're all human, but some individuals are in positions of power where they can easily decide other people's fate. Meanwhile, plain, ordinary folks like us have to remain humble and compromise. Sometimes, we can't even control our own destiny. We’re often taken advantage of."If... she wasn't from a regular family but was from a well-known and powerful one, she would never have been framed for the car accident.The culprit who set her up would never have dared to offend her.Every day she was in jail, she felt like an empty husk. How she would live each day depended on the whims of others. They decided whether she would get beaten up that day or not.All of that happened because of a single order from a person in power.Jackson gazed at the woman in front of him with his dark eyes. "How would you know I don't understand?" he muttered, a mocking smile crossing his lips.The reason he broke up with her and

    Jackson brushed his lips across her warm hand as he spoke."Don't you want to be my sister? When you were drunk, you wanted to be my Sis. If you want, we can go back to the way things were. If you don't want to return to Valor Residence, I can live with you in your rented place like before."Feeling startled, Serenity stared up at him in surprise. She felt his lips pressing against her hand, his hot breath against her skin. His features were delicate, his eyes gorgeous. He seemed to be a chiseled statue of male perfection, so much so that she could not take her eyes off him.Serenity pondered. 'Do I want to be his Sis again? Do I want to go back to the way things were?' Serenity questioned herself. Once upon a time, Serenity was happy and carefree, living a cozy life with Jackson. She thought she finally had a family and was no longer alone! All she wanted was a family. Love was not part of her expectations at that time.Serenity eventually calmed down and returned to a calm and

    Serenity shut her eyes, trying to keep the red marks on her wrist from burning up again. However, the image of Jackson kissing the red spot on her hand kept haunting her! She still could not get it out of her head!***Clara woke up early in the morning, her expression softening as she looked at her son's sleeping face. She was glad to be able to watch her kid grow up like this!It was the hardest part of her life, but Clara was glad she had not aborted the baby. She had insisted on giving birth. Although it was the most painful moment in her life, it was worth it. Mrs. Wells entered the room and saw her daughter staring at her grandson, Yanny, with loving eyes. She said softly, "Clara, everything's packed. We have a train to catch in the afternoon. Why don't you sleep a little longer?""Can't sleep." Clara shook her head. "The movers will be here soon. I have to get ready.""I wonder if we can reopen our business after moving to Georgia." Mrs. Wells was worried. She was heartbr

    "My dad said that you should announce the wedding date later. To show your sincerity," Sandra said."Sure," Wilson agreed. He would do whatever she wanted him to do."Let's do the first dance when the dance starts," Sandra added."Hmm," Wilson agreed. Just then, Wilson's phone rang suddenly. Wilson grabbed his phone and frowned upon seeing the caller ID. Then, he told Sandra, "I need to take a call. I'll be right over."With that, Wilson went to a quiet corner and answered the call. The man he had sent to Solaria to keep an eye on Clara was calling. He must be calling to inform him about Clara's latest situation. When Wilson answered the call, his face suddenly changed. All Wilson heard was, "Mr. Birch, Clara is leaving Solaria on the 3:45 p.m. train, and…""What else?""She's not alone," the informant said.Wilson was puzzled. Clara was not alone? What did he mean by that? Wilson knew about Clara's mother. Clara had disappeared after her release from prison. Her mother had

    "I-I don't know," Sandra said, flushing and drowning in embarrassment. Who was the one who had called Wilson earlier? Wilson wanted to stop someone from leaving. Who was it?'Don't let them go…' Who were those people he was referring to?!"U-Um… What do we do? Why did he leave like that? Does he really want to marry Sandra?" Mrs. Cooper said anxiously.The Cooper family had merely run a small family business before. However, with the Birch family's help, they were now lucky enough to be part of the high society. Everyone knew that the Cooper family had been dependent on the Birch family. Many secretly called the Cooper family a parasite of the Birch family. If Sandra could not get married into the Birch family, the Cooper family might return to its original state."How can that be? The Birch family has already agreed to the wedding date. Nothing will change!" Mr. Cooper lowered his voice and scolded his wife in a hushed tone, "Well, with all the guests today, we must act as if no

    Mrs. Wells spoke of Sandra with a lot of seething resentment. Her daughter had suffered so much more than Sandra."Mom!" Clara hastily interrupted, "Stop it." Yanny was right beside her. She did not want the child to listen to the adults' grudges.Mrs. Wells seemed to have understood and quickly shut up. Fortunately, Yanny was not listening to their conversation. He was busy looking around the station.Clara could feel her anxiety growing stronger as the minutes ticked by. She wished she could immediately whisk her mother and son away on the high-speed train.Yanny happened to need the restroom when the radio finally began to announce the check-in for the tickets, so Clara told Mrs. Wells, "Mom, can you watch the bags? I'll take Yanny to the restroom.""Better hurry. They’re checking the tickets," Mrs. Wells urged."Yeah, I know," Clara responded. Holding Yanny's hand, Clara brought him to the restroom. She had to take her son to the ladies since her son was too young to go to

    Wilson had ordered his men to stop Clara, but he still wanted to see her with his own eyes. He wanted to ask her about the child! He did not expect a second surprise when he actually met the boy in person.Wilson had met this child before. When he had first met Yanny, he had had an inexplicable fondness for this child and even wanted to sponsor him. He never expected this. The child turned out to be Clara's son!Wilson leaned forward and gazed down at the little child, studying him. Yanny's eyes bore some resemblance to his."W-What's your name?" Wilson asked, his voice hoarse."Yanny! But that's my nickname. My full name is Yannick Wells." The little one flashed a smile at Wilson.When Wilson saw Yanny's smile, he finally realized why he had a fondness for him. Yanny looked very much like Clara when he smiled!Yannick Wells?"Hmm… What about your Daddy?" Wilson rasped.Yanny's happy expression turned a little gloomy at the mention of his father. "He's no more.

    Clara took a deep breath, followed Wilson, and got into the car.After getting into the car, Clara's phone rang. She glanced down at her phone. It was her mother calling.Clara answered the phone only to hear her mother's anxious voice. "Clare? Where are you? Are you coming over? The ticket inspection is almost over.""Mom, Yanny and I can't go over anymore. You should find a place to stay for a while, maybe a motel," Clara said."What's going on?" Mrs. Wells asked.Clara looked up and met Wilson's gaze. Wilson seemed curious about her answer, his lips curling into a mocking smile.Yanny sat between the two adults and gazed up at Clara. The father and son had somewhat similar eyes, their similarity becoming visibly distinct."We're with Wilson right now," Clara said calmly.Mrs. Wells drew a sharp gasp on the other end of the phone, panic coloring her voice. "H-He met Yanny?! And you… Wilson…" Mrs. Wells stammered, barely able to speak."Mom, don't worry. I'll handle this," Cl

    “……” 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
