My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 929
Was it because of Jackson? Because she was sure that he would save her, one way or another! The thought of him made Serenity smile bitterly. Despite starting out with the intention to rely on herself, in the end, she still had to rely on him. The driver headed for the south of the city, and Serenity noticed that they were heading into the boonies. It wasn’t long before they would be completely out of the city. Serenity had no idea what Jackson was planning, but just as their van was about to join the highway that led out of the city, their vehicle was brought to an abrupt halt. “What’s the problem?” asked the man in the back. The driver remained silent the whole time. Sensing something was off, the man turned to Serenity and began threatening her. “You’d better tell the truth!” He then shuffled to the front of the van and stuck his head out between the seats to peer through the windshield. In an instant, his body grew stiff as a rock. An astonished expression appeared o

That man… he had to be the sugar daddy that the paralegal mentioned, right? Still, what sort of a sugar daddy was capable of pulling off such a feat? Jackson stared down the man who had assaulted Serenity coldly. He issued an instruction to the subordinates who were following him. “When you bring him back, give him a taste of what it’s like to be slapped.” “Understood,” replied one of the men. For Jackson to have specially given an instruction, it was practically guaranteed that this man would be wishing for his death later on. The man without the mask trembled in fear. As he watched Jackson carry Serenity over to a black Bentley, he yelled out, “Who on earth are you? And that woman… is she really just a paralegal?!” Given her average looks, how could she possibly have such a strong person backing her?!The man found it impossible to believe. What he had initially thought was an easy mission had turned out to be the complete opposite. No one answered his question. Instea

However, Jackson wasn’t talking about her physical injuries, but the wounds in her heart. He wondered how long it would take for her to fully heal from it, or if that was even possible.***Their car stopped right in front of the hospital, where Jackson got out of the vehicle holding her hand. The doctor was already waiting for them in a special consultation room. They began to run a check-up on Serenity as soon as she arrived. Thankfully, she had only suffered superficial injuries, and there was nothing to worry about. The redness and swelling on her face would subside in a few days. After they had wrapped up the examination, a new shirt was placed in front of her. “Put it on,” urged Jackson. “Alright.” Her current shirt was torn from the shoulders, so she had to put on something else. She reached out and grabbed the shirt, but he still refused to let go. Serenity looked up at him with a confused look.“You’re injured. It’s gonna be difficult for you to change.” So?

Seeing her red and swollen face, Jackson felt a tightness in his chest that made it difficult to breathe.When he opened the car door and saw her hands bound and her face swollen and bruised, he felt an intense urge to kill someone.How dare they do this to a person he deeply cared for!Serenity bit her lip and refrained from crying out loud. She had grown accustomed to remaining quiet even when she was in pain because she knew even if she cried out, it wouldn't change anything.Jackson opened the ointment case and helped her apply it.In addition to the bruises on her face, she was also kicked a few times on her body. "I can do it myself," she said. "You can't reach the injury on your back," he replied."But...""If you’re embarrassed, I'll apply the ointment with my eyes closed. The doctor's report mentioned the rough location of the injury on your back," Jackson said.Serenity was stunned, and before she could respond, Jackson walked behind her, closed his eyes, and lift

Could he have given the entire firm a vacation because he wanted Serenity to rest at home?No way... right? Why would he do all that just to make her rest?But... if that wasn't the case, then why did the firm close for three days with no explanation?After cleaning up, Serenity laid down in bed. After putting ointment on her injuries, the pain had lessened, but every time she closed her eyes, she relived today's events in her mind.When he appeared before her, she felt a wave of relief. It appeared that... there was someone else in this world other than Lisa who would protect her like that.However, that man did not love her.The love game between them had ended, but when will the sibling game end?Nobody could tell her the answer!Jackson stared coldly at the two bodyguards who hung their heads in shame and dread. Connor sighed helplessly. "Is this how you protect someone?" Jackson's icy voice made Connor wince.Mr. Valor was furious!The two bodyguards remained silent.

"Oh my God! You're hurt! Why didn't you tell me?" When Lisa came to visit Serenity at Serenity's apartment, she was shocked to see the redness and swelling on Serenity's cheeks. "It actually looks worse than it is. It doesn't hurt anymore," Serenity said, hesitant to admit that it looked even worse two days ago. "What happened? How did you get hurt? Who did this to you?" Lisa asked. Serenity explained that she was kidnapped. Even though Serenity tried to play down the situation, Lisa was still alarmed.Towards the end of her story, Lisa suddenly asked, "Wait, you said the highway exit was blocked off by the police? Don't tell me the police were waiting for your kidnappers' car at the highway exit that day?"Serenity was surprised and asked, "What?" Lisa looked up something on her phone before passing it to her friend.Someone posted some pictures they took of a highway exit.However, because the pictures were taken from far away, Serenity could only barely make out lines of

Whenever she fawned over a male celebrity, Terry would become unhappy, and she would have to coax him.If she didn't, he would threaten to snitch about her visit to the underground bar to her parents.Thus, she had no choice but to act subserviently.However, besides his jealous nature, he was actually a good man.

"Why does the time matter? I just wanted to see you," she said with a sweet voice, "Terry, I feel so lucky that you like me back." Compared to Serenity, she was so much luckier, which made her feel even more heartbroken for Serenity."Why are you saying this all of a sudden?" Terry gazed at the person in front of him. Though he had no idea why she would suddenly bring that up, he was actually quite happy to hear it."I visited Serenity earlier," Lisa said, "She told me that, because of circumstances, she and Jackson Valor are acting like siblings again. I know Serenity wants to move on from Jackson Valor. This situation will only make things more complicated." After a pause, Lisa said with obvious annoyance, "I don't know what Jackson Valor's thinking. He seems to care about Serenity, yet he broke up with her. They say a woman's heart is a mystery, but his heart looks like a much bigger mystery to me.""Jackson Valor is still in love with Serenity," Terry abruptly interjected.

“……” 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
