"I'll help, of course," Serenity said, thinking she could at least help Clara save some money. "It's just… I'm not sure if we'll win. After all, there are a lot of unfavorable factors at present," Serenity said frankly."I know! I know," Clara repeatedly answered. She knew she could not change her past and remove the unfavorable factors, but she was grateful that Serenity would help her with the lawsuit. "Serenity, thanks.""By the way, are you going to stay in Solaria? Have you decided on Yanny's kindergarten yet?" Serenity asked, recalling the matter. After all, she knew Yanny had been looking forward to kindergarten."Not yet." Clara's joy turned gloomy. Clara had tried to enroll her son in several private kindergartens lately, but as soon as they learned that the child was deaf, they turned her down. Clara repeatedly emphasized that Yanny had hearing aids and had no problem communicating with them, but her efforts were futile.Serenity pondered, "I'll find a way, then.""You
"Clara is the child's mother," Wilson answered in a low baritone voice. It was the last thing Sandra wanted to hear. A child! Clara had Wilson's child! A son! Which meant… Clara had not lied about being pregnant?! Clara had been telling the truth before? It was not just a lie to escape from prison?! Sandra's heart filled with resentment at the thought. She should have found a way to get rid of this child when Clara was in jail! Sandra concealed all her jealousy and hatred on her face. "She gave birth to your child?!""Sorry," Wilson apologized."There's nothing to apologize for… I-I can't have a baby. At least you'll have a child who inherits your blood," Sandra sounded like she was sobbing a little, her eyes hooded."Hey, Wilson. You now have a child with Clara … Will you stay with her? I can understand if you do…"Sandra's voice trailed off as if she was so sad that she could no longer continue.Wilson took Sandra into his arms, hugging her. "I won't be with Clara. Didn't
"Sure. I'll bring Yanny to meet you next time," Serenity said with a smile.After the phone call, Lisa asked around some of her friends and colleagues. Two of her colleagues happened to have relatives who worked in kindergartens, but when contacted, they declined politely after learning that the child was deaf.They refused because the child was different from normal children. It might be difficult for the teacher to manage the child. Besides, the child might not fit in well with normal children.Lisa realized it was harder than she had thought. It was hard for a deaf child to get into a normal kindergarten even if the child had hearing aids and could talk. In the evening, Lisa and Terry had dinner together after work. Lisa was unusually attentive to Terry, serving him tea and food. Terry was so skeptical that he stared straight at Lisa with his beautiful eyes."W-What's wrong?" Lisa was getting a little weak from his stares."Have you done something wrong to me again?" Terry as
"How pretty is he?" Terry asked, raising a brow."If I was 20 years younger, I would've pursued him without second thoughts! I'm sure he'll charm a lot of girls when he enters kindergarten!" Lisa clicked her tongue, praising Yanny. She was such a fan of his.Terry frowned. A pretty and cute kid… Pursue him? Why did that sound so weird? "Would you really go after him if you were 20 years younger?""Yeah! You should meet him. Serenity will bring him over next time. Do you want to come together and meet him? Serenity says he looks better in person than in pictures…" Lisa said but paused suddenly. She finally noticed the strange look on Terry's face and quickly realized what she had said. Lisa quickly changed her tone and started fawning at Terry, "Of course, no matter how pretty or cute he is, you're still the most handsome man I've ever met!" Lisa secretly sighed in her heart. She had almost forgotten how petty and jealous Terry was!"You really think I'm handsome?" Terry gazed at
It was very common not to get any compensation at all even when the lawsuit was won.At around noon, Serenity received a call from Peter Wall. He asked her, "Do you… Do you know where I can find the actress named Susie Sheen? I… I'd like to see her.""Is there any problem?" Serenity asked him."I want to talk to her about Leon," he replied. "Perhaps she might sympathize with him. I wouldn't expect her to admit that she was the real driver, but perhaps she might agree to pay out a portion of the money so that Leon can get better treatments."Peter just wanted to do his best and give it a last try since Leon was an employee of his company, but because his company was still in its infancy, the help they could provide Leon's family was very limited. In fact, the company had donated money to them a few times, but it was still nowhere near enough to cover Leon's huge medical expenses.Meanwhile, Susie Sheen was a rather popular actress, and there were even reports not long ago that she
"But…""That's enough!" Susie interrupted angrily. "I'm not a philanthropist, and I'm not the driver who caused the accident! If I give them the money, then everyone will expect me to pay their bills when they get hurt from now on!"After speaking, she tried to leave immediately, but Peter held on to her arm and pleaded, "Miss Sheen…""Let go of me!" she yelled. Her assistant then instantly shoved Peter out of the way.Peter staggered for a while before he managed to steady himself. Susie gave Peter a death stare as she gave the security guards on the film set an order, "From now on, don't ever let these two people in here again! Damn it! They’ve completely ruined my mood to film today!"The security guards responded, "Yes, Miss Sheen!"By then, Serenity knew that they had come for nothing today, but just as she was about to tell Peter it was time to leave, she noticed the man staring intently at Susie, who was now stomping away."Stop staring at her," she told him. "Let's go.
What happened? Where could Serenity be right now?At that moment, the only thought that came up in his mind was Susie Sheen—he remembered how Serenity had seemed to be in deep thought after he had told her about the ring the actress was wearing. Could it be that Serenity… had gone back inside to confront Susie about it?The more Peter thought about it, the more plausible this conjecture sounded. And so, he rushed back to the set, where Susie stood in the middle of multiple cameras in the process of filming. Peter burst into the shot and asked her, "Have you seen Serenity Lewis, Miss Sheen? She's the woman who came with me earlier!"After scanning the place, Peter had not seen Serenity anywhere in here either, and he was now getting even more distressed. The film set was also thrown into chaos when an outsider barged in suddenly, and right now, Peter was subdued by several security guards while the crew members took him to task."How would I know where she is?!" Susie shouted in fur
Lucas stormed toward Susie and demanded, "Where is Serenity?""I…" she stuttered in a shaking voice, "I don't know. I've got nothing to do with this!"Susie had no idea why the Prince of Showbiz would care so much about Serenity. Was she not just a lowly paralegal?! Why would the Prince of Showbiz be so concerned and anxious just because of that woman?In fact, Susie was not the only one puzzled by this. Even those who had never seen Serenity before were beginning to question what kind of relationship this woman had with Lucas."Perhaps Serenity just had something else to do and had to hurry somewhere else!" suggested Lynette, who had followed Lucas here.She had intentionally dragged Lucas here to this set today after having finished filming herself on another film set because she had heard rumors that the director working here was preparing for the next film. She had hoped to use Lucas's influence to perhaps land an important role in that film.But to her dismay, the moment the
