My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 995
Jackson feared that, someday, she might smile at Lucas lovingly, hug Lucas intimately, and do all the things she used to do with him with Lucas. Would she even... marry Lucas and have children with him?Those fleeting thoughts were too much for him to bear.The truth was, once you fell in love, you simply couldn't stop loving on command...Serenity woke up to her phone's alarm and realized she was lying in bed, not sitting in a chair.Did Jackson move her to the bed? That seemed to be the only possibility.Jackson was nowhere to be seen.The pills she left on the nightstand yesterday were gone, so she assumed he took them.But he didn't take the rest of the medicine with him.She wondered if his stomach was still bothering him. Then, she chuckled at herself. Why was she worrying about him? He would have the top doctors in Solaria attending to him if he needed treatment.She quickly freshened up, got changed and went to work.As more of her coworkers arrived at the law firm,

"Maybe it's true love," Liliana said. "Lucas Gomez is willing to be seen with her even though she's so unremarkable. He doesn't even try to deny the dating rumors. Maybe it really is true love." The coworkers around them now looked at Serenity with sympathy rather than envy, as there may be some truth to Liliana's words.Liliana continued to analyze, "Lynette Blossom has already started filming a TV series. She supposedly got an excellent role. I heard Lucas Gomez personally drove her to the set. Meanwhile, Serenity's still working as a paralegal. If Lucas Gomez wants to, he could easily open a new firm for Serenity, but..."Liliana suddenly stopped herself and looked at Serenity apologetically. "Oh, I'm so sorry, Serenity. I... Look, these are all just speculations. Maybe... maybe Lucas Gomez will give you a law firm soon!" Despite what she said, she was actually hinting that Serenity wasn't that important to Lucas Gomez.The other coworkers thought her argument made sense. If

"Lily, we're all coworkers. Don't you always say that you're close with Serenity because you used to work in the same firm? How could you stab her behind her back?" asked a coworker. "Some people are just hypocrites!"Her coworkers' rebukes came one after another. Liliana felt so embarrassed that she wished she could dig a hole and bury herself in it. From the looks of it, it's not Serenity who would be fired from the firm, it's Liliana who would be chased out of the firm!Liliana asked for time off and went home. Meanwhile, Serenity continued to work.In a few days, the court would meet again for Leon's case. Even though Susie Sheen continued to deny the charges, the police's investigation after they reopened the case had found more and more conclusive evidence. Things were looking positive. ...Looking positive, huh? Serenity's eyes fell on her right hand that was tapping the keyboard.That was the hand that hit Jackson last night. He held it gently afterwards and asked her, "

The phone rang in the hall, disturbing the silence. Jackson answered the phone and, after a moment, said, "Okay, got it. I'll be right there." After hanging up, he looked at the portrait again and said, "I'm your son after all. Like you, I value a woman more than my own life. If she leaves me, I'll feel like my life has no meaning anymore. But I'll never end up like you! Never!" Jackson said. He turned around and left the memorial hall.Connor, who was waiting outside, was elated to see Jackson come out of the hall. "Mr. Valor!" "Tell the driver to prepare the car. I'm going to the hospital to visit my grandfather," Jackson instructed briefly."Yes, sir," Connor replied.Soon after, a black car drove away from the Valor Residence and headed to the hospital.In the hospital's VIP ward, an old, frail man lay on the bed listening to the doctor telling him about his current condition. A moment later, he impatiently waved his hand and asked, "Just tell me how much time I have left

"So? It's my choice who I want to be with," Jackson answered nonchalantly.*Cough cough*... *cough*...The old man got mad, which made him cough uncontrollably. His coughing bout took a while to pass. "You're that eager to make the same mistake as your father did?" he asked.Jackson responded with his own question, "You also believe that Serenity would be the death of me?" Master Zack fell silent. After a brief pause, he said, "That brat from the Gomez family has feelings for Serenity Lewis too. He doesn't even know that Serenity Lewis is the person he's been searching for yet. If he finds out, what are your chances of winning? Wasn't your decision to break up with Serenity Lewis partly because of that Gomez brat? You're worried that Serenity will betray you for him, right?"Jackson stared intently at the old man. The old man was probably the person who understood him the best in this world. "It's fine as long as I make sure she doesn't betray me," Jackson said."And how can
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 1000
Lisa wanted to refer to herself as his big sister at first, but she was too embarrassed to do that after hearing the little boy call Serenity "auntie." Yanny looked at Lisa and then at his mother with his beautiful eyes. Though he was young, he understood that it was thanks to the help of these unfamiliar people that he could attend a kindergarten. "Thank you, Auntie Lisa," Yanny said. He enunciated his words very clearly. If it weren't for the hearing aid he was wearing, Lisa wouldn't have known that Yanny was deaf in both ears. "Haha, don't mention it!" Lisa beamed, then pointed to her cheek, asking Yanny for a kiss.Yanny's little face blushed slightly, but he did not seem to dislike this smiley auntie he had just met. He hugged her neck and gave her a gentle peck on the cheek.Lisa was overjoyed. It felt like an angel's kiss. She lifted Yanny up and gave him several kisses on his face.Yanny blushed profusely.Seeing his girlfriend's odd behavior, Terry felt jealous. He r
My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 1001
Fortunately, the conversation about Lucas did not last long. Lisa quickly changed the subject and stopped talking about him.After the meal, Terry drove Serenity back to her place before sending Clara and Yanny back home. When Yanny got out of the car, Lisa gave the little one another kiss and waved goodbye. She also promised a gift on his first day of kindergarten.Lisa was still saying goodbye to Yanny. Seeing Lisa's reluctance to leave, Terry stepped on the accelerator and took off."Hey! I still have a lot to say!" Lisa grumbled in displeasure."I didn't realize you liked children so much," Terry said in a muffled voice, wondering why Lisa rarely kissed him that much. Terry thought about the meeting today and counted—Lisa had kissed the kid at least seven or eight times today. "I have love!" Lisa blurted out, making Terry roll his eyes."Well, don't you feel bad for the child?" Lisa shrugged. "I heard from Serenity that Yanny was born in prison. He was deaf from birth. It

Terry arched his eyebrow slightly. "What? Do you think I'll be like Wilson? Are you afraid I'd rather believe in someone else's words than listen to you?""If you're really like this, I'll never forgive you. I'll forget you and find another man to love…" Lisa snapped back, but Terry did not let her finish speaking.Terry leaned over, grasping hold of her chin. He tilted her face and kissed her lips, quieting her in the fierce kiss. He kissed her deeply, possessively, and a little roughly.Lisa initially struggled with the kiss, but the sensations crashed over her, drowning her in the kiss. She soon wrapped her arms around his neck, kissing him back.When the kiss ended, her cheeks were crimson, her eyes moist and alluring. "You can't possibly forget me and fall in love with another man," Terry rasped, his tone firm. Terry wondered if Lisa knew how she could stir his feelings with this look of hers alone. She was so attractive with the way she looked at him, making him obsessed

“……” 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
