All Chapters of My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict!: Chapter 981 - Chapter 990

Even if she had a license to practice, it was likely that most clients would turn down her service no matter how enthusiastic she was. “Just keep your head up,” advised Mr. Graham. “In the future, I’ll hand small cases over to you. It’ll help you establish your name in the field, which will be helpful in the future.” “Thank you, “ replied Serenity. After leaving Mr. Graham’s office, Serenity was informed by the receptionist that a Mr. Wall had been waiting for her for a while.She went over to the waiting room and saw Peter sitting there. The moment he saw Serenity, he seemed to be at a loss. As he blushed, he struggled to find his words. “What’s the matter? If you have something to say, you might as well say it now.” “I… I came today because I heard that there’s been a new development for Leon’s case. I heard that Susie will be added as a defendant! Leon’s parents called Mr. Graham, and they said this was all thanks to the clues you uncovered, so I came here today to thank

A few women in the restaurant stole glances at Lucas. Serenity was starting to regret bringing him here.Maybe she should have taken him to a restaurant with private compartments so that they could avoid prying eyes.After ordering, she told Lucas. "I heard you helped look for me after I went missing yesterday. Thank you.""But I wasn't really any help, was I?" Lucas said softly. "Still, I appreciate it. But..." Serenity paused and looked straight at him. "Yesterday, you said you would wait for my answer. I'll give you my answer right now. I don't love you, so you should stop wasting your time on me."Lucas' eyebrows raised slightly. She was the first woman to reject him so thoroughly.She rejected him once when he mistook her for the little girl, and once again now when he fell in love with her. "Is it because of Jackson?" he asked calmly, seemingly unaffected by her rejection. "No," she replied, shaking her head.Even if Jackson never said anything, she would have rejecte

One of the bodyguards immediately went to talk to the restaurant owner while the others forced the guests out of the restaurant, telling them that everything they ordered would be paid for. Some of the guests were unwilling to leave, but when they saw a bunch of people in black suits walking in one after another, they got scared and quickly left.Lucas and Serenity had noticed Jackson standing at the restaurant entrance by now.Serenity was surprised to see Jackson there, but Lucas appeared to expect him. "Would you like to join us?" Lucas asked. "We've already ordered but the food's not served yet."Jackson walked to their table with pursed lips.Serenity instinctively tried to pull her hand back.This time, Lucas didn’t stop her. "Is our food ready?" Lucas asked the stunned restaurant owner.The owner jolted back to his senses and replied, "Ah, yes, I think so!" With that, he hastily went into the kitchen and brought over the food that Lucas and Serenity had ordered."Le

She wondered how the public would react if they found out that she treated Jackson Valor and Lucas Gomez, two of the most important people in Solaria, to a $378 meal.It sounded ridiculous even to Serenity!By the time Serenity reached her apartment, she was exhausted.She quickly took a shower and went to bed.It wasn't her body that was tired, but her mind.She never expected Lucas to tell her that he loved her. Unfortunately, she couldn't reciprocate the love.Besides, even if Lucas truly loved her now, who knew how long it would last? A few months? A year or two?She didn't want to fall in love anymore. The pain of falling in love and then being dumped was too much to bear.Serenity was able to get back on her feet twice, but she didn't know if she could do it a third time.She closed her eyes and emptied her thoughts. She eventually managed to fall asleep.Suddenly, she was jolted awake by an urgent knock at the door. She checked the time and saw that it was past 10pm. S

And later, after she fell in love with him, the wish to protect him became even stronger.Even though she knew that he was a powerful man and that his abilities were far superior to hers, she still wanted to do everything she could to protect him.If he felt insecure, she would do everything she could to make him feel safe. She would love him wholeheartedly and let him know how much he meant to her.But what happened afterwards made her realize that everything she did was nothing but a joke.He never needed her protection.To him, she was nothing more than a pawn.With a bitter smile, Serenity bent down and took off the shoes from Jackson's feet. She would just sleep on the couch.She reached for the blanket to cover him up. Because the bed leaned against one of the walls and the blanket was currently pushed against the wall, she had to reach across his body to grab the blanket.While she was doing that, Jackson suddenly opened his eyes.His pitch-black eyes were flooded with
