Theresa had been trying hard to persuade Emily. After all, her father and brothers had promised to give her thirty thousand dollars out of the three hundred thousand dollars.Thirty thousand dollars was a year's salary for her!However, Emily would not agree to whatever Theresa and Henry said. Finally, Theresa left a harsh warning, "Mom! Fran and Des have spoken. If you ruin this, Micah and Myran won't be able to afford a house or get married. They'll resent you for the rest of their lives!"Emily was furious and anxious. "How could you... Do you all even have a conscience?! Have you forgotten how Serenity treated us?!"Theresa laughed. "Mom, that's all in the past. Things have changed. You can't let her ruin our family and the children’s future. Besides, it's partly Serenity's fault that Micah and Myran can't get married. When a girl from a good family hears that someone from our family was in prison, would she want to marry into the family? If they don't even have a house ready,

No one was talking in the ward, and there was no sound other than the sound of eating as the grandfather and grandson barely spoke a word.The nurse serving Zack found the situation a little odd. However, she stayed quiet, not daring to ask. After all, these two men were very powerful in Solaria.Just as Zack was about to finish his dinner, he finally spoke and broke the silence. "I heard you haven't been staying in the Valor Residence these days?""Yeah," Jackson responded plainly. He was not surprised about Zack's knowledge of this. After all, someone in Valor Residence must have kept an eye on him and reported it to him."Where do you live now?""Elsewhere," Jackson said."Why do you want to live outside?" Zack asked."Valor Residence is a little too quiet," Jackson responded in a seemingly casual manner as he picked up another cooked shrimp and slowly peeled it."Speaking of which, you're already at the age to get married. I'll have my secretary compile a list of the city's

The group suddenly panicked. Seeing that the room was about to be searched, Kyle immediately yelled, "Do you have the right to perform a search?! How can the police just barge in?!"Kyle and Maeve tried to rush forward, but the police officers stopped them. Someone soon discovered that the door to a certain room was locked.Just then, another car arrived in front of Kyle's house, and a tall figure stepped out of the car and walked into the yard. Meanwhile, a police officer walked to the man and informed him about the situation."There's a locked door. She may be inside."As the police officer spoke, he led the man to the locked room door. In the meantime, the group of four became desperate and gave all sorts of excuses, refusing to open the door.Jackson stared at the door and commanded coldly, "Break the door open."Someone immediately took an axe and split the door open."You can't go in! This is trespassing! I'm going to sue!" Kyle and Maeve shouted. No matter how loud they w

Jackson held the woman carefully in his arms. Anyone who saw that could tell how important she was to him.Some of those present who knew Jackson's true identity were secretly surprised to see this.After all, the most powerful man in Solaria had arrived at a place like this in the early hours of the morning and caused such a big scene all just for a woman. No matter who she was, she might soon cause a stir in Solaria."Find out who is involved in this. Don't leave anyone out," Jackson ordered."Yes." One of the men with Jackson answered.At the same time, Kyle and Maeve were devastated to see their son, Felix, screaming in pain. They were about to cry seeing the yard full of police officers.The couple glared at Serenity's uncles with great resentment. "Who is this woman you gave us?!"Francis and Desmond's faces were ashen, and they looked at each other at a loss. Their niece was an ex-convict, out of prison for less than half a year. They thought she was just a helpless woman

"Jack..."Serenity murmured softly, and her whispering voice hit Jackson's heart hard, as if with the weight of a million pounds.Serenity raised her chin, and a smile bloomed on her face as she kissed him fiercely.Jackson looked at her in confusion. She was so close to him, and he could have avoided the kiss, but... He chose not to.Serenity was the only one who could make him like this.When he heard her calling his name in a rasping voice, he finally snapped back to his senses. He had almost lost his mind earlier!Jackson took a deep breath and rang the emergency call bell.Not long after, the doctors and nurses rushed over and gave Serenity another dose of sedative. Finally, Serenity quieted down once more. Connor noticed something different about Jackson. Connor had been with Jackson for years. Others might not have noticed anything, but he could sense something different about Jackson.'Could it be...' Connor glanced at Serenity on the bed. Suddenly, a moment of clarit
