She hesitated for a moment before she said, "It's nothing. I noticed that you didn't go back to your own room after walking me to my room. Instead, you walked towards the stairs. I thought you might be up to something, so... uhh... since you're fine, I guess I'll go back..."She turned around, intending to leave.However, a pair of arms instantly hugged her from behind. "Sis, you were worried about me, weren't you?"Serenity instantly felt his scent enveloping her. She did not know what to say.Worried? Was she worried about him?Her mind was in a mess. Was it because he saved her tonight? That's why she did not think of him as Jackson Valor tonight, but as "Jack", so she was worried about him?While thinking that, she suddenly noticed the sound of his breathing near her ear becoming more rapid. He was also moaning softly in his throat. He slowly loosened his arms that were wrapped around her.Serenity turned around and saw that Jackson's face was pale. His forehead was drenched

Serenity told Jackson, "Wait here for a minute. I'll go get the medicine." After saying that, she ran out of the mourning hall.Jackson lay on the sofa. Wait for a minute?... Back then, when she went out in the middle of the night to buy medicine for him, she said the same thing.Okay, he would wait. He would wait for her to come back...Serenity rushed to the mansion's metal gate. The street lights outside the gate shone on the delivery man's bewildered face.Obviously, the delivery man did not expect to deliver medicine to such a luxurious mansion."Are you Miss Lewis?" the man asked."Yes, that's me," Serenity answered. She took the medicine from him and said thank you. She then turned around and ran back to the mourning hall.The delivery man scratched his head. Looking at the huge mansion before him, he could still hardly believe it.In the Valor Residence's security office, several security guards were watching the surveillance monitors with dumbfounded looks on their fa

He would never tell anyone these things in the past, but at this moment, seeing her standing in front of his father's portrait, he told her so naturally.It was as if he could only pour out these words that were buried deep in his heart when he was talking to her."My father should have met many women back then. There were bound to be some who were even prettier than her, yet he gave up everything for such a woman. He's a fool," Jackson murmured."Your father may not necessarily love your mother because she's beautiful. When you love someone, looks may not be that important anymore. Furthermore... you'll like everything about them, be it the good or the bad," said Serenity.The light in Jackson's eyes flickered slightly. His eyes were fixed on Serenity's face. "Maybe... it's as you say. When you love someone, looks may not be that important anymore..."It was the same for him. He had seen women who were prettier and more considerate than Serenity, but only Serenity could make him

When Lisa could finally hang up, Serenity asked, "What did your mother say to you? You look like you're having a hard time.""What else? She set me up on a blind date." Lisa rolled her eyes. "My mother said the man this time is highly sought-after. She said it took a lot of effort to snatch him from the hands of other mothers. She wanted me to meet him."Lisa sighed helplessly.Her mother seemed to think that if she could not get married in the next two years, she would not be able to get married ever."Just go and meet him then. Take it as an opportunity," Serenity thought about it and said."Nah. I already have enough headaches. A blind date will only bring me more headaches." Lisa felt like coughing blood at the thought of her mother setting her up on blind dates."What's wrong?" asked Serenity.Lisa looked at her best friend and said, "Would you be surprised if I say that I'm dating Terry White?"Serenity almost choked on her own saliva. "You're dating Terry White? Didn't y

Alright! Lisa confirmed the man was the right person she was meeting today.Lisa stepped forward and said, "You must be Mr. Godfrey Longwell. Hello, I'm Lisa.""Hello," the man replied, studying Lisa."Um... I wanted to tell you something. I..." Lisa wanted to apologize to him. After all, she had only agreed to this blind date to appease her mother. She would be fine to treat the man to a meal and consider making a new friend, but nothing further than that.Godfrey interrupted her before she could finish, "Let's just take a stroll here for now. I see there's a small park next to the supermarket. Let's take a walk there."Huh? Go to the park?Lisa glanced at the darkening sky. It was already past five in the afternoon, nearly dinner time. "Aren't you hungry?"She was simply reminding him out of goodwill. After all, this was a crowded area, and many restaurants around here would likely have long queues during dinnertime. If they waited until they finished strolling in the pa
