My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! Chapter 378
Jackson knew that she was afraid of the dark. She had the habit of leaving the lights on even when she slept. There was a period of time when she was renting her own place. At the time, she could sleep with the lights off, but she seemed to have reverted to her old habit of sleeping with the lights on. Jackson frowned at the possibility that she wasn’t in her room. Just as he was about to turn and leave, he heard a muffled sound coming from within. So she was in her room the whole time! He paused in his tracks and reached for the light switch in the dark. The room was engulfed in brightness the moment the lights were switched on. Immediately, he noticed a slender figure curled up in the corner of the room. She buried her face in her knees, and her shoulders twitched as she sobbed silently. Was she crying?Jackson’s eyes narrowed instantly. He approached her and knelt down next to her. “What’s wrong? What happened?” His voice made her freeze up momentarily. Then, she slow

“I know,” replied Serenity through her sobbing. Now that things had come to this, she had no idea what other method she could use to acquire fifty million dollars. Jackson smiled at her. “I’m not gonna pay you,” he said. Serenity froze up immediately. All of a sudden, she felt like a deflated balloon as the last glimmer of hope faded from her eyes. Of course, he wasn’t going to pay her. What made her think that he would fork out such an outrageous sum of money just because she promised to stay with him?Serenity laughed at how pathetic she was. Did she really think that his interest in her was worth that much money? She silently lowered her head, and her grip on his hand gradually loosened. Jackson gazed at her silently. After a while, he stood up and said, “Sis, I think you should get a proper rest first. I’ll get the servants to prepare some food for you. After that, you should go get some sleep.” After telling her that, he got up and left the room. That left Serenity alo

Jackson walked up to her with the plate of food and placed it in front of her. “Sis, if you want to know where your mother’s buried, finish this.” Serenity abruptly lifted her head and stared at him in astonishment. What did he mean by that? Could it be…“Do you know where my mom’s buried?” “I’ll tell you after you eat your food,” replied Jackson. Serenity was energized in an instant. She picked up the plate and began devouring everything on her plate. The sight of her eating like this made Jackson furrow his brows. She wasn’t acting like her usual self. Still, this proved how important her mother’s grave was to her. Wearing a slight frown, Jackson inspected the tear stains on her face, as well as her swollen eyes, which had become worse than before. Did that mean she started crying again after he left the room earlier?“Slow down, even if your mother’s grave was moved to the North Pole, I’ll still bring you to her!” assured Jackson. “On the other hand, you’d waste more

“Before you asked me for the money, why didn’t you ask for my help in tracking down your mother’s grave?” asked Jackson. Serenity was caught by surprise when she heard his question. At that moment, she realized how foolish she was. Even if she really handed fifty million to her father, was he really going to stop at that? Who’s to say he wouldn’t ask for more?As Jackson suggested, she really should have just sought his help in finding out where her mother’s grave was moved. The only explanation was that she was blinded by panic. She couldn’t believe she had managed to overlook such an obvious option. “Can you bring me there now?” she asked anxiously. At this point, the only time she could be at ease is after personally visiting her mother’s grave. “There’s no need to rush. You should rest first. If you’re feeling sleepy, you can take a nap first,” advised Jackson. But how could she sleep now? Serenity could only stare at him with helpless eyes. After roughly 15 minutes, h

“From our investigation, after Ms. Lewis’s father removed her mother’s urn from its original location, he placed it here and paid three months’ rent in advance. After a brief visit on the first day, he never returned again.” Connor continued, “We’ve asked around, but he hasn’t reached out to any cemetery in particular, nor has he initiated any plans to purchase a new grave plot.” Serenity’s eyes remained firmly planted on the urn. So… he never really planned to relocate her grave all this time? Everything he did until this point was just to get her to fork out the money.It was likely that after her use was expended, he would simply throw the urn back at her. What a terrible father. Well, at least she wouldn’t have to worry about his funeral expenses in the future. Serenity wondered how her mother would feel if she knew how she was being treated by a man that she once loved. Even after her death, he still had the audacity to use her. Serenity found the situation as sad as

“No, I’m fine with this place!” replied Serenity hastily. The grave plot Jackson had picked for her mother had its own private space compared to the other graves. Using an analogy with the different types of houses, the rest of the cemetery was like an apartment block, while her mother’s grave was a standalone bungalow. The private grave plot was neatly lined with a row of trees. There were also marble tables and chairs for visitors within the compound. “Very well,” said Jackson. “Then it’s time for you to lay down your mother’s ashes.” Serenity nodded before she knelt down and placed the urn inside a hole specially dug to contain the urn. Then, the workers covered the hole with cement, thus sealing the grave. One of them passed a contract over to her. It contained a fifty-year lease over the grave plot. She was shocked when she saw the price of the lease. It was so expensive that she probably wouldn’t be able to afford the lease even prior to the incident. “All expenses ha

Jackson’s pitch-black hair contrasted his fair skin. From her position, she could clearly see his beautiful neck, his shapely ear, and the side profile of his face. Everything about him was magnetic as she couldn’t look away from him. At that moment, she felt even his ear was much better looking than any other person’s. When he straightened his back and turned to face her, Serenity felt her heart hammering against her chest. His gaze under the moonlight was gentle. His lips opened and closed, creating sounds that tugged at her heartstrings as if they were a magical harp. At that moment, Serenity felt her surroundings fade away, making him the only existing being in her world. Then, she watched as his face inched closer. His facial features were flawless as if they were sculpted by God’s own hands. “What’s the matter?” his voice sounded. Serenity snapped out of her reverie and realized she had fallen into a trance from staring at him. “It’s… it’s nothing,” replied Sereni

Serenity noticed that whenever Jackson glanced at her, there would always be a hint of fascination in his gaze as if they had already known each other for years. However, she also noticed that he would quickly revert to his usual self, who acted as if he desperately wanted to leave her.Something seemed to have changed recently, as she noticed the struggle in his eyes. At that moment, Serenity had no idea what was the appropriate response. Under his intense gaze, her face grew bright red. “Why are you looking away? I want you to look at me, sis!” said Jackson as he moved closer to her. As if his voice contained a magical spell, her gaze unwittingly returned to his face. When she looked at him, she was met with a gentle gaze, from which she sensed longing and attachment. His hair was slicked back, which left his forehead exposed. In her mind, the image of him right now kept overlapping with “Jack” from before. Back then, Jack would also look at her in the same way. “Perhaps,
