"Jack," answered Serenity. "I don't know how long I have to stay here for. I want to tell him not to wait for me for dinner."Serenity searched for Jack's contact in the phone and called him.The call was quickly picked up. Jackson's slightly cold voice greeted her, "Sis.""I have to take care of something, so I'll be home late today. You... should take care of dinner yourself," said Serenity.“What do you mean "take care of something"? Just tell him that you're in the hospital!” Lisa chimed in."Sis, you're in the hospital?" There seemed to be a slight change in Jackson's tone."Yeah. I tripped and fell, so I'm now in the hospital waiting to get an X-ray," replied Serenity."Which hospital? I'll be right there," said Jackson."You don't have to come. Lisa's with me. Just wait for me at home," she quickly said.The other end of the call was silent. After a moment, Jackson's cold voice could be heard again. He repeated the question insistently, "Which hospital?""Solaria Gener

He only paid more attention to Serenity than usual because of what the director said.At that moment, someone else walked into the consulting room and went to Serenity's side. He said, "Sis.""You're here," said Serenity. He arrived faster than she thought."Yeah, the heavy traffic delayed me a bit," said Jackson."Doctor, how is she? Is she okay? Someone tripped her and she fell several steps down the escalator," Lisa asked nervously."The fall didn't hurt her that much. She only had some minor bone fractures on her ankle. She'll be fine after resting for a couple of weeks, but..." Dr. House hesitated a little."But what?" asked Lisa."But Miss Lewis, did you get injured a lot in the last few years?" asked Dr. House.The question surprised Serenity. She wasn't sure how to answer that."I don't mean to pry. It's just that, your X-ray shows that you suffered a lot of injuries in the last few years. Some of your old injuries didn't heal properly, so there might be some complicat

When she said "Jackson Valor", his body stiffened, almost imperceptibly."Do you hate Jackson Valor?" he asked softly.She sighed a little. "Maybe. Everyone in Solaria knows who he is. The person who died in the car accident was Jackson Valor's fiancée, Mira Hall, so naturally, I wouldn't get off easy. The more people wanted to please him, the more I suffered."After a pause, she said almost self-deprecatingly, "Sometimes, I do wonder – if the person who died in the car accident wasn't Mira Hall, would I have won the case? Maybe I wouldn't have to go to prison for three years and go through all that."She was not resentful or angry, but her self-deprecation made him feel even more guilty.He was probably responsible for half the pain she suffered.He crouched down in front of her. Through his heavy bangs, his eyes stared at her fixedly. "If I had known that you would suffer so much, I would have protected you three years ago."He was not saying that because of the game. It came

"You're very light," replied Jackson. He was telling the truth. Although Serenity was over 160 cm tall, Jackson estimated that she weighed no more than 45 kg. He would make sure to feed her well from now on.She leaned her face against his back. It felt very warm. When was the last time she had been carried like this? She could only remember her mother carrying her like this when she was a child.However, the memory was very fuzzy because it was so long ago."Jack, you're so nice," she murmured."Are you going to say that I'm a nice guy again?" he asked."What I'm trying to say is, you're a really nice little brother. I'm so lucky to have a little brother like you," she said.Little brother... His eyes flickered slightly.When this game started, wasn't he the one who chose to stay by her side as a younger brother? She asked him to call her Sis.But now, it seemed like he no longer wanted her to think of him as just a younger brother. He wanted... more.Jackson carried Serenit

In the apartment, Jackson carefully placed Serenity down on a chair, then went to reheat the food that had gone cold.Looking at Jackson getting busy, Lisa changed her mind about him. She used to dislike the idea of Serenity living with a stranger, but he obviously treated Serenity very well.Lisa was glad to know that someone was taking care of her best friend like this.Lisa soon went home. Jackson and Serenity had a simple dinner together. After the meal, Serenity wanted to clean up, but Jackson said, "I'll do it. You shouldn't move around too much."Serenity thus had nothing to do.After doing the dishes, Jackson asked Serenity, "Sis, do you need to go to the bathroom?""Huh?" She was stunned for a moment, and then her face turned red."Do you need to go to the bathroom or not?" he asked, as if it was just a really ordinary question.She looked embarrassed, but finally gave a very small nod.He thus picked her up, carried her to the bathroom, and then backed out again. "Ca

"But if I get fired, I won't have any income. What do we do about rent and food?""I'll take care of them!" he said, "I'll earn enough money to support you, so don't you worry."Serenity stared at him in surprise. She knew that he was only doing odd jobs so he did not earn much, but when he said those words, it somehow gave her a sense of security.It reminded her that she was not alone. She actually had someone to rely on. She could rely on him."Call your boss." He handed her the phone.She bit her lip. In the end, she relented and called her team leader at the Sanitation Office who was responsible for managing them.At first, she thought it would be very difficult to ask for an extended leave, but to her surprise, when she said she needed a week off, the team leader immediately agreed. He even said that if a week was not enough, she could even take two weeks off. Not only that, she would still be paid the basic salary and he would not deduct her pay.Serenity was astonished.

That night, Serenity's muffled scream woke Jackson up. He turned on the light and found that she was not sleeping peacefully. She seemed to be muttering something under her breath.However, her words were so slurred that he could not make out what she was saying."Sis!" he called out to her. He felt her forehead with his hand and found that it was wet with sweat. Her forehead seemed to be a bit hot too.Jackson quickly grabbed a towel, soaked it in warm water, squeezed it dry, and used it to wipe Serenity's forehead.Her eyes were still tightly closed as she kept mumbling.No matter how hard he tried to rouse her, her eyes never opened.He pursed his lips. Anxiety washed over him. He did not know what he could do to make her feel better.It was the first time he had ever felt so worried for a woman.He grabbed his phone and called his secretary, Connor Gunn. Connor thus received a call from his boss at 2 a.m. in the morning."Connor, call a doctor and bring him to Serenity Lew

But after that, Connor immediately reminded himself to stop speculating. It was not something that he should concern himself with.Connor gently closed the door behind him. Inside the house, Jackson looked at the still-asleep Serenity. He brought the medicine in his hand to her slightly dry lips. "Be a good girl and take the medicine, okay?"However, her lips shut tighter instead. He could not even stuff the pill into her mouth, let alone make her swallow it.Jackson pursed his lips so hard that it almost formed a straight line. He put the pill in his mouth together with some water, lowered his head and moved his mouth closer to Serenity's.His lips pressed against hers. The tip of his tongue pried open her lips and pushed the medicine into her mouth. There were actually other methods he could have used, but for some reason, he chose to use this method to feed her the medicine.Even though the medicine was already in her mouth, he was still longing for her lips.The sensation was
