Serenity learned of the Wayne family’s tax evasion scandal from the news even though there were already reports in the past about the same issue. Given their financial capacity, it remained unclear whether they could recover from this incident.The Waynes had their own connections throughout the city. If they were willing to help and if Jackson refrained from pursuing the matter, there was still a chance that they could salvage their business. Whenever she asked Jackson about them, he would respond without hesitation, “Julia mistreated you, so they deserved this.” “But that’s her problem, her family has nothing to...” “Their business was already plagued with issues in the first place. What I did was merely highlight their flaws in advance. What’s more, the businessmen in this city are no fools. They were all waiting for an opportunity just like this to gain more market share in convenience stores across Shermal,” explained Jackson. Serenity more or less understood what he was

“No... you don’t have to go that far.” Serenity was just a delivery driver. If news got out that the mighty Jackson Valor had to find a replacement for her, a lot of jaws would drop to the floor. The blame was still on him for being so enticing, which led to Serenity losing herself in his presence. At least she now understood how it felt to be in love with someone so attractive. “Serenity? Serenity!” Clara’s voice sounded next to her ear, forcing her to snap out of her daydream. “Huh? What’s the matter, Clare?” “I should be the one asking you that! You’ve been staring off into space the whole day. Is something going on?” asked Clara out of concern. “Oh, it’s nothing,” replied Serenity. Despite her answer, her face was flushed red. “Right, how is Mrs. Wells’ leg?”Yesterday, Clara’s mother had fallen and injured her leg. Because Clara had to send her to the hospital, their restaurant had to close early. “It’s nothing too serious. The doctor said she’ll have to undergo a

“Hmm? You don’t enjoy movie premieres?” asked Jackson. “No, it’s not that,” replied Serenity while shaking her head. Her problem was that movie premieres weren’t attended by regular movie-goers. The movie stars themselves would be present at the premiere.It was just too...Serenity forced herself to suppress the imaginations in her head as she still had a mission to accomplish. “I have to send Yanny to class, so I’m not sure if that’s possible.” Upon hearing that, Jackson’s gaze left her and fell on the little boy standing next to her. “Why are you sending him to school?” From his tone, one could almost detect a hint of jealousy.“Clara’s mother hurt herself and is scheduled for a minor operation in the afternoon. Clara’s at the hospital with her mother, so I volunteered to send him to his class.” Jackson frowned silently at her reply. Having come under his intense gaze, Yannick grew visibly uncomfortable, so he moved closer to Serenity and grasped her hands tightly. Na

“Then there shouldn’t be a problem. The premiere starts at five o'clock in the afternoon. We can still make it after his class ends.” “Oh?” Serenity was pleasantly surprised. She thought she had missed out on the chance to catch the premiere. “Well, I don’t see why not,” Jackson chuckled. “Even if we can’t make it in time, I can make them hold another premiere when you’re available.” His reply caught her by surprise. He was willing to go that far just for her? Though now that she thought about it, it wasn’t that hard for him to pull off such a stunt. While Serenity didn’t want Jackson to spend too much time planning another premiere just for her, she felt the sweetness in his promise. It was the gesture of love that she cherished. When they arrived at their destination, Serenity held Yanny’s hand as she brought him out of the vehicle. Jackson silently followed them to the classroom. This place was filled with children wearing cochlear implants. Like Yanny, they were accompa

The parent replied enviously, “So he’s your boyfriend! What a nice guy, to accompany you in this activity. I’m sure he’ll make a great dad if you two get married. It’s rare to see a man as patient as this these days. Take a look around, and all you see are mothers.” The thought of having children with Jackson made Serenity blush. After their conversation ended, she glanced down at her flat belly. She had been taking supplements to boost her fertility, but she wondered if it was working. In any case, she was still hopeful. At the very least, she wasn’t as pessimistic as before whenever the question of having children came up. Suddenly, she heard someone whisper in her ear. “I’m gonna be a good father if we have children together.” Serenity was momentarily taken aback. Jackson had moved so close that her lips brushed against his cheek when she turned around. It happened so quickly, but her face started to burn up. “I swear, I will do my best to protect you and our child.” He kn

“Sure,” replied Jackson. After all, bringing an extra child to the movie premiere wasn’t a particularly difficult task. “But are you sure he can understand the movie?” Serenity searched her memory. If she recalled correctly, the movie was marketed to everyone, including children. Although Yanny was considered fairly young, she was more worried that he wouldn’t understand the words being said.At the same time, going to the theatre would be a brand-new experience for the boy. She could whisper softly and give him hints of the plot or signal to him with her hands. All of a sudden, she realized how meaningful it was to bring Yanny along! She looked forward to seeing his reaction to the big screen. Using sign language, she asked the boy if he had watched the movie already. Yanny shook his head. “Then, would you like to watch the movie together with Auntie later?” asked Serenity while using sign language to assist his understanding. The boy nodded excitedly. Although he underst

Also, what's the deal with the woman beside Jackson Valor?This kind of situation could easily give rise to gossip. Serenity noticed the weird gazes cast their way and instantly understood what other people were thinking."Umm... I think these people might have misunderstood," Serenity whispered to Jackson.Jackson smiled and asked, "Misunderstood? Misunderstood what?" His voice sounded a little mischievous.Well... Could he really not see how people would misunderstand? Serenity blinked a few times as she stared at Jackson in confusion, but his glittering eyes were crystal clear, so clear that they... seemed very innocent.Therefore, Serenity had to tell him with a slightly red face, "Misunderstood that Yanny is our child!""Let them misunderstand," Jackson said indifferently.Huh? Serenity froze in surprise. Let them misunderstand? Was that...really alright? "But...""No buts," he said, "We're going to have a child sooner or later. Does it make any difference if they think we

Even though the director thought that, he still maintained a smile on his face. He replied, "No problem, no problem at all. I think Finn would be really happy to meet a passionate fan like her."Both sides exchanged further pleasantries before the director excused himself.Serenity could not believe Jackson actually helped her get an opportunity to meet with Finn Gordon. He was helping her... fangirl over a celebrity."What's the matter?" he asked when he saw her dumbfounded face, "Too happy to hear that you're going to take a picture with Finn Gordon and get his autograph?""Yes, I'm happy, but not because of that. It's because..." She could not find the words to express her feelings. The reason she was happy was not because she could meet with Finn Gordon up close and personal, take a picture with him and get his autograph, but because these unintentional actions of Jackson’s made her feel like she was being pampered.She no longer felt like she was a waste of space who was hate

Serenity was relieved to see that. At first, she was worried that Yanny might find the movie boring because he's too young to understand it. She was prepared to leave if Yanny wanted to leave.It's great that Yanny's enjoying the movie. Now, everybody's happy!Serenity could now focus most of her attention on the movie.She had to say, the movie was really good. The casting was great and the actors suited the characters. The special effects were beautiful too. Although the movie's plot was simple, it did not feel boring.In this movie, Finn Gordon's role was different from what he had done before. He was trying to break his mold. It was a major challenge for him.In Serenity's opinion, Finn's performance in this movie was excellent. He performed his role very well.She even cried during the movie’s climax.Even she was surprised by that. She was not someone who cried easily. Usually, when she watched movies with Lisa, even if Lisa bawled her eyes out, Serenity would not shed a t

If it was possible, he did not want her to be sad or cry again for the rest of her life!While Jackson was kissing away her tears, Serenity did not dare to move a muscle. The spots that he kissed felt scorching hot.By the time the movie ended, Serenity was not thinking straight anymore. She watched about 80% of the movie attentively, but because he was kissing her for the final 20%, she could not pay attention to the movie.She only remembered the last scene in the movie.Unlike her, Yannick thoroughly enjoyed the movie. Even after the movie ended, he was still immersed in it and acted like he wanted to beat up the bad guys.Serenity stroked the little boy's head. She felt like she made the right decision to bring the boy to the premiere."Do you want to come with me to meet the actor? He plays the main character who beat up the bad guys just now," Serenity asked Yanny with both her voice and with sign language."Okay," Yannick said that word very clearly.Serenity was glad. Y
