Chapter 1005
Sandra had to find a way to fix her mistake. She later found an opportunity to meet Wilson and 'unintentionally' told him about the bone marrow transplant, which made Wilson mistake her as his savior. From then on, Wilson thought Sandra was the one who had saved his life.Meanwhile, Clara did not even know that the man she had saved was the man she had fallen in love with—the same man who had put her in prison. Sandra had to become Mrs. Birch, so this was a secret she would never let Wilson or Clara know! ***Serenity took the file from Mr. Graham and was a little startled when she realized she had to send it to the Gomez Group. "What's wrong?" Mr. Graham asked. "This is an urgent document. The courier won't make it in time. They need it urgently, which is why I asked you to make a trip.""No problem," Serenity said, knowing there was no way for her to completely avoid Lucas. Many law firms in Solaria would have some form of business relationship with the Gomez Group. It wou

Lucas' behavior had placed Serenity in the spotlight. Serenity felt troubled, but the problem was... She did not have a choice. In the Gomez Group, she had no control over where Lucas wanted to go.When Lucas brought Serenity to the legal department, the whole department was shocked by his presence. The head of the department, Mr. Gregory, respectfully welcomed them into the meeting room and carefully took the documents from Serenity's hand. Mr. Gregory said with an awkward smile, "Sorry for the trouble. Please call us next time. We'll send someone to pick it up." Lucas had personally accompanied Serenity to the legal department. Clearly, she was someone important to him. When Lucas had been interviewed the other day, he had mentioned that he had fallen in love with a woman. Even Mr. Gregory could not help but wonder if Serenity was the same woman Lucas had mentioned. Everyone in the office was shocked by the interview, and many were speculating about the woman Lucas loved. Pr

Lucas looked at her intently, almost like he could see so far into her mind that he knew her thoughts.Serenity's heart almost skipped a beat. Taking a deep breath, she called his name instead this time. "Yes, Lucas. I don't want you to fall in love with me. I just want a peaceful life now. I don't want to play any more love games.""I've never regarded my love for you as a game. I'm serious about it," Lucas said soberly. "Did you think I was just fooling around? Can you tell me what I should do to make you think otherwise?"Serenity chewed at her lip, trying to think. "I'm tired. I really don't have the energy to love anymore.""I'll love you and wait until you have the strength to do so again. Don't be so cold to me. Please stop pushing me away," Lucas pleaded.Serenity looked at him, puzzled. "Why me? I'm just a nobody. I've been in prison for three years." Serenity added, feeling a little guilty, "Besides, I'm not the one you're looking for." "Yeah, why does it have to be

"Well… Why don't I go to his office and wait for him?" Lynette asked."I don't think that's a good idea, Ms. Blossom. I think you should wait outside," Blake said.Lynette gritted her teeth and sat down on the couch outside. Although respectful, Blake's attitude toward her felt different from before. Blake poured her a cup of coffee when she sat down, just like he normally did, but he did not try to flatter her like before.'Is it because of what Lucas said in the interview?' Lynette thought about how Lucas had openly stated that he was not dating her in the interview and became angry again.Lynette's classmates at school and the snobs at work were mocking her with all kinds of accusations after what Lucas had said in the interview. Many people had been flattering her because of Lucas, but that seemed to have changed. She was back to her original form.While lost in her thoughts, Lynette saw a senior executive walking out of the elevator. The executive approached Blake, asking, "M

"Serenity," Lynette asked curiously, "Remember the other day at the police station? Lucas said he had fallen in love with you. What do you think of him?""Mr. Valor seems to care about you a lot. Did you and Mr. Valor really break up?" Lynette probed, but Serenity simply looked at her indifferently and did not answer.Lynette seemed worried. "Serenity, you should know. I'm not well educated, and I've been married once. Lucas is the only man I can rely on, and… After getting along with him these days, I really like him."Lynette continued with a shy smile, "You have Jackson, but I only have Lucas. You won't compete with me for Lucas, will you?" Serenity did not answer Lynette. Instead, she kept staring at her, making her feel weak."Serenity, why are you staring at me like that? I-I know I've upset you before, but I'm saying this to you with all my heart now.""So? What kind of answer do you want?" Serenity asked. "Will you feel better if I say that I don't love Lucas and don't h

Connor did not dare to ask any questions. He simply started the car and slowly drove away from Serenity's neighborhood.Jackson closed his eyes softly, tiredness filling him. The moment he had seen her earlier seemed so magical—it filled him with emotions, making him content. The moment she was gone from his sight, his heart was achingly empty again. Serenity could easily affect his emotions, filling and emptying his heart! Was he simply incapable of not loving her?!"Connor," Jackson's voice rang in the car. "Do you think I still love Serenity?"Connor froze slightly. That was the hardest question to answer!"Well... Mr. Valor… Umm…" Connor stammered, hesitating on what would be the best answer.Jackson seemed to have sensed Connor's intentions. He commanded coldly, "Tell me the truth!" "Mr. Valor," Connor had no choice but to tell the truth. "You do. It's the way you look at her. Otherwise, you wouldn't be so angry after knowing Mr. Gomez had fallen in love with Ms. Lewis."
Chapter 1011
Susie was later taken away by the bailiff. She had no choice but to consider herself unlucky! Serenity was a little stunned by Susie's reply. Did Susie's confession have something to do with Lucas?Mr. Graham, on the other hand, had a thoughtful look on his face.When Serenity and Mr. Graham reached the entrance, they saw a Maserati parked in front of the courthouse. Lucas soon emerged from the car, looking at Serenity.Mr. Graham gently patted Serenity's shoulder and said, "Thank Mr. Gomez for me. This case wouldn't have been so easy if not for him."Mr. Graham walked away without waiting for Serenity to reply. He walked down the steps and left after greeting Lucas.Serenity remained on the steps, looking down at Lucas in a daze. Meanwhile, Lucas looked up at Serenity with his chin slightly raised.Some of the people coming out of the courthouse seemed to have noticed the scene, turning their eyes toward them.Taking a deep breath, Serenity walked down the steps. Although he

"It's fine. It's an old problem. Jackson already took me to a specialist doctor," Serenity said, withdrawing her hand. The last time she had visited the specialist doctor, the doctor had told her that she had missed the best period for treatment. The medicines she had taken later were only to relieve the pain she had been experiencing due to the cold and humid weather."We're already here. Why don't you let Mr. Smith take a look? He doesn't usually take in new patients," Lucas said, dragging Serenity into the clinic.Serenity saw no patients inside and found the clinic a little empty. A white-bearded man was sitting on a chair and watching the TV. The 32-inch TV on the wall was playing the most popular drama of the season. Serenity had heard about the show at her office. Her colleagues had said that it was a tear-jerking show.The elderly man was watching the TV show with great concentration, his expression so serious. It was as if he was watching a documentary program."Mr. Smit
