"Caleb..." Lucas seemed to be crying and laughing at the same time, like a child with a broken heart, "What should I do? I missed out... I missed out on her... Am I going to lose her forever? I'm only a few days late, only a few days... Why didn't I believe her? Why didn't I get down from the car and listen to what she had to say? Why? I was her only hope when she was desperate, but I pushed her away..."Lucas screamed, roared and cried over and over again... Caleb had never seen Lucas behave like this. All he could do was to stay by Lucas' side and console him as best he could.After having dinner in the Valor Residence, Serenity took a shower, put on the pajamas Jackson prepared for her, and went to Jackson's bedroom.Her personal belongings and clothes had already been moved into this room.This room was not unfamiliar to her, but she had never slept in it before. The room's decoration and furniture had a grayish tone, which gave off a cold vibe, but today, there were some red

"Why are you crying?" Jackson walked up to her with a slight frown.Serenity sniffled and said, "Just now... Lisa's parents called to inform me that Lisa has been transferred to the new hospital. Thank you," she sincerely thanked him.Jackson said casually, "It's part of the deal. I promised you, so of course I would do it. There's no need to thank me. You married me so that I would help Lisa Quest after all."He dried his wet hair with a bath towel while he spoke.She took a deep breath, walked forward, and said, "Let me... do it for you." In the past, after he washed his hair, he would always ask her to help him wipe it dry.His body tensed up. He raised his head to look at her, his jet-black eyes looking deep behind the wet locks that dropped down his forehead. "Are you trying to please me?""You're free to think that," Serenity said, "Even though we only got married because of Lisa, I don't want our marriage to become a catastrophe. After all, if you don't divorce me, then we

Considering the financial power of the Valor family, even if the babies were born prematurely, they would surely receive the best medical care possible, which would greatly enhance their chances of survival."But what would happen to you? Have you ever thought about that?" He couldn't help raising his voice."If we have to take a risk anyway, I'd rather take that risk together with my babies. I'm their mother. I can't let them take all the risk while I remain safe and sound."He tensed up at the word "mother."His own mother left him behind and walked away when he was gravely injured.But Serenity was willing to take a huge risk for the sake of her children.Her mother and Serenity were completely different people... Serenity would surely be a good mother. Their children would not experience what he did."Jack, I really want to keep all three babies.""You can say that I'm being too impractical, too emotional or too irrational, but... you don't understand how crushed I was when

For a time, she was able to sleep with the lights off.It was only after breaking up with him that she once again had to have the lights on in order to fall asleep!Serenity was counting sheep with her eyes closed, hoping to fall asleep quickly.But for some reason, she couldn't.There was another person lying next to her. Even with her eyes closed, she could smell his scent, and... if she just moved a tiny bit, she would come into contact with his body.The bed was large, but somehow, she would easily make contact with his body.She counted to a thousand and still couldn't fall asleep, so she opened her eyes again.She was lying on her side, so the moment she opened her eyes, a handsome face came into view.His eyes were closed, and his long eyelashes formed shadows on his eyelids, as if they were fans.His high nasal bridge, sharp jawline, and sexy thin lips were very pleasing to the eye.When he's asleep like this, he did not give off an oppressive aura like he would when

She closed her eyes and tried to calm herself.This time, she fell asleep very quickly.Jackson slowly opened his eyes to look at the woman lying next to him. Her steady breathing let him know that she had fallen asleep.She had no idea how much willpower it took to stop her from touching him just now.He was afraid that once she touched his chest, he would no longer be able to suppress his desire!As expected, the doctors' risk assessment report recommended a multifetal pregnancy reduction surgery. After all, it was objectively the most prudent option.However, the assessment report did not say that it was the only option. The doctors had also come up with an alternative plan that would enable all three babies to be born, but the risk was much higher. Also, it would cause some damage to Serenity's body."If you insist on giving birth to all three babies, it would be very dangerous for your uterus. Your uterus may experience massive blood loss during labor. If we can't stop the

From last night to this morning, she had repeatedly expressed her desire to not undergo the surgery.But if something were to happen to her, he...There was a complicated look in Jackson's eyes as he asked, "Are you sure?""I'm very sure," Serenity said."You won't regret it no matter what?" he asked.She answered, "I'll never regret it!"Jackson pursed his lips. After a moment, he turned to the group of specialists and asked, "If she doesn't undergo the surgery and insists on giving birth to all three babies, what are the odds of keeping all of them safe, including the mother?""50%," the specialists gave him an estimate.Jackson's lips pursed even tighter. That's not even a passing grade in his opinion.He never wanted to do anything he wasn't sure about, but now... "We'll proceed with the plan of keeping all three babies for now. But if the situation becomes dangerous... prioritize the mother's safety!""But..." Serenity wanted to protest, but Jackson interrupted her."Se

From the car, Jackson watched Serenity walk into the hospital.She had no idea that she wasn't just gambling with her life this time, she was gambling with his life too.If she lived, he would live as well.But if anything happened to her, he would not live alone. If she wanted to gamble, he would gamble with her – with his life!Lisa's ward was an ICU ward, but it was a relatively private ICU ward. There was even a room next door for family members to sleep in.The environment and conditions here were quite a bit better than that in the previous hospital.Upon seeing Serenity, Lisa's father and mother thanked her profusely."Auntie and Uncle, there's no need for this. Lisa sacrificed so much for me. This is the least I could do for her," Serenity said. She was more concerned about her friend's condition. "What did the doctors say? Did they say when Lisa would be out of critical condition?""They didn't say, so it might take some time. But they did say that they would bring th

"Gown?" Serenity was confused."Yes, it's a maid-of-honor dress," the other party said, "Miss Lisa Quest has already paid in full, so you just need to come over to pick it up. Miss Lisa Quest actually left us her phone number too, but we can't reach her.""She's... hospitalized. I'll come over to pick it up now," Serenity said. She hung up after getting the address.A maid-of-honor dress...? Lisa did mention that she had custom-made a maid-of-honor dress for Serenity, and that she would give Serenity a surprise. Lisa seemed so happy when she told Serenity that.Serenity found the boutique according to the address. It was a rather high-end boutique for customized clothing. All the clothes inside were rather pricey. Lisa probably spent a lot of money on the maid-of-honor dress.Serenity walked into the boutique and told the clerk who greeted her, "I'm Serenity Lewis. Someone from your store notified me to come pick up a dress earlier.""No problem. Please wait for a moment," the cl
