Chapter 1371
Jackson's eyes gleamed. It was indeed true that if Lisa had not been seriously injured, Serenity would never have come to him and begged for his help. Naturally, she would also never have agreed to marry him so quickly and decisively if it were not for Lisa."Fine," he said, "I'll think of a way to make Terry White come to Solaria. That way, you won't have to travel to Jorvik and then back here.""What if he refuses to come to Solaria?" Serenity asked."He will come," Jackson replied without any hesitation. "Even if he refuses to come, I'll tie him up and drag him here."As long as it was her wish, he would do anything to make it a reality!And so, two days later, Serenity really did get a chance to meet Terry White in person. The only problem was that he had brought someone with him to Solaria–Miss Monica Hart.Even though Serenity had seen a picture of Monica Hart before, she realized when she met the woman in person that Monica was far more dazzlingly beautiful in person than

"She was?" Terry responded nonchalantly. "She's pretty lucky, then.""That's right. She was pretty lucky indeed because she was quickly found and sent to the hospital soon afterward. Unfortunately, her luck seemed to have run out, because the doctors had noted that she was in a very critical state several times after that. She managed to wake up not too long ago, but yesterday, her condition suddenly became critical again, and this time, the doctors said that even if she manages to stay alive, she'll probably be in a vegetative state forever."Jackson spoke slowly and clearly in a tone that he normally used, just as if he was merely relaying a piece of mundane information.However, Terry's expression quickly changed. He sprang up to his feet and demanded, "How did that happen?!""How could it not turn out this way," Jackson smiled faintly, "when the news that the White family and the Hart family will be joined in matrimony have been spread all over the internet? Everyone knows abou

Serenity could only hear her friend laboriously uttering one word after another, slowly telling her, "Serenity… I… I want to see… I want to see Terry… Could… Could you help me find him…? Could you… help me… contact him… and tell him… that I want to see him… that no matter what happens… I believe in him…"Suddenly, tears began to stream down Serenity's face. She did not even have a clue how to answer Lisa when Terry White, the man that Lisa believed in, was with another woman right now, and in fact… she might have to break the news that Lisa never wished to hear!As tears streamed down her eyes, Terry suddenly darted toward her and asked, "What happened to Lisa? Did something bad happen to her?"Serenity was still choked up and had not even begun to speak when Terry snatched her phone away. He then shouted anxiously at the phone, "What happened to Lisa?!""Terry…" That was the only word he could hear from the other end of the line, but it was enough to make his whole body freeze b

"Are you okay? Are you hurt anywhere?"At that point, Jackson became the most anxious person in the room. The moment he saw her staggering backward, he could feel every drop of blood in his body almost freezing over.Serenity was also in shock herself, and her face had gotten very pale. She knew that she had acted too rashly just now and that if she really fell, the three babies in her belly would be in danger.After regaining her composure, she replied, "I… I'm fine."Jackson supported her and helped her stand firmly on her feet again before he turned his cold gaze toward Terry."Mr. White," he said, "I hope you understand that if anything happened to my wife just now, I'll make sure that the White family disappears from Jorvik City forever.""Really?" Terry responded, unbothered. "Aren't you getting too busy, Mr. Valor? You've got your hands full here in Solaria, and you're trying to dip your toes in Jorvik City too? Okay, then. If you think you've got what it takes to make the

The three of them then got into the car and headed toward the hospital.Now that Lisa had been transferred to the general ward, the hospital had arranged a VIP private room for her. It was a pretty comfortable room. It even came with a guest bed nearby where either her father or her mother would sleep at night to accompany her.At that moment, Lisa sat quietly on her bed. She had even made an effort to tidy up the hospital gown she was wearing. Her head was still wrapped in thick layers of white bandages, and her usually bright and pretty face now seemed pale and haggard after two major operations and a long hospital stay.Her parents also stood quietly by her side. They both knew that once their daughter made up her mind to do something, nothing in this world could stop her or change her mind. Just as Lisa had given up on her studies abroad and returned home in order to save Serenity all those years ago and how she persisted and did what she made up her mind to do even though her p

Especially when… they had met up with Terry in person today, and it was obvious to Jackson that Terry was trying very hard to conceal his thoughts and true feelings, but as soon as he heard what had happened to Lisa, all that shattered to a thousand pieces."But Terry and Monica Hart are…" Serenity argued hesitatingly."He probably has his own reason," said Jackson. "Sometimes, you can't have both power and love. You might be forced to choose one or the other.""You mean," said Serenity, taken aback, "he chose Monica so that he could regain his power over the White family?!""It's just a possibility," replied Jackson.Serenity fell silent. She wondered, could Terry really be such a man? What exactly would Terry and Lisa be talking about now, anyway?!Meanwhile, Jackson kept holding her hand tightly, as if trying to soothe away her nerves and uneasiness.Inside the ward, Lisa and Terry stared at each other. For some reason, although they were merely inches away from each other, L

With all her strength, she raised her hand and touched his cheek. It was a face that was once so familiar to her. Although she had touched it countless times before, it still felt strange. Despite the initial excitement when she had heard the news, at the present moment, she could listen to him say these things calmly. Maybe… she had prepared herself mentally for this? “Very well, then. From now on… we… will have nothing to do with each other,” she muttered as her fingers fell on his lips as if it was a ritual. “Terry… I hope you’ve found what you wanted.” She didn’t want their breakup to be filled with tears. She didn’t want to end up making an enemy of someone she loved the most. Even if they broke up, even if she no longer loved him, she hoped that they could end things on good terms. After all, this was a man whom she felt true love for. The only thing that ended their relationship was the fact that she could not give him what he wanted. Unfortunately, his desire for th

What’s more… over the past few years, Wilson had never shown sexual interest in her. The only time they slept together was three months ago when Wilson was drunk, and that was after she had deliberately thrown herself into his arms. However, even as they did the deed, Wilson in his drunkenness kept calling out Clara’s name. After they were done, she continued lying on his bed the entire night, but not once did he lay his hands on her. Even if she were to force Wilson to sleep with her tonight, the time still wouldn’t add up. She cared more about her position as the mistress of the Birch family than her own child.“Then abort the child. Make sure you do it in secret before marrying into his family. Tell him that you need a few days to rest and recuperate. That should be enough to cover up the situation,” advised Sandra’s father after pondering in silence. Sandra thought about his proposal. There was no denying that the child had to be aborted, but… she could come up with a bett
