"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

Since it was someone she loved so deeply, it naturally hurt a lot when they broke up like this. However, more important than her own pain and anguish were her friends and family. She didn’t want them to worry about her. To be worthy of their care and concern, she had to keep her chin up and hold back her tears. “Serenity… I will try my best to move on from Terry… I think I’ll gradually forget about our relationship over time. I will neither hate nor complain about him…. After all, there is no grudge between him and me. Our breakup only happened because our values do not match,” said Lisa. All of a sudden, Serenity felt her tears welling up. Lisa was tougher than she thought. She definitely deserved a better man in the future!In the afternoon, Clara dropped by for a visit. She was caught by surprise upon learning of Lisa and Terry’s breakup. She also felt somewhat relieved when she saw how open-minded Lisa’s attitude was toward the breakup. At least Lisa was relatively cheer

Clara lowered her gaze and said, “If that’s the case, I don’t regret meeting Wilson in my life. Perhaps it’s my fate. I can only hope that I won’t meet him again in my next life.” Serenity pursed her lips. Even if Clara had accepted her fate, she still refused to do so. She had to find a way to ensure Clara survived! ————After leaving the hospital, Serenity made her way to the Valor Group. The front desk workers and security guards recognized her immediately. After all, the scene of Serenity standing at the door demanding to see the President was still fresh in their minds. Back then, they had thought the President would never give her the time of day. However, in the end, the President had gotten his secretary to escort her up to his office. Due to this, they were a little unsure whether to let her in or not. Just as Serenity was about to call Jackson to explain the situation, she noticed Connor walking nearby, so she called out to him, “Mr. Gunn!” Upon seeing Serenity

Compared to before, her standing now was a stark contrast to the past. Serenity walked over to Jackson’s desk and noticed the documents that lined his desk. One could almost imagine how busy he was at work. Suddenly, her attention fell on a folder that was labeled “Emerald Hall Garden”. She recalled that Emerald Hall Garden was a property that belonged to the Hall family. It was one of the most important projects in their recent foray into the real estate industry. It was said that tens of billions had been spent to purchase the land, and much development had been carried out on the land. The amount of publicity given to the project reflected the level of importance the Hall family had attached to it. But why was the file on Jack’s desk? Serenity was still pondering in silence when the door to the office swung open. She accidentally knocked over a folder from being startled, sending its contents spilling out on the floor. She was stunned the moment she noticed what these co
