Chapter 1521
Although she had lost all her memories these past five years, she still retained all her skills and knowledge, so although she had no idea that she used to be a lawyer, she chose that path once again and took a bar exam, after which she passed on her first try."You're right, it's been… a while."Mr. Lambert suddenly seemed to realize something, and his expression changed. Could it be that the person Gwen Scott was trying to sue was… Ms. Lewis the lawyer? If that was the case, he feared that his reputation as a lawyer might be in danger, because Ms. Lewis's mentor was one of the most preeminent and respected lawyers in the legal profession circle!Not only that, Ms. Lewis's mentor was famous for having one of the longest winning streaks in lawsuits and was practically undefeatable in court–and Ms. Lewis was his favorite disciple! In fact, that great lawyer had even publicly announced that she would be his last disciple!Thinking of this, Mr. Lambert started to get anxious, and he b

This face… It looked almost identical to the face of that woman on his marriage certificate.And what did the girl just call him? Daddy?!For a moment, the father and daughter stared at each other silently. But Jackson was not the only one who was floored. Connor, who was standing beside him, stared blankly at the girl who was hugging his boss tightly. Good gracious! She looked… exactly like a mini-sized Serenity Lewis! And yet, the longer he looked at her, the more he could make out a likeness of Mr. Valor in her face.Could it be that this girl was…Just then, Jacqueline knitted her delicate little eyebrows, turned to Serenity, and grumbled, "Didn't you tell me Daddy would like me very much, Mommy? Why isn't he picking me up? Didn't you say Daddy loved you so much he cried for you till snot came out of his nose?"At that moment, the girl was seriously doubting if what her mommy said was true.The crowd was flabbergasted when they heard what Jacqueline had said, but Serenity m

But before her hand had barely even touched him, he had warned her in a cold voice, "I don't like anyone touching me. If you have the gall to do it, you'll find that you won't be able to use the hand that you touched me with anymore the next day."He spoke very calmly and nonchalantly, but there was an unmistakable ruthlessness in those words that almost made her blood curdle. He did not even bother looking at her as his eyes were concentrating on the documents in his hands. It was as if she was not worthy of even a glance.Naturally, she dared not risk her hand to touch him anymore. After all, she did not doubt that a man like Jackson Valor would certainly do as he said.Such a man was just too haughty and cold. It seemed that no one could ever possibly get close to him. Yet now, not only was someone able to get near him, but she was even… boldly putting her hand on his face just like that!Gwen was filled with jealousy and utter shock, yet at the same time, she was viciously anti

Was that… his voice?! Did he really say those things to this woman before?The next moment, tears streamed down his face without him knowing it.Serenity was startled. She never thought that he would cry when they met again. In haste, she reached out and wiped away his tears, telling him, "Don't cry, Jack! Don't cry!"But the more she tried wiping his tears away with her fingertips, the more his tears flowed out of his eyes. The people around them had been shocked before, but now, this scene that was unfolding before them hit them like a lightning bolt. Did Mr. Valor just… cry?! Did he really just shed his tears?! Good Lord! No one in Solaria had ever seen this man cry before, yet they had just… They had just witnessed it with their own eyes! They feared that even if they told anyone about what they had seen today, people would just think that they were blatantly lying!Even Jackson himself never thought that he would be crying, much less that his tears would flow so uncontroll

Connor was all choked up as he spoke, but he continued, "I'm Uncle Connor, your daddy's subordinate. Tell me, what is your name?""My name is Jackie Lewis," the girl replied in her angelic voice, "but Mommy says I'll soon change my name to Jacqueline Valor."Jacqueline Valor? Jackie… Jack… Did her name have something to do with Mr. Valor? Was this child named after him?The only unfortunate thing was that although Serenity was back, Mr. Valor… had completely forgotten all his memories about her. In fact, they had even told him that Serenity's death was…Thinking of this, Connor's heart felt heavy. Would Mr. Valor… remember everything after he saw Serenity? Would all his suffering finally be rewarded?! Connor had seen Serenity and Jackson's relationship bloom right from the very beginning. He knew more than anyone else what they had been through, and it was precisely because he knew this that he understood how hard it was for Mr. Valor and Serenity to be together.Meanwhile, Gwen w

"You just what?" Jackson asked her sarcastically. "Don't tell me that you decided to come back because you love me."Serenity stared at the man in front of her intently. His tears hurt her. She just could not understand why he would talk to her this way. His behavior was just so puzzlingly contradictory. But still… "Yes, Jack, I've come back to you because I love you."His pupils constricted in an instant. His heart drummed violently against his chest. It felt as if the words that just came out of her mouth meant the world to him. So much that he found it hard to even breathe!How could this woman have such a dramatic effect on him?!After a long pause, he finally asked her with some effort, "Did you think that I'd believe someone who left me for five years?""Then what should I do to make you believe me?" she asked.He pursed his lips, unable to think of what to say for a moment. As if by instinct, his grip around her wrists suddenly tightened."Ouch!" Serenity cried with a f

A while later, even with his arms wrapped around her shoulders, he did not push her away.Did that mean… he did not hate her anymore?! Only then did Serenity’s heart calm down. It had been five years since she had last seen the man standing before her. Even so, his appearance hadn’t changed much. It was as if time had left no marks on his body. If anything, he appeared much more mature. Of course, this air of maturity only lasted to the point where he started shedding tears. When he cried, he felt… so childlike. Especially at this moment, when his peach blossom eyes were still moist with tears. Although he was staring at her, for some reason, she could sense a hint of seduction behind his gaze. It might sound contradictory, but it was the oddity of the scenario that attracted her gaze even more! Did this man know how attractive he was at the moment? Serenity couldn’t stop herself from pushing her face up to him. “Jack, I’ve missed you so much… I’ve been thinking of you e

Serenity couldn’t help but blush when she thought of her bold moves in the car earlier.She never expected to be able to pull off such a move… but after meeting Jack, everything seemed to develop like clockwork!However… she had forgotten, there was a group of people waiting outside the vehicle!And so, when she emerged to bring her daughter into the car, the crowd gave her questionable looks, as if they had guessed what she was doing in the car!Her daughter was much more direct when she asked her, “Mommy, what were you doing with Daddy in the car? Were you telling him a story?” Serenity almost choked on her spit when she heard that. Whenever the little girl felt sad, Mommy would tell her a story as a distraction. And so, this became a shared habit between them.The girl probably mistook Jackson’s crying for his sadness, so Mommy was trying to cheer him up by telling a story. “Yeah… Mommy was telling Daddy a story,” replied Serenity awkwardly. When she said that, the skepti
