Only by staying here could he stand tall in the future and not be looked down on.He no longer wanted to hear people whisper behind his back that he's unworthy of being friends with Jacqueline.Jacqueline’s expression turned from gloom to joy when Fred expressed his desire to be her close friend.Excitedly, she approached him and said, "Then... let's be good friends forever. You have to visit me often, and I'll come see you too!""I will!" he agreed."And this doll..." she pointed at the doll he was holding, recognizing it as the one she had given him. "Treat it as if it were me and let it sleep with you every night.""I will," he replied."Also, you have to eat all the chocolates I gave you earlier. They're delicious!" she added, although she’s disappointed she couldn't share them with him."I will."With his third agreement, Jacqueline was finally satisfied, her gloomy expression giving way to a happier one.Suddenly, Jacqueline hugged Fred tightly and planted a huge kiss o

Micah initially wanted to explain that they had made ample preparation for their little trip, but Jacqueline discreetly tugged at his sleeve, signaling him to stay quiet.Speaking up would only lead to more lecturing from their mother, with countless reasons that they couldn't argue against.Micah obediently kept his mouth shut.After Serenity finished her lecture, she asked, "Do you both understand your mistake now?"Both children quickly nodded."Will you do it again in the future?"They shook their heads in unison.Serenity felt relieved. At least her children had repented.Jackson glanced at his son and said, "Micah, since you enjoy hacking into security systems so much, when we get home, hack into our home security system and see if you can find any loopholes. If you can't, you're not allowed to use the computer for a month."Micah looked as if he had been struck by lightning.He had been hacking into the home security system since he was young, and any vulnerabilities h

Jacqueline finally brightened up a bit when she heard that.Jackson, who was standing nearby, chimed in, "Do you really like Fred that much? Daddy can find you other friends who play the piano well, maybe even better than Fred. You can play the piano together with your new friends every day. That way, you won't miss Fred so much.""But they're not Fred. Even if you find someone else to play the piano with me, I'll still miss Fred," Jacqueline replied."But you like Fred because he plays the piano well, right?" Jackson asked.Jacqueline blinked her eyes a few times and tilted her head, pondering for a moment before saying, "I don't know. I just like Fred, and he likes me too. He misses me too."Jackson smiled and didn't push the issue. Although his daughter said she liked Fred, maybe she herself didn't even know in what way she liked him yet.But, at least the two children were now separated. With time, he would definitely be able to find other well-behaved and understanding child
Chapter 2195
"Terry is a capable man, so I'm sure he'll find out soon," Serenity said. She then looked towards Clara's abdomen and said, "Looking after the convenience store must be tough for a pregnant woman like you. I can get someone to look after the convenience store for you until you've given birth and recuperated."Clara replied with a smile, "That won't be necessary. I'm doing just fine, and the morning sickness has stopped too. The baby is behaving and isn't causing me too much trouble. My mother is also helping me out. If I really need help, I won't hesitate to ask. Don't you worry about me."Thus, Serenity could only say. "If you have any problems, remember to reach out to me.""I will," Clara replied.After saying goodbye to Clara, Serenity visited Lisa. She wanted to ask Lisa if there was any progress in the investigation of the toxin injection incident. However, upon reaching the mansion where Lisa and Terry resided, she was taken aback."What is he doing here?" Serenity asked in

"Good boy," Lisa replied with a smile. As expected, "Aunt Lisa" sounded much more pleasant to the ears.Still curious, Serenity pressed on, "Why do you want to be with Riley? I remember you already said you wanted to be with Riley when Aunt Lisa was still pregnant with her."The boy shook his head, saying, "I can't tell you!"He couldn't reveal the reason? Serenity's suspicion grew. In other words, there was a reason, but it’s a secret.Regardless, there's no way a 7 or 8-year-old boy would fall in love with a baby at first sight!"Do you have superpowers?" Serenity asked again.The boy blinked, clearly confused."I mean, how did you know that Aunt Lisa was carrying a baby girl the very first time you saw her? And why was your blood able to save Aunt Lisa and wake her up?" Serenity questioned."That's right. How did you know?" Lisa also looked at the boy curiously.The last time the boy came, Lisa forgot to ask him these questions because she was so surprised."I just feel li

"By the way, may I know your name?" Serenity inquired."Morgan Wood," the boy replied honestly.After burping Riley, he reluctantly handed her back to the nanny. Then, he stood up and said, "I have to go. Goodbye, aunties.""You're going back alone? Why don't I give you a ride home?" Serenity offered."Don't worry, someone will pick him up. His family really treasures him!" Lisa assured Serenity. Last time, she had intended to give the boy a ride home too, but when she walked out, she saw a line of cars parked outside, all there to... pick up Master Morgan!Most likely, there was already a row of cars parked outside the house right now.After Morgan left, Serenity asked Lisa, "By the way, any leads on the search for the culprit who injected toxin into you?""Terry said they have some leads, but they need to verify them first," Lisa replied."Where is Terry, by the way? Is he not home today?" Serenity suddenly remembered that she had been here for quite a while and hadn't seen T

Terry slowly opened his eyes and stood up to face his mother. She was dressed in luxurious attire, always seeking a life of extravagance, even when abroad. Truth be told, as long as his mother left Lisa alone, he would do his best to provide her with everything she wanted. She could have a luxurious lifestyle, she could have a sugar baby, she could go on shopping sprees. He wouldn't care.However, despite his efforts to satisfy her, his mother constantly tested his patience.Terry's cold, icy gaze stopped the sarcastic words Glynnis had yet to say."Why...Why are you looking at me like that?" Glynnis felt a sudden unease creeping in.Could he have come because he had found out? No, there's no way. She had been very careful, and there was no way anyone could trace it back to her."I thought that, by sending you here, we could both get on with our lives and I could let you grow old in peace, but it seems I was too naive," Terry calmly stated, devoid of any emotions."You really

Glynnis looked at her son mockingly. "If I'm imprisoned, it won't just disgrace me alone, it'll tarnish the reputation of the entire White family. The White Maple Group's stock prices will plummet, causing significant losses for the shareholders. Can you still hold onto your position as CEO if that happens?"Glynnis had already devised a plan to save herself."You have no choice but to let this go. I will live my life here, and you'll go back to the White family and live yours!" she declared.Terry sighed. "Yes, you can live here, but you won’t be allowed to leave this place anymore."Glynnis was taken aback. "What do you mean by that? Do you want to imprison your own mother?!""You can use that term if you wish. From now on, you will spend the rest of your life in this mansion. Your basic needs will be taken care of, but the luxurious lifestyle you desire will be gone," Terry explained.Glynnis's anger flared up. "Who gave you the right? I won’t allow it! I will go out whenever
