Snow's resemblance to Serenity was her biggest advantage. Naturally, she had to make good use of it. Moreover, Lucas did not make any complaints. Instead, he would stare at her sometimes, appearing dazed. Snow was thrilled and thought she had made the right move. "I told you. You're just my assistant and nothing more. I don't need you to miss me," Lucas said, his tone cold. "If you find your job boring, you can quit. Let's consider the contract terminated. You can leave at any time."Startled, Snow quickly dropped her eyes and said timidly, "I-I know my responsibility. I'm not asking for anything. It's just… Mr. Gomez, you saved me at the lowest point of my life. I just want to repay you for your kindness. I know I can't help much with your current project, but I'd like to learn and improve better." Then, she gazed up at Lucas, her eyes twinkling with light.Snow had studied everything about Serenity and knew the kind of angle and expression that resembled Serenity the most. Sure e

Jacqueline wanted to make origami frogs with Fred this time, so she had brought along a lot of colorful paper she loved for this visit. While Serenity and Jackson were on the way to the Stanton Residence, Jacqueline was teaching Frederick how to make origami frogs in excitement. Micah watched Jacqueline and Frederick with boredom, unable to figure out what was so fun about the paper frogs. He thought folding a few was more than enough, but Jackie seemed to be planning to fold hundreds or even thousands of them. Fred's enthusiasm puzzled him the most. He enjoyed it so much and was happy folding paper frogs with Jackie.Was it that fun? Anyway, Micah did not think origami was as much fun as a jigsaw puzzle. The Stanton family watched the two children folding paper frogs with interest, especially Emma Stanton.Emma enjoyed watching her grandson playing with Jackson's daughter. Fred and Jackie looked so cute together, especially when they were so close to each other. Besides, Emma th

After the meal, Jacqueline and Frederick sat down at the piano in the living room and began to play. When Frederick was staying with Jacqueline, the Valor family used to listen to the two little ones playing the piano after dinner. It had been a while since Frederick and Jacqueline had played a piano duet together. As soon as they positioned their fingers on the piano keys, the flowing music of the piano came effortlessly.The two's synchronization and beautiful symphony were unbelievable. It was fast-paced, and the adults could see their four little hands dancing quickly on the piano keys as the music flowed quickly.The Stanton family knew Jacqueline played the piano well but never realized she was this good. Frederick always mentioned Jacqueline's superior piano skills whenever receiving praise for his piano playing, but the Stanton family thought Fred had been exaggerating. Frederick had been receiving praises for his skills from even the best pianists in Lanford, after all.

Weston was a businessman. There was no reason for him to hurt his ties with another influential family in Lanford."In that event, we'll fill the gap, especially if you do suffer any loss of business in the future because of this. I'm sure the Valor and Stanton Group can be great business partners. We have an upcoming real estate project, and if you're interested, you can join us," Jackson offered.Weston gave Jackson a thoughtful look. After a short silence, he broke into a smile. "Alright. I'll take care of the hospital matter. You should be able to get the answer you want soon."Serenity was so relieved to hear that. By the time she wanted to tell her daughter to get ready to go back, she realized she had fallen asleep leaning on Frederick. Serenity felt helpless, looking at her daughter who slept whenever and wherever she wanted. She tried to pick Jacqueline up, but she could not separate her from Frederick, especially when she hugged Frederick's arm so tightly.Serenity want

Micah listened but barely understood it. "Mom, what about you and Dad?"Serenity turned her gaze to Jackson beside her, her eyes sparkling with endless love. "I like him a lot, and I'll like him forever."Jackson stared at Serenity, his heart pounding at the way she looked at him. If his son was not around, he would not have resisted his urge to pull her into a tight embrace and kiss her to express his most sincere joy.Jackson turned to his son, who was still in a daze. "Well, you'll meet someone you like eventually.""But I think I've already met someone like that now. I'll always like Mommy," Micah expressed.Noticing how Jackson became a little upset over Micah's answer, Serenity quickly interrupted, "That's not the same. We're talking about liking someone differently."Micah had an annoyed look on his face. He could not understand the difference between liking Mom and someone else. Maybe he should talk about it again some other time.Back at the hotel, Serenity put her son

Meanwhile, in the Stanton Residence. Weston came to his son's room and saw Frederick watch Jacqueline intently as she slept. "Do you like Jacqueline that much?" Weston said, something flashing in his eyes.Frederick did not answer and continued staring at the girl next to him. There was no need to answer this question."You should know. She's the daughter of Jackson Valor. There will be many people who'll like her," Weston continued. Jacqueline would grow up to be very popular, especially when she had wealth, good looks, and a pleasant personality. Men would be flocking after her.For a split second, worry crossed Frederick's face. He glanced up and told his father, "Even if that happens, I'll make Jackie only like me!""Are you sure you're capable of that?" Weston's lips quirked in a half-smile. "You're both still young. The people she meets at this age will be limited, not to mention her playmates. Among the people she has met, she likes you because you're the best at piano a

“Mhm,” the little one answered softly. After Weston left the room, Fred looked at the person sleeping beside him and murmured, “Jackie, don’t hate me, okay? Don’t let anyone else take my place. I promise I’ll be a better person day by day.” Fred sounded like he was taking an oath. -Both couples dined together in the hotel's restaurant. Clara looked at Micah, who was eating obediently, and asked, “Where’s Jackie? Didn't she come to Lanford?” “She’s at the Stantons. We’ll pick her up at their residence later,” Serenity said. Then, she told Clara about what they had mentioned to Weston yesterday, about installing surveillance cameras and investigating Summer’s actual condition.“Thank you, Serenity,” Clara said gratefully.“No problem.” Halfway through the meal, Clara had to use the restroom, so Serenity accompanied her to ensure her safety. Suddenly, Jackson asked Wilson, “Have your feelings for Clara totally faded?” “Why?” “Don’t you think it’s a shame?” Jackson sm

Wilson looked at Jackson without any expression.“The pain might be overwhelming for you by then,” Jackson said. “Then, I will go to the hypnotist again and again until I can no longer remember my feelings.”Jackson kept quiet. Only Wilson would know what was best for himself. -Clara felt sleepy again after finishing her meal, so she returned to her room first. Nowadays, she was always sleepy and would take a nap after lunch. While she was asleep, she felt a pressure on her forehead. She tried hard to get rid of the discomfort but to no avail. “Ahh!” Clara jolted awake. She saw Wilson once she opened her eyes, and his hand was on her forehead. There was a napkin in his hand, and Clara realized that he was wiping her sweat.“Thanks,” Clara said.Only then did she notice that she had broken out in a cold sweat. “Are you alright? You had another nightmare?” Wilson asked. “No.” Clara didn’t want to tell him that his hand had made her uncomfortable. “I want to change
