Chapter 726
She took a quick shower hastily and dressed up before rushing to the hospital.She had no idea that from the moment she stepped out of Valor Residence, someone was already reporting her moves to Jackson."Miss Lewis has gone out, Mr. Valor."It was Connor Gunn, reporting to Jackson in the CEO's office.Jackson looked down. His dark and long eyelashes trembled ever so slightly as he said, "Okay. I got it."After that came nothing but silence. Yet, for some reason, Connor began to shudder, because Jackson's eerie silence was making him feel… terrified.Serenity arrived at the hospital and got her queue number. Shortly afterward, she was already able to meet the psychiatrist.Dr. Landale was a woman in her forties. She was slightly chubby, and her gentle smiling eyes could put anyone at ease, making it easy for them to put their guard down.Perhaps someone like this is perfect as a psychiatrist.Serenity took a seat and proceeded to describe her condition in detail. She also me

When would Serenity come out?She had clearly promised never to betray him, so why did she still have to see a psychiatrist?Did she still want to retrieve the memories related to Lucas?Jackson quietly watched. Finally, a figure in a white dress appeared in his field of vision.It was Serenity!Even though people were walking around, he could still recognize her at a glance.Then, he saw her take out her phone as if to make a call.After a moment, his phone rang. He took out his phone and looked at the caller ID—"Sis."Even though he no longer used that number, the name on his phone hadn't been changed.Perhaps it was a kind of nostalgia. This woman had once smiled and said to him, "Will you be my little brother?"She had also said, "From now on, I'll cherish you, and you'll cherish me."Sis... Sis...At that time, he didn't know that this woman would make him love so deeply.The phone continued to ring, and Jackson pressed the answer button. He listened to her clear vo

As Serenity pushed open the door to the CEO's office, she saw a tall figure standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the skyline of towering buildings in the city.Suddenly, Serenity felt that the scene before her was like a poster. He was simply standing there as if the entire city was under his control.In reality, he indeed had the capability to dominate the city.This version of him was like a completely different person from the vulnerable and lonely one she had seen early in the morning."Jack," she called out.Jackson turned his head and gave her a faint smile."You're here.""Yeah, I brought lunch for you. Have some and see if you like it," she said as she walked confidently toward the coffee table, placing the lunch boxes and fruits on it.He approached the coffee table as well and then opened the lunch box, sitting on the sofa.Serenity felt like she was back to the times when she used to have lunch with him in the office every afternoon."Does it taste

Some delicate actions might have been effortless for her in the past, but now, they seemed strenuous. Yet, here she was, putting in the effort to peel an apple for him.So, there was a place in her heart for him. She had said it—she loved only him!Jackson kept repeating this in his heart. His captivating eyes watched her hands' movements, almost as if wanting to confirm to himself through this that she cared deeply for him.When she finally finished peeling an apple, Serenity let out a sigh of relief and handed the apple to Jackson. "There you go."He took the apple, took a light bite, and the sweet taste soon spread in his mouth."Is it sweet?" she asked."Very sweet," he replied."Then I'll have one too," she said, picking up another apple, ready to peel it.However, in the next moment, he reached out with his long arm and pulled her into his embrace. "Why go through the trouble? Don't exert yourself to peel another apple.""Huh?" She was taken aback. Then, she watche

"Yeah. Just a cake will do. But this year, my birthday happens to be one day after my grandmother's seventh day of passing. I don't want to celebrate much. I just want to eat a cake with you and the others, including Lisa," Serenity said.Although this was her first birthday with him, her grandmother had recently passed away. So, she was still in mourning. She didn't want a lively birthday celebration. She only wanted to spend it quietly with him and her friends."Alright," Jackson agreed. "I'll prepare a birthday cake for you.""Thank you," she smiled faintly, then checked the time. It was almost the end of lunchtime, and Jackson would need to return to work. "I'll head back then and not disturb your work."As she spoke, she picked up her bag and stood up. But before she could take two steps, a pair of arms wrapped around her from behind, pulling her into his embrace. He buried his face in the crook of her neck, inhaling her fragrance. "Tomorrow... don't go to the hospital. Let

A few days ago, Yanny had seen the birthday gift she had prepared for Serenity and curiously asked about it. So, Clara told her son that on the twenty-second of this month, it would be Serenity's birthday and that she would give Serenity the gift as a surprise. Little did she expect that her son would also remember Serenity's birthday.Considering Serenity's kindness to Yanny, how could he not care about her? Children were always innocent and straightforward. Whoever treated them well would naturally become their close ones."I want to pick a gift for Aunt Serene myself," Yanny said earnestly.Clara hesitated upon hearing this. Serenity had helped Yanny so much, and without Serenity's assistance, Yanny wouldn't have been able to use such a good hearing aid so quickly. It was only right for her son to choose a gift for Sere on his own. However, malls were crowded, and selecting a gift would inevitably take up quite a bit of time outside. The longer they stayed outside, the gr

It's... Wilson Birch!He was in a suit and his hair was meticulously-combed, just as she remembered. The sight of him made her heart ache.Time had been kind to him as he remained handsome.She, however, was wounded all over and was no longer the same person she was in the past.Seemingly sensing her gaze, Wilson turned in her direction.Clara hastily grabbed her son and ran towards the emergency exit without thinking.The staff at the counter shouted, "What's wrong, ma'am?" Wilson, who was on the escalator, only caught a glimpse of someone running away.But that fleeting moment was enough to cause his expression to change drastically. The group of people following behind him then saw the usually calm and composed Wilson Birch frantically racing down the escalator towards the emergency exit.Wilson's two bodyguards naturally followed behind him.The rest of the group looked at each other in confusion, unable to comprehend the situation.Wilson ran frantically, focusing only

"Mommy?" Yanny only asked what’s wrong after they had climbed into a cab. He had no idea why Mommy would suddenly carry him away while they were shopping for a birthday present for Aunt Serene, but he had always been a well-behaved child and knew Mommy must have her reasons, so he stayed quiet this whole time."Just now, Mommy saw someone she didn't want to see, so we left in a hurry. We'll come back to buy a present for Auntie Serene some other time, okay?" said Clara.The little boy nodded before asking in a soft voice, "Is the person a bad guy?"Clara's nose suddenly got stuffy. When Yanny was younger, he used to ask his where Daddy was.She had always told him that Daddy was in heaven.She did not know when Yanny would truly comprehend what being in heaven meant.However, she did know that she could not tell him his father was only dozens of meters away from them a moment ago. She also could not tell him that he had already met his father, but his existence was never what h
