Chapter 753
Serenity's heart trembled for a moment. Lucas' eyes were cold and indifferent. It was as if he was looking at an unimportant stranger.An inexplicable sense of disappointment rose from the bottom of her heart. It spread so quickly, surprising her.What was this feeling? Was she regretting how the boy she had saved as a child treated her like a stranger?'But… Isn't this my own choice?' Serenity might have been the little girl who had saved Lucas, but… She had made her choice. Her heart had decided on Jack!Serenity wanted to reassure Jack, the man she loved, that Lucas did not mean anything to her. She did not want Jack to grow uneasy. The last thing she wanted to see was the vulnerable look on his face. The lost memories did not matter anymore. She no longer had the intention to restore them. She just wanted things to stay the same!Serenity smiled bitterly and kept her head down.Standing beside Lucas, Lynette gave Serenity a hostile look. Then, she glanced at Lucas with some c

Serenity chuckled suddenly. "Hey, Lynette. Did you really save Lucas when you were a kid?"Lynette shot Serenity a glare. "Would Lucas be so nice to me if I didn't save him when I was a kid?""But I remember you didn't like to play around the hill when you were a kid. Instead, I often went there to play." Serenity said.Lynette's face paled. "Y-You… What do you mean? What does saving Lucas have anything to do with me liking to play there?! Anyway, I went there occasionally and happened to save Lucas that time." Lynette's gaze was evasive."A coincidence?" Serenity studied Lynette's strange expression. She was sure that Lynette was hiding something. It was not Lynette who had saved Lucas."Serenity, that's enough!" Lynette snapped in anger, deliberately using her anger to cover her lie. "What happens between Lucas and me has nothing to do with you! Mind your own business!" With that, Lynette stormed off in a rage.Serenity lowered her gaze, looking at her hands. If her dream was t

Serenity had prepared some offerings for Granny ahead of time. She did not want to visit Granny's grave with the Walker family. Instead, she wanted to spend some time alone with Granny.The car arrived at the bottom of the hill. Serenity did not want Clint to go up with her. "I'll go up by myself. I want to be alone with Granny. Wait here for me."Clint had a troubled look on his face. "But Mr. Valor said…""I'll talk to Jack later. You'll be fine," Serenity assured. "Besides, it's daytime. We're at the village's ancestral graves. There won't be any danger here," Serenity said, carrying the offerings she had brought for the visit.Clint could not say anything more. He could only wait for Serenity at the bottom of the hill. Serenity went up the hill. The phone rang suddenly just as she was reaching Granny's grave. It was Jackson who was calling."I've finished my morning meeting. I'm coming over now," Jackson said."Don't be in such a hurry. I'm not done yet," Serenity said."W

"Get the car. We're leaving now," Jackson said quietly."Got it," Connor responded, giving Jackson a sidelong glance. Seeing the look on Mr. Valor's face, he seemed to be suppressing some dark feelings.Certain things should not be questioned, or everything would change abruptly!'It's probably because of Serenity,' Connor thought to himself. Mr. Valor cared for Serenity more than anyone could imagine, even Mr. Valor himself.However, Connor had doubts. He could not understand why Mr. Valor was extremely conscious of Lucas' movements. It was as if he feared something going on between Serenity and Lucas. What was Mr. Valor so afraid of?! Connor thought and immediately laughed at his thought. Would Mr. Valor fear anything? He must be overthinking.…Serenity sat in front of Granny's grave. She told Granny about her current life, her relationship with Jackson, and her hopes for the future…It was quiet at the grave. Unlike the crowded Walker Residence, there were not any people a

In the dream, the little boy had accidentally slid on the edge of that cliff. The little girl had instinctively grabbed the little boy with all her strength. As a result, the two children had slid down together.The little girl had kept her grip on the boy's hand, never letting go and finally managing to pull the little boy up with her.Serenity walked to the edge, looking cautiously down at the cliffs below.The cliff here was relatively steep. It was quite dangerous for an adult to look down the cliff. Anyone could fall if careless, breaking a few bones even if not life-threatening.Serenity pondered about it, taking a few steps back, standing slightly further from the edge.It turned out that Lucas had not mistaken her for someone else. He had recognized Serenity, but she had not remembered him. When she finally remembered meeting the young Lucas, Lucas had mistaken the wrong person. However, this would stay a secret forever, buried in her heart.There was a sudden click. It s

The cliff did not seem as scary as it did when he was a child. However, everything that happened here was imprinted deeply in his memory. He always recalled the memories over and over again.Lucas looked down the cliff quietly, his eyes hooded, his face colored by memories and silence.Serenity felt uncomfortable seeing Lucas like this.Serenity and Lucas had been through life and death together and gotten out safely. The two little children were like two comrades in arms, relying on each other. Now, they were strangers, and between them, a kind of barrier they could never overcome."Do you know what it's like to miss someone badly?" Lucas's cold voice rang out in the silent forest.Serenity was slightly taken aback by his question.Lucas did not seem to be expecting an answer. He continued muttering to himself, "When you miss someone so badly, you think of her all the time. She's always in my mind."A small smile tugged at Lucas' lips. The smile spreading across his face seemed

Things were finally going as what Serenity wanted. Lucas was finally convinced that Serenity was not the little girl he had been looking for, but for some reason, Serenity still felt a sting in her heart. It felt uncomfortable, maybe because the young Lucas was the first childhood friend who shared the same experience with her.Serenity had lived in this town for years, but she always felt a little disconnected from the town's children. In her dream, the little girl seemed close to the little boy."Okay. I won't come here anymore," Serenity promised. As she took a step back, she accidentally stepped on a branch and lost her balance, and she fell backward."Ah!" Serenity screamed, falling toward the cliff. She was about to fall, so she instinctively tried to grab onto something. Anything!Thud! The next moment, a hand grabbed hers. Serenity's body was close to the cliff. Luckily for her, Lucas dropped to the ground and caught her in time, or she would have rolled down the hill.L

"I must be very heavy," the little boy said, a little embarrassed."Yeah, quite," the little girl answered bluntly. Every step she took was so difficult."Sorry… You have to carry me… If you get hurt, I'll definitely carry you too!" The little boy sounded a little nervous, afraid the little girl would dislike him for being useless."How long can you carry me? You might not be able to carry me for long!" The little girl did not think much of the boy's strength. Although he was bigger in size, she had been the one protecting him the whole time.The little boy blurted out, "I can carry you for the rest of my life!"At that time, the little boy and little girl did not understand what a lifetime really meant. The fragmented memories constantly regrouped, transforming into distinct memories.Serenity felt dizzy. She tried to open her eyes, but her eyelids were very heavy. She seemed to be moving slightly, like… Was someone carrying her on their back? Serenity thought, 'Who is it? Who's
