Chapter 758
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
Chapter 761
Lucas had been searching for her, but she had forgotten him.Serenity looked at Lucas in a daze. Seeing how he was carrying her on his back, her eyes turned a little moist.The young Lucas had said that if she was hurt, he would carry her on his back too, but… There was no forever between them. He was not the one she loved!"Lucas. I won't come to this forest hill again. Whatever happened in the past is just the past. You shouldn't be so obsessed with what happened when you were young," Serenity said.Serenity did not want to see Lucas stuck in the past. Besides, Lynette was deceiving him. Unfortunately, Serenity was in no position to explain it clearly.Lucas sneered, "Serenity, who are you to be telling me this?"Serenity choked at his question. Lucas added, "I heard you don't get along with Lynette. She's the one who saved my life. Does that bother you?"Serenity knew he had misunderstood her. "I just don't want you to be deceived," she said."Deceived? Do you think your c

Lucas had not expected Serenity to be here. He had not expected the shocking incident either.Lucas's mind had almost gone blank when he saw Serenity fall off the cliff. He had instinctively rushed forward and grabbed her wrist, forgetting that he might fall with her if he was not careful.Lucas panicked even more when Serenity could not reach him because of her headache. He was afraid he would not be able to hold her long. Afraid she would end up falling. Afraid because she was struggling with her headache.He was scared to death!Lucas had never experienced such fear in a long time! The moment he managed to pull her up, she was already unconscious. His back was covered in cold sweat. His hands were shaking, and eventually, he was trembling in fear.When he came back to his senses, he was holding her in his arms tightly. It was as if she was someone really important. He was reluctant to let go!Why? Why had things turned out like this?! He already knew she was not the little gir

'Serenity, please be okay! Don't get hurt!' Jackson thought. He would find her no matter what."What about the nearby surveillance? Did you find anything?" Jackson asked."We're still working on it. We should have results soon," Connor answered hastily.Fortunately, the roads near the hills were monitored by surveillance cameras. If Ms. Lewis had left the area, she would have been caught on camera.Connor soon received the surveillance feedback during this period. Only 13 cars had driven in and out, and a few pedestrians around the area.This area was a remote part of the town. Not many people would have crossed here.They had investigated the car owners of these 13 cars. They were all innocent town residents, having no criminal records or ties to Ms. Lewis.Ms. Lewis was not among the pedestrians who had passed by the road.In other words, there was a good chance that Ms. Lewis was still in these hills. However, all the hills here were connected. It was going to be a little tr

Although Jackson knew about the hill, it was the first time he had ever set foot here.As he followed the search party and walked through the forest, the painting he had seen in Lucas' studio flashed before his eyes.In the painting, the little girl had carried the little boy on her back, walking through the dense forest. The little girl seemed to be bending forward. The little boy seemed to be too heavy, crushing her. Even so, the little girl kept on walking. Every step she took became harder. When Jackson saw the painting for the first time, he felt nothing. However, he panicked after putting Serenity and Lucas into the picture.What was he panicking about? Was it fear? Was it because the bond between Serenity and Lucas would not break despite his underhanded tactics? Or was it something else? Jackson feared Lucas would always be in her mind. Serenity had forgotten him for now, but she might remember everything one day…Maybe he was worried about her love for him? Did she lov
Chapter 765
Right. She had been up on the hill for a long time. Jackson must have been worried and came to look for her. Serenity's first instinct was to run to Jackson's side. Then, she realized Lucas was still carrying her on his back. She hurriedly told Lucas, "H-Hey, put me down.""Looking for Jackson?" Lucas's cold voice rang."Yeah." Serenity gave an affirmative answer."Serenity. Once I put you down, anything that happens to you will be none of my business. From now on, you're just a stranger to me. Don't call me Luke again. It's not for you to say." What Lucas said sounded like a warning and farewell.Serenity felt a little sore on her nose. A strange feeling rose, weighing on her heart. Was it because… Because she had lied to him? Or was it due to losing a friend? Because the friend she had made as a child would become nothing more than a stranger? "I understand, Mr. Gomez," Serenity said softly.Both of them spoke so softly that only they could hear each other. After that, Lucas
