Clara was bewildered.He's kissing her?Why was he kissing her? Shouldn't he hate her? Then why was he kissing her so passionately?She lost track of time until the kiss finally ended, and he let out a sigh.Wilson Birch did not expect the kiss would make him feel so... satisfied!He had not felt that kind of satisfaction for a long time!Why? Why must it be her? He gazed at the woman in front of him with complicated emotions and gently touched her slightly reddened lips, which he had just kissed.She had lost some of her youthfulness after four years, becoming more graceful.

Chapter 794
In the VIP ward of a hospital, Master Zack leaned back on the bed and stared at his grandson who sat a few feet away. "I heard you ended things with that girl," he remarked.Jackson remained composed, not surprised that Master Zack knew about it.Of course the old man had spies in the Valor Residence. Even though he practically lived in the hospital now, he probably knew everything that was happening in the Valor Residence."That's right," Jackson said nonchalantly."I told you from the start that she wasn't right for you." Master Zack looked sharply at his grandson with his cloudy eyes. "Thank god you're not like your father. At least you haven't lost your mind over that girl or you would have ended up just like your father!"Jackson suddenly sneered. He raised his eyes to meet Master Zack's gaze. "You arranged for that psychiatrist to appear that day, didn't you?"Surprise showed briefly on Master Zack's face, but he quickly admitted, "That's right. I paid off the psychiatrist
Chapter 795
Was it because he did not like the old man trying to manipulate his life? Was it because his breakup with Serenity was nothing more than a result of the old man's manipulation?No, ending the relationship was his decision.Even if the old master had not interfered, he would still probably break up with Serenity sooner or later.As long as Lucas Gomez held a place in her heart, he would be terrified of losing her and terrified of her betrayal.Instead of living in fear, he would rather end the relationship early.There were plenty of other women out there. Their relationship did not even last a year. It meant nothing to him!He kept telling himself that, but he could not make the pain in his chest go away.The mere thought of her caused him pain."Oh, that's Ms. Lewis," Connor said from the front seat.Jackson's body jerked. He instinctively looked out of the window.He saw a slender figure on the side of the road ahead.She wore a gray t-shirt and jeans. Her long hair was ti

The car drove past her without stopping.But that's to be expected, right? They had already ended their relationship. They should not get involved with each other anymore.Serenity reminded herself. "What's wrong, Serenity? What are you looking at?" she heard Peter ask.Serenity shifted her gaze back to Peter. "Nothing. I have to go. Let’s keep in touch!" "Wait!" Peter said, "I can give you a ride. My car is nearby." "No, it's fine. I can just take the bus."Peter hesitated before pulling out a business card from his pocket and handing it to Serenity, "This is my business card. It has my contact number and work address. If you need anything, feel free to reach out to me!"The man in front of Serenity was no longer the same as the one in the sanitation center. Instead of a uniform, he now wore a suit and had changed his hairstyle. The business card he handed her stated that he was the manager of a car dealership.It appeared that he had started doing business. However, hi

Connor quietly observed his boss, who remained silent in the car while projecting an icy aura that caused the temperature inside the vehicle to drop several degrees.The car pulled up to the Valor Group headquarters and Jackson got out. Suddenly, a person emerged from nowhere and attempted to dash towards Jackson, but the security guards at the entrance quickly restrained him.The man appeared to be in his thirties. He was wearing regular clothes. After being restrained, he yelled at Jackson, "You're the one who blacklisted Jenny Hall, right? Who gave you the right? What did she do to you? Wasn't her sister your fiancée?" The man seemed eager to seek justice for his goddess. He argued with Jackson.Connor broke out in a cold sweat. Mr. Valor blacklisted Jenny Hall because of Serenity Lewis, and any topic involving Serenity Lewis was considered taboo ever since Mr. Valor broke up with her.And now, someone was foolishly bringing up the subject in front of him. "Mr. Valor, we s

But to his surprise, Mr. Valor actually stopped.Connor was stunned. It... worked?Jackson lowered his gaze and stared at his blood-stained hands... He remembered when she had described his hands as beautiful and clean.She had no idea how much blood was on his hands. "That's right, I'll get my hands dirty..." Jackson said softly. "Mr. Valor, your hands..." Connor quickly offered him a handkerchief.Jackson used the handkerchief to wipe the blood off his hands. He seemed to have lost interest in the man on the floor. He walked past him and entered the building.Connor quickly followed him inside after giving a few orders to the security guards.Those who witnessed the scene were shocked.Who would've guessed that the usually cold and elegant Jackson Valor would be so scary when he got mad? He was like... the Grim Reaper.He looked like he could kill a million people and not feel a thing.Human lives seemed to mean nothing to him! "You don't have to come in," Jackson told

Now that her case had been overturned, she could resume her career as a lawyer. However, she knew how difficult it would be for her to get back on that path.Even though the law had proved her innocence, her three-year imprisonment would still hinder her career.After all, how many clients would trust a lawyer who let herself be wrongfully imprisoned for three years?Furthermore, while many lawyers in her circle were aware of her case, most simply view it as an interesting topic of conversation rather than a reflection of her professional capabilities.Despite submitting numerous resumes online, she received an interview invitation from only one law firm.Nevertheless, she was determined to give it her best shot!Becoming a lawyer had been her dream for a long time, and she had worked hard to make it come true.Approaching the front desk, she introduced herself, "Hi, my name is Serenity Lewis. I’m here to interview for the paralegal position." Although she had been recognized as

Liliana's eyes widened, and she became visibly excited.When Serenity exited the interview room, she bumped into Liliana. "How come you're here for an interview, Serenity? Does your boyfriend know? Surely he could give you an entire law firm if you wanted to become a lawyer again?" Liliana asked with a fake smile. The co-worker next to Liliana was shocked to hear that. She sized Serenity up and asked Liliana, "You've gotta be kidding, Lily. Her boyfriend could give her an entire law firm?""I'm not kidding," Liliana reassured her. "Her boyfriend is Jackson Valor. A law firm is nothing to him."That sparked a burst of laughter from those around her. "Lily, are you serious? Her boyfriend is Jackson Valor?" "Even if you're joking, at least say something remotely believable. If her boyfriend is Jackson Valor, then my boyfriend is Lucas Gomez!" "Lily, we're lawyers. We can't make claims without proof. If Jackson Valor heard that, he might sue you for libel." "I'm telling the
