Chapter 867
What did he mean?!Serenity stared blankly at Jackson only to see his almost perfectly exquisite lips part, and the next words that came out of his mouth were, "Haven't you always longed for a family, Sis? Then why don't you keep on being my Sis?"Serenity was shocked into silence. After a while, she suddenly got an urge to burst out into a roar of laughter."You want me to continue being your sister and you'll be my younger brother?""Why not?" he asked her."Don't you realize how comical you are right now, Jackson Valor?!"This time, she really burst out laughing before adding, "Back then, you said you wanted to date me, so I agreed and we dated, and then you said you wanted to break up with me, and I agreed again, and now? You're bored of that dating game you played with me so you want to go back to playing the game of us pretending to be brother and sister, huh?"His expression instantly darkened, and he replied, "This isn't a game. You can be my Sis, the elder sister of Jac
Chapter 868
Right now, her priority was in comparing the details Peter had provided her with to the information she already had, and from there, she would try to find more clues that would confirm the hunch she had of what had really happened!Meanwhile, the black car had already reached Valor Residence, but Jackson still would not get out of the car. Instead, he remained sitting in the back seat, his eyes closed but his mind focused while the mobile in his hand played a video. It was the video of Serenity at the amusement park with Peter and Yanny, but it was not the one Serenity had seen earlier. In fact, Jackson had many more videos like this on his phone. These videos captured every single thing Serenity had experienced at the amusement park today. Connor, who was sitting in front, was so tense at the moment that he dared not even breathe. The car was filled with the cheerful noise of people playing together, yet the atmosphere was dismal and dreary in the car.After a long while, he fin

"But the fingerprints on the steering wheel and the surveillance video of them getting into the car both indicated that Ann Hawkins was in the driver's seat and Susie Sheen was in the passenger seat," Mr. Graham argued."That is true," replied Serenity, "but… there's something fishy about the time.""The time?" Mr. Graham narrowed his eyes.Serenity continued, "I did a little experiment myself this morning and took a taxi from the location they got into the car to the location of the accident and made sure that the taxi was driving at the speed we estimated from the surveillance videos. It took me 15 minutes to get there, yet in this case, the witness, Peter Wall, immediately reported the accident to the police after it happened, which showed that the time between those two people getting into the car and the time of accident was 23 minutes! No matter how you look at it, the 8 minutes' difference is just too significant to ignore, don't you think?"Mr. Graham's eyes gleamed. This w
Chapter 870
Although Susie would sometimes pause when she spoke as if she was trying to recall her memory, Serenity had a feeling that the look in Susie's eyes was not that of someone recalling something.If it was true that Susie's answers had been prepared beforehand, there was a high chance that her theory might be true.As she was lost in her thoughts, someone suddenly shoved her aside and yelled, "Damn it, you extra! What are you doing standing there?! Get out of here! Don't you see the camera here? Don't just wander around wherever you like!"Alarmed, Serenity realized that she had inadvertently walked in front of the camera in another team of filming crew. She then apologized profusely, "I'm so sorry! I didn't mean it!""Who hired you, anyway? Don't you know that you can't just go anywhere you like around here? Besides…"But before the man could finish his sentence, another voice interrupted him, saying, "She's not a part of the crew."Serenity turned around swiftly and saw Lucas Gome
Chapter 871
She had a hunch that Lucas would hold her there for as long as she would not give him an answer."He has already broken up with me, so of course I would stop loving him. There, I’ve answered you. Will you let go of me now?""Who will you love, then?" he asked.She had no desire to love anyone anymore. All she wanted now was to live a quiet and peaceful life alone.She looked up at him and said, "That's none of your business, Mr. Gomez. Didn't you tell me back in the mountains that from then on, we would be strangers to each other and nothing more?"His body stiffened. Strangers… He had indeed decided that they would be strangers to each other from then on, but when it came the time to actually make it happen, he found it to be excruciatingly hard.That night, after noticing her standing so awkwardly next to the pool table, he just could not take his eyes off her. Her appearance had so easily broken his initial resolve.In fact, he even felt a little happy when he heard of her br

That way, everyone in the film crew would know of her connection to Lucas Gomez, and then, even if she only landed a minor role, she would still be able to hold her head high and be respected by everyone, not to mention that there might be a chance the director would add more scenes for her to be in!This had all been planned carefully by Lynette, and everything had indeed happened as she had planned. That was… until everything changed with Serenity's sudden appearance!Especially after so many people in the crew had seen how Lucas had grabbed Serenity's arm just now, and now that Lucas had even left…Lynette could sense that the eyes around her, which had initially been looking at her with envy, had now all turned into mockery and even sympathy.And all of this was Serenity's fault!She would never let Serenity take Lucas away from her! Lucas was her hope for a better life. If she wanted to live prosperously and luxuriously for the rest of her life, hanging onto Lucas Gomez no ma

Serenity froze in shock. She staggered uncontrollably and was about to lose her balance, but an arm suddenly wrapped around her waist and supported her.A moment later, she could hear Jackson's voice asking her, "What's going on here?"She turned around and stared blankly at the face that was only inches away from her. She then turned to the two men who were now subdued by Jackson's bodyguards. Only then did her senses return to her and she said, "I don't know them.""You don't know them?" he responded, frowning."No," she answered, before turning back to him and asking, "What are you doing here?""To see you," he replied, his eyes focused on one of the men lying on the ground, wailing in pain. He turned back to her and said, "Just now, I think I heard that man say he's your boyfriend. Is that true?"His voice was low, but it was laced with a distinctly threatening aura."I told you I don't know them, so how could he be my boyfriend?!""You're right," Jackson smiled. "That was

As she spoke, she vehemently tried to pull back her hand from him, but he still held it firmly and would not let it go."Call me Jack," he said."That would be inappropriate, Mr. Valor. We…""Call me Jack," he insisted again. "Or else, do you want to stay here with me like this forever?"Serenity bit her lips. She scanned her surroundings and noticed a crowd of people staring at them. If they remained this way any longer, it was very likely that there would be a video of her with Jackson getting posted online."Ja… Jack!"She uttered the name with visible difficulty, but in the next moment, Jackson smiled faintly, and his eyes even shone with happiness, replacing the threat and hostility that had been there earlier…— Serenity watched as Jackson boldly strode into her rental room, contemplating whether or not she should move to another place. But then she thought that even if she moved, he would still follow her to her new place anyway."What exactly do you want?" she asked,
