Semua Bab My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict!: Bab 1041 - Bab 1050

Serenity looked up, and their eyes met. His eyes were like the eyes of a phoenix – narrow and deep with slightly raised tails. When those eyes stared at someone intently, they're capable of stirring the target's heart.For some reason, Serenity's nose felt a bit stuffy; it could be because he was the "Luke" from her childhood, or it could be because he wanted to share her pain.Before this, she had always endured her pain alone. This time, someone was there with her. "Don't be too good to me, Lucas. I'm not worth it," she murmured. She knew she couldn't repay his kindness. "That's up to me to decide," he replied. "Even if it hurts, I believe it's worth it."She stared at him in a daze. There was an inexplicable sensation in her chest.After driving Serenity home, Lucas gazed at her back as she vanished from sight before lowering his head to inspect the band-aid on his right arm. "Serenity..." he whispered her name. Then, he pressed his lips tenderly on the band-aid.No woma

Clara was busy working at the food stall when she saw Serenity arrive. She greeted Serenity warmly, asking, "What brings you here?" "I have no plans tonight, so I came to see how you're doing," Serenity replied, "Any troublemakers recently?" Clara's face fell slightly. Noticing that, Serenity asked, "There are more of them?""A few more. I already lodged a police report, and the police promised to patrol here in the next couple of days, but..."Before Clara had even finished, several rowdy individuals approached the food stall menacingly and harassed the customers until the customers left. They then spread out and sat down, one person to each table, until all the tables were occupied. Then, they ordered the cheapest item on the menu.Clara had only prepared four folding tables, so there were now no vacant tables left.When new customers came and asked to share a table, the thugs would scare them away with loud and unpleasant voices.Serenity scowled. "They do this every day?"

"You rejected Lucas Gomez?" Sam asked in surprise.Serenity felt a little awkward, as Lucas was right there with them.Before she could respond, Sam resumed applying her makeup and remarked, "Impressive. This is the first time I've seen someone turn down Lucas' advances.""Why do you look so happy that I got rejected?" Lucas asked, giving Sam a sideway glance."It's because I've never seen it before, so it feels novel," said Sam. Although he was making small talk, his hands moved methodically without pause. By the time the car arrived at the venue entrance, Serenity's hair and makeup were done."I didn't prepare an evening gown for her. You said you'd take care of it," Sam said, looking over at Lucas.Lucas handed Serenity a bag with the gown and said, "Here's your gown. I believe it'll fit. We'll all get out of the car so that you can get changed." He asked everyone to get out of the car.Serenity opened the bag. When she saw the dress inside, her pupils shrunk.It was a pur

"I... Haha, I heard a lot of famous stars will be here tonight, so I asked Terry to bring me here," Lisa chuckled. She was too embarrassed to tell Serenity that Terry had only agreed to bring her here after she kissed him, coaxed him, and gave him a good time in bed.Before coming, she had to promise Terry that she wouldn't ogle at the male celebrities, ask them for autographs, or take pictures with them.She reluctantly agreed. At least she would get to see them. It was better than nothing.To her surprise, her best friend was also here, and the person next to her was... Lisa looked Lucas Gomez up and down.As a fan of multiple celebrities, of course she recognized Lucas Gomez.He was the Crown Prince of the entertainment industry! He was the man behind many successful stars!Even if you were a pig, if he wanted to make you famous, you would become famous. "What are you doing here, Serenity? Also, how come you're with...""I came to look for someone. I asked for Mr. Gomez’s

Serenity looked like a famous young socialite in the elegant gown and exquisite makeup.Meanwhile, despite Lynette's regular beauty routines, despite hiring top class stylists to help her with makeup and styling, Lynette would still occasionally hear people around her mocking her as a country bumpkin. It seemed that even money couldn't fix certain things.Why was there such a big disparity? She and Serenity looked very similar when they were young. At times, people even confused them for twins! Otherwise, she couldn't have deceived Lucas with her childhood photos.But over time, she and Serenity grew more and more different from each other. Serenity got prettier while Lynette became more ordinary. Her eyes were not as pretty as Serenity's, her nose was bigger, and her skin wasn't as smooth.At the thought of that, Lynette grew even more resentful. "Why can't I be here with him?" Serenity asked her cousin with a sneer.Lynette was looking at Serenity as if Serenity had stolen som
