The elevator stopped at the floor where the CEO's office was, and Jackson dragged Serenity out of the elevator."Let go… What the hell do you want…" Serenity screamed, afraid of Jackson. The icy look on his face, the menace emanating from him, everything about him reeked of danger at this moment. She just could not read his mind.The secretaries around the office dared not even attempt to look at Jackson and Serenity. They waited until Jackson took Serenity into his office before exchanging glances and agreed to act as if nothing had happened. Of course, most of them could not hide the shock in their eyes!Jackson's secretaries knew Serenity, naturally. The secretaries had never seen Mr. Valor so attached to a woman before and secretly talked about it. The possibility of Serenity becoming Mrs. Valor had always been the constant topic of discussion among the secretaries, but Serenity's name had become taboo lately. Recently, someone had gotten fired by the company for unintentional

Serenity quickly dialed Lisa's phone number only to hear the busy ringtone. Serenity tried to call several times in a row, but none of it got through. Unable to reach Lisa, Serenity felt a sense of uneasiness growing within herself. Lisa! Please be safe!Serenity tried to search the internet for more news about Terry's current whereabouts, but the earlier headline was the only news she found. Terry was just a businessman and not a star. He did not get much attention as the head of the White family, so the news of his whereabouts had not been trending.What was going on with Lisa? Why hadn't Lisa been answering her phone?! Serenity also tried texting and messaging Lisa. She did anything she could to get in touch, but there was no reply. Serenity hesitated before reaching out to Lisa's parents. She had their number saved in her phone, but she stopped contacting them after she had gotten involved in the accident and gone to prison. Lisa's parents hated her but for a reason. She was

After speaking to Mrs. Quest, Mr. Quest turned to Serenity and said, "Lisa's in critical condition, as you can see. Everything is a mess now. We're already in a very bad mood, and we'd rather you didn't show up. We know Lisa's condition has nothing to do with you, but we can't help but feel angry whenever we think about how much Lisa gave up for you.""I-I understand," Serenity choked out. She knew, so she had never complained about Lisa's parents. No parent would ever want to see their child sacrifice their bright future for just a friend.Just then, a nurse came over and handed Lisa's parents a bill. "Your previous deposit has been deducted. As the actual expenses have exceeded the deposit, there aren't enough funds available to cover the cost of your hospitalization. Please make a deposit top-up as soon as possible. Ms. Quest will need two more surgeries after this. The estimated cost of the surgeries and the next few days of hospitalization is about a few hundred thousand dollars

Serenity was still at the gate when a car drove by. Lynette got out of the car, surprised to see Serenity. She came over and asked, "Serenity? What are you doing here?" Taking a deep breath, Serenity explained to Lucas, "I want to see Lucas. I have a friend who's seriously injured. She's in the ICU now, and I'd like to ask Lucas for help. Would you… If you can, take me in to see Lucas, please?"Serenity knew that there was no way Lynette would agree because of their damaged relationship, but she had to try asking anyway, for Lisa's sake.Sure enough, as she expected, Lynette refused with a troubled look. "I can't. Well, you should know. Lucas and you parted on bad terms, and he's still angry. If I take you in, Lucas will get angry at me. I'm sorry, I can't help you with this."After that, Lynette went back to the car. The gate slowly opened, and the car drove in. Lynette leaned back in the car, a triumphant look on her face as she saw Serenity's pained look through the window. W

"Keep driving." Lucas flatly ordered the driver. Then he leaned back, slowly closing his eyes.Yeah. How could he forget? Serenity was doing all of this for Peter's sake! Her sadness, fatigue, and persistence—they were all for Peter!When the driver heard the order, he rolled the window down and told the guards outside, "Take her away. Mr. Gomez doesn't want to see her." Serenity was shocked and shouted, "Lucas, I really have something urgent. I really need your help…" But the car window slowly rolled up, cutting off her voice. And the next moment, the security guards on the side pulled her away!Serenity watched as the car slowly drove away. Desperate, she used all her strength and pushed the guards away. She ran after the car, but no matter how she ran, she could not outpace the car. The distance between her and the car just kept growing.Lynette sat in the car and saw Serenity through the window. Seeing how Serenity tried to chase after the car desperately, she was secretly de
