Semua Bab My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict!: Bab 1261 - Bab 1270

Jackson's hand tightened on Serenity's arm so hard his knuckles turned white, and Serenity's pained yelp snapped him back to reality. "Does it hurt?" Jackson asked, releasing his grip."I'm fine. Something on your mind?" Serenity asked.Jackson looked at Serenity's face, wondering if he should be honest with his thoughts. He did not want her to know the truth. If Master Zack had told her the truth about the car accident, what would she think of him? Would she treat him the same and never leave him?Jackson pressed two fingers to her cheek, holding her in his arms."You promised you'll always stay by my side. That you'd never leave me. If you do, I'll… I'll probably choose to die with you," Jackson rasped, a hint of vulnerability in his eyes. Serenity breathed in his heavenly scent, hearing not just his voice but also his pounding heartbeat. She did not expect Jackson to threaten Master Zack earlier, defending her and her babies. It gave her a warm feeling, something she had not f

"What a scheming person! Why is Prince Lucas supporting a person like this?""It's disgusting, deliberately framing someone like this. Wouldn't the man in the video be wrongly accused if not for this video?""I heard Lynette is suing a guy for sexual assault. That's not the guy, is it? Oh, my God. Why is the perpetrator suing the innocent? Lynette's the one who's going to prison!"Everyone was commenting on the video. Lynette heard everything and grew angry, wanting to smash the screen! 'Who is it? Who's trying to hurt me?!' Just then, Lynette heard a commotion at the entrance and looked up to see a tall man walking toward her. It was Lucas! Lynette rushed to Lucas immediately. She was hoping that Lucas would show up early, but not at such timing! She wanted to prove to everyone that she had a great relationship with Lucas, but she would rather he did not come when such a video was playing on the screen. "Lucas, don't look! This video is a setup. It's not real… It's… They must

"Lynette, you're amazing. I never thought someone like you could've fooled me!" Lucas snapped, putting his hand behind her head.Lucas pushed Lynette down, crushing her head against the floor. Her forehead hurt from hitting the ground.Lynette struggled to move her head, but Lucas tightened his grip, pressing her firmly on the ground."Do you realize what you've done? Your greed has ruined my life. Lynette, you deserve to die! You deserve it!""No… Lucas… T-Trust me… I'm the one who saved your life… Don't listen to someone else's lie…" Lynette struggled.Lucas lifted her up again and strangled her neck. "You think I haven't checked? I've investigated everything. You were never the one who saved me. It was Serenity!"Lynette trembled uncontrollably, her face terribly pale. The red and hatred in Lucas' eyes had put her in utter fear.'H-He knows! He knows the truth!' Lynette realized suddenly, knowing that her lies would no longer work. Lucas would never believe her again. Knowi

His gentle tone made it sound like it was nothing but a normal and mundane conversation, but his eyes were laser-focused on her face, almost as if he was not going to let even her subtlest expressions escape his notice.Serenity pursed her lips and told him, "There's nothing to regret at all–it was my decision to do what I did in the first place, so I'm perfectly fine with it."Besides, even if she had told him earlier, she could still never give Lucas what he actually wanted, because the man that she truly loved was…As the thought crossed her mind, darkness flashed in her eyes.She used to love him so much in the past, but what about now? Was there any feeling left in her heart for this man?"What are you thinking about?" he asked, suddenly holding up her chin with his fingers. He hated it whenever there was that downcast look in her eyes because it made him feel like she was hiding something inside of her that he would never understand."Nothing," she replied."I want to hear

He raised his hand to gently rub the corner of her lips, gently wiping away the trace of water left from when she rinsed her mouth."But even if you really detest me," he said, "it still doesn't matter! We're husband and wife now, so it's perfectly natural for us to touch each other, right? For the sake of our kids, you'll endure it even if you're reluctant, isn't that true?"He then turned around and was prepared to walk away after finishing his sentence, almost as if he had no intention to listen to her response at all."It's getting late now," he said. "You should go to bed. I've still got some work to take care of, so I'll be in my study."But before he could take more than two steps away from her, he suddenly felt a pair of slender arms wrapping around his waist from behind."I don't detest you," she told him, burying her face against his broad back. "What happened just now was purely morning sickness, and I have no control over when I feel sick, but I know that at the very l
