My Gorgeous Wife is an Ex-Convict! のすべてのチャプター: チャプター 51 - チャプター 60

"Are you falling in love with him because of what he just told you, Sis?"Jackson asked the question in a soft voice, but there was a flash of jealousy in his eyes that even he himself did not realize.His breath brushed against the tip of her nose, and such close distance disconcerted her. A sense of danger washed over her. It felt like if she failed to give him the right answer, she would instantly be bitten in the neck by a savage beast.Good lord, what was she thinking?!Serenity silently scoffed at the thought that had just crossed her mind. She reminded herself that the man in front of her was Jack, not anyone dangerous at all."I don't have any feelings for Peter," she told him. She knew that she could never reciprocate Peter's feelings. She could only apologize to him.Her short response cheered Jackson up instantly. He looked at her and asked, "Are you sure you haven't fallen in love with that guy?""Why would I lie to you about it?" she responded. Ever since she was re

He had just gotten off work at the time when he had seen Serenity kneeling on the side of the road, trying her best to comfort a crying little girl. She had sung to the girl, danced, and made all kinds of silly and funny moves in an attempt to cheer the girl up without caring about how the people around her might think, and in the end, she had succeeded in making the girl stop crying.After that, she had bought the girl a bun and stood there while reporting to the police, never leaving the girl's side until her parents came to take her safely home.Eventually, the police had returned with the girl's family. The parents had tried to give her a hundred dollars for helping keep their daughter safe, even stuffing the money into her hands, but all she had done was smile and shake her head firmly, refusing to accept even a single cent.Once the girl had finally left with her parents, Serenity stood quietly in the same spot, staring at the young family walk away with a peaceful smile on he

In the past, Serenity would always come here for a meal with her colleagues at the law firm after work. Back then, eating here was nothing more than a normal routine after an ordinary workday, yet now, having a meal here felt like a rare treat and an extravagant one at that."It looks pretty good!" said Jackson, trying to distract Serenity by changing the subject. "I'll let you order, then."Serenity then ordered some dishes for both of them. She only chose the cheaper dishes, and the most expensive one, a shrimp dish, cost about 7 dollars. All the dishes added up to about 25 dollars, which was not that much at all, but it was still the most expensive meal Serenity had had in a long time.Jackson urged her to order more food, saying, "Don't worry, Sis, I can afford it."However, Serenity merely replied, "This is more than enough for both of us to have a nice meal. There's no need to order more food."Not long afterward, the waiter brought all the dishes to the table, and they both

The red light soon turned green. Zeke was about to drive away, but his whole body suddenly froze when he realized that the man beside Serenity looked very familiar... The image of the only man in the whole of Solaria that he must never offend popped up in his mind.That man looked just like Jackson Valor!But how could it be him? How could Jackson Valor be with Serenity?! The idea itself was ridiculous!The car behind Zeke honked, urging him to move already, but at that moment, the man beside Serenity suddenly turned around and looked up in Zeke's direction. As soon as Zeke could see the man's face, he felt as if the blood in his body had frozen into ice.Jack... Jackson Valor?!Was it really Jackson Valor?! Sure, the man's clothes and hairstyle were different from what he remembered, but that face was simply identical to the man himself!Zeke drove away while his body was still stiff in shock, and he could not help but doubt if what he had just seen was real. Meanwhile, at t

"Quinn Fender, I don't want anyone in this workplace to be hostile to each other. Serenity Lewis certainly has been in prison before, but that is no reason for us to discriminate against her, making it difficult for her to survive. Since you don't feel comfortable working with her, I think it's best that you leave this job."But... But she was a full-time employee! How could she be fired just like that?! Quinn could hardly believe that it was real, yet she could not deny that it had just happened!She heard someone urging her, "Say something, Quinn."She looked around her, then when her gaze fell on Serenity, she rushed toward her in a burst of outrage. She reached her in one huge stride and yelled, "You! It's all your fault! If it hadn't been for you, the director would never have fired me! You're the one he's supposed to fire!"Everyone there was astounded. So the one getting fired had ended up being... Quinn Fender?!"You're not joking, are you, Quinn?""But how could it be?!"
