"Serenity, it was my choice to save you, so you don't need to feel guilty about anything."Lucas's sharp eyes seemed to have read exactly what was on her mind. Serenity could feel her throat getting parched.Over an hour later, Lisa arrived at the hospital to pay Lucas a visit. She also informed them about what the police had discovered about the accident in their investigation. It turned out that someone had tampered with her car, causing the brakes to fail after the car had been driven for a while.If Lucas had not crashed into Lisa's car back then, things would have certainly turned tragic."I guess that's why my car's alarm always sounded for no reason," Lisa added."You're probably right," said Serenity. "What else did the police say?""They just told me that they'd continue with the investigation," replied Lisa, "and that they'd give you a call and ask you some questions to get more details."Serenity nodded. She sincerely hoped that the police would catch the culprit as s

She gazed at him in confusion. The man's face was full of concern for her. She could see that he had dark bags under his eyes. He probably did not have a good sleep last night. He had even told her that he had a lot of things to take care of regarding the conflict within the White family, yet he suddenly rushed to her side after what happened!Lisa cupped his face between her hands and told him, "Let's get married! I want to marry you as soon as all the problems within the White family are settled!"Although they had talked about marriage before, now that Lisa had been through a life-and-death situation, for the first time in her life, she had the urge to get married and be with him as soon as possible because she wanted to spend as much time with him as possible. Even if she could get a minute or a second longer with him, it would be absolutely worth it!Having stared death in the face was probably the reason why she cherished every moment she had with more than ever now. She even

"I've got another friend staying in this hospital that I'd like to visit," said Serenity, "so I'll be leaving now.""Oh, okay."Peter then turned sideways a little awkwardly to give way to Serenity. As she was walking in the hallway, heading toward the elevator, Peter's eyes never left her slender figure at all. He wondered who she had ended up choosing between Jackson Valor and Lucas Gomez, but he dared not ask her about it directly.In any case, he was sure that she would live a happy life no matter who she chose!As for him, he knew that he was infinitely inferior to either of those men! And yet… he was still unable to completely give up on her even after knowing that there was no way he even had a chance with her because the feelings he had for her just would not go away.When Serenity got to Lucas's private ward, she found that not only was Lynette there, but his parents were also there."What are you doing here?" asked Mrs. Gomez with a long face, glowering at Serenity with

“Did you think of Jackson just now?” asked Lucas. While his question was completely unnecessary, his pride forced him to ask her. Serenity felt suffocated by the silence. Still, it was a sufficient reply. “Even if he continues to linger in your heart, I’ll wait for the day when you have finally moved on from him and make you fall in love with me,” Lucas said to her. “It’s not that I can’t move on from him. In fact, I’ve completely lost feelings for him,” rebutted Serenity. “That’s all the better,” said Lucas with a smile. “If that’s the case, maybe the wait will be shorter than I thought. To be honest, you don’t hate me, do you?” Serenity pursed her lips when she heard his question. Hate? How could she possibly hate Luke?Just then, Lucas’ phone started ringing. His expression changed seconds after answering the call. “Alright, got it!” A moment later, he hung up the call and turned toward Serenity. “We’ve discovered the person behind the car accident.” “What?” uttered

Some passersby cast curious glances at the scene that the woman had created. At that moment, Jackson couldn’t be bothered to even look at her. Instead, he continued making his way to his vehicle. When she saw his reaction, she turned around and accidentally caught sight of Serenity from the corner of her eye. Immediately, she rushed at her and yelled, “Ms. Lewis, please help me! You helped me last time too, so please! Ask Mr. Valor to forgive me!” The whole situation developed so quickly that Serenity couldn’t respond in time. Her mind had barely registered what was going on when the lady was already standing before her. Her fingertips were wrapped in a conspicuous layer of white gauze. Her forehead was red and swollen with blood slowly oozing out from the wound caused earlier by her groveling. Her facial expression reflected her desperation, almost as if she was clinging to every chance just to avoid this disaster. “I shouldn’t have taken advantage of your past! It was wrong
