When Serenity entered the interrogation room, the police interrogation had already ended. Peter's face was very pale. He seemed to be at a loss.As soon as he saw Serenity, he said in a panic, "Serenity, I... I didn't do it! I don't know why that woman's trying to frame me!"Peter looked extremely confused. Everything happened so suddenly that he didn't know what to do."Calm down. Take your time and tell me what happened very slowly. I'm your lawyer now. I'll help you handle this case. If you can find a more suitable lawyer, you can change your lawyer anytime," Serenity said, comforting him.Peter slowly calmed down. "Thank you, Serenity."For the next half an hour, Serenity listened to Peter's side of the story. According to Peter, while he was helping Clara fetch Yanny's reports, Lynette suddenly appeared next to him. She said she sprained her foot and asked for his help to get to her car in the hospital's open-air parking lot.Because Lynette was holding a lot of things in he

"I don't understand what you're saying. Why would I frame him? What would I gain from it?" Lynette asked.That was exactly what Serenity couldn't figure out. "You're not even willing to settle, are you?""Would you settle with someone who tried to rape you?" Lynette asked, secretly appreciating Serenity's distress.For once, it gave her the feeling of having the upper hand over Serenity!Serenity took a deep breath and said, "Have you ever considered that by doing this, you'll be giving a person a lifelong stigma, and he won't be able to hold his head high for the rest of his life?""Serenity, stop accusing me of framing Peter Wall! You're a lawyer, so you know very well that you need evidence to make that kind of accusation!" Lynette said condescendingly."What will it take for you to let Peter go?" Serenity took a deep breath and said, "I'll do my best to satisfy your request."Although Serenity had no idea what Lynette's goal was, she had a vague feeling that it had something

"You know very well what the truth is," Serenity ignored Lynette's acting and looked only at Lucas. "Do you believe me?"The shock in Lucas' eyes slowly subsided. His long eyelashes fluttered for a moment before slowly dropping down, "You want me to believe that you're the little girl who saved me?""Yes," Serenity answered. Even though she knew that her revelation was too sudden, she wanted to gamble on his trust."I asked you this at the edge of the cliff not long after your grandmother passed away. Do you still remember what you told me?" Lucas' voice was soft.Serenity could only sigh. At that time, she wanted to give Jackson a sense of security, so even though she had recovered her memory, she insisted that she wasn't the little girl who saved Lucas."I remember," she said, "At that time, I did deny it, but...""But after that, I asked you on multiple occasions if you're the girl!" Lucas' voice had a tinge of mocking laughter. He raised his head to look at her, and his eyes

"Do you remember what you said to me in the hospital before we parted when we were children?" he suddenly asked."Huh?" Lynette blinked, then said, "Of course I remember. I gave you one of my bracelets and told you, when you come look for me, bring the bracelet with you as a token. That way, we'll always be able to recognize each other, even after we grow up and don't look the same anymore because we each have a bracelet that looks exactly the same."Lynette then deliberately added, "I remember watching a TV series where the male and female lead each carried half a jade pendant and found each other after they grew up because of it, so I did something similar."Lucas couldn't help but smile bitterly. What was he thinking? Did he actually hope that Serenity was telling the truth, that Serenity was the little girl who saved him, that the person he had been thinking about for all these years was actually Serenity?But that person was clearly Lynette! Even if Lynette wasn't as good as h

Thus, a strange scene formed outside the main entrance of the Valor Group headquarters. Serenity puked into a trash can while a security guard stood next to Serenity. Not far away, Jackson stood watching Serenity expressionlessly. Connor, Jackson's driver, and a few of the company's executives, as well as several security guards that came over to greet them, stood around Jackson.When Serenity finally emptied her stomach so she had nothing to vomit anymore, she looked up and found a bunch of people looking at her!It was the first time in her life she had such a large audience when she puked.And Jackson was among them!Today, he was wearing a black suit over a turtleneck sweater of the same color. He emanated a cold and unapproachable vibe.Serenity felt extremely embarrassed. She wanted to leave, but to get to the bus stop, she had to walk in Jackson's direction. She had no choice but to keep her head down and hurried away while wiping her mouth with a tissue.Jackson simply st
