Serenity jumped in a big shock. "Mary? What are you doing? Come on, get up. If you have something to say, just get up and talk about it!"Serenity tried to walk toward Mary, but Jackson held her wrist firm. He refused to let go, making it impossible for her to pass. Startled, Serenity turned to look at him. "Jack?" "Leave her be. She deserves it," Jackson said, his icy voice frightening her.The way Jackson behaved reminded Serenity of the Jackson she knew long ago. She remembered the man's hostile eyes and how he used to be ruthless and cold."Jackson, I owe it to you and your father. All these years, I've lived in regret, regretted why I left you two so heartlessly and caused so much irreversible damage!" Mary said, bursting into tears. Serenity jolted in surprise, her eyes widening in disbelief. Was Mary… Jack's long-lost mother? Serenity looked at Mary kneeling on the ground, unable to process any rational thought. Mary turned out to be Jack's mother. How could that be? Ho

Serenity's life in Latveria would have been much more miserable without Edward and Mary's help, and Jackie would have suffered with her. Mary had helped her a lot when she needed it. Mary was the one taking care of Jackie when she was busy with work."Jack! Please let Mary stop!" Serenity glanced up at Jackson, telling him, "Mary just got out from the hospital. Her body won't be able to take this. I know you hate her, but can't you let her atone for her sins in another way?"Jackson slowly turned his head, and his dark eyes locked onto hers. “So, you're still going to plead for her, aren't you?"Yes," Serenity said, the word struggled past gritted teeth. "You should know what she did to me, to my father!" he said, looking at her with what seemed to be a touch of sadness. The heavy weight in her chest grew with every word he spoke. "I know. I know all that, but Edward and Mary have been kind to me. Jack, I beg you, please. Let Mary stop. Mary has changed. She's not the same as sh

"Mrs.Valor, you may ask Mr. Valor about this," Connor answered politely."Where's Jackson, then? Where did he go?" Serenity continued asking."I'm not very sure of that," Connor answered. "Mr. Valor only gave orders regarding Mr. And Mrs. Klein and left without saying anything else. I'm just working for him, so it's not right for me to ask for his whereabouts."Connor took Edward and Mary with him and left, and Serenity stared blankly at the car as it drove away. The events of the last hour had been like a dream to her. She welcomed Edward and Mary's visit to Solaria, but what started as a joyous meeting had now become a nightmare. Mary turned out to be Jack's long-lost mother, and Jack's hatred for his mother was more than she ever imagined!Jack… Where was he? Serenity thought restlessly. She quickly pulled out her phone and dialed Jackson's number, but no matter how many times she called, no one answered. Pick it up! Hurry and answer the call! She had so much to tell him! Sereni

After Jude Valor died, Master Zack had bought the house and kept everything inside the same. It was Master Zack's way of telling Jackson not to forget what had happened back then!Master Zack wanted the house to serve as a constant reminder of how his father had died and how his mother had left him behind!The car drove to its destination, and Jackson shut his eyes again. Was his love just self-deception? Was it nothing more than wishful thinking? Would he end up like his father, falling into despair in an unequal relationship?- When Serenity got home, Jackson was still not back at Valor Residence. She called his number on her phone, but he was unreachable.Where are you, Jack?! Serenity became desperate. She knew asking Connor would not help, and Elliot could not give her any answers either. When the children came home, Serenity had to force a smile, pretending that everything was fine.Jacqueline became curious as Jackson did not come back home for dinner. "Where's Daddy? Is

"I know it's late, which is precisely why I must look for him!" Serenity had to find Jackson as soon as possible. She owed him an apology. Otherwise, their misunderstanding would only worsen, and the widening rift between them would eventually be irreconcilable."I shall arrange a car for you," Elliot offered. Serenity agreed with a nod. She had retaken her driving test and gotten her driver's license issued in Latveria, but she was too tired and emotionally unstable. She could drive, but letting someone else drive was much safer.The car took Serenity to the Valor Group building, but Jackson was not there, so she told the driver to go to one of the villas she knew. While on the way, she noticed that the driver deliberately avoided the usual road and detoured around the city, so she asked, "Why don't you just drive straight ahead?"The navigation shows that the road ahead is closed. We have to take a detour," the driver explained."The road is closed?" Serenity jolted in surprise
