It seemed that she had better resolve the problems regarding her dreams and her frequent headaches before they caused any more problems!And so, Serenity silently made up her mind and then made an appointment with Dr. Landale through the phone conversation they had just had. Meanwhile, after she had ended the call, Connor Gunn knocked on Jackson's office door and walked in."Mr. Valor," he reported, "Miss Lewis just contacted Dr. Landale and made an appointment with her. It's on the day after tomorrow."Jackson lowered his gaze. His long fingers were grasping a fountain pen at the time, and he kept on putting signatures on the documents in front of him as if nothing had happened, saying simply, "Okay. I got it."And so, Connor excused himself and left the office, but just before he closed the door, he suddenly heard a faint noise that sounded like something cracking or breaking.When the door was closed, Jackson remained sitting on the sofa, still in the same posture as before,

Why had he given up his life so easily? Why had he not thought of his only son? He must have known what Jackson, who was still a young boy then, would have to go through as soon as he died!Did this man really believe that sending Jackson back to the Valor family would solve all problems? How could he forget that his son needed a father by his side?By that point, Jack had already lost his mother, and then he had to lose his father as well. From a young age, he had to live in a house like this with no other family members but his grandpa who despised half of his lineage!She could almost imagine what his childhood must be like, walking on thin ice. There was no sign of affection between Jackson and his grandpa anywhere in the huge mansion at all, only a lonely child struggling to survive!Serenity walked through the front hall step by step until she reached the inner chamber. The furnishing in this room was exactly the same as she remembered when she was last here, with the memoria

She took a quick shower hastily and dressed up before rushing to the hospital.She had no idea that from the moment she stepped out of Valor Residence, someone was already reporting her moves to Jackson."Miss Lewis has gone out, Mr. Valor."It was Connor Gunn, reporting to Jackson in the CEO's office.Jackson looked down. His dark and long eyelashes trembled ever so slightly as he said, "Okay. I got it."After that came nothing but silence. Yet, for some reason, Connor began to shudder, because Jackson's eerie silence was making him feel… terrified.Serenity arrived at the hospital and got her queue number. Shortly afterward, she was already able to meet the psychiatrist.Dr. Landale was a woman in her forties. She was slightly chubby, and her gentle smiling eyes could put anyone at ease, making it easy for them to put their guard down.Perhaps someone like this is perfect as a psychiatrist.Serenity took a seat and proceeded to describe her condition in detail. She also me

As Serenity pushed open the door to the CEO's office, she saw a tall figure standing by the floor-to-ceiling window, overlooking the skyline of towering buildings in the city.Suddenly, Serenity felt that the scene before her was like a poster. He was simply standing there as if the entire city was under his control.In reality, he indeed had the capability to dominate the city.This version of him was like a completely different person from the vulnerable and lonely one she had seen early in the morning."Jack," she called out.Jackson turned his head and gave her a faint smile."You're here.""Yeah, I brought lunch for you. Have some and see if you like it," she said as she walked confidently toward the coffee table, placing the lunch boxes and fruits on it.He approached the coffee table as well and then opened the lunch box, sitting on the sofa.Serenity felt like she was back to the times when she used to have lunch with him in the office every afternoon."Does it taste

"Yeah. Just a cake will do. But this year, my birthday happens to be one day after my grandmother's seventh day of passing. I don't want to celebrate much. I just want to eat a cake with you and the others, including Lisa," Serenity said.Although this was her first birthday with him, her grandmother had recently passed away. So, she was still in mourning. She didn't want a lively birthday celebration. She only wanted to spend it quietly with him and her friends."Alright," Jackson agreed. "I'll prepare a birthday cake for you.""Thank you," she smiled faintly, then checked the time. It was almost the end of lunchtime, and Jackson would need to return to work. "I'll head back then and not disturb your work."As she spoke, she picked up her bag and stood up. But before she could take two steps, a pair of arms wrapped around her from behind, pulling her into his embrace. He buried his face in the crook of her neck, inhaling her fragrance. "Tomorrow... don't go to the hospital. Let
