Jackson glanced at Caleb in disdain, and Caleb overheard a socialite nearby muttering, "Wow, he even looks good when he rolls his eyes!"Caleb was speechless at that and had an urge to throw up. Jackson had merely rolled his eyes and these infatuated girls were making a big deal out of it?!Just as Jackson removed his gloves, Caleb suddenly discovered something. He quickly snatched the gloves from Jackson's hand."Huh... these gloves seem to be hand-knitted, but the craftsmanship isn't that great," Caleb commented with a puzzled expression. "And the yarn, it looks like old yarn. Did some store scam you by selling you such gloves?""Who said I bought them?" Jackson replied nonchalantly.Caleb's jaw dropped in disbelief. If he hadn’t bought them, then was it possible... "Did someone knit them and give them to you?"Jackson didn't answer, but his expression confirmed it.Caleb felt his head spinning from the information. Someone had given them to Jackson? Considering Jackson's pe

Caleb was joking when he made the remark. He had grown accustomed to his friend changing girlfriends, and it would be a real surprise if Lucas went a prolonged period without doing so. But if Lucas were to replace his current little star, it would be the shortest relationship he had ever had."Well, I suppose you could say that," Lucas calmly replied, his gaze still locked with Jackson's.Caleb didn't think much of it, but suddenly, Jackson's face darkened, and even the air around them seemed to grow cold and heavy."Hey, Jackson, what's wrong? Why the serious face?" Caleb asked, puzzled by the inexplicable and eerie atmosphere.Jackson ignored Caleb. His inky dark eyes were fixed on Lucas, and the corner of his lips quirked up."That extra, was she your girlfriend's sister?""Yes. Quite a coincidence, isn't it?" Lucas said.Jackson's smile grew wider, but his eyes remained icy cold. "Yes, what a coincidence indeed."After uttering those words, he turned around and walked towar

Just as the person got closer to the camera, their figure became clearer on screen.When Serenity saw the person on the screen, she almost spat out the food in her mouth. It was... Jackson!On the screen, Jackson was dressed in a black suit. He stood tall with a neat hairstyle, looking like a noble and elegant gentleman. The only thing that seemed out of place was the scarf around his neck and matching gloves on his hands, which seemed completely mismatched with the suit.Netizens were already discussing and flooding the screen with comments inside the live stream chat.[Who's that?][He doesn't seem like a celebrity, but he's so handsome! Oh my, I would gladly kneel before his suit pants.][Oh my gosh, is this person really not a celebrity?! If he debuts, I'll be his number-one fan!][Quick, go and interview him! Talk to him! I can't wait!]The internet celebrity smiled brightly at the camera and said, "Let's go and interview him, then. Hopefully, this gentleman will agree t

There were even speculations that Jackson Valor had an argument with someone at the banquet and left in anger. There were also speculations that Jackson Valor was annoyed at being pestered by all the female socialites there, so he left early.In short, there were all kinds of speculations.Serenity read all this like she was reading normal gossip. She also wondered what made Jackson leave so suddenly.There was a knock on the door. Serenity got up to open it and, upon seeing the person standing outside, almost choked."*Cough*... *cough*..." She coughed, her face turning red.Who would have thought that the person whose whereabouts the netizens had been discussing the whole day would suddenly appear outside her door?Jackson frowned and patted Serenity's back to help her get her breath back. "Why are you coughing so hard? Did you catch a cold?"She shook her head and kept coughing. No, she did not catch a cold; she choked because she was shocked at his sudden appearance.When S

Earlier in the evening, his mood turned sour at the thought of her getting bullied on the set. He was anxious to see her.Now that he had seen her, his mood became even worse!Jackson flicked the swelling on her forehead."Ouch!" Serenity could not help crying out in pain.He scoffed. "You can feel pain?"Of course she could feel pain! She's not made of stone! How could she not feel pain when he flicked her with his finger?! Especially since he was flicking her where she was injured!She glared at him.He was so mad that he laughed. "Well done, Serenity Lewis. Well done. You refused to stay by my side without even giving it a second thought, so I thought you must have a lot of backbone and dignity. But then, what happened? You became an extra and was forced to repeatedly kneel and kowtow to your sister. Was that fun?"She bit her lip and subconsciously took a step back. Right now, he felt scary to her for some reason.But every time she took a step back, he would take a step f

"Are you saying that I scare you?" he asked.She hesitated slightly before replying, "I know that you're just treating me as an object in a game. You still maintain interest in me because the novelty hasn't worn off, but once your interest fades, I'll become worthless to you. If I accidentally piss you off, I might end up getting tormented again like I did back in prison."She never wanted to go through that kind of miserable experience again!"Surely saying all these things to me wouldn't piss me off, right?" he questioned.Her body stiffened. Of course she was afraid that it would, but she still chose to say them.Her reaction told him everything he needed to know.Silence enclosed around them. It was a scary silence.Serenity lowered her head. The only thing she could hear right now was her own breathing and heartbeat. Jackson did not say anything, but she could feel his eyes on her.She had no idea how much time had passed when she finally heard him say, "What if I tell you

She lightly bit her lip. Then, she sat down, picked up the chopsticks with her uninjured right hand and slowly finished her meal.All the while, he sat quietly next to her, watching her with his chin resting on his hand.Her eyelashes had a natural curl which was even more pronounced whenever she looked downwards. Her face was so small that he could cover it with one hand.Her tiny nose and her cheeks that were constantly moving while she was chewing made her look like a cute little pet.He had never realized that watching a woman eat could be so fascinating.The more he looked at her, the more he wanted to hide her away from prying eyes so that he would be the only person who could look at her and get close to her.He would not allow anyone else to covet her!Although Serenity was eating with her head hanging down, she could feel Jackson's eyes on her the whole time.There was an ambiguous feeling in the air.She felt her face becoming hotter and hotter. Even swallowing seeme

His lips moved even closer to hers. Their lips were almost touching by now.Serenity could not help but blush. "Don't..." she said in a panic.He stopped and stared at her fixedly. "Then how about you tell me how you met him.""A thief stole his bracelet. The thief then bumped into me and the bracelet fell into my pocket. Lucas Gomez asked for it back from me. That's how I met him," Serenity said in a hurry."Really?" he asked, "How many times have you met him?"She didn't count! But seeing Jackson's face moving closer, Serenity quickly counted and answered, "Four... Four times. After the incident, he bought me dinner to thank me for the bracelet. Then I ran into him at the hospital my grandmother was staying in. And then I met him again on the set today."His eyes gleamed. Based on his understanding of Lucas, if Lucas merely wanted to thank her for the bracelet, he could have just paid her. He did not have to buy her dinner.In other words, Lucas already had his eye on her back
