Chapter 127
She already felt stronger than she did yesterday.
Her phone had been ringing from time to time. All the calls were from the relatives from her mother’s
side. They’re calling her for various reasons.
Some pleaded on her uncle’s behalf, hoping that she would withdraw her charges.
Some called to ask who the big shot who took her away from the Fosters was. After all, there were so
many police cars there that day that the Foster residence was completely surrounded. All the neighbors
saw it.
Some called to borrow money. They said that, since she knew a big shot like that, she must have a lot
of money now, so she should help her relatives out.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSerenity was speechless. Big shot? She still had no idea who “Jack” really was.
But from what they said, she managed to piece together some things that Jack did not tell her, such as
how she was rescued from the Fosters that day.
Serenity walked out of the ward. She told the nurse who was in charge of her, “I just want to walk
around the corridor for a bit. You don’t have to come with me. Having someone following her around
made her feel awkward.
The nurse consented.
The bodyguard outside the door did not say anything. After all, Serenity had already walked back and
forth in the corridor several times this morning.
When Serenity reached the emergency staircase, she saw Jackson through the glass door. He was at
the top of the stairs, talking on his phone.
He was leaning slightly against the wall with a cigarette in hand. She could only see his back from this
angle. The well-fitting suit he wore out ined his broad shoulders, narrow waist and slender legs very
well. Even if he was just standing there casually, he looked like a model in a poster.
Before this, she was actually thinking that she should save up to buy him a suit and wondered how he
would look in one. She could not have imagined that the first time she saw him wear a suit would be
under such circumstances.
Her phone suddenly rang. Serenity looked at the caller ID and saw that it was Lisa.
“Lisa? What’s up?” asked Serenity.
“Serenity, umm… Is “Jack” with you right now? Lisa emphasized the word “Jack” hard.
“Yeah, answered Serenity.
“Then… Is he next to you?” Lisa continued with an anxious tone.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Nope,” said Serenity as her eyes darted to the figure across the glass door. He was still talking on the
phone with his back to her and had not noticed her yet.
Her gaze moved down onto the cigarette he was holding. She certainly did not expect him to be a
smoker. After all, he never smoked in front of her.
But of course he’s a smoker. He’s a young man from a rich family. Those people usually smoked.
He actually looked elegant holding that cigarette. Serenity never know that men could look good
holding a cigarette too.

“Serenity, do you realize that “Jack” might be Jackson Valor?” Lisa suddenly dropped this bomb on her.
“What?!” The information shocked Serenity so much that she felt like her head was going to explode.
She stared wide-eyed at the figure across the glass door. ‘Jackson Valor? Jack is Jackson Valor? No
way! How can they be the same person?’
