Chapter 263
“But what I said earlier, you’d better take it to heart,” Jackson reminded her.
Serenity was stunned. What did he mean by that? Take it to
art? What he had said earlier w…

“If she wants to, I’d gladly marry her.’ Did Jackson really know the meaning behind this?
Serenity’s thoughts were a mess, and it went on until the two got into the car and arrived at the Valor
Residence. Serenity followed Jackson out of the car. Just as they were about to enter the house, he
suddenly stopped in his tracks.
“Oh, right. I’ve also starved before,” Jackson said, “I’ve had times when I was so hungry I thought I
might die.”
His father had died when he was a child. After cremating his father’s body, he had gone home and

so hungry that he almost lost all strength and had a brush with death.
He only survived because his neighbor had come and knocked on his door, offering him some food.
Serenity was shocked and looked at his back in surprise. Jackson shared his words with such a light
tone, but somehow, it made her feel a little heartache.
Serenity remembered what Jackson had told her when he was still Jack. He had told her stories of his
childhood. His mother had left him and his father, and his father… had died in the snow. He must have
had a hard life before joining the Valor family.
Serenity’s hand curled against her sides. Earlier… After hearing what he had said last, she almost
subconsciously wanted to touch his head and comfort him like before.
However, she had come to her senses at the very next second. Jackson Valor was not the Jack she
knew. He was Jackson Valor, someone out of her reach and untouchable.
Meanwhile, in the Lewis Residence, Aria was crying to her parents, complaining about the grievances
she had suffered at work.
“He made me loneel to Serenity in front of so many people. She knew Jackson Valor but deliberately
kept it from us. She must have bad intentions! She’s just trying to see me suffer!” Aria whimpered.
“What? She knows Jackson Valor?!” Grayson was shocked. “Which Jackson? That Jackson from Valor
Group?!
After all, Jackson Valor was a well-known figure in Solaria. Naturally, many would have heard of his
name.
Aria immediately knew what her father was thinking when she saw his excitement.
“Dad! Okay, maybe Serenity does know Jackson, but do you really think he’ll be serious with her?! Did
you forget? Serenity was the one who killed Jackson’s fiancee years ago. Who knows what Jackson is
up to!”
“That’s right!” Catherine chimed in from beside, “I think this is probably a game of revenge. He probably
wants to spoil her first and punish her later. Isn’t that a common plot in TV shows?”

The mother and daughter’s words came pouring like cold water and instantly extinguished the little
thoughts in Grayson’s heart.
Right. Grayson’s daughter was an ex-convict. She was just a sanitation worker. Could someone like
Jackson Valor really fall for an ex-convict and sanitation worker?
“And she also deliberately attempted to curry favor with Lucas. Lucas misunderstood me and thought I
was targeting her before!”
Aria continued and complained, “Dad, how can Serenity is such a sister? A normal sister would be
happy to see her younger sibling doing well, but Serenity always gets in my way!”
Grayson frowned at Aria’s words.
Aria continued adding fuel to the fire. “I can’t let Lucas break up with me because of Serenity. I wouldn’t
know what to do in
the future. Dad, I really love Luicas.”
