Chapter 280
He was a young adult, a beautiful man v
with the kind of pretty
face that was very popular at the moment.
His facial features were exquisite, as if they were painted on. But at the moment, his thin lips were
tightly pursed together, and that pair of extremely beautiful black eyes seemed to be shrouded by
anger.
That man… was angry? thought Serenity. Moreover, based on the direction he was looking at, he
seemed to be angry at something in her direction….
“Serenity, I’m talking to you. Did you hear what I say?” Lisa’s voice resounded in Serenity’s ears,
causing her to come back to

“What did you say?” Serenity turned to look
at her friend and asked.
“I asked, did the doctor say how long your hands would tale to heal?” asked Lisa.
“About a week. After that, I’ll have to wait for the skin to slowly heal,” answered Serenity. When she
glanced in the direction of the strange man again, the car was no longer there
“What are you looking at?” Lisa followed her friend’s gaze, “Is there anything over there?”
“Nothing,” Serenity smiled. Just now… she must have been too sensitive. Even if that man was looking
angrily in their direction, it did not mean that he was looking at them!
“By the way, are you staying with Jackson Valor currently? What’s going on?” asked Lisa. When she
called her best friend last night, it was Jackson Valor who answered the phone. Ever since then, she
had been eagerly waiting to ask Serenity about it.
“Sort of..” replied Serenity.
“Then… does it count as living together?” asked Lisa.
The phrase “lving together” almost made Serenity spit out her drink
“N- No, l’in just staying there for a while. I can move out after my hand heals,” Serenity quickly
explained.
“What do you mean you can? Lisa frowned slightly, “Are you being forced to live with Jackson Valor?”
It made sense that Lisa would think that way. Most of the painful experiences her best friend suffered in
prison were thanks to Jackson Valor. Jackson Valor was probably a trauma Serenity could never get
over.
Moreover, after that, Jackson Valor had deceived Serenity. Serenity hated being deceived.

Serenity pretended to smile nonchalantly. “I’m not exactly.. forced. At least I’m eating well and living
well at his place. Because my hand is injured, staying with him makes things more convenient. He also
gave me a separate room.”
“Hut…” Lisa was still concerned.
However, Serenity cut her off. “Enough about that. Let’s talk about something else. Weren’t you
complaining that your mother was arranging blind dates for you? Have you met anyone you like?”
“Don’t mention it, I’m racking my brain trying to think of a way to get out of it. I’m only 27 years old, but
my mother acts like I’ll never be able to get married. According to her, a fortune teller told her that I
have to get married next year, so she’s urging me to find a suitable man this year. I feel like beating that
fortune teller up,” Lisa huffed indignantly.
“Is there no one who catches your eye all these years?” asked Serenity. They had known each other
for a long time, but she had never seen Lisa be romantically involved with anyone.
“Umm..” Lisa rubled her puse a little unconfortably.
