Chapter 340
In the past, Jackson would never leave the Valor Residence in the evening on this day no matter what.
De would stay in front of his fathers portrait the whole night to remind himself not to repeat his father’s
mistake.
He would do this every year.
But this evening, things have changed!
Jackson led Serenity out of the hospital.
A black car was at the entrance of the hospital. After getting into the car,

he showed up.
“Scared?” He asked while holding her hand. Even now, her hand was still slightly trembling
Serenity bit her lower lip, then nodded her head. Yes, how can she not be scared? Her fate was
completely left in the bands of others. She felt so powerless
As if a single word from others could determine her life and death.
“I got careless today,” Jackson said, “I thought the old man wouldn’t touch you so quickly. He’s more
anxious than I thought, and I didn’t expect him today of all days.”
She was stumped. “Today… What’s so special about today?”
When she asked this question, his expression changed slightly. He pursed his thin lips and his deep,
beautiful eyes stared right at her, as if he wanted to devour her whole.
The atmosphere in the car suddenly became oppressive.
Serenity uncomfortably tried to pull her hand back, but Jackson Lightened his grip. He simply stared at
her for a while without saying a word, then looked out the window.
Serenity was puzzled. Was it something he could not say?
Just now, when he stared at her, she felt as if she had said something tabou.
The car arrived at the Valor Residence, and Serenity followed Jackson out of the car.
“It’s getting late. Get some rest. The old man has made a move on you today and he already got his
answer, which means he won’t do anything to you again for the time being, so you don’t have to be
scared anymore,” said Jackson. He was the old man’s grandson after all. After thinking about it a little,

Serenity nodded. Jacksun walked Serenity back to the room. After she entered the room, she noticed
that he was not going back to his room next door, but was walking to the stairs on the other side.
He was going back downstairs?
Serenity was surprised.
That night, she lay in bed tossing and turning but unable to fall asleep.
She could not stop thinking of Jackson walking towards the stairs. Where was he going? Why didn’t he
go back to his room? He felt a little different today, for some reason.
She sat up and looked hesitatingly at the dour separating the two rooms.
If she opened the door, she would be able to see if he had gone back to his own room, but…
Stop being so curious! Curiosity kills the cat! Especially when it involved a man like Jackson Valor!
She kept telling herself that, but in the end, she could not help it..
All she saw was darkness. Through the light from her own room, she saw that, sure enough, there was
no one there.
