Chapter 345
He slowly opened his eyes. She really did… come back, just like last time. Even though she was
scared of him, disgusted with lim, maybe even hated him, she still could not bear to see him in pain,
right? At the thought of that, even the pain seemed to
subside a little.
Jackson opened his mouth and swallowed the medicine that Serenity fed him.
She could not help looking at his lips. As expected, she saw teeth marks there. He must have been in
great pain earlier.
“If you keep looking at my lips like this, it’ll make me think that you want to kiss me,” Jackson said.
Serenity suddenly came back to her senses. Her face instantly turned red. “I was just looking at your
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtlips because they’re bleeding, I don’t have any other intentions.”
“Even if…you have other intentions, it’s fine. If it’s you, you can kiss me anytime you want,” he said.
Although his face was still pale and his forehead was drenched in sweat, he could talk normally now
Serenity looked away to avoid eye contact so that she would not blush even harder.
Her eyes fell on the plate on the table. The incense in front of it was still burning, but it was about to
burn out.
“The incense is about to burn out. Do you want to put a new one in? Serenity said. Usually, before the
worship ritual was over, the incense could not stop burning
Seeing the situation here tonight with lit incense and candles as well as food and fruit offerings, this
should be a worship
When Jackson heard that, he tried to stand up, but Serenity quickly held him down and said, “Don’t
move. I’ll do it.”
After she said that, she went to the table, picked up the incense on the shelf and lit it on a candle.
Facing the black and white portrait of the man, she bowed three times before inserting the incense into
the incense burner.
There was surprise in Jackson’s eyes. He looked at her, stunned.
He did not expect her to bow to his father. From this angle, he was looking at her from the side. He
could not see her expression very clearly, but he could feel that she took the three bows seriously.
Did his father…see that? This was the woman he loved. From now on, he would keep her by his side
and make her rely on him like a fish relied on water so that she could never leave him.
He would not repeat his father’s mistake.
After burning the incense, Serenity turned around, only to meet Jackson’s eyes. She immediately felt a
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmlittle embarrassed Uhh. The woman in the portrait, is that your mother?” She tried to change the
subject.
However, she immediately regretted asking that question! Having spent some time with him, she knew
that his mother someone he did not want to talk about. Mentioning his mother now was way too
reckless of her!
he panicked and tried to think of another tople to talk about, but before she could, he already
answered, “Yes.”
She was stunned. She did not expect him to answer.
“Do you think she’s pretty?” he suddenly asked.
Serenity nodded. His mother was indeed pretty. She would leave an impression on anyone who laid
eyes on her. r was
“Yeah, she’s beautiful. In the past, my father loved her so much. He would do whatever she said and
give her everything she wanted,” he said in a soft vodce. “But one day, when the man who could give
her everything she wanted left his home for her, he could not give her status and wealth anymore and,
consequently, lost all value to her.”
