Chapter 650
Francis said fiercely, “Young man, you were the reason we were in police custody for so long, weren’t apologize and
compensate us immediately, we’ll make you regret it.”
“I haven’t met anyone who dares to demand an apology from me before,” Jackson said lazily.
you? If you don’t
Serenity was puzzled. What’s happening? His uncles were scared of Jackson at first, but after her aunt said those
things, their attitudes changed completely.
Was it because Theresa’s daughter, her cousin Lynette, had found some kind of backer?
But Serenity remembered that her cousin Lynette and her husband were just ironmongers who had a little store in
town. They had average income, about the same as most of the town residents. What kind of backer could she

“Fine. You won’t apologize? Even if you get on your knees and beg; us for forgiveness in the future, we won’t let you
off easy now!” Francis remarked fiercely.
Theresa watched them leisurely as if she was watching a show. “Serenity, listen to my advice. I’m telling you this
out of the kindness of my heart. Tell your boyfriend to apologize to your uncles and compensate them properly. You
know how close your cousin Lynette is with your two uncles. She wouldn’t stand for her uncles getting bullied.”
Only now did Serenity notice that Theresa looked different than she did in the past. Upon closer inspection, her
clothes seemed well-made, so they were probably not cheap. She was also wearing a diamond ring and a large
golden bracelet on her hand. She seemed to have… struck it rich
Theresa continued, “Your cousin Lynette is not the same as before. She’s met someone very powerful. If you make
her mad,
tsk tsk…”
“Someone very powerful?” Jackson chuckled mockingly, “I’d like to see who that is!”
“Who do you think you are? There are some people in this world who you simply can’t offend!” Theresa glared at
Jackson. She would make him regret it later.
Jackson’s eyes narrowed with hostility. If this woman wasn’t related to Serenity and if Serenity’s grandmother had
not just passed away, she would probably be lying on a hospital bed by now!
Serenity took a step forward and said, “Aunt Theresa, you don’t get to decide who we can offend or not. Why didn’t
you ask Uncle Francis and Uncle Desmond to apologize to me for selling me to the Fosters? I don’t think Jack has
anything to apologize for, and I don’t think Uncle Francis and Uncle Desmond were treated unfairly. They were
locked up because they deserved it!”
“You–“Theresa’s face instantly turned red. “What are you saying? Your two uncles are your elders! They only did it

“Really? Why don’t we tell the townsfolk about this and ask them who they think is in the wrong, then?!” retorted
Serenity. Even if she had to get into a major conflict with her relatives today, she would not let them slander Jack
Serenity’s uncles exchanged glances. Their small town was still a village not that long ago, so everybody knew each
other. A few of the townsfolk knew about them marrying Serenity into the Foster family, but it was only discussed in
secret. Anyone could tell who was in the wrong in this matter.
If it became public news, they would be too embarrassed to keep staying in that town!
Theresa was so mad that she raised her hand to slap Serenity.
Because her daughter had met a powerful man, their family had gotten rich overnight, so she had naturally
become more arrogant too. She had potten used to the people around her flattering and groveling down to her.
The way her niece talked to her made her lose face. She wanted to punish her niece for her insolence.
However, before her hand could hit Serenity, it was intercepted by another hand.
d!” Theresa let out a cry of pain. She felt like the bones in her wrist were going to break “You… Let go… Let go…”

The murderous intent in Jackson’s eyes thickened as he glared at Theresa.
