Chapter 79
He only paid more attention to Serenity than usual because of what the director said.
At that moment, someone else walked into the consulting room and went to Serenity’s side. He said,
“Sis.”
“You’re here,” said Serenity. He arrived faster than she thought.
“Yeah, the heavy traffic delayed me a bit,” said Jackson
“Doctor, how is she? Is she okay? Someone tripped her and she fell several steps down the escalator,”
Lisa asked nervously.
“The fall didn’t hurt her that much. She only had some minor bone fractures on her ankle. She’ll be fine
after resting for a couple of weeks, but…” Dr. House hesitated a little.
“But what?” asked Lisa

The question surprised Serenity. She wasn’t sure how to answer that.
“I don’t mean to pry. It’s just that, your X–ray shows that you suffered a lot of injuries in the last few
years. Some of your old injuries didn’t heal properly, so there might be some complications.”
“Complications?” Serenity frowned. “But I usually feel fine.”
“That’s because you’re still young. When you get older, those complications will slowly show
themselves.”
“What kind of complications are we talking about?” Lisa looked more anxious than Serenity was
“In the future, she might get frequent joint pains. If it becomes serious, she might have difficulty lifting
heavy objects or have difficulty walking.” answered Dr. House.
Serenity kept quiet and looked down at her limbs. She suffered all those old injuries in prison.
Even if her bones were fractured after a beating, she was merely bandaged up and left to heal by
herself. She was grateful enough to get a moment of respite. There was no way she would get the
proper treatment or be given enough time to heal properly.
“Then… can her injuries still be healed? Lisa asked nervously while trembling,
Serenity, however, seemed calm.
“It’s a long–term process. She has to eat more food that contains calcium. She should also avoid using
cold water when she showers or does household chores. Miss Lewis, make sure you rest properly this
time so that your injury doesn’t add to the complications,” said Dr. House.
He prescribed some medicine for her which Lisa went to get. Meanwhile, Jackson helped Lisa walk to a
chair outside the
consulting room.
“Does it hurt?” asked Jackson.
“Actually, it doesn’t hurt that much,” said Serenity, “The injury isn’t that serious. Like the doctor said, I’ll

Two.”
He pursed his lips, “The old injuries the doctor mentioned… are they the injuries you suffered in
prison?”
Serenity feigned a smile and said nonchalantly, “I took some beating in prison, but it’s no big deal.
These old injuries will heal
ake care of them properly from now on.
The more nonchalant she looked, the more upset he became
“Sis, do you hate the people who put you in jail?” he suddenly asked.
She laughed. “Who am I supposed to hate? The judge? The Hall family who sued me? The Shaw
family who refused to help me? Jackson Valor?
