Chapter 81
“You’re very light,” replied Jackson. He was telling the truth. Although Serenity was over 160 cm tall,
Jackson estimated that she weighed no more than 45 kg. He would make sure to feed her well from
now on.
She leaned her face against his back. It felt very warm. When was the last time she had been carried
like this? She could onl remember her mother carrying her like this when she was a child.
However, the memory was very fuzzy because it was so long ago.
“Jack, you’re so nice,” she murmured.
“Are you going to say that I’m a nice guy again?” he asked.
“What I’m trying to say is, you’re a really nice little brother. I’m so lucky to have a little brother like you,”

Little brother… His eyes flickered slightly.
When this game started, wasn’t he the one who chose to stay by her side as a younger brother? She
asked him to call her Sis.
But now, it seemed like he no longer wanted her to think of him as just a younger brother. He wanted…
more.
Jackson carried Serenity to the hospital’s main entrance. Not long after, Lisa drove over.
After they got into the car, Lisa started complaining angrily about the things that happened earlier that
day.
Although Jackson already got the rough story from Connor, his face still hardened when he heard Lisa
tell it.
“Joy Shaw was way over the line. Not only did she ask the staff to kick us out, she even tripped
Serenity on purpose. Serenity’s lucky she didn’t get seriously hurt!” Lisa was furious. “Joy Shaw thinks
she can do anything she wants because her family’s powerful!”
“Her family…” Jackson quietly repeated. His tone seemed to carry a hint of mockery. “What’s the big
deal with the Shaw family?”
“Don’t you look down on the Shaw family,” Lisa may dislike them, but she still had to explain the truth to
him, “The Shaw family has a deep foundation and a lot of connections in Solaria. The Shaw Group
belongs to that family, as well as various
other companies.”
Lisa thought Jack might not know about the Shaw family’s background since he was a homeless man,
so she gave him a quick explanation.

that can happen to her is that she has to pay compensation. That’s why she’s not scared at all!”
“Then we won’t sue her,” said Jackson.
“No way! We must make them compensate Serenity for medical expenses and lost salary. Even if the
money is nothing to them, we can’t let them get away scot-free,” said Lisa.
“They won’t. Whoever hurts Sis will pay the price,” Jackson said coldly.
In that instant, a touch of hostility crept into his eyes.
Lisa, who was driving, did not see it, but Serenity, who was sitting in the back seat with him, saw it
Jack suddenly felt like a complete stranger to her, as if he had turned into a completely different
person.
But the next moment, the hostility in his eyes disappeared, and returned to his usual self,
“Sis,” he asked, “What’s wrong?”
“N-Nothing,” she shook her head, telling herself that she must be seeing things.
When they arrived back home, Jackson carried Serenity into the apartment on his back while Lisa
helped her carry the other stuff.
