With her chin raised haughtily, Lynette told Serenity, “I’m not afraid to be blunt with you now–I won’t he and say
that I’m not at all touched to find out that Lucas had been looking for me all these years, and now that I’m
divorced, I have every right to pursue my own happiness. I’m aware that you and Lucas knew each other before,
and I’ve heard that he mistook you for me for a while, but in the end, you’re still not me, aren’t you? So I hope that
you’ll be more careful with your words and behavior from now on. It will be best for everyone that way.”
Lately, Lynette would get dressed up by a professional stylist every day, and with this kind of help, she managed to
look like a celebrity even though her looks had been ordinary at best, and naturally, her self–confidence had soared

She now felt that the reason why she looked so plain and ordinary in the past was simply because she had not
dressed herself up very well. As long as she wore nice clothes and put on good makeup, she would never look any
less attractive than any of Lucas’s previous girlfriends.
She then glared at Serenity and added, “t hope you’ll never get in the way of my happiness, Serenity, otherwise, I
won’t show you any sympathy even if we’re cousins!”
She absolutely would never let anyone get in her way. She had to seize this opportunity and climb to the top!
Another night, another similar dream… This time, she still could not make out the little boy’s face, hut she was
holding his hand as tightly as she could, and the two of them were using up all the strength in their tiny bodies to
climb up.
If they were to stumble and fall from such a steep slope, they knew that they would be crippled or seriously injured
even if the fall did not kill them. The boy’s body trembled as if utterly exhausted, but the girl kept on encouraging
him to keep moving.
“I’ll never let go of you,” the girl assured him. “Just keep going a little longer and we’ll get up there! L. I’ll definitely
get you up there, so don’t give up just yet!”
“You promise you won’t let go of me?” the boy asked timidly.
“I promise,” the girl replied, her voice firm with determination
The tiny figures almost slipped down the hill several times, but eventually, the girl managed to drag the little boy up
to a safer place, where they almost instantly collapsed.
“See?” The little girl grinned. “I told you I’d get you up here!”
The boy was so exhausted that he just lay on the dirt, muttering, “I. I can’t move anymore…
“But you must move!” the girl urged. “We have to go down the hill as quickly as we can or the bad guys will catch

They then struggled laboriously up to their feer, but as soon as the boy stood up, he yelped in pain and fell heavily
to the ground again
“Luke!” The girl rushed up towards him in panic. “What’s wrong? Luke…”
“Luke…”
Serenity let out a low groan even as she was still asleep. Jackson, who was lying beside her, was so shocked that his
pupils shrank as he stared at her lips and heard her mumble the words that made him shudder to the core
“Luke… What’s wrong? Are you okay…?
Jackson pursed his lips till they appeared as a thin line. His whole body started to shake. The shaking got so severe
that no matter how hard he tried to restrain it, he still would not stop shaking. The next moment, a suffocating fear
engulfed his whole being and trapped him inside it, making it hard for him to even breathe!
What exactly… was she dreaming about?! Why would she call out the name Luke?l
