Chapter 417
Jackson continued to drink his coffee leisurely as if nothing out of the ordinary was happening. It even
seemed that he was having a casual chat with Lucas instead of talking about something that night
literally shake the foundation of Solaria.
Likewise, the gleam in Lucas ‘s eyes slowly faded as he picked up his cup of coffee and casually took a
sip.
The tense atmosphere between the two men slowly evaporated. Now, they merely looked like two
friends hanging out at the
restaurant
The sight overwhelmed Clara for a moment, and she was not alone. The customers in the restaurant,

of them were handsome enough that they could easily rival celebrities,
In fact, one of the women there even furtively pulled out her phone to take a photo of the two men, but
just as she almed her phone at Jackson and Locas, before she even had the time to take a picture, her
camera was blocked by a huge hand.
It was Jackson’s bodyguard. He bluntly warned the woman, “My boss doesn’t like his picture taken by a
stranger, so if you insist on taking his picture, I’ll have to ‘invite you to leave.”
The woman was dumbstruck. Was he threatening her?! But as she faced the bodyguard’s stem
countenance and his burly and muscular body, she had to immediately swallow up the words she had
in her mind. She was fully aware that even if she protested, she would only end up humiliating herself
And so, the woman paid the bill and left in despair.
As for the rest of the customers in the restaurant, even if they had any intention to secretly take a
picture of the two men before, it all went up in a puff of smoke now.
Just then, Serenity returned on her scooter. As soon as she entered the restaurant, she saw Jackson
and Lucas sitting at the same table and was instantly taken aback
What… What exactly was going on here? How could these two be here? It looked like they were
drinking coffee together?!
Even if they did want to hang out and have coffee together, she found it hard to believe that they would
choose a place like this to do it
For a while, Serenity stood there with her mind blank, not knowing how to react.
That was until Clara rushed up toward her, pulled her aside, and told her, “Mr. Gomez came looking for
you, Serenity.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmShe did not mention Jackson because the man had not told her his intention of coming here, so she
had no idea why he was there herself.
But before Lucas could even get up, Jackson was already on his feet and heading straight toward
Serenity.
“What are you doing here?” Serenity asked him
“My work at the company is done,” he replied, “so I decided to come over and see you.”
Clara stared at Serenity and Jackson in shock, asking, “Do you… Do you know this gentleman,
Serenity?
“Um, yeah He’s..”
When she got to that point, Serenity suddenly paused and hesitated. She realized that she had no idea
how to introduce Jackson because although they had indeed started dating, she had never had to
disclose their relationship to anyone before.
“What’s wrong?” Jackson turned to Serenity with a faint smile. “Aren’t you going to introduce me to your
boss?”
