Chapter 87
Zeke wanted to make amends with Jackson Valar, but he could not even get the chance to see him, so
all he could do was wait at the main entrance of Serenity’s neighborhood, hoping to run into Jackson.
When he finally saw a Bentley pull up not far
from the entrance and a man coming down from it, he quickly got out of his car to greet the man.
“Mr. Valor, I’m really sorry for what happened before. My sister is young and ignorant. Please forgive
us,” Zeke humbly apologized.
“Forgive you?” Jackson snorted indifferently.
“If you have any requests, feel free to tell me. I’ll agree to anything as long as it’s within my power to do
so.”
Jackson stared coldly at the guy in front of him. In that instant, Zeke felt like his blood was freezing up.
Jackson’s gaze made him feel like he was bring watched by a fierce beast. He did not even dare to

“Actually, I owe you a favor,” Jackson abruptly said.
“A favor?” Zeke was perplexed. He had na idea when he did Jackson Valor a favor.
“How about this- I’ll spare the Shaw family as long as Joy Shaw doesn’t attend your engagement
party,” Jackson said indifferently.
Zeke heard a sigh of relief. If all it would take was his little sister not attending his engagement party, it
was a price he would gladly pay. Even though it would be a bit embarrassing, their family could just
come up with a random excuse to explain her absence. It was a very small price.
“Thank you, Mr. Valor,” Zeke quickly said.
“No need to thank me. I should thank you instead.” Jackson put a hand on Zeke’s shoulder and slowly
leaned over until his mouth was close to Zeke’s ear. Then, in a voice that was only loud enough for the
two of them to hear, he whispered, “Thanks for breaking up with Serenity so cleanly. If you hadn’t, I
probably would have to go through a whole lot more trouble.”
Jackson said that calmly, like he was thanking a friend in a casual conversation.
But Zeke broke out in cold sweat upon hearing that. If he had not broken up with Serenity back then,
would he have become Jackson Valor’s target?
Was that what Jackson Valor meant when he said he owed Zeke a favor?
After Jackson entered the neighborhood, Zeke stood rooted to the spot for a long time, trying to calm
himself down.
Meanwhile, Joy was waiting for her friends in a luxury clubhouse, hoping to cheer herself up. Her elder
brother was too much. He actually blamed her for the bank’s refusal to loan money to them. He said
the Shaw family was facing a crisis because she offended someone she shouldn’t have

She’s just a sanitation worker! As if she had any connections in the bank that would allow her to

While she was thinking of her problems, the dour of the private room was pushed open. However, the

“Who are you people?” asked Joy in alarm.
The men walked straight towards her. One of them said emotionlessly, “Sorry for bothering you, Miss
Show, but can you please verify if the person in this video is you?”
He played a video on his phone. It was surveillance fantage of Joy deliberately extending her foot to
trip Serenity.
Joy was shocked. Didn’t she already send some people to delete all the surveillance footage? Why
