“If you like it, I like it too,” Jackson said.
“Don’t just consider whether I like it. You should consider if you like it instead. If you don’t, I can always

“No need. This one is perfect. I really do like it,” Jackson assured her.
“Okay. I’ll get it, then,” Serenity said as she confirmed her order.
He looked at her and suddenly asked, “Sis, why are you so good to me?
Serenity would buy him clothes and a phone, yet she was frugal when it came to herself.
“Because you’re my younger brother, so it’s only natural that I treat you well,” Serenity said matter- of-

After William was embarrassed at the club, he returned to a beating from his father, which landed him
in the hospital.
Furthermore, several deals between the Saunders family and Valor Group were affected, which
caused significant losses to the former.
As for the other people who had attended the class reunion that day, they either lost their jobs or their
family ran into trouble.
Everyone complained bitterly.
When Janice exited the Human Resource Department, her legs shook, and she felt as though she
couldn’t steady herself. She had been handed a termination letter stating that she had been fired and to
complete her resignation process within a week.

Under normal circumstances, Amanda would help Janice because the latter was an obedient follower.
However, Amanda had her own troubles to deal with at the moment.
Her own family was in jeopardy.
The bank loan they had negotiated had fallen through suddenly, and the funding for their family
business was on the verge of collapse. Her entire family was desperately trying to find people to borrow
money from.
However, they kept hitting dead ends.
No one dared to lend money to their family, and they were on the verge of bankruptcy!
“I can’t help you. Find someone else!” Amanda said impatiently.
