Chapter 528
Serenity nodded and fell silent. She knew Clara, being a single mother, was someone with a past.
However, she never expected it would turn out to be this.
A woman imprisoned by the father of her own child. Few people could bear that level of humiliation.
Despite what had happened, Clara still managed to open a small restaurant while raising Yanny.
“What’s the matter? Are you feeling sorry for Clara?” asked Jackson.
“I feel like life has been terribly unfair to her,” murmured Serenity in response.
Jackson observed the worried expression on her face. Was she worried about Clara? Or was
something else bothering her mind?

people were occupying her mind. A feeling of jealousy surged in his heart.
Jackson was well aware that Serenity’s worries had nothing to do with romantic love, but the feeling of
jealousy still plagued
him.
Perhaps he cared too much about her emotions. Instead of devoting them to everyone, he wanted her
emotions to be invested
In him alone.
“I wonder if you’d feel sad about me in the future?” asked Jackson out of the blue.
Serenity laughed awkwardly. “Where did this question come from?”
Jackson’s eyes glinted. “I’m just curious. Would you? Or would you not?” He seemed insistent on
hearing her answer.
“If something were to happen to you, of course I’d be sad. This question is completely unnecessary.
That’s why I pray that you’ll stay safe and healthy forever,” replied Serenity.

His bewitching dark eyes gazed at Serenity firmly, making lier heart race. For a moment, she felt a
desire to lose herself in his
eyes.
“Do you love me? Serenity…” he whispered softly. His sweet words made it impossible to hold herself
back. This time, he was talking to her as a man.
As he leaned toward her, Serenity’s gaze slowly swept across his face, Everything about him was
perfect, as if he was an artwork, created for people to gaze at but never to touch.
Yet now, Jackson was so near that she could feel his breath.
“I love you,” said Serenity.
At the start of their relationship, she couldn’t explain what love meant to her. Now, not only did she
understand what it meant, but she could feel herself fall deeper and deeper in love with him.
After Zeke’s betrayal, she thought she could never love someone so deeply again. As it turned out, that
was just an illusion that she had created for herself.
