Chapter 579
Serenity realized that there were plenty of people who were eager to kick Aria while she was down.
However, she was far from sympathizing with her.
She wasn’t a saint, not to mention the fact that Aria had initially set out to harm her.
“Why don’t you want me to announce that you’re my girlfriend?” asked Jackson. He was planning to
officially introduce Serenity to the public as his girlfriend to avoid any misunderstanding that she was in
a relationship with Lucas.
For some reason, she objected to his plan even though she didn’t intend to hide her past relationship
with him.
“I don’t wanna make a big deal out of this, and I don’t like being on the news.”

of the Internet. When that happened, she was worried that people would flood into the restaurant and
make her work difficult.
Given her previous conviction and the fact that the deceased victim was Mira, Jackson’s fiance, there
were bound to be new conspiracies about her intention.
While Serenity couldn’t care less about these theories, she was concerned that it might affect Jackson.
Before her case was overturned, there were already unsavory speculations about their relationship.
Jackson pondered silently for a moment. “I will protect you. You won’t appear in the headlines as I’ll
send a warning to all the journalists in the city beforehand.”
“Jack, I’m not worried that they might find out about us. Since we are dating, it’s only a matter of time
before the public finds out about our past,” said Serenity. After all, he was the Jackson Valor that every
man on the street knew.
“However, it’s impossible to hide my previous conviction. Anyone can look it up on the database,
whether it’s from the police, the courthouse, or the prison system. I’m worried that if they find out, it
won’t just affect you, but your entire family. After

“I don’t care,” replied Jackson. People could say what they wanted to, but it wouldn’t affect a person
like him one bit.

any interference or malicious remarks from anyone. Serenity hoped that she could stay with him
without tarnishing his reputation.
Jackson’s brows twitched. He lowered his gaze before pulling her into his arms. “I will make sure your
case is overturned, don’t worry about it. Soon, no one will be able to use this case against you.”
He would return her innocence, even if he was 3 years late for that.
Serenity was surprised by his promise. “Soon? Did you find some new evidence?”
“Yeah, we found some clues, but we still need more than what we have. But don’t worry, it’ll be over
soon,” sald Jackson Serenity was overjoyed when she heard that.
“Thank you, Jack”
Her words of gratitude p ricked his heart when he realized that he was the last person she should be
thanking
He could only hope that she never found out the truth. The price he would pay was something he
couldn’t accept.
