Chapter 598
He hugged her so tightly that she could hardly breathe.
“I’m not… not…” she said with difficulty.
Just when Serenity thought that she might pass out due to lack of oxygen, a sudden force tore her out
of Lucas‘ arms. The next moment, she heard the sound of a fist hitting someone, followed by a muffled
grunt. She then heard the sound of a heavy
object hitting the ground and chairs colliding with shelves.
Serenity panted heavily. Jackson’s face appeared before her.
Jack was the one who pulled her out of Lucas‘ arms! Serenity stared at Jackson in a bit of a daze,
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtwondering what he was doing there.
Jackson was currently staring at Lucas, whom he had just punched to the ground, with a solemn face.
Lucas was leaning against a shelf. The area around him was in a mess due to the impact of his fall.
Blood slowly trickled down the corner of his mouth, showing that Jackson definitely did not hold back.
“Do you know what you’re doing right now?” Jackson asked furiously. His ice–cold voice was like a
bone–chilling wind. It would send shivers down the spine of anyone who heard him.
However, Lucas looked Jackson right in the eye and replied with a smile, “I know.”
“You know? And you still did it? Lucas, do you want the Gomez family and the Valor family to become
enemies?” Jackson questioned him arrogantly.
Lucas wiped the blood from his mouth and slowly stood back up, “Jackson, you know I’ve always been
looking for someone. Serenity is most likely the person I’m looking for.”
Jackson’s pupils shrunk abruptly and his body stiffened. “What kind of nonsense are you saying?”
Lucas did not answer his question. Instead, he turned to Serenity who was by Jackson’s side and
asked her, “Don’t you remember? You saved a boy years ago while wearing a similar floral dress. You
could have left him behind, but you insisted on carrying him and helping him get to safety! You asked
him to trust you, to trust that you could definitely carry him out of that mountain
Serenity looked at Lucas doubtfully. She did have a similar floral dress when she was a child, but she
had no recollection of what he said at all.
“Enough!” Jackson shouted and pulled Serenity behind him.
Things were quickly moving out of his control. He was caught a little off guard. The person Serenity
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmloved right now might not be Lucas, but…….
“What? Are you scared? Scared that she really might be the person I’m looking for?” said Lucas as he
took a step closer.
Jackson pursed his lips and glared at Lucas with cold eyes.
Lucas was right he was indeed scared!
He was scared of Serenity finding out that she was indeed the person Lucas had been searching for. It
was a truth that he had been hiding from her.
Jackson gripped Serenity’s hand so hard that it was starting to hurt.
He gripped her hand so tightly. His hand… was trembling non–stop, as if it was quietly informing her
that he was panicking.
She never expected that there would come a day when his hand would tremble like this when it was
holding hers.
Serenity took a deep breath and held Jackson’s trembling hand.
