Chapter 308
Could someone like Jackson really ever find himself in danger? If that happened, the threat would be beyond Serenity’s means. Whether she got on her knees to beg would not matter.
She could get on her knees and beg until she broke her legs, but it would not benefit a man like him.
The light in his eyes dimmed at her silence. He was silent as he restarted the engine and drove away.
At this moment, Serenity found the stinging silence in the car unusually oppressive.

Serenity went to see Lisa the next day. The two met up and got a table in a restaurant near Lisa’s house.
Seeing Lisa’s swollen eyes, Serenity reckoned Lisa had probably not slept well last night.
“What happened after you got home yesterday?” Serenity asked.
“Don’t even talk about it. My parents were starting to prepare a ransom amount. They almost punished me when they saw me back,” Lisa grumbled.
Serenity looked puzzled. “What? You didn’t tell them about Terry?”
“Uh.. I told them a friend I hadn’t seen in a while pulled a prank on me. I claimed I forgot to tell them and unintentionally made them worried,” Lisa explained. She did not dare to tell her parents the truth.
Her parents did not know about her vacation fling oversea. If they knew, they would not stop at merely lecturing her. Her father would probably beat her with a rolling pin.
“What’s going on with you and Terry? Why did he take you away like that yesterday? Serenity then asked the biggest question on her mind.
When Serenity had seen Terry last night, she remembered seeing him before. Serenity had seen him through the glass window when eating in the restaurant with Lisa. ConTEent bel0ngs to Nôv(e)lD/rama(.)Org .
That meant Terry had been looking at Lisa!
Lisa flushed a little. There seemed to be some unspeakable problems.
“If you’re not comfortable talking about it…”
“Hey, it’s not about that.” Lisa then told Serenity about what had happened back then. “After that, I got your call and went back home. I thought he was open–minded because he had grown up abroad. I thought he would not care, you know, no strings attached, but who knew… Well, he seems to regard me as a woman who had dumped him.”
Lisa felt a little embarrassed sharing this.
Terry had made Lisa listen to his long accusation yesterday. After hearing how the woman had hurt Terry, Lisa would have dismissed the woman in the story as a sc*mbag, but she was the woman in the story.
How could she manipulate a passionate and innocent man with sweet words? How could she devour him and leave without a word?
Reversing their roles, her actions would be the same as those despicable male characters in TV shows!
Serenity was dumbfounded hearing about Lisa’s past with Terry. From what she had heard from Jackson, Terry White was not just any man. He was scheining and well–connected, but it turned out that Lisa had….
Who would believe this?
“So, he has been looking for you all these years?” Serenity asked.
“M–Maybe.” Lisa said awkwardly.
“We got you out of his place yesterday, but I don’t think Terry will let it go.” Serenity was worried. “What do you plan to do
with him?”

Lisa scratched her head in distress. “I don’t know either. Let’s take one step at a tirne,”
Speaking of which, Lisa’s phone was still with Terry. She would have to buy a new phone later and get her phone number back by reporting her ‘lost‘ phone.
