“I like it.” Jackson smiled and put down the logo he was holding. “Sis, I’ll buy you a thousand sweaters in the future so that you can wear them anytime you want, okay?”
“That’s too many. I can’t wear them all,” Serenity chuckled and said, “Oh, right. I have to measure your hand.”
She grabbed his hand and started to measure it with a roll of measuring tape.
Jackson frowned slightly. He could feel how cold her hand was through the skin contact. “Stop knitting. Your hands are so cold,” he said.
“It’s fine. Hey, don’t move your hand, or I won’t get the right measurement,” she muttered. She pulled his hand back and once again positioned his fingers so that she could get the measurements she wanted. “We’re indoor, so it’s not that cold. Sweeping the road late at night or early in the morning, now that’s cold. Even in gloves, my hands would sometimes po completely numb from the cold.”
A layer of mist swept across Jackson’s eyes as if to cover up the guill in them. Actually… he could easily help her get away from this lifestyle so that she did not have to do this kind of hard labor anymore.
Perhaps, at first, he stayed by her side and called her Sis because he thought it was fun, but now that he felt differently about her and intended to take her under his wing, there was naturally no need for her to do this kind of hand labor anymore
“Okay, done.” After getting the measurements, she lowered her head and resumed her knitting. However, because her fingers had been injured before, they were not that nimble, so her knitting was
rather slow.
“Sis, Zeke Shaw and Janet Hall got engaged today,” he suddenly said, “On my way back, I passed by the hotel where they’re holding the engagement party. There were still a lot of people there.”
“I know, I saw it on the Internet. The place was crowded,” she said. Her voice did not sound any different.
“Are you sad?” He looked up slightly, trying to observe her reaction.
“Sad?” Her hand paused, as if she was surprised.
“If you had not broken up with Zeke Shaw, all of this would have been yours, including the grand engagement party,” he said.
“Even if the car accident didn’t happen, all of this would not have been mine. The Shaw family would never truly accept me. 1 would have broken up with Zeke Shaw sooner or later,” Serenity was honest with herself.
Every time she visited the Shaw family in the past, she tried so hard to please Zeke’s parents and his sister, hoping to be accepted as a part of the Shaw family.
And the result? She was treated as a joke. Once, at a party, Joy Shaw even mocked her for getting ideas above her station.
Even after being insulted like that, she still forced a smile in order to ease the mood. Thinking back on it now, she should not
have bothered
The car accident merely opened her eyes to reality.Please check at N/ôvel(D)rama.Org.
Jackson smiled as if he was satisfied with Serenity’s answer. “My sister deserves better! Zeke Shaw is nothing.”
“Yeals. If Jenny Hall likes that kind of man, she can have him,” Serenity smiled too.
“Did you see any other interesting news?” he asked casually.
“Yeah, I saw a picture of Jackson Valor’s back,” said Serenity, “That guy is so mysterious. It’s hard to find a picture of him online. Even a picture of his back that someone posted earlier pot deleted not long after.”
