Serenity continued patting him gently to sleep. She whispered to him softly, “Don’t be afraid, now. No more nightmares, I’m right here.”
Jackson was taken aback. Was she really going to treat him like a baby? NôvelDrama.Org: text © owner.
1. k. Was she reall
Despite what he felt, the lingering fear in his heart started to melt away with each pat. Like a lullaby, her gentle voice brought back the drowsiness.
It seemed that with her next to him, he had nothing to fear….
When he least expected it, Jackson was knocked out cold.
Serenity stopped when she heard the steady rhythm of his breathing “Jack?” she called out gently.
No response. He was fast asleep.
Only then did she let out a sigh of relief. It was only when he had fallen asleep did the knot between his brows went away. The peaceful expression on his face reminded her of an angel.
At this moment, he was the polar opposite of how people perceived him outside.
Or perhaps, he only appeared like an angel to her.
As for the dream she had had about the little boy and the little girl, before she could figure out the truth, she would keep it a secret to avoid arousing his suspicion.
At the very least, she had to find out whether this dream came from listening to her cousin’s story, or was it because of something else?!
It didn’t take long for the media to start covering Lynette’s supposed relationship with Lucas,
Thanks to his influence, no media outlet dared to dig too deep into her background. Even if they found something newsworthy, they knew better than to report it.
Of course, that didn’t stop the masses from speculating that she was his new girlfriend.
There were also many who thought otherwise for a few reasons. Firstly, Lucas had never acknowledged her as his romantic partner, choosing to refer to her as only his friend. Secondly, she was much less attractive compared to the girlfriends he had had in the past.
While she looked passable after dressing up, this was primarily thanks to the makeup artist.
For a while, theories started popping up like mushrooms after the rain.
This only placed more pressure on Lynette. She hoped to become Lucas” girlfriend, but since she had just gone through a divorce, she couldn’t move too quickly to avoid tarnishing his impression of her.
And so, she casually mentioned to him over a meal, “By the way, have you seen the news lately? I’m surprised so many people are asking if I’m your girlfriend or not.”
“I’m sorry if it’s causing you trouble. I’ll clarify our relationship with the journalists again,” replied
“No, I don’t find it troubling at all,” said Lynette hastily. “I’m single right now, and no one’s pursuing me at the moment, so I’m not particularly bothered by it. It’s just…”
She bit her lip liesitantly. “I saw the comments online saying you change partners every year and that you’re always finding a substitute. They even said… that I was just another substitute. Could you
explala what’s going on?”
Lucas stared at her face blankly.
