Sometimes, she even could not help wondering if she really was that important a person to Jackson.
They had only knownI each other for half a year, so could his feelings for her really have developed
that far?
But it did not look like he had any reason to lie to her either since she was currently a total nobody,
Lying to her would not benefit him at all, would it?
“Will you, Sis?
His magnetic voice buzzed with undeniable desire as he asked her the same question for the third
time.
“Well if I have the time to do it, I’ll try my best to cook for you ritore often.”
When she regained her composure, she could still feel her heart beating violently in her chest.
“Good,” he said, smiling faintly.
Serenity lowered her head hastily and cleaned up the lunchboxes on the table. Just as she was about

pain.
“What’s wrong?” he asked with urgent contem
“It’s nothing,” she replied. “I just accidentally broke my nail, that’s all. I’ll trim it later.”
Although she usually trimmed her fingernails regularly, she had completely forgotten about it these past
few days, and her nails were now slightly longer than usual.
“Let me see,” he said, taking her hand and then closely examining the nail that she had just chipped.
“Is it this one?”
He then gently held up her left index finger, where there were signs of cracks at the edge of the nail. It
looked like it would be fine with a simple trimming
“Yeah,” she nodded.
“Give me a second,” he said. Then, he picked up his phone and called his secretary, asking. “Do you
have nail clippers here?”
Serenity almost choked on her own saliva when she heard that.
Likewise, there was also someone else who almost choked on her saliva–the secretary. She would
never have expected that she would get a call from the CEO asking her… for nail clippers!
Did Mr. Valor want to trim his nails?! Confused, she entered the office with the nail clippers and was
greeted by the sight of Jackson and Serenity sitting next to each other on the couch.
“Mr. Valor,” she respectfully walked up to Jackson, “here are the nail clippers.”
“Okay,” he said as he was handed the object, “you may go now.”
The secretary then quietly turned and was about to leave the office, but just before she closed the door,
she heard the CEO speak in an impossibly tender voice, “Stay still.”
That voice.. that tone… Could the person speaking really be… Mr. Valor?!
The secretary could not help taking a peek at her boss only to see Jackson Valor very carefully and
gently helping Serenity. trim her nails!
Yes, indeed. Mr. Valor was actually helping a woman trim her nails! In fact, his expressions and voice
were so warm and gentle that he was oozing affection.
The secretary had been working in this company for many years now, but she had never seen her boss

employees about the woman who was a lowly delivery rider and how she was possibly Mr. Valor’s new
girlfriend. All this time, she had always believed that there coukl simply be no truth in such an absurd
piece of gossip.
After all, if she really was Mr. Valor’s new girlfriend, why would Mr. Valor still let her do such a lowly and
menial job?

Yet, when she saw the scene on the couch just now, she started to suspect that those rumors might
actually be true. How could they not be when she had clearly seen how intimate Jackson Valor was
with that woman?! Even if she was not his girlfriend, she must at least be his lover.
The secretary then left the office with mixed feelings.
Meanwhile, Serenity, whose nail was getting clipped, was also sitting there, guiding Jackson with a lot
of mixed feelings
inside her.
“Umm, don’t cut it too deep, but don’t trim too little either. No, a little deeper, and the edges as well…
Yes, and trim this part a little more.
