“Okay,” she replied, gently closing her eyes to savor the gentle massaging of his fingers.
“still…” she murmured. “It looked like Lucas really cared about that woman, Jack
In the past, she used to think that Lucas was a playboy, but his persistence in his search for the woman in his
memories truly surprised her. It sounded like the woman he was looking for was a little girl he had met when he
was a boy himself. In that case, how long must he have been searching for her? Ten years? Twenty years?
The kind of determination it took for someone to keep looking for a person was really rare to see.
“He must’ve been looking for her for a long time,” Serenity commented. “Do you think he’ll find her one day?”
“What do you think?” he threw the question back at her. “Do you want him to find that person?
“I hope he will,” she responded. “That way, he’d never mistake me for that person again.”

Mistake? No, Lucas had not mistaken her for someone she was not! But… He would let Lucas continue making even
more mistakes because Serenity could only be his and his alone. He would never let anyone else have her!
“Now that I think about it,” Serenity continued, it he never finds that person, he’d probably keep on finding a
substitute to take her place. That would be tragic, wouldn’t it?”
Serenity slowly opened her eyes and looked straight into Jackson’s eyes, adding, “But no matter how many
substitutes he finds, it wouldn’t mean anything at all it it’s not the actual person he’s looking for, right?
“You’re right,” Jackson smiled gently, “it would be tragic. In that case, I really hope Lucas will find that person saon.”
Over the next few days, Serenity continued to make food deliveries for Clara’s restaurant, and Clara had already
hired a new employee to replace her. Because the newbie had now begun his probation period for a week,
Serenity’s workload had been significantly reduced.
When Yanny found out that Serenity was going to leave them, he kept holding onto Serenity whenever Serenity was
at the restaurant, unwilling to let her out of his sight.
Serenity tousled the boy’s hair and assured him, “But I’ll still be coming back to visit you, Yanny! Besides, if you miss
me in the future, you can always ask Mommy to take you to my place, or you can just call me! You’ve memorized
my phone number really well, haven’t you?”
“But I want to see you every day, Aunt Serenity!”
After a period of training, the boy had now adapted to his cochlear implant very well and made great progress in
his speaking ability. Although he still sounded a bit stiff from time to time, he could speak in long sentences now.
On this point, even other children of the same age who might have started speaking a little late might not speak as
well as he did. It was evident that Yanny had a natural talent for language skills and was indeed a very clever boy.
“You can see me through video calls, then,” Serenity replied with a simile. “If you want to see me in the future, just

video call!”
Just then, Serenity’s phone rang. It was Jackson
“I’ve sent a driver in pick you up,” be informed her. “He’ll be there in fifteen minutes.”
“Okay,” she answered. He had told her yesterday that she would be choosing the style of their wedding rings today,
and she had told Clara sa Parlier.
What surprised her was that when she met up with Jackson at the jewelry store, she was faced with a very special
diamond that totally amazed her.
2/2
It was a diamond that had not been inlaid on a ring yet, but she had seen this diamond before–back when she had
attended an auction abroad with her ex–boyfriend Zeke
This diamond was outstanding in every way, almost without the slightest flaw, and it had a name as well–the Heart
of Serenity!
