    Chapter 24


    Maybe he was overthinking it!


    Seeing that Serenity was busy with work, Peter shrugged it off and said, “I’ll stop bothering you, then.


    See youter.”


    After Peter left, Jack held Serenity’s chin with his fingers and turned her face to him. “I don’t like you


    looking at other men like that.”


    Serenityughed. “You’re thinking too much. I don’t have any feelings for him.”


    “Does he have any feelings for you?” he asked.


    She did not know what to say.


    “He’s that co-worker who has a crush on you, isn’t he?” he asked.


    “Yeah. I already asked X to tell him no. I didn’t think he woulde look for me.”


    “He’s not good enough for you. If you don’t like him, you should have rejected him more directly,” said


    Jack.


    Serenityughed. “You think too highly of me. I’m the one who’s not good enough for him. He has a


    house, a car, and a stable job. A lot of women in the Sanitation Office are interested in him.”


    “My sister deserves better,” said Jack. His voice contained a possessiveness that even he was


    unaware


    1. of.


    After Serenity finished cleaning the road, she packed up the tools and was about to bring them back to


    the Sanitation Office when Janice suddenly rushed over and said to Serenity, “Serenity, you have to


    forgive me, I beg you. I can’t lose my job. It’s very important to me! Please, talk to my boss and tell him


    that you’ve forgiven me so that he won’t dismiss me!”


    After pondering about it, Janice came to the conclusion that the person she had offended was most


    likely Serenity.


    Serenity looked at Janice and said, “I think you’re asking the wrong person here. I have nothing to do


    with your


    dismissal. I can’t even see your boss even if I wanted to.”


    “Impossible!” Janice said sharply, “You’re the only person I’ve offendedtely. Maybe Zeke Shaw felt


    bad for you after he saw you in that condition the other day and took revenge for you?” After thinking


    long and hard about it, this was the only possibility Janice could think of.


    Serenity finally understood why Janice hade to her to beg for forgiveness. Zeke Shaw?… No, he


    probably did not even feel an ounce of pity for her!


    “I don’t know what you’re talking about. If you think it was Zeke Shaw who made you lose your job,


    then the person you should talk to is him,” said Serenity coldly. She then grabbed Jack’s hand and


    walked past Janice.


    Janice tried to chase after her, but when Jack turned back and gave her a casual nce, she stopped


    in


    her tracks.


    That look scared her. She felt like, if she were to keep pestering Serenity, something really bad would


    happen to her.


    ‘What… is going on?’ The man’s fringe covered half his face so she could not see what he looked like,


    but his eyes struck fear in her heart. Was he Serenity’s sugar baby?


    Also, did Serenity have friends in high ces? If so, who could it be? Was it Zeke Shaw? Or was it


    someone else?
