    To this day, they still could not figure out where all the evidence came from, or why the statements of


    the


    witnesses were so consistent.


    “Those people are too much. They know nothing, but they like to stand on moral high ground and


    criticize other people,” Lisa said indignantly.


    “I’m used to it.” Serenity replied calmly.


    When Lisa thought of Serenity’s injuries, she could not help but sigh. She saw Serenity’s injuries when


    she picked her up from prison. There were old and new ones. Serenity never told her what happened in


    prison, but Lisa could more or less guess.


    She must have gone through a lot of hardship.


    “Is Jack really Jackson Valor?” Lisa asked to change the subject.


    “Yeah,” Serenity nodded.


    “But… if he’s Jackson Valor, how could he pretend to be a homeless man and stay with you in this


    small rental house for so long?” That was what Lisa could not figure out. It could not be a fetish of his,


    right?


    that,


    “It’s just a game to him,” Serenity said a little bitterly. She still remembered, when she heard him say


    she found it hard to breathe.


    Jack, who was so good to her, who warmed her hands, who waited for her to have dinner, who quietly


    listened to herints, was just a lie Jackson Valor came up with for a game. How absurd.


    “A game?” Lisa did not understand.


    “Yup. Rich people like him probably find their days boring, so they like to y this kind of game to pass


    the time,” said Serenity.


    Lisa did not know how tofort her best friend. She knew the thing that her best friend hated and


    feared the most was deception. N?velDrama.Org holds ? this.


    What Jackson Valor did was no doubt a heavy blow to her.


    Serenity looked up and smiled at Lisa. “I’m fine. Don’t worry. I have nothing to do with him anymore.


    His game is probably over. I didn’t actually lose anything. I just go back to living alone again.”


    Lisa felt like crying when she saw Serenity’s smile. “Why don’t I move in and live with you?”


    “No need, Lisa. I don’t want you to fall out with your family again because of me,” said Serenity. “I know


    you care about me, but I don’t want to keep feeling guilty towards you. I already owe you so much…”


    “Don’t say that. We’re best friends! Back in school, when our ssmate lost her money, everyone


    thought I stole it except for you. You’re the only one who believed me and even helped me catch the


    thief. Back then, you believed me and helped me, so now, I’ll believe you and help you too!” said Lisa.


    After that incident, Lisa had decided that Serenity and her would be best friends for life!


    “Thank you,” murmured Serenity. She didn’t sacrifice anything to help Lisa back then, but Lisa had to


    sacrifice way too much to help her now.


    “By the way, what do you n to do from now on?” asked Lisa.


    “What else can I do? I continue working at the Sanitation Office,” replied Serenity.


    “But news of you being mobbed outside the hospital is all over the Inte now. Everyone at the


    Sanitation Office will know about what happened three years ago. Your co-workers might…” Lisa


    expressed her concern.
