Chapter 389


    Chapter 389


    Perhaps there was more to the story than a simple car ident. Lucas pondered in silence and


    laughed to himself. The only fatality from the car ident was Mira Hall, Jackson’s ncee. Yet,


    Serenity and Jackson were dating today.


    If it really were a plot to remove Mira from the picture, then Jackson would have investigated the


    matter. Why was he being so worked up about it?


    It’s just that…


    “When did Serenity start working at your shop?” asked Lucas not of the blue.


    “Huh?” Even ra was surprised by his question. After a moment, she answered, “I guess about half a


    month ago? She’s helping us with order deliveries ”


    Belonging to N?velDrama.Org.


    “How is she as a worker?” inquired Luca


    “She’s pretty good. Serenity’s a diligent worker and rarely messes up our orders. I’ve never heard her


    comin about being tired…”


    As ra spake about Serenity, Lucas propped up his face and wore an intrigued expression. His lips


    were curled into a smile, and there was a renewed gentle look on his facepared to before.


    This caught ra by surprise. Could it be that Lucas was… but how was this possible!? Being the


    prince of the showbiz industry, he was constantly surrounded by all sorts of beautifuldies.


    Serenity, on the other hand, was a in Jane who rarely wore makeup or dressed up for work. Her


    hands were rough and


    calloused, which indicated the sort of work she was typically engaged with


    These two people were from seemingly different worlds. If she hadn’t seen them talking in a small


    restaurant, who would have thought Lucas was acquainted with Serenity?


    After ra answered his question about Serenity working at her store, Lucas shifted his attention back


    to her. “You’re saying she had juste out of prison when she applied to work at your shop? Why did


    you ept her application? Aren’t you afraid that she’ll cause trouble, given her background?”


    ra shed a bitter smile at him. “I guess it’s because I was in the same position as her, so I could


    empathize with her.”


    cing herself in Serenity’s shoes, she could tell that she desperately needed a job.


    “Empathy huh…”


    Lucas murmured to himself. After a moment, he turned to ra and said, “Alright, I’ll help you. At the


    very least, I won’t tell Wilson that I saw you. Even so, I can’t guarantee someone else won’t tell him


    about it.”


    For ra, this promise was more than enough.


    “Thank you, Mr. Gomez. Thank you,.” ra thanked him repeatedly. Her intuizzon told her that


    “empathy” was what convinced the prince of the showbiz industry to help her.


    However, it sepiped to confirm that Mr. Gomez really had feelings for. There was a hint of worry in


    ra’s eyes. She wondered if this would turn out to be good or detrimental for Serenity.


    After all, she was in this exact position before. From the time they spent together, ra started to view


    Serenity as more than a mere employee. She was a friend.


    Perhaps her fare would change if she involved herself further with Lucas. Whether she would be happy


    in the future was… still hard to say.


    Around noon, Grayson received a call from thendlord of the room he was renting. He was informed


    that someone had entered the ce, which shocked him. With an anxious voice, he asked, “Who was


    it? I’m a tenant here! How could you open the door without asking me first?!”


    2/2


    Thendlord responded angrily. “I can’t believe your audacity! I allowed you to rent this ce for


    yourself, not to store a dead person’s ashes! Thanks to you, the police investigated my ce and


    they’re now demanding me to renovate it because of regtions! I’ll have you know, you won’t be


    getting your deposit back Not a single cent!”
