    Chapter 469


    Demetria thought of how she had always been highly regarded in the elite circle. She had never been


    treated with such ridicule


    before.


    “I won’t let this slide,” she dered. “I must teach that woman, Serenity Lewis, a lesson! She must’ve


    run to fackson and whispered horrible things about me in his ear! He has never treated me this way


    before!”


    Demetria was determined to push all me on Serenity,


    “That’s enough!” Quinton reminded her. “From now on, don’t ever mess with Serenity Lewis again! Let


    it and here and now!”


    Demetria stared at her husband in disbelief.


    “What?! But that woman is the murderer that killed our daughter!”


    A look of conflicted feelings shed across Quinton’s eyes. He turned away as if deliberately avoiding


    his wife’s eye contact.


    “If you don’t want the whole Hall family to follow Mira into the grave, just do as I say!”

    Demetria seemed to have more to say, but jenny pulled her aside and told her, “ust listen to Dad this


    time, Mam. At the very least, we should leave Serenity alone for now.”


    There was no saying when Serenity’s back would run out and Jackson finally lost his interest in her.


    Demetria seemed obviously reluctant to let the matter go. Did she really have to allow Jackson to p


    her without doing anything about it?!


    Serenity Lewas should have just rotted in prison!


    Back in the Valor Residence living room, Serenity finally came down the staircase. She had been


    standing behind the stairs where she was perfectly concealed. She had seen everything that had just


    happened in the living room and heard every word that was sald


    She knew that Jack had done everything to help her just now. All the humiliation she had suffered this


    morning had gradually dissipated as she listened to the words he had said to defend her.


    The sound of her footsteps made him turn his head quickly toward the staircase. He then slowly


    reached out his hands toward her. His movements were so natural that it seemed he would always


    reach out to help and support her wherever he saw her.


    serenity stared dazedly at the hands that were reaching out for her, but she instinctively reached her


    own hands out to take his. His big hands then fully wrapped around her own hands tightly


    “What are you doinging downstairs?” he asked.


    “1” she bit her lips gently. “I was behind the stairs just now and I saw everything. Thank you. But you


    didn’t have to go against the Hall family just for me, you know.”


    Even she knew that there was a lot of business conducted between the Hall fanally and the Valor


    family. Although the Halls were not nearly as powerful as the Valors, a dispute with them would still


    affect the Valors to some extent.


    “So what if the Valors‘ rtionship with the Halls ispletely nained?” He smiled. “If I can’t manage


    even this little problem and get justice for you over this small matter, I must be the lousiest boyfriend


    ever.”


    As he spoke, he slowly lifted a hand to gently caress the red and swollen spots on Serenity’s face


    “But that one p just now was far from enough,” he said.


    She was taken aback. What else was he going to do? Whom she asked him that question, all she gut


    as an answer from him was,


    soon enough. Also, if you’re ever in any kind of trouble again, just give me a call, understand?”


    “You’ll


    As he gave that order, she could not help pouting as she said, “But if you keep on acting this way, ‘ll


    only make me more and more dependent on you”
