Chapter 676
Chapter 676
When Serenity suddenly opened her eyes, she realized that she had been dreaming about the little boy
and little girl again, but this time, she had woken up as soon as the boy fell to the ground!
She looked up, and her eyes met with Jackson’s familiar pair of eyes, but in that instant, his eyes
looked dark and gloomy, like a deep bottomless sea
“Were you dreaming just now?” he asked softly, but his voice sounded so distant.
“Yeah,” she nodded. She nced at the clock on the wall and discovered that it was already two in the
morning. “Did I wake you up?”
“No,” he replied. “I couldn’t go to sleep just now. What were you dreaming about? You look so pale
Serenity was about to answer him, but she suddenly realized at thest moment that she had no idea
what to say. Should she tell him about the girl and the boy in her dreams, and that she thought that the
boy was probably Lucas Gomez?
Jackson had always hated the fact that Lucas always mistook Serenity for a girl he was looking for, and
in fact, even she still could not wrap her head around the reason why she would dream about all these
things… Could it really be because Lte had told her about saving Lucas when they were little?
Could that really be the reason why she had been having these dreams? But then why was she the
little girl in the dreams herself?!
“It’s nothing.” she gently shook her head. “Just an insignificant dream that meant nothing in particr”
Just an insignificant dream?! Jackson’s eyshes trembled a little as he stated, “Your forehead is
covered in sweat.”
As he spoke, he reached out his hand to touch her forehead.

It was then that Serenity noticed how damp her forehead was and how even her palms and her back
were soaked in sweat.

But in the next moment, she noticed Jackson’s hand stop before it touched her forehead and no longer
moved any closer to her.
“What’s wrong?” she asked, startled.
By that point, Jackson’s face seemed to be contorted with pain. He seemed to struggle as he tried to
curl up his fingers and withdraw his hand away from her. Serenity grabbed it suddenly and discovered
that it was trembling.
“Why is your hand shaking?” she asked, but then immediately discovered that his hand was not the
only part of his body that was shaking–his whole body was.
In a panic, she asked him, “Jack, what’s wrong?! You’re shaking like a leaf!”
“It’s nothing,” he replied, taking a breath. “I’ll be fine after a while.”
“I’m calling the driver to take you to the hospital now!”
Still worried sick about Jackson, she quickly picked up her phone to call the driver who was also
staying in the Valor Residence, but before she could dial the number, he suddenly hugged her from
behind.
He wrapped both his arms tightly around her body and burled his face deep in the crook of her neck.
His warm breath enveloped her neck, each breath so heavy that she could even feel its weight on her
shankler.
“Let go of me, Jark. I’ll take you to the hospital, so you..”
“I’m really fine,” bemured. “I don’t need to go to the hospital. I just need to stay this way for a while…
hugging you like this.. then I’ll be fine.”
Serenity’s face was full of doubts, but e still let him have his way and stayed in that position without
moving, letting him continue to hug her.
But the squeeze of the arms around her was beginning to get tighter and tighter, and along with the
violent shaking, his embrace was starting to put her in a lot of pain.
“Ouch!” she gasped.
His body stiffened, then with a hoarse apologetic voice, he murmured, “I’m surry. Am I hurting you?
Can you endure it for a while? Please just let me hug you a little longer.”
He thought that perhaps the only way he could gradually calm himself down from the intense panic he
was feeling just now was to hold her close to him like this for a while, to make sure that she stayed
here by his side and not leave him.
