Chapter 177
Serenity followed Jacleson into the private room. After they sat down, Jackson told the manager to bring over some appetizers. “Come, eat something first while we wait for the food. The appetizers here are pretty good,” he said as he picked up a piece of tart and handed it to her. Serenity hesitated for a moment before accepting the tart. She took a few small bites. Jackson placed the menu in front of Serenity. “Take a look and see what you’d like to order” “It’s okay, just order me anything,” said Serenity. Even though she was eating an exquisite-looking tart, it felt tasteless to her. She felt like she was chewing wax Jackson’s eyes narrowed slightly. The air around them instantly felt a bit colder.

The manager held his breath. He was afraid that Jackson might fly into a rage. Luckily, a smile appeared on Jackson’s face. “Okay, I’ll order for you then.” He ordered a few things The manager jotted thern down and exited the room. Once outside, he heaved a sigh of relief. Who would have thought that the emperor of Solaria would show so much care and attention to a woman? But the woman did not look like she appreciated it. “Manager, is it true? Did Jackson Valor really bring a woman to our restaurant? A waitress who liked to gossip asked the manager curiously. “Who’s the woman?” The manager glared at the waitress and rebuked her. “Don’t ask unnecessary questions.

Meanwhile, in the room, Jackson smiled at Serenity and said, “You don’t like these appetizers? I’ll ask them to bring something else.” “No, don’t bother,” said Serenity while looking at the man in front of her who was smiling brightly. She once loved to see that smiling face. It would wash away all her fatigue.
But now, seving that smiling face made her nervous. “Can I leave after I finish the meal?” she asked. His eyes flickered slightly. “Are you that eager to go home?” “I want to go back and rest,” she gave him a random excuse. In truth, she just did not want to spend time with him alone. Every second she spent with him reminded her of the vivid difference between Jack and Jackson Valor. And then… she would start missing Jack terribly, even though she knew full well that Jack was just a he created by Jackson. Valor and had never truly existed Despite that, she would still miss him. “You’re scared of me,” he said as he stared straight at her. It was not a question, but a statement. Her body stiffened. She pursed her red lips, “Why? Because I’m Jackson Valor?” he asked with a gaze that seemed like it could see through her. “Do you still miss Jack?
