Chapter 270
There was not a peep out of Serenity the whole time. She was perfectly still and silent, almost as if lost
in her own inner world until the doctor tried to take the photo albus in her hands. She seemed to came
to her senses suddenly and clurg, tightly to the photo albums, yelling, “No!”
“No one’s taking it away,” Jackson assured her gently, “but the doctor needs to examine your hands.
Give it to me, Sis, and let the doctor take a good look at your hands, okay?”
As soon as Serenity heard him call her sis, she finally looked at him and murmured, “Jack 7”
“Yes,” he replied, “it’s me. Tell me, what happened to you exactly?
Hers trembled, and the tears that had been suppressed all this while gushed straight out as she told
him in a choked–up voice, “It’s burnt! The album with phates of me and my mother! It’s burnt!”
As she spoke, her curly eyelashes seemed to bring forth more tears free her eyes with their every
fluttering movement

He had spent enough time living with Serenity to understand how important her mother was to her.
At that moment, the doctor finally had a chance to examine Serenity’s hands. After seeing them, he
immediately began to treat the scalded area, cleaned the wounds, and bandaged them.
The bruises on the back of her hand had barely even started to heal, yet there were now more wounds
on her hands. All ten fingers of her hands were now wrapped in gauze. All throughout the process,
Serenity remained totally silent, as if she felt no pain at all, but the more she acted this way, the more
unbearable it was for him to see it
Jackson pulled out his handkerchief and wiped away her tears, saying, “Don’t cry…”

powerful in Solaria, capable of making anything happen, but as for the photo album of Serenity and her
mother, he realized that no matter how much money he had, it was not enough to restore it to its
original state.
Right now, all he could do was wipe away her tears…
“It’s a minor burn,” the doctor informed them, ‘but it’s nothing serious, fortunately. You shouldn’t let the
wounds come into contact with water until they heal, and you must apply the medicine every day.”
“Will there be any long–term effects?” Jackson asked.
“The wounds are all skin–deep,” the doctor replied. “No nerves or muscles were affected, though the

remove all scars.”
She raised her head slowly until her gaze fell on his face. There were still heads of tears on her
eyelashes, but the look in her eyes was slowly reparing its rarity and lightness. She stayed silent for a
long time, until at last she said, “I’m sorry. L completely lost my compusure just now.”
That evening, In her most painful moments, she had regarded him as the old “Jack” that she once
knew and cried bitterly in
front of him..
Was it because the pain was too unbearable? Was that the reason why her mind was muddled just
now?
“There’s no reason to apologize,” he told her. “You can always lose your composure without any
hesitation in front of me.”
