Chapter 275
âNo one will fire you,â he assured her with full confidence. âJust rest and let your fingers heal. Besides, what do you think you can do at work when you canât even pick anything up with your hands? How are you going to sweep the streets?â
Serenity hung her head low and fell silent. At the moment, with her hands like this, she truly could not do anything at all.
âJust let your hands heal,â said Jackson, and you can do anything you like after that.â
Then, he looked like he suddenly thought of something and asked her, âAre you going to meet Lisa this evening? Why donât you change the date and wait for your hands to get better?â
Anyone who knew Jackson Valor would have been shocked to hear what he had just said. The most mysterious and unfathomable man in Solaria certainly never shown such a level of concern for a woman whose hands were injured!
If it had been anyone else, they could stand before him covered in blood and on the brink of death and he still would show no sign of pity or concer
âNo,â she insisted firmly, âI must go meet her this evening. It sounded like Lasaâs got new information about a witness in my case all those years ago. I must go see her and talk about what sheâs found.â
As she spoke, she failed to notice his change of expression and how his hands, which had been hanging by his sides, were now slowly clenched into balls of fists
âInformation about a witness?â
âMmhmm,â she nodded. âBut I need to ask Lisa about the specifics.â
âSo, youâre determined to find the clues and solve the case yourself?â he asked, raising a hand to brush away a stray strand of hair from her cheek. âI told you before-I can help you overturn the verdict, so thereâs no need for you to run around trying to solve the case when you might end up with nothing at all in the end.â
But youâll only overturn the verdict,â she argued, âand not actually help me find the real culprit in that car crash, right? You wonât help me find out who was the person who implicated me with the crime and slap me with the label of a criminal which I must bear for the rest of my life, will you? Youâre just going to help me overturns the verdict through the lack of concrete proof for my guilt, but then, even if my criminal records are wiped clean, Iâll still be guilty in everyoneâs eyes.â
âIs other peopleâs opinion of you so important?â Jackson asked, frowning
Serenity smiled wryly and replied, âIf itâs about anything else, I wouldâve never concerned myself with what other people think of me, but this crime. I must find out the truth for myself, and I want everyone to know that Iâm not a murderer!â
She did not want people to think of her mother as the woman who gave birth to a daughter that killed someone. She, of all people, knew how much damage mocking words could cause as she had personally experienced it herself.
Jackson stared at Serenity intently for a while and then suddenly smiled.
âOkay, then, but if you ever change your mind and want me to overturn the verdict, just tell me.â
Despite the smile, there was a frightening darkness deep in his eyes.
Serenity spent the whole afternoon carefully picking out the photos in the album one by one. She even painstakingly picked out the photos that were half-burnt, but because her hands were bandaged, the jab was naturally a laborious oive for her.
âlet me do it,â Jackson offered.
Then, with his long, slender fingers, he helped her pull out the photos from the albums. Compared to Iver awkward and bungling movements, his were deft and elegant, even pleasing to the eye.
Hut right now, Serenity was not in the mood to appreciate his gracefulness because all of her attention was focused on each and every photo taken out from the album as she checked each one for how seriously They were damaged.
Meanwhile, Jackson was also trying to picture the memories Serenity had of her ther through the photos.
