Chapter 143
“I can’t refuse, can I?” she asked.
His eyes flickered. The smile on his face faded a little. He slowly straightened up and looked down at her. “No, you can refuse, I can give you the right to refuse, but…”
After a pause, he said with a strange smile, “Are you really going to refuse?”
Serenity felt as if the air around her froze. If she agreed to his proposal, she would indeed gain a lot. It would change her destiny.

If it was any other person saying those things to her, maybe she would actually agree.
But Jackson Valor… She feared this man. He had never harmed her directly, but one word from him was enough to make her life in prison hell.
And even before that, not a single lawyer dared to take her case because the victim who was killed in the car accident was Jackson Valor’s fiancée.
She was also unsure if he had anything to do with all the false evidence against her, as well as the witnesses who all testified that she was drunk driving
The man’s shadow loomed over her like a nightmare the whole time. After learning his true identity. whenever he moved close to her, her body would go stiff.
Whenever he initiated physical contact with her, she would shiver.
How could she possibly stay by his side?!
She took a deep breath to suppress her fear and said, “Yes, I’d like to refuse.”
His face sank and his eyes turned cold. “Are you sure you want to refuse?”
“Yes,” she answered.
He suddenly laughed. “Who would have thought that I, Jackson Valor, would get rejected by a woman? Serenity, think about it. Without my protection, what will happen to you? Even if the Shaws and the Halls stop messing with you, are you gonna be a sanitation worker for the rest of your life?”
