Jennifer immediately chatted with the seller in private.

Jennifer wrote: [Hello, is this medicine really that effective?]

The seller immediately replied in enthusiasm: [Of course, if it doesn’t work, I will compensate you ten times the price!]

Jennifer could not help but smile.

She responded: [Alright, I’ve placed an order. Can you deliver it as soon as possible? I need to take it tonight.]

The seller replied: [If you are in Jeahron, the medicine can be delivered in an hour.]

Jennifer placed the order with satisfaction.

Now, she began to look forward to the “exciting” scene in the evening.

The Garrison Mansion on the outskirt of Jeahron was a manor that had beautiful scenery and exquisite architecture.

At the moment, on the terrace of the manor, a man in a white shirt sat in a wheelchair in an upright posture. He had a noble temperament and delicate eyes.

“Are you really not going to the party held by the Chaser family?” Yvonne Bane sighed and looked at her son helplessly before saying, “Don’t you want to see your future wife?”

Jackson raised his eyes slightly and said calmly, “It’s too early to discuss the marriage.”

“Are you planning to stay single forever?” Yvonne frowned and continued nagging, “The name of the lady from the Chaser family seems to be Jennifer. I heard that she looks very well-behaved. Although she is not a biological daughter of the Chaser family, she has been your fiancée for many years, after all. We can’t abruptly cancel your marriage with her without considering our friendship with them. It’s better to marry her as soon as possible.”

Jackson’s expression was cold. He pursed his thin lips without saying anything.

Yvonne seemed to have thought of something and looked at him subtly. “Could it be that you’re still thinking about Cece?”

Jackson’s eyes darkened abruptly as if he had been stabbed by something.

He stared straight at Yvonne, and his deep eyes seemed to be filled with overwhelming emotion.

Yvonne naturally knew what her son meant by his expression. She asked, “Are you trying to ask me how I know about Cece?” The next moment, Yvonne lowered her eyes, and a trace of darkness flashed across her eyes as if she remembered a sorrowful past. She said, “When you were a child, you had a car accident and were hospitalized. You were lying on the bed in the hospital, unconscious. I was crying so hard that I thought my tears would dry up, and I stayed by your side day and night…”

Yvonne suddenly changed her tone, and she continued teasingly, “Unexpectedly… Your eyes were closed, but you kept calling a person’s name. Instead of calling for your mother, which is me, you were calling for Cece… You kept shouting, which made me feel

heartbroken. I really wanted to wake you up and ask who Cece was. I would try my best to bring her to you.”

00%%%

Yvonne added, “Later on, you were awake. I noticed you were in a bad mood, so I’d forgotten to ask you who Cece was after that…” Now, can you tell me who this Cece is?”

Yvonne smiled and asked tentatively, “Is she your first love or the lover of your dreams?”

Jackson’s slender fingers tightened imperceptibly, causing his sharp knuckles to protrude.

“I can’t find her anymore.”

His eyes narrowed slightly. He voiced out the sentence in a deep voice that was laced with loneliness.

Jackson’s cold eyes were filled with inexplicable and fluctuating emotions.

He had sent people countless times to search for Oneida all around that place. However, in the end, they all failed to find her.

Jackson could not locate her anymore.

He had failed to find his one and only Cece.

Yvonne then said, “Since you can’t find her, why don’t you look ahead?” She did not expect her son, who seemed cold-hearted and indifferent, would be such an infatuated person. She added, “What’s the point of holding on to this Cece? Maybe she’d already gotten married and had children years ago…”

Jackson’s handsome face instantly turned as cold as ice after Yvonne’s words reached his ears. A tinge of sullenness flashed through his eyes.

He thought, “If Cece had gotten married and had children…”
