how to remove double quote and \ from nested value

Question

I have written a code to convert list to json but I have a problem. When I test web method I see that I have " and \ added to the nested object. I want to know how can I remove them using JavaScriptSerializer().

var innerResult (linq query to get list of data).toList()
var serializer = new JavaScriptSerializer();
var serializedResult = serializer.Serialize(innerResult);
result = (from value1 in db.Values
          join value2 in db.Values on value1.ParentId equals value2.RecordId
          join value3 in db.Values on value1.RecordId equals value3.ParentId
          where
              value1.ParentId
              == (from va in db.Values where va.Name == formType select va.RecordId).FirstOrDefault()
          orderby value1.RecordId
          select
              new ItemManagementViewModel
                  {
                      FormType = value2.Name,
                      FormControllerID = value1.RecordId,
                      FormControllerName = value1.Name,
                      values = serializedResult
                  }).ToList();
return result;

public class ItemManagementViewModel 
{
    public string FormType { get; set; }
    public long FormControllerID { get; set; }
    public string FormControllerName { get; set; }

    public string values { get; set; }
}

     "formControllerName": "Conditions",

}

If you don't want extra quotes, you should not serialize inner result twice. I.e. try to use the next code:

  select
      new ItemManagementViewModel
          {
              FormType = value2.Name,
              FormControllerID = value1.RecordId,
              FormControllerName = value1.Name,
              values = innerResult
          }).ToList();

And change the type of 'values' to appropriate one, i.e. List or YourEntities
