Chapter 10

Author: Gu Lingfei
Serenity went to Liberty’s place.

She opened the door and went inside the house to find her sister was already up. Liberty was busy in the kitchen.

“Liberty.”

“Seren, you’re here.”

Liberty came out of the kitchen and was happy to see her little sister. “Have you eaten? I’m making a pot of pasta. Do you want a plate?”

“I’m good. I had breakfast. Have you started cooking? You don’t have to if you haven’t because I brought you and Sonny breakfast.”

“Not yet. Sonny had a fever last night. I didn’t sleep much the whole night, so I got up late. Your brother-in-law had to get breakfast from the shop. He wasn’t happy about it. He accused me of doing nothing all day and I could’ve made him breakfast since all I did was look after a child.”

Liberty was hurt.

Serenity was furious for her sake. “Why did Sonny have a fever? You should take him to see a doctor later even if the fever’s gone in case it comes back. Seriously. I can’t believe Hank didn’t bother to help and even yelled at you when Sonny was sick.

“Is Hank still insisting on going Dutch after I moved out, Liberty?”

Liberty took a seat on the sofa and unwrapped the food. She dug in and said, “I’ll take Sonny later. He’s still insisting on splitting the expenses. He said that all I do is spend money rather than earn my keep. He mentioned that I have no idea the pressure he’s under. As part of the family, I should contribute to the household expenses.

“I bet his sister taught him that. My sister-in-law can’t stop poking her face into our affairs after we got married. Hank used to be good to me, and his sister ruined that.”

Prior to handing in her resignation letter, Liberty worked her way up to the financial chief position. She was paid handsomely. Liberty gave up a lot for love and marriage but received hate from her in-laws in return.

Liberty only spent her money on the home. The clothes she bought were with Serenity’s money. The shopping only came once in a while, and buying things like cosmetics were less frequent than new clothes.

However, her in-laws would kick up a fuss about Liberty’s spending whenever she bought new clothes and cosmetics. Even if Liberty explained that it was with Serenity’s money, her in-laws would argue the gifted money was a joint asset with her husband, so she had no right to use it for herself.

“Liberty, why don’t you send Sonny to a kindergarten? You can pick up your career again and earn as much as, if not more than your husband.”

Serenity felt sorry for her sister.

While Serenity was living under the same roof with her sister and family, Serenity would take on all the housework to help her sister out. Now that she had moved out, Liberty got more on her plate.

“Hank said to wait until Sonny is three or four before enrolling him in a kindergarten.” Liberty was interested to return to the workplace. If nothing else, the burden of a car loan, mortgage, and elderly care was weighing heavily on the family.”

Serenity frowned as she sensed that Hank was treating Liberty like cr*p, and it was only getting worse. Serenity had to ask, “Do you think my brother-in-law is seeing someone else?”

Startled, Liberty uttered, “I don’t think so. I know how much he’s making. He doesn’t have extra money to keep a mistress.”

“But he’s been increasingly rude to you. You must think about your future. Don’t be a misunderstood stay-at-home mom without an income.”

Liberty fell silent for a moment before stating, “We’ll see. Don’t worry about me, Seren. I’ll be okay. How are you doing? When is your husband coming back from his trip?”

“It’ll be a while. He can be busy since he’s working in a major corporation.”

Liberty inquired about Serenity’s life at the new home in detail. She was able to relax once she was sure her little sister was doing well.

Now that Serenity had spent some time with her nephew, Liberty urged her to get back to the shop.

While riding her e-bike to the bookshop, Serenity reflected on her sister’s life of endless bickering. Distracted, Serenity failed to pay attention to her surroundings and nearly rammed into a car. With her fight-or-flight instincts kicking in, Serenity swerved to the side and narrowly missed the car. At the same time, she hit the brakes.

The car also came to a screeching halt.

Serenity glanced at the car. It was a Roll Royce, a luxury sedan!

Behind the Rolls Royce was a row of identical vehicles. The people in those cars must be the bodyguards of the person in the luxury sedan.

Since Wiltspoon was a metropolis, luxury sedans were not a rare sight.

Serenity made a gesture of apology to the driver before starting her e-bike and slipping away.

There was no way she was going to wait to be yelled at.

The driver turned his head over to the man in black in the backseat. “Mr. Zachary, it’s the missus.”

Zachary’s face fell as he clearly witnessed Serenity almost knocking onto his car. She was obviously distracted. To have an absent mind while riding on a busy road, was she trying to get herself killed?

  • Married at First Sight   Chapter 4768

    River was used to seeing his brothers and sisters-in-law skipping important meetings for the sake of their children. Therefore, he felt Laurent was not responsible enough as a father because he did not prioritize spending time with his child.His brothers and sisters-in-law were equally busy. Each of them had to manage a few large-scale and branch companies simultaneously. They were swamped with work every day, so much so that they might not even have time to take a sip of water.However, they would still make time to accompany their children and even clear out their weekend schedules to focus on family bonding.If their children wanted to go somewhere to play, they would try their best to bring them there and fulfill their children’s wishes. The York family prioritized quality time. River also thought he would learn from them when he became a father. He would spend more time with his children to ensure they would grow up happily. His brothers and sisters-in-law were also neve

    “Hi, Uncle River.”The boy greeted River politely after confirming his identity. He even extended his right hand to shake hands.He had gone to his father’s company before. Laurent would always shake hands with anyone who approached him. Since the boy had seen it many times, he thought it was proper etiquette and tried to shake River’s hand, just like how his father had done before. River did not laugh. He took it seriously and bent over to shake the boy’s hand. Rosalie watched their interaction from the side. She thought, ‘The Lafayette family’s young master may be young, but he’s way more cautious and sensible than his peers. He matured early.’The Meadspring Lafayettes would not have to worry about not having a successor. On the other hand, Rosalie’s family still did not have any young children. Well, she did not blame her grandfather for constantly urging her to get married. He could only be at ease when there was a new generation to carry on the family’s bloodline.“

    River saw the toys and smiled. “As expected, women are more attentive. I didn’t even think of preparing a present for the child.”“Is Mr. Laurent back?”“Yes. I felt bad. I visited abruptly, thinking I’d be content with just meeting Suzy. I didn’t expect her to call Laurent back.”River felt bad for taking up Laurent’s precious time. Laurent was much busier than he was. “Your family has some ties with the Meadspring Lafayettes. It’s only natural that Laurent will host you when you visit. Let’s go. Lead me inside.”Rosalie had discovered that the York family had some connections to the Lafayettes of Meadspring.It was thanks to River that she could have dinner at the Lafayette manor that night. “Don’t run so fast, Master Jayden. Slow down.”Someone was shouting. River and Rosalie instinctively stopped walking. They turned toward the direction from which the voice came and saw a child running toward them. He was sprinting, and two nannies were chasing after him. The nanni

    “But, most likely, I can’t accompany you and Jayden there. I’m too busy with the company and can’t take time off.”Laurent said apologetically, “I’ll make the arrangements. Jane will meet you and Jayden there.”Suzy was sad. “Jayden was hoping you could play with him for a few days. The summer vacation is long. You should try to make some time.“It’s okay if you can’t go to Wiltspoon. I’ll bring Jayden there, and maybe he can make a few friends there.”“I’m sorry, Suzy.”Laurent held his wife’s hand. “I’m too busy and hardly have time to be with you and Jayden.“I blame my dad for retiring too soon. Other people’s fathers retire when they’re eighty, but my dad left the company when he wasn’t even fifty. I had to take over the family and company matters.“He brings my mom to travel and doesn’t even come back home more than twice a year. I think he’s scared that I might make him work at the company.”Laurent complained about his father’s early retirement and was now traveling wit

  • Married at First Sight   Chapter 4764

    Although Laurent and Jane were twins, Jane had been kidnapped when she was six months old. Laurent had grown up lonely. By the time he found her over twenty years later, they had already missed the period when they could grow up together. Since Laurent had a lonely childhood, he did not want Jayden to have the same experience. Therefore, he was already discussing trying for a second baby with his wife. The gender of the second child did not matter. He simply wanted Jayden to have a sibling. River smiled. “It’s only natural to dote on our children.”“Have some fruit, River.”Suzy served River some fruits. She said, “I won’t be serving desserts because we’ll be having dinner soon. I’m scared you won’t be able to eat dinner after having desserts.”River took some fruits. He did not like sweet things anyway. He could eat desserts if they were served to him, but he did not mind if there were not any either.After they chatted for some time, Rosalie finally arrived. When Rive

    Most parents would feel happier receiving compliments about their children than themselves. Laurent grinned. “Your nephews are still young, while mine isn’t. Jayden is four years old and has been attending preschool for two years. He has learned many things.“He’d come back home and tell us that his teacher said they should do things themselves. He started doing what he could on his own and only came to us for help when he couldn’t manage.“He’s playing outside now. I’ll ask him to greet you when he gets tired and comes back.”River smiled. “It’s okay. Jayden can play to his heart’s content. That’s what childhood is all about. In the future, he’ll feel happy whenever he recalls his childhood. There’s no need to register them in too many hobby classes when they’re still in preschool.“Although my sisters-in-law had registered their children in hobby classes, they would have the kids pick one or two of their favorite classes to attend instead of going to too many classes.”“We do
