Beep, beep.

Upon hearing the sounds of car horns, Camryn quickly got up. At that instant, she had no idea which direction she should walk.

Judging from the continuous honks, it was almost time for school hours to end.

Camryn walked directly to the right.

A honk rang out again.

Did she walk in the wrong direction?

She hesitated for a moment before she turned around and walked back.

Callum had no choice but to get out of the car. He strode toward Camryn and reached out to grip her wrist. Camryn instinctively struggled, but after sensing the cologne on him, she stopped struggling.

Callum directly stuffed her into his car. He even looked back and helped her pick up her gifts and white cane. He crammed the things into his car and placed them beside her.

Ring, ring…

Callum’s phone rang.

He parked his car by the roadside first to avoid blocking the parents who came to fetch their children from school.

Only after parking his car did he answer his sister-in-law’s call.

    In the evening, parents came to pick up their kids after school. Following the usual rush hour in the bookstore, Serenity headed to her sister’s house for dinner, whereas Jasmine went on a date with Josh. The bookstore would not operate at night.Serenity bought two bags of fruits for her sister.Serenity and Liberty still got along the same way as before. It did not change just because Serenity had become Zachary’s wife.Serenity had the key to her sister’s rented house. She straight away unlocked the door with the key. She pushed open the door, only to see a girl. To be specific, it was Sonny. Sonny was walking around the house in a pretty dress, looking delighted.“Sonny?”Serenity entered the house and shut the door. While laughing, she asked her nephew, “Why are you wearing a dress?”“Aunt Ser.”Sonny scampered over and showed off his dress. “Aunt Ser, do I look good in it?”Serenity placed the two bags of fruits on the coffee table. She carried her nephew and said with a

    Thinking about it, Duncan had a net worth of hundreds of millions. Everything he bought was of good quality and expensive. It was normal that he did not know how to ask for a discount. Liberty did not voice her thoughts. Duncan’s spending habits had nothing to do with her. She was simply his tenant. “Aunt Ser, when will I have a little sister?” Sonny asked innocently. Serenity served food for her nephew. “I don’t know either. Even if I got pregnant, what if it’s a little cousin brother?”She had been discussing with Zachary how the York family had always given birth to sons.She suspected the York family was not fated to have daughters. Sonny gave it some thought and said, “Aunt Ser, I want a little sister. I don’t want a cousin brother.”“Why don’t you want a little cousin brother?”“A cousin brother can’t wear skirts, just like me.” Serenity burst out laughing. When she saw her sister eating like a bird and not eating meat, she said, “Liberty, you’ve been waking up

    Sonny was happy to see Zachary. His tiny body leaned toward Zachary. Zachary quickly put down the items in his hand to carry the child. Serenity bent over to pick up the two bags of fruits and a carton of milk he had bought. She said with a smile, “Why are you here? Didn’t you say you had a business engagement? I bought two bags of fruits for my sister, and now you too. We even bought the same types of fruits.”Zachary carried Sonny into the house. “That’s because our hearts are linked. Something came up, so my client can’t come over. Tonight’s schedule was canceled, so I rushed over to have a meal.” He knew that his beloved wife was at his sister-in-law’s place. That was one of the benefits of having bodyguards following Serenity. He could give Serenity freedom and not ask about her whereabouts during usual days, but he would also be able to find her with just a call if he wanted to know her location. “Liberty,” Zachary greeted. Seeing that her brother-in-law had come, Libe

    Liberty kept quiet.Serenity spoke, “You never took care of Sonny before. He’ll not be able to get used to it and cry if you take him to your place. If you want to visit Sonny, you can come over every day during the daytime and play with him.” Mr. Brown said embarrassedly, “Serenity, we didn’t take care of Sonny before, so we’re trying to make up for it now. We’re old and bored at home. If we help your sister to take care of Sonny, she’ll be able to focus on earning money too.”He asked the child in his arms next, “Sonny, do you want to follow Granddad and Grandmom home?”Sonny asked, “Is Mom coming?”Mr. Brown was stunned. He replied, “Your mom isn’t going, but your dad is in Granddad and Grandmom’s home. Sonny, follow us back and stay with us, okay? That way, your mom won’t be tired as well.”Sonny twisted and turned to get down. He ran back to the table, climbed onto his chair, and sat down. “I want to eat. If Mom isn’t going, I won’t go too. I want Mom!”Mr. and Mrs. Brown

    In Mrs. Brown’s words, her son would not be hers if she returned to her old home. Her son would be under Jessica’s complete control. Besides, Hank and Jessica had not held their wedding yet. Jessica said only to hold the wedding after their house renovation was done. She would appear more presentable that way. They were living in a rented house. Jessica’s family would not even have a place to stay if they were to have a wedding before that. If Mr. and Mrs. Brown could take care of Sonny, they would not be as bored as they were now and could nurture their relationship with Sonny. After all, Sonny was the Brown family’s only hope of continuing the family line. Jessica was not getting pregnant. They did not even know whether she was fertile or not. Liberty had vegetarian food. She finished her meal in no time. Seeing her former in-laws whispering to each other, she walked over and took the four bags of fruits her sister and brother-in-law brought to the kitchen. A few minutes

    After Serenity and Zachary were done eating, he said to his wife, “Seren, bring Sonny and sit over there. I’ll collect the dishes.”Zachary would do chores at home, so Serenity was used to it. Since Zachary told her to bring Sonny to sit on the sofa, she carried Sonny over and sat beside her sister. After she was seated, three people looked at her. Her sister and her sister’s former in-laws were staring at her. Serenity was puzzled. “Liberty, why are you guys looking at me like that? Is there food stuck on my face?”She touched her face, but there was nothing on it. “Serenity, how can you let Mr. York clean up the dishes and do household chores?” Mrs. Brown scolded Serenity. “When a man returns home after working outside for the entire day, you should take care of him properly as his wife. Men will like returning home if you let them feel the warmth of family.”Serenity understood why the three of them stared at her. She said, “My sister took good care of your son in the

    Sonny was Mr. and Mrs. Brown’s true grandson. When they returned to their rented house, they saw their son and daughter-in-law watching TV. Their expressions did not look good. “Dad, Mom, didn’t you pick Sonny up?”Hank stood up and turned toward his parents. He asked that question when he did not see his son. Jessica walked over too. She said, “I organized the smaller room and decorated it into a kid’s room. I bought a lot of toys for Sonny too. Why didn’t you pick him up?”Jessica had received a lock of hair and a note from an unknown woman. On it was written that the hair belonged to her mother. It also asked her to carry out the plan as soon as possible and bring Sonny to crowded places like the zoo or a children’s park. If she did not follow that woman’s instructions, the next item sent to her would be two of her mother’s fingers. Jessica was terrified. She counted on her in-laws to bring Sonny back, but they failed. How could she put her plan into action?Mr. and

    Jessica pouted and did not say anything else. She turned around, went back to her room, and slammed the door hard. “Darling, darling.”Hank called her twice. Mrs. Brown said to her son, “Leave her alone. She just doesn’t want you going on an outing with Liberty. It’s not like you’re going out with Liberty alone. We’re all coming along, but she still chooses to be jealous.“Did she forget that she snatched you from Liberty?”Mrs. Brown disliked Jessica a lot. She used to think that her son was capable. At this moment, she disdained Jessica for being a homewrecker. The Brown family decided to pick up Sonny and Liberty to go to the zoo tomorrow afternoon. The weather was neither too cold nor hot—just lovely for an outing. On the other hand, Serenity and her husband returned home after lingering in her sister’s house for a while. On the way back, she told Zachary, “In the past, the Brown family said they loved Sonny, but those were just empty words. They never lent a hand. M

    “A baby’s face changes almost every day. We’ll only know who he takes after when he’s a little older.”Serenity agreed. “I should call Elisa and share this news with her.”Jasmine probably did not have time to tell her friends about her newborn. Serenity also forgot to inform Elisa because she was too worried about Jasmine. Zachary told her to call Elisa only after they were inside the car. There were too many people in the hospital. Serenity held back her excitement and immediately called Elisa when she got in the car. Elisa was extremely busy at the company. She was the only one who could manage their joint company at that moment because Serenity and Jasmine were pregnant. Even if they wanted to return to the company to work, Elisa would not allow them. Rest was of utmost importance for pregnant women. Elisa was unmarried and not pregnant. She did not mind being busier. She only picked up Serenity’s call after some time.“Seren.”Elisa held the phone in her left h

    “All that matters is that you’re okay, honey. Let’s not have more children. We’ll just have this one son.”Josh spoke while holding Jasmine’s hand.Women had to experience immense pain when giving birth. It came with many risks as well. Josh had heard other people saying that a woman usually had one foot in the grave during childbirth.He was genuinely shocked after accompanying Jasmine through her labor. He had been terrified and worried that something would happen to Jasmine.Luckily, everything ended well. Jasmine and their son were safe. However, Josh did not want to experience something like that again. Having one child was enough. There was no need for a second or third child. The Buchams were a big family anyway. He did not have to bear the responsibility of expanding the family alone.“Okay. We shall not have another baby.”Although Jasmine was brimming with motherly love and recovery from a vaginal delivery was quicker, she still thought childbirth was too

    It was not just Camila. The rest of the people there also had the same thought. Josh and Jasmine had a great relationship. If something happened to Jasmine, Josh would be devastated and lose all hope of living.“Congratulations. The mother has given birth to a boy safely. The baby boy is six pounds and three ounces.”The people who brought Josh out were the anesthetist and nurse.The nurse instinctively reported the good news when she saw the crowd.Then, she explained, “The father probably fainted from shock after the baby was born. Come over and help bring him to the side to rest. The mother won’t be out that quickly.”Upon hearing her words, everyone’s mood brightened up.Camila, whose legs felt weak just now, was immediately filled with strength and stood up. Without Drake's help, she went to the nurse and asked, “Does the baby need to be in the incubator since he was born prematurely?”The nurse replied, “We’ll put the baby in the incubator and observe him for a while. If

    Zachary was also worried that Serenity would go into premature labor out of shock. He also persuaded her to go for her checkup in a gentle voice. They could not do anything but wait anyway.Serenity finally decided to conduct her prenatal checkup first. Zachary accompanied her. Just moments after they left, the door to the delivery suite opened. A nurse stood there and shouted, “Is Jasmine Sox’s husband here?”“Yes. I’m her husband,” replied Josh quickly. He dashed to the nurse. “You must save Jas, doctor. Save the mother no matter what.”His family members behind him also echoed, “That’s right. No matter what happens, you have to save Jasmine.”The nurse said, “The mother is fine. It’s just that she wants her husband to accompany her as she’s in a lot of pain.”Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.Josh was about to rush inside but was stopped by the nurse.She asked him to change his clothes before taking him inside the delivery suite.Jasmine was wailing in pain. When

    With advanced medical technology, a premature baby could still be healthy if taken good care of in the incubator. Serenity said, “Jasmine should be at thirty-five weeks. I just don’t understand why she would suddenly go into labor. Did she fall at home?“Or did she eat something that made her go into labor?”Zachary said, “That’s most likely not the case. Josh’s cousin is Jasmine’s dietician and keeps an eye on her food every day. There’s no way Jasmine would’ve eaten something bad unless she ate it secretly.”Serenity and Zachary suddenly went silent. Pregnant women had weird appetites. Once they had a craving, they could not go unsatisfied. Sometimes, they would even crave fruits that were not in season. Serenity herself was one of them. Once, she woke up in the middle of the night craving mac and cheese. Of course, Zachary, the ever-doting husband, had to satisfy her request. However, where could he find mac and cheese at that hour?Ultimately, he had to drive to the

    People would reap what they had sown. They would have to bear the consequences of their actions. Sometimes, interfering in another person’s fate would backfire. After chatting for some time, Serenity said, “I have to go for my checkup now, Liberty. Let’s talk again when you’re free another day.“By the way, I’ll get someone to bring Sonny to you this weekend. He misses you.”“Okay,” said Liberty. After the call ended, Serenity put her phone into her bag and stood up. She told the man behind the office desk, “It’s almost time, babe. Let’s go.”“Okay. I’m almost done.”Zachary quickly signed and stamped a document before closing it. He walked over with the document in hand. Serenity and Zachary left the office together. He handed the document to his secretary. The secretary did not expect him to pass the document to him personally. He had thought of entering Zachary’s office to request it later. The secretary watched Zachary and Serenity leave. He could not believe

    Lilian often messed with the medicinal herbs her master cultivated, which led to her being chased and scolded by him.It seemed her son had inherited her restless nature.“How’s Sonny been lately?”Liberty had been on edge these past few days because Caroline had been preparing to lure her three brothers into a trap and had not had time to call her son.“Same as usual, but it seems like things have soured again with the Browns.”Serenity added, “Sonny still answers when Hank calls him, but he doesn’t seem happy when his grandparents visit. He doesn’t like going to the Browns’ place, and he doesn’t want to take their calls either.“Hank’s mother and sister are truly incorrigible. They must have been badmouthing you and Duncan in front of Sonny again, which is why he’s upset with them.”During the holidays, Sonny had stayed with the Browns for a few days and started to warm up to them.However, who would have thought that the mother and daughter would start spouting nonsense in f

    Once the baby was born, he would apply the knowledge he had learned over the past few months to care for the baby. He was determined to be a competent and responsible father.Serenity released her arms from around him and shifted to her side.Zachary let go, too, allowing her to turn.Then, she planted countless gentle kisses on his face.“Babe, with you here, the baby and I will be just fine. Don’t worry too much,” Serenity comforted softly after kissing him.“You are my rock. If even you are nervous, I’ll start feeling anxious too, and that won’t be good.”Hearing this, Zachary immediately said, “Seren, don’t worry. I’ll protect both of you. Alright, I won’t be so nervous anymore.”He gently touched her rounded belly again. “Lil’ Bun should be a calm kid. He’s not that mischievous.”He felt that the baby’s movements were not too intense.Serenity wanted to tell him that there were times when the baby kicked more vigorously, but she decided against it, knowing it would only m

    “Just hit the gym a few more times. Lately, you’ve been spending less time there.”Every day after work, he would come home and orbit around her. As a result, he had less time to work out.It was normal to gain a few pounds eating well and exercising less. Did he really think he could eat anything without gaining weight?The reason he could maintain a model-like physique before was that he exercised daily.“Ow.” Serenity suddenly cried out in pain.This startled Zachary so much that he nearly jumped up, asking anxiously, “Is it stomach pain? Are you going into labor? Let’s go to the hospital right away.”He was about to pick her up, but Serenity stopped him by pressing his hand.“Don’t be so nervous, Zachary. It's not time yet. It’s not happening so soon. It’s just the baby kicking again. His kicks are getting stronger.”As she entered the later stages of pregnancy, the little one inside her was growing stronger. Sometimes, a couple of kicks from the baby could actually hurt.
