Chapter 1181

Author: Gu Lingfei
“Ahem…”

Grandma May cleared her throat. When Duncan looked at her, she reminded him, “Duncan, Sonny wasn’t scared by the robbers but by you. Look at how he’s struggling to get off you to the ground.”

“Dunc, let go of me,” Sonny asked again.

The little guy’s small face was tense. It was obvious that he was mad.

Dunc was too strong, hence Sonny could not break free from his embrace.

Duncan immediately put Sonny down and squatted as well. He grabbed Sonny’s shoulders instead and said gently, “Sonny, as long as you’re okay, as long as you’re okay.”

Sonny looked at Duncan with his big twinkling eyes.

Dunc treated him quite well.

Sonny could sense Dunc’s sincerity toward him.

Dunc was not teasing him and really liked him.

Sonny lifted his small hand and placed it on the scar on Duncan’s face. He lightly touched it and then retracted his hand as if he was afraid. Seeing as Duncan was not in pain, Sonny reached out his little hand again to touch the scar.

“Dunc, does it h

    Duncan sat on the sofa by himself and asked about what happened. “It feels like their goal was to abduct Sonny.” Duncan’s intuition was the same as Serenity’s and Zachary’s. “Liberty, do you remember what they look like? If you can draw composites of them, I can have someone find them.” Duncan was no longer a part of the underworld, but his legend remained. If he needed help from those people, they would do anything they could to help him as they used to in the past. “They were wearing black masks and sunglasses, so I couldn’t see their appearances. I only know that they’re tall and strong. They’re not like ordinary thugs and are more like bodyguards.” Zachary always had a bunch of bodyguards with him, so Liberty was used to seeing them. They were all tall and powerful, so she felt that the thugs were closer to bodyguards. Duncan’s eyes darkened. He did not comment on what Liberty said and only asked for more details. Soon, it was time to eat. At this time, his mother c

    “You said you’d be back for dinner tonight. Look at the time now. Are you still not coming home?” Mrs. Lewis urged her son, “Hurry up and come home. Lily cooked you some of her best dishes. I tasted them, and they’re delicious. They’re on par with dishes by a five-star hotel chef.” “Mom, I’m not going back for dinner. I’m not done with things yet. You and Ms. Harmon can dine together. Mom, Msr. Harmon is a guest in our house, so don’t make her cook. That’s poor hospitality.” Mrs. Lewis frowned. “You’re not done with things yet? Even if that’s the case, you still have to eat. It’s dark now, so come home to eat first. You can continue to work after dinner.” “Mom, I’ve eaten. I ate outside.” Mrs. Lewis responded, “Lily made a lot of food…” “You’re blessed with delicious food.” Mrs. Lewis choked. She was almost pissed off by her son. Mrs. Lewis tried so hard to create opportunities for her son, but he either avoided them or found excuses to turn them down. Lily was outs

    In any case, Duncan’s future wife had to be well-matched with him in terms of their families’ social status. Mrs. Lewis remarked, “Lily is still the most suitable one, but that brat isn’t giving her a chance at all. If he spends some time with her, they might end up being together. I’m going to York Corporation tomorrow.” Mr. Lewis asked her, “Why are you going there?” “Duncan, Zachary, and Josh are a trio. They’re the closest friends. Zachary and Josh are both taken and have tasted the sweetness of love. I’ll ask them to do the thinking for Duncan and get them to persuade him to give it a shot with Lily. “He might not listen to his parents, but he’ll listen to his good friends. He’s even staying at Zachary’s place now. Dear, send me Zachary’s phone number. I’ll call him later and not wait until tomorrow.” Mrs. Lewis thought about asking Zachary and Josh for help. “Zachary’s bad at talking and is worse than your son. Call Josh instead. Josh knows how to talk, so he’ll be mo

    After Zachary closed the door, Serenity yawned and went back to bed. She lay down and closed her eyes to rest. She would wait for Zachary. She wanted to know how the investigation had been going with him, Clive, and Josh. There was also Duncan. Duncan must have gone to find Zachary after he left Brynfield. Zachary came out of the bathroom after some time. Serenity heard his footsteps and opened her eyes. She saw that he was half-naked and that his hair was still wet with water dripping down. She sat up abruptly and rolled off the bed to fetch a clean towel. She sat the man, who did not dry his hair, in front of the dresser. Following that, she helped dry his hair like a mother and said, “Why did you wash your hair so late at night? It’s fine if you wash it, but you didn’t even dry it with a towel. Men’s hair is only that long, so it’ll dry in no time if you use a dry towel. “Even so, you’re lazy to dry it. Look at how wet the floor is now.” Zachary enjoyed his wife’s

    There were too many people in the zoo, so it was easy to create a disturbance and take the opportunity to kidnap a child. On the other hand, everywhere was being monitored in the busy downtown. It would not be easy for the other party to make a move, and they would not dare to act rashly. Zachary guessed that the other party would at least wait for a few months before acting again. Serenity said after some thought, “You have a point. In that case, I’ll treat the zoo incident as an accident and carry on with my normal life. I’ll slowly lure the snake out of its hole.” Zachary kissed her forehead appreciatively. “My wife is getting smarter.” “Was I dumb before?” “No, you’ve always been smart. I like how smart you look.” He was trying hard to survive. “I think I was too dumb to be fooled by you.” Zachary quickly stopped Serenity from talking further. After a kiss, he gently touched her lips and said in a soft voice, “Honey, go to sleep. It’s late.” “Good night.” A

    “Also, Lucas was also taken away. If Serenity hadn’t asked someone to go after those people, who knows what will happen to your sister now?” Chelsea kneeled and thanked Serenity after her son was lost and recovered. Even Jessica was shocked. A mother could do anything for her child. Hank said, “Didn’t you see Zachary bringing so many people to pick them up? Besides, Mr. Stone also brought a bunch of people. Sonny is being protected by so many people. As a father, I couldn’t even reach him to care about him.” Jessica was speechless. “On the other hand, Lucas was frightened, and so was my sister. Not only my sister but all of us were terrified.” Hank did not have a good relationship with his sister lately, but Lucas was his nephew, after all. If he had not brought up the trip to the zoo, his mother would not have asked his sister to bring Lucas along, and the accident would not have happened. Fortunately, Lucas was saved. Otherwise, Hank would feel guilty about it. A fami

    Jessica responded, “It wasn’t easy for your parents to raise you, but it was easy for mine to raise me? On what basis are you asking me to tolerate them? Your mom never raised me, and she always targets me. She says that I’m not as good as Liberty and keeps comparing me to her. Am I not allowed to be mad? “She always tells me how good Liberty is and how bad I am. She says that I don’t know how to live and always order takeouts instead of cooking at home. I’m usually busy too. She doesn’t cook even though she has nothing to do at home, and she expects me to cook for her when I’m home. Isn’t that bullying? “When I first went to your house, your mom treated me very well, and so did your sister. I only kept talking about Liberty to your sister and mom because I thought she was bad at handling her relationship with your mom. Now, I realize that they’re just too good at acting and managed to fool me as well.” What was more, Jessica got herself into this situation herself. “So much fo

    Jessica took so much effort to snatch Hank away from Liberty and became the missus. She would go on no matter how difficult the road was. Otherwise, she would be seen as a joke by Liberty. Liberty would say that it was karma! “Go to sleep and stop turning and tossing in bed. Lucas isn’t your son. My sister might not even act like you. You’re just his aunt, and yet you’re so frightened that you can’t sleep.” Hank embraced Jessica and yawned. He closed his eyes and said, “I’m so sleepy.” Jessica cursed internally. She was not acting like this because of Lucas. Lucas was a spoiled brat. He ruined a lot of her skincare and makeup, so she hated him very much. She was flustered to see Lucas being carried away, but she was not worried at all. In fact, she was quite pleased. Serenity and her sister were just kind-hearted and generous to be willing to send people to save Lucas. Jessica thought that she would not save Lucas if it were her. It would be best if he was abducted. Che

    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.

    Zachary, afraid that his wife might refuse to spend time with him at his office in the future, emphasized that he was not busy today.He had already cleared his morning schedule because he needed to accompany his beloved wife for her prenatal checkup.His secretary was well aware of Serenity’s checkup dates. Whenever he saw Serenity turn up at the office with his boss, his secretary would quietly adjust his schedule.Sometimes, on the day of the Serenity’s checkup, his secretary would not schedule any appointments for Zachary at all.Even if appointments were scheduled, Zachary would request they be canceled or rescheduled.Now, in Zachary’s eyes, his wife’s matters were the most important.With Alex now able to share the workload, Zachary felt that he, as the eldest of his generation who had shouldered the bulk of the burden for so many years, deserved a break.Plus, there was the elite team the company had trained; if not now, then when would they be put to use?Everyone was

    Tony turned around and left.Only after hearing the door close did Carrie dare to open her eyes.She had woken up while Tony and his son were on the phone, but she did not dare move, fearing that Tony might suspect her of eavesdropping.Just now, when that old lecher stood by the bed looking at her, there was definitely a murderous glint in his eyes. She could feel it.Sooner or later, he would kill her.Carrie was filled with panic. She wanted to escape but was afraid she would not succeed. No one was there to help her.For a moment, Carrie even considered running to Camryn to confess everything, but she quickly dismissed the thought. The reason she ended up in this situation was entirely due to Camryn.She and Camryn were sworn enemies. Their conflict would not end until one of them was dead. However, even if she died, she would drag Camryn down with her.-Meanwhile, in the CEO's office at York Corporation, Zachary, seated at his desk, kept glancing up at his pregnant wife.

    “You should have gotten rid of them all back then and cultivated a network of people loyal only to you.” Manny felt that his father should not have spared those people in the first place.Tony said, “There were too many of them, all relatives and friends with the same goal as us. We couldn’t eliminate them all at once.”Back then, he had incited everyone to join him in wiping out the entire main family, sparing neither the elderly nor the children.It was because they were all from the collateral branches, jealous of the main family’s long-standing control, and shared a common goal that his conspiracy succeeded.He had also spent over a decade waiting for the right opportunity.Who would have thought that even after wiping out the main family, he still could not obtain the family seal, token, or totem? Without these, he could not become the true head of the family and could only act as a proxy. Many of the connections loyal to the head remained inaccessible.Moreover, much of the

    It was his father. Manny composed himself and picked up Tony’s call as he walked toward his car.“Hey, Pops.”“How’s it going, Manny? Has there been any progress?”Tony was still in Carrie’s room at the moment, but had gotten up and walked to the balcony to call his son.Carrie was still fast asleep, though her face was set in a frown. She was obviously discomfited.Tony had pestered her for the majority of last night, so it would be weird if she did not feel any discomfort.Despite her begging, Tony would not let her go. He even forcefully drugged her to make her mess around with him while out of it. He was simply an old pervert.Before she passed out, she cursed him in her heart. However, she knew that Tony only treated her so roughly because she was just his mistress—a tool for him to vent his frustrations on.If she really was his wife, he definitely would not treat her like this.In the past, she had ambitions of taking Mrs. Longbottom’s place and becoming the real missus

    Tati also finished her plate of pastries.She followed Isabella out.“Isa, you’re always so busy and exhausted. If you’re feeling even a little unwell, you should have a good rest. Stay home for the day. I can handle the work you have on hand. It’s the same either way.”Tati wanted Isabella to take the day off so Isabella could spend some time with Austin and nurture their relationship.However, Isabella still declined Tati’s kind offer.She said, “Not today. There’s an important meeting today, and I have two important clients to meet. I’m fine, really. Don’t worry. From now on, I won’t touch alcohol.”Given her current status and position, no one would dare to force her to drink during social engagements.Many people also knew that Isabella would not drink outside her home, fearing that she might fall victim to someone’s schemes.However, Isabella would occasionally make an exception. When she was in a good mood, she would have a couple of drinks.Hearing this, Tati stopped t

    Austin still smiled gently and said, “It’s all thanks to Ms. Isabella’s guidance.”He felt that he had indeed improved a lot.Grandma May really understood him well. The wife she picked for him could actually help improve his culinary skills.“After eating the sweets, I feel much better.” Tati picked up another piece of pastry and ate it.Austin quietly retreated, not wanting to disturb their conversation and also to avoid overhearing their private matters.“Just ignore him. Are you really going to skip work because of him?”Isabella added calmly to Tati, “If you let him provoke you, he’ll only cling to you even more. If you act like he doesn’t exist and don’t respond no matter what he does, he’ll naturally give up once he sees that you’re completely unresponsive.”Tati said, “I’m afraid that he’ll go and bother Edith and Eleanor if he doesn’t get anywhere with me. They don’t have the same resolve as we do.”She, therefore, decided to bear the brunt of it.“Every time I see hi
