LOGINMicah replied, “Great-Nana is doing well, and Lil’ Pie is doing great too. She’s getting smarter every day. She can say a lot of words now.”Trenton smiled. “Of course. She’s growing.”Kids always changed so much in such a short time.The uncle and nephew chatted nonstop along the way.Occasionally, Alex chimed in with a sentence or two, but since he was driving, he could not get too distracted.As they were about to reach the Newmans’ residence, Micah suddenly said to Trenton, “Uncle Trent, I’m going to have another aunt soon.”Trenton replied, “Oh, you’re getting another aunt? Is it your Aunt Rosalie? Your Uncle River just got married.”After processing what his nephew meant, he turned to look at Alex and asked with a grin, “Alex, you’ve got a girlfriend already? Since when? I didn’t even hear that you were dating. Don’t tell me you’re pulling a flash marriage like Zachary and Serenity?”“I do have feelings for someone. I just haven’t won her over yet, but she won’t escape me
“Thank you, Uncle Alex! You’re my favorite!”Micah thanked him happily.Trenton immediately sounded a little jealous. “Merry, didn’t you say I’m your favorite uncle? How is it your Uncle Alex now?”“I love all of you, but I love Mom and Dad the most, and Grandpa, Gramma, and all my uncles too.”Trenton laughed. “Wow, you really spread the love around equally, don’t you?”He picked Micah up into his arms, then said to Alex, “I just got back from a business trip. I’m exhausted and don’t feel like driving, so you drive. I’ll keep Merry company.”Alex replied, “I wasn’t counting on you to drive anyway.”A few minutes later, Alex drove off from the preschool with the uncle and nephew in the car.“How did things go?” Alex asked.Trenton leaned back against the seat and replied, “It was resolved smoothly. Still, it was exhausting. Running a business is really hard. I’m nowhere near as capable as Camryn.”“Take it slow. You’re doing well—better than a lot of second-gen heirs. Most of
“I was away on a business trip for a while and just got back. I missed Merry, so I thought I’d come and pick him up. I called my sister, and she said you were coming to get him. So I thought I’d try my luck here and see if I’d run into you.”Trenton truly adored his nephew, Micah.“No wonder I haven’t seen you for a while. You were on a business trip. Callum told me to pick Merry up, so I came. If I’d known you were free, I would’ve had you come to my place to get the guardian card.”Trenton smiled. “I just got back from the airport. It was a last-minute decision.”So, the two of them waited outside the preschool.Ten minutes later, Micah came out with his teacher.“Uncle Alex!”With his sharp eyes, the little guy spotted Alex instantly in the crowd.Well, that was because all his uncles were tall and handsome, and they stood out anywhere.After handing over the guardian card, Alex lifted Micah into his arms with a smile. “Are you happy that I came to pick you up?”“Yes! But
“Since it’s Saturday, they’ll probably come as a family of three,” Callum replied.Under normal circumstances, the child would have preschool, and Tim would be at work. That was why Dr. Carden would come alone.Alex nodded. “Alright. I’ll tell Sheila in a bit. She’ll definitely be thrilled.”He had promised Sheila that he would introduce her to Dr. Carden. Now, he could finally keep that promise.“Callum, you go ahead and work. I’ll head back and get to mine.”Alex had decided to go with Callum’s suggestion. When Saturday came, he would bring Sheila back to the manor and confess to her in the flower fields. With endless blooms stretching as far as the eye could see, there would be no need to cut any flowers, and it would still be romantic enough.“Scram.”As Alex stood up, he said, “I don’t know how to scram. Why don’t you show me how, Callum?”“Scram!” Callum cursed with a laugh.“I’m going to tell Camryn that you told me to scram.”Callum immediately reached for something t
Kent spoke calmly, “As I said, invite whoever you want from your side. It’s your decision. I have no objections.”He paused for a few minutes, but in the end, he couldn’t help asking, “Did Sheila say anything?”“Dr. Jones said that a month from now, she might not have time to attend our wedding. If she can’t make it, she’ll have her uncle, Dr. Marvin, go in her place.”Kent nodded and said nothing else. Deep down, however, he hoped that Marvin would be able to attend his and Mary’s wedding.…That afternoon, in the COO’s office at York Corporation, Callum looked at Alex, who had walked in, sat down in front of his desk, and said nothing.He asked, “Alex, what’s going on? You come in, sit there, and just stare at me without saying a word? Do you think I’m getting more mature and more charming by the day?”Alex replied, “Callum, you’ve always been charming, but you’re married now. No matter how charming you are, you can’t go around captivating other women.”“You’re wrong. There
Mary replied with a smile, “That’s true, no one can say for sure what will happen tomorrow either. Well, if you’re free, please do come by and join in the celebration.“It’ll be even better if you can come with Mr. York.”If Sheila came to the wedding with Alex, it would ensure that Dr. Levitt would utterly give up on Sheila and spend the rest of his days with her peacefully.Sheila knew what Mary was thinking. She said, “He won’t come if he’s not invited. If I’m not free, I’ll ask my uncle to go in my stead.”Uncle Marvin could afford the time off.Kent had been Marvin’s student for two years, so even though Talia’s actions had angered Marvin, he would not hold a grudge since Sheila had already gotten over it. If she gave him the invitation, he would probably go.Mary said, “We don’t know Mr. York so well, so we daren’t give him an invitation.”Besides, even if they did give him one, Alex would not grant them the honor.Unless Sheila came and he came with her as her boyfriend.

Dominic smiled. “Based on my experience, you’ve definitely passed.“Go and meet Ms. O’Connor. Don’t be nervous. Although she’s stern, she’s a nice person.”“Thanks, Dominic. I’ll go to her now.”Austin was not afraid of stern people. No matter how scary Isabella was, she could never top Zachary. Austin
“Are you in Wiltspoon now, Dylan?”“Yes. I’m back.”Feeling apologetic, Dylan explained, “I’ve been busy since I returned and haven’t had the time to visit Nana. Does she miss me? I shall spend some time with her this weekend.”Grandma May was a child at heart. She loved having her grandsons entertaini
Sonny nodded. “Your dog isn’t as big as before, but Chunky is still fat.”Although Mrs. Lane had the pets’ meals under control, Chunky would still sneak some food. “Let’s go for a walk and have a look at the dog.”Serenity put the drawing down and brought Sonny out for a walk.
