Chapter 1327

Author: Gu Lingfei
It was not that Mr. Newman did not want his daughter to marry into the York family but rather it was a question of whether it was possible.

Serenity reached the top without even knowing how, but other people would not be able to step into Wildridge Manor no matter how hard they tried.

It was really infuriating.

“Then, we’ll choose Mr. Stone?”

Mr. Newman looked at his wife and said, “You become muddle-headed when you care about Carrie. You only think about marrying our daughter to the best families, but you forget their relationships. Serenity is Mrs. Stone’s niece. Do you think Carrie will have a good time as Mrs. Stone’s daughter-in-law?”

Mrs. Newman was speechless.

Yes, she forgot about that.

“Carrie is still young, so there’s no need to rush. We can take our time to pick. Our top priority is to get her out of jail, find someone whom the York family respects to mediate, and let Serenity give up on suing Carrie.”

Mr. Newman felt that as long as Serenity was firmly seated in th

    Even though many gowns were made in that style, they just did not like it.The York men wanted to cover their women tightly; not even exposing their arms.At that moment, Camryn’s appearance made others want to bite into her.“Ms. Newman looks very beautiful tonight.”Callum praised Camryn before turning back to the Newman couple. “Mr. and Mrs. Newman, I saw an acquaintance of mine and will go to say hello to him. Head on inside. Many bosses are here already.”“Go ahead, Mr. York,” Mr. Newman spoke politely.He caught the amazement in Callum’s eyes when the latter looked at Camryn earlier. However, Callum only glanced at her twice, praised her, and stopped looking at her. It was clear that he was not charmed by Camryn.Mr. Newman thought that if Camryn could bewitch Callum, he would give her to Callum and let Callum speak up for Carrie. Serenity would definitely spare Carrie for the sake of her brother-in-law.What a shame; even the stunning Camryn could not tempt Callum.They

    Wiltspoon Hotel was owned by York Corporation. Josh was the administrative executive and came in and out of the hotel every day, but he still wanted her to take him inside.Josh said, “You don’t have to rush in. Your friend hasn’t arrived yet. I didn’t see his car parked at the entrance.“It’s not just Zachary. I didn’t see the Stone family’s car either. They’re not as punctual as I am.”Jasmine was not convinced. “Maybe their cars are in the underground parking lot.”“If you don’t believe me, just ask the lobby manager.”Jasmine pursed her lips and let go of Josh’s hand to take his arm instead, saying, “Okay, let’s go inside.”Josh contentedly took Jasmine into the hotel.Callum, an old acquaintance, was left standing at the entrance of the hotel. Josh did not say a word to him.Callum was speechless.Oh, the woes of being a bachelor.No matter how close a friend was, once the said friend had a partner, they no longer cared about you.Fortunately, he was just making an excu

    The same person also looked down on Serenity’s background.A country bumpkin sprinted up the social ladder just because she saved Old Mrs. York.There were so many elders in the York family, but no one raised an objection and allowed a country bumpkin to become the eldest missus of the family. She would be the lady of the family in the future. Was the York family not afraid that Serenity’s incompetence would disgrace the family and make them the laughingstock of others?If Serenity had married another son of the York family, she might not have attracted that much jealousy.“You’re right. I also think that Serenity isn’t insightful enough. She doesn’t think things through and is too impulsive. She takes advantage of her husband’s status and doesn’t show respect to many people, so she casually meddles in other people’s business and makes enemies for Mr. York.”This time it was Mrs. Newman who spoke.“Exactly. Serenity is really meddlesome. You’re Mrs. Newman, right? I remember Sere

    Zachary’s team of bodyguards responsibly opened a path for him and Serenity. They prevented anyone from approaching them as they wished. The husband and wife followed behind their parents and walked toward the Marshalls.Everyone greeted each other. The Marshalls’ gaze focused on Serenity in the end. Serenity was charming. Her aura was not inferior either. She was elegant and graceful without being petty. Zachary and Serenity had gone public with their marriage long ago. However, they had not attended any event of the elite circle together. Serenity usually attended banquets with Mrs. Stone, while Mrs. Marshall did not show up much. Therefore, it was the Marshalls’ first time meeting Serenity.The famous figure of Wiltspoon for the past six months, Mrs. York, was not as inferior as the rumors described so to the Marshalls. On the contrary, they felt she was a good match for Zachary when they stood together. They looked as if they were made for each other. Those who said S

    Mrs. Marshall thought Serenity’s voice was pleasant. She held her hand in a friendly manner and complimented her. Serenity responded to everyone’s compliments with grace, which disappointed those who wanted to see her make a fool of herself. Some people thought Mrs. Stone was indeed good at teaching. Serenity had only attended a few banquets with Mrs. Stone, yet she had managed to train a country bumpkin into a graceful missus of a wealthy family. The York family of four went on to meet Old Mr. Marshall. After looking at Serenity for some time, Old Mr. Marshall did not say a word. However, he gave her a generous gift in front of everyone. He even told Zachary, “You two must live a happy life. Your nana won’t go wrong.”Zachary was soft toward Old Mr. Marshall. “Thank you, Old Mr. Marshall. I’ll cherish and love Seren a lot.”Old Mr. Marshall smiled kindly. He was much older than Old Mrs. York, and his energy could not compare to hers. He would only meet youngsters of higher

    After greeting the hosts, everyone started looking for their friends to chat with or discuss business. At first, Serenity stayed by Zachary’s side. He did not have to go to other people to discuss collaborations as there were many CEOs who wished to collaborate with him. Serenity watched as Zachary became the spotlight no matter where he went. Everyone revolved around him. She whispered to her husband, “I overestimated myself when I said I wanted to be on equal standing as you.”Rather than thinking of being on par with him, running behind him would be good enough for her. Zachary raised their interlocked hands. He stared into her with smiling eyes and said gently, “We’re holding hands and standing shoulder to shoulder now.“Honey, to me, there’s no distance between us. If there were any, it would be me being a man and you being a woman.”Serenity smiled. She had learned socializing from Aunt Audrey for some time. She figured out and learned many things along the way and gai

    It turned out that Zachary had been using Serenity as an excuse for some time. No wonder he smelt nice and fresh when he came home recently. Of course, Serenity did not want Zachary to drink so much alcohol. His stomach had been unwell before, and she had spent time nursing him back to health. It would be better if he avoided drinking whenever he could. However, he deliberately created an image of him being bossed around by his wife…Zachary held onto Serenity’s waist. He scolded Josh with a smile and said to Jasmine, “You shouldn’t be laughing happily, Ms. Sox. Josh uses you as an excuse too.”Jasmine said, “I’m okay with it. He can use me as an excuse as much as he wants to as long as he’s healthy. You two are the same. Serenity and I have never been strict and given you guys enough freedom. You’re the ones labeling yourselves as men who’re afraid of their wives.” Serenity grinned. “They’re not even scared of being ridiculed.”“No one dares to laugh at me for being afraid

    Zachary clinked glasses with Josh, but he did not drink. He replied, “Clive’s wife is pregnant. You didn’t just find out about this. If it were you, would you have brought your wife to such a venue tonight?”After a moment of silence, Josh said, “I forgot about it. People of no importance are none of my concern. If my Jasmine were pregnant, I wouldn’t even let her walk. I’ll carry her around.”Zachary found it funny and said, “Being pregnant isn’t the same as falling sick. There’s no need to be so nervous. Pregnant women have to have sufficient exercise too.”Josh pouted. “You’re talking now, but wait till your wife gets pregnant. If you can maintain the same opinion when that time comes, I’ll treat you to a meal.”“You’re talking as if I don’t have food. I cook for Seren whenever I have time. My cooking skills have leveled up.”They chatted in low voices as they walked toward the crowd. Many people raised their glasses in their direction as a form of greeting. Josh smiled and

    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.

    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.

    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
