Serenity smiled in embarrassment as she said, โThe next time I encounter a situation I canโt handle alone, I'll consider giving you a chance.โIf Serenity could deal with it herself, she would not ask for his help as she did not want to owe him.โWhat sort of situation would you need help with?โ Zachary asked.Serenity laughed. โTons and tons of stuff. Itโs just that I canโt think of anything right now. So Mr. York, you can go about your day.โZachary looked at her in silence for a long while, then said mildly, โIโm going back to the office then. What time are you closing up tonight? Iโll come over and wait for you so we can go home together. Iโm worried those trashy people will try and block your car again.โโThey wonโt. Itโs the kind of thing only Noah would do, being young and aggressive. Theyโve already suffered a loss once, so they wonโt dare try a second time. They might look very aggressive, but theyโre cowards to the bone.โYou go ahead with your work. Thereโs no need to

Fatty liver could develop into cirrhosis, and Liberty did not want that to happen.Having left the walls of the community, Liberty walked as she pushed her sonโs stroller toward the store to buy formula.In the past, it was always her sister who helped her buy the formula and brought it home.It was a little bit far to go there on foot, but she just thought of it as shopping and taking a walk.โDaddy.โSonny suddenly called for his father.Liberty looked around frantically but did not see Hank Brown.โSonny, did you see Daddy?โ she asked her son.Sonny pointed at a car parked by the roadside as he called for his father.What he meant was that the car was his fatherโs car.Liberty looked at the car her son was pointing at. It was the same make and model as her husbandโs but the number plate was not Hank Brownโs.She smiled. โSonny, thatโs not Daddyโs car. Itโs just the same make and model. The numberโs different, so itโs not your daddyโs car.โThe kid rarely interacted with

Liberty had just put the phone to her ear when she heard Hank Brown scolding her through the phone, โWhat do you normally teach Sonny? Youโve taught Sonny to have no respect, no friendship, and no spirit of sharing with his cousin! I said Iโd buy him some toys and he said he didnโt want to give them to Lucas.โLibertyโs anger sparked too after that tongue-lashing by her husband. She said coldly, โWhat do I teach Sonny? Is that Sonnyโs fault? Lucas always tries to snatch Sonnyโs toys and even hits him! Do you think Sonnyโs some sort of dough ball for others to knead and pinch?โโItโs clearly Lucasโ fault. As a father, you donโt protect your own sonโfine! But youโre even blaming him for not being understanding? Should we just let Sonny give up all of his toys to Lucas, and just let Lucas hit him again?!โLucas has been thoroughly spoiled by your sister and your parents. Heโs always bullying Sonny. Are you guys all blind? Can't you see that? Hank Brown, Sonny is your son. Your own son!

Jessica Yates was not repulsed by it and seemed like she could not be happier.Hank thought Jessica was truly in love with him and was not after his money. He thought she truly wanted to grow old with him and was not playing aroundโthat was why she kept her last line of defense and would not have sex with him. She was serious about it, so Hank got even more serious about it. He also promised Jessica that once he saved even more money, he would give her a new car.Jessica was so grateful that she fiercely kissed him a good number of times, dazing him into forgetting which way was up and which way was down.Liberty still wanted to say something but Hank had already hung up and promptly transferred the thousand two hundred dollars to Liberty for her to buy formula with.Although she did not manage to get the full amount of two thousand dollars and four hundred bucks and had only gotten half of that, Liberty immediately accepted the money he had transferred.โWhatโs wrong? Was it yo

Jessica said, โIt takes both husband and wife to have a child. Youโre not wrong to only pay for your half.โ Of course, Hank felt that he was above any fault. He took a sip of wine and replied, โThe Wiltspoon Hotel lives up to its name as the finest hotel. The red wine here is more exceptional than what we usually have.โ Jessica responded with a smile, โWell, considering the event, I wouldnโt expect any less. Itโs a pity that only small-time CEOs and elites of our field are here. Major CEOs like Mr. Stone and Mr. York arenโt attending.โ She would love to check out an influential man like Mr. York again. Jessica stumbled upon the man of the hour the last time. Alas, she could not get a look at Mr. Yorkโs face. She wondered if Mr. York was as distinguished, aloof, and handsome as described in the rumors. โWeโll always have the chance to meet people like Mr. York and Mr. Stone in the future.โ Hank consoled Jessica. It was a situation he found regrettable, more so than Jessic

There would be a change of senior executives every time the head of the company was replaced. The new boss would want his own people around him. Following Mr. Stevensโ explanation, Hank took an instant liking to Shawn. Hank asked Mr. Stevens with a smile, โAre you close with Mr. Lowe? Can you introduce us? Lowe Enterprise has a subsidiary company dealing with electronics. There are opportunities for us to work together, but weโd need someone to hook us up.โ Waltham Electronics did business with the company Mr. Stevens was working in. That was how Mr. Stevens came to know Shawn. Mr. Stevens smiled and replied, โShawn seems to be getting weary from the flattery. Heโll soon find a spot to sit down. Iโll hook you up and introduce you to him when he comes over.โ Hank beamed. Grateful to Mr. Stevens, he raised his glass and said, โTo you, Mr. Stevens.โ Mr. Stevens clinked glasses with Hank and took a couple of sips of wine before glancing at Jessica suggestively. He said to Han

โHello, Mr. Lowe.โ Hank extended his right hand to shake Shawnโs hand. During the handshake, Shawn remarked, โI believe Iโve heard of your name before, Mr. Brown.โ Hankโs name sounded familiar. Hank was flattered. โHave you heard of me, Mr. Lowe?โ It was a pleasant surprise that Hank made a name for himself among the professionals to the point that the unacquainted Mr. Lowe had heard of his name. Shawn replied with a grin, โYour name rings a bell. I mustโve heard it from someone, but I had never met you in person. Well, thatโs changed tonight.โ Hank quickly pulled out his business card and handed it to Shawn. Curling his lips, he responded, โMr. Lowe, itโs an honor to meet you. This is my business card. I look forward to working with you if we have the chance.โ Shawn took the business card from Hank for a glance before putting it away. His eyes then shifted toward Jessica who had a broad smile on her face. Although the woman was a stunner, Shawn only took a fleeting

โSonny.โ Without time to pick up the can of formula that rolled to the middle of the road, Liberty flew to pick up her son and examined him for any injuries. She asked, โWhere does it hurt, Sonny? Do you feel pain anywhere? Tell mama.โ โMama.โ Sonny bawled and clung to Libertyโs neck, refusing to let go. He was not hurt, but it was quite a scare. โBang!โ It was a loud noise. Liberty turned her gaze to the source of the noise. A car knocked the can of formula away, but as luck would have it, the can of formula smashed onto the carโs windshield on its way down from the air. The weight of the can and the gravity of the fall cracked the windshield to smithereens. The driver of the car slammed hard on the brakes. Startled by the sudden turn of events, Sonny stopped crying and latched tightly around the nape of his motherโs neck. Liberty had a good look at the carโs logo. It was a Porsche! It was a high-performance sedan! Uhโฆ Was she supposed to compensate for the c

โYou should have gotten rid of them all back then and cultivated a network of people loyal only to you.โ Manny felt that his father should not have spared those people in the first place.Tony said, โThere were too many of them, all relatives and friends with the same goal as us. We couldnโt eliminate them all at once.โBack 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 familyโs 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

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 mistressโa 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. Longbottomโs place and becoming the real missus

Tati also finished her plate of pastries.She followed Isabella out.โIsa, youโre always so busy and exhausted. If youโre 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. Itโs the same either way.โTati wanted Isabella to take the day off so Isabella could spend some time with Austin and nurture their relationship.However, Isabella still declined Tatiโs kind offer.She said, โNot today. Thereโs an important meeting today, and I have two important clients to meet. Iโm fine, really. Donโt worry. From now on, I wonโt touch alcohol.โGiven 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 someoneโs 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, โItโs all thanks to Ms. Isabellaโs guidance.โHe 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.โAfter eating the sweets, I feel much better.โ 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.โJust ignore him. Are you really going to skip work because of him?โIsabella added calmly to Tati, โIf you let him provoke you, heโll only cling to you even more. If you act like he doesnโt exist and donโt respond no matter what he does, heโll naturally give up once he sees that youโre completely unresponsive.โTati said, โIโm afraid that heโll go and bother Edith and Eleanor if he doesnโt get anywhere with me. They donโt have the same resolve as we do.โShe, therefore, decided to bear the brunt of it.โEvery time I see hi

Austin replied, โBoth Mr. Louis and Mr. Phillip woke up very early, especially Mr. Phillip. He gets up earlier than Mr. Louis every morning. Itโs really hard on him, getting up so early in such cold weather.โSometimes, he himself felt like staying in bed a little longer, reluctant to leave the warm comfort of his blankets.Even after the New Year, Satbury remained quite cold. In contrast, over in Wiltspoon, the temperatures had begun to reach a high of over seventy degrees Fahrenheit in the daytime, with nighttime lows around fifty degrees.The two provinces and cities were simply incomparable. The temperatures in Wiltspoon were just so very comfortable for Satbury locals.Isabella smiled and said, โPhillip is just afraid heโll get here too late and that youโll assume heโs not coming over for breakfast, then not prepare any for him. He's such a little foodie.โThe house was never short of snacks for the little ones. In fact, any goodies were always reserved for them first.Yet,

Even when she attended banquets, she would show up in formal clothing. Isabella did not remember the last time she wore a dress. Perhaps it was when she was in third grade. In fact, she liked wearing pretty princessy dresses when she was young. Her mother had told her that.As Isabella was the first child and extremely adorable, Delphine had dolled her up like a princess. Her pretty dresses filled the closet. Her parents, aunts, uncles, and relatives would always gift her many beautiful dresses. As she grew up, perhaps when she was in fourth grade, she stopped wearing dresses. Regardless of who gave her new pieces, she would refuse to wear them and give them to her cousins instead. After everyone realized she disliked dresses, they gradually stopped giving her them. Delphine had asked Isabella why she disliked wearing dresses. Isabella reasoned that she could not walk quickly enough while wearing one. She valued speed and efficiency. Delphine said she had alway

While the private chefs Ms. Isabella had hired in the past were respectful, they were leaning toward flattery instead of sincere dedication, like how Austin was toward Ms. Isabella.Dominic was experienced. He could sense that Ms. Isabella treated Austin differently. She was also a special existence to Austin. It was normal for young people to be attracted to each other. Initially, Dominic wanted to advise Austin not to even think about dating Ms. Isabella. However, upon discovering that Austin was a young master of a wealthy family, he decided not to interfere. Dominic was glad that he did nothing.Austin returned to the house. Instead of heading straight to the kitchen, he went upstairs. He stopped outside of Isabellaโs room and knocked on the door lightly. No response came from within the room. Perhaps Austin was too soft when he knocked. He knocked on the door again with more force and asked, โAre you up yet, Ms. Isabella?
