Trenton refused. “I can’t help you there, Carrie.“I can’t change Camryn’s mind. What I’m spending now comes from her. I still need her to support me financially. How can I influence her to change her decisions?”Even if he could persuade Camryn to reactivate Carrie’s bank card, he would choose not to do it. Trenton and Camryn’s aim was to prevent Carrie from losing all the family’s money. He wanted to force Carrie to be independent and build her own life. Otherwise, Carrie would be suppressed by Camryn for the rest of her life. After all, Carrie was Trenton’s biological sister, and he wanted to see her do well. “Since you know she’s this unreasonable, you should work with me instead of falling prey to her lies. Was it her idea that you meet Mom and Dad and get them to transfer their assets to you? She must’ve taught you that, right? She probably badmouthed me too.“Camryn wants to take everything belonging to the Newmans, Trenton. Worrying that I might lose everything is ju

However, Trenton himself would be in charge between him and Carrie. Carrie quickly accepted the money. She caught up to Trenton and pulled him back. “Give me more money, Trenton. Transfer me a hundred thousand, no, fifty thousand dollars is fine too. Five thousand really isn’t enough. Or else, you can steal the title deeds with my name on it and the spare keys from Camryn.”She recalled that Mom had bought her a few houses. When she was studying, she did not stay in the dormitory and lived in a private property her mom bought instead.After Carrie stopped studying, Paige let out that and some other properties but never told her how much the monthly rent was. The only thing Carrie knew was those houses were for her. As long as she could get the title deeds and keys, she could sell them and earn a lot of money. Those houses were located in school catchment areas. One of them could easily earn her millions. “Why could Camryn take my title deeds? Those are my assets, and she to

Camryn looked at Trenton’s swollen cheek and asked, “Did she hit you?”Touching the side of his face that was slapped by Carrie, Trenton replied, “Yes, she slapped me. But I stopped her when she tried to do it again. She went to see our parents and found out that I had them transfer the family assets to me, so she came to settle the score.“Camryn, don’t bother with Carrie. She’s spoiled by our parents, doesn’t know her limits, and needs to face reality. Only through life’s experiences can she mature a bit.”Camryn tenderly touched the swell and said with concern, “She’s just a lunatic, spoiled by Mom. If she can’t protect her child for a lifetime and ends up raising a useless person, then she’s only harming the child.”Carrie was a victim of her parents’ indulgence; spoiling a child was akin to harming the child.“Go inside and apply an ice pack.”“Okay.”The siblings headed in together.Meanwhile, Carrie went back to her rented house, grumbling and complaining.When she open

The middle-aged man smiled and said, “My surname is Longbottom. Now, you've gotten to know me, Ms. Carrie.”His gaze was quite audacious. After Carrie approached, he shamelessly scrutinized her, finally displaying a satisfied look at Carrie’s figure and appearance.“Ms. Carrie, please have a seat. Let’s have a chat.”“Mr. Longbottom, this is my home. Don’t act like you’re the master here. You have illegally entered. Do you know that I can call the police on you at any time?”He laughed. Not bad looking for a man in his forties or fifties, presenting the image of a suave middle-aged man.However, his gaze was overly audacious, and Carrie did not like the way his eyes roved over her, as if scrutinizing prey.“Yes, yes, it’s our mistake. Apologies to you.”With that, Mr. Longbottom clapped his hands.A bodyguard stepped forward and handed a new handbag to him.Mr. Longbottom took the bag and then passed it to Carrie, saying with a sly smile, “Ms. Carrie, this is my apology to you

Carrie asked in confusion, “Why would I want to change my appearance? I’m satisfied with my natural looks and don’t want to change anything about it.”Mr. Longbottom smiled. “Ms. Carrie has excellent features. If you don’t want to go under the knife, then wear a human skin mask. Just wear it whenever you go out. I’ve prepared one that looks so real, even someone with the Eye of Ra wouldn’t be able to tell.“Also, I’ll give you a new identity. Until our alliance is complete, you cannot revert to your original identity as Ms. Carrie of the Newman family. I can assure you that once my affairs are settled, I will grant you all the properties you desire from the Newman family.“Your blind sister, I want to crush her like an ant. She’s not a threat, but I need you to cooperate with me. Once my goals are achieved, I can help you seize everything you want.”Mr. Longbottom’s words were extremely arrogant as if he possessed tremendous abilities. He spoke boldly about crushing Callum as if sq

Carrie’s face instantly turned ugly.“Mr. Longbottom, are you asking me to be your mistress?”She was only twenty years old, young and beautiful. With her background, marrying into a wealthy family and becoming a young missus was entirely feasible.This older man, even if well-preserved, should be around her father’s age, and yet he wanted her as his mistress!It was like an old man preying on a young girl.Mr. Longbottom chuckled. “Ms. Carrie, you lack special skills and are unwilling to bow down to reality, to work for a monthly income of a few thousand dollars. Tell me, how will you live? Relying on your brother’s monthly allowance of five thousand dollars for your living expenses?”Carrie was shocked.How did this man know about her conversation with Trenton?Did he have someone watching her, tracking her every encounter, every person she met, and the words she spoke?That would be terrifying.Even Zachary would not be able to achieve such a level of surveillance.“Besid

Mr. Longbottom laughed heartily. Then, he looked at her and said, “Ms. Carrie, this may not be up to you. It’s best if you agree. Even if you don’t agree, you’ll have to, because I’ve approached you. I can’t let you expose me. Otherwise, I’ll have to silence you.“I will also make you die a painful death. You’ve seen my men, there are more than ten of them.”Carrie’s face turned deathly pale.“Ms. Carrie, do you choose to be with me, or do you choose death? I’ll give you a few minutes to consider.”Carrie glanced at the dozen or so men in black.Then she looked at Mr. Longbottom. Who exactly was this man?He spoke of killing without hesitation.Could he be a serial killer?Carrie suddenly sank to her knees.“Mr. Longbottom, please spare my life. I don’t want to die. I’m only twenty years old, and I don’t want to die.”Her life had just begun.Mr. Longbottom stood up, walked over to her, and lifted her.Carrie understood his intentions. Her face grew even paler, but she made

Carrie asked in confusion, “Since you are targeting Mrs. Young-Johnson’s adopted son, why don’t you directly find someone to help you in Annenburg? The distance between Wiltspoon and Annenburg is quite far. Even if she and Serenity are close, they don’t meet often.”Mr. Longbottom sighed. “That’s the unavoidable part.”“There was absolutely no trace of Laurence in Annenburg. We only knew that Laurence was the adopted son of Ben and his wife. However, no one outside knew what the child looked like.“Moreover, Laurence rarely stayed in Annenburg. We did not know where the kid usually hides. “The Johnsons are protected by the Houstons and are in-laws with the Lafayette family from Meadspring. Plus, Tim’s wife is a disciple of a renowned doctor. I dared not provoke them. Previously, we investigated Laurence’s identity, but Ben found out that someone was looking into Laurence's background. “After that, we lost all relevant information about Laurence.”“It was only recently that they

“Remy, Remy!” a voice called from outside. It sounded like Audrey. Remy came out of the kitchen, wearing an apron.“You keep at it, I’ll go out. My mom must have seen the lights and knew you were back, so she’s calling you over for dinner at our house.”At this time, her family was probably halfway through their meal.Elisa put down the remote control and walked out of the house with a packet of snacks in hand, munching as she went.“Mom.” Elisa walked to the fence and responded to her mother.“Elisa? You’re back too? You came back and didn’t even come home for dinner? We’re eating right now. Hurry up and bring Remy over. Grandpa True was just saying that Remy hasn’t come over for dinner in a few days.”Remy had been busy entertaining clients lately, so he had not had time to join his in-laws for meals.Elisa replied, “Mom, I feel like eating Remy’s cooking tonight, so we won’t be coming over. You guys go ahead.”“Oh, you. It’s so late already, and you’re still making Remy c

Elisa said, “Although cousins can be as close as siblings, it’s still better to have another child. After all, we won’t be living at your family home permanently, and our children might not have much time to bond with their cousins in the future.“I have two older brothers, and the three of us have always been close. My brothers have always doted on me, and I can always talk about things with them. My sister-in-law has been very kind to me even after they got married too.“I’m used to having siblings around. It’s lively, and no matter what happens, we can always talk things through. It’s nice not having to face everything alone. I don’t want my children to feel lonely in the future.”Elisa continued, “Most importantly, I love children. If you could be the one to carry and give birth, sparing me the exhaustion of pregnancy, I’d even consider having three kids. But unfortunately, you can’t.“If I have to carry the baby myself, even though I love children, I’d only have two—preferably

Jasmine smiled. “I can’t tell. He’s so tiny. I’m scared when I have to carry him. I’m afraid of hurting him. What if he slips from my arms?”As a first-time mother, Jasmine was inexperienced. She was not like Serenity, who had raised a baby before. Josh and Zachary had secretly taken classes on how to look after a baby. The way Josh held the baby was more accurate than hers. “You’ll get better at it after learning slowly. I didn’t dare to carry my nephew either because I was scared of hurting him, but I’m an expert now.”Elisa could not resist touching the baby’s face again. She really liked babies.“Has the baby been fed?”Camila replied, “He was fed an hour ago.”The baby had been ravenous. Everyone was relieved when they saw the baby could feed normally. The doctor said the baby might experience jaundice a few days later and that premature babies should be monitored closely. Jaundice usually appeared when the baby was a few days old. It would reach its peak after

Remy gave it some thought. If he were to become a father, he would also be extremely happy, to the point that he would forget about posting on social media.They were usually busy people and did not have the habit of posting regularly anyway. Josh only started sharing a lot on Facebook after he got married. He simply wanted to show off his life after marriage and irritate his friends who were still single. Even Zachary would post about his love life on Facebook occasionally. Remy suddenly felt he had to keep up with the trend and post something on Facebook during his free time. Remy and Elisa went to buy some supplements before heading to the hospital. There were still many people in Jasmine’s ward. Most of the men were sitting in the small living area while the women were chatting with Jasmine or looking at the baby in the room. The baby boy was already fed and in fresh diapers. He was sleeping soundly. “Jasmine.”Elisa walked over with the supplements she had brought.

The secretary wished she could skip work and visit Jasmine at the hospital with Elisa. However, that could never happen. She was simply an employee, while Elisa was her boss. The only alternative was if Elisa invited her along. Nevertheless, the employees could meet Jasmine during their break or visit her at her house. Elisa left excitedly. A Maybach was parked at the entrance of the company. When Remy spotted Elisa exiting, he stuck his head out and waved at her. Upon seeing him, she was no longer in a hurry to get to her car. She quickly walked over. “Why are you here? Why didn’t you go inside?”Elisa was beaming. As she had received good news, she had a smiling face regardless of who she met.“I just arrived. I didn’t drive inside when I saw you coming out. Where are you going?”Remy got out of the car.“Jasmine gave birth. I want to go to the hospital to visit her and her baby. You came at the right time. We can head over together, but let’s get some supplemen

“Yes. Health is the most important thing. Everything else is secondary. With the York family’s wealth and numbers, they won’t have to worry about not having a successor even if your child is slightly more ordinary.”Of course, Elisa personally hoped the next successor of the York family would be her nephew.The Stones and the Yorks could be considered relatives because Elisa and Serenity were cousins.The successor of the Stone family was most likely Clive’s son. If the York family’s heir was not Serenity’s child, would the two families’ relationship that was finally mended become strained again?After all, the head of the York family would no longer be a relative of the Stones if that were the case. However, Elisa did not voice her thoughts. She did not want Serenity to feel pressured. As an aunt, she also thought her nephew’s health was more important than anything else.“You must be busy, Elisa. You should go on with your work. I shall not disturb you. I appreciate your

“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
