Chapter 2718

Author: Gu Lingfei
Upon hearing this, Belinda first frowned, then set down her cutleries, stood up, and said to her children, “Mr. Queen is here. Follow me to greet him.”

It was not surprising for Belinda that Kevin had arrived.

Liberty was associated with the Yorks and Stones.

Although Kevin the third young master of the Yorks was intimidating, the influence of the York family in Jensburg was not as strong as the Queen family, which made Belinda more concerned about the Queen family.

Hayden’s uninvited arrival was likely at the behest of Kevin to support Liberty, hinting at the Fishers that Liberty was not without influential support, and that was the Queen family.

Upon hearing that Hayden had arrived, Celine felt quite nervous. She hurriedly glanced at the clothes she was wearing tonight. Knowing that her mother only invited Liberty over, she did not deliberately change into an evening gown, just wearing casual clothes.

Should she go upstairs now to change into a formal dress?

Maybe it was too

I love the action of Caroline being concerned about her dad and ordering Celine out of the company to serve her father.

    Celine did not want to go, but if she did not take food upstairs to Hunter while her mother asked in Hayden’s presence, Hayden would think she was an unfilial daughter.People in Jensburg knew that the Fisher family favored Celine over Caroline, saying the fake heiress was favored over the real successor.If Celine was not filial, she would lose her reputation. Celine hoped to rely on the Fisher family and marry into a prestigious family as a young missus.Therefore, as per Belinda’s order, she prepared food and drinks for Hunter and took them upstairs.When Emma saw Celine going upstairs, she exchanged a glance with her sisters-in-law and carried on as if nothing was wrong, continuing to eat and drink.Liberty noticed the exchange between Emma and Ava and felt they were hiding something, though since it was Celine, she supposed it did not concern her.Liberty conversed casually with Caroline and occasionally exchanged words with Hayden.Hayden was reserved in front of others, wi

    “Your mom is getting older, busy with work, and her thoughts are all wrapped up in the company and fostering Caroline. She hasn’t paid attention to me. Although I’m also getting older, my health is fine, and I still have some needs. She doesn’t fulfill her duties as a wife and doesn’t even let me have a quickie.”Hunter, perhaps due to the alcohol or frustration with his wife, vented all his dissatisfaction to his daughter.Seeing her father’s painful and angry state, Celine involuntarily sat down to drink and kept him company. She still sympathized with her father.Downstairs, the banquet was lively, but her father had to hide upstairs, unwilling to face people; just because he made the mistakes many men do.The guests downstairs were also uncomfortable, mainly due to the addition of three esteemed guests.They could not grasp why Belinda organized this banquet. The atmosphere lacked liveliness.“Liberty, what kind of business are you planning to invest in?” Belinda asked, see

    The other guests realized that Kevin and Hayden were Liberty’s supporters. They had not heard of Liberty's outstanding capabilities, but the wealthy families behind her were enough. Her sister was the York family’s missus, who had more than enough to invest in Liberty. As long as Liberty had courage and business acumen, she did not have to worry about money. Some competent individuals within the Fisher family, who were subjected to oppression by Belinda, began formulating ideas in their heads.Liberty smiled and said, “I’m interested in any profitable projects. Do you have time tomorrow, Mr. Queen? I can visit you.”Hayden said, “You can come over anytime.”Kevin said, “Hayden, I’ll get jealous if you’re so nice to Liberty. You’ve always said you’re busy and ignored me whenever I went over. On the contrary, you’re available anytime for Liberty.”That earned him a side-eye from Hayden. “Liberty and I have good chemistry.”Caroline smiled. “I think Liberty and I get along too.

    Adrian helped his wife to get up. Emma grabbed his hand and frantically said, “Adrian, go check on Dad and Celine. They… They…“I can’t say it. You all will know when you see it for yourselves.”Upon hearing her words, Adrian immediately ran upstairs, thinking his dad and Celine had gotten hurt. His brothers and Caroline were right behind him, and in the end, Belinda decided to go upstairs too. Liberty, Kevin, and Hayden, who were about to leave, stayed and looked up. They did not know what had happened that could shock even Emma. “What happened to Dad and Celine, Emma?”Ava and Ellie approached Emma and asked out of concern and curiosity. Emma blushed. She stammered for a while before whispering something in their ears that changed their expressions. The next moment, Ava and Ellie were rushing up the stairs—they could not miss a good show. Belinda’s roar of fury could be heard upstairs alongside the sounds of things being hurled and falling. The other Fisher family

    The butler was still clueless about the incident upstairs. However, as the butler, she had to send the guests off when the madam of the house was not around. She replied that she would relay Liberty’s words to Belinda. Liberty got into Hayden’s car while her bodyguards shared a ride with Hayden’s bodyguards. The Fisher family’s bodyguards would drive her car. Kevin was envious of Liberty but he knew it was not the time to get jealous. They had to leave Fisher Manor first. Even a shameless man like he was, who has seen all sorts of things, was shocked by the scene he witnessed upstairs.Never did it occur to him that Celine and Hunter would entangle themselves in sexual activities together. They were still going at it when he was upstairs. When the cars left Fisher Manor, Hayden asked Liberty curiously, “What did you and Kevin see upstairs? Did something happen to Belinda’s husband?”“Something big did happen.”Liberty replied, “I knew today wouldn’t end peacefully, but

    “However, the food Celine brought up was problematic. Who do you think was behind this? Is it Celine? Or Hunter himself? No matter who did it, this was a cruel method.”After speaking, Liberty laughed dryly. “Compared to those people, I’m not vicious or cruel.”If reclaiming the position of matriarch required these methods, she would not be able to do it; she would rather let Caroline have it. Hayden gave it some thought and said, “It couldn’t have been Celine or Hunter, nor could it have been Madam Fisher. They can’t suspect us because we’ve been under Madam Fisher’s watchful eye all along. The other Fishers probably didn’t have the guts to do this.“Caroline’s a possibility. She’s bold enough to do it. However, based on my understanding of her, she’s a righteous person. She won’t use such underhanded methods to compete with Celine. Hunter is her biological father as well. Although they didn’t share a close bond, she won’t go that far.”Liberty nodded. “I don’t think it’s Caroli

    Liberty said, “I think the wives are the culprit. I don’t know how they executed their plan. However, this is just our guess. We don’t have to care about who’s behind this. It probably won’t be circulated.”Belinda would not let word get out. She may not have been able to cover things up in time as she was outraged. However, she would take action immediately once she regained a clear mind. Those who had gone upstairs may have run off quickly, but they would not be able to escape. Belinda would know who had gone up with some digging around. Liberty dared to bet that Belinda would look for her first thing tomorrow and tell her not to shush her up. As for the culprit, Belinda would find it out herself. They just had to observe if the three women were divorced or chased out of the family to know the outcome. “Celine will have to leave the Fisher family for good this time,” said Hayden. She hated Celine. It had nothing to do with Celine’s love for Hayden or her constant pes

    Liberty’s expressions changed. The first thing that came to her mind was that Belinda orchestrated a car accident to kill her. She had guessed that Belinda would not stay still.The banquet was peaceful, and the food was not poisoned. Therefore, Liberty was worried that her car was tampered with to get her into an accident. That was why she chose to sit in Hayden’s car. The Fisher family would not dare to tamper with Hayden’s car or attack Hayden. Hence, Liberty would be safe if she followed her. Six bodyguards were assigned to her; two each from the Yorks, Stones, and Lewises. Since she had brought them to Jensburg, she had to ensure their safety. Therefore, she had hinted at her bodyguards to lie that they had drunk alcohol and were unfit to drive. In the end, all of them squeezed into one vehicle with Hayden’s bodyguards while their cars were being driven back to the hotel by the few Fishers’ bodyguards assigned by their butler.The car that got hit happened to be the on

    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.

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.

    “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
