“Seren, starting tomorrow, you can pick Sonny up while I jog to your shop. I want to lose weight!” Liberty was not getting into shape to save her marriage. It was for her own self-confidence.“Okay, ” Serenity replied. She had told her sister to work out before it turned into a health issue. “Seren.” Liberty suddenly put her arms around her sister and cried. In fact, she bawled out loudly. All the years she devoted to the relationship had come to this. Liberty would be lying to say it was not eating her up inside. However, she put on a brave face so her son did not see her cry. Holding her sister tightly, Serenity could not stop the tears in her eyes too. It was like fifteen years ago when she first heard her parents’ passing in an accident. Liberty went to fetch her from school to bring her home. Serenity had only walked out of the school gate when her sister held her and burst into tears. Serenity had no idea what was going on then. Her sister had only said that thei

Liberty uttered gratefully, “Seren, Zachary is a good man. You’re right about him. He’s always by your side whenever it gets tough for us. He spared no resources and effort to help us. Be a good wife to him.” Serenity replied, “I will, Liberty.” Her sister would be upset if Serenity were to tell her that her marriage with Zachary was only for six months. They were only a married couple by name. Serenity should keep it from her sister for now. “Don’t lose faith in Zachary because of my marriage. Although Zachary doesn’t talk much, he prefers action over words.” “I won’t.” Liberty was worried that her marriage might have a bad influence on her sister’s mindset and marriage. The way Liberty saw it, Zachary was a great man. He was good to her sister. Well, no one would know whether it would change in the future. Hank was good to her in the past too. Zachary got to the office and was about to get the secretary to summon Josh over when Josh knocked and entered the room.

Zachary was aware that Liberty had been job hunting for a while, but she got nothing so far. It was difficult as Liberty wanted her old job back. This was the reason she had not been able to find a job till this day. Now that she had found out Hank was cheating on her, Liberty would not be fussy with work. Zachary believed she would soon find a job. “This is easy. You could just give her a job.” “Serenity had asked me whether our company is hiring a finance director, but even the finance department is at full workforce at the moment. Besides, it’s not the best idea to hire her sister unless I want to blow my cover. I didn’t help her with that and left Liberty to find a job herself.” Zachary did not feel guilty for not assigning Liberty a post in his company.He was a boss with principles who valued talent. Liberty took a three-year-long career break, so she was rusty in the work operation. It was not easy to get into York Corporation, to begin with. Since Liberty was start

“What’s on your mind?” Josh nosily asked Zachary. Snapping out of his thoughts, Zachary replied faintly, “Not you, for sure.” Josh chuckled. “I’d have to quit if you’re thinking about me. I want to get married and have children.” Zachary glared at him. “I should get back to work. You’ve been overly efficient at work lately. I’m tired trying to keep up with you.” Josh finished his glass of water and got up. “I’m glad that’s finally over.” The employees had had it rough at work because Zachary was jealous, thinking something was going on between Serenity and Shawn. It would only be worse for them if the couple had an even bigger argument one day. With that in mind, Josh prayed that the couple would always remain lovey-dovey. Well, they might not be in love now, but it was only a matter of time. Zachary had developed feelings for Serenity, but he was stubborn and refused to admit to it. As his feelings for her grew deeper, he would lay bare his heart to Serenity without

Several cars drove along and quickly pulled up in front of Serenity’s bookshop. Serenity and Jasmine, who had just entered the shop, looked at the fleet of cars. Serenity’s face fell when her keen eye caught the cars belonging to her cousins. These people were relentless. With Mike leading the younger pack, they walked into the shop. They came bearing two baskets of fruits each. “Serenity.” With a smile on his face, Mike put his baskets of fruits on the cash register and said to Serenity, “I bought you and your sister some fresh fruits.” Spotting Sonny, he asked, “Is this your sister’s son? He looks like your sister.” He then reached out to stroke Sonny’s head, but Sonny shied away, refusing to let the man touch him. Mike responded with a grin, “Don’t be scared, little guy. I’m your uncle.” The rest wanted to place the other fruit baskets on the cash register but since there was no more room on the counter, they placed them on the floor instead. Serenity asked faint

John paused before asking Serenity, “What do you want us to do, Serenity?” As the oldest of the bunch, Mike lectured Serenity, “Regardless of our spats in the past, we’re all one big family. Although your dad isn’t around anymore, he’s still my uncle.“Sure, it was our fault, but we have learned from our mistakes. You’re the bigger person. Please find it in you to forgive us. We promise we won’t ever do that to you and your sister again.” Thanks to the power of the internet, it was easy and speedy to get a handle on certain matters. However, it was also easy for the tables to turn and caused a backfire. Today, Mike could use the internet to intimidate his cousins, but tomorrow, it would be his turn to face a public backlash.People would find it hard to understand the humiliation of being a victim of cyberbullying, hate comments from netizens, and public criticism without experiencing it themselves. Since Serenity tweeted a refute, the Hunts had the whole thing blow up in t

“Do you think you’ll be better off if we all go down together when it comes down to it? You’ll lose your shop and your online business. We’ll team up to give you a poor rating until you’re forced to close your online business.”“Serenity, who’s threatening to close your online business? Who’s threatening to give you bad ratings?” Here to look for Serenity, Elisa got out of her car and caught John’s arrogant threats before she even entered the shop. Elisa was not one with a good temper, so she lost it. Did they not know that Serenity was her love guru? Anyone who had the guts to threaten her love guru was crossing her as well. She would make these cocky and shameless people regret they were alive. Carrying the boxes of desserts from Beans and Cream, Elisa dangled her car keys and lifted her chin high as she walked into the shop. Others may not know Elisa, but John held a senior position at one of Stone Group’s branches. He had seen Elisa a few times from afar during the compa

On the other end of the line, Clive was left overwhelmed by his dear sister. He asked helplessly, “What did John do to you?” “Serenity is my friend and love guru. He’s out to get my love guru, threatening to bring down Serenity’s business and closing her online business by giving her bad ratings. That’s having it in for me. “Don’t you think what his family has done is inhumane? People will criticize us if Stone Group retains such a person at a managerial level. You might think you know some people, but you’ll never know their true nature. Looks can be deceiving.” Clive had no words. He was rendered speechless by his sister’s unruliness. The managing director of Aron PCB had reported to headquarters, verifying John’s talent. John started off with a minor role at Aron PCB and climbed his way up to deputy managing director. The managing director did not want to lose his right-hand man over a family dispute. Hence, he suspended John at the height of the scandal instead of f

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.

“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
