“Callia, come on, I’ll take you over to play.” Oliver stood up and went to pick up Callia.

Callia stretched out her arms toward him, willing to be carried.

The adults did not stop the two children.

After leaving the pavilion, Oliver put Callia down and said, “Callia, you’re getting a bit heavy. I can’t carry you anymore. I’ll piggyback you. I can go much farther that way.”

Lilian said, “Good thing Callia is still young. If she were older, she’d slap this brat. He’s basically hinting that she

    “You’re back, Tony.” Spotting Tony, Manny, and Roxy, Susan got up and approached them as if she had found support. Tony made a beeline for Susan and sat where she was seated. Manny and Roxy did not have any place to sit. Susan lost her seat, too. No one offered their seat to her. It was Manny who felt bad for Susan because she could not be on her feet for too long at her age. He asked for a chair and placed it next to Tony. Susan took a seat on the chair while Manny sat on the armrest of Tony’s sofa. Roxy was a young family member. Since no one gave up their seat to Susan or Tony, the chances she could get one were nil. Manny unleashed hell in his mind. Laurence had not even assumed power. However, no one offered him a seat when he, the acting head, returned. These people must think that Manny’s reign was over. Even if Manny were to step down today, he would still be in control of Longbottom Corporation. Surely, Laurence would not oust him from the company right away.

    It did not matter as the senior family members were in the same boat as Tony and Manny. Once the real head assumed power, Manny would no longer wield authority. He would just be a regular member of the family. The only exception was if Laurence allowed Manny to keep his job at Longbottom Corporation, but it was unlikely. It was only a matter of time before Manny was stripped of his position. Before Laurence even showed his face, he was already going head-to-head with Manny. Now that Laurence had the upper hand, he would not tolerate Manny staying in the company. Those who showed loyalty to Tony and Manny would not have a place once the father and son lost power. Dread washed over them because their good days were about to come to an end. They hoped that Laurence would not become the head of the family. It was their wish that Manny could finally assume the leadership role. Manny grimaced hard, and Tony’s expression was equally grim. Tony and Manny had been the acting heads

    “It’s true that you look remarkably like the late family head who passed away decades ago, but even those unrelated by blood can share a resemblance. How can you prove you’re the son of the late family head?” Laurence said solemnly, “Without the family heirlooms, I wouldn’t even show my face around here or call every family member here.” The mention of the bloodline was such a low blow since his immediate family was dead. Laurence was aware of the family rules. Susan’s attempt to use the bloodline against him would not work. Susan scanned the room before her gaze fell on Laurence’s handsome face. Laurence kept his cool, looking like he had everything in the bag. She knew that a DNA test would not hold Laurence back. Still, she said, “Since you have everything, why don’t you show us the totem?” The totem was the key. In any case, the totem had always been carefully protected by the successive family heads. The totem would only be shown to everyone when a new head was takin

    Roxy tore into Laurence too. The fact that Laurence got back to Havenmill more quickly caught them off guard. “Grandpa, we have lost the upper hand.” Tony replied, “I know.” They were backed into a corner. Laurence was far more cunning than they had imagined. It was bad enough that they could not get a good read on him. After years of rivalry, Tony thought he knew Laurence inside out. Yet today, Tony realized there was a lot more to him. One little mistake, and they could lose their lives. “It’s so frustrating,” Roxy murmured under her breath. Ignoring her, Tony sank his back against the seat and closed his eyes. His mind was busy figuring out ways to turn the tables. He needed to get out of the deadlock. Susan sat on an armchair in the huge living room while Laurence took the couch. Noelle, along with the bodyguards, stood behind him. The senior family members were seated while others stood, packing the living room to the brim. The crowd spilled beyond the livin

    The fact that Laurence could summon the whole family to be under one roof in a short amount of time sent a shiver down Susan’s spine. She suspected that Laurence had been in touch with the family members. Laurence, a Longbottom, was the CEO of Longtail group, and the company had established itself in Havenmill for a few years now. If Laurence knew about his history, he must have started planning the moment he set foot in the city. Well, that would not surprise Susan as much. However, terror gripped her as Laurence might have been interacting with the family members right under her nose. “We are back in Havenmill. It will take us half an hour to reach home. The traffic is horrible, with some parts of the road in a gridlock.” Tony added, “That’s a norm in the city. You know that. Don’t panic. Keep your composure. We knew he was coming. So long as he provides the heirlooms, he will be the head of the family. “So what if he proves to be a Longbottom? Shouldn’t he take a DNA test?

    Tony said, “I never brought it up. I wouldn’t want to put family at risk.” He had a deeper bond with Susan’s offspring. Susan had built the empire alongside him and had been his biggest supporter. Susan’s family had provided a lot of resources as well. It was true that Tony had cheated on her more than a handful of times, but he had never neglected Susan. His connections, resources, and assets practically belonged to Susan’s children. It was his way of compensating Susan for turning a blind eye. That was what Susan had proposed back then. So long as Tony gave everything he had to her children, she could not care less about the lovers he had. Her only wish was that these mistresses would not carry a son for him. Since Tony already had a son, he did not need another son to take care of the family. He was allowed to have daughters out of wedlock. Most of the Longbottom girls did not have access to the family’s core businesses. Their assignment was to marry well and provide f

    “Congratulations, Serenity,” said Imogen with a smile. “I’ve been busy these days. I just came back from a business trip, so I can’t go over to visit you. You have to inform me when the sip and see showers will be. I’ll definitely be there.”Serenity replied, “I’ll invite you. Should I ask Dylan

    “Mom, do you really think Manny Longbottom genuinely likes me? What he likes is the power, money, and influence our family has.“His so-called affection isn’t real. He just thinks I’m an easier target than Isabella, which is why he’s been pestering me nonstop.“Anyway, don’t mention Manny Longbott
