Zachary said that unless it was an outstanding man, he would not introduce the man to Serenityโs best friend. It seemed he was living up to his words.Josh was a little regretful that he came at the wrong time.He looked at Jasmine, who was directing everyone to move Libertyโs stuff. When she saw him, she walked over and greeted him, โMr. Bucham.โโMs. Sox.โJosh smiled back and asked with concern, โAre you feeling better from your cold?โโYes, thank you for your concern.โSerenity quietly took Zachary away so Josh and Jasmine could talk.When they were by themselves, she praised her husband. โZachary, your colleague is quite brilliant. Is he also a director in your company? I saw him when you came out of the hotel.โโYeah, heโs also a director with a very high position. Everyone calls him Mr. Bucham.โHe suddenly leaned into Serenityโs ear and whispered, โHe told me not to say, but since weโre husband and wife, thereโs no harm telling you. Mr. Bucham has won the trust of our

After a lively afternoon, calm finally returned after dark.Back in the day, Liberty was especially attentive when setting up this small home and spent a lot of money on it. Now, all the appliances she bought were removed. She could not fit all of them into her rented house, so she picked some of the commonly used ones to keep and sell the rest as pre-owned items instead of moving them to her sisterโs place.It was somewhat like a farewell to the past.Libertyโs rented house was not cleaned up yet, so it was not convenient to cook. Thus, she invited everyone to a hotel for dinner.It was also a celebration of regaining her freedom.Liberty happily bid farewell to her past. Meanwhile, Hank was not idle either.He went to Jessicaโs rented apartment at nine oโclock in the evening.โJessica, is this all you have?โHank saw that Jessica did not have many things packed. He went up to her and asked her while pulling the suitcase, โHave you finished packing everything?โโI usually liv

โWhich floor is our unit?โโSixteenth floor.โHank carried Jessicaโs suitcase out of the car, pulled it, and took Jessica inside.A neighbor bumped into them at the elevator and exchanged greetings with them, then asked, โMr. Brown, didnโt your wife bring a group of people over to move out this afternoon? Why are you still coming back to live here?โโShe was moving her stuff out.โThe neighbor glanced at Jessica and seemed to understand.He smiled at Hank and left.It was no wonder Hank was chased by Liberty with a kitchen knife for five blocks. It turned out that he was cheating on his wife.The couple should be divorced, right?Liberty just moved out this afternoon, and Hank came home with a beautiful woman on the same night. He would not be so blatant unless he was already divorced.โDoes he suspect something?โJessica was a homewrecker, after all, so she still felt uneasy.Hank pulled her suitcase with one arm while embracing her shoulders with the other. He swept her i

Crack.The phone screen shattered when it hit the ground.Hank hurriedly bent down to pick up the phone and once again looked at everything at home without caring about the broken screen.Jessica also turned on the flashlight on her cell phone and together they looked at the state of the house. Never mind the lack of luxury decoration, it was even worse than a shack.โHank, are we in the wrong house?โJessica was still holding onto false hope.Hank walked inside and said, โThatโs impossible. My key wouldnโt be able to open the door if it was the wrong house.โThis is my house. What happened here? Where are my appliances? Is that all there is?โThe more Hank looked, the darker his expression became.He stood in front of the dining table which he had paid for.A lightbulb moment hit him.He suddenly understood.It was Liberty.โLiberty!โHe shouted up as the thought crossed his mind.โShe smashed up my house!โHank was furious.Jessica immediately said, โLetโs call the p

Hank paused before asking, โCouldnโt you have at least cleared away all the garbage?โLiberty laughed. โThere was a lot of garbage when the house was first renovated too, and I was the one who paid for someone to clean it up. You didnโt reimburse me for that either. Iโm just collecting my money back now.โโHow much does it cost to hire someone to clean up? Why are you haggling with me over that little bit of money?โโWhy shouldnโt I haggle? Thatโs my money. My money doesnโt grow on trees. Why should I give it to you? Iโll get back every penny Iโve spent.โHank was speechless.After a long time, he gnashed his teeth and said, โFine, you win!โโIโm only getting my renovation fee back. Thereโs nothing to win. Your house now looks like what you paid for.โHank was so angry that he hung up the phone. He wanted to throw the phone, but Jessica quickly grabbed it. โThatโs my phone. Donโt throw it.โโDamn it!โHank could not do anything else but repeated those two words.As Liberty ha

Hank was furious whereas Serenity felt today went by spectacularly.After she and her husband left Libertyโs newly rented apartment, she was laughing the entire way home.Zachary was amused. โDonโt laugh too hard or your stomach will hurt.โโIโll still be happy even if my stomach hurts. Hank must be home by now. I wonder what his reaction was when he saw the state of his place. He must have thought he entered the wrong house. Haha, I canโt help but laugh when I think of his reaction.โโLet me join in on the fun too!โZachary then fell into Serenityโs laughing spell.He laughed until he almost hit the street light. He swerved in fright and managed to avoid the collision.Serenity was so startled that she forgot to laugh.When it was safe, she said, โZachary, is your driving okay? I can drive instead. My driving skills are exceptional. Racing wonโt be a problem either.โโI got my driverโs license when I was eighteen. Iโm an experienced driver. Just now was just an accident. I la

โWhatโs wrong, Seren?โZachary noticed something was wrong with her and quickly walked over. He sat down on the edge of the bed, reached out to tug her body, and asked with concern, โAre you feeling unwell?โโMy stomach hurts.โโYour stomach? Are you bloated because you ate too much during supper?โSerenity glared at him.โNo? Then why does your stomach hurt?โSerenity rolled over and turned her back to him. โYou wonโt understand. Iโll be fine if I lie down and bear with it for a while.โZachary frowned.He stood up then bent down to pick her up from the bed again. His handsome face said seriously, โI donโt know medicine, but a doctor does. Iโll send you to the hospital. Donโt try to endure it. Itโll be too late for regrets if you bear with it and it turns out to be a big problem.โโThereโs no need to go to the hospital. I just... It hurts because Iโm having period cramps.โZachary paused before saying, โYour... period... O-Oh. I get it now.โHe quickly placed Serenity back

Sitting up, Serenity took the cup of hot cocoa and slowly sipped on it. She had no idea whether it was Zacharyโs care for her or the hot drink working its magic, but she felt a lot better after the cup of cocoa and another lie-down. By the time Zachary was back with something to relieve her pain, Serenity was scrolling the news on her phone. โWhy are you on your phone when youโre sick?โ Zachary drew close and snatched the phone out of her hands before stuffing the pain-relief medicine into her hands. He said, โItโs late. The pharmacy was closed. I went to the nearby hospital and got a doctor to prescribe you some pills. Take some and go back to bed.โ Lifting her chin, Serenity quietly stared at him. โWhatโs the matter?โShe jolted up and stood before him, bringing her arms around his waist while emotionally uttering, โYouโre so good to me, Zachary.โ As Zachary embraced her, he could guess that she must be feeling better after a cup of cocoa. He dotingly remarked, โYouโr

Zachary, afraid that his wife might refuse to spend time with him at his office in the future, emphasized that he was not busy today.He had already cleared his morning schedule because he needed to accompany his beloved wife for her prenatal checkup.His secretary was well aware of Serenityโs checkup dates. 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 Serenityโs 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 Zacharyโs eyes, his wifeโs 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. However, even if she died, she would drag Camryn down with her.-Meanwhile, in the CEO's office at York Corporation, Zachary, seated at his desk, kept glancing up at his pregnant wife.

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

It was his father. Manny composed himself and picked up Tonyโs call as he walked toward his car.โHey, Pops.โโHowโs it going, Manny? Has there been any progress?โTony was still in Carrieโs 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 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? Itโs time to have breakfast.โIsabella w
