Chapter 561

Author: Gu Lingfei
Sitting up, Serenity took the cup of hot cocoa and slowly sipped on it.

She had no idea whether it was Zachary’s 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.

“Why are you on your phone when you’re sick?”

Zachary drew close and snatched the phone out of her hands before stuffing the pain-relief medicine into her hands. He said, “It’s 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.”

Lifting her chin, Serenity quietly stared at him.

“What’s the matter?”

She jolted up and stood before him, bringing her arms around his waist while emotionally uttering, “You’re so good to me, Zachary.”

As Zachary embraced her, he could guess that she must be feeling better after a cup of cocoa. He dotingly remarked, “You’r

    Out of everything Zachary had said to Serenity, the point that caught Serenity’s attention was money. His wife reckoned that he, the heir of the Yorks and the head of the multi-billion-dollar York Corporation, had no money… Letting loose of her, Zachary got up and walked away. Serenity blinked her eyes. Was the petty guy angry again? She got up too, but instead of cheering him up, Serenity poured herself a glass of water and downed the pills he bought. He paid no heed to his appearance and wore his dressing gown and loafers to get her something to help with the pain. It would be a waste of his effort if Serenity did not take the medicine. It would probably fuel his anger too. Zachary soon returned to her side. “Put your hand out.” He ordered. “What’s the matter?” Lifting her chin, Serenity watched as he took out a red jewelry box. She asked hesitantly, “Is this a ring?” Zachary opened the jewelry box and grabbed her left hand. Taking the gold ring out of the box,

    Zachary held Serenity, intending to meet her in dreamland. After closing his eyes, something abruptly came to mind. He gently peeled away from Serenity and sat up. Zachary reached out to grab Serenity’s phone on the bedside table. He posted the photo on Facebook to announce he was married within his circle. The photo would definitely get out in the open. Zachary was not afraid of the photo getting circulated because the photo only showed a pair of hands. It would protect Serenity from the media vultures for now. However, Serenity’s post on Facebook might be seen by Elisa.Since Serenity and Elisa were close, the girls would have added each other on Facebook. Clive could see his photo through others while Elisa would find the photo on Serenity’s Facebook. By making a comparison, Elisa would realize that Serenity was his wife. Zachary could not let Elisa know about him and Serenity for now. Serenity and Mrs. Stone had done a DNA test, and the results would be out in two

    “That’s so considerate of Zachary.”Serenity took the clothes but was not in a hurry to get out of bed. Instead, she held the clothes in one hand and her phone in another to check her Facebook out of habit. No one sent a message last night, but a few liked her stories. Nevertheless, she limited her Facebook posts and stories to a few of her closest friends. She did not want those fellows in the same trade to access her personal life because she preferred to keep her privacy that way. Although Serenity often posted on Facebook, she tended to post on stories as they would be gone after a certain amount of time. Zachary was the first to like her post last night.Serenity was dumbstruck. Did she allow him access to her Facebook posts and stories when she added him? Maybe she forgot to limit Zachary’s access when she first added him on Facebook. Thinking back, Serenity did not publish anything other than her crafts and flowers on the balcony. She felt at ease and relieved that

    Serenity’s heart melted at Zachary’s warm gestures while on the other side, Elisa’s spirits were dampened as she was given a rude awakening before she even got out of bed. As Zachary changed the settings on Serenity’s Facebook, Elisa did not see the photo on Serenity’s stories. It was her sister-in-law who showed her the photo. Her sister-in-law, Alice, knocked on the door and entered her room when Elisa just woke up. Alice quietly tapped on a picture on her phone and showed Elisa. Since Elisa had just gotten up, she could not understand the meaning behind her sister-in-law’s actions. Elisa asked, “Alice, who’s showing this mushy stuff online? Are you trying to get under my skin for being single by showing it to me?”Alice stared at her without a word. In fact, Alice gave her blessing to Elisa to fight for true love. As Zachary was outstanding in every single way, he would make the perfect couple with Elisa. Alas, Zachary was not into Elisa. Elisa had tried to move on,

    Feeling bad, Alice gave Elisa a hug and consoled her, “Elisa, you should stop yearning for him since Zachary’s married. He’s not the only good man on earth. You’ll find better men once you let go of him.“You’re a great girl to me, Elisa. Don’t beat yourself up just because Zachary doesn’t like you. Take my advice. Forget Zachary. Your brother and I will find you a good man who is better suited for you and yours alone. “I promise you will live happier than Zachary. It might not be all sunshine and roses for the woman to marry a stoic man like Zachary. Think about it. Who would want to be with an aloof man?” Elisa bit her lips, refusing to shed tears. Worried Elisa might draw blood from the furious biting, Alice ran her mouth about her husband. “Clive is an *sshole for making me a meanie bright early in the morning. Don’t do that, Elisa. You’ll only hurt yourself.“Cry it out if you’re feeling sad. Cry it all out. I’m not an outsider. You’ll feel better after crying.“How about

    “That’s what I admire the most about you, unlike some people who don’t care if others are married. They find someone they fancy and come in between the marriage of others under the pretext of finding true love. Those people disgust me the most.” Alice was speaking from the heart. She embraced Elisa as her in-laws would because her sister-in-law had good qualities. Alice would not even bother if Elisa was not a decent person. “I’m fine, Alice. Go and catch up on sleep. Tell my brother not to worry about me. It’s not like I can never find a man.” “Alright. I’m heading back to my room. Do you want to go back to sleep?” “Nah. I’ll go to spend some good time with Serenity later. That reminds me, the pastry chef made some great desserts yesterday. Is there any left? I want to bring some to Serenity and Jasmine. They have a thing for desserts.” These girls were just like her sister-in-law. Previously, Elisa’s family did not have a personal pastry chef as their chef could take

    Clive sighed. There indeed was bound to be regret in life. …Serenity went to her sister’s new place to pick Mrs. Lane and Sonny up before heading to the shop with Zachary. She did not take a ride in Zachary’s car but since he insisted on escorting her by driving, she could only accept his kind gesture. Sonny was in a much better place with his mother spending time with him. Now that he was willing to be in Mrs. Lane’s company, Liberty could finally go back to work. Liberty could not take a long leave since she was still on probation. Once at the shop, Zachary reminded Serenity, “The Eternal diamond ring.” Serenity replied, “I’ll put it on now. I promise it will always be on my finger.” She then went behind the cash register and opened the drawer with a key. The expensive diamond ring sat quietly in the corner of the drawer. Zachary watched with a grimace. She was so nonchalant with the ring. Serenity pulled out the ring and wore it on her ring finger. She had

    Elisa thought she was seeing things. Zachary traveled around in a Rolls Royce with a convoy of black personal security cars. Besides, there was no way Zachary would be here. No one in his family was in Wiltspoon School. Elisa put the matter behind her. Upon reaching Serenity’s bookshop, Elisa pulled up as Serenity carried Sonny out. “Serenity, how do you know I was here?” Elisa got out of the car and added with a smile. “You even came to greet me with Sonny.” “Nah. I’m taking Sonny to the supermarket.” Elisa drew close and reached out to carry Sonny, but Sonny turned away and pulled his arms around Serenity’s neck. He said, “I want Ant Swer.” Serenity explained, “Sonny is getting better, but he only wants people who are close to him.” “The Browns are a real piece of work!” Elisa cussed the Browns as she did not get to hug the adorable Sonny. She asked, “Has your sister divorced Hank?” “They split up yesterday. She got the divided assets and renovation costs back.”

    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.

    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 Serenity’s 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 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

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.

    “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
