“Why isn’t my uncle back yet?” “He’s at a business dinner. He won’t be back until midnight.” Shawn’s younger sister was still in college. Now that it was winter break, she went traveling with her friends and would be back before the new year. There was no one else at the house. The aunt and niece took a seat on the sofa while Shawn sat beside the pair. He nervously stared at his mother. “What do you want to talk to me about, Jas?” “Aunt Rachel, I want to first put it out there that this is not Serenity’s fault. Please listen to what I have to say before getting mad. You can be mad at your son, but don’t take it out on Serenity.” Jasmine had to first give her aunt a fair warning and assure Serenity’s safety. “I won’t come over to your place if you take it out on Serenity, Aunt Rachel.” Mrs. Lowe replied with a smile, “What is it? You make it sound so somber. Why would I take it out on Serenity? Serenity has been friends with you for years. I watched her grow up. She’s

“Aunt Rachel, I didn’t drive and took Shawn’s car here. It’d be great if you could arrange for the chauffeur to drive me back to the shop.” Holding back her anger, Mrs. Lowe summoned a maid to arrange the ride for Jasmine with the chauffeur. Once Jasmine was gone, Mrs. Lowe slapped her son and lashed out, “Shawn, are you trying to infuriate me? Serenity is three years older than you. She doesn’t come from a good family. Are you blind to fall for her?” “Aren’t you fond of Serenity, Mom?“So what if she’s older? It’s not like she’s thirty years older than I am. How is it that she doesn’t come from a good family? Her family isn’t involved in the mafia. She comes from a family of farmers, not criminals.” Mrs. Lowe grimaced. “I like her and see her as another niece of mine because of Jasmine. I’m only fond of her on the condition that she doesn’t get involved with you.“I wouldn’t have allowed you two to spend time together had I known what was going on in your head.“You better

There were certain things that although Shawn was unwilling to face, he was aware of them. Serenity did not have an influential figure to lean on, but his mother was Mrs. Lowe. The Lowes were considerably wealthier and more powerful than Serenity. There was no way Serenity could survive against his mother’s tactics. The only thing left to do would be to leave Wiltspoon. “I don’t want you to try. You must let go of your feelings for her!” Mrs. Lowe ordered. Keeping to her word, Mrs. Lowe summoned two bodyguards and instructed them, “You are to follow Shawn wherever he goes from now on. Report to me if he ever goes near Wiltspoon School.” Shawn turned ashen. Meanwhile, the Lowes’ chauffeur drove Jasmine to the shop. Serenity had moved all the display racks into the shops and packed up her crafting tools and materials. She even cleared the unfinished groceries out of the fridge and bagged them along with the snacks. She was ready to bring them all back to her house. The sh

Zachary, who was dubbed the petty guy by Serenity, took a few hours of sleep at the office before waking up. He opened his eyes and found a thick jacket draped over him. Removing the jacket, he looked at the time. “It’s nine at night,” Zachary cried, unable to believe that he slept that long. There were a few thermal lunch boxes on his desk. It must be the dinner brought by the manager of the subsidiary company. The manager must have seen him asleep and did not want to wake him. The thick jacket over Zachary must be from the manager too. Straightening his back, Zachary sat in silence for a while before heading to the bathroom to freshen himself up with a good splash of cold water to his face. He walked out of the bathroom several minutes later. Having returned to his seat, he opened the food containers. The food was still warm. He sat behind his desk and dug in. Zachary pulled out his phone and checked his messages. Other than the messages from his senior executives about

Josh had no words. He commented, “What’s up with you two? You were getting along just fine and giving us front-row seats to your public display of affection, but now another fight broke out. No wonder Serenity went to a bar. It was all because of you.” Zachary replied, “Look into where they are right now and how long they’ve been there. Are they drunk? Give me a reply if you hear anything back.” “Alright. I’ll get right to it.” Josh swiftly hung up the call and dove into investigating the girls’ whereabouts. While waiting for an answer, Zachary contacted his private plane crew and instructed them, “Prepare to fly back. I want to return to Wiltspoon in a few minutes.” He did not want Serenity to drop him off at the airport when he needed to go away for business. One reason was he had to return to the office, and the second was he did not have a plane ticket ready. Zachary took a private plane abroad. Following Zachary’s last-minute notice, the crew started flight preparati

Zachary gave up on dialing Serenity’s number. A call from Josh could not come at a better time. “Where are they drinking, Josh?” Zachary went right to the question the moment the call was connected. Hearing the anxiousness in his tone, Josh took the chance to tease Zachary. “Feeling desperate? Do you have ants in your pants? Can’t wait to get back here?” “Josh!” This was the worst possible time to make fun of him. Zachary was so desperate, he wished he had wings to fly all the way back to Wiltspoon. Josh chuckled. “I couldn’t pass up on the chance. Only Serenity can bring the anxiousness out of you.” Zachary had always remained stoic in the face of adversity. To get Zachary restless was not something Josh could see every day. “They’re at Neon Nights. They arrived half an hour ago. Jasmine and her young brother are with Serenity.” Zachary frowned. “How old is Jasmine’s brother?” Why did Jasmine have so many brothers? Although Shawn was her cousin, they shared

“I’m still sober. Another couple of drinks won’t make me drunk.” “You should quit while you’re at it.“We came here to have a drink or two. Too much is not good for you.” Serenity stared at her eerily. Jasmine fell silent for a moment before getting up to leave. She reminded her brother to watch Serenity. A while later, Jasmine returned with a pen, papers, and a glass of wine in hand. “This is your last drink. I asked for a few sheets of paper for you to draw on.” “Jas, Serenity’s drunk. Can she still draw?” Serenity claimed that she was sober but the truth was, she was drunk. Instead of answering his brother’s question, Jasmine handed the pen and papers to Serenity. Serenity took the stuff and started drawing on the paper without taking the drink. First, she drew a ball. Drake was speechless. It was not hard to draw a circle in a drunken state. Drake believed it was a no-brainer. Serenity then drew a lake with way too many wavy lines along the shore. Following

“Is that you, Ms. Sox?” a voice interrupted the trio. Jasmine and her brother turned their heads toward the source of the voice. Serenity calmly drank her wine as though she did not see Josh. “Mr. Bucham?” Jasmine was surprised to find Josh here. Josh explained, “I got together with a few buddies to let loose here since it’s the weekend. I wasn’t expecting to see you here, Ms. Sox.“Do you mind if I sit here?” Jasmine replied with a smile, “Well, you already sat down. Are you waiting for your friends?” She saw that he was alone. Josh sat down and said hello to Serenity. Serenity merely bobbed her head as an acknowledgment to his greeting. “My friends have left.” Looking at the drawing, Josh asked Jasmine, “Who drew this? Can I have a closer look?” With Jasmine’s eyes turning to her best friend, Josh got an idea of the artist behind the artwork. Serenity went on drinking without a word. Taking it as a no, Josh did not pick the drawing up, but he was still able to

“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

Austin replied, “Both Mr. Louis and Mr. Phillip woke up very early, especially Mr. Phillip. He gets up earlier than Mr. Louis every morning. It’s really hard on him, getting up so early in such cold weather.”Sometimes, 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, “Phillip is just afraid he’ll get here too late and that you’ll assume he’s not coming over for breakfast, then not prepare any for him. He's such a little foodie.”The 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 Isabella’s 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, “Are you up yet, Ms. Isabella? It’s time to have breakfast.”Isabella w
