Chapter 6

Author: Gu Lingfei
Serenity said with a smile, “What do I need your cousin for? He has a girlfriend. It’s too late now because the papers are signed! Keep it between us and don’t let my sister know. I don’t want her to be sad.”

Jasmine was speechless.

Her best friend sure pulled one heck of a move.

“There are all those Lifetime movies and romance novels about blindly marrying a multi-billionaire. Maybe that’s the case with you too, Seren.”

Smacking her best friend in the head, Serenity remarked with a grin, “I bet you read all the chick lit in the shop. Dream on about marrying a billionaire at first sight. Do you think the place is crawling with billionaires?”

Jasmine rubbed on the bump and sighed as Serenity had a point. Jasmine then asked, “Where’s your husband’s place?”

“Brynfield.”

“Not bad. It’s a good neighborhood and easily accessible. Plus, it’s not far from our shop. Where does your husband work? He must earn a lot of money since he bought a house in Wiltspoon and in an expensive neighborhood like Brynfield. What are his wages like? Do you need help with the mortgage?

“Seren, get your name on the title deed if he wants you to contribute to the mortgage. It’s to protect yourself. Not to jinx it but you won’t get anything when you guys fall out and divorce since it’s a prenuptial property.”

Studying her best friend’s face, Serenity answered, “You sound like my sister. He bought and paid the house in full, so there’s no mortgage. I don’t think it’s nice to put my name on the title deed when I didn’t spend a dime on it.”

Jasmine replied, “It won’t matter if the husband and wife get along.”

It struck Serenity that her brother-in-law bought the family house before marriage. He was also paying the monthly house loan, but the renovation was paid with Liberty’s money. Still, Liberty was not named on the property deed. With her mind harking back to her brother-in-law accusing Liberty of blowing cash, Serenity began to worry about her sister.

She ought to bring it up to her sister one of these days.

Serenity closed the shop at eleven o’clock at night.

Since Jasmine’s home was nearby and a family member was buying her dinner, Serenity told Jasmine to get on home.

Having shut the main door, Serenity took out her keys and walked to her e-bike.

She rode for twenty minutes until she arrived downstairs at her sister’s place. It was only when Serenity parked the bike that she realized she no longer lived there.

Lifting her head, Serenity glanced at the floor her sister was on and found that the lights were out. Although feeling down, Serenity left the family of three to be and rode her e-bike into the night.

It was midnight by the time she reached Brynfield.

She was welcomed by darkness as she pushed the door and entered the house. It did not feel like anyone lived in this space.

Grabbing her pajamas from the suitcase, Serenity took a hot shower and allowed the weariness to rock her to sleep.

Meanwhile, flanked by bodyguards, Zachary walked out of the Wiltspoon Hotel, which was owned by his family. He had just closed a big deal with a major client and arranged for the client to stay in the presidential suite. With his new wife coming into mind, Zachary decided to take a trip home.

“Sir, will it be the estate or the hilltop villa?”

The estate was the Yorks’ family home while the villa on the hill was a property belonging to Zachary. His permanent domicile was the villa, but he would catch up and have dinner with the elders of the family at the estate every now and then.

“To Brynfield.”

    Peter looked at his younger brother with an amused, half-smiling expression. “So you really don’t want to change rooms?”“No, I’ll stay here.”“Then suit yourself, as long as you don’t mind the noise.”Sheila said, “The patient in the next bed is a well-behaved little girl who doesn’t make much noise. Her parents also speak very softly, so they won’t disturb you, Mr. York.”At the moment, the little girl was outside receiving an IV drip. She did not want to lie in bed and insisted on moving around, so her parents were walking her along the corridor while the IV drip was being administered.Alex said, “It’s fine. I really like children. Having just one child here isn’t noisy at all. I have a whole bunch of nephews and nieces at home, and they’re much noisier.”In short, he was not changing rooms, floors, or doctors. He wanted Sheila to remain his physician.Sheila merely kept smiling.It was only from the chief that she had learned the Yorks of Wiltspoon were exceptionally large

    Grandma May said, “I’ll walk back with the children. Don’t worry, I walk faster than all of them.”She made it a habit to walk up and down the mountain almost every day. Only on rainy days would she let someone drive her down, as the slippery paths made it especially risky that she might fall.In the end, only the two youngest nephews rode back to the manor with Serenity.Meanwhile, at the hospital, Alex’s scan results were out, and there were no major issues.After reviewing the results, Sheila said to Alex, “Based on your scans, Mr. York, there doesn’t seem to be any serious problems.”He could be discharged to rest at home. The most significant injuries were to his hands.“But I really do feel pain in my sternum. Are you sure it’s nothing?”Alex said as he leaned against the headboard, “I think I should stay here a few more days for further checks. Besides, my hands are injured. Both are bandaged and need regular dressing changes. It would be inconvenient to do that at home.”

    She quickly ran over to Serenity.“Aunt Ser, I wanna hug too.”“Alright, up we go, Jiggy.”Serenity freed a hand to pick up her niece.“Lil’ Pie’s sleeping.”“That’s right, she’s asleep. What about you, Jiggy? Are you sleepy? Shall I take you back for a nap?”However, Jiggy looked toward Sonny, who was still swimming in the stream, and refused, “Aunt Ser, I want Sonny.”Serenity turned to look too, then replied, “Then I’ll call him over. He’s played for a while, too.”“Sonny, Lil’ Bun, you guys have played long enough. It’s time to get out.“Jiggy wants you to hold her.”Sonny did not want to get out at first. He was right in the middle of his fun and was about to ask if he could play a little longer, but when he heard that Jiggy wanted him to hold her, he immediately headed for the shore.The nannies began to call for each of the children they were in charge of to come to shore too.Since the older few took the lead, the younger ones followed, and the nannies hurried forwa

    “Yay, okay! You have to keep your promise. You can’t trick us,” Heath said excitedly.Serenity smiled. “When have I ever tricked you? Dad, too. No matter how busy he is, he’s always taken you wherever he’s promised to take you.”After having children, both she and her husband put their kids first and their careers second. Although York Corporation occasionally had failed investments, overall, it was doing well, even exceptionally so compared to other large companies.Grandma May had nurtured all her grandchildren to become talented individuals. She did not necessarily expect them to push York Corporation to greater heights, but at the very least, they had to be capable of maintaining it.So far, she had been very successful. After York Corporation was handed over to her grandchildren, it had reached even greater heights than it had under their parents’ generation.If her great-grandchildren were also well nurtured, the York family could hold onto their position as the wealthiest f

    Once he had grown up a little, Sonny had learned that Jiggy would be the only sibling he would ever have.Both his mother and Dunc had expressed to him that they would not have more children.In fact, his mother had chosen to have Jiggy in the first place because she had become the head of the Fisher family and must have a daughter to succeed her. Sonny was thankful for this because otherwise, he might not have had a younger sister.“Sonny.” Lil’ Pie pointed at Sonny, who was in the water, as she said to Jiggy.Serenity walked over to the two little girls and said with a smile, “Sonny headed straight into the stream to catch fish when he got here.”“Jiggy, Lil’ Pie, I see you’re catching fish too. Did you girls manage to catch any?”Jiggy picked up her little bucket to show it to Serenity. “I caught two fish, Aunt Ser. Lil’ Pie caught two fish, too.”Lil’ Pie copied Jiggy’s action and picked up her little bucket to show her mother the fish she caught.“Oh, wow, that’s amazing.

    The pond was not very large, and the dozen or so fish in it were quite small and agile. The two little girls were having a blast trying to catch them, but each had only managed to snag two so far.Serenity drove straight over and parked the car in the parking space in front of the flower fields. At the foot of Wildridge Manor, there were vast stretches of flower fields. Every day, many people came to purchase flowers or simply to visit, so parking spaces were provided.Serenity and Sonny got out of the car and walked toward the stream. Grandma May had brought the group of little ones to play in the water and catch fish there. Sam had arranged for quite a few people to keep a close eye on them to prevent any accidents.The older children, like Heath, had already started learning how to swim. Jane’s pair of twins were also proficient swimmers, and Laurence was even more so. After all, he was being trained by his masters to become as well-rounded a talent as possible.They were main
