Chapter 771

Author: Gu Lingfei
Besides the Hunt sisters and Sonny, Mrs. Stone also prepared a gift for Zachary.

Although it was not possible for him to become her son-in-law, her niece’s husband was still her in-law, so she was feeling a little more generous and prepared a gift for Zachary too.

“Mom.”

Elisa came down the stairs, dragging her luggage behind her.

Mrs. Stone hurriedly signaled for the butler to get out.

She stood up, walked towards her daughter, and said with a smile, “Why’d you take so long to pack?”

“I had to make sure I packed everything I needed to bring, you know. Where’s Clive and the rest?”

“They haven’t come down yet.”

Elisa lifted her luggage and descended the final few steps of the stairs. Mrs. Stone took a few steps forward, wanting to help her bring it down, but Elisa would not let her.

“Mom, what did you ask the butler to do just now?”

“I prepared some gifts for Liberty and her sister and wanted him to help send them over.”

Elisa hummed in acknowledgment, then said, “Liberty did

    Her sister was right there, and so was Jim.His romantic gesture made her a little… embarrassed.The moment he carried her, Serenity got a whiff of that familiar scent on his body and could not resist touching his face.Yeah, that still felt really good.Zachary was speechless.She said she did not want his thoughtfulness, but when he hugged her, she took the opportunity to take advantage of him.Wait till night fell and she—Zachary hurriedly stopped himself and halted that train of thought, lest he could not help himself.After placing Serenity on the ground, Zachary went to carry Sonny from the car.“Uncle Zak,” said Sonny in his childish voice. As Zachary reached out to hug the little guy, he jumped straight toward Zachary. Zachary reacted quickly and caught him easily before raising him high into the air.Sonny burst into laughter.After teasing Sonny a little more, Zachary put Sonny down and stopped playing with him. He asked, “Sonny, did you miss Uncle Zak?”Sonny no

    Jim had only walked for a few minutes before he received a call from Zachary.“Jim, come back. We need your help again to move stuff. This time, the things have to be moved to the eighth floor. There are quite a few things too, so the moving fee… Seren, how much should we give Jim?”Zachary pulled the phone away as he asked Serenity.Serenity looked at all the gifts her aunt had sent over. It was too much, even if half of them were her sister’s. It would take some time for Jim to move all of them alone, so she said, “Ask Jim to come back first. He can take a look and name a price.”After dealing with him a few times, she felt she was now pretty familiar with Jim. It would be embarrassing if she gave him too little for the moving fee, but it would be a loss to give him too much as well, so she simply decided to get Jim to name a fee.Jim looked like an honest and trustworthy person and did not seem like he would charge an astronomical amount.“Alright. Jim, just come over first.”

    Zachary finished preparing dinner after two hours.Looking at the table full of Serenity’s favorite food he had personally cooked, in a rare bout of whimsy, Zachary dug his phone out to take a photo of it and posted it on his social media.Ever since his last post, his social media had once again gone on a long hiatus.The moment the photo was posted, his friends and important clients not only speedily clicked like, they even left comments.“Mr. York, can I still make it in time if I come over now?”“Mr. York, I’m only just realizing that you’re actually really good at cooking.”“Mr. York, hurry and send some over—I’ll help you finish it.”“Mrs. York really is blessed. I’m so jealous! I slaved for you for so many years but I’ve never tasted a single bite of your cooking before.” This was a comment left by Josh.After Zachary finished posting the photo to his social media, he put his phone back into his pocket and did not see his friends’ likes and comments.He returned to the

    Jasmine looked at Josh as she said this.Josh immediately began feeling immense pressure.As he was bad at cooking, he had no way of presenting a table full of dishes that could rival a professional chef as Zachary had done.In his heart, he griped about his good friend. He was so exceptional that he was about to thoroughly outshine all the other single upper-class men. It was not easy trying to get a wife.“Ms. Sox will be very happy in the future too.”Josh had no skill in cooking, but he felt that he would treat his wife very well. If something came out of his relationship with Jasmine, he would definitely ensure her happiness.Jasmine laughed. “Who knows at present if they’ll be happy in the future? Love and marriage aren’t the same. Things can be super sweet while dating, but after marriage, everything returns to reality. Every single flaw a person deliberately hides while dating will be exposed without fail. A marriage will only last if they can tolerate each other to the e

    Based on the Bucham family’s network, Josh was extremely clear about her entire family history stretching back eighteen generations. He even knew about how many children her grandmother had had and how many had survived to adulthood. She did not even know that.She only knew her father had four siblings and thought her grandparents had only had five children.Once, she had no idea what they had been talking about before that, but Josh mentioned her father had eight siblings. It was just that only five of them reached adulthood, while the remaining four had died when they were infants.At the time, Jasmine was struck dumb.She then returned home and asked her father, but he had no idea either. When she asked her grandmother about it, it was only then her grandmother admitted that that was the truth.In the past, living standards were bad and many people had many children, but most had at least one child who passed away.Her grandmother asked her how she knew about that.It had be

    While Josh’s proposal had failed, elsewhere, Zachary and his wife were happily enjoying their honeymoon phase.After dinner, Serenity sat on the sofa watching television as Zachary washed the dishes in the kitchen.A life like this made Serenity feel very fulfilled and also blissful.After sitting for a moment, she got up and walked to the kitchen. Leaning on the doorway, she watched Zachary wash the dishes.“Don’t you want to watch TV anymore?”Her stare was quickly noticed by Zachary. He turned his head to glance at her before he resumed washing the dishes.“I don’t follow any dramas, and I don’t know which ones are good. I didn’t find any that I wanted to watch after flipping through the channels either. I feel like TV dramas aren’t as good as they used to be. The special effects are over the top. Maybe I’m just old, but anyway, I can’t bring myself to watch anything.”Zachary laughed and said, “You’re so young, but you’re calling yourself old already. You normally come back

    Zachary finished wiping down the stove, washed the rag, and proceeded to wash his hands again. Then he turned to walk toward Serenity and stopped before her. His large hands cradled her face and pinched it lightly a few times before he said, smiling, “I told you, you should go only if you want to go. If you don’t, then you don’t. I don’t mind either way.”Serenity grabbed his hand, walked to the balcony with him, and sat down on the swing.She leaned against his shoulder and together, they looked out at the city lights.“When all the houses below are all lit up, the huge building opposite us goes all dark. They’ve all gone home for New Year’s.”“Tomorrow morning, we’re going back to the old residence. I’ve already informed Nana and there’s already a room arranged for us to stay in.”Zachary had his arm around her shoulders as their heads leaned against each other.That moment was full of warmth and sweetness.“Seren, our old York family residence is really old. I hope you won’t

    Serenity nodded, and also reminded him, “You need to put your jacket on too. If you get sick, there are jabs waiting for you every day.”Zachary was speechless for a moment. “With you constantly monitoring me like this every day, how could I dare let myself get sick?”Those few days of daily injections were enough to strike fear into him for the rest of his life.Zachary went back into the bedroom to get Serenity’s jacket and put on his jacket too.After coming out of the room, they heard a phone ring. It was not Zachary’s phone but Serenity’s. He saw Serenity scoop her phone out and look at it for a long while before doubtfully picking up the call.“Hello. May I know who this is?”Zachary figured it was an unfamiliar number just by hearing her ask that question.The person on the other side of the line did not speak right away.Serenity asked again, “May I know who this is?”“Serenity, it’s me.”A familiar voice filtered through the phone and Serenity’s expression turned ugl

    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. 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.

    “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
