Sheila said, “It’s fine. I don’t exactly need you to pick me up after work. I can just ride home by myself tonight.”“But I’ve bought movie tickets. I wanted to take you to a movie. It starts at five past nine tonight.”Sheila thought about it for a moment before replying, “Then wait for me here. I’ll ride back to the hospital first, park it, and then come out again.”“Alright.”She turned around, rode back into the hospital, parked it, and then walked out.By then, Alex had turned his car around and was waiting. Once she got in, he said, “I just gave Marvin a call. I told him we’re going to the movies and that you’ll be back late, so he’ll leave the door unlocked for you.”“I have my own key. As long as he doesn’t double-lock the door, I can get in.”“Still, it’s better to let him know in advance.”“If I’m not home, he won’t lock the door anyway. But yes, he’ll worry.”Alex was thoughtful like that, calling ahead to inform her uncle.Soon, the two of them arrived at the cine

“Complaining to Callum is fine. He won’t hold it against me. But if I insult his wife, he would probably sew my mouth shut.”Sheila burst out laughing. “That’s true. A lot of people say it’s better to offend a Mr. York than to offend a Mrs. York.”Alex agreed. “Exactly. It’s the same for the rest of us younger ones too.”He would rather offend his own brothers and cousins than offend their wives.“You probably haven’t met Rowan much, so you don’t know this, but he’s the most pampered one. He latched onto Serenity early on, and every time a new wife joined the family, he’d immediately go and do the same.“Now all the missuses spoil him rotten. As long as one of them is around, none of the men dares say a word to him. He’s the most perceptive one of us all. Even Zachary has said so.”Sheila smiled. “I haven’t seen Rowan much, but he still seems like a child. He doesn’t seem very settled yet.”“He’s the youngest. We all spoil him. Even if the sky falls, he has eight older brothers

When Chloe was little, she had fair, soft skin, and she rarely cried. That was just her nature. She gave people the impression that she had always been calm and composed.Callia, on the other hand, was like an ordinary little kid. She cried, she made noise, and she rolled around on the floor when she was unhappy. She was very lively and expressive, and because of that, adults tended to like her more energetic personality.“Lil' Pie won’t be up so soon. She usually sleeps until eight or nine in the morning, or sometimes even past ten. Let’s go out and play, Connor,” Heath said.Connor asked, “Have you all had breakfast?”“Nope.”“Then let’s have breakfast first before we play. Otherwise, we’ll just get called back halfway through.”“Okay.”The three little ones went downstairs together.At just eight years old, Connor had become the unofficial leader of the children at Wildridge Manor.When they arrived downstairs, they saw Serenity and Lilian chatting. They seemed to be in a v

“Others say it’s a skill issue, but the truth is, they’re perfectly healthy. Though skill might play a small part, too.”Serenity understood the deeper meaning behind those words, and her face turned slightly red.Well, it was true. Zachary was incredibly skilled in the bedroom.Ring ring ring…Serenity’s phone rang.It was on the coffee table. She quickly picked it up and glanced at the caller ID before saying to Lilian, “It’s Alex.”Lilian signaled for her to take the call. “I’ll go check on my little sleepyhead and see if he’s awake yet. He kept saying he wanted to play with the boys, but the kids are already up, and he’s still wrestling with Mr. Sandman.”With that, she stood up and walked away, leaving Serenity free to take the call from Alex.Alex had called to confirm whether Lilian had truly arrived. He stayed in the city last night and was planning to bring Sheila back to the old manor for dinner if Lilian was there.“Lilian arrived last night. She came with her husba

“Yeah, she arrived last night. Before I came to pick you up, I called Serenity to confirm. Dr. Carden and her family arrived the night before, along with Ben’s twins.“Serenity’s cousin married Remy Johnson. He’s been living in Wiltspoon for a long time, so the Johnson family visits him occasionally and stays at his place for a few days.”When Sheila heard that her idol had come with her whole family, she immediately turned to Alex.“How old is Dr. Carden’s kid? I should prepare gifts for them. I didn’t bring anything last time, so I’ll make up for it this time.”Alex smiled as he said, “You don’t have to. Dr. Carden’s son is about seven years old. If I remember correctly, he’s older than Lil’ Bun, and Lil’ Bun is six years old.” “I do have to, especially for the kids. What does Dr. Carden like? I should prepare something for her too.”“Honestly, I’m not sure. She seems to like everything, and at the same time, she doesn’t seem to care about anything. I don’t think you need to p
