Semua Bab Guardian-In-Law: Bab 4431 - Bab 4440

“If there’s nothing else, we’ll go train for a bit.” “Yeah. Our body needs some exercise, or else the muscles will go stiff.” The men nodded and went off to training. Before they left, they arranged for someone to stay back to follow Edmund around, ensuring that he was safe. Ryan was much more relieved now that they started to act properly. He then went back to his own work. After Kaze left the mansion that morning, he did not go back to Dwight’s place anymore. He stayed a night at the mansion and found it comfortable. When he walked out the door, he looked around to make sure he was not followed before he continued. He knew he was being protected well because his enemies had not found out about his identity. It was unlikely that they would appear before him again. He headed to work like always—same route, same time. When he arrived at the office, everyone greeted him as usual. Since his department got a huge project and he had earned Edmund’s praise, his stat

The moment Agnes got a call to come to this place, she knew matters were beyond simple. She was shaking inside when she saw Jared but she dared not express it. The last time she came here was because of Darcy’s divorce. Now that she was summoned again, she was worried, afraid that something might have happened. Sky was as innocent as a baby. He even took a stroll on the green lawn on the way in. “I like this place. The view is great,” he said. “If you like, you can stay here for a few days. I can ask the servants to clean up the guest room and you can drop by as often as you want,” Jared said. Agnes was surprised. The mansion belonged to the family elder, and the people who stayed with him would eventually be raised as heirs or as someone who held important positions. She knew her son was not talented enough to run a company. The offer might sound great, but she remained calm and clear, and did not get carried away by the jolt of delight. She knew something was not ri

Jared was happy with Sky’s reply and knew how to assure the boy. “Sky, as long as you stay a good boy, that will be enough. Master Elder is busy lately, and you just have to do as he says,” he explained. Sky was still worried but he dared not cause trouble for the family. He nodded. Jared smiled at him and left the room. Sky would surely be taken care of at the mansion. His sister was working hard to contribute to the family, generating more profits, so they ought to treat the younger brother well. Darcy felt depressed after the call. She thought she could get away from the family’s shackles after getting a deal with Edmund, but she was still bound to them. She was prepared for a worse scenario, but with her mother being sent here, her family would be involved anyway. “He’s a cunning old fox. He’s that old already and he’s still controlling the entire family,” Darcy said angrily. She could not escape, so she must face it. Once Agnes arrived, her peaceful days would be

“Your father and I get along just well. And we have you two. Your brother has a bright future, and he will make us all proud. “You might not understand now, but once you experience it, you will know better. Marriage and giving birth are stages of life that you must go through. If you don’t do it now, you won’t be able to do it when you are older. “The only guy that you can get when you are older is some divorcee with a son or a daughter. You will have to take care of other people’s children then.” Agnes looked worried, afraid that her daughter might not understand her. If Darcy refused to get married now, then her future would be a joke. She had many friends who had encountered similar situations. They were beautiful and thought they still had time as they were still young, so they delayed their marriage. When they wanted to settle down, they were already too old for marriage and pregnancy, so they had to lower their standards. “Don’t be like my friends. They didn't want to

The teacup was part of an expensive tea set and a collector’s item. Agnes was strict with her lifestyle standards and if the cup was not something of her preference, she would never drink from it. Luca knew her preference, so she brought in the teacup to please her. Agnes looked at the cup on the table. She picked it up to have a closer look. It sparked joy in her gaze. “You are a smart girl. You know what I like. This is from Uleania, right? I haven’t seen this brand before.” One of her hobbies was collecting expensive tea sets. She had never used any of her collection but she loved to keep them. She was rich and had time, so she could spend lavishly on things she did not need. “It’s because the chairwoman reminded me of your preference, that’s why I was able to present this to you,” Luca said. She could tell her boss was having an argument with her mother, and as the assistant, she sided with her boss. If she could just ease the tension between the two, it would be
