Serenity woke up hungry. As she regained her senses, she habitually touched her side but did not feel the wolf. She tilted her head to look and saw that the pillow next to hers was empty. There was no warmth even under the blanket. That wolf had gotten up long ago. Serenity thought the sky had just turned bright, but when she took her phone to check the time, she froze for a while and then sat up abruptly. It was almost noon! No wonder she felt hungry. Given that she had slept so long and just woken up, it would only be strange if she was not hungry. Zachary did not wake her up. Serenity quickly took a set of clothes into the bathroom to change into them. Following that, she washed up and hurried downstairs without putting on any makeup. While she was still on the stairs, her phone rang. It was the wolf who had called. “Zachary.” Serenity stopped to answer his call. As soon as she did, she complained about him in a low voice, “You didn’t wake me when you got u

Zachary said, “I hope you can get Nana’s reward of five hundred million.” Serenity pondered the question and said after a while, “Your family hasn’t had a daughter for generations. Perhaps it just runs in the family. Your family might just be fated to have sons only.” Zachary fell silent for a while before he said, “It’s possible. Our ancestor had a daughter but failed to raise her. Ever since that child passed, no one in the family has given birth to a girl. I remember my little aunt watched her diet closely before she gave birth to Rowan. She ate a lot of acidic food, saying that it’ll promote the conception of a daughter. “Her pregnancy with Rowan was also different from her first two pregnancies. Everyone thought she would give birth to a daughter. When the fetus took shape, we sought advice from an acquaintance. When that person said that it was a girl, everyone went crazy with joy.” Zachary recounted what happened that year. “I was a teenager at that time, so I had a part

Josh often did romantic things for Jasmine, so she was not surprised at all. He had a high IQ and EQ, after all. On the other hand, Zachary had a high IQ but low EQ. When Josh gave him relationship advice, he often roasted him for not being open-minded. It was not easy for Zachary to go this far for Serenity. No wonder she was so moved that she slept through the first half of the day. Serenity said sweetly, “He changed a lot for me. He deserves me putting in effort for him.” A married couple who were willing to give and put their hearts into their marriage would last a long time. “I’m so envious.” “You’re the object of other people’s envy too.” Jasmine chuckled. “That’s right. I like to be the object of other people’s envy. I feel happy and blessed ever since Josh appeared. My ears are also free from noise now that my family no longer arranges blind dates for me—even my aunt stopped doing so.” “Your aunt must be smiling from ear to ear now. She really wanted you to ma

Elisa was quick to promise Remy, “Call me whenever you’re here, and I’ll come over and give you some advice. I guarantee your future wife will be very satisfied with your renovated house. When the time comes, you’ll have to reward me with huge compensation.” Remy said with a smile, “You’ll be greatly rewarded.” Elisa looked at his smiling face and realized that he was always like that when he talked—always smiling before he spoke. Remy’s smile was as warm as the spring breeze, making one unconsciously open up one’s heart in front of him. “Okay, I’ll be your renovation consultant.” Remy thanked her with a smile. “Let’s go. I’ll buy you a coffee.” “I usually don’t drink coffee or tea in the afternoon.” Remy was speechless. Elisa was overjoyed when she saw that he was flustered. She laughed and added, “I don’t drink coffee in the afternoon, but it doesn’t mean that we can’t go to a café. Which café are you bringing me to?” “In my spare time, I usually have coffee and lis

“Elisa, are we considered friends now?” asked Remy as he tilted his head.Elisa looked at him and then focused on driving again. She answered with a smile, “We’re friends, and we’re also neighbors.” Remy looked quietly at her side profile. She was a bright girl, and her beauty was known. “Then can I ask you a personal question?” “Go ahead. I’ll answer you if I think I can, but please forgive me if I can’t. Everyone has the right to protect their privacy.” Remy smiled and asked, “What kind of men do you like? Besides Mr. York.” He naturally knew about Elisa’s pursuit of Zachary. After all, he had a good relationship with both York Corporation and Zachary himself. In addition, Elisa was very high profile when she pursued Zachary in the past. Remy could not have not known even if he tried to. Elisa fell silent. “Elisa, I’m sorry. I’m just curious. I think you’re a very nice girl. It’s not your problem that Mr. York doesn’t like you; it’s just that he had met his type
