Rowan was speechless.Serenity chuckled, “It’ll be the same no matter when you see him. Affection is something that’s cultivated. After the baby is born, you’ll have time to hold him, play with him, and the bond will grow—then it’ll feel like you’re close to him.”She could already foresee that after her baby was born, he would become the family’s little darling. The members of the York family were numerous but hers would be the only baby, so everyone would dote on him immensely.Rowan pitifully said, “Nothing good ever makes its way to me because I’m the youngest.”Zachary responded, “Once you get married and have your own kids, you’ll be able to make sure that your child sees you first when he’s born, but you can forget about that for your nephew.”Rowan said, “I’m still so young—it’ll be at least another eleven or twelve years before I get married and have kids. In fact, it might take a little longer, like fourteen or fifteen years. Aren’t you only just becoming a father at thi

After, he added, “Dunc went to see Mom. He didn’t wait for me to come back and went ahead, but luckily, they’re coming back soon. He said he bought me a lot of new clothes and toys. Dad, Mom and Dunc are getting married, I heard it from Aunt Ser. He’s going to be my new dad. Dad, I’ll have two dads from now on,” Sonny said with a happy smile. He even held up two fingers to Hank and added, “Other kids only have one dad, but I have two dads.”When Hank heard that Duncan had gone to visit Liberty and that the two were getting married soon, he felt bitterness in his heart, but he could not say anything.Back then, he was the one who let go of Liberty first. He was the one who had gone back on his vows and turned his back on their marriage first.No matter how bitter he felt, he could only wish Liberty and Duncan happiness and joy. Even though he did not want to admit it, Hank knew that Duncan was a much better man than he was, and not just career-wise because even in relationships, Du

Hank knew the last time Olivia had taken money from him to give to his sister, Chelsea, she went out to eat with her husband, children, and in-laws, without even inviting their parents. When she saw Serenity was dining at the same restaurant, she wanted Serenity to pay for her party’s meal.Serenity refused, so Chelsea called Olivia and asked for money to cover the expense. Did his sister have no money? No—she did have money. In the past, their parents' pension and the allowance he gave them were all used to support his sister's family. Chelsea and her husband saved the entirety of their incomes and probably had up to several million in savings. He used to earn a lot and did not care about money, but now that he was relying on ride-hailing hires to make a living, times had gotten tough, and he had started to care more about money. Although he was very touched that Chelsea saved him and even got hurt in the process when Jessica attacked him back then, it did not mean she could keep t

Hank rarely took the initiative to help take care of Sonny. Back then, Liberty would be cooking in the kitchen and the father-and-son pair would be in the living room. If Sonny wanted some water, Hank would not get him a glass of water. Instead, he would have Liberty come out of the kitchen to feed Sonny water. What kind of father he was!Now that Liberty and Duncan had finally made their relationship public and were about to get married, Hank suddenly wanted to show off his “fatherly love”, worrying that Sonny might end up neglected. He kept saying those ridiculous things in front of Sonny, affecting the child’s mood and making him afraid of losing his mother’s love. How could Serenity not be angry? It was just that in front of Sonny, she did not want to curse anyone.“Aunt Ser.” Sonny snuggled up to Serenity’s chest. “Aunt Ser, I love you and Mommy the most.”Serenity hugged him tightly. “I love you the most too.”“Dad asked me if Mom and Dunc are getting married. Dad is worried

“One year should be enough time. Us York men are all outstanding and irresistibly charming.” Zachary lumped himself in with the compliment while praising his younger brother. He believed his charm was boundless and, truthfully, it was. Serenity turned to look at him with a smile. “Yes, yes, you York men are all incredibly charming. Actually, though, what’s most attractive is your family culture. The men in your family dote on their wives and are completely devoted in their relationships.”They had a good family culture, had good character, and were utterly devoted to their partners—these were all incredibly attractive. Any family with daughters of marriageable age would wish for their daughters to marry into the York family; not for wealth, but for the devoted love of the York men.“What about Sonny?” “He’s already gone off to have fun with Rowan. I don’t know if they’re going wild somewhere in the manor or down by the foot of the hill, but with Rowan watching over him, there’s
