“Are you not going back to the company today?”Since Rosalie had learned about River’s family background, she decided to change the topic.“I have to go back for a meeting with Ms. Saunders later.“Can we have dinner together tonight, Rosalie?”Rosalie did not say yes. She replied, “I’m also busy, River. My schedule is packed for the next few days. I only have some time during the weekend.“Besides, I haven’t agreed to be your girlfriend. Our relationship remains unchanged.”She would not date him just because she knew more about his family.The obstacle lying between them was not cleared yet.River smiled. “It’s okay. I have all the time in the world to prove myself and reassure you.“Whether to accept me or not is entirely your choice, but I’m also free to woo you in the meantime.”Rosalie suddenly said, “Ms. Saunders likes you. She has high standards. I’ve known her for many years. She had put in a lot of effort to go from being an ordinary employee to a successful busines

“He ran away quicker than a rabbit. I just wanted him to listen and understand his company’s situation,” complained River.Levi was getting lazier.He was lucky enough to have met someone who would not scam him like River. If it were other people, he would have been tricked and unable to receive any money. He could have been forced to sell the shares he had as well.River had the support of York Corporation and did not lack money himself. He could not be bothered to do such a thing for a small amount of money.If he dared to do so, Grandma May would scold him to death if she found out.She said no matter how much one loved money, it had to be earned through proper channels.Only money that was earned rightfully could be spent with a peace of mind.Ms. Saunders said, “Mr. Garcia isn’t involved in the management or business negotiations. Even if he had stayed back to listen, he wouldn’t have understood a thing. We’d even have to waste time explaining things to him, which would’ve

“I don’t need others to believe whether I’m being sincere or not. I’ll use my actions to prove to Rosalie that I like her for who she is, not for her family background.”After all, River’s family was superior to the Lafayettes.He did not tell Ms. Saunders that he was a young master of a wealthy family and was actually of equal social status to Rosalie.“It’s only normal for Rosalie to be on guard around me. However, I’m sure she’ll come to trust me after some time.”Ms. Saunders remained silent. She saw the determination in River’s eyes.The man she could not have was truly in love with Rosalie. She felt sad. After all, River was the only man she was attracted to after all those years, yet such an outstanding man could not be hers.“Would you have liked me if I were a few years younger than you, River?”Ms. Saunders thought her age was the main reason that River had rejected her. He said he did not like dating older women.River smiled. “There are no ‘ifs’, Ms. Saunders.

Serenity walked out of the Wiltspoon airport with the kids under the protection of the bodyguards and nannies.“Dad.”She immediately spotted Zachary, who had come to pick them up. The children’s eyes were sharp, too. Heath quickly pulled his hand from Serenity’s grasp and ran toward his father upon seeing him. He had to run and let Dad carry him first. Otherwise, Dad would only carry Callia afterward.No matter how sensible Heath was, he was still a six-year-old.“Dad.”Callia was also eager to be placed on the ground.Serenity had no choice but to put her down. Callia ran toward Zachary immediately. A bodyguard and a nanny followed her right away.Serenity took her time. She wanted to give the children some space to reunite with their father.Zachary had waited at the airport for a long time.He had arrived two hours earlier and waited for his wife and kids.“Lil’ Bun.”He missed his kids a lot after not having seen them for some time.The serious expression he us

“I like playing with them too. They’re good little brothers.”Despite Heath’s young age, he had the charisma of a reliable older brother.His parents had taught him to love his younger sister and cousins and be a good role model to them as the eldest.“But I like playing with Laurence and Sonny the most. They know much more than I do, especially Laurence. He’s amazing. He’s good at martial arts and studies. He even treats sick people.”Heath’s eyes were filled with admiration upon mentioning Laurence. He also liked his cousin, Sonny. He thought Sonny was better in academics than Laurence.Sonny had taught Heath many things. He also doted on Heath a lot.Indeed, Sonny loved his cousins. Now that he had his little sister, she quickly became the apple of his eye. “Why does Laurence know how to cure sick people, Dad? None of us knows how to do it.”Zachary replied, “He learned medicine. He’s your Aunt Lilian’s student. Lilian is a legendary doctor, so Laurence knows how to treat
