“Uncle Zack, Aunt Seren.”After getting out of the car, Sonny greeted them with a smile. Then, together with Heath, he went to the back of the car, opened the trunk, and took out quite a number of gift boxes.Serenity and Zachary greeted Kaden first. Then, Serenity spoke to Sonny. “You bought so many things again. My house lacks nothing. We already have piles of supplements we can’t even finish eating, yet you all still keep buying more for us.”After the children grew up, whenever they returned home during holidays, they would buy supplements for the elders in the family. Sonny was no exception. Every time he visited, he brought bags upon bags of gifts.Heath said, “I already told Sonny about it, but both Sonny and Everly insisted on making a pitstop to buy all these supplements. Everly said that since we were coming over to disturb you today, we couldn’t possibly come empty-handed.”Serenity said, “Everly, you’re being too polite.”“It’s just a small token of appreciation. I ho

Sonny said, “Alright, I’ll keep an eye out according to your requirements. If there’s anything suitable, I’ll notify you to come take a look.”“Sorry for troubling you, Mr. Brown.”“Not at all.”Sonny escorted the pair up to the top floor. Only after watching them enter their suite did he leave.Once inside, Kaden walked to the sofa and sat down silently. No one knew what he was thinking about.Everly poured a glass of water for her grandfather and placed it in his hand. She then sat beside him and tilted her head as she asked, “Grandpa, what are you thinking about?”Kaden sighed.“Everly, tell me, why can’t God be a little fairer? Look at the York family. They’re flourishing with children, and everyone is so harmonious. The brothers, uncles, and nephews all get along wonderfully, and no one fights for power or profit.“The elder ones are kind, and the younger ones are respectful. But look at our family. There are only three of us now. God is truly unfair.”After a moment of s

“Mom, did you win any money?” Everly asked casually.“No, I have bad luck at the table and always lose money.”Maddie sounded rather dejected. Whenever she played cards with her siblings, she almost always lost.Her chances of winning were very slim.Perhaps her card skills were poor, and it could be bad luck.She had money, though, and did not care about losing that little bit, especially since she was losing it to her own siblings, so it did not matter.Usually, she would even give them gifts anyway.Everly said, “Mom, you always lose money, so why keep playing?”She even suspected that those relatives were colluding to swindle her mother’s money.“I’m bored, so all I can do is play cards. You’re always so busy and don’t have time to keep your mother company. Your uncles and aunts are all retired and have time for me, so we either play cards or go shopping. But I don’t even know what to buy because our family lacks nothing.”Compared to shopping, Maddie preferred playing ca

At the same time, a business gala was held at a hotel in Havenmill. The guests attending were all prominent figures of the city.As the boss of Longtail Group, Laurence’s status and position were undeniable even though he had never revealed his true appearance to the public. Naturally, he had also received an invitation.For banquets like these, Laurence attended purely on whether his mood felt like it.When he was in a good mood, he would show up and chat briefly with the other business owners. They would drink a couple of glasses of wine before he left.Usually, the entire process would not exceed half an hour.When he was in a bad mood, he would toss the invitation into the trash without bothering to attend no matter who sent it.Given the current position of Longtail Group in the business world, many people were extremely jealous and resentful of him, yet on the surface, they still had to treat him politely.Everyone wanted to know what he looked like. Unfortunately, ever si

Noelle grabbed Roxy’s hand and twisted it behind her back, causing Roxy to cry out in pain.She wanted to scream, but dared not do so too loudly because she cared about her image.After all, she was the daughter of the acting head of the Longbottom family.Roxy thought to herself, ‘This woman actually dared to lay hands on me in public! So many assassins had been sent in the past to kill Laurence and Noelle. How are these two still not dead?’She said, “You tomboy, let go of me! Let go!”Noelle did not move.Manny stood up anxiously and ordered Noelle, “Let go of my daughter!”Seeing Noelle still unmoved, he looked at Laurence angrily and shouted, “Hey, are you just going to let your bodyguard bully my daughter?!”“Noelle,” Laurence called out calmly, and Noelle released Roxy.The crowd, however, was already used to such scenes.The Longbottom family had provoked Laurence more than once, yet every time, they were humiliated by this bodyguard named Noelle. They, too, knew mart
