Hank quickly spotted Luke, Olivia, and Sonny. The family of four chatted with the residents for a while before heading home. Back home, Sonny did not sit around for long. He told Hank, “I've got to go, Dad. I don’t have any plans or work tonight, so I’m getting some early rest.” It was nine at night. Usually, this time was still very early for him, but without any social obligations, he wanted to turn in early. The Browns were reluctant to see him go but knew better than to ask him to stay. Olivia held his hand, urging him to visit more often when he had the time. “Jessica, pack some fruit for Sonny to bring home.” Olivia recalled that Jessica bought some fresh fruit from the supermarket, so she told her to pack some up for Sonny. “I’m good, Grandmom. I’m stocked up at home.” Sonny declined Olivia’s kind gesture. “It’s okay, Jessica. Keep the fruit for yourselves.” He knew that Jessica would splurge on the pricier, better-quality fruit when he came around. Under norma

“I’ve bought a lot of fruit during my grocery run, so there’s no need to get more. Sonny barely eats any,” Jessica said. “The four of us can’t finish that much anyway.”Only Luke and Olivia would look for something to munch on while watching TV. “Alright. I’ll get going then.” “Go on.” Hank turned to head to the elevator as Jessica stepped back into the apartment. With the door closing behind her, her tense nerves relaxed. Finally, she could be alone for a while. She went to the kitchen to do the dishes and tidy up before sitting on the living room sofa. She turned on the television to watch the news. Normally, she would not get much of a chance to relax on the sofa. Luke and Olivia would be there, occupying the seat and the television. Not wanting to share the same room with them, Jessica would either be in the kitchen or the bedroom. The only exception was when Hank was around. Jessica’s favorite thing to do was grocery shopping because she did not have to take Oli

“I’ll talk to my parents. The past is in the past. Besides, it wasn’t just your fault. I was at fault too. In fact, the biggest mistake was mine.“You were young back then and had little life experience. That was why I was able to fool you so easily. I was the one who was unfaithful in my marriage. I ruined your life as well as my own.“We both paid the price for the mistakes we made in our youth, so stop dwelling on the past and move forward. It’s enough as long as we can enjoy a peaceful old age together.”Thinking back on those years made Jessica’s eyes redden. She had also hoped to settle down in the big city through marriage. She had been attracted by Hank’s high income and the apartment he owned in Wiltspoon.Even when the property prices fell, the apartment they lived in barely lost value because of its location and proximity to good schools.When Liberty divorced Hank, she smashed up all the renovations. After Jessica married into the family, they renovated the place again

After dinner, the two elders asked Sonny to accompany them downstairs for a walk.Sonny agreed.He did not have any plans that evening, so he had the time. Taking a walk with his grandparents would also give him a chance to relax.He had been working nonstop and had not truly relaxed in a long time.Hank also wanted to join them, but the dishes were not done yet, so he stayed with Jessica to clean up.“Hank, you should go with them. I’ll handle things here,” Jessica said thoughtfully.“It’s rare that Sonny has time to spend with you. He’s leaving on another business trip soon, and then he’s flying to Havenmill. Who knows when he’ll be back.“The next time he has time to go on walks with you will probably be during New Year’s, but then his mother will come as well, and he’ll be visiting his aunt’s family to spend time with his cousins. He won’t have much time then either.”Every Christmas and New Year’s, Sonny would only spend a few days with the Browns. He never had festive mea

“Thanks, Dad.”Sonny helped Olivia into her seat, then said, “I’ll go wash my hands.”By the time he returned, Jessica had already served everyone a bowl of soup.Sonny had intended to serve the elders himself, but since Jessica already did it, he thanked her and sat beside Hank. Hank was on his left while Luke was on his right. Olivia sat on Luke’s other side.“Sonny, hurry and try the chowder,” Hank said expectantly.Sonny picked up his spoon and took a sip.“How is it? Is it good? Last time, you said my soup was missing something, so I’ve been making it over and over again. Jessica got so tired of it she almost got sick, but I think I finally got it right.”Jessica added, “Sonny, you have no idea. Your grandparents and I were all afraid of soup. Your dad made this chowder every single day. He only stopped after all of us agreed that it tasted good.”The elderly couple nodded in agreement.“Your dad said you’re always so busy and use your brain so much, so he wanted to mak

Sonny turned to Luke instead. Olivia always talked about family matters, and most of her words circled back to urging him to get married.“What else could your granddad be up to? He’s just an old man. All he does is watch TV after eating, or he goes downstairs to play chess and brag with the other old men.”Luke glared at Olivia. “Playing chess is better than dancing. You ladies are always disturbing the neighbors and getting complaints.”“We only dance from seven-thirty to nine in the evening. Even if it’s noisy, it won’t affect anyone’s rest. I bet those people are just jealous that we old ladies are having fun exercising.”Olivia did indeed go dancing regularly.She was old now, and her husband had his own hobbies. She felt bored, so she joined the neighborhood dancing group.It was easy to cause a disturbance, but they kept to a schedule and almost always finished before nine o’clock at night, so they would not interfere with anyone’s rest. They would even suspend their dan

This book is dragging way to much. I was ok at first with the other characters stories but now. Why give Remy a love rival? There was no need to introduce new characters when you already have so many unfinished story lines. I have spent close to $200. That is ridiculous. But now I’m invested.
very true. it's that simple. why the hell go round in circles if not for being greedy
I go with Alice. Learn to end your story If no development is going to happen for your characters. I am disappointed for reading less than before ......️
Facts.........
When are we going to get the rest of the story ???
What in the hell does serialized mean. So we get a chapter a day?? Give me a break. How about if I write the end of the story right here in comments. Sounds like everyone else feels the same way. I will NEVER spend another cent on this sight and will go to all the other sights and warn readers
Please give the reader some closure on this story. I’ve made an investment in this group of characters to the tune of well over $150 which is ridiculous. Give Serenity a baby. Give Camryn her sight. Give Duncan his family. Give Elisa Remy and let them all live happily ever after.
Please author wrap up these relationships, they are going nowhere no headway. This story was so good, but now just dragging and not very interesting. The little content you give us daily never solves anything and never moves the story forward.
I loved the book til it has gotten away from seemed to be the main topic, Serenity and Zach. You have gone all over the place. Would love to see you stick with the name of the book and come to a conclusion. Want spend any more money on your books. To long and chasing rabbits.
I hope youcan give dunc lib and soony a happy ending i like there story thus far but its dragging alot?!,
I’ve invested so much money in this book and I’ve become more and more dissatisfied with it. Author can you put more content please?
What the matter with you this author. Why are you so hard. Can’t you find it in your heart and give us a little more chapter.
