Mr. and Mrs. Sox had no idea that Josh and Jasmine were coming home for lunch. When they heard the car honking, Camila even told her husband, “Did I mishear? Why does it sound like it’s coming from our gate?”Jasmine’s parents were the only ones having lunch. The youngsters had to work and did not have time to eat at home while their parents were also out visiting relatives. Carlson said, “The dog didn’t bark. The honk’s probably not coming from outside our home. Maybe our neighbor’s son brought his girlfriend back again.”“When can our son bring his girlfriend back?”Camila sighed. Their daughter had gotten married, but their son still had no girlfriend. “Why are you anxious when our son isn’t even worried? He’s still young.”Next, the sound of the gate opening could be heard and the couple exchanged glances.Camila put down her cutleries and got up. She walked out of the house. She saw their dog facing the main gate and wagging its tail. “Jasmine’s back, Carlson.”

Whenever her family butchered a chicken, she only ate the thighs and wingettes, and would not eat the other parts. “Young mothers these days rarely experience nutrient deficiencies after giving birth. In the past, I could only eat a few chickens in the month after I gave birth. I wasn’t as fortunate as you are right now. “You bought so many things back again too. I’ve said not to buy anything. It’s a waste of money, and your dad and I can’t finish them.”Camila scolded her daughter for buying gifts again. Despite saying so, she still took the bags from her daughter’s hand. She was worried it would tire her daughter out. After entering the house, Carlson went into the kitchen and brought out extra sets of plates and cutleries. The two bodyguards had their lunch there too. They knew the Soxes never put on airs and were not particular about rules. If they did not sit and have lunch together, Mr. Bucham’s father-in-law would get angry too. “Is there bread, Mom? I want to have

Josh chatted with Carlson after lunch while Jasmine helped her mom collect and wash the dishes in the kitchen. They could exchange some secrets in the meantime. “Seren’s pregnant, Mom.”Jasmine did not forget to relay the good news to Camila. She and Serenity had been friends for many years. Serenity was like a daughter to her mom. Camila had also been worried about Serenity not getting pregnant despite being married for some time. “Is that true?”Camila was surprised. She immediately put her palms together in a gesture of gratitude and said, “Thank the heavens. Serenity’s finally pregnant. We can be at ease now.“You have us to rely on, but Serenity only has her sister. Although Mrs. Stone is her aunt, she’s her extended family. I’ve always been worried about Serenity. Everything’s fine now. I can rest assured. As long as she can give birth, she won’t have to worry about the York family chasing her out.”“You’re overthinking, Mom. Mr. York won’t abandon Seren.

Shawn was reassigned from a subsidiary company back to the headquarters of Lowe Enterprise. He was introduced to the daughter of a wealthy family through his mother, and they started dating. He knew Zachary would only let his guard down around him if only he started dating and got married. “Seren saw Shawn when she accompanied Mr. York to a banquet last time. Mr. York got jealous even though all Seren and Shawn did was greet each other politely. Mom, tell Shawn secretly that Serenity is pregnant the next time he visits. Tell him not to worry anymore.“Also, he should have a good time and nurture his relationship with his girlfriend. We’ll be waiting for his wedding.”Jasmine was opposed to her cousin pursuing Serenity from the start. Serenity was already married to Zachary when Jasmine found out about her cousin’s love for Serenity. Besides, Serenity only saw Shawn as a sibling and did not have romantic feelings for him. Jasmine had advised her cousin to give up. There wa

It was Jasmine’s turn. Ultimately, she and Josh were fated for each other. Josh found her hilarious and had a deep impression of her stunt at the party. Therefore, he readily agreed to go on a blind date with her when Zachary introduced her to him. “Serenity’s luckier than me. Her in-laws are truly open-minded people. Mr. York is also a person who keeps his promises. With him and Grandma May on Serenity’s side, she won’t experience any drastic changes in her lifestyle even after getting pregnant.“Unlike me, she can do whatever she wants. I had to bear my mother-in-law’s displeasure even though I just wanted to manage the bookstore. I wanted to visit the vegetable farms we bought with Seren and Elisa too, but my mother-in-law stopped me because it was too far.”Actually, the journey was only a little more than an hour by car. They could even arrive at the destination in an hour if the traffic were smooth. “Let’s stop complaining. You’re doing fine as you are now. Josh is th

“Don’t compare yourself to Serenity too. She’s skilled in self-defense and has a stronger foundation than you. Some things she does are effortless for her. Learn to be content, Jasmine. You shouldn’t constantly compare yourself to others.“It’ll only upset you.”After listening to her mother, Jasmine’s sadness dissipated. She nodded. “Okay, Mom. I won’t compare myself to Seren anymore. Josh told me that he could provide me with a comfortable life. I don’t have to work with a huge pregnant belly like other women.”“That’s right. Josh really treats you well. Your in-laws are nice to you too. They treat you as if they would a biological daughter.“Maintaining a pleasant mood throughout your pregnancy will be good for you and the baby.”Jasmine nodded. “Wash some fruits and serve them as a dessert. I’m going to prepare some supplements for Serenity. Although she doesn’t lack them, it’s a token from me. I started treating her as your sister long ago.”Camila remembered the first tim

Serenity’s clothes were all dirty, and the strap of her bag was torn off by those people.Thus, she dared not go back to the rented house, afraid that her sister would be upset if she found out.Liberty was in high school and was facing pressure in her studies.Their family did not have much money either.After their parents died in a car accident, the insurance payout they received was divided among their grandparents and relatives, leaving only a small amount of money for the two of them.Liberty said that they needed to live frugally in order to have enough money for both of them to finish university.Serenity felt that Liberty would have to spend money to buy her a new backpack if she damaged hers, so she did not dare to go home.Fortunately, her classmate, Jasmine, who had always been good friends with her, took her back to the Sox residence.Camila was shocked and heartbroken when she saw Serenity.She hugged the little Serenity, comforting her and promising to help her

“Mom, are you going to take these to Serenity now?” Jasmine asked while biting an apple.“Of course. Are you staying for dinner? I’ll come back to prepare dinner after sending these to Serenity,” Camila asked while she opened the car door to get in.“Carlson, come with me. You can help me carry the stuff upstairs when we arrive.”Camila called for her husband.Carlson smiled and said, “I would go with you even if you didn’t ask me to.”He opened the door to the passenger seat and got into the car. After leaving some instructions to Josh and Jasmine, the old couple drove off.Josh stood on the steps of the porch, watching his parents-in-law prepare so many things for Serenity and hurriedly deliver them to her. When his wife came back after closing the gates, he said to her, “They’re giving Serenity as many things as they gave us when you got pregnant.”“Seren and I have been friends for over a decade. My parents watched her grow up and think of her as their daughter. Now that Ser

Lilian often messed with the medicinal herbs her master cultivated, which led to her being chased and scolded by him.It seemed her son had inherited her restless nature.“How’s Sonny been lately?”Liberty had been on edge these past few days because Caroline had been preparing to lure her three brothers into a trap and had not had time to call her son.“Same as usual, but it seems like things have soured again with the Browns.”Serenity added, “Sonny still answers when Hank calls him, but he doesn’t seem happy when his grandparents visit. He doesn’t like going to the Browns’ place, and he doesn’t want to take their calls either.“Hank’s mother and sister are truly incorrigible. They must have been badmouthing you and Duncan in front of Sonny again, which is why he’s upset with them.”During the holidays, Sonny had stayed with the Browns for a few days and started to warm up to them.However, who would have thought that the mother and daughter would start spouting nonsense in f

Once the baby was born, he would apply the knowledge he had learned over the past few months to care for the baby. He was determined to be a competent and responsible father.Serenity released her arms from around him and shifted to her side.Zachary let go, too, allowing her to turn.Then, she planted countless gentle kisses on his face.“Babe, with you here, the baby and I will be just fine. Don’t worry too much,” Serenity comforted softly after kissing him.“You are my rock. If even you are nervous, I’ll start feeling anxious too, and that won’t be good.”Hearing this, Zachary immediately said, “Seren, don’t worry. I’ll protect both of you. Alright, I won’t be so nervous anymore.”He gently touched her rounded belly again. “Lil’ Bun should be a calm kid. He’s not that mischievous.”He felt that the baby’s movements were not too intense.Serenity wanted to tell him that there were times when the baby kicked more vigorously, but she decided against it, knowing it would only m

“Just hit the gym a few more times. Lately, you’ve been spending less time there.”Every day after work, he would come home and orbit around her. As a result, he had less time to work out.It was normal to gain a few pounds eating well and exercising less. Did he really think he could eat anything without gaining weight?The reason he could maintain a model-like physique before was that he exercised daily.“Ow.” Serenity suddenly cried out in pain.This startled Zachary so much that he nearly jumped up, asking anxiously, “Is it stomach pain? Are you going into labor? Let’s go to the hospital right away.”He was about to pick her up, but Serenity stopped him by pressing his hand.“Don’t be so nervous, Zachary. It's not time yet. It’s not happening so soon. It’s just the baby kicking again. His kicks are getting stronger.”As she entered the later stages of pregnancy, the little one inside her was growing stronger. Sometimes, a couple of kicks from the baby could actually hurt.

Zachary, afraid that his wife might refuse to spend time with him at his office in the future, emphasized that he was not busy today.He had already cleared his morning schedule because he needed to accompany his beloved wife for her prenatal checkup.His secretary was well aware of Serenity’s checkup dates. Whenever he saw Serenity turn up at the office with his boss, his secretary would quietly adjust his schedule.Sometimes, on the day of the Serenity’s checkup, his secretary would not schedule any appointments for Zachary at all.Even if appointments were scheduled, Zachary would request they be canceled or rescheduled.Now, in Zachary’s eyes, his wife’s matters were the most important.With Alex now able to share the workload, Zachary felt that he, as the eldest of his generation who had shouldered the bulk of the burden for so many years, deserved a break.Plus, there was the elite team the company had trained; if not now, then when would they be put to use?Everyone was

Tony turned around and left.Only after hearing the door close did Carrie dare to open her eyes.She had woken up while Tony and his son were on the phone, but she did not dare move, fearing that Tony might suspect her of eavesdropping.Just now, when that old lecher stood by the bed looking at her, there was definitely a murderous glint in his eyes. She could feel it.Sooner or later, he would kill her.Carrie was filled with panic. She wanted to escape but was afraid she would not succeed. No one was there to help her.For a moment, Carrie even considered running to Camryn to confess everything, but she quickly dismissed the thought. The reason she ended up in this situation was entirely due to Camryn.She and Camryn were sworn enemies. Their conflict would not end until one of them was dead. However, even if she died, she would drag Camryn down with her.-Meanwhile, in the CEO's office at York Corporation, Zachary, seated at his desk, kept glancing up at his pregnant wife.

“You should have gotten rid of them all back then and cultivated a network of people loyal only to you.” Manny felt that his father should not have spared those people in the first place.Tony said, “There were too many of them, all relatives and friends with the same goal as us. We couldn’t eliminate them all at once.”Back then, he had incited everyone to join him in wiping out the entire main family, sparing neither the elderly nor the children.It was because they were all from the collateral branches, jealous of the main family’s long-standing control, and shared a common goal that his conspiracy succeeded.He had also spent over a decade waiting for the right opportunity.Who would have thought that even after wiping out the main family, he still could not obtain the family seal, token, or totem? Without these, he could not become the true head of the family and could only act as a proxy. Many of the connections loyal to the head remained inaccessible.Moreover, much of the

It was his father. Manny composed himself and picked up Tony’s call as he walked toward his car.“Hey, Pops.”“How’s it going, Manny? Has there been any progress?”Tony was still in Carrie’s room at the moment, but had gotten up and walked to the balcony to call his son.Carrie was still fast asleep, though her face was set in a frown. She was obviously discomfited.Tony had pestered her for the majority of last night, so it would be weird if she did not feel any discomfort.Despite her begging, Tony would not let her go. He even forcefully drugged her to make her mess around with him while out of it. He was simply an old pervert.Before she passed out, she cursed him in her heart. However, she knew that Tony only treated her so roughly because she was just his mistress—a tool for him to vent his frustrations on.If she really was his wife, he definitely would not treat her like this.In the past, she had ambitions of taking Mrs. Longbottom’s place and becoming the real missus

Tati also finished her plate of pastries.She followed Isabella out.“Isa, you’re always so busy and exhausted. If you’re feeling even a little unwell, you should have a good rest. Stay home for the day. I can handle the work you have on hand. It’s the same either way.”Tati wanted Isabella to take the day off so Isabella could spend some time with Austin and nurture their relationship.However, Isabella still declined Tati’s kind offer.She said, “Not today. There’s an important meeting today, and I have two important clients to meet. I’m fine, really. Don’t worry. From now on, I won’t touch alcohol.”Given her current status and position, no one would dare to force her to drink during social engagements.Many people also knew that Isabella would not drink outside her home, fearing that she might fall victim to someone’s schemes.However, Isabella would occasionally make an exception. When she was in a good mood, she would have a couple of drinks.Hearing this, Tati stopped t

Austin still smiled gently and said, “It’s all thanks to Ms. Isabella’s guidance.”He felt that he had indeed improved a lot.Grandma May really understood him well. The wife she picked for him could actually help improve his culinary skills.“After eating the sweets, I feel much better.” Tati picked up another piece of pastry and ate it.Austin quietly retreated, not wanting to disturb their conversation and also to avoid overhearing their private matters.“Just ignore him. Are you really going to skip work because of him?”Isabella added calmly to Tati, “If you let him provoke you, he’ll only cling to you even more. If you act like he doesn’t exist and don’t respond no matter what he does, he’ll naturally give up once he sees that you’re completely unresponsive.”Tati said, “I’m afraid that he’ll go and bother Edith and Eleanor if he doesn’t get anywhere with me. They don’t have the same resolve as we do.”She, therefore, decided to bear the brunt of it.“Every time I see hi
