Chapter 2206
Author: Gu Lingfei
“That’s because they’re blind and can’t see a treasure that is right in front of them.”

Remy pulled her into the Stone family villa and spoke as he walked, “I’m glad they’re blind though, otherwise I’d get jealous if I had a whole bunch of love rivals.”

Elisa giggled.

She felt relaxed and at ease with Remy as it was her true personality that he fell for.

After sending the young couple home, Julian left the Stones’ residence and headed straight to his home.

He coincidentally ran into Jasmine, who had been called back by her mother-in-law.

When Jasmine’s bodyguard saw Julian’s car, he quickly pulled over to the side and let Julian’s car pass first.

Julian and Jasmine rolled down their car windows at the same time.

“Julian,” Jasmine greeted.

Julian hummed gently and asked, “Why are you coming home at this time?”

When Jasmine resumed watching over the bookstore, she had always returned home at night.

“Mom called me back. There’s something she wants me to do, so I’m here.”

    The nutritionist did not interfere with everyone’s freedom to eat out. She was invited by her aunt to take care of the family’s diet, so she only had a say over those who ate at home. Her reach did not extend to those who ate outside.Now, her main focus was Jasmine.Josh was the first in their generation to get married, and the baby in Jasmine’s womb would be the firstborn of the next generation. The whole Bucham family attached great importance to this, not just Rebecca.To ensure that Jasmine would give birth to a healthy and intelligent baby, the recipes for pregnant women that she formulated were rich in nutrition. The dishes themselves were naturally of high quality and varied every day. The recipes would not change regardless of Jasmine liking them or not.Fortunately, Jasmine was a foodie and was not picky about food.They always got along well.When Rebecca and the nutritionist heard footsteps, they both turned to look at the door.“Jasmine.”Seeing that her daughter-i

    Theresa glanced at Rebecca and the other did not say anything, so she stopped talking as well.After all, Jasmine was her aunt’s daughter-in-law.The baby in her belly was also the next generation of the Bucham family. Theresa was only here to give nutritional advice.In fact, there was not much that Rebecca could say either. The food was made by her in-laws, and Jasmine did not go back to her home to eat every day either. There was no problem eating it once in a while.“I’ll go to the washroom,” Jasmine said and hurried there.After she left, Theresa said softly, “Aunt Rebecca, will Jasmine blame me for saying too much and being controlling? Pickled products should be consumed less, even for normal people. Pickled food never appears on our families’ dining tables, but Jasmine fancies them so much.“She even ran back to her home to eat it. Are the meals I planned for her aren’t to her liking? It was you who called me here, and I only came because of you and Josh.”Rebecca said s

    However, Jasmine did not expect Theresa to have so many opinions about her.Fortunately, Theresa was just Josh’s cousin. Although she was the Bucham family’s nutritionist, she did not usually stay in the Bucham residence. She only came often after Jasmine got pregnant. Even if she had a problem with Jasmine, it would not affect Jasmine.Rebecca mentioned Serenity, thinking that the York family would also hire a nutritionist to make a meal plan for her daily diet.Maybe they would, but the York family would not control Serenity.A few minutes after Rebecca and Theresa stopped talking, Jasmine finally came out of the washroom.“Jasmine, did you have a stomachache?” Rebecca asked with concern.“No.”Jasmine said with embarrassment, “I always bring my phone when I go to the washroom.”She did not continue, but everyone understood what she meant.People nowadays liked to take their phones when they went to do their business.“Jasmine, you should spend less time on your phone.

    Putting aside his status and family background, his appearance alone was one of the best among men. He was not inferior to Zachary, Josh, and the others.Julian looked at the girl in the photo and could not help but lower his head to kiss it. A dopey smile emerged on his face.So, this was how normal men reacted.He had been single for over thirty years, and this was his first time experiencing such a feeling.In the past, he thought he never had a reaction because his standards were too high, and he looked down on ordinary women. When he was a little older, he went to adult establishments but still no reaction came to him. Only then did he realize that it was not a problem with his standards, but his constitution.However, he did not want to have it checked because of his ego.When he turned thirty, his parents urged him to get married. He also had enough of playing around, so he finally went to a reputable doctor to get himself examined.It was diagnosed that he had hypoactive

    Walter made his way to the sofa and placed the yellow envelope on the coffee table. Sinking his bottom onto the sofa, he turned his head and commanded his son to hurry over and pick a wife. “Dad, I told you. I’m not interested in these women,” Julian replied as he drew close. Walter uttered with a stern face, “You didn’t even look at them. How can you know that you’re not interested in them? I found you girls aged twenty-four this time. The psychic said that the woman destined for you is twenty-four years old this year. I wonder if she would mind the ten-year age gap since you’re a lot older. Anyway, I will help you get the lady even if she minds.” Julian scowled and responded, “If she and I are meant to be, I don’t need your help. I will take matters into my own hands and pursue her.” He was not a helpless man who needed help. Sure, Julian enjoyed his bachelor life in the past and did not want to be tied down by marriage so quickly. Now that he had a diagnosis of his il

    Since Julian showed no positive reaction to the photos, Walter stuffed the prints back into the envelope in disappointment. He dejectedly uttered, “I wonder when you will find the girl. Grandma May is back, so I can meet with her. Maybe I can get her to invite the psychic to tell us where the girl is now.” Julian replied, “Dad, the psychic said that he won’t meet with us or Grandma May anymore since it’s written in the stars. The psychic has his principles. We probably can’t see him even if we try.” Walter had no words. It was true that the psychic said so. The psychic was willing to meet with Walter and give a reading for his son because their paths were meant to cross. It was goodbye since their path ended there. The psychic said the connection between the Buchams and Grandma May was intertwined, so his role in her story was over after meeting them. He asked Grandma May not to bother him again. Although Grandma May was hesitant, she respected the psychic’s wishes.

    “We can’t anymore. The psychic said that it was the end of the road for us and Grandma May, so there won’t be future meetings. The psychic told us not to look for him, and even if we did track him down, he wouldn’t meet us. These clairvoyants play by the book, and it’s all about timing.” Stacy sighed. “I guess it’s a waiting game now.” She wondered and pined for the day she would meet her future daughter-in-law. “The brat could at least start the search or something, but he doesn’t seem to be around. God knows what he’s occupied with. Either way, whatever will be, will be. He’ll get married when it’s time without us pushing him to it.”Stacy added, “It’s not as if we can push him into marriage anyway.” It was out of their hands that their son ended up with such an illness. Julian, still in the study, took a picture of the girl on the keychain. He told his men to track her down. Since he found the keychain at the airport, the girl must be either arriving or departing Wiltsp

    The setting sun caressed Hayden’s face with its rays, but even the sunlight could not melt her icy expression. Likewise for the blazing sun at noon, which was likely to fail in softening her tensed facial lines. “Kevin, I told you I don’t like flowers. Stop giving me flowers!” Hayden said as she shoved the bouquet away so that nothing could come in her path of leaving. Kevin took her hand, but Hayden broke free from his grasp. “Hayden, I’m trying to win you over. Flowers are a must to get me a wife.” Since Kevin followed Hayden along like a puppy, Hayden’s security detail was tempted to sneak up from behind and give him a kick in the derriere. Alas, they could only envision the scene in their heads as they could not possibly lay a hand on Kevin in reality. Donald and Sophia were not the only ones nice to Kevin. Even Hayden tolerated Kevin’s behavior. Hayden may appear annoyed every time Kevin showed up, but their employer had been patient with Kevin. The worst Hayden wou

    Zachary was also worried that Serenity would go into premature labor out of shock. He also persuaded her to go for her checkup in a gentle voice. They could not do anything but wait anyway.Serenity finally decided to conduct her prenatal checkup first. Zachary accompanied her. Just moments after they left, the door to the delivery suite opened. A nurse stood there and shouted, “Is Jasmine Sox’s husband here?”“Yes. I’m her husband,” replied Josh quickly. He dashed to the nurse. “You must save Jas, doctor. Save the mother no matter what.”His family members behind him also echoed, “That’s right. No matter what happens, you have to save Jasmine.”The nurse said, “The mother is fine. It’s just that she wants her husband to accompany her as she’s in a lot of pain.”Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.Josh was about to rush inside but was stopped by the nurse.She asked him to change his clothes before taking him inside the delivery suite.Jasmine was wailing in pain.

    With advanced medical technology, a premature baby could still be healthy if taken good care of in the incubator. Serenity said, “Jasmine should be at thirty-five weeks. I just don’t understand why she would suddenly go into labor. Did she fall at home?“Or did she eat something that made her go into labor?”Zachary said, “That’s most likely not the case. Josh’s cousin is Jasmine’s dietician and keeps an eye on her food every day. There’s no way Jasmine would’ve eaten something bad unless she ate it secretly.”Serenity and Zachary suddenly went silent. Pregnant women had weird appetites. Once they had a craving, they could not go unsatisfied. Sometimes, they would even crave fruits that were not in season. Serenity herself was one of them. Once, she woke up in the middle of the night craving mac and cheese. Of course, Zachary, the ever-doting husband, had to satisfy her request. However, where could he find mac and cheese at that hour?Ultimately, he had to drive to the

    People would reap what they had sown. They would have to bear the consequences of their actions. Sometimes, interfering in another person’s fate would backfire. After chatting for some time, Serenity said, “I have to go for my checkup now, Liberty. Let’s talk again when you’re free another day.“By the way, I’ll get someone to bring Sonny to you this weekend. He misses you.”“Okay,” said Liberty. After the call ended, Serenity put her phone into her bag and stood up. She told the man behind the office desk, “It’s almost time, babe. Let’s go.”“Okay. I’m almost done.”Zachary quickly signed and stamped a document before closing it. He walked over with the document in hand. Serenity and Zachary left the office together. He handed the document to his secretary. The secretary did not expect him to pass the document to him personally. He had thought of entering Zachary’s office to request it later. The secretary watched Zachary and Serenity leave. He could not believe

    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.

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

    “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?
