“You know Dr. Jones doesn’t love you, Dr. Levitt. Why are you doing this?”Mary’s heart ached. She said, “Can’t I take you home? Are you scared that I might do something to you?“Don’t worry. I’ll wait till the day you’re willing to accept me. I won’t have sex with you when you’re drunk. I’m not capable of doing such a thing.”Kent’s face was slightly flushed.It seemed like Mary’s words had hit the mark.Kent knew Mary liked him. However, he loved Sheila deeply.He felt like he and Sheila were made for each other.To be honest, he had planned to pursue her not long after he knew her. However, she had a boyfriend at that time.He could not step in between them and ruin their relationship.When Sheila’s boyfriend got together with someone of higher status and broke up with Sheila, Kent was overjoyed.He took the opportunity to console her and criticized her ex-boyfriend harshly in front of her.For the past few years, he had been taking care of her and visiting her family eve
Chapter 4920
Though Sheila did not love Kent and had rejected him, the two had known each other for many years and shared a senior-junior relationship.She did not want Kent to disrespect Alex because he saw the latter as a love rival and ended up being suppressed by the York family.In the eyes of ordinary people, Kent was very successful. To a powerful, wealthy family like the Yorks, however, Kent was just a small ant. If they wanted to crush his career or screw him over, it would be effortless for them.Even though she knew the York family had good values and raised their children to be fair and not abuse their power, Sheila still pleaded for leniency on Kent’s behalf in advance.Alex said, “Don’t worry, I won’t bully others with my power. I’m quite broad-minded. Kent is just jealous that you’re nice to me, which is why he sees me as a rival and is rude to me.”Sheila smiled. “I do know that you’re a magnanimous person. I’m just overthinking it.”“You still care quite a bit about Kent, don

“Mary, he’s drunk and not in his right mind. He probably won’t even remember who took him home.“There’s no need for me to go, and I don’t have the time to do so either.“Please take good care of him.”After saying this, Sheila hung up.The movie started.Alex asked in concern, “What’s wrong?”“Kent got drunk at Supreme Bar. The bar staff called Mary—that nurse who likes him—and Mary called me, asking me to pick Kent up and take him home.“He’s probably drunk because I’ve rejected him repeatedly, but I really can’t go and take him home.“If I go, he’ll think I feel sorry for him, that I’ve softened, and that he still has a chance. He’ll become even more unwilling to let go and give up. But I truly can’t return his feelings. I don’t love him.”Alex assured, “You’re doing the right thing. If you don’t love him, don’t give him hope. Since someone has already gone to pick him up, there’s no need to worry about him.”In fact, he would rather go in Sheila’s stead than have her pick
Chapter 4918
Alex had bought two movie tickets, which coincidentally were for a movie that Sheila had wanted to see but had so far not found the time for.Alex said the tickets were given to him by his Aunt Rosella and claimed that she and his Uncle Martin had originally planned to watch it, but could not make it at the last minute, so they passed the tickets to him and told him to invite Sheila along.Surprisingly, Sheila did not suspect this story.That was because Rosella had cooperated with Alex in lying, telling Sheila that she had indeed bought the tickets.“Your eldest cousin’s wife? You mean, Serenity Hunt?”“Uh-huh.”“I’ve heard that even after becoming the young missus, she still maintains her habits and is very down-to-earth. She’s even influenced your eldest cousin to be more grounded, too.”“Yeah, I mean, she lived that way for over twenty years before marrying Zachary. There’s no way a few years would be enough to erase habits formed after that long.“I think it’s quite nice.

“No, I want to sleep at Lil’ Bun’s house. I want to go home with Lil’ Bun.”Jasmine gently tapped her son’s forehead. “If your dad hears that, he’ll definitely spank you.”“Dad wouldn’t dare hit me. I’d tell Grandpa and Granduncle. Then Grandpa and Granduncle would chase after him and beat him up.”Jasmine was speechless.The little guy was not the least bit afraid of his mother’s threats because he knew he had his elders’ protection.“Alright then, you can go home with Lil’ Bun if you want. But you can’t stay up too late. You have school tomorrow.“Mom’s going to do some shopping with Aunt Seren. Do you want to come along?”“No, you take too long picking things out. We’ll play here. When you’re done shopping, we’ll go back.”Jasmine had no choice but to remind her son to be careful not to fall, and to keep a good eye on Lil’ Pie.She walked back and sat down next to Serenity.The other parents had gotten up to watch their own children, so the two of them were now the only on
Chapter 4916
At that moment, two bodyguards, disguised as parents, were watching Xavier and Heath in the ball pit.Two others were also keeping an eye on Lil’ Pie, their gaze never leaving the little girl for a second.This little girl was the precious jewel of the York family. If anything happened to her, they would have no way to account for it to the eldest young master.Even though the eldest young madam and Mrs. Bucham were both present, they did not dare take their eyes off Miss Lil’ Pie for a moment.“You’re pregnant with your second child?” Serenity asked her friend. “I thought you didn’t want a second one.”Jasmine watched Lil' Pie as she said, “I didn’t want a second child. I was afraid it would be another boy as mischievous as Xavier, which would be a real headache, but I also wanted to take the chance that it would be a sweet little girl.“There aren’t many children in the family right now, so we decided to have a second one. Plus, Xavier is older now; by the time our second child
