Chapter 2640
Author: Gu Lingfei
Caroline looked toward Hunter in disbelief.

Hunter felt ashamed.

Most parents would conceal their mistakes and keep their children in the dark. They did not want their children’s impression of them to be ruined.

However, Belinda had made his children and daughters-in-law witness his shame. His wrongdoings were exposed, and he could never raise his head proudly around them again.

Luckily, his grandchildren were not around. Otherwise, he could never face them too.

“Mom.”

Caroline quickly sat beside Belinda and consoled her.

“Mom, Dad may not have been thinking clearly at that time. He loves you so much. He might’ve fallen into a trap or was set up by that woman.”

Hunter went along with Caroline’s assumption and pushed all the blame to that woman.

Belinda was about to light up another cigarette but was stopped by Caroline.

“Smoking isn’t good for your health, Mom.

“I know you’re angry and sad, but you can’t punish your own body over Dad’s betrayal. You should stop smoki

    The Clark brothers dared not breathe heavily. Belinda had been nice to them all along. Although neither of them was an heir to the Fisher family and they took on their father’s surname instead, they were still young masters of the Fishers. Most people regarded them with respect as well. They also held important positions in Fisher Enterprise, which had provided them with money. While Caroline also held a high position in the company, she had to bear Belinda’s wrath every day. On the other hand, Belinda had never scolded the brothers unless they brought it upon themselves or committed a grave mistake. Nevertheless, they desperately wished to turn invisible when dragged into their father’s mess. They did not want to face their mother’s anger. The brothers knew how possessive she was of Hunter. Hunter was the poorest person in the family; even a maid had more money on their hands than him. “Which of you gave Hunter money? You better come clean with the exact amount you gav

    When the Fisher siblings were young, the three brothers often got into trouble and therefore scolded or punished. On the other hand, Celine always got away unscathed. Belinda glared at Celine coldly. A wave of fear swept through her. She had no choice but to go to her brothers’ side and kneel unwillingly. She scolded Hunter mentally for dragging her into the mess. Never had she thought he would ask for money to hook up with other women. She had given him the money to relax while Mom was not around at the thought of how he had been restrained by Mom all these years.However…She felt wronged. “Slap yourselves,” Belinda ordered. Hunter was bitter. “Honey, my face is all swollen from the beating you gave me just now.”“Are you going to do it yourself? Or should I do the honors?”“I’ll do it myself. You don’t have to move, Honey. I’ll feel bad if you get tired or feel pain from hitting me.”Hunter quickly slapped himself. However, the hatred in his heart for the woman gr

    “Yes, Mom.”Emma finally had a chance to get revenge on her fake sister-in-law. Ava and Ellie said, “Mom, we want to help Cece too.”Celine glared at her sisters-in-law. Did they think that Mom would back them up?She was her mom’s daughter, while they were just daughters-in-law. In most cases, daughters would be favored over daughters-in-law.Belinda glanced at them and said, “Emma is enough. You two can watch.”They replied, “Okay.”Emma walked up to Celine. Celine raised her head and said, “Please be gentle, Emma. I’m scared of the pain.”“If you don’t want Emma helping you, you should put in more strength yourself.”Celine was speechless. Emma would surely make her face swell.“I’ll do it myself, Mom. I don’t want to trouble Emma,” said Celine hastily. Belinda did not say a word. Celine thought it would be worse for Emma to hit her than exert force herself, so she no longer pretended and slapped herself hard as her brothers did. Slap!It hurt. Slap.Celin

    “Once you’re outside, your survival will depend on you alone. Don’t think I’ll go soft on you just because you’re my children. Those who betray me never end up well.”“We’re sorry, Mom. We’ll never give Dad any money again.”Adrian quickly repented and made a promise. The rest followed his lead. As Belinda mentioned, she had provided everything they owned. If they were to lose their identity as a young master of the Fishers and be expelled from the family and company, they would be nothing. No matter how deep their relationship with Hunter was, they would still choose money and status over family. Their father was a disappointment. He had the audacity to take their money to flirt with other women. Did he not know how fierce their mom was?“Break off all the love affairs you have. I’ll kick anyone who has lovers or mistresses out of the family.”When Belinda knew her sons were cheating on their wives, she did not say much or punish them. At most, she would give Caroline acce

    Caroline stuffed the ice pack she brought into Hunter’s hands for him to place on his face back in his room. He took it and hurried upstairs. Belinda and Caroline were the only ones left in the living room. Caroline sat beside her mother and comforted her. “Dad knows he’s wrong, Mom. He’ll never do it again. Don’t be sad.”Belinda sighed. She said, “Your dad must have a lot to say about me, but he doesn’t dare to resist me out of fear of my power. While we may look like a loving couple to the public, I know better.”“Since you’re aware of it, why did you choose to continue the marriage?”After a moment of silence, Belinda said, “Your dad is easy to control. He has no future, and his family relies on the Fishers to survive. He has to think for their future.“I also have to take you and your siblings into consideration. As long as Hunter doesn’t make any major mistakes, I won’t divorce him.“I thought he wouldn’t be able to do anything so long I didn’t give him money, but I ov

    “When I was beating them up back then, it should have been captured on surveillance.”Caroline said, “Mom, asking Kevin to delete the footage wouldn’t work anymore. There were so many witnesses at the hotel. Besides, Kevin might not be willing to delete it; he has never shown respect to our family.”Belinda was taken aback.True, what was the point of asking Kevin to delete the footage?With so many onlookers, the incident must have been recorded by someone. By then, the internet would most probably be full of videos of her catching her husband in the act.Her daughter's words rang true too. Even if others had not recorded it, Kevin was unlikely to delete the surveillance footage. He truly never showed respect to the Fisher family.Serenity was Tiara’s granddaughter and carried the Fisher family's blood. There was a deep-seated grudge between them.Her cousin, Audrey, had been doing well in Wiltspoon; she was the wife of Darrell Stone. Although she had retired, she still had inf

    When Caroline returned to the Fisher Enterprise, her takeout had also arrived.She entered the office building while carrying her takeout.The employees working overtime in the company were surprised to see Caroline returning at this hour, but they did not inquire further.In her office, Caroline enjoyed her meal and then poured herself a cup of water. Sitting back at her desk, she sent a message to Darren.“The plan was perfect.”After receiving a reply from Darren, she promptly deleted the message and reminded him to do the same.“How is Mr. Clark?”Darren sent a voice message.“Not good at all. He’s in a miserable state, and his marriage with my mom is definitely shattered. However, he doesn’t dare to divorce, and my mom doesn’t want to divorce at the age of seventy. They’ll probably endure each other for the time being.”For her mother, it was still a significant blow.Hunter's mistreatment, orchestrating harassment, and his absence of fatherly affection contributed to th

    “No need, I have my own car. Oh, if we’re going to drink, I can’t drive. I’ll have the driver come over.”Darren said, “No need to call the driver. I'll take you home. I don’t drink.”“Suit yourself.”Caroline wanted to have a couple of drinks to celebrate the success of her revenge plan.She immersed herself back into work.By the time she finished, it was already eleven o'clock at night.The employees working late in the company had long gone home.When she walked out of the office building, she saw Darren leaning against the car, waiting for her. As she approached, Darren straightened up and quickly walked toward her.“How long have you been here?” Caroline asked as she got into the car.“Not too long, about ten minutes.”After both of them fastened their seat belts, he started the engine.Caroline told him to go to a popular food truck. Darren chuckled. “Do you fancy food trucks for late-night snacks?”“I used to go there often.”Darren fell silent.He knew Caroline's

    Remy gave it some thought. If he were to become a father, he would also be extremely happy, to the point that he would forget about posting on social media.They were usually busy people and did not have the habit of posting regularly anyway. Josh only started sharing a lot on Facebook after he got married. He simply wanted to show off his life after marriage and irritate his friends who were still single. Even Zachary would post about his love life on Facebook occasionally. Remy suddenly felt he had to keep up with the trend and post something on Facebook during his free time. Remy and Elisa went to buy some supplements before heading to the hospital. There were still many people in Jasmine’s ward. Most of the men were sitting in the small living area while the women were chatting with Jasmine or looking at the baby in the room. The baby boy was already fed and in fresh diapers. He was sleeping soundly. “Jasmine.”Elisa walked over with the supplements she had brought.

    The secretary wished she could skip work and visit Jasmine at the hospital with Elisa. However, that could never happen. She was simply an employee, while Elisa was her boss. The only alternative was if Elisa invited her along. Nevertheless, the employees could meet Jasmine during their break or visit her at her house. Elisa left excitedly. A Maybach was parked at the entrance of the company. When Remy spotted Elisa exiting, he stuck his head out and waved at her. Upon seeing him, she was no longer in a hurry to get to her car. She quickly walked over. “Why are you here? Why didn’t you go inside?”Elisa was beaming. As she had received good news, she had a smiling face regardless of who she met.“I just arrived. I didn’t drive inside when I saw you coming out. Where are you going?”Remy got out of the car.“Jasmine gave birth. I want to go to the hospital to visit her and her baby. You came at the right time. We can head over together, but let’s get some supplemen

    “Yes. Health is the most important thing. Everything else is secondary. With the York family’s wealth and numbers, they won’t have to worry about not having a successor even if your child is slightly more ordinary.”Of course, Elisa personally hoped the next successor of the York family would be her nephew.The Stones and the Yorks could be considered relatives because Elisa and Serenity were cousins.The successor of the Stone family was most likely Clive’s son. If the York family’s heir was not Serenity’s child, would the two families’ relationship that was finally mended become strained again?After all, the head of the York family would no longer be a relative of the Stones if that were the case. However, Elisa did not voice her thoughts. She did not want Serenity to feel pressured. As an aunt, she also thought her nephew’s health was more important than anything else.“You must be busy, Elisa. You should go on with your work. I shall not disturb you. I appreciate your

    “A baby’s face changes almost every day. We’ll only know who he takes after when he’s a little older.”Serenity agreed. “I should call Elisa and share this news with her.”Jasmine probably did not have time to tell her friends about her newborn. Serenity also forgot to inform Elisa because she was too worried about Jasmine. Zachary told her to call Elisa only after they were inside the car. There were too many people in the hospital. Serenity held back her excitement and immediately called Elisa when she got in the car. Elisa was extremely busy at the company. She was the only one who could manage their joint company at that moment because Serenity and Jasmine were pregnant. Even if they wanted to return to the company to work, Elisa would not allow them. Rest was of utmost importance for pregnant women. Elisa was unmarried and not pregnant. She did not mind being busier. She only picked up Serenity’s call after some time.“Seren.”Elisa held the phone in her left h

    “All that matters is that you’re okay, honey. Let’s not have more children. We’ll just have this one son.”Josh spoke while holding Jasmine’s hand.Women had to experience immense pain when giving birth. It came with many risks as well. Josh had heard other people saying that a woman usually had one foot in the grave during childbirth.He was genuinely shocked after accompanying Jasmine through her labor. He had been terrified and worried that something would happen to Jasmine.Luckily, everything ended well. Jasmine and their son were safe. However, Josh did not want to experience something like that again. Having one child was enough. There was no need for a second or third child. The Buchams were a big family anyway. He did not have to bear the responsibility of expanding the family alone.“Okay. We shall not have another baby.”Although Jasmine was brimming with motherly love and recovery from a vaginal delivery was quicker, she still thought childbirth was too

    It was not just Camila. The rest of the people there also had the same thought. Josh and Jasmine had a great relationship. If something happened to Jasmine, Josh would be devastated and lose all hope of living.“Congratulations. The mother has given birth to a boy safely. The baby boy is six pounds and three ounces.”The people who brought Josh out were the anesthetist and nurse.The nurse instinctively reported the good news when she saw the crowd.Then, she explained, “The father probably fainted from shock after the baby was born. Come over and help bring him to the side to rest. The mother won’t be out that quickly.”Upon hearing her words, everyone’s mood brightened up.Camila, whose legs felt weak just now, was immediately filled with strength and stood up. Without Drake's help, she went to the nurse and asked, “Does the baby need to be in the incubator since he was born prematurely?”The nurse replied, “We’ll put the baby in the incubator and observe him for a while.

    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
