Chapter 266
Author: Gu Lingfei
Serenity was a very reasonable person and was very respectful of her elders. Of course, she would only respect them depending on whether those elders truly acted like elders.

“Serenity, were those people earlier your relatives? Are they causing trouble for you again? Are they still asking you to pay up for your grandmother’s medical bills? Those people are really shameless! They drive their own cars and live in villas. They have a million—maybe even millions—in savings, but they don’t want to pay for their own mother’s medical bills and instead are trying to force their orphaned nieces to pay.”

“I’ve seen shameless people, but I’ve never seen anyone as shameless as they are. My horizons have been broadened.”

Without him, York Corporation could continue operating as usual. The company had developed tremendously since he had taken over almost a decade ago.Josh continued chatting with Zachary, who was washing the dishes in the bathroom. Meanwhile, Jasmine went to Serenity’s room with the bouquet. “Seren.”Seeing that Serenity had already changed her clothes, Jasmine said, “I guess you can’t wait to leave the hospital. You’ve already changed when the discharge procedures aren’t done.”She handed the bouquet to Serenity. Serenity accepted the flowers and thanked her. She said, “I’ve been in the hospital way longer than you were. I was admitted before my labor, while yours was an emergency. You were discharged a few days after your delivery.“Who likes staying in the hospital? Of course, I’d be eager to go home.”Although giving birth to a baby

    While Austin and Isabella were still lovey-dovey, Serenity was having breakfast in the hospital. Grandma May held her great-grandson in her arms. She interacted with Heath while telling Tania, “This kid is starting to look like Seren.”Tania observed her grandson. She said, “Seren has given birth to him after carrying him for nine months. It’s only right that he looks like her after everything she has gone through.”Serenity was a beauty herself. If Heath resembled her, he would definitely be a handsome boy in the future. Of course, Tania did not mind whether Heath looked like Zachary or Serenity so long as he was healthy. “Babies grow really quickly. This boy looks much cuter than when he was just born.”Tania’s words revealed that they thought Heath was a little ugly when he was born. Well, it was because they had been surrounded by pretty children like Sonny, Laurence, and the Johnsons’ kids.Each of them was beautiful.Grandma May said, “The children in our family will a

    “Gramps had built Wildridge Manor for Nana decades ago. It’s evidence of just how much he loved her.”The York men had always expressed their love through meaningful actions. It had been that way for generations and had never changed. Isabella smiled. “Okay. I believe you. Watch your step when walking down the stairs. Don’t trip and fall.”Austin continued descending the stairs while holding her hand. “It’s quiet. Is everyone still asleep?”Or did Isabella wake up too late?Austin replied, “Nana and Mom woke up early. They went to deliver breakfast to Serenity. She’s getting discharged today.“Other people will probably head to the hospital later as well.”Isabella said enviously, “Your sister-in-law is so fortunate to have everyone treating her well.”Serenity had nearly the entire family fetching her from the hospital after giving birth. It showed how important Serenity was to the York family. Her position could never be threatened. She was the eldest granddaughter-i

    Harold went back to sleep. While he cared about his children’s marriage, they were all grown up. They could make their own decisions, knowing what kinds of lives they wanted to lead. If Tati were dating someone, Harold just wanted to know what his future son-in-law looked like. He did not care about anything else. The children were already adults. He and Margaret could not interfere with their lives. What they could do to ease their children’s burden was simply to stay healthy. The night passed. When Isabella woke up the next day, it was already past seven in the morning. She quickly sat up when she saw the time on her phone. She had not woken up that late ever since she took over the family business. She was used to waking up early, exercising, and eating breakfast before going to work. Perhaps having some weight taken off her shoulders or the York family’s great atmosphere had put her in a good mood, which allowed her to sleep deeply. She did not even dream the en

    Her own daughter was now a pillar of the O’Connor family. If her birth relatives still harbored designs on the family’s wealth, they would be harming her child.A mother’s children were both her Achilles heel and her last straw.“Exactly. Even the most talented business geniuses stumble sometimes. It’s normal for our company to have losses for a quarter or two. We’ve always adjusted strategies to turn things around.“I have full confidence in both myself and Isabella.”Tati acknowledged how hard Isabella had it.“Get some rest.”Margaret rose without further discussion. After urging her daughter once more, she headed upstairs.Entering her bedroom, she found her husband, Harold, stirring awake. Seeing her return fully dressed and made up, he asked, “You’re still up? Where were you? Or is it morning already?”He glanced outside at the still-dark sky. Nope, it clearly was not morning yet.“No, it’s only about 1 AM right now.
