Zachary found it hilarious. “No wonder they’re best friends. I was forced to take Sonny out because he knocked on my door.“Ben, why don’t you join us?”Zachary invited Ben and Laurence to go for a walk with them. Ben smiled. “Okay. I probably can’t fall back asleep anyway.”He told Laurence, “You can take Sonny to play ahead of us, but don’t go too far.”“It should be Sonny bringing Laurence around. You two are our guests. We should be proper hosts.”The children had already run off hand in hand. Ben said, “Laurence has a good memory. He memorized the route here after only one visit and could even remember the plants along the roads. He recognizes more plant species than me now.”Zachary said, “Look at who his mentor is. Dr. Carden is an expert in both medicines and poisons. Although Lilian did not spend much time teaching Laurence one-on-one, he had the miracle healer. He learned about many herbs during the time he spent with the miracle healer. They knew Laurence had a

Zachary ran ahead and Ben jogged after him. “Luckily, our families are close. Otherwise, I would’ve felt bad for disturbing you early in the morning.”The neighborhood was quiet. Only a few residents were having their morning runs. “Laurence is rarely here. I understand that he doesn’t waste a single second he can play with his friend.“He’s improved a lot. It’s obvious from the speed he ran after jumping out of the car. I think Sonny can never catch up to him.”Ben said, “Everyone has their strengths and weaknesses. Laurence’s downside is that he loves eating. He’s a total glutton. Whenever he’s home, he likes following Lee around and asking him to make all sorts of food for him. He still wants to eat even after his stomach is bloated.“Jane was worried that he’d overeat. It’s great that he’s training daily to burn off the calories.”“Kids are all like that. It’ll get better after they grow up. My nana said I was a glutton too when I was young. However, I think I changed afte

Since Laurence rarely visited, and his only friend in Wiltspoon was Sonny, Serenity could allow her nephew to take a day off school. Sonny nodded and guaranteed that it would only be this once. Laurence said, “I’ll come again during the summer or winter holidays, Aunt Seren. That way, no one will need to take a day off.”“Can you please tell Mom now, Aunt Ser?”Sonny wanted to confirm that he could get the day off as soon as possible, then he would be able to play to his heart’s content. Serenity looked toward Zachary, who looked away sheepishly. She scolded him mentally for pushing the responsibility to her. “Okay.”Serenity called her sister. When Liberty picked up, she said, “Liberty, Sonny has something to tell you.”After speaking, she handed the phone to Sonny, “You tell her.”He took the phone and told Liberty why he wanted to take a day off school. After repeating Serenity's words, Liberty agreed to let Sonny skip school for a day to accompany his friend. Sonny

Besides, Sonny had his strengths. He was better at reading and writing than Laurence. Although Laurence could read, he could not write well whereas Sonny was a good writer. He was one of the best among children his age. Uncle Zak told him that when he showered him with compliments. Uncle Zak would not lie to him; he was a husband and a CEO, so he would always speak the truth. With those thoughts, Sonny stopped pouting and pulled Laurence. “Let’s go and get something to eat. I’m hungry.”“I’m hungry too.”The boys happily hopped back into the house. …At the Newmans, Carrie stood far away from the villa’s gate and dialed Trenton’s number continuously. After some time, Trenton came out. When Carrie saw him, she walked over with a dark expression and slapped him across his face. It was resounding. Trenton did not expect his sister to slap him the moment he went to her. He thought she had specially come to see him because she knew he was returning to his university. Th

“You bastard. Now that you’re an adult, you and Camryn bully me together. I know everything. Your intention for visiting Mom and Dad in prison wasn’t pure. I thought you missed them, but you were aiming for their fortune.“I have a share in our parents’ assets too, Trenton. Don’t even think of monopolizing it. Mom and Dad love me the most. They won’t transfer everything to you. You should stop bothering them.”Carrie had gone to visit her parents too. That was how she found out Trenton was trying to get their parents’ assets that were not confiscated to be transferred to him while she and Camryn would not get anything.It was natural that Camryn would not get a single penny because she was not their biological daughter. However, Carrie was. She was their favorite child as well. How could she not have a share?Carrie had consulted a lawyer and was ready to fight Camryn through a lawsuit to get everything back. However, she never expected that Trenton had planned to take everything
Married at First Sight Chapter 2688
The Newman couple was strict with Trenton and trained him to be independent at a young age because they wanted him to succeed them. How could a successor take over the family if they could not stand their ground and be independent?However, they kept it subtle because Trenton was still young then. Now that he had grown up and Carrie kept stirring trouble after getting out of prison, their parents agreed to transfer all their assets to him to protect them. Trenton also promised to ensure Carrie’s life essentials were covered. He would stop giving her allowance once she could earn money to sustain herself. However, if she were to get married, he would give her a large sum of money and luxurious presents to send her off. He also made it clear that Camryn would not take anything—she only wanted justice. “Mom and Dad won’t agree to this. They wouldn’t. You should stop dreaming.”Carrie knew her parents had already agreed to the plan. She was simply in denial. She refused to beli

Trenton refused. “I can’t help you there, Carrie.“I can’t change Camryn’s mind. What I’m spending now comes from her. I still need her to support me financially. How can I influence her to change her decisions?”Even if he could persuade Camryn to reactivate Carrie’s bank card, he would choose not to do it. Trenton and Camryn’s aim was to prevent Carrie from losing all the family’s money. He wanted to force Carrie to be independent and build her own life. Otherwise, Carrie would be suppressed by Camryn for the rest of her life. After all, Carrie was Trenton’s biological sister, and he wanted to see her do well. “Since you know she’s this unreasonable, you should work with me instead of falling prey to her lies. Was it her idea that you meet Mom and Dad and get them to transfer their assets to you? She must’ve taught you that, right? She probably badmouthed me too.“Camryn wants to take everything belonging to the Newmans, Trenton. Worrying that I might lose everything is ju

However, Trenton himself would be in charge between him and Carrie. Carrie quickly accepted the money. She caught up to Trenton and pulled him back. “Give me more money, Trenton. Transfer me a hundred thousand, no, fifty thousand dollars is fine too. Five thousand really isn’t enough. Or else, you can steal the title deeds with my name on it and the spare keys from Camryn.”She recalled that Mom had bought her a few houses. When she was studying, she did not stay in the dormitory and lived in a private property her mom bought instead.After Carrie stopped studying, Paige let out that and some other properties but never told her how much the monthly rent was. The only thing Carrie knew was those houses were for her. As long as she could get the title deeds and keys, she could sell them and earn a lot of money. Those houses were located in school catchment areas. One of them could easily earn her millions. “Why could Camryn take my title deeds? Those are my assets, and she to

However, Remy felt that his niece, Chloe, seemed even more outstanding than her brother. Perhaps in the future, it would be Chloe who would take charge of the family.“I miss Clo-clo so much. I don’t know why, but lately, whenever I see little babies, I feel especially fond of them. Maybe it’s because as I get older, I’m becoming more maternal.”“You’re not old at all. I’m older than you, so don’t talk about being old in front of me.”Remy did not like hearing her say she was getting old. If she was old, then he was even older. Remy felt that he was still in his prime, especially since he had not even married Elisa yet.“I’m older than Seren, and her baby is due in two months.“Oh, by the way, earlier, besides complaining that I was making you cook and worrying that I was tiring you out, my mom also suggested that we start preparing for pregnancy. She said that by the time we hold the wedding in the fall, it could be a double celebration.”Remy turned to look at her, his eyes bur

“Just like how Grandma May taught Zachary and the others, being able to cook isn’t just about earning points when looking for a wife—it’s also about rewarding your own stomach.” His own grandmother had not said anything like that. All she said was that flowers did not stay in bloom forever. Although the Johnsons were currently at their peak and were wealthy beyond measure, the world was unpredictable. Who knew in which generation the family might decline?Having more skills never hurt. Learning an extra skill meant that if the family ever fell on hard times, they would at least have the ability to support themselves.That was why their family elders encouraged them to develop a wide range of skills. They did not need to master everything, but they should at least have a basic understanding of many things. In truth, his cooking skills used to be quite average.It was only after he developed feelings for Elisa and learned that she had once had a crush on Zachary, who was skille

Audrey heard the cry of her precious grandson and immediately forgot about her daughter. She called out loudly, “You two enjoy your time together then. My grandson is crying, so I’m heading back inside.“You and Remy can start preparing for pregnancy too. When it’s time for the wedding, it’ll be a double celebration.”Hearing someone else’s daughter had given birth, Audrey was eager for her daughter to do so too. Though she was already a grandmother, she wanted to be a grandmother to her daughter’s child too. That was simply how elderly people with both sons and daughters were.Elisa was speechless. She heard the hurried footsteps of her mother heading back into the house, calling out before even entering, “Darling, don’t cry. Grandma’s back.”Elisa muttered, “Now that she has a grandson, even I, this precious daughter of hers, have been pushed aside. When I give her a grandson, I doubt there’ll be any room left for me.”She and Remy would definitely have children, but they were n

“Remy, Remy!” a voice called from outside. It sounded like Audrey. Remy came out of the kitchen, wearing an apron.“You keep at it, I’ll go out. My mom must have seen the lights and knew you were back, so she’s calling you over for dinner at our house.”At this time, her family was probably halfway through their meal.Elisa put down the remote control and walked out of the house with a packet of snacks in hand, munching as she went.“Mom.” Elisa walked to the fence and responded to her mother.“Elisa? You’re back too? You came back and didn’t even come home for dinner? We’re eating right now. Hurry up and bring Remy over. Grandpa True was just saying that Remy hasn’t come over for dinner in a few days.”Remy had been busy entertaining clients lately, so he had not had time to join his in-laws for meals.Elisa replied, “Mom, I feel like eating Remy’s cooking tonight, so we won’t be coming over. You guys go ahead.”“Oh, you. It’s so late already, and you’re still making Remy c

Elisa said, “Although cousins can be as close as siblings, it’s still better to have another child. After all, we won’t be living at your family home permanently, and our children might not have much time to bond with their cousins in the future.“I have two older brothers, and the three of us have always been close. My brothers have always doted on me, and I can always talk about things with them. My sister-in-law has been very kind to me even after they got married too.“I’m used to having siblings around. It’s lively, and no matter what happens, we can always talk things through. It’s nice not having to face everything alone. I don’t want my children to feel lonely in the future.”Elisa continued, “Most importantly, I love children. If you could be the one to carry and give birth, sparing me the exhaustion of pregnancy, I’d even consider having three kids. But unfortunately, you can’t.“If I have to carry the baby myself, even though I love children, I’d only have two—preferably

Jasmine smiled. “I can’t tell. He’s so tiny. I’m scared when I have to carry him. I’m afraid of hurting him. What if he slips from my arms?”As a first-time mother, Jasmine was inexperienced. She was not like Serenity, who had raised a baby before. Josh and Zachary had secretly taken classes on how to look after a baby. The way Josh held the baby was more accurate than hers. “You’ll get better at it after learning slowly. I didn’t dare to carry my nephew either because I was scared of hurting him, but I’m an expert now.”Elisa could not resist touching the baby’s face again. She really liked babies.“Has the baby been fed?”Camila replied, “He was fed an hour ago.”The baby had been ravenous. Everyone was relieved when they saw the baby could feed normally. The doctor said the baby might experience jaundice a few days later and that premature babies should be monitored closely. Jaundice usually appeared when the baby was a few days old. It would reach its peak after

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
