Chapter 2939
Author: Gu Lingfei
Hayden picked up the brocade box and opened it to take a look before closing it once more and asking Hugh, “You bought this to coax one of your girlfriends with, didn’t you? It’s not my style.”

She tossed the box back to him.

“I have no shortage of things like these. Kevin has been buying jewelry, women’s clothing, high-heels, and stuff like that for me like mad for the past few days.”

She had a lot of things.

She had more than enough money of her own. If she liked something, she could afford it even if it was expensive.

Her future mother-in-law had also given her a lot of precious jewelry.

It was just that she was not used to wearing them.

Even Grandma May had given her a few expensive pieces of jewelry as a gift upon their first meeting.

Grandma May was born before World War II. Her family was rich but later went through a period of decline before they eventually got back up on their feet.

Some of the jewelry in Grandma May’s collection were valuable antiques.

She had quite

    Hugh knew that Caroline had her own business.It was no wonder that Hayden had such an appreciation for Caroline. She might not have had a good childhood in her adoptive parents’ home, but she grew tenaciously like a blade of grass. At a young age, she had made a place for herself in the business world with just her brain and guts.She was an impressive businesswoman.He could not blame Hayden for constantly trying to set them up.Even now, he suspected that she had not given up on the idea yet.Because of Liberty’s appearance, it was now hard to predict who would succeed the matriarchy.If Caroline withdrew from the race, she could marry freely without having to look for someone willing to marry into her family.This was exactly what Hayden had thought of. Thus, the idea she had originally given up on sprang back to life and she started creating opportunities for Hugh and Caroline to meet.“Got it. And sis, you know Caroline has someone by her side, right?” Hugh said meaningfu

    Twenty minutes later, Darren’s and Caroline’s cars were parked at the hospital’s parking lot. Darren got out of his car first and went to Caroline’s. After she was out of her car, he helped her with her stuff. Caroline had bought a fruit basket and multivitamins. “Give me the fruits. They’re quite heavy.”Even if Caroline was stronger than the average woman, Darren did not want her holding the fruits. He trained in martial arts since he was young. Obviously, he had greater strength, and carrying a fruit basket was effortless. Without hesitation, Caroline accepted his offer. She handed the fruit basket to him while she took the box of multivitamins. They walked toward the inpatient department. On their way, Caroline spotted Celine hiding in a corner, probably waiting for Belinda. Celine did not see Caroline. Darren glanced at Caroline and asked, “Should we chase her away, Ms. Caroline? I’m pretty sure Madam Fisher doesn’t want to see her.”Caroline answered calmly, “Le

    Hunter would not have the guts to do so either. Belinda could even chase her children out of the family, so why would she care for a husband who married into her family?She turned and left. Caroline saw her out. She also asked about Hunter’s condition. “Just keep him company and talk to him. Adrian will be here in an hour. He’s the eldest son. He should take most responsibility in taking care of Hunter.”Caroline gave no comments. The mother and daughter exchanged a few more words before stopping at the elevator. Caroline watched her mom leave with bodyguards flanking her before returning to the ward. Darren had poured Hunter a cup of tea. Hunter was being polite to Darren as well. No one dared to underestimate the matriarch’s or the heir’s assistants cum right-hand men. Even Belinda treated Darren politely. “Carol.”Seeing that Caroline was back, Hunter immediately smiled as she walked over. “How are you feeling, Dad? Are you better?” Caroline asked, sitting

    Caroline said, “The Clark family is doing well.”Caroline knew that the Clarks’ future was Hunter’s utmost priority.That was why he feared Belinda’s revenge and chose to get castrated to protect the marriage. Even if he would be separated from his wife, then so be it. It was his fault for not being cautious. “That’s great. Although you bear your mom’s last name, Carol, the blood of the Clark family runs in you too. You can’t remain indifferent if something were to happen to the Clarks in the future. Your aunts and uncles have been treating you well.”Caroline said calmly, “They have jobs now. As long as they work hard and aren’t up to something, their lives will be comfortable. If they run into any emergencies, I’ll help them to the best of my abilities.”However, she would not break any rules for them if the issue was beyond her. Hunter understood Caroline’s hidden meaning. He knew she was as cold-hearted as Belinda. She had no feelings for the Clark family at all. The on

    Hunter knew Caroline did not wish to talk to him. He said, “I’m a little tired after watching a movie. I’ll get some rest now.”Caroline wanted to shift Hunter into a lying position, so Darren offered his assistance.She accepted his help.“Darren and I will be close by, Dad. Call us if you need anything. Adrian will be here to accompany you later.”Hunter said, “Why is Adrian coming? Aren’t you supposed to take care of me for two days? Are you unwilling?”“Adrian is your child too. Is there anything wrong with him taking care of you when you’re hospitalized? What does this have to do with my willingness? I’m not your only child.”Hunter was rendered speechless. He quickly recovered and said, “Adrian has to go to work.”“I do too. I’m busier than he is.”Hunter still wanted to retort, but Caroline used Belinda as an excuse, “Mom told me to come over to talk to you. She also assigned Adrian to take over an hour later.”Upon hearing that it was his wife’s orders, Hunter could no

    “I know who set me and Dad up, Mom. It was my sisters-in-law. The wine Adrian gave Dad came from his room, but he wouldn’t do that to us. It must’ve been Emma.“Mom.”Belinda got into her car.Celine flung herself toward the car but failed to even touch it.However, Belinda lowered the window before the driver started driving. She gestured at the bodyguards to release Celine and let her come close.Celine was delighted. She shrugged the bodyguards off and went forward.“Do you believe me now, Mom? My words are true. You haven’t had time to investigate because you’ve been taking care of Dad at the hospital all this while. If you did some investigation, you’ll definitely find out the truth.”Belinda looked toward her and said coldly, “I know you and Hunter were tricked.”Celine was ecstatic.She knew that her adoptive mother was wise. Belinda definitely knew the truth.“So what? We can’t pretend like nothing happened between you and Hunter.”Celine’s hopes dimmed in an instant

    Celine stopped crying after a while. She stood up and counted the money. It was precisely two thousand dollars.In the past, she would have scoffed at that amount of money.Fast forward to the present, two thousand dollars had become her accommodation and meal allowance for the month.Celine was in an even worse state than Carrie, who was in Wiltspoon.Even if Carrie did not have Mr. Longbottom’s aid, she still had a brother giving her some living expenses monthly. She would never go hungry.On the other hand, Celine had no one to rely on.However, she refused to leave Jensburg just like that.She wanted revenge against her sisters-in-law.The three Fisher brothers had taken after Hunter’s flirtatiousness and took a fancy to have affairs.Celine knew their preferences and personalities well. More importantly, they still loved her. They would definitely grovel at her feet once she tried seducing them.She would make them enamored with her to make their wives angry.She was no

    Caroline suddenly turned to look at Darren. She whispered to him, “Do you have someone you like, Mr. Fletcher?”Belinda had assigned Darren to be with Caroline earlier than scheduled and told her she could trust Darren forever and that he would never betray her.Even if she were to fail to become the next matriarch, Darren’s allegiance would never change.After testing him several times, Caroline finally chose to trust Darren.Darren was an all-rounder, as expected of an assistant trained to serve the matriarch or heir of the Fishers.He was competent.Caroline thought, ‘Although the Fisher family has been getting weaker, the training base that their predecessors built is remarkable. I wonder how the person in charge of the base manages to find so many talented children to train them into capable assistants.’The assistants even had beauty, brains, and brawn.Although Darren could not compare to the young men of York, he was relatively handsome.Caroline had been back with the

    “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

    “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.
