Alex replied, “There’s nothing I can do about that, then. I was hoping that if Lil’ Pie was willing to stay here, you could stay with me for ten days or half a month, so I could fulfill my filial duties too.”Thinking about it, his little niece was just over a year old and really could not be separated from her parents.Moreover, Zachary and Serenity might not feel comfortable having their daughter stay with him. He did hold Lil’ Pie occasionally and played with her, but they had not had that much time together. Actually taking care of a young child could be annoying and require a lot of attention.Lil’ Pie was still young, curious about everything, and unaware of dangers. If some small accident happened, not only would he feel terribly sorry toward Zachary and Serenity, but he himself, too, would be heartbroken.“Oh, it’s enough that I know you are all very filial. Occasionally, I’ll come stay at your place for a night to hear about your progress with Sheila.”Alex laughed, “If I

Sheila knew the help he mentioned referred to the renovation.She felt that since Alex had been her patient and was now a neighbor, and he trusted her enough to ask for her help, she was willing to assist where she could.“That won’t do. You’ve helped me so much. If I don’t treat you to a few meals, I’ll always feel like I still owe you a lot of favors.”Sheila said with amusement, “When your apartment is done renovating, you’ll need to treat Mike and the crew to a meal. Just invite me along then. There’s no need to treat me separately.”When people hired renovation crews, they would usually treat the workers to a meal on the first day of work. They would probably treat them one or two more times during the process, and then again on the day the job is completed.That was what Sheila had done back then.Alex agreed, “That’s for sure. Sheila, you should go in and have breakfast. You have work soon. I’ll head back to make breakfast for Nana now.”Grandma May was probably already u

When Sheila went downstairs, she saw their cook, Pam, already preparing breakfast in the kitchen. She went into the kitchen to greet her.“Going for your morning run?” Pam asked with a smile. “You guys are really good at keeping it up. I just can’t stick with it, so I just keep getting fatter and fatter.”Sheila glanced at Pam’s waist and said, “Pam, you’re only slightly overweight. Controlling your diet and getting more exercise can help you lose it.“We’re used to morning runs. Pam, I’ll head out for a run now and be back in half an hour for breakfast.”“Go ahead. I’ve just started preparing breakfast. It should be ready by the time you get back. Dr. and Mrs. Jones also just went out for their morning exercise.”As she walked out, Sheila said, “Uncle Marvin and Aunt Enid just take a couple of laps around the park and do some line dancing with others before coming back. We take different routes.”She only ran and did not do any line dancing.Pam smiled. That was just how exerci

However, Grandma May adored her great-granddaughter. Whenever she could watch the child, she would.Lil’ Pie also loved being with Grandma May, feeling that her great-nana treated her the best.“Alright, then I'll get up early tomorrow to prepare breakfast for you, and after that, I’ll take you to Zack's place."It was rare for the old lady to stay at his place, so Alex was determined to personally cook breakfast for her.The two did not chat further. After Alex saw his nana back to her room, he went upstairs.The night passed without further incident.Early the next morning, Sheila was awakened by messages from Mary.She picked up her phone and saw it was a text message, not a message via social media. She initially did not want to look, as few people usually texted her that way. Most contacted her by phone call or over social media.However, seeing there were several messages, she opened them.Only then did she realize they were from Mary.The two had not added each other’s

“It’s quite easy to get the green light from me. As I’ve said before, as long as the girl comes from an upright family and has good character, that’s enough.“Our family is already extremely wealthy. There’s no need for you lot to enter arranged marriages for benefits. As long as you like the person, it’s fine. I trust your judgment. The children I raised personally would never have poor taste.”Grandma May said affectionately, “Keep it up, Alex. I’m only getting older, so I’m pretty much gambling for time against the grim reaper and living day by day. My biggest wish is to see all nine of you settle down and start families.“Whatever your gramps didn’t get to see, I’ll witness it on his behalf. Then, when I go to meet him later, I can face him without shame.”Alex put his arm around his nana’s shoulders. “Nana, Gramps would definitely want you to see us all become parents on his behalf. You have nothing to be ashamed of before Gramps. It was he who let you down by leaving you and

Grandma May simply did not want her children and grandchildren to worry.“Serenity was free to take care of the kids tonight, so I came over. I’ve been here all evening, and you took so long to get back. I had no choice but to wait.”“Nana, did you need something? You could have just called me, if so. You didn’t have to wait here so pitifully.“In the future, please rest in the bedroom. Don’t sleep on the sofa. I’ve kept a room here for you. Everything in it remains unchanged, and it’s cleaned thoroughly every day. You can stay here whenever you come by.”Each of the York brothers kept a room for their nana in their own homes. Regardless of whether she would come to stay or not, the rooms were always kept clean so she could stop by anytime.“I know, I’ll go back to the room to sleep later. Alex, be honest with me. Do you like Dr. Jones?”Alex was silent.“You bought that apartment in Westbrooke Gardens to get close to her, right?”“I knew if you found out, you’d think that. Fin
