Seeing Kaden stay silent, Everly too fell silent for a moment before saying, “If you really feel like you owe him, I’ll treat him to dinner this Friday night. That should do it, right?”Kaden immediately lit up with a smile. “That’s settled, then. Friday night, you’re inviting Sonny to our house for dinner.“No, we should go to Clearfield Hotel to eat. If we invite him over to our home, others will misunderstand when they learn about it.“Grandpa, I know you think highly of Sonny and are trying your best to matchmake us, and to tell you the truth, I think highly of him too. If we both liked each other, I wouldn’t say no, but neither of us has felt that spark.“We just respect each other, plain and simple. So please, stop going to all that trouble.“I’ll just have two kids via IVF, as I planned. Even if they don’t have a father to watch them grow up, as long as I educate them with care, the kids will still turn out well.“There are so many kids who grew up in single-parent familie

Kaden could not very well insist, so he had no choice but to give up. “Alright. If it’s possible, do stay an extra two days so we can properly host you. If you really can’t make the time, we’ll just have to make up for it the next time.”After they ended the call, Kaden put down his phone and ruminated as he sat on the sofa.Sonny was so busy, and Everly was equally so. They really had to squeeze their schedules around if they wanted to take even just two days off. Under these circumstances, dating was indeed difficult.If they were both in Clearfield, making time here and there to meet, have a meal, or go shopping together was plausible.However, they were based in cities so far apart. Though their companies were now collaborating and they occasionally made business trips to each other’s cities, it was absolutely impossible for them to cultivate any feelings based on those few days’ worth of interaction.Even if they did, there would not be much time to solidify the relationship.

“I don’t think growing up without a father made my life any worse. You and Mom loved me and gave me plenty of security and affection. I grew up perfectly fine.”Kaden scoffed. “Really? Who was the one who came home crying because she wanted a father, saying that everyone else had one and she didn’t, so she wanted one too?“And who was it who wrote in an essay that she’d never experienced what it was like to be loved by her father, had never seen her father in person, and wanted to know what it felt like to have a father’s love and companionship?”Everly was speechless.That was when she was still young.Fine. She admitted it. Deep down, she had always craved a father’s love.Now that she had grown stronger, that longing had faded considerably.“Isn’t Sonny good? If you and Sonny got together, your children would definitely be exceptional. You’re both smart and capable, and Sonny is handsome. Just imagine how adorable and good-looking your children would be?”“Grandpa, there are

“Okay.”Everly headed toward the back courtyard. She usually ran there because there was plenty of space. A couple of laps were enough to get a decent workout.“Everly, can I call Sonny and invite him over for breakfast? He did me such a large favor last night and even drove you home. We owe him one.”Everly paused and turned back. “Grandpa, Sonny lives far from our house. We’ll all be leaving for work by the time he gets here.“Also, he doesn’t have to come all the way here for breakfast. We can invite him to dinner another day. There’s no need to drag him out of bed early in the morning to thank him.“Sonny only got home after midnight last night. He probably didn’t get to bed until one or two in the morning. Let him sleep a little longer.“If you’re worried about owing him, then don’t ask him to help in the first place. You were perfectly capable of attending the banquet yourself, but you insisted on having Sonny go in your place. I know exactly what you’re thinking, Grandpa.”
Chapter 5543
Sonny’s place in Clearfield was quite a distance from the Flemming residence. It was already past midnight by the time he got home.Everly sent him a message to ask if he got home safely.He replied with a voice message. “I just got back, Ms. Flemming. You should get some rest. You have work tomorrow. Good night!”Everly was already half-asleep when her phone chimed. She reached over to the nightstand and picked it up, seeing Sonny’s reply.She did not say much and only responded with a thumbs-up emoji. Then, she put her phone back on the nightstand and went back to sleep.It had been a long time since she had gone to bed this early.Maybe it was because she was in a good mood, or because she was too exhausted. Either way, she slept soundly throughout the night without dreaming once.At half-past six the next morning, she woke up without an alarm.She was used to getting up at this time every day for her morning run.Afterward, she would have breakfast, chat a little with her

Maddie said, “Thanks for everything.”She felt a little ashamed as she thanked Kaden. In the past, she had privately resented him for being so overbearing. She was Everly’s mother, but he never let her have much say in Everly’s future.Maddie thought Kaden looked down on her siblings. Not only did Everly turn down the men they introduced to her, but even Kaden would also dismiss the matches and lecture her about it.She felt trapped between both sides. Steven accused her of being a useless mother, saying that he was trying to be nice by finding a boyfriend for his niece, yet he was being blamed for it.Only now did Maddie realize that she had been wrong. She should not have thought that way about Kaden.He had spent decades navigating the business world and was shrewd. When it came to judging people, his eye was far better than hers.Everly was the Flemmings’ only heir. Everything Kaden did was to protect Everly, Flemming Group, and everything the family had built.“There’s noth

Frustrating
What happened it’s been more then 24 hours no new chapters
I think you like us telling you to finish writing this novel. I bet it is finished on Utube.
Dear author are you even reading these comments and why are you not responding to them, you take our money but do not respond
I have spent a bloody fortune on this. I don’t need to keep reading what has happened over and over.
Progress is at a snail’s pace. I don’t even have a 10 minute read. How long is it going to take to make any headway through this part of the story and quite frankly the cost of this subscription is costing me far too much for a writer who can’t keep up with the storyline. This is crazy poor service!
This is a VERY good story. YES the author is milking the readers. I DO like how she’s giving insight into every personality- but reiterating is BORING! Gotta have at LEAST 1 closure o 1 or 3 families?
chapter 3461 is the last chapter?
i think this app should let you read a few chapters and then watch 2min of adds and then goes back to let you keep reading like the other app i have it’s readatic
Finish the book now!!
Please release more chapters … it makes one want to cancel completely waiting waiting then we get a ten minute read Rubbish really !
i think it is terrible how you make us pay to finish reading a story and once we pay then no more chapters are available for days. terrible way to treat your customers ...
I think there should be more to read since we are PAYING for this novel. Also, quit having the app sending me stories I am not reading so I have to go online to get back to this. I have been reading this for 18 months. This is not serialized it’s not even an episodic tv show.
I would appreciate it if you could give us more than 15 minutes of reading. I stop reading from one writer because it would be days before they would post more chapters of 3 , got bored and canceled. I like your story but only 15 minutes a day just don’t cut it. Please post more be4 we cancel.
Belinda thinks she’s bad but she’s is going to get just what Celiene gets can’t wait more chapters please!!!
