“I’ll talk to my parents. The past is in the past. Besides, it wasn’t just your fault. I was at fault too. In fact, the biggest mistake was mine.“You were young back then and had little life experience. That was why I was able to fool you so easily. I was the one who was unfaithful in my marriage. I ruined your life as well as my own.“We both paid the price for the mistakes we made in our youth, so stop dwelling on the past and move forward. It’s enough as long as we can enjoy a peaceful old age together.”Thinking back on those years made Jessica’s eyes redden. She had also hoped to settle down in the big city through marriage. She had been attracted by Hank’s high income and the apartment he owned in Wiltspoon.Even when the property prices fell, the apartment they lived in barely lost value because of its location and proximity to good schools.When Liberty divorced Hank, she smashed up all the renovations. After Jessica married into the family, they renovated the place again
Chapter 5449
After dinner, the two elders asked Sonny to accompany them downstairs for a walk.Sonny agreed.He did not have any plans that evening, so he had the time. Taking a walk with his grandparents would also give him a chance to relax.He had been working nonstop and had not truly relaxed in a long time.Hank also wanted to join them, but the dishes were not done yet, so he stayed with Jessica to clean up.“Hank, you should go with them. I’ll handle things here,” Jessica said thoughtfully.“It’s rare that Sonny has time to spend with you. He’s leaving on another business trip soon, and then he’s flying to Havenmill. Who knows when he’ll be back.“The next time he has time to go on walks with you will probably be during New Year’s, but then his mother will come as well, and he’ll be visiting his aunt’s family to spend time with his cousins. He won’t have much time then either.”Every Christmas and New Year’s, Sonny would only spend a few days with the Browns. He never had festive mea

“Thanks, Dad.”Sonny helped Olivia into her seat, then said, “I’ll go wash my hands.”By the time he returned, Jessica had already served everyone a bowl of soup.Sonny had intended to serve the elders himself, but since Jessica already did it, he thanked her and sat beside Hank. Hank was on his left while Luke was on his right. Olivia sat on Luke’s other side.“Sonny, hurry and try the chowder,” Hank said expectantly.Sonny picked up his spoon and took a sip.“How is it? Is it good? Last time, you said my soup was missing something, so I’ve been making it over and over again. Jessica got so tired of it she almost got sick, but I think I finally got it right.”Jessica added, “Sonny, you have no idea. Your grandparents and I were all afraid of soup. Your dad made this chowder every single day. He only stopped after all of us agreed that it tasted good.”The elderly couple nodded in agreement.“Your dad said you’re always so busy and use your brain so much, so he wanted to mak

Sonny turned to Luke instead. Olivia always talked about family matters, and most of her words circled back to urging him to get married.“What else could your granddad be up to? He’s just an old man. All he does is watch TV after eating, or he goes downstairs to play chess and brag with the other old men.”Luke glared at Olivia. “Playing chess is better than dancing. You ladies are always disturbing the neighbors and getting complaints.”“We only dance from seven-thirty to nine in the evening. Even if it’s noisy, it won’t affect anyone’s rest. I bet those people are just jealous that we old ladies are having fun exercising.”Olivia did indeed go dancing regularly.She was old now, and her husband had his own hobbies. She felt bored, so she joined the neighborhood dancing group.It was easy to cause a disturbance, but they kept to a schedule and almost always finished before nine o’clock at night, so they would not interfere with anyone’s rest. They would even suspend their dan

“I’m just telling the truth. What’s there to be embarrassed about? My grandson is such a young, successful, handsome, and caring man. I wonder which lucky girl will end up with you.”Olivia then asked, “Sonny, are you dating anyone? It’s time to start thinking about it. You’re not getting any younger. When your father was your age, you were already in preschool.”Sonny put down his glass of water and said, “Grandmom, I haven’t met anyone I liked yet. There’s no rush. I’ll get married before I’m thirty-five.”Olivia would ask about his love life every time he came over for dinner. He was used to it.He was already thirty-two. At his age, many men and women were married with children, yet he was still single and had never even been in a relationship before.It was no wonder the elders were worried.Those from his grandparents’ generation typically married much earlier. In their eyes, one should already be thinking about marriage once they hit their twenties. Sonny was still single
Chapter 5445
That was the only reason Jessica could enjoy such a comfortable life.At home, Luke barely did anything anymore. Everything was Jessica’s job now. Even when a sauce bottle fell over, she would ask Jessica to put it back upright.Even then, Olivia still constantly scolded Jessica for being a poisonous woman and brought up old grievances.She called Jessica a slut, saying that if it were not for Jessica inserting herself into Hank and Liberty’s marriage, Liberty would not have asked for a divorce. Then, they would now be related to the richest family in Wiltspoon by marriage, and the benefits of which were unimaginable.Hank would not have to be a ride-hailing driver, either, and possibly would have become a high-ranking executive at a large company long ago, earning a yearly income in the millions.She even regularly badmouthed Jessica in front of Sonny.Sonny listened, but did not do as his grandmother said.To him, Jessica just had to take good care of his father. If his grandp

The same thing happened to me. Charging me $9.99 for subscription When I never subscribed. It’s difficult to unsubscribe. No one wants to talk to you in person either. Author is horrible.
Cat Hawkins, then why are we only getting to read a chapter or two per day, and very short Chapters at that?
have you noticed that all they drink in this book is warm water or pure alcohol?
Are YOU the Author?
Yeah,it’s definitely frustrating!
If this book is finished where do we get it i looked a lot of places
Since 4/16/23. I have spent $728 on this ONE book. The last $139 was a policy change causing a subscription after a $9.99 purchase on 4/16/24 & they began taking $9.99 out of my checking account PER WEEK! I have had to cancel my debit card to stop them. I wasn't notified of this change. Were you?

I can't find the comments that I left for all of you to know what was going on. I don't know if they deleted it or not, because I told them I was going to warn the readers. I'm about to paste info under every one of your names, & it's the same content, just to let each know what they are doing to me
Can your coworker give us a bit of tea, also if it’s finished why is the author only dropping a few pages at a time just a thought.
I hope the author wraps it up doom.
New characters ugh
This book is finish. My coworker has finish this book
I know it is getting to long, I had stopped reading it for some time. Now I am annoyed again. Have the baby already and where is the couple romance it's so generic now. Sonny why is he still not growing up he is young child but adult conversations. then grow him. Need more couple love
Clive & Elisa Stone’s brother
it is sad to not be valued more by the author. I am wondering if this book will ever end. Like fools, we keep hoping it will end some day..
Only having 3 small chapters at a time is so annoying and ridiculous. I don’t understand why we just can’t have the whole series.
Everyone's point of view is right and should be respected the book is very good but this 3 chapters is not fair to use it should have been noted at the beginning that the book was not finished
Now to be insulted with a few minutes a day of reading
20 bonus points for a quarter of a page or blank pages is not good at all
Even with the negative comments regarding the shortness of the chapters, she still continues to do the same thing. We get three short chapters that go absolutely nowhere. Will probably be bringing this story at your end. Losing interest very quickly. Don’t think I will read anything by this author s
Wow that was short and sweet, read those couple chapters in 12 minutes, I never got either Bonus.............
