Chapter 4992
“All that good reputation is just rumors. It’s a carefully crafted image. Look at their daughters-in-law. None of them is ordinary. They’re all from prestigious families, all strong and capable women.“They’re all well-matched in status. Even the so-called Cinderella who married into the York family is actually from a wealthy family. So don’t be naive, and don’t believe those stories.“That’s just an image built for the men in their family. Cinderella’s story isn’t real.”Sheila said calmly, “Whether their image is real or staged has nothing to do with me. I’ve said it before. Alex and I are just neighbors. We’re ordinary friends.“It’s not what you think, so stop bringing him up all the time.”Sheila had no intention of marrying into wealth, so she did not care about Alex’s background.Whether he was a wealthy scion or an ordinary worker, to her, he was just a neighbor and a friend she got along with.When making friends, she valued character, not family background.“Kent, I’v
Chapter 4991
After hanging up, Kent’s expression turned extremely grim.He slumped weakly into his chair and stared blankly at the night outside the window.It turned out that Alex was actually from the richest family in Wiltspoon. Regardless of his rank among the York brothers, he was still an heir, someone Kent could never hope to reach in his lifetime.Alex was truly lucky to be born into such a powerful family.No wonder Alex could casually buy a house in Westbrooke Gardens. No wonder he carried such an air of nobility. Kent had to admit it even if he did not want to praise his rival.Alex’s overall qualities far surpassed his own. That was exactly why Kent felt threatened and mocked Alex for living off his relatives.Little did he know that he himself was the joke.The luxury car Alex drove clearly belonged to him. He did not need to rely on anyone because he had more than enough money himself.After a long while, Kent snapped out of it and immediately called Sheila.Sheila had just g

“The York family’s property?” Kent asked in shock, “Those are properties of the Yorks?”Alex’s last name was York!If the shops on Westbrooke Street belonged to the York family, and Alex was helping his sister-in-law collect rent, then she must be the eldest daughter-in-law of the York family. This would mean Alex was indeed a son of the Yorks!Kent had heard that the Yorks had nine sons in this generation, so what was Alex’s birth order?“Boss, thank you for helping me find out all this.”“It’s not hard to find out. Just ask the shop owners on Westbrooke Street, and you’ll know who the real landlord is.“You just never looked into it, Kent. That’s why you didn’t know.”Kent had never looked into it. He only knew that the Joneses’ family clinic belonged to the Jones family. It was built on land they had purchased long ago.Buying land and building a multi-story structure in such a prime location showed that the Jones family had long been well-off.He also knew that Sheila’s pa
Chapter 4989
“Alright, thank you. You’ve really thought everything through.”Kent had not even thought of booking a hotel in advance. He had planned to look for one after they got tired.Mary was much more thoughtful.His parents were right. When he was with Mary, she handled everything carefully. He did not need to worry about anything, and she treated his parents even better than her own.Sheila did not love him. She never took the initiative to visit his parents, nor did she care for them, accompany them, or take them out.She also did not show the same care, concern, or tolerance that Mary did.Sheila simply did not love him. In her eyes, he was just one of many seniors, nothing special. So she would never behave like Mary.Perhaps this was the difference between loving and not loving someone.Mary loved him wholeheartedly. She accepted everything about him, cared for him, and treated his parents exceptionally well.Kent silently made a decision.When he thought about their family bac

“Let’s go.”“Okay.”The family of three headed out happily.“Kent, look, Mary can accompany us to the seaside, but Dr. Jones doesn’t even have time to eat with us. She hasn’t even come to visit us. Mary is clearly better,” Talia said.Talia seized every opportunity to praise Mary, strongly urging her son to choose the nurse.“Mom, we agreed to give me another six months. If Sheila still doesn’t accept my feelings after that, I’ll give up.”Mary was willing to wait another six months for him.If things with Sheila did not work out after six months, he would choose Mary.“Alright, alright, we’ll talk about it in six months. I just think Mary is more suitable for our family. She’s very capable and treats us well.”Talia thought, ‘Unlike that Dr. Jones. I heard her family hires a housekeeper to cook. She probably doesn’t even know how to cook. How would she take care of Kent in the future?‘If she went back to our hometown with Kent during the holidays, how would she prepare a pr
Chapter 4987
After a brief pause, Sheila continued, “I think his parents are not satisfied with me, mainly because they have Ms. Hicks as a comparison.“I know Ms. Hicks often goes to Kent’s house to cook and clean. Whenever his parents come into the city, she’s the one hosting them, buying groceries, cooking meals, and accompanying them to the hospital with him.“She also takes them out and buys them many gifts. She does everything so well that his parents are very pleased with her.“I’ve repeatedly rejected Kent, so I believe he’ll eventually give up on me, especially since his parents will interfere.”Kent’s parents clearly favored Mary more.Sheila’s analysis was right, as Kent’s parents were already persuading their son to accept Mary and give up on Sheila.In their eyes, no matter how rich Sheila was, she was too busy with work and had no time to take care of the family or their son.When they visited the city, she did not have time to accompany them, let alone prepare three meals a da

Reader Comments
Longwinded and verbose .Very repetitive. The story is interesting but the writing is poor. Too many cliffhangers you can’t give your readers anything in substantial in return
reading her other books if she has any she or he maybe a series with the kids if they're any kids born? I've already had three kids by now. author please find a way to get rid of the evil give them all lock them up give the good character a good ending and be done with it
I have had enough! This book has gotten so boring .... If this book is any indication as to how well the others are, I am going to delete the app. I have never before taken over a year to read a book. It took me less time to read the Bible!
Why? are coments hidden? it seems hinky . Can we have some forward movement in this story?
I'm ready for babies!
I agree! Serenity has been pregnant for over 9 months and Elisa more so. I like most characters, not all.
It’s been Christmas for over 6 months of me reading about it! Sonny is still 3 years old! It’s frustrating to only have 3-4 pages to read at a time and nothing has really changed. I really like the characters but wish each page was new and exciting!!
How come you subtracted more bonus from my totals if I can’t use them for book chapters?
Nothing new, already read everything posted! Waste of my time and money!
Why do you have to repeat there back ground. It just bores us and waist time on the story. Get on with it.
Another boring pages. Waste of time reading and waste of money. Apparently the author doesn’t read our comments because he keeps writing the same boring stories.
I think it’s time for the stories to be ended you’re dragging is on!
this book is a waste... author keeps going back and repeating EVERYTHING... get it over with already!!!
Yeah I agree with you all, these chapter were a waste of space and this writer does not care that we complain about continuously repeating stuff we already know. It’s starting not to make any sense.
I don't think the author is reading our comment.Because if he were I think he was truly bring this to an endo it again with carrie and the fishers
The writing is not getting any better. They are constantly repeating the same thing over and over again. Please take Carrie. I'll do this this, miss longbottom is truly getting on my nerve and the Fisher family
GOOD FOR NOTHING WRITING.
Two more wasted chapters. I don’t think the author even reads these comments. I think it’s a waste of our time reading them. She thinks by dropping only two chapters a day that she is controlling us. She must get paid by the page that she writes. We should all stop reading her book.
