“Mom said that I would get total control of my allowance once I’m in middle school. I could then get whatever building sets I want. “I guess tonight. Callie and I are picking up Koben and the others at the airport. They are on the flight over. We’ll take you shopping tonight and get whatever you want.” Since the Yorks saw Xavier as part of the family, the latter felt the need to dote on the younger members. Chester smiled gleefully, “Thank you!” Callia gave him a squeeze on the cheek. “Xavier and I aren’t married yet. Aren’t you a little too eager? “You can ask for things from him in a few years.’ Chester said happily, “Well, you’re getting married anyway. It’s not like you’re going to marry someone else. For now, he’s family. Xavi ought to get used to the role anyway.” Xavier grinned. “Chester is right. I should get familiar with being part of the family. I have no experience with getting along with my in-laws. I’m nervous.” Callia had no words. No wonder Xavier was

“Alright, Heath. I got to go. Callie and I are heading off to the airport soon.” Heath urged him to be safe behind the wheel before hanging up. After the call, Xavier told Callia, “As if Chester isn’t a big enough third wheel, now we have nine of them coming. We won’t get a chance to have a private chat.” Callia shrugged and said helplessly, “What can I do? I’m like an older sister to them. I’m the only girl in the family. “You’re stuck with me, my brother, and my cousins. Maybe you want to reconsider someone else.” Xavier tapped her nose. “Don’t say that.“You’re the only one for me. I will marry no one else. You have my heart. You’re not getting rid of me.” Xavier would ruin any guy who dared steal Callia from him. The Buchams were not to be messed with. Xavier did not mind tapping into his privilege just to keep Callia near him. “I was kidding.” Callia said with a smile, “I know you won’t want anyone else. Come on. We should get inside and let Uncle Austin know.
Chapter 5310
According to Sawyer, if Koben had not been born, he would be the youngest in the family. He had the family’s undivided attention as the baby, but Koben took away affection that belonged to the youngest five years later. That was the reason why Sawyer and Koben did not get along. Fortunately, Sawyer still watched over Koben outside of home, but the bickering still happened behind closed doors. “They all came back?” Heath replied, “Since you were at Uncle Austin’s, and Koben was dying to get to you, they made their way back and followed Koben to yours. Uncle Austin is made aware of their arrival.” Expecting more family to arrive, Austin went to get groceries since the ingredients at home were not enough to feed them all. It was lively to have the kids gathered around the dinner table. The company helped with the appetite, and they could clean out a horse. Austin loved the bustle, and so did the O’Connors. Even if the kids could scream the house down, the O’Connors would n

Ring, ring…Xavier’s phone went off. He glanced at the caller ID and told Callia, “It’s Heath.” Callia gestured for Xavier to take the call. Xavier mumbled, “Shouldn’t Heath be busy? Why does he have time to call me?” Still, he accepted the call from his future brother-in-law. “Xavier, Koben and the others are on the flight. They will be arriving three hours later. You need to pick them up at the airport.” Taken aback, Xavier said, “So soon?” Heath replied, “Soon? Koben has been talking my ear off about getting there, but I didn’t have time to take him since we were expecting guests at home. I managed to keep him down until today. “Koben has been nagging for days that he wants Callie. You didn’t tell him that you were going over, so he had to wait for a few days before traveling to Uncle Austin’s.”Xavier replied, “He’s permanently attached to Callie. I can’t have a decent talk with Callie when he’s around. Koben never leaves Callie alone. The thing I can’t stand the
Chapter 5308
No one in their right mind would lay a finger on Callia in school. For starters, Callia was a straight-A student, the apple of the faculty’s eye. For another, it was no secret that she had a big send-off on the first day of school. No one had the nerve to hurt her. When she was in the ninth grade, her cousins were in the tenth and eleventh grades in the same school. They had her back. The biggest nuisance she faced daily was being bombarded by love letters for her cousins. She had never received one because no one had the guts to express their love to her, knowing she had a close family friend and boy cousins. She served as a human mailbox for her cousins, sorting through mountains of love letters without ever seeing one addressed to herself. She did receive quite a few gifts, and some of them were for her. The girls, eager to court her extended family, knew better than to ignore the messenger, so they made sure to slip her a little something when they had a gift for the boys
Chapter 5307
Hand in hand, Xavier and Callia strolled further down the shaded path of the backyard.The O’Connors’ residence was not quite Wildridge Manor, but the scale of the place was massive. It was quiet in the backyard with tree-lined paths, a little bridge over trickling water, and a winding pathway. It was pure bliss just to take a stroll in the area while catching the breeze. Austin had two sons, and the younger was twelve, so the manor was quiet. At times, the leaves rustled against the blowing wind, breaking the silence of the backyard. “Do you want to take a seat?” Spotting the gazebo up ahead, Xavier asked Callia tenderly. “Alright.”Xavier pulled her along to the gazebo. “This brings back memories. You couldn’t walk straight when you were one, but you ran behind us anyway.“You fell when we were running around your family’s manor. Heath wasn’t the one to pick you up. It was me. We tried to make you stop crying before the adults heard you.“You were everybody’s darling.

Enough is enough. Two years lost over $700.00 please make longer chapter and end the book please. Worst mistake I’ve made
I love it!
I don’t think it would do any good.
I wonder if the FTC has been told about how they run their business 18 minutes of reading
Just leave a chapter open. Until you get the bonus.
It is all the books on this app.
You can’t earn reading bonuses when there’s not 15 minutes worth of reading! This is crazy!
Omg I’m about to delete this book app why can’t we have more then to chapters a day I never saw anything like this in other book store apps
Stop sending me alerts that there are available chapters when I have already read what is posted. We already know what you are posting. Get on with the story.
Come on give us more then 2 chapters
Again a couple of pages No extra reading bonus And repetitive I’ve had enough
Unbelievable that you have only posted a cliffhanger AGAIN! Do you have an end to any of this or just dragging it along because you don’t know how to bring any of it together? This is just poor presentation and robbery!
Really? When I read, I read and 3 chapters where a chapter is 5 or 6 pages,IS NOT READING. I WISH I HAD KNOWN FROM THE BEGINNING WHAT A WASTE OF TIME AND MONEY THIS BOOK IS!!!
It is sad how they are ripping off people by only given us three chapters.
Very tiring just get Belinda out of the way and move on to better things
So true it’s ridiculous I can read a whole book before 3chapter is posted stop dragging ...
It sucks. I have been discouraging people from reading Good Novels
This is ridiculous! All this money being paid for this book. I’ve been reading it for eight months now, and we get barely a chapter the past couple of days??!!!!
