It was later learned that Laurence had gone to his other property that night. The wealthy had an impressive portfolio of real estate. Manny owned quite a few properties too. “Noelle, his bodyguard, is a huge bother. She fights well. We don’t stand a chance unless we use firearms.” Finally, Susan put down her papers.She slid her reading glasses up her nose and said, “Since both companies are at war, any idiot would know what was up if we sent Roxy to get close to Laurence. “Laurence wouldn’t let Roxy near him. The plan might work only when both companies work together without any conflict.” Manny stopped talking. Susan had a point. A while later, Manny said, “Momma, even if I pretend to play nice and offer a partnership, Laurence is not going to jump on board. He wants to crush us, replace us, and absorb us.“Yes, I believe he’s the kid from way back then. With the huge feud between us, he won’t agree to a truce.” Manny said bitterly, “He’s a total nightmare.” To

Tony stayed silent, still fiddling with his antique.Manny turned to Susan. Susan read the papers, wearing her reading glasses. Sensing Manny’s gaze, she replied indifferently, “Manny, you should know that I have never interfered with the family affairs. It’s not like this is in my power.” During her younger days, she put up with Tony’s affairs. Now that Manny had taken over from Tony, she finally saw the light at the end of the tunnel. However, Susan remained discreet at home since Tony was still alive. Tony was a cold-blooded monster. Susan did not want to be killed at her age. “I’m up there in years now. I don’t have the energy to deal with these matters. I’m sure there’s nothing you can’t do at your age. “You’re not a child anymore. You’re the head of the Longbottoms. Sure, you might only hold an acting position, but you’re still the leader. Show what you got and command some respect. “It’s not about brute force at this age. It takes wits and wisdom to succeed, or

“Chloe, persuade Laurence to just tell Noelle how he feels.” “Trust me. We have all tried. Mom hasn’t stopped nagging him. My aunt grills him every time she comes to visit. Has it worked? Nope. Laurence is just as stubborn as Noelle. They are two of a kind.” Callia chuckled. “They do belong together.” She and Chloe chatted for a while before turning in for the night. Time flew when they were having fun. A week went by in the blink of an eye. Callia had spent two weeks at Austin’s. Having recharged her batteries, she should go to work. The Yorks were reluctant to let her go to work. They wanted to give her their allowances, which were a lot more than she would earn at work. Koben, in particular, clung to her leg and cried his eyes out, begging to go to work with her. Callia had to settle them all down. Still, she was determined to keep her job at FC & Co. Xavier took his future family back to Wiltspoon. Chester was heading there too. While all was good and well with

With the arrival of the York boys, the O’Connor manor was filled with bustling energy. That night, Callia took her younger cousins shopping. She, as the older family member, would buy some things for them. In the end, the younger York boys forked out their allowances to shower her with gifts. They fought over anything pretty and suitable for her. Callia could not even stop them. The York boys said that the allowance they got every month was more than they could spend, so Callia would be doing them a favor. After a night of shopping, Callia came back, her arms full of purchases. Xavier spent the entire evening drowning in jealousy, but it was not like he could do anything about it. These boys were his future family whom he could not afford to upset. It was late into the night when Callia received a response from Chloe. Chloe explained the truth behind the sweater knitting. Callia could not stop laughing. She sent a voice message gleefully. “Chloe. I bet you didn’t think

Woe was Chester. Why was there only one girl in the family? Chester wished his parents had given him a sister between him and Chase. It would be great if he had a sister. Callia was a cousin, and not just exclusive to him. He had to share his cousin with all the other cousins. However, it would be different if he had his very own sister. That evening, the group returned to the O’Connors’ estate. Aware of the arrival of more York kids, the O’Connors waited in the main house. Isabella cleared her schedule and left work early. Even Louis and Philip were there. With a group of children entering the house, the senior members of the O’Connor family grinned from ear to ear. “Uncle Austin. Aunt Isabella.” The kids said hello. They then exchanged greetings with the O’Connors. Louis went up and took Koben right out of Callia’s arms. He said, “It’s been a while since I’ve seen Koben. You’ve grown so much. What grade are you in now?” “You don’t have time to visit. Of cou

Callia grinned as Koben ran toward her. Just before Koben reached her, Callia got down and spread her arms for him to plunge into her embrace. Though Koben came across as annoying and would not leave her alone at times, Callia still missed the little guy when they were apart. Their bond was something else since Callia practically raised him. She had babysat the other cousins, but none of them shared a bed with her as Koben did. Koben was her absolute favorite. “Callie.” Koben sprinted ahead and threw himself into Callia’s arms. She pulled him close and asked with a smile, “Do you miss me?” The little boy hugged Callia’s neck and replied, “I miss you so much. You didn’t even wait for my school break to come here. I had to be patient to get here. “If the others took any longer, I’d have told Dad to ship me over as cargo.” Callia carried him and said with a smile, “No one’s going to let you travel on your own. By waiting for the others, you can have a safe travel here to

Has anyone else been blocked from opening the next chapter?
I with other readers. I will never buy a Good Novel book again. Kinda sad. Because in the beginning really liked it. Sad!!!!
What is going on? Why are my comments being blocked?
We all need to be patient, this might be a hobby for the writer they have other responsibilities like all of us. Take a walk in there shoes and see if you can write a book.
Can you really stop at this point? What a waste of time and money!
this is unadulterated bullshit. don't you care that your readers are tired of the procrastination.dinish the damn story including the side stories and don't start any more side stories.
When I started reading this book back in February of 2023, I never taught it was going to be going on forever.I’m so over GoodNovel will never read anything from here again.
Am done with reading from this site once this unending book finish. Don’t know if this writer want us to wait till eternity. I have never wasted so much time reading a book till i bump on this app. Kept repeating what we already know. So tired.
Why does the writer give literally 2 pages a day? It’s ridiculous and all the time he wastes re explaining things we ALREADY KNOW!! Yes everyone in the story is a foodie we get it!! Get on with the rest of the book!! Jeez
I think you suck! What is the purpose of giving us very pages to read and then you tell us the book is being ‘serialized’. We PAY to read these books so let us read. I don’t want to start another book I want to finish what I’m reading. Think this will have to be the last book I read with with u
You really suck as a writer.
This will go on for another week I guess. Please for once more chapters.
After aii thie time time is all you have,really?
