He switched on the light in the room and picked up his phone to check the time. It was already past midnight.Throwing off the blanket, he got out of bed, quickly dressed, and grabbed his phone and room key before heading out.There were still people by the beach, but not many. Most of those who remained had pitched tents along the sandy beach and planned to spend the night there.Earlier, Mary had suggested they camp on the beach together, but he had refused.The constant sound of the waves would make it hard for him to sleep.The sea breeze was strong as he wandered along the shore. Occasionally, he would startle someone in their tent, making them poke their heads out to look at him.“Kent.”A familiar voice called out to him. He turned toward the sound to see that it was his father.He froze for a moment before quickly walking over.“Dad, why are you still awake at this hour? What are you doing out on the beach?” Kent asked with concern.Geraint questioned him instead. “

Late at night, some were sleeping soundly, while others were wide awake.Kent was one of those sleepless people.He was at the seaside hotel, planning to take his parents back to the city at dawn and go straight to the hospital for a check-up.His parents and Mary were probably already asleep.He and Mary had each booked single rooms, while his parents stayed in a double room on a different floor.Mary happened to be staying in the room next to his.Two hours earlier, she had brought back barbecue and beer, knocked on his door, and asked if he wanted to eat and drink with her.He refused, saying he had to drive early the next morning and should not drink.In truth, he just did not want to be alone with her.After that, she left.It was now past eleven o’clock. Normally, Kent would already be asleep by this hour. He rarely stayed up late, knowing it was harmful to his health.Being a doctor, he valued his well-being greatly and avoided anything detrimental to his health.He
Chapter 5004
“Rowan doesn’t dare to say he’ll surpass all of you, but at least he wants to close the gap so that people won’t say the youngest son of the York family is useless while you’re all so outstanding that he can’t even catch up.“All of that is pressure. Don’t be fooled by how carefree and playful he seems, like a kid who hasn’t grown up. He’s actually under immense pressure. Only in front of us sisters-in-law can he truly relax a bit.”Among all of them, it was the sisters-in-law who truly did not pressure Rowan.Whenever one of his brothers bullied him, he would complain to that brother’s wife, and she would stand up for him.Rowan knew his sisters-in-law were his strongest backing.Zachary snorted. “Having pressure is a good thing. The worst would be if he were completely carefree with no sense of pressure, then he’d never improve.“But from what I see, he’s very optimistic. Even if the sky fell, he would treat it like a blanket.”Serenity agreed with her husband’s assessment.R
Chapter 5003
The business of York Corporation was stable, and with so many capable cousins, they could share much of the workload, so Zachary was never overwhelmed.After marriage, Zachary rarely left early and returned late. Before that, his health had suffered somewhat due to heavy workloads, immense pressure, frequent late nights, and constant social drinking.Later, with fewer late nights and social events, and with his wife keeping an eye on his meals, those minor health issues gradually improved.“Babe, let’s sleep early to get a proper, healthy rest,” Zachary said gently.If they kept talking, he feared Serenity would feel upset thinking about her late parents.Serenity let out a soft hum in his arms.“By the way, how are Alex and Dr. Jones doing?” Zachary asked, successfully shifting his wife’s attention.“Dr. Jones hasn’t fallen for him yet. Alex said he’s taking it slow, focusing on companionship first, then confessing his love for her when she gets more familiar with him.“Nana i
Chapter 5002
When the couple came out of the bathroom, Zachary looked completely satisfied, while Serenity looked embarrassed.Seeing his wife’s flushed, rosy face, Zachary could not help leaning over to steal another kiss. “Babe, we’ve been married for so long, yet you still blush?“Looks like you’re very satisfied with my performance.”“Shut up.” Serenity lightly slapped his lips, stopping him from continuing.She returned to the bed, gently lifted the blanket, and lay beside her daughter. Serenity’s heart melted when she saw Callia’s peaceful sleeping face.Behind her, Zachary supported himself with one hand on the bed while he reached across Serenity’s body to gently pinch their daughter’s cheek.Serenity immediately slapped his hand away and whispered, “If you wake her up and she cries, you’ll have to soothe her.”Zachary smiled. “I barely used any force. How could that wake her?”Callia was his precious daughter, so he would not dare pinch hard. If he made her face red and Grandma May
Chapter 5001
When Zachary returned to the room, Serenity was showered and was just coming out of the bathroom.“Are the boys asleep?” Serenity asked softly.“I turned off the lights for them, so they should fall asleep soon. The three kids were quite active in the evening. Only when Callia cried for you did they stop playing.”Zachary walked over and pulled his wife into his arms.“Babe, don’t you think it’s sweeter when it’s just the two of us? Ever since we had kids, we don’t even dare speak loudly for fear of waking them.”Not to mention intimacy.Even being affectionate required moving their daughter aside to sleep before they dared to be close. Otherwise, they were always worried she might wake up.“Weren’t you the one who wanted kids? When I didn’t get pregnant for half a year after marriage, everyone thought I couldn’t have children. You didn’t say it, but you were anxious inside. You really like kids.”From how much he adored Sonny, it was clear Zachary loved children.Though he al

I am gonna pass if this book does not move on - Old Mrs York is the key to all the stories can’t happen now
I am with calling you - why can’t this move along Carrie NEVER EVER has a chance with Callum why does the author keep dwelling on it. - this entire Carrie story with Longbottom and his deal is atupis and insults the readers
Carrie is boring we already know about her close carrie personality!
Not exciting anymore maybe close account the best way! It’s been years and there is no end? Like too many unnecessary stories! Boring
this is the end?? Are you kidding?? What happens with the rest ??
Too short the chapterdragging recounting story straight to the point waste of money!
Sorry do not want to read any more books
Carrie is so on about her pain and suffering. What about ours having to read about her and her repetitive story line. Seriously
Old dull story ...
I am so sick of hearing and reading about Carrie. She and Mr. Wait, what’s his name again? Anyway, her and her and that thing that she is sleeping with needs to be exposed and dealt with.
I don’t want to see that.
She will not pass until serenity has a baby girl. And the way it’s going it’ll be another two years before that happens. The author keeps repeating everything.
She is so important to the novel- I think the author would be reckless to have her die- at least until the end of this very, very long novel.
The passing of old Mrs. You?! You must be further alone than the rest of us.
Just more wasted chapters about Carrie and same old stuff. On with the other main characters
Oh I don’t want that
I want to express a big fear I have. I fear we're all going to have to experience the passing of old Mrs. York.
