“Uncle Zack is truly devoted to Aunt Seren. They’ve been married for decades, but they're as in love as if they were still in their first relationship—no, they’re more in love than most people's first relationships.”Sonny replied, “Well, Mom and Dunc have a great relationship too, you know.”“Oh, absolutely. My parents are incredibly devoted to each other, and Dad spoils Mom more than anyone. That's why when I eventually marry, I want to find a man just like him.”Jeanne was well aware that her future husband would have to marry into her family rather than her marrying into his. In fact, her parents had started scouting the local areas and neighboring cities for eligible young bachelors. They specifically looked for families with multiple sons, knowing that parents with an only one child would rarely agree to let their son marry into another family.Of course, the candidates could not be slackers either; spoiled trust-fund brats were strictly out of the question. While they di

Sonny said with a smile, “Never. I always have time for you.” He motioned for Jeanne to sit on the sofa. “Coffee or tea?” After much thought, Jeanne replied, “I’ll just have a glass of water. I want to go to bed early tonight, so no caffeine for me.” “Alright.’ Sonny poured Jeanne a drink and grabbed some of her favorite snacks. Making herself at home, Jeanne took the snacks and ripped open the wrapper to munch on. “Are you heading to Aunt Seren’s place for dinner?” Sonny asked while taking a seat across from her. “Since I’m here, Aunt Seren is going to be upset if I don’t have dinner with her. I’ll give her a call in a bit, but I can only do dinner. I’m heading back to Jensburg first thing in the morning.” “Look at you, busier than I am.” Sonny took out his phone. “I’ll let Aunt Seren know now.” He dialed Serenity’s number. Once the call connected, he said, “Aunt Seren, Jiggy was in Gallinger for business and stopped by Wiltspoon. She’s going to yours for dinner

Ever since her release, Jessica would always think about her unborn child whenever she saw a young person. If she had not suffered a miscarriage, she would never have hit rock bottom and made one mistake after another. She would not have served more than ten years in jail. For all she knew, she could have been released earlier and still be young enough to bond with the child. She would not have to rely on her stepson for her retirement. Thankfully, Sonny was a child of reason. Had he been cold, vindictive, and unreasonable, he would not have just thrown her to the streets, but he might even have had her killed. That was life. It was also her karma. Back then, Jessica flirted with Hank even though he had a family. She ruined someone else’s marriage, only for her own to later fall apart. She worked hard to get an early release from prison for good behavior. Otherwise, Jessica would still be behind bars. Hank clung to their past affection and waited for her to get out of pri

Jessica said, “Sonny wired another hundred thousand dollars?” She accepted the transfer of fifty thousand dollars on behalf of Hank. “He sent the money to my bank account. The fifty thousand dollars on Apple Cash is just to make things convenient for us when we’re out and about.” Hank kept funds on Apple Cash for daily expenses. “We have beaches here in Wiltspoon. It’s a bit of a drive from our place, but the cost won’t be as high if we keep it local. I don’t need new clothes. I have plenty to wear. I haven’t gone through all the hand-me-downs from Sonny’s aunt. “Her clothes are good quality and high-end brands. We can never buy those kinds of clothes on our budget.” Serenity was going to get rid of her old clothes. When Hank found out, he plucked up the courage to call Serenity and ask for the clothes on behalf of Jessica. Even if the clothes were hand-me-downs, the items Serenity discarded were mostly new. Her clothes were fine, so Jessica was not one to refuse. In J

Chelsea was lost for words. She was infuriated. No one in the family was on her side. However, it was not as if she could walk away from her family for good. At the end of the day, they were family. Chelsea was still Sonny’s aunt, even if the latter would not give her the time of day. Chelsea would get an invite when Sonny got married. Sure, she would not get to sit at the head of the table, but it would be an honor just to attend the wedding since Sonny hung around the elites. She would bring her husband and children along and get acquainted with high society. They might even rub shoulders with some powerful business tycoons. By cutting ties, Chelsea would not be recognized as Sonny’s aunt. She would not be on the guest list when Sonny was to get married. Even when her family refused to support her, Chelsea never once entertained the thought of cutting contact despite her resentment. Meanwhile, Sonny just came out of a brief meeting and returned to his office. Feel

Chelsea was not alone, stunned by the whole thing, because Hank stood there in a daze too while Jessica shoved Chelsea into the car. After threatening Chelsea, Jessica went to the front passenger seat and buckled up. She told Hank, “Drive, babe. Take your sister back to Olivia’s home. If Chelsea comes back here again, we won’t be so kind anymore.” Snapping back to reality, Hank started the engine. Infuriated, Chelsea yelled, “This is a private matter, you vile woman! It’s none of your business. Sonny is my nephew. I’m not asking him to commit a crime. I just want to see him. Is that wrong?”“I didn’t see you being so nice to him before. You’re finally acting like an aunt now that he’s grown up successfully and loaded. Ask yourself. Have you been a decent aunt to him over the years? “Don’t make yourself out to be a saint. I know you. I can testify to every dirty laundry in your family.“I don’t care what you’re up to, Chelsea, but Sonny is bankrolling Hank and me. He’s our pr
