Steven’s arrogance visibly diminished, and he looked somewhat guilty, but he quickly asked with concern, “Is Old Mr. Flemming alright? Does he need to go to the hospital?”They could not afford for anything to happen to the old man.Although Kaden was incredibly annoyed with the Zellers, he still remembered that their families were in-laws and was willing to continue helping Zellerco.If Kaden were no longer around, Everly would take over. She had little affection for the Zellers, so Steven could not guarantee that the family would continue to receive help from the Flemmings.He had heard that Everly wanted to cut ties with Zellerco more than once, saying that doing business with them was essentially charity.His niece really was ruthless.She did not treat him, her uncle, particularly well either. The only people she was close to were her grandparents, but once they were gone, she could bring the axe down at any moment, and the Zellers would be finished.Steven understood that

Maddie entered the house. When Steven saw her, he merely snorted, as if he had suffered some enormous injustice.Unusually, Maddie did not greet him. After sitting down, she waited until Tessa came in before asking, “Where are Mom and Dad?”“They’re probably chatting with people around the neighborhood. They love to go out every day to listen to gossip, then come home and tell us all about it.”Tessa placed the nutritional supplements Maddie had brought on the coffee table and said to her husband, “Maddie knows you’re angry, so she brought all these supplements. Don’t be mad anymore.”She sat down beside Steven and nudged him twice, urging him to say something.However, Maddie said, “Those supplements are for Mom, Dad, and you, Tessa. I didn’t bring them here to apologize to Steven or anything. I have nothing to apologize for.”The moment she finished speaking, Steven’s expression changed. Even Tessa looked at her in surprise.She was shocked that her sister-in-law could actuall

“If I didn’t make an excuse, how could I create an opportunity for them to be alone? And if they never spend time alone, how are they supposed to develop feelings for each other? The only other time they met was when Everly and I went to Wiltspoon.“This time, Sonny came to Clearfield, so it’s only their second meeting.“They’ve barely met, so they naturally haven’t had much time together, but we can create opportunities for them.“Anyway, don’t worry about Everly’s marriage anymore. I’ll take care of it. Do you think I wouldn’t consider what’s best for my own granddaughter?”Maddie nodded repeatedly. “I understand. From now on, if my brother or the others try to introduce a guy to Everly, I’ll turn them down.”Sonny was indeed much better than the men her siblings had introduced. Putting aside his abilities and background, even his looks were exceptional.Besides, Kaden was right. Whenever someone else introduced a man to Everly, there were usually some ulterior motives.Howeve

The previous time, Steven wanted to introduce the son of the Zellers’ neighbor to Everly. Maddie had objected because she thought the young man was too flirtatious, but Steven insisted that he was simply good with words and was actually very devoted in relationships.In the end, it was only after Kaden told them to stop interfering that Steven dropped the subject.This time, the man being introduced was Andy’s son. Maddie had met him several times and thought he seemed well-matched with Everly, so she listened to her brother and agreed.“I… I’ve met Nate several times. I thought he seemed quite good, so I agreed when my brother introduced him to Everly. We can’t always assume that everyone is only after the Flemming fortune.“If we do that, it’ll be very difficult for Everly to find a suitable man. I-I don’t know what Nate did to make Everly so angry…”Maddie trailed off.She knew that there was no point in saying anything more. Kaden was angry, and so was Everly. She was mad at

Over the decades, Maddie continued to mourn Ike’s death as his widow. Thus, Kaden tolerated her for her steadfastness in giving birth to the Flemmings’ only offspring back then. Plus, Everly was outstanding enough to bear the responsibility of helming Flemming Group.Kaden could rest in peace after death.That was why, for the past few decades, the Flemmings continued to support the Zellers, and Kaden merely closed an eye whenever Maddie sent things to her birth family. It was only some supplements, after all, as his daughter-in-law did not have access to large amounts of money and her authority was limited to the household. She held no decision-making power, nor could she interfere in anything else.However, the Zellers constantly tried to manipulate Everly through these ties, and Kaden had seriously had enough of it.It was not once or twice. It had happened countless times now.No matter how good-tempered or how great the debt of gratitude was, he could not tolerate it anymore.

“Yes, I’m making a visit. You’re not feeling well?” Maddie asked in concern. “What’s wrong? Do you need to see the doctor? I’ll call the family doctor to stop by.”She followed Kaden back into the house and placed the gifts she prepared on the coffee table. Kaden glanced over them and saw they were all expensive supplements and health foods.There was no need for the Zellers to buy things of the sort because the moment they ran out, they only had to make a call to Maddie for her to hurriedly send some home.If she was giving them to her parents, Kaden had no comments about it, because it was normal for children to show filial piety to their parents. However, most of the time, the stuff she brought home was divided up between her siblings. Rarely, or not at all, was any left for her parents.When they needed more, they would call Maddie.All these years, the Zellers were used to mooching off of Maddie because the Flemmings were much better off, and Everly was their only offspring.
