“Grandpa, let’s stick to my plan. Once things have settled down at the office and I have everybody’s loyalty in a few years, I’ll go for IVF and aim for a boy and a girl. “I’d love to have two kids all at once. That way, we don’t have to worry about anyone eyeing our family fortune.” Kaden said, “But I can’t rest easy, knowing that you’re on your own.” “I’m not on my own. I’ll have my own flesh and blood. Mom is going to stay with me. We can live happy lives. I don’t have to stress over my future husband not getting along with Mom. “Besides, the company will stay with the family. I just need to raise two kids before that happens.” Kaden had nothing left to say. It was hard to get a high-caliber man to take the wife’s family name. Even if the guy was willing, his motive was questionable. Kaden must admit that the candidates for the right husband for Everly were limited. Still, there was a chance that a capable man with the right character and mindset was out there. Surel

“Your mother grew up in a sheltered environment. The problem is that she has had it too easy, so she doesn’t have a strong mind of her own. Family is everything to her, and that’s what your aunts and uncles take advantage of. “You’re her favorite person, though. She has given up a lot for you, your dad, and our family. When I’m gone, your mother will only have you. No matter what she does, please don’t hold a grudge against her. “You’re going to take over the family anyway. Your mother gets a bit of money, and that’s all your uncles and aunts can take off her. Of course, it would be ideal if you could help your mom see through that side of the family, so that she would cut them out of her life.” Kaden understood that Maddie was not aggressive in nature. Maddie’s side of the family had been trying to get their hands in the Flemmings’ business through her. Things were slightly better when Maddie’s parents were still alive. Once they died, Maddie’s family dropped all pretense an

Kaden had not gone to bed yet. He was waiting for Everly to return. Though Wiltspoon was a safe city, especially with Sonny and Serenity staying close, Kaden could not sleep until Everly was back. With Everly entering the suite with two bags, Kaden asked dotingly, “You’re back. What did you get? Did you have a fun time shopping?” Everly walked over and sat on the sofa, dumping the two shopping bags on the cushion. She replied, “I didn’t get much. I got two new outfits, and Mrs. York insisted on paying for them. I tried to decline, but she wouldn’t take no for an answer.“She is so nice and lovely. I felt bad about turning her down, so I accepted the two outfits.” While talking, Everly pulled out the clothes. Kaden glanced at the dress and said with a smile, “Oh, you got a dress.” “Mrs. York said that the dress was made for me. I tried it on, and it fits well. I love the design too. She managed to talk me into getting it.” Rising to her feet, Everly held the dress again

“Your mother must be under a lot of pressure, Everly. Spend some time with your mother when you can. She only has you now.” Everly nodded. She was usually busy with work. It had been a while since she had quality time with her mother, Maddie. There were times Everly would not see Maddie despite living under the same roof. She was out at dawn and home after dark. Maddie had not woken up yet when Everly left home in the morning. By the time Everly returned, Maddie had turned in for the night. Everly and Maddie kept missing each other. Aware of Everly’s hectic schedule, Maddie would not call unless there was an emergency. Maddie would get into gardening, painting, or calligraphy to pass the time. Apart from her side of the family, Maddie had no close friends and barely went out to socialize. Whenever Maddie was out, people would always mention her late husband. She would get upset, getting the idea that people were pitying her. As a result, Maddie would rather stay awa

Everly had no cousins on her father’s side and only from her mother’s side.On her father’s side, there were only distant relatives left. The closest ones were from her granduncle’s family—Kaden’s brother-in-law—but she did not see them very often these days.The only side that still maintained regular contact was Maddie’s family. However, Everly did not like her maternal uncles and aunts because they were always trying to get favors from the Flemming family, hoping to take over and carve up Flemming Group.With Everly being twenty-eight and still unmarried, Maddie’s relatives were becoming increasingly anxious. Every now and then, they would introduce her to different men, as if rushing her to get married would somehow strip her of her right to inherit Flemming Group.As if marriage would change anything when she had already taken control of the company.Even if she got married, she would still be a Flemming, and everything from the Flemming family would belong to her. Her matern

Sonny led Serenity and her family into the private dining room upstairs, where he had earlier hosted the Flemmings.“Aunt Seren, I’ll go upstairs and invite Old Mr. Flemming and Ms. Flemming down. The dishes have been ordered, but you can take a look and add anything else you like.”Serenity replied, “If you’ve ordered, that’s fine. This is our hotel anyway. Anything you choose, we’ll eat.”She and Zachary trusted the food here completely. After all, it was their own business.“Go ahead. We’ll have some drinks first.”Sonny muttered an acknowledgment before he left.Not long after, he returned with the duo from the Flemming family.Old Mr. Flemming was an elder, so when Serenity and her family saw them, they all stood up to greet him.“Hello, Old Mr. Flemming, Ms. Flemming.”“Old Mr. Flemming, I don’t think I need to introduce them to you. I’m sure you already know who they are,” Sonny said with a smile. “This is my Aunt Serenity, my Uncle Zachary, and my cousin, Heath, the he
