“Sonny, I’ll get out of your hair now. Come back when you have time, but let me know in advance, so I can set you up on a date with the girl. Trust me. She’s a nice girl.” “Got it, Mom. Just go and spend time with Dunc now. It’s been a while since you’ve been on a date with him. It’s time to experience what couples do."“Perfect time to stroll downtown. The area comes alive after dark.” Back in Havenmill, Sonny and Laurence would ditch the suits if they got out of work early to check out the boardwalk. It had a bustling vibe. “I think you’re talking about the food trucks there. Alright. I’ll check out the place with Duncan. I’m not eating anything though. No snacking after dark.” Duncan said, “What’s wrong with snacking at night? You have not gained any weight since you moved to Jensburg. Enjoy the food and don’t worry about your weight.” Her hectic workload put her under constant pressure. In the beginning, Liberty often lost sleep. Under that kind of stress, she was lu

The work was never-ending. Liberty vented. Despite this, she still handled the workload with dedication every day. Liberty was very responsible compared to the previous head of the Fishers. Although she also held tightly to the great power, she was much better to the family members. She gave every talented young member of the family a chance, never worrying that they would develop ambitions of taking her place.Liberty had the power and means to put them in their place. In fact, most family members did not have big ambitions. Given a chance, they would fulfill their roles. All they sought was stability. They would not look for trouble so long as they could make a decent living. Liberty took on the responsibility of a leader without connections or support. Yet, she handled everything with unwavering confidence.Jeanne, on the other hand, grew up in the family. The family knew what she was made of. When it came time for Jeanne to take over, she would have an easier time

Hank quickly spotted Luke, Olivia, and Sonny. The family of four chatted with the residents for a while before heading home. Back home, Sonny did not sit around for long. He told Hank, “I've got to go, Dad. I don’t have any plans or work tonight, so I’m getting some early rest.” It was nine at night. Usually, this time was still very early for him, but without any social obligations, he wanted to turn in early. The Browns were reluctant to see him go but knew better than to ask him to stay. Olivia held his hand, urging him to visit more often when he had the time. “Jessica, pack some fruit for Sonny to bring home.” Olivia recalled that Jessica bought some fresh fruit from the supermarket, so she told her to pack some up for Sonny. “I’m good, Grandmom. I’m stocked up at home.” Sonny declined Olivia’s kind gesture. “It’s okay, Jessica. Keep the fruit for yourselves.” He knew that Jessica would splurge on the pricier, better-quality fruit when he came around. Under norma

“I’ve bought a lot of fruit during my grocery run, so there’s no need to get more. Sonny barely eats any,” Jessica said. “The four of us can’t finish that much anyway.”Only Luke and Olivia would look for something to munch on while watching TV. “Alright. I’ll get going then.” “Go on.” Hank turned to head to the elevator as Jessica stepped back into the apartment. With the door closing behind her, her tense nerves relaxed. Finally, she could be alone for a while. She went to the kitchen to do the dishes and tidy up before sitting on the living room sofa. She turned on the television to watch the news. Normally, she would not get much of a chance to relax on the sofa. Luke and Olivia would be there, occupying the seat and the television. Not wanting to share the same room with them, Jessica would either be in the kitchen or the bedroom. The only exception was when Hank was around. Jessica’s favorite thing to do was grocery shopping because she did not have to take Oli

“I’ll talk to my parents. The past is in the past. Besides, it wasn’t just your fault. I was at fault too. In fact, the biggest mistake was mine.“You were young back then and had little life experience. That was why I was able to fool you so easily. I was the one who was unfaithful in my marriage. I ruined your life as well as my own.“We both paid the price for the mistakes we made in our youth, so stop dwelling on the past and move forward. It’s enough as long as we can enjoy a peaceful old age together.”Thinking back on those years made Jessica’s eyes redden. She had also hoped to settle down in the big city through marriage. She had been attracted by Hank’s high income and the apartment he owned in Wiltspoon.Even when the property prices fell, the apartment they lived in barely lost value because of its location and proximity to good schools.When Liberty divorced Hank, she smashed up all the renovations. After Jessica married into the family, they renovated the place again

After dinner, the two elders asked Sonny to accompany them downstairs for a walk.Sonny agreed.He did not have any plans that evening, so he had the time. Taking a walk with his grandparents would also give him a chance to relax.He had been working nonstop and had not truly relaxed in a long time.Hank also wanted to join them, but the dishes were not done yet, so he stayed with Jessica to clean up.“Hank, you should go with them. I’ll handle things here,” Jessica said thoughtfully.“It’s rare that Sonny has time to spend with you. He’s leaving on another business trip soon, and then he’s flying to Havenmill. Who knows when he’ll be back.“The next time he has time to go on walks with you will probably be during New Year’s, but then his mother will come as well, and he’ll be visiting his aunt’s family to spend time with his cousins. He won’t have much time then either.”Every Christmas and New Year’s, Sonny would only spend a few days with the Browns. He never had festive mea
