Callia said, “See? You’re doing it again. You have no problem seeing Chloe and me as your sisters, but why can’t you treat Laurence like family?“You were by each other’s side for over a decade.“My life belonged to my late mentor. The one thing he drilled into me was to keep Mr. Laurence safe and take good care of him. No matter the danger, I must protect him from harm.” Noelle was Laurence’s bodyguard and faithful servant. “Noelle, are you asking me to help you ask Chloe?” Noelle replied, “Mr. Laurence has been neglecting his duties. Work has piled up.” She had persuaded Laurence, but the latter refused to listen to her. He said he needed to get the hang of knitting now that he had gotten into it. Noelle was eager to know why Chloe told Laurence to get into knitting. “Why don’t you ask Chloe yourself, Noelle?” Noelle replied, “Chloe’s busy. I can’t disturb her.” Callie grinned. Noelle could not bother Chloe, but Callie was fair game since she was on vacation. C

With Xavier behind the wheel, he took Callia and Chester to the airport. Two cars driven by bodyguards trailed closely behind them. Midway, Callia received a photo from Noelle. Callia was surprised as the message came from Noelle. Noelle was a kind soul who was like a sister to Callia. While Noelle adored Callia, she was not the type to send images. She would call for anything because, according to her, calling was just convenient and fast. Texting was a chore because typing took time. Noelle was just like Laurence. No wonder they fell in love. They were just the same kind of people. Callia tapped on the photo. It was a photograph of Laurence. Noelle must have snapped the picture. Hang on. What was Laurence doing? Sitting on the sofa, Laurence was knitting a sweater! Soon enough, Noelle sent a video clip. Callia tapped on the video to hit play. In the video, Laurence was all thumbs at knitting. The ball of yarn fell to the floor and rolled away, trailing a long st

“Mom said that I would get total control of my allowance once I’m in middle school. I could then get whatever building sets I want. “I guess tonight. Callie and I are picking up Koben and the others at the airport. They are on the flight over. We’ll take you shopping tonight and get whatever you want.” Since the Yorks saw Xavier as part of the family, the latter felt the need to dote on the younger members. Chester smiled gleefully, “Thank you!” Callia gave him a squeeze on the cheek. “Xavier and I aren’t married yet. Aren’t you a little too eager? “You can ask for things from him in a few years.’ Chester said happily, “Well, you’re getting married anyway. It’s not like you’re going to marry someone else. For now, he’s family. Xavi ought to get used to the role anyway.” Xavier grinned. “Chester is right. I should get familiar with being part of the family. I have no experience with getting along with my in-laws. I’m nervous.” Callia had no words. No wonder Xavier was

“Alright, Heath. I got to go. Callie and I are heading off to the airport soon.” Heath urged him to be safe behind the wheel before hanging up. After the call, Xavier told Callia, “As if Chester isn’t a big enough third wheel, now we have nine of them coming. We won’t get a chance to have a private chat.” Callia shrugged and said helplessly, “What can I do? I’m like an older sister to them. I’m the only girl in the family. “You’re stuck with me, my brother, and my cousins. Maybe you want to reconsider someone else.” Xavier tapped her nose. “Don’t say that.“You’re the only one for me. I will marry no one else. You have my heart. You’re not getting rid of me.” Xavier would ruin any guy who dared steal Callia from him. The Buchams were not to be messed with. Xavier did not mind tapping into his privilege just to keep Callia near him. “I was kidding.” Callia said with a smile, “I know you won’t want anyone else. Come on. We should get inside and let Uncle Austin know.
Chapter 5310
According to Sawyer, if Koben had not been born, he would be the youngest in the family. He had the family’s undivided attention as the baby, but Koben took away affection that belonged to the youngest five years later. That was the reason why Sawyer and Koben did not get along. Fortunately, Sawyer still watched over Koben outside of home, but the bickering still happened behind closed doors. “They all came back?” Heath replied, “Since you were at Uncle Austin’s, and Koben was dying to get to you, they made their way back and followed Koben to yours. Uncle Austin is made aware of their arrival.” Expecting more family to arrive, Austin went to get groceries since the ingredients at home were not enough to feed them all. It was lively to have the kids gathered around the dinner table. The company helped with the appetite, and they could clean out a horse. Austin loved the bustle, and so did the O’Connors. Even if the kids could scream the house down, the O’Connors would n

Ring, ring…Xavier’s phone went off. He glanced at the caller ID and told Callia, “It’s Heath.” Callia gestured for Xavier to take the call. Xavier mumbled, “Shouldn’t Heath be busy? Why does he have time to call me?” Still, he accepted the call from his future brother-in-law. “Xavier, Koben and the others are on the flight. They will be arriving three hours later. You need to pick them up at the airport.” Taken aback, Xavier said, “So soon?” Heath replied, “Soon? Koben has been talking my ear off about getting there, but I didn’t have time to take him since we were expecting guests at home. I managed to keep him down until today. “Koben has been nagging for days that he wants Callie. You didn’t tell him that you were going over, so he had to wait for a few days before traveling to Uncle Austin’s.”Xavier replied, “He’s permanently attached to Callie. I can’t have a decent talk with Callie when he’s around. Koben never leaves Callie alone. The thing I can’t stand the
