“We’re eating together as a family. It’s enough to just throw together a few simple dishes. It’s not like I’m picky.”Sonny looked at Jessica, who felt a little awkward, then said, “Sorry to trouble you again, Jess.”“Oh, it’s no trouble at all, no trouble. I have to buy fresh ingredients to cook every day anyway, and it’s just a couple of extra dishes, so it’s no trouble at all,” Jessica hurriedly said.Ever since she had torn Chelsea a new one in Sonny’s defense, Sonny had become a little more amiable toward her.This child was a forthright one and very sensible. It was all because Liberty had taught him well.Sometimes, Jessica would think of the child she had lost. If she had successfully given birth and not lost the child while having to go to prison, the child would have been entrusted to Hank’s parents to care for. It was hard to say how they would have taught the child.Even Hank could not raise a child well.She sighed internally. She and her child simply were not writt

Sonny laughed. “Yes, yes, I’m working for myself. Alright, I really have got to go now. Talk to you later.”Then, he hung up.He had arrived at Hank’s door.He walked up to it and rang the doorbell.Very soon, his grandmother opened the door.“You’re here, Sonny.”Olivia smiled happily when she saw that it was her precious grandson. She turned to say to Luke, who was sitting on the sofa inside, “Dear, Sonny’s here.”“Grandmom.”Sonny entered their home, then greeted his grandfather.Hank and Jessica came out of the kitchen where they had been preparing dinner.Usually, the family had simple meals, not because they could not afford more luxurious food, but because everyone was getting on in years now and they were afraid of getting high cholesterol and high blood pressure. Luke had blood pressure and uric acid on the higher side, so he had to be careful about his diet.Tonight, Sonny was joining them for dinner, so Jessica had specially bought more food, while Hank had not wo

“Now that you’ve taken over the position of family head, you’re going to hold a banquet, right? Have you chosen the date already? I’m going to Clearfield tomorrow for work, and I might be there for about a week or so. If you’re still picking a date, choose a later one, so that I’ll be able to make it.“We definitely have to attend such an important occasion to support you.”Laurence had taken over the leadership of the Longbottom family and was officially assuming the position of the head of the family. He was definitely going to hold a banquet and invite all the who’s who of Havenmill.His friends and family definitely had to attend, too, not only to support the event but also to back him up and to tell the world he wasn't just an orphan—he actually had plenty of backers.Laurence said, “I’ve not picked a date yet. Don’t worry, it won’t clash with your schedule. You said you were coming back soon, though. Why do you still have to go on a week-long business trip? Are things very bu

“That’s right, Noelle. You have us to back you up, so don’t worry about being looked down on by people. The most important thing is that you don’t look down on yourself.”Noelle was touched beyond words.With Jane’s and Lilian’s reassurances, she felt better.After all, it was not that she did not love Laurence. She just worried that her status was not a match for Laurence’s.“If Laurence tries to give you that necklace again as a symbol of the love between the two of you, just accept it. You deserve it and are certainly worthy of it as well.“As long as Laurence doesn’t look down on you, there’s no need to bother or care about whatever anyone else says. Don’t make things hard on yourself.”Noelle nodded.“Where’s Laurence?”Lilian only thought of her disciple after she managed to persuade Noelle.“He’s preparing dinner. I said I’d do it, but he wouldn’t let me. He said he hadn’t cooked in such a long time that he was about to forget how to cook, and that he had to practice mo

Picking up where Jane left off, Lilian said, "Those people are just jealous that you have Laurence’s heart. You’re the subject of envy. They are just bitter that they can’t have what you have. “Live your own life. No one else matters.”“When Ben and I were dating, didn’t people gossip about us too? I didn’t care about what they said because they were just jealous.” Jane had not found her biological parents when she first married Ben. She had no idea that she came from a powerful family. Most people believed that Jane did not deserve Ben because he was the heir of the Johnsons, the leader of FC & Co. Meanwhile, Jane was just the owner of a tiny café. Though her adoptive parents were well off, their wealth was nothing compared to that of the Johnsons, the richest family in Annenburg. “Besides, you should trust Laurence to protect you. He won’t let anyone talk badly about you. He is a nice guy, but very few can handle his wrath when he’s upset.” Laurence was patient and broad-m

“Mom, Master… Don’t you think I’m not good enough for Mr. Laurence?” Lilian gave Noelle a light rap on the head. Jane glared at Noelle. Noelle rubbed the sore spot and cried in pain, “Master.” It had been ages since Lilian did that to her. “I don’t want to hear that coming from you again. Don’t you dare think about it. I can’t stand to hear it. Who said you weren’t good enough? Spill the beans. I’m going to have a word with these people. How do you not deserve Laurence? You’re an outstanding woman, unlike any other.“Laurence was first to choose you, and he’s crazy about you. If not, I would’ve let Crybaby Ollie go after you instead. I adore you. You’re the ideal daughter-in-law to me.” Noelle stayed by Laurence’s side to keep him safe. Though she was also business-savvy enough to help Laurence at work, she did not have the chance to shine because Laurence and Sonny were great at what they did. The public would think Noelle was crude and only good at fighting. However, h

I've been reading this for a year and just over half through it. Too much repetitive writing.
Dragging too much- losing interest. This is being childish. Her telling him what happened doesn’t mean he will get involved.
They need to be more open in their marriage. Communication is the key to a successful relationship
Serenity is very selfish name calling is really disrespectful. No wonder he feels insecure.
can upload more chapters like before instead of 3-4 a day
Author should please hurry up and give more chapters instead of 4 a day…..I hope this book won’t drag.
I love this novel but I think Zach's character development is going down the drain..tssk tssk
This book was very interesting for me in the beginning mostly because it got to the point and did not drag. Author this is starting to drag and find myself not as excited to read your updates. This is partly because the updates dont solve anything or make much progression.
I think Hank is now seeing how his family messed up his life by their interference and greed. He will see how Jessica really is when he looses everything . He should appreciated what he had and worked on his marriage and not allow his family to influence him. She would of stuck by him no matter wha
I think Serenity is a little to logical and insensitive at times and Zachary gets insecure because of it. Zachary does throw tantrums and has some emotional growing up to do.
I hope zachary and serenity won't end up getting a divorce when he reveals his true identity... More chapter please...
