Easy, Mr. Bigshot Chapter 288 Savoring Coffee
The care Jethro had shown me lately was extraordinary. He cherished me like a precious gem, and those moments were undeniably the happiest of my life.Exiting the apartment complex, I was momentarily startled when a sleek black Mercedes came to an abrupt stop before me. I frowned briefly but didn't let it bother me as I was in a good mood. I started to walk around the car when the back window rolled down, revealing Doris' stern face.At the sight of her, my heart skipped a beat. Doris had always opposed the relationship between Jethro and me, and her unexpected visit was filled with ominous tidings. As the wedding draws closer, her anxiety must be escalating.Regardless of my unease, I approached her and greeted her respectfully, "Hello, Mrs. Doris."Ever since our first encounter, I had always approached Doris with courtesy. Alas, it was a gesture she never reciprocated.Doris’ eyes skimmed over me with a fleeting glance of disapproval, then refocused on my face. "Ms. Serena, we
Easy, Mr. Bigshot Chapter 289 Together Because of Love
In the face of Doris' calculated words, I maintained a respectful silence and bowed my head slightly. Her intention was clear—to emphasize my lack of sophistication compared to Jethro's world."This is just like the gap between you and Jethro. You're from different worlds, so your tastes differ. Even if you get married, your life habits will be poles apart. Jethro has always lived a life of luxury, while you're just a simple girl from the countryside. This disparity makes you ill-suited for each other," Doris remarked, her voice calm but laced with underlying disdain.I had always been conscious of the differences between Jethro and me, yet my belief that love knew no boundaries remained. In my opinion, love was a bond between two souls, not a match of status or wealth.I knew Doris came today to humiliate me and highlight the disparity between me and Jethro. Even though her words stung, I had no intention of giving up my relationship with Jethro."Mrs. Doris, Jethro and I will sur

"Why you!" Doris was taken aback by my resolute refusal, staring at me with a mix of anger and disbelief."Mrs. Doris, if your sole purpose today is to discuss this matter, then I must apologize. I can’t comply with your request. I will not leave Jethro regardless of what you say or do." I held her gaze. Being with Jethro was my only source of happiness now, and I wouldn’t let anything ruin it."You will do well to remember that I’m Jethro's mother, Ms. Serena! How do you think he will feel about your attitude toward me?" Doris said after recovering from her shock, her eyes glinting with anger."It's precisely because you’re his mother that I’ve shown patience. Yet, you’ve never given me even an ounce of respect," I countered in frustration.If Doris wasn’t Jethro's mother, I wouldn’t have strived so hard to gain her approval. But in her eyes, my efforts were insignificant compared to her expectations. It seemed like she valued benefits and opportunities over Jethro's happiness."
Easy, Mr. Bigshot Chapter 291 An Apology With an Ulterior Motive
Jethro studied my expression, his brow furrowing in confusion before he gently asked, "You seem distressed. Is everything okay?"Met with his concern, I was unsure of how to respond to his question. I debated whether to tell Jethro about the conversation I had with Doris. I didn’t want to burden him with worries."It’s nothing. Probably just the heat making me feel uncomfortable. I’ll be fine after some rest," I answered, attempting a smile to ease his worry.I hoped he would accept this light explanation, but he saw through it. "That doesn't convince me one bit. What’s really bothering you?"After much hesitation, I decided honesty was the best approach. I didn’t want any secrets between us that might cause misunderstandings. "Umm... Your mom came to see me today."Jethro's expression immediately turned somber, his demeanor shifting to one of concern. It was unclear if he was upset with her for interfering or with me for tattling. My heart raced with anxiety. He remained quiet fo
Easy, Mr. Bigshot Chapter 292 Seeing Jethro as a Golden Goose
I had always longed for this kind of care from Mom, but now that she was actually expressing it, everything felt surreal. The more attentively she behaved, the more I sensed something amiss."Don't worry, Mom. I've just been really busy lately, which is why I haven't had time to come by..." Though partly true, I refrained from admitting that old resentments also played a role in my absence."I know what you’re thinking. I’m at fault for what happened last time. I didn't consider your feelings," Mom said regretfully with a lowered gaze.As I saw all this, I was in complete disbelief. Mom had never admitted her faults before. What changed today? Had the sun risen from the West? Why was she apologizing all of a sudden? My heart fluttered slightly, unable to comprehend this sudden change of attitude, but her apology did bring me some comfort."Let's just leave the past behind, Mom," I said, preferring to move beyond the painful memories."Okay, we won’t talk about the past then," Mom
Easy, Mr. Bigshot Chapter 293 The Matter of the Dowry
Sean looked at me with surprise. "Thank you, Rina."This was the first time my brother had ever thanked me.The conversation then shifted, and Mom broached a delicate subject. "Rina, you and Jethro are about to get married. In our village, it's customary for the groom to present a dowry. Have you discussed this with Jethro?"I knew about the custom of dowries in rural marriages, but I didn’t want such traditional practices to dictate my relationship with Jethro. Our union was about love, not about financial transactions.I frowned slightly, not responding to Mom’s question. The truth was that I had never brought up the topic of dowry with Jethro and had no intention of asking him for one. Of course, Jethro could easily afford it, but asking for money from the groom felt like I was selling myself, and I despised feeling that way.Mom’s gaze intensified as she waited for my response. "Haven’t you talked to Jethro about this? You should know that this is a very important custom." Her
Easy, Mr. Bigshot Chapter 294 The Unease
As Jethro and Anna left the restaurant together, I watched helplessly, struggling to grasp the scene unfolding before me. Anna’s apparent joy contrasted sharply with Jethro’s stoic demeanor. I just couldn't decipher his feelings.They both got into his car, which soon drove off, but not toward Verdantia where he and I lived. As his car disappeared, I ran after it for a few steps, but how could I possibly catch up with a car?I smiled bitterly. Had all my perceived happiness been an illusion? Was his love for me genuine?I slowly made my way home, haunted by the image of them together. Compelled by a need for answers, I stopped and called Jethro. It felt like the phone rang forever before he picked up. His voice, deep and sexy, conveyed no signs of anything amiss, and his calmness only deepened the chill in my heart."Where are you?" I asked, fighting to keep my voice even."I just finished dinner with a client. I’m on my way home now. If you’re tired, go to bed first. Don’t wait u
Easy, Mr. Bigshot Chapter 295 I Didn’t Want to Worry You
"Why are you angry then?" Seeing me dismiss his guess, Jethro grew more puzzled. He had no idea that I had caught him having dinner with Anna.I looked into his eyes. My mouth opened to ask the burning questions in my mind, but the words wouldn't come out. I had no idea where my courage had gone."Serena, if you have something to say, just speak up." Jethro’s expression grew dark, visibly getting impatient."Who were you with tonight?"The words finally escaped me. I needed the truth, no matter the cost to our relationship. Though just an ordinary woman, I couldn't tolerate deceit in my life.Jethro paused, taken aback by my question. He didn't answer right away, and his expression grew colder. "Why are you suddenly asking me this? What do you know?" His response, laced with a hint of wariness, suggested he had guessed my suspicions."Just answer my question," I said, bypassing his question. I was waiting for him to tell me the truth, hoping for no secrets between us.Caught off

I knew that nothing I said to the contrary was going to convince Jethro otherwise. All he cared about now was protecting his little princess. "Okay then, I'll be waiting for you at home. Don't work overtime tonight, okay?""Got it! I'll be home soon," he agreed smilingly. I was sure he’d have gone home with me straight away if it weren't for work.Doris was already waiting by the time I got home. She looked both excited and assured. "So? Pregnant, right?""You nailed it!" I laughed."Oh dear! Seren’s going to get a sibling soon!" she chirped. I shook my head helplessly. I should’ve been the happiest one, but the Willows were just one-upping me one after another right now. I smiled at Doris. "I'm a little tired, so I'll be in my room.""Go, go. I'll get the housekeeper to make something nutritious for you," Doris replied. Jethro came home a lot earlier than usual. He had a large bouquet of roses with him too. I couldn’t recall when was the last time he gave me flowers."Is thi

Mason chuckled dryly. "Well, well. Working hard, huh? You’re expecting again."I felt guilty for having asked him for help now. It was as if I was putting salt on his wound. I avoided his gaze and decided to go around him. "Umm, if it inconveniences you, then I wouldn't mind joining the line. See ya."He frowned and stepped in my way. He smiled. "I've already made the arrangements, Serena. Just go."Despite his smile, I could tell Mason was simply hiding his feelings. I sighed. I didn't want to hurt him, but he never seemed to change. He kept doing things for me, and I was simultaneously moved and frustrated by his loyalty. But I could only ever love Jethro. I could never reciprocate Mason’s feelings. I silently followed him into the consultation room. A while later, the doctor confirmed that I was pregnant. I felt as though I had soared to the sky, and I wondered how Jethro would feel about this. Mason was by my side the entire time, so naturally, he was privy to the news. I fa

I woke up the next morning feeling like a well-wrung-out-rag. I had gotten home late, and Jethro kept me up till the wee hours of the morning. I had only fallen asleep just before dawn.Restless, I turned to look at Jethro who was deep asleep and felt slightly resentful. He had worn me out last night, yet here he was, sleeping peacefully without a care. I sat up and gently nudged him awake. Even though he had exhausted me, he was the one who had truly exerted himself, so he was certainly even more tired than I was.Jethro opened his eyes groggily, asking sleepily. "What’s wrong?""Do you even have to ask?" I retorted."Did I not satisfy you last night? Well, are you up for more then?" he teased.I stared at him, dumbfounded. Why was he always thinking such thoughts? When had I ever hinted that I wanted another round?Irritated, I shot him a glance and decided to get out of bed to wash up. While I brushed my teeth, I suddenly felt a wave of nausea. I found this strange. I hadn't e
Easy, Mr. Bigshot Chapter 582 In His Warm Care
Jethro’s anger ebbed away upon hearing my words, though his face continued to carry a trace of annoyance."That's more like it. Remember, if this happens again, you’re never leaving the house ever again," he warned.I wasn't upset that he was angry. I understood it was because he cared about me. I would’ve felt the same if the roles were reversed. After all, worry was a byproduct of care."Were you waiting up for me?" I asked, realizing Jethro was still up in the living room though it was well past two in the morning."What else would I be doing?" he replied in a mix of irritation and relief."Geez, I've already apologized. Let's not dwell on this," I responded playfully, trying to defuse the tension. "Let's head to bed. I'm exhausted," I suggested, more than ready to end the evening. Taking his hand, I led us toward the bedroom.Sensing my weariness, Jethro followed without further comment. After a soothing shower, I felt much better despite the physical exhaustion. My mood, how
Easy, Mr. Bigshot Chapter 581 Threatening Jolene
"You just implied that it wouldn’t matter if you faced such trauma again. If that's what you think, I might as well help it happen!" I said to Jolene, purposefully using harsh words to instill fear in her. My goal was to shock her into realizing the gravity of her actions. My real concern was for Evelyn—Jolene’s recklessness was causing Evelyn undue stress."Let me go, Serena! You’re insane!" Jolene protested, but I continued to tug at her, undeterred by her panic and anger. I wanted to teach her a lesson for her lack of empathy and respect."I'm the crazy one? It seems like you’re the one who has lost your mind, Jolene! Can’t you see what you’re doing to your mom? If you can’t handle life's challenges, then stop causing her pain!" Driven by frustration, I dragged her outside.Jolene then managed to break free, retreating and glaring at me fearfully. "Get the hell away from me! I don't wanna see you!" she yelled, visibly shaken.Seeing her sufficiently alarmed, I stopped, fixing he

"Seeing Jojo like this is breaking my heart.” Evelyn held my hand, her face marked by deep sorrow."I know you're upset, but don't worry, I'll talk some sense into her." Seeing Evelyn's distress, I felt uneasy. Though I was reluctant to interfere in Jolene's life, I couldn't ignore Evelyn's pain.I waited at Evelyn's house until late at night before Jolene finally returned. It was almost one in the morning, and my irritation surged upon seeing her. Jolene, reeking of alcohol, was a far cry from her former self. Her transformation was stark. Dressed provocatively and caked in heavy makeup, she resembled a hooker more than a member of a respectable family.I marched over to her "Jolene," I called out, unable to hide my annoyance.She stopped and faced me. She asked in a hostile tone, "What are you doing here at this hour?""Waiting for you." I faced her with a frosty demeanor."Waiting for me? I'm tired and have no interest in talking to you." Impatiently, Jolene turned to head ups
Easy, Mr. Bigshot Chapter 579 Lianna's Departure
Lianna stared at Jethro tearfully, her voice laden with pain. "But I still love you. You once promised to love me forever. Why has that promise changed?""I might still harbor those feelings if we hadn't parted ways. But time changes emotions, and what we had can't be rekindled," Jethro replied, his tone reflecting a seriousness I hadn't seen in him before."Don't leave me, Jethro, please. I know I was wrong to leave you for money. Give me another chance. I can bring back the love we once had,” Lianna pleaded, clutching at Jethro's arm.Standing by the sidelines, I watched the scene expressionlessly. I wasn't worried because I knew Jethro would never return to her. His heart belonged to me now.Jethro withdrew his arm, and his gaze toward Lianna was cold and distant. "I’ve said all there is to say. Our relationship ends here. From now on, please stay out of my life. Stop bothering me," he stated firmly, then took my hand and walked out of the room, leaving Lianna behind.In the ca
Easy, Mr. Bigshot Chapter 578 The Result of the Paternity Test
The blood test was swiftly completed, but we had to wait three days for the paternity test results. Mason assured us he would notify us as soon as they were out.As Jethro and I were leaving the hospital, Lianna suddenly called out, "Jethro!” Her face was pale and her eyes filled with sadness."What else do you want?" Jethro asked in a detached tone.Lianna glanced at me, then continued, "I just want to ask you one thing. If Robin is your son, will you acknowledge him? Have you ever considered accepting us back into your life?""If he's my child, I'll take responsibility. But if not, please stay out of my life forever."Jethro was extremely serious as he spoke, his gaze toward Lianna emotionless. Her tears flowed as she listened to him, her expression becoming even more pained."Fine. If he isn’t your child, I’ll leave with him. But I’m certain he’s your child because you're the only man I've ever been with!" After saying this emotionally charged statement, Lianna sped off.Watc
Easy, Mr. Bigshot Chapter 577 Doing the Paternity Test
"Are you being completely honest, Rina? You're not covering for this brat, are you? If he has an illegitimate child, I'll break his legs!" Raymond's gaze shifted to me, his disbelief apparent.I was taken aback by Raymond's words but also felt a sense of solidarity. It was clear he was supporting me."It’s the truth, Grandpa. I guarantee that the child Lianna has isn’t Jethro's. If you doubt him, surely you’ll believe me, right? If that boy were Jethro’s, would I be calmly discussing this with you now?" I said."Then we'll wait for the test results.” Seemingly somewhat convinced by my assurance, he gave Jethro a cold snort and looked away.Jethro frowned, clearly unhappy, but he remained silent. Witnessing the family's united front against him was oddly gratifying for me. Back in our bedroom, I felt pretty upbeat and couldn’t help humming a tune. Though Lianna's child wasn’t Jethro's, the recent tensions had weighed on me heavily. Seeing the family rally around me felt like a small
