“They are bound to come and beg us for help,” Zachary predicted. Serenity chuckled sarcastically. Zachary was like a brick wall. What could he do if his cousins came to him for help? Zachary was probably only good for taunts and horrible ideas. “You don’t believe me, babe.” “Not at all.” Zachary stared into her eyes and said, “We’ll just have to wait and see. They’ll come to me as the senior male figure in the family when they’re in trouble. Even if I can’t do anything to help, I can lend an ear.” Since Zachary’s cousins had the utmost respect and trust in Zachary, Serenity had confidence in Zachary’s prediction. “Did Ms. Carrie get into a disagreement with you?” Serenity mentioned running into Carrie and the feud between the sisters, but there was nothing further about what happened between Serenity and Carrie. Sure, Carrie was cocky, but Serenity would always put Carrie in her place. Since he asked, Serenity came clean to Zachary about Carrie’s arrogant behavior.

Despite Zachary’s yearning for Serenity to stay, Serenity still left the office in the end and went back to watch her shop. By the time of her return, the shop was still bustling with students. Since Josh had not arrived, Serenity and Jasmine dove right into work. The crowd of students was slowly dispersing when Josh made it to the shop. By then, Serenity could handle the work all on her own. Josh would always drop in with flowers for Jasmine. Jasmine would also prepare little gifts for him. The couple looked out for one another and always had each other’s best interests at heart. They were a pair made in heaven. “Seren, we’re leaving for our date now.” Jasmine held her purse and bouquet given by Josh before announcing her leave to Serenity with a smile. Once Serenity acknowledged her, Jasmine took off with Josh. Serenity was kept occupied for a while until the last swarm of students left. She then went into the kitchen to heat her food up and enjoyed her dinner behind

Mr. Charles replied, “That’s true… It’s a good thing I didn’t tell my wife.” “Mrs. Charles doesn’t give you much allowance, but she doesn’t let you pay for the other stuff. You don’t have to worry about expenses for your parents and parents-in-law, social favors, and expenses for raising your children. You are lucky, Mr. Charles. “It’s not easy to manage money.” While munching, Mr. Charles remarked, “I agree, and that’s why I left the finances to my wife since she’s good at it. I used to be the one to take care of the finances, but our savings never made it past twenty thousand dollars by the end of the year despite our business doing well. Since my wife took over, we have saved close to a hundred thousand dollars a year.“I’m happy with the load off my shoulders and the surplus of money in the family account. My wife is a very fair person. She won’t favor her own family. She gives equal amounts to my parents and her parents. My parents cannot be happier with their daughter-in-l

“Alright. We got it.” These thugs had no idea who Serenity was. Carrie was not that dumb to let them in on it. No amount of money could buy these people to do her dirty work if Carrie let out that Serenity was Mrs. York. “Delete my number when you get the final payment. I can guarantee your safety so long as you do as I say.“Don’t blame me for what’s to come if I catch you blabbering about it.” “Don’t worry, Ms. Jones. We won’t breathe a word to anyone. We’re in this together since you pay us to do the job.” Truth be told, Carrie did not even tell the thugs her real family name.She intended to dump the SIM card after the deed was done and she was through with contacting the thugs. The number was not registered to her name anyway. Carrie hung up the call. Thinking that Serenity was about to get it, she burst out laughing. Serenity should have minded her own business instead of helping Camryn. It was time Serenity got a taste of her own medicine. Knock, knock.Pulling

No one ever spoke the truth behind York Corporation’s attack on Lowe Enterprise, and now the two big companies had resumed their partnership. The people on the outside assumed someone from Lowe Enterprise made a misstep that led to York Corporation’s termination of their partnership. Mr. Lowe had repeatedly sought Mr. York for negotiation before finally reconciling their business relations. “But I can’t stand the cockiness of the country bumpkin! She has no right to give me an attitude. She’s nothing once Mr. York is bored with her.” Carrie pursed her lips and remarked, “I can’t move past this without getting even with her. Mom, I hired eight thugs to go after her. They’re stalking Serenity and waiting until they get to a blind spot on the road to stop her car and beat her up.” With color draining from her face, Mrs. Newman anxiously uttered, “Where did you find these people? Do you have everything in order? Don’t leave any traces that can lead back to you. Also, I heard the

Color washed off the thug’s face. “Are you talking about Mr. York from the wealthiest family in Wiltspoon?” “Oh, it turns out my husband is pretty famous. Even a hooligan knows his name.” The few thugs got onto their hands and feet right away as they wailed, screamed, and pounded their fists on the ground. They chewed Ms. Jones out. No wonder the woman paid a lot to hire a group of men to go against a single young woman. She was the lady of the York household. Mrs. York had been the talk of the town lately. Even the thugs had caught wind of the woman. How did they end up in the hands of Mrs. York? Ms. Jones sure put them in a spot. Noah would call them unlucky too if he knew about this.“Have mercy on us, Mrs. York. We didn’t know who you were and trashed your car. We can make it up to you with another car. Please look upon yourself to forgive us.” “I’ll talk! I’ll tell you who told us to smash your car. It’s Ms. Jones. Her phone number is XXXXXXXXX. She gave us a lot

The thug chose to listen to Serenity and gave Carrie a call. Serenity told the bodyguards to prop him up for the call. The thug would be panting for air while prostrating and talking at the same time. Carrie was urged by her mother to call the thugs when the call came in. She happily told her mother, “They’re calling, Mom! They’re calling! I bet they finished the job.” She eagerly took the call. “Ms. Jones, we trashed the woman’s car and beat her up. She’s knocked out cold but still breathing. She’s not dead. Hurry up and make the final payment. We want to leave Wiltspoon now.” “It’s good that you didn’t kill her. Snap a photo. I need to be sure that you finished the task before I can pay you.” “We really beat her up real bad. We left the scene immediately since she was bleeding. How could we possibly have stayed for a photo? Hurry up and pay up. We need to run away.” “Are you sure you hit the right woman?” Carrie was not scared at all when she heard Serenity was mangled,

“I’m fine, Zachary. My car was smashed. That’s all.” The thugs were bashing her car by the time Serenity got out. She and the two bodyguards quickly subdued the perpetrators, but it was too late for the car. Zachary glanced at the smashed car and remarked, “All that matters is that you’re safe. We can always replace the car.” “But you gave me this car.” “I gave you one on Valentine’s Day too. You can drive that and send this one for repairs.” Serenity replied, “I prefer the car brand I have right now.” It was discreet. Zachary said, “I’ll take you to get a new car of the same brand tomorrow.” She had a thing against showing off and parading her riches as the wife of the richest man. Zachary was happy to meet her standard and lifestyle. He would do anything to please her so long as he was in the picture. “Did you manage to get who is behind this?” Zachary’s question was meant for his bodyguards. “It’s Carrie,” Serenity answered. Since everybody here had not met C

Isabella’s bodyguard had only called out to her, not daring to touch her, so she had not woken up. However, when Austin gently patted her face and called her, she woke up almost immediately. When she opened her eyes and saw Austin’s handsome face, Isabella was momentarily dazed, thinking she was dreaming about him.She had actually dreamed about Austin. Had she developed feelings for him? If she had not, why would she dream about him? In all her life, this was the first time she had dreamed about a man. Isabella wanted to touch Austin’s face, but as she raised her hand, she realized she was not dreaming.Austin was real. She could smell the fresh scent on him because they were so close.He had showered.Isabella quietly lowered her hand, hoping Austin had not noticed her earlier intention, lest he misunderstood.“Ms. Isabella,” Austin’s warm and pleasant voice reached her ears, making her want to close her eyes and go back to sleep. With him around, she felt safe and secure.

Hunter had neither money nor power. What could he possibly use to save his sons?“Dad, go home. When the trial starts, we’ll send someone to pick you up so you can attend and observe.”Hunter stood up angrily and stormed off.After he left, Ellie asked Ava, “Are we really not going to do anything? My child is still young. Having a father in prison will always be a stain on their life.”“What can we do? Even if we wanted to save them, we don’t have the means. We know what Caroline is like. She’s not going to let this go lightly this time,” Ava replied. “Anyway, think about last year, when they were caught cheating. How did they treat us then?”Remembering the events from last year, Ellie said, “Let them serve a few years in prison, then. Ava, Caroline is in the hospital. Should we go visit her?”“We should. Let’s go tomorrow. We’ll call Emma and visit Caroline together. The Fisher family is full of terrible people, but Caroline still has some conscience. She’s always been kind t

Hunter was momentarily speechless. He did not have much money. When Belinda was alive, he never had more than five hundred dollars on him. After his children grew up, he secretly asked them for money. During that time, he had money to spend freely, living a lavish life outside.However, all that money had been spent. He had no savings, mainly because he was used to spending extravagantly.He had been unable to save money. He did not own any shops or properties either; Belinda had kept him on a tight leash.The house in their hometown had been built with Belinda’s money, but it was not under his name. It was under his three sons’ names.After Belinda’s death, his sons supported him. Each son gave him over a hundred thousand dollars a month for living expenses.Combined, that was several hundred thousand dollars a month, allowing him to live comfortably in Ashford. He had managed to save a little, but not much, just over a million dollars in total. Hiring the best lawyers for h

Despite this, lying in bed and enduring the pain, Caroline could not help but start to cry, feeling deeply wronged.When Darren came in and saw her crying, he walked over, sat on the edge of the bed, and gently wiped her tears with a tissue.“They’re not worth your tears,” he said, his heart aching for her.Caroline sat up and buried herself in his arms. “Darren, you’re all I have now.”Darren held her tightly, his voice filled with tenderness. “I’ll always be by your side, no matter what happens, Ms. Caroline. Even if the sky falls, I’ll hold it up for you.“If you’re really hurting and need to cry, then cry. Let it all out.”It would also help her sever ties with the past and the family bonds that had caused her so much pain.Caroline did cry—a long, cathartic cry. It would be the last time. From now on, she and the Clarks would go their separate ways.Meanwhile, Hunter went to Justin’s house and called Jason’s wife, Ellie, over. He said to his two daughters-in-law, “By no

After a moment of silence, Hunter repeated the same line. “But you didn’t die, did you? You only got a little hurt, and it’s not even serious.”Caroline almost laughed in anger at this.Sure, she had not died. She had only been injured. Did that erase the fact that her brothers had tried to kill her, though?She retorted, “Dad, if I had tried to kill your three sons, but they didn’t die and only got a little hurt, would you say the same thing to them? Would you tell them it’s just a family dispute, ask them to forgive me, not to sue me, and not to send me to jail?”Hunter instinctively replied, "If you had the intent to kill, how could I let you continue down that path? Of course, I’d have to let you serve a few years in prison…“Carol, I’m old, really old. I only have the boys to rely on in my old age. Are you trying to leave me with no one to depend on in my later years?”Caroline said coldly, “I’ll provide for your living expenses. I’ll make sure you don’t starve. You can even

Darren did not let go even after being struck.Seeing Darren get hit, Caroline’s expression darkened. She coldly said to her father, “Dad, if you really want to kneel, go kneel at the hospital entrance and shout at the top of your lungs that your daughter is unfilial.“Tell everyone that your sons tried to kill your daughter, and your daughter refuses to forgive them, so you’re kneeling there to force her to forgive your sons.“Let’s see if I give in.”Hunter stopped struggling. After slapping Darren, he felt a pang of fear. He was afraid Caroline might retaliate by slapping him to avenge Darren. Fortunately, while Caroline was furious, she did not lay a hand on him.He began to cry. “Carol…” He wept bitterly.Darren released him, and Hunter sat on the sofa, sobbing, “Carol, I’m old. I have no income, my parents are long gone, and your mother is no longer here. I only have your three brothers to rely on.“If you send all three of them to prison, what will happen to me? Who w

Caroline hummed. “I do plan to visit Wiltspoon to see her sometime soon. I just don’t know if I’ll be kicked out when I get there.”“And I should visit Mr. Foster too. How is he, by the way?" Patrick was the longest-living person she had ever met. Back when she lived with her adoptive family in the countryside, the oldest people in town usually lived into their eighties, and few made it to ninety. Patrick was nearly a hundred years old. What was more, he could walk without support and even travel long distances with his old friends.Liberty replied, “He’s doing quite well. Aunt Audrey accompanies him on walks every day. When they don’t go out, he sits by the cradle and watches baby Elias for hours on end.”The bond between generations was strong. When Patrick looked at Clive’s son, Elias, he felt like he was looking at his great-grandson. As Tiara’s great-grandson, Elias was naturally like his own great-grandson, too.“Dr. Carden comes by periodically to check on him and adjus

Liberty had already called Audrey to inform her about what had happened and also mentioned it to Serenity.Knowing the Clark brothers had all been captured, Serenity felt thoroughly relieved and stopped worrying that her sister would run into trouble in Jensburg.She told Zachary that Caroline never let people down.Zachary did not comment.Caroline’s fever had completely subsided, but her coughing had worsened. The doctor had changed her prescription, but the effects were not immediate.When Liberty entered, Caroline was out of bed and walking around, supported by Darren.“Caroline, why are you out of bed?”Liberty scolded her, “Get back in bed and lie down. You’re injured. If you don’t rest properly and keep moving around, you’ll aggravate your wounds, and you’ll regret it.”She did not blame Darren, though. She knew Caroline always came first to him. He always followed her lead and was unable to influence her decisions.“I’ve been lying down all day. My back is sore, and I’m

The housekeeper replied, “Yes, sir.”They did not have much work in the first place, so they did not need to slack off. Once they were done with their work, they had tons of time to entertain themselves.Hunter rushed out the door with his car keys. Despite being over seventy years old, his driving skills were still quite good. Not needing to hire a driver, he drove himself straight to Jensburg.Upon arriving at the city, Hunter did not immediately go looking for Caroline. He was unaware that she had been injured.Instead, he went to meet his old friends to ask them to help him find out if anything had happened in relation to the Fisher family last night.After he finished speaking, one of his friends said, “We were about to ask you the same thing. Your three sons attacked your daughter with knives and even kidnapped her, intending to chop her up and feed her to the fish.“Luckily, that Mr. Fletcher, who works for your daughter, arrived with the police and rescued her, but she wa
