“It’s a personal choice to take up self-defense if you're an ordinary person, but now… Sonny should learn to fight and protect himself.”

Zachary had always held a torch for Sonny. He believed Sonny had a lot of potential and thought about taking the boy under his wing when he was older.

Now, Zachary was merely carrying the plan out ahead of schedule.

“That’s true. Alright, we’ll go with your idea. Thank you, babe.”

For Zachary to help Sonny tap into his potential and creativity, Serenity was happy for her nephew and thanked Zachary for it.

Zachary carried Sonny with one hand and dabbed on Serenity’s nose with his free hand before uttering, “You always call me Zachary, but suddenly I’m “babe” when I talk about getting Sonny a coach. Does Sonny hold a bigger space in your heart than I do?”

Serenity replied with a smile, “You both hold equal spaces. No, you take up a bigger space in my heart.”

Sonny was only a kid, but Zachary was an adult. Of course, Zachary took up more

    The pair must have returned from a shopping trip. Lily held Mrs. Lewis’s arm while carrying a few shopping bags herself. “Are you heading out, Duncan?” Running into her son, Mrs. Lewis asked. “Mom. Ms. Harmon.” Duncan said hello before adding. “I have an emergency, Mom. Sorry, I can’t attend to you and Ms. Harmon. You can either wait in my office or go home for now?” “What’s the emergency?” Mrs. Lewis asked with concern. “It’s an emergency.” Duncan may be dense, but he was not going to tell his mother that he was ditching work to check up on Sonny. He was afraid Mom might get the wrong idea about him and Liberty. A lot of people took it the wrong way and believed Duncan had a thing for Liberty. Nobody believed Duncan when he said he took a shine to Sonny. People thought he was trying to earn Sonny’s regard to become his stepdad. “Is it work-related?” Mrs. Lewis asked. Duncan lied, “Yes, Mom. I got to go.” “Alright. Go on then. Come home for dinner. Lily bough

    “I’ve been busy with my wedding and will be taking off for my honeymoon. Mr. Lewis can’t go without a secretary.” The secretary gave an air-tight answer. Lily had nothing to say. Duncan had no idea his mother and Lily would interrogate the secretary in his absence. It was a good thing this secretary gave great answers that did not raise his mother’s suspicion. Mrs. Lewis and Lily did not follow the news about the incident at the zoo because it was unrelated to them. Knowing that Sonny was at Brynfield, Duncan made haste there. Zachary and Clive were no longer there by the time Duncan arrived at Brynfield. Only the ladies were at home. Elisa was still there. Duncan gave Liberty a call. With Liberty taking his call, he asked, “Are you and Sonny still at your sister’s place, Liberty?” “Yeah, Seren said she’ll drive us home after dinner. What’s the matter, Mr. Lewis?” “I heard about what happened today.” Duncan uttered, “It was on the news. I asked Zachary, and he t

    “Ahem…” Grandma May cleared her throat. When Duncan looked at her, she reminded him, “Duncan, Sonny wasn’t scared by the robbers but by you. Look at how he’s struggling to get off you to the ground.” “Dunc, let go of me,” Sonny asked again. The little guy’s small face was tense. It was obvious that he was mad. Dunc was too strong, hence Sonny could not break free from his embrace. Duncan immediately put Sonny down and squatted as well. He grabbed Sonny’s shoulders instead and said gently, “Sonny, as long as you’re okay, as long as you’re okay.” Sonny looked at Duncan with his big twinkling eyes. Dunc treated him quite well. Sonny could sense Dunc’s sincerity toward him. Dunc was not teasing him and really liked him. Sonny lifted his small hand and placed it on the scar on Duncan’s face. He lightly touched it and then retracted his hand as if he was afraid. Seeing as Duncan was not in pain, Sonny reached out his little hand again to touch the scar. “Dunc, does it h

    Duncan sat on the sofa by himself and asked about what happened. “It feels like their goal was to abduct Sonny.” Duncan’s intuition was the same as Serenity’s and Zachary’s. “Liberty, do you remember what they look like? If you can draw composites of them, I can have someone find them.” Duncan was no longer a part of the underworld, but his legend remained. If he needed help from those people, they would do anything they could to help him as they used to in the past. “They were wearing black masks and sunglasses, so I couldn’t see their appearances. I only know that they’re tall and strong. They’re not like ordinary thugs and are more like bodyguards.” Zachary always had a bunch of bodyguards with him, so Liberty was used to seeing them. They were all tall and powerful, so she felt that the thugs were closer to bodyguards. Duncan’s eyes darkened. He did not comment on what Liberty said and only asked for more details. Soon, it was time to eat. At this time, his mother c

    “You said you’d be back for dinner tonight. Look at the time now. Are you still not coming home?” Mrs. Lewis urged her son, “Hurry up and come home. Lily cooked you some of her best dishes. I tasted them, and they’re delicious. They’re on par with dishes by a five-star hotel chef.” “Mom, I’m not going back for dinner. I’m not done with things yet. You and Ms. Harmon can dine together. Mom, Msr. Harmon is a guest in our house, so don’t make her cook. That’s poor hospitality.” Mrs. Lewis frowned. “You’re not done with things yet? Even if that’s the case, you still have to eat. It’s dark now, so come home to eat first. You can continue to work after dinner.” “Mom, I’ve eaten. I ate outside.” Mrs. Lewis responded, “Lily made a lot of food…” “You’re blessed with delicious food.” Mrs. Lewis choked. She was almost pissed off by her son. Mrs. Lewis tried so hard to create opportunities for her son, but he either avoided them or found excuses to turn them down. Lily was outs

    In any case, Duncan’s future wife had to be well-matched with him in terms of their families’ social status. Mrs. Lewis remarked, “Lily is still the most suitable one, but that brat isn’t giving her a chance at all. If he spends some time with her, they might end up being together. I’m going to York Corporation tomorrow.” Mr. Lewis asked her, “Why are you going there?” “Duncan, Zachary, and Josh are a trio. They’re the closest friends. Zachary and Josh are both taken and have tasted the sweetness of love. I’ll ask them to do the thinking for Duncan and get them to persuade him to give it a shot with Lily. “He might not listen to his parents, but he’ll listen to his good friends. He’s even staying at Zachary’s place now. Dear, send me Zachary’s phone number. I’ll call him later and not wait until tomorrow.” Mrs. Lewis thought about asking Zachary and Josh for help. “Zachary’s bad at talking and is worse than your son. Call Josh instead. Josh knows how to talk, so he’ll be mo

    After Zachary closed the door, Serenity yawned and went back to bed. She lay down and closed her eyes to rest. She would wait for Zachary. She wanted to know how the investigation had been going with him, Clive, and Josh. There was also Duncan. Duncan must have gone to find Zachary after he left Brynfield. Zachary came out of the bathroom after some time. Serenity heard his footsteps and opened her eyes. She saw that he was half-naked and that his hair was still wet with water dripping down. She sat up abruptly and rolled off the bed to fetch a clean towel. She sat the man, who did not dry his hair, in front of the dresser. Following that, she helped dry his hair like a mother and said, “Why did you wash your hair so late at night? It’s fine if you wash it, but you didn’t even dry it with a towel. Men’s hair is only that long, so it’ll dry in no time if you use a dry towel. “Even so, you’re lazy to dry it. Look at how wet the floor is now.” Zachary enjoyed his wife’s

    There were too many people in the zoo, so it was easy to create a disturbance and take the opportunity to kidnap a child. On the other hand, everywhere was being monitored in the busy downtown. It would not be easy for the other party to make a move, and they would not dare to act rashly. Zachary guessed that the other party would at least wait for a few months before acting again. Serenity said after some thought, “You have a point. In that case, I’ll treat the zoo incident as an accident and carry on with my normal life. I’ll slowly lure the snake out of its hole.” Zachary kissed her forehead appreciatively. “My wife is getting smarter.” “Was I dumb before?” “No, you’ve always been smart. I like how smart you look.” He was trying hard to survive. “I think I was too dumb to be fooled by you.” Zachary quickly stopped Serenity from talking further. After a kiss, he gently touched her lips and said in a soft voice, “Honey, go to sleep. It’s late.” “Good night.” A

    “He doesn’t even want kids and said having Sonny was enough.”Duncan did not care about blood relations. Liberty believed him. He only cared about her. If Liberty had not had to manage the Fisher family, she probably would have taken more time to consider whether she wanted a second child. However, Duncan's love for her ran deep. She decided to try for another child so that he could have a child of his own. Liberty did not want to be selfish. She could not prioritize only herself and Sonny. She had to be considerate of Duncan as well. “By the way, there’s something that I need your help with.”Serenity said, “Oh you, don’t sound like a stranger. We’re sisters. I’m ready to help with whatever you need.”“I have to go to Jensburg next year. I think I’ll leave Sonny here in Wiltspoon for his studies. I’ll ask for Sonny’s opinion again once my situation in Jensburg is stable. If he wants to move to Jensburg to live with me, I'll bring him over.“If he says no, I’ll need y

    “Morning, Liberty. The housekeeper said you weren’t out yet, so I didn’t want to disturb you.”Serenity stood and smiled when she saw Liberty enter. “I woke up when you arrived.”Liberty whispered, “Sonny is still asleep. Let’s go downstairs. You can accompany me on a walk outside too.”“What time are you and Duncan meeting?”Serenity was worried that Liberty would be late. Liberty said, “We still have to wait until the City Hall opens. Duncan and I agreed to meet at nine. It’s still early.”The three adults exited the child’s bedroom and went downstairs. Zachary remained in the house while Liberty and Serenity went on a stroll in the garden. Liberty’s villa initially belonged to Zachary. Although he sold it to Liberty, it was also considered a gift. She was the one who insisted on paying and refused to accept it as a gift. Therefore, Zachary accepted some money from her so that she would take it. The villas Zachary owned were never small. They usually came with garden

    “As expected of a child’s skin. It’s so smooth,” said Serenity. “Catch me if you can, Isaac…”Sonny spoke in his sleep and even giggled. He dreamt of him and Isaac playing tag. When Isaac started running after him, he quickly turned to escape while laughing. He did not realize that he was dreaming. “I have two dads, Isaac…”Sonny spoke again.Serenity laughed and told Zachary, “Sonny must’ve had a blast yesterday. Even his sleep talking is related to playing.”She pinched Sonny’s face lightly. “You do have two dads, Sonny. They love you a lot, so you have double the love.”Serenity spoke gently, regardless of whether he could hear her. She bent over and left a soft kiss on his cheek. “That’s why you must be happy. I wish you a carefree life ahead.”She hoped he would grow up healthily and be worry-free. Sonny was in a deep sleep and did not reply to her. Liberty watched them from the door with an affectionate gaze. She felt content. Zachary and Serenity had a st

    The night went by peacefully. The next morning, Liberty could hear her gates opening when she stirred in her bed. Soon, she heard her housekeeper talking. “You’re early, Mrs. York.”“Mm. My sister is getting married today. I couldn’t go back to sleep after I woke up, so I decided to come over.”While Serenity could not help Liberty and Zachary out with anything, she was excited to the point she could not sleep. It took Zachary a lot of effort to persuade her to sleep. However, she woke up at dawn after having a dream about her parents. She could not go back to sleep afterward and insisted on going to her sister’s place. Zachary thought he could sleep in since he was on break, but his wife just could not fall asleep. There was no helping it. The doting husband accompanied his wife to her sister’s house early in the morning. The housekeeper smiled. “Ms. Hunt isn’t awake yet.”“It’s okay. I won’t wake my sister.”Serenity finally felt at ease when she was at Liberty’s ho

    After a pause, she said, “Let’s meet at nine in the morning. Seren and Zachary will come over to my place. They’ll be looking after Sonny for me. I’ll head out after they arrive. You can wait for me at the City Hall’s entrance.”“No. I want to go to the City Hall with you.”Duncan did not want to wait for her at the City Hall. He wanted to go together.“Bring Sonny along.“We’ll be a family of three from tomorrow onward. We should bring him along.”He would officially become Sonny’s father tomorrow. It did not matter that he was a stepfather. It was Duncan’s first time adoring a child that much, and he did not expect that he would later become that child’s father.After giving it some thought, Liberty said, “Okay. Let’s take Sonny with us.“By the way, Sonny won’t change his surname after we get married. That was Hank’s condition when we got divorced. Since I promised him, I’ll keep to my word.”Sonny would still be the grandson of the Browns. He would not become a Lewis.

    Although Sonny was backed by a few wealthy families and would be well-supported even if he was incompetent, they still hoped he would turn out to be an outstanding individual. That way, he could be independent and achieve his goals without much help. Duncan had not thought about Sonny’s education plan. However, he knew Liberty had high hopes for Sonny. Even Serenity had never neglected Sonny’s nurturing. Despite only being in preschool, Sonny had started various hobby classes. It was to build a solid foundation and develop his interest in certain hobbies while still young. The only time he could fully enjoy playing was during winter and summer vacations. Liberty and Serenity had similar philosophies when it came to children’s education. They believed children had to study hard and play hard. Liberty nodded and said, “Sonny can have all the fun he wants when he’s young. Once the situation in Jensburg is stable, he’ll have to study and live there.“I wonder if he’ll be willing

    Although Corey’s daughters-in-law were not her biological children, she would love them as if they were. After all, they had married into the family and gave birth to the family’s future generation. The jewelry she gave them would be passed down to her grandchildren anyway. Her daughters-in-law came from wealthy families themselves and had many assets to their names. They had more than enough jewelry. Nevertheless, they still happily accepted their mother-in-law’s gift and promised to pass it down to their future daughters-in-law.Of course, they would also gather sufficient wealth and jewelry to be given to their daughters. Anyway, the Lewises treated boys and girls equally in the family. There was no gender discrimination. However, Corey preferred having granddaughters. She had only given birth to four sons and no daughters. After her sons got married, their first children were all sons. She had been afraid that men would outnumber the women in the Lewis family, just like how it

    After Corey scolded Ezra, she looked toward Duncan and Liberty. She said gently, “When are you two planning to get your marriage license? Tomorrow?“The City Hall will be closed at the end of the year. It’s best to get the procedure done within these few days.”Getting their marriage license soon would also reassure Duncan. The wedding could be held later. Once they got their marriage license and became legitimate husband and wife, Duncan would no longer have to be alone. He and Liberty could love each other as a married couple. There was also a chance that Liberty might already be pregnant with Corey’s grandchild by the time the wedding was held. Corey wished Liberty could give birth to a child for Duncan. The gender did not matter so long as the baby was Duncan’s biological child. If Liberty truly did not want to get pregnant again, Sonny would probably take care of Duncan in his old age. Duncan had always treated Sonny well, and Sonny was a reasonable child. Sonny would no

    Liberty looked at him again. To be honest, she had not known that Duncan had already arranged for a tailor to custom-make a wedding dress for her. As for her size, well, Duncan probably knew.He had sharp eyes and could probably estimate her measurements just by looking at her, not to mention how many times he had hugged her. He could also have asked her sister for her clothing size and preference.As for her preference, he probably had not needed to ask. They had known each other for two years, and Duncan knew very well what she liked and did not like. Serenity had not mentioned anything about the dress to her, so it seemed like they were keeping it from her as a surprise.Duncan met her gaze and softly explained, “After you agreed to register our marriage before Christmas, I immediately contacted the fashion designer Zachary and Josh recommended me. I asked Serenity about your clothing size, and I also secretly took your measurements myself to make sure there wouldn’t be mistakes
