Ring, ring, ring…

Duncan’s phone rang.

It was Zachary who called.

Duncan immediately answered it.

“Josh is inviting us to dinner tonight.”

Duncan beat Zachary to it as he assumed Zachary was going to ask if he was free.

The three of them were the closest of friends. Since Josh was no longer a bachelor and invited them to dinner, Duncan would go even if he was busy.

“I know, he sent me a message long ago.”

Zachary held his phone in one hand and a cup of coffee in the other. He called Duncan while he was drinking coffee.

“My wife saw through you.”

“Saw through me?”

Duncan did not get it at first.

He soon understood and responded, “She saw through me? That’s good. I was wondering how I can say it.”

Initially, Duncan wanted to act on his feelings after realizing them.

It was Zachary who persuaded him to hold back.

Zachary told Duncan that it was inappropriate to tell Liberty about his feelings at the moment because she was injured and still weak. He asked Dunca

    Zachary went back to work. His wife would pick him up from the office in the afternoon, and they would go and celebrate Josh and Jasmine’s marriage together. Zachary could dive right back into his work, but Duncan could not focus on his. Duncan’s mom asked him right after Zachary ended the call, “Duncan, what did Zachary tell you?” “Mom, do I need to tell you the content of my calls? You didn’t even take me seriously when I was a child. Now that I’m in my thirties, you’re here to control me. Don’t you think it’s too late?” Mrs. Lewis choked. “Mom, you’ve finished what you wanted to say. I have to get back to work.” Duncan wanted his mom to leave. Mrs. Lewis said after a moment of silence, “Since Josh is treating you to dinner tonight, take Lily with you and let her slowly integrate into your circle of friends.” “No!” Duncan directly refused. Mrs. Lewis asked, “Do you hate Lily that much? What about her that is inferior to Liberty? She’s better than Liberty—be it h

    If Old Mrs. Lewis were alive, she would not stop Duncan from pursuing Liberty. In Duncan’s words, his granny only wanted him to be happy. If he truly loved Liberty, his granny would definitely support him to pursue Liberty. “Ms. Harmon, you don’t have fantasies about me still, do you?” Lily responded, There’s no such thing. I now know what kind of person you are, Duncan. Since you don’t love me, why should I harbor fantasies about you? You’re not the only outstanding man in this world. “Why should I cling to you when you don’t belong to me? Wouldn’t it be good for me to find someone else? I can also find more than one man. “Alright, then I’ll stop acting too. I’ll have dinner with Mrs. Lewis later and make things clear, then I’ll move out of your house and live in Wiltspoon Hotel. We might not end up as a couple, but we can still be friends.” Lily was well-intentioned. Even so, Duncan was also reasonable. It would be better for Lily to make things clear to Mrs. Lewis an

    “Thanks for your concern, Mr. Charles. My sister is doing much better now and is recovering quite well,” Serenity replied. “That’s good, that’s good.” Mr. Charles ate some of the vegetables in his bowl again. “Serenity, I’ll tell you something. Can you give me some advice and tell me if it’s reliable or not? I told Mrs. Charles, and she scolded me.” Serenity chuckled and said, “Mr. Charles, go ahead. What is it? I’ll listen to it and give you some advice.” “You know I can tell fortunes, right? But I didn’t learn it from a teacher and somehow learned from others to get into it. I also read some books and figured it out myself.” Mr. Charles stopped eating and said softly, “But I think I can now set up a fortune-telling stall by the road or in the park. I’ll just do it during my free time so I can get some extra money for my family, though I still have to tend to our grocery store. “It’s just that as our children and elders grow older, middle-aged people like us are under mo

    Serenity visited her sister in the hospital first. When she arrived at the hospital, Liberty and Sonny had finished their dinner. “Aunt Ser.” Sonny was delighted to see Serenity. He ran to her asking her to carry him. Serenity picked him up and saw her sister getting ready to wash the insulated lunch boxes. She quickly said, “Liberty, I’ll wash them.” “You don’t need to. I’m also bored now, so I’m just looking for things to do.” Otherwise, Liberty would have let Mrs. Lane wash the lunch boxes long ago. “You closed the bookstore pretty early today.” Serenity stood at the bathroom door with her nephew in her arms. While watching her sister wash the lunch boxes with hot water, she responded, “Jasmine is treating us to dinner. Sonny, you’re full from dinner already. I was going to take you to dinner.” Liberty chuckled and said, “I’m being raised like a pig now. I eat, sleep, and repeat every day. Moreover, the food brought by Sam every day is delicious.

    Everyone imagined Zachary coming to work with a baby in his arms. They could not help but shiver and did not dare imagine it! The senior managers who were talking to Serenity said with a smile, “Mrs. York, Mr. York is here. We’ll be leaving first.” They did not want to be third wheels. Serenity grinned and nodded. After the senior managers left, she walked over to the man and the kid with a smile. “Zachary, you have to hold him tight.” Some people did not hold their children tight when lifting or spinning them, causing them to fall on the ground. The consequences would be serious. Zachary stopped lifting and spinning Sonny in the air. He lowered Sonny and carried him instead as he responded with a smile, “Don’t worry, I’ll hold him tight. I won’t let him fall no matter what.“Sonny, am I good?” Sonny answered, “Uncle Zak, you’re good—very good.” The little guy thought, ‘As long as you stop calling me a third wheel, you’ll be even better.’ Sonny finished talking and

    “It’s still early, but we have to get ready nonetheless.” Zachary added, “You don’t need to worry about it and just need to work with the designer. The designer will create a wedding dress that suits your figure and temperament. You’ll definitely be the most beautiful bride when you put it on.” Serenity smiled and said, “I think I’ll still be your most beautiful bride even if I don’t wear a bespoke wedding dress.” She was confident about her appearance. Zachary grinned as well. “Yes, you’ve always been my prettiest bride. I just want to give you the best.” He also wanted to prepare his wedding gifts for her. His properties and what would be given by his family would be used as the bridewealth. Zachary and Serenity left the office building and walked together to Zachary’s Rolls-Royce. “You don’t need to follow us anymore,” Zachary said to the bodyguards. The bodyguards responded to him with respect. Only after Zachary started the car and drove out of York Corporation

    Everyone present knew Josh and Jasmine’s wedding date had been set. The wedding will be held at the end of this month, so they all teased Josh. Josh openly accepted everyone’s banters and blessings. “Except for Zachary, everyone here is a bachelor.” Josh filled his glass with wine and said to everyone with a smile, “Here’s a toast to all you bachelors. From today onward, I’m officially out of your ranks. You don’t need to invite me to any bachelor activity from now on. Enjoy getting high among yourselves.” Remy remarked with a smile, “I envy you, Mr. Bucham.” On the other hand, Duncan noted, “From today onward, Josh will be henpecked like Zachary.” Zachary responded in a deep voice, “I can be henpecked, but you don’t have the chance to even if you want to.” Duncan replied to him, “Zachary… that’s hurtful. Serenity, you need to control him.” Serenity took some food for her nephew. Sonny had eaten dinner and did not want to eat again, but there were some sides that he lik

    Josh asked with concern, “Julian, why are you not a normal person?” Julian pursed his lips and answered, “I’m quite close to all of you, and Jasmine and Serenity are experienced in relationships, so I’m not afraid of being laughed at by you. I don’t react to women.” Everyone was lost for words. Serenity and Jasmine were best friends indeed. The shrimps they picked up fell back into their plate at the same time. “Julian, y-you’re making an excuse, right? We won’t rush you to get married, so you don’t need to tell us that and scare me.” Josh thought of his uncle’s hopeful gaze and his aunt’s expectant look. He felt that he had asked something he should not have. His cousin’s words were shocking. It scared him. “Julian, what about men…?” Remy asked probingly. He and Julian were sitting next to each other. Remy had moved his hips discreetly. He was ready to switch seats if Julian said that he was into men. However, who was Julian? Remy’s petty action could not escape

    “She lost the child when she fell on her own. That was our family’s flesh and blood, too!”Since Sonny did not live with the Browns, and despite her many objections, Olivia did not voice her criticisms toward Jessica when she was pregnant, out of consideration that Jessica was carrying the Brown family’s child.It was Jessica’s bad luck that she fell and lost the child, which made Olivia lose a grandson. If she had just one more grandson, she would not be waiting so eagerly for Sonny to return. It was all karmic retribution! “Mom, that's all in the past. I'm doing fine now. If the child wasn't meant to be, then it wasn't meant to be. They just didn't want to come into our lives. Anyway, Jessica is still my wife. I should go and see her. If I hadn’t corrupted her, she wouldn’t have ended up like this. It’s my fault, I ruined her.”When Jessica first became his secretary, she was still innocent and never thought of seducing him. It was he who fell for Jessica, and it was also he wh

    Unfortunately, their regret and realization came too late. “I heard from Sonny that you and Mr. Lewis are getting married soon. When will the marriage be?”Olivia tried to make herself sound calmer. “We’ll be heading to the City Hall to complete the procedures later.”Olivia went silent. After some time, she said, “Oh, today? Congratulations, Liberty. I wish you both a happy marriage.”“Thank you.”Olivia initially had a lot of things to say. However, upon discovering Liberty and Duncan were getting their marriage license that day, the words got stuck in her throat. Saying anything was meaningless.Soon, Olivia hung up. Once the call ended, Luke, who had been sitting beside his wife, asked, “How did it go? Did Liberty agree to Sonny staying with us for a few days?”Olivia was still stunned and did not immediately reply to her husband’s question. At that moment, Hank came out of his room in his pajamas. When he saw his parents sitting on the sofa, he yawned and asked, “Wha

    Serenity asked, “Duncan has no comments about it, right?”“No. He said that Hank would always be Sonny’s biological father. Sonny’s surname won’t be changed to Lewis as well. He’ll remain a Brown. That’s part of Hank’s and my divorce agreement.”Since Liberty had signed the agreement, she would keep her promise. No matter Sonny’s surname, the fact that he was a member of the Brown family would not change. If so, there was no point in changing his surname. “Duncan is so easygoing.”At that moment, Liberty’s phone rang.It was Olivia. When Liberty recognized her voice through the phone, she whispered to Serenity, “Speak of the devil. Olivia is calling me.”“What did you say, Liberty?”Olivia heard Liberty whispering but could not hear her clearly. She asked Liberty to repeat herself.“I was talking to my sister, Olivia. Why did you call?”It was still early in the morning. “You’re back from Jensburg, right, Liberty?”“Yes.”“That was what I heard. Look. The year is almo

    “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
