Chapter 1526

Author: Gu Lingfei
Zachary’s cell phone started ringing.

Before Zachary even looked at his phone, he told Josh, “It must be my wife that's calling. Maybe she wants to pick me up after work.”

Josh pouted. “Hey, I am doing pretty well myself. Heck, I even had my wedding before you. You don’t have to show off, I'm not provoked at all.”

With a wide grin on his face, Zachary replied, “I’m not showing off. That’s just how my wife and I get along every day.”

It became the daily routine for the couple that Zachary would pick up Serenity or the other way round.

The moment Zachary took out his phone and realized that it was Remy calling, his ever-handsome face twitched.

Zachary thought it was Serenity who called. He did not expect it to be Remy.

With eyes as sharp as a hawk, Josh saw that it was Remy’s name on Zachary’s screen.

Josh busted out laughing.

Zachary shot him a mean glare, and Josh turned away to continue his gleeful laughter.

Despite the humiliating circumstance, Zachary answered Remy’s call

    “The Yorks have so many men. Even if you and I aren’t around, they’ll be able to hold up. Besides, I’m just going to be away for a few days. York Corp is a big group with mature management. Even if we’re not available for a month, the company will be fine,” Zachary said to Josh. The mid-level and senior managers in the company were not raised for nothing. Josh breathed a sigh of relief and chuckled as he said, “As long as you’re not asking me to stay in the office to work my butt off for you.” Zachary said with amusement, “I’m not an exploiter. Look how nervous you are. I’ve never ordered you around, have I?” “No, no, I’ve always volunteered to be ordered about by you.” Zachary was lost for words. Josh chuckled and said, “I should be glad to have worked hard for you. After finding your happiness, you didn’t forget about me and matched Jasmine to me. We’re good friends and brothers.” “You're as sweet as ever with your words. No wonder Ms. Sox fell for you and agreed to mar

    Josh answered softly and whispered in Jasmine’s ear, “I came with Zachary. He knows he looks too cold and will scare your little customers away, so he’s standing guard in front of the store. He’s more useful than a surveillance camera.” Jasmine chuckled. Serenity heard the young couple’s conversation and knew her man was here too. She looked out and saw Zachary’s tall and robust body. Zachary and Josh came after work. It was past the busiest time in the store. The former stood in front of the store for a few minutes and then entered. “Seren, can we go now?” Zachary asked his beloved wife gently. Serenity looked at the time and replied to him, “Soon.” She then said to her best friend, “Jas, why don’t I leave first and you shut the door later before you leave?” Jasmine readily agreed to it. “Sure.” With that, Serenity went around the counter to go into the bathroom. She put on light makeup in the mirror before coming out of the bathroom. After picking up her bag, Se

    Josh laughed and asked Jasmine, “Isn’t it good to be a landlady? I remember you said you didn’t have a big dream and will be content with living as a landlady as your parents did.” “Being a landlady is too boring. All I do is collect rent every day,” Jasmine replied to him. “You can ask me to collect rent for you.” Jasmine laughed. “You’re a landlord yourself.” Back then, she did not want to help her parents collect rent every day, so she rented this place and opened a bookstore with Serenity to pass the time. It did not matter if they made money as long as she did not need to go around collecting rent. “The people from our hometown found things to do to pass the time. My aunt drives a Porsche to work now, which is better than her boss’s car. She’s a cleaner and gets about three grand a month, but she does a serious job. “Her boss said her car was too good, so she drove a BMW instead the next day. Her boss still thought that it was still too nice of a car, so she could on

    The table in the dining room was filled with Jasmine’s favorite dishes. “Sir, madam, enjoy your meal.” After Josh and Jasmine took their seats, the butler said respectfully and excused himself. He left the opportunity to take care of Jasmine for Josh. Josh had always taken great care of Jasmine, who was also a foodie. Even if they had dinner by themselves, they would enjoy their food very much. After the meal, Josh took Jasmine for a walk in the courtyard to get her familiarized with the environment. That night, the young couple stayed in the villa. In the following days, Josh picked up Jasmine after work every day and returned to their home. The happy days passed quickly. Another week was over in the blink of an eye. Josh began his marriage leave. After Liberty was discharged from the hospital, Zachary brought Serenity to Annenburg for a break and a vacation as he usually did in the past. Liberty still needed home rest after being discharged. Before flying to Ann

    Liberty saw Callum walking over. She immediately said, “Ms. Newman, I’m going to the bathroom.” Before Camryn could reply to her, she hurriedly slipped away to make room for Callum. Liberty knew Callum was pursuing Camryn, but Camryn was not willing to accept him and had avoided him for half a month. As a result, Serenity had to go to Spring Blossoms countless times. “Liberty, I want to go to the bathroom too. Wait for me.” Camryn found her white cane and wanted to go to the bathroom with Liberty but did not get any response. “Liberty?” “Liberty walked away.” Callum’s low voice was heard. Camryn subconsciously squeezed her white cane. She regained her normal state right away. “Mr. Callum.” She greeted Callum politely and apologized, “Excuse me.” Callum reached out to grab her wrist. “Camryn!” He called out in a low and hoarse voice. “How long are you going to avoid me?” Camryn withdrew her hand and answered calmly, “Mr. Callum, I’m not avoiding you. I’ve b

    Camryn was embarrassed. Callum took a few deep breaths and eased his tone as he said, “Hand me the end of your cane, and I’ll lead you there. We’ll take fewer detours so you won’t bump into other people.” There were too many people at the wedding dinner. Camryn could not see, so she could easily bump into others. “Mr. Cal—” “Call me Callum!” Camryn pursed her lips again and said, “Tell me the route. I can walk there by myself.” “I’ll count to three. If you don’t hand me the end of your cane, I’ll carry you there!” Camryn was speechless. She reached out the end of her cane to Callum to not anger him. With that, Callum grabbed the cane. Nonetheless, he slid his hand further to the middle to shorten the distance between him and Camryn. “Follow me,” Callum said in a low voice. He took Camryn to the bathroom. “I’ll wait for you at the door. If you don’t come out in half an hour, I’ll go in.” Camryn asked, “Aren’t you afraid of being embarrassed?” “You’re not af

    “I’ll count to three. If you can’t make a decision, I’ll carry you away.” Seeing that Camryn still refused to compromise, Callum threatened her again. He started counting. Camryn was worried that Callum would actually knock her out and carry her away. She quickly interrupted him when he counted to two and said, “Then please send me home. That said, you must’ve drunk a lot. Don’t drive after drinking.” Callum curled his lips into a smile and said, “I purposely stayed away from any alcohol so I could take you home.” He was the most irresponsible groomsman for once. The other groomsmen more or less had drinks on behalf of Josh. Callum was the only one who did not drink. Camryn had nothing more to say. Soon, a warm and thick hand held her hand. Camryn wanted to shake it off. “The hotel is full of people, and your cane can easily poke someone. This is good.” Callum did not give her the chance to shake him off. Instead, he took her cane away and held her hand as they wa

    Soon after, Callum and Camryn arrived at the Newmans’ villa. The villa was brightly lit, and several cars were parked in front as well as in the courtyard. There was even a van. People kept moving things from the van into the house. Callum stopped the car and asked Camryn, “Are you moving? Or are you moving things back from somewhere else?” “What?” Camryn had not gotten out of the car yet. The car door and windows were tightly shut, so she could not hear the movements in front of the villa. She was startled when she heard Callum’s questions. Callum understood when he saw her reaction. He said, “A few cars are parked in front of your house, and there’s also a van in the courtyard. People are moving things from the van into your house. They look like movers to me. Did you agree to let someone move into your house?” “No.” Camryn unfastened her seat belt. She took her cane and pushed the door open to get out. “If I’m not mistaken, my elder aunts are moving in.” Apart fr

    Since Carrie was approaching Spring Blossoms, she decided to drop by. It was a pity she could not wreck the store as she was heading there as Mrs. Longbottom.When she arrived, Camryn was not in the store. Only Louise and Leah were there. Carrie asked casually, “Where did your boss go?”“Our boss is very busy. Usually, we’re the ones looking after the store. She only comes by when she’s free. Are you looking for her, Mrs. Longbottom?”Louise and Leah recognized Mrs. Longbottom. “No. Your boss is always around whenever I’m here to buy flowers, so I’m just curious since she isn’t here today. Get me two jade plants. The ones I have aren’t growing well. I want to change them,” said Carrie. She really had jade plants at her villa and she was the one who bought them. In fact, they were growing well. It symbolized her having great luck with wealth.Indeed, she was doing well financially. Mr. Longbottom had never mistreated her in terms of living standards.Carrie wanted to get

    Tati kept trying to match her with Austin.As soon as Austin left, Tati came in. Isabella could tell, just by the timing, that it had to be related to Austin.If she had not known how loyal Austin was to her, Isabella might have suspected her cousin was being bribed by him.Tati smiled. “I happened to see Austin leaving when I came in. He was very polite to me and his smile was gentle, and the way he looked at me was respectful. But it’s completely different from how he looks at you, Isa.“I noticed it long ago. When he looks at you, there’s light in his eyes, there’s affection, and tenderness. He’s utterly devoted to you, or rather, he dotes on you.”Isabella was quiet.“Isa, the first time I saw Austin, I knew he was no ordinary person, and I thought you two made a great match. You know me, I don’t joke around about these things, but when I saw him, I just couldn’t help it.“I really think you two are perfect for each other. Before, we didn’t know his real identity, so you mig

    Tati hummed in agreement.After her cousin reviewed the documents, Tati said, “Isa, why don’t you try dating? Neither of us has a boyfriend, so outsiders are always thinking they can take control of us through marriage alliances.“You could just date. There’s no need to get married. Or you could even just pretend to date. Make them give up.”Isabella looked up at her cousin, amused. “What? That’s a crazy idea.“I haven’t been in a relationship until now because they all know I’m hard to deal with. They think I don’t even have feelings. If I start dating, they’ll realize I’m just like any other girl who dates and wants to get married. Then, they’ll get even more ideas.”Unless her boyfriend was someone so powerful that no one would dare to touch him. He would have to come from a family strong enough to protect the O'Connor family, and he would need to love only her and not be after her family’s money.Power, status, wealth, and good character were all essential.There were men

    Austin quickly left the CEO’s office. Just as he stepped out, he ran into Tati, who was looking for Isabella.“Ms. Tati,” Austin greeted politely.Tati nodded and waited for Austin to leave before she knocked on the office door and entered.“Austin came early today to cook for you,” Tati said, holding a folder in her hand and opening it as she walked toward Isabelle.She sat down at the desk, handed over the folder, and said, “Isa, this is urgent. Please take a look.”Isabella took the document, glancing through it as she replied, “He comes around this time every day, neither early nor late.”“That Longbottom fellow came by again?” Tati asked.It was only after Mr. Longbottom had directly asked to see Isabella that Tati found out the old lecher had come again.“Yes, but I didn’t meet him. He brought some gifts, claiming they were holiday presents for us. I had them sent back. He’s too ambitious, and he has bad intentions. We’re absolutely on guard against him. Why would we give

    Isabella turned her head to look at Austin.Austin stopped the massage and asked in a gentle voice, “Are you feeling any discomfort? I can work on it. I don't give people massages often, so I don’t have much experience. I'll keep giving you more massages as practice so I'll be able to serve you better.”“It's not that,” Isabella smiled. “It's actually very comfortable. It’s just that I really want to meet your grandmother every time you mention her.”In Isabella's mind, Austin's grandmother had already become something of a legendary figure.Austin thought to himself, ‘Nana’s already met you. You probably met her before, you just didn't know it was her.’His nana had surely spent a lot of time observing Isabella, getting to know her, and confirming that her character and abilities were suitable for him before choosing Isabella for him.“When you’re less busy, if you’re willing, you can come visit us in Wiltspoon. Lots of flowers bloom in spring, and there’s beautiful scenery ever

    When Isabella first took over the family business, many of her grandparents' and parents' friends and relatives openly tried to sabotage her. They played dirty tricks, schemed, and tried various ways to undermine her.They wanted to take advantage of her, and they also did not want her to take control of the family’s legacy. They tried to prevent her from establishing herself in the company, even going as far as to collaborate with outsiders to trap her.She had suffered countless setbacks, faced numerous conspiracies, and even experienced several so-called accidents, nearly losing her life. It was only after all this that she truly understood the treachery of human nature. From that point on, she learned to arm herself with cold indifference.Though she was taking over her own family’s business, it felt like she had to fight through a bloody battle to secure her place, as if she were a king striving to ascend the throne. It was exhausting and disheartening.However, she endured an

    Austin said, “He’s definitely here to discuss a potential partnership with your company.“He's just the acting head of the Longbottoms. He doesn’t truly control the family. If the real head returns, everything he’s worked for will go to someone else.“The downfall of Belinda Fisher probably gave him a wake-up call and he doesn’t want to end up like that.“He’s definitely seeking to cooperate with you regarding his personal business. He’s just using the Longbottoms’ name, since their influence in Windermere is enormous.”In terms of wealth, the O'Connors and the Longbottoms were on equal footing, but the O'Connors had fewer members and did not have the same level of influence in Windermere as the Longbottoms.Isabella said, “He’s very ambitious. A partnership would only just be the beginning. Once it’s established, he’ll start thinking about how to cheat us and steal our business.“Plus, he’s very lecherous. Nobody can put a number to how many women he’s toyed with. Some even lost

    Tony was aware that whenever his wife had to play the villain, it was always to protect him. He said, “You're right, I misspoke. Your mother isn’t that kind of person.”“Manny, I’ll be leaving soon. You stay here, and I’ll leave half of my men with you. If anything comes up that you can't handle, contact me. I’ll be waiting to hear good news from you.” Tony decided to fly to Wiltspoon in the afternoon. He would only stay for two or three days before returning to Havenmill to handle business.However, as he thought about how he was working like a horse for Longbottom Corporation when many of the benefits did not even belong to him personally, Tony felt a bit disgruntled.“Got it.” Manny did not reject his father’s arrangement.As the Longbottom father and son were discussing how to deal with the O’Connors, Austin entered Isabella’s office.Isabella was busy, so Austin did not disturb her. He quietly sat at the tea table and made some tea.“It seems you’ve learned the art of tea-

    Manny had never been to Wiltspoon, but he knew from his father that several prominent families in Wiltspoon had close ties with the Johnsons from Annenburg. It was possible that the child adopted by the Johnsons’ young missus was Laurence. Unfortunately, he could not meet that child, so he could not be a hundred percent certain. The child was currently out of sight and well-protected, hidden so effectively that even the Longbottoms’ information network could not find anything. The other prominent families in Wiltspoon were also helping to keep the child hidden, so Manny deeply disliked the people from these families. Even though they were thousands of miles away, they were still an obstacle to him and his father in their pursuit of becoming the true head of the family.“That's right. If we can conquer the O’Connors, we’ll have a backup plan,” his father said. “You must put your all into it, son. If you need help, just let me know, though this is also an opportunity for you to ge
