Liberty passed the phone to her son. She looked at her store. The employees were done packing, so she told them to leave first. Afterward, she thanked Jim. “Jim, thank you for picking Sonny up again.”“Stop saying thank you, Liberty. This is the task assigned to me by Mr. and Mrs. York. It’s my responsibility.”Jim chuckled warmly. “I’m happy to be of help to you. Sonny is so cute too. I’ll start missing him if I don’t see him for a day.”Upon hearing Jim’s words, Sonny raised his chin and said confidently, “Jim, am I the most lovable and adorable child ever?”Jim smiled and said, “You’re right. You’re lovable, adorable, and the cutest child I’ve ever seen.”Liberty walked out with Sonny’s hand in hers. She laughed and said, “Stop praising him, Jim. His imaginary tail will point upward to the sky if you keep doing that.”“I’m telling the truth. Sonny is the cutest child I’ve ever seen.”Jim insisted he was speaking the truth. Of course, after many years, he would say the sam

Serenity asked concernedly, “Liberty, what is it?”“It’s nothing serious. I just found a highly-paid job.”After rinsing the quinoa, Liberty added water and turned on the right heat setting before turning to face her sister. “Liberty, your diner is doing great. Why do you still have to look for a job? Are you stressed because Sonny is going to a learning center? It’s okay. I can help to pay for his school fees. I can’t even finish spending the allowance Zachary gives me every month. Everyone in his family receives an allowance each month too. The last thing I’m lacking is money.”Serenity thought her sister had looked for a job because she was too stressed.“No. Sonny’s school fees aren’t a problem. The money Hank gave me back then is enough for Sonny’s education. I have an income every day as well. It’s not because I lack money.”Liberty looked outside and saw Jasmine playing with Sonny. She said, “Mrs. Lewis came to look for me just now.”Upon hearing that, Serenity frowned.

“I’ll make stew. I can bring Mr. Lewis some when I head to the hospital in a bit.” Liberty turned around and got the ingredients out of the bags for prepping to make the stew. “I should respond to Mrs. Lewis.” Having recalled that she would give Mrs. Lewis a reply, Liberty paused in motion and whipped out her phone to call Mrs. Lewis. She let Mrs. Lewis know of her decision. Mrs. Lewis was grateful and insisted on giving Liberty some sort of payment. It was not like Mrs. Lewis could do anything if Liberty refused to take payment. With that in mind, Liberty went on to make lunch. The food was ready when it was close to lunch break. “Seren, I’m delivering some stew to Mr. Lewis. Sonny will stay here with you.” Liberty carried a food container out of the kitchen. “Lunch is ready and in the pot. Help yourselves when you and Jasmine are done with work.” “Have you eaten, Liberty?” Serenity asked with concern. It had not been busy at the bookshop lately. However, with th

“Don’t yell at Duncan, Charmaine. He doesn’t mean it.” Mrs. Lewis pulled Charmine outside the room. “Don’t criticize him. Duncan has it hard enough.” Charmaine answered, “I know Duncan is in low spirits, but so are we. We are concerned about him and his health. He gave up on himself before the doctor did.“You can’t continue to enable him, Corey. We must get him back on his feet.” Corey had been beating herself up and stayed by Duncan’s side to nurse him since his accident. Charmaine could understand where Corey was coming from. All they could do was visit and deliver food to the hospital every day. Sometimes, Duncan would refuse to see them when they came around. Since Charmaine’s husband assumed the leadership role of the Lewises family business, he was swamped with work every day while fretting over Duncan’s injury. However, Duncan was too caught up in his sorrow to care about his family’s feelings. Mrs. Lewis’s eyes welled up. She choked with sobs. “I want him to

Mrs. Lewis, who was in the living room outside the ward, answered the door. The door was open, and there was a bodyguard. “Ms. Liberty is here again, ma’am.” The bodyguard reported to Mrs. Lewis. Mrs. Lewis did not have a chance to answer as Duncan’s keen ear picked up on the announcement from inside the ward. No longer keeping a straight face, he shouted, “Tell her to leave. I don’t want to see her! Tell her never to come back to the hospital! She can get lost for all I care!” Following Mr. Duncan’s resounding yell, the bodyguard sighed to himself.Mr. Duncan had behaved as such every time Ms. Liberty came by. Only Ms. Liberty was capable of invoking such emotions from Mr. Duncan.Any dummy could tell that Ms. Liberty could influence Mr. Duncan emotionally. “Let Liberty enter.” Mrs. Lewis went against her son’s wishes. It put the bodyguard in a difficult spot. Inside the ward, Duncan anxiously tried to turn over and get out of bed. Nevertheless, his legs were

“Duncan,” said Mrs. Lewis. She asked Liberty to come and take care of her son. Mrs. Lewis felt bad now that Liberty was left standing outside. Duncan closed his eyes, refusing to talk. There was nothing Mrs. Lewis could do about it. The cold sweat dripping from her son’s forehead gave Mrs. Lewis great distress. She grabbed a tissue and dabbed the sweat off her son. “I know that you still have feelings for Liberty, Duncan. Why do this to yourself?” Duncan kept his eyes closed and his mouth shut. He was more upset than anyone else to leave Liberty out in the cold, and the heartache was hard to bear. Still, Duncan did not want Liberty to see him like this. Liberty did not fall in love with him when he was in the best health. There were lesser chances of Liberty ever falling for him now that he was crippled. The only feelings he would get from her were pity. Seeing that her son was not in the mood to talk, Mrs. Lewis did not pursue the subject further. After a brief

With a deadpan face, Duncan threw a fit about refusing to see Liberty. Now that he saw her in person, his greedy eyes locked onto Liberty’s face as if he was trying to etch her looks on his mind. Duncan opened his mouth to say something, but nothing came through his parted lips. Duncan was at a loss for words. He must be dreaming. Duncan said he did not want to see Liberty, so his parents would not let her in.He had to be dreaming. Duncan closed his eyes once more. The soft tissue brushing against his skin prompted Duncan to open his eyes. He was not dreaming. It really was Liberty.He could not believe that Liberty was here. Who let her in? With a chilling gaze and an aloof expression, Duncan raised his hand and roughly slapped Liberty’s hand away. He sternly questioned, “Who said you could come in? I don’t want to see you! Get out! Aren’t you happy enough that you got me in this sorry state? Go! Go now! The last person I want to see is you!” Liberty calmly retr

Mrs. Lewis wanted to get inside the ward. However, her husband held her back and said, “Since Liberty is in there, leave it to her to handle the situation.” The two bodyguards made a long face and uttered, “Sir, Mr. Duncan will punish us if we don’t get in there.” Mr. Duncan would not do anything to Mr. and Mrs. Lewis as they were his parents. Nevertheless, they were merely bodyguards. “Go inside and see what you can do about the situation.” Mr. Lewis believed the two bodyguards would dare not lay hands on Liberty anyway. Duncan may seem like he wanted Liberty out, but he could not stand anybody manhandling Liberty. He would feel bad. The two bodyguards went into the ward. Liberty had moved a chair to sit right beside the bed and quietly observed Duncan as he smacked the bed while not knowing what to do with her. “Kick her out and don’t let her in again!” With the two bodyguards entering the ward, Duncan ended the abuse on the bed and pointed at Liberty to get he

“I’m sorry. I have a business appointment tonight.”Tati rejected Manny’s invitation without hesitation. Manny had been pursuing her relentlessly. If she were to have a meal with him, the paparazzi stalking them would take pictures and she would be on the local entertainment headlines the next day. She would not give Manny any chances to advertise false information about their relationship. Manny looked disappointed. “Another day then.“By the way, you’ll be attending a banquet two days later, right? Can I be your escort?”Tati and Isabella would not attend just any banquet. Families who could invite them were wealthy and close to the O’Connors. Ordinary banquets could never have Tati and Isabella as guests. Manny had gathered information for two days. He heard that one of the wealthy families in Satbury would be holding a banquet to celebrate their old missus’s eightieth birthday, and many guests were invited to liven up the celebration. A missus of that family was clos

“My family isn’t inferior to yours, sweet Tati. The Longbottoms even surpass the O’Connors. As a young master of the Longbottoms, why will I go after your family’s money?“Money has never been a problem for the Longbottom family. In fact, you and I are the best match for each other. Our families are equally rich. If we get together, it’ll be a joining of two strong forces.”Tati wanted to say that while the Longbottom family surpassed the O’Connors, Manny was not the true person in power within his family. Even his father was not the legitimate head. The power and wealth of the Longbottom family belonged to the true head of the family. Tony and Manny Longbottom were simply managing the family in the interim. Did they think the family had become theirs?If the son of the previous Longbottom family head grew up and returned to take charge of the family, Tony and Manny would no longer have any influence. They would only receive some compensation for their hard work. Without the L

Tati looked toward Manny and said in a serious tone, “If you love someone, you’d be considerate of her and do what’s best for her.“Meanwhile, you’re disregarding any inconvenience this might cause me just to appear romantic. You know I’m busy, yet you put flowers here and blocked my way, wasting my time.“Do your actions truly reflect your love for me? Are you being considerate of me?”Tati would not have said a word if Manny had asked his people to place the flowers in an empty spot. However, he just had to do it at the entrance of the company, attracting many people. Her company security team could not even chase them away. They knew Manny’s identity and that he was pursuing her. If the security chased him away, the Longbottom and O’Connor families could end up enemies. Secondly, they were worried about getting fired if Tati were to accept Manny’s feelings one day and decide to punish them. Tati would not blame the security for failing to execute their duty. After Manny s

“It’s okay if you don’t want my bouquets. Can you feel my sincere love for you through these letters?“I fell in love with you at first sight, and I fell even harder the second time I saw you.”Manny’s gaze was affectionate as if he truly loved Tati. To be honest, Tati was outstanding in various aspects. She was good enough for him, a young master of the Longbottoms. They were also close in age and definitely had common topics to talk about. However, Tati refused to give him a chance and rejected his confession. That did not matter. After all, it had not been long since he started pursuing Tati. As the O’Connors had more daughters than sons, he could understand that their daughters would be especially cautious regarding romantic relationships. They did not want men dating them solely for the O’Connor family’s money. Although that had been Manny’s initial intention, he was satisfied with Tati after meeting her in person. He was willing to marry her. Besides, Tati was com

Meanwhile, in Satbury, Tati returned to the company but was forced to stop her car at the entrance. Some people were decorating the entrance with flowers. Security tried to chase them away, but they did not even budge. The security guards seemed wary of something and did not force those people to leave. A few cars were parked nearby, including a truck that still carried fresh flowers.Tati did not honk. There were people and flowers on the road before her and honking was useless anyway, or she could simply drive past without a care. She got out of the car to have a look. “Sweet Tati.”An unfamiliar voice rang. Tati looked toward the person who called her and frowned. She recognized that person. He was Manny Longbottom, the eldest son of the interim head of the family.Mr. Longbottom had come over several times for business negotiations. However, it was not yet his scheduled timing. Even if he were the Longbottom family’s interim head, there would be no special treatmen

First, Adrian poured himself a glass of water. He then sat down at his desk, pulled out his phone, and made a call to Jacob while sipping his water.When the call connected, he spoke in a low voice, “We’re going ahead with the plan. Caroline will be heading to Fortress Hotel later to meet with a client. After the meeting, she’ll have dinner there.“The discussion and dinner will take a long time. By the time she leaves the hotel, it’ll already be nighttime. She probably won’t go anywhere else after that.“Wait for her on the route she usually takes home. Her license plate is CA 201. Got it?”Adrian made sure Jacob remembered Caroline’s license plate number. He had also sent the information via text, so unless the person had an exceptionally bad memory, they should be able to recall it.Jacob replied, “Got it. We’ll have to start preparing, then. Try to get Caroline to drink some alcohol. If she’s drunk, it’ll be easier to handle her.”After all, they could not guarantee that the

Adrian snapped, “Are you saying that I don’t do real work? Caroline, I was working at Fisher Enterprise long before we even knew you existed.”Caroline said neutrally, “Yes, yes, Adrian, you’ve been at Fisher Enterprise for a long time, but what achievements have you made? I mean, achievements that you accomplished on your own.“The results credited to you in the past weren’t actually your doing. You know better than anyone how they came about, so I won’t spell it out. I may have joined Fisher Enterprise only recently, but look at the position I’m in now.“Adrian, I’ve made it very clear. If you want to keep your job, do it well and take it seriously. Stop trying to take credit for other people’s work.”Adrian’s expression darkened. “I only said a couple of things, and you fired back with dozens. Can’t you give me some grace? I have pride, too.”“Adrian, go back to work. I need to get ready to head out soon.” Caroline was done talking to her brother.Adrian fell silent for a mo

Adrian was sullenly quiet. Was he really that incompetent? He thought he had done a pretty good job.Back when their mother was still around, he had not even needed to lift a finger. He just had to vaguely outline the requirements, and the elite team under him would come up with a proposal that satisfied everyone upstairs.All he had to do was wait for the praise and the compliments about how capable he was.After doing this for so long, Adrian had started to believe that he truly was talented.Then, he found out that Celine was not his biological sister and that Caroline was, but the latter had grown up in the countryside, appearing weak and timid, and seemed useless to the company—a good-for-nothing. Thus, Adrian began to harbor ambitions. He wanted to replace his sister and become the successor of the Fisher family.He had repeatedly expressed to his mother his desire to take over, to become the first male successor in the Fisher family’s history. He even said he was willing

Adrian tried several times to interrupt his sister, but Caroline’s barrage came at him like a machine gun, rapid and relentless. All he could do was glare at her, his face flush with anger. If looks could kill, Caroline would have been torn to pieces long ago.After finishing her lecture, Caroline picked up her cup and took a few sips of her coffee. She then said, “Adrian, look at me, I’m parched from all this talking. I’ve really gone out of my way to persuade you for your own good, just like how you tried to persuade me not to hand over control of the Fisher family. “To be honest, even if I didn’t give it back to Audrey and the rest, do you think I could hold onto the position of the matriarch?“The rest of the family doesn’t support us. They might not necessarily side with the Wiltspoonians either, but they definitely won’t side with us. They’ve long been dissatisfied with Mom and us.“Without their support and unable to win against Audrey, the Fisher legacy would eventually be
