Without much hesitation, Serenity answered, “Okay. Liberty goes to the hospital to look after Mr. Lewis whenever she’s free. Mrs. Lewis was the one who begged her to do so.”Zachary was not surprised. Considering Duncan’s current condition, Mrs. Lewis deeply regretted her actions. She would not even mind kneeling down to beg Liberty as long as Duncan could recover.“Is Duncan willing to meet Liberty?” Zachary asked concernedly.“I didn’t ask Liberty. But she’s insistent on looking after Duncan. She must have a way to get into the ward.”She would sneak in, by hook or by crook. Sure enough, Serenity and Liberty were sisters. Serenity knew her sister very well.Zachary replied, “I hope Duncan doesn’t overthink things and gets well soon.”Comparing Duncan’s previous and current states, Zachary could identify with Duncan. If it were Zachary, he would have difficulty regaining confidence as well.“He’ll recover.”Serenity said to him, “Let’s jog two more rounds. After Sonny wakes

Sonny blinked, but he did not know how to express his discomfort. “He’s usually very loud, but he’s groggy today. He must be unwell. Bring the thermometer over and measure his temperature, Seren.”Serenity had already brought the thermometer without Zachary telling her and took Sonny’s temperature. A few minutes later, Zachary took the thermometer from Sonny’s armpit and handed it to Serenity. She held it up to look at it. She said, “100.9 degrees Fahrenheit. He has a fever. His temperature didn’t feel hot when I touched his forehead, but the number on the thermometer is so high. I’ll head upstairs to change my clothes. Let’s bring him to the hospital now.“I’ll call his instructor to request a leave of absence too.”Serenity took out her phone and called the self-defense instructor from the gym to request a day off on Sonny’s behalf as she spoke. Zachary said, “Don’t panic. Let’s try lowering his temperature first, then call the family doctor to check on him.”“That works

The family doctor said, “Missus, I’ll prescribe some medication for the child just in case. If his temperature can be lowered through physical means, he doesn’t have to take any medicine first. If his temperature can’t go down to normal and the fever persists above 101.3 degrees, feed him some medicine. I’ll come over again tomorrow.”“Don’t we have to give him medicine now?” Serenity asked. Zachary said, “Let’s avoid feeding him medicine if his condition doesn’t require it. Every medicine has some side effects.”If one kept taking medication or getting an IV drip for minor issues, it would be troublesome in the future once there was drug resistance. Serenity knew to avoid taking medicine as much as possible, but she and her sister always panicked and were extremely nervous whenever Sonny was unwell. They desperately wanted the child to get well immediately. Therefore, the first thing they did every time was to bring him to the doctor, put him on an IV drip, and take medicine.

Duncan looked at the insulated lunch box. He could not reach it after she moved it to the edge because of his injured legs. He was that useless. Everyone had been encouraging him to focus on recuperating. The doctor said the chances of recovery were high, but it was not a hundred percent. Who knew if he could make full recovery?If he could not, then he would merely be like just now, a person who could not even sweep a lunch box to the floor. It was as if the lunch box had a mouth and was laughing at him. He could not stand the sight of the lunch box, yet he could not get rid of it. Duncan was about to fly into a rage when Liberty’s phone rang. He saw her picking up the phone and heard her say, “Seren.” He knew it was a call from Serenity.Liberty did not pay attention to Duncan while she was on the phone call. Only then did he dare to remove his icy mask of disguise and drink the sight of her with his eyes greedily. He was desperate to be with the person he liked for twent

Duncan felt bad for Liberty, but he still did not want to be a burden to her. He said icily, “I said I’d give you six hundred thousand dollars. It’s double what my mom offered you. Leave now. Immediately. Right at this second. Leave!”“Mr. Lewis, I won’t take the six hundred thousand dollars. Mrs. Lewis hiring me is a long-term job, but you’re offering me a one-off amount. I’ll suffer a huge loss. However, if you were to give me six hundred grand for no specific reason each month, I won’t feel comfortable accepting the money. I prefer earning money by working. It makes me feel at ease when I spend it too.”Duncan was speechless. “Long-term? Are you planning to do this for your entire life?”“With your current attitude, I think it’s largely possible.”Duncan said, “I’ll get better. I’ll definitely recover.”Liberty laughed. “That’ll depend on whether you’ll cooperate with the treatment. If you keep this up, I’ll suspect your ability to stand up again. If you end up wheelchair-bound

“Liberty!” Duncan called from inside the ward. “I’ll go in and have a look, Mrs. Lewis.”Liberty withdrew her hand lightly and turned to return to the ward. Mrs. Lewis did not follow her in. As long as Liberty was present and did not call for their help, Mr. and Mrs. Lewis knew not to enter and leave them alone. Their son’s attitude was terrible, and he had not restrained his temper yet. However, Mr. and Mrs. Lewis knew their son wanted Liberty to stay and care for him. Mrs. Lewis returned to sit beside her husband. She sighed and said, “I was too stubborn back then. I’ll learn from Tania from now on.”Derek told his wife, “I’ve advised you many times, but you wouldn’t listen. Our son isn’t young anymore. Other people his age already have children in middle school, but he doesn’t even have a girlfriend. Since he finally has someone he likes, who cares how many times she has gotten divorced? It’s fine as long as our son likes her.“You didn’t heed my advice at all. Now, we

At the hilltop villa, when the call with her sister ended, Serenity retook Sonny’s temperature after he was done eating. She said to Zachary, “It’s 99.86 degrees Fahrenheit. Should we bathe him again?”Zachary poured a glass of water for Sonny to drink up. He said, “Sonny had just eaten his fill. Let him rest before giving him another warm bath. Breaking a fever is a gradual process. There’s no need to panic or worry. The medicine Dr. Thompson prescribed is still on standby.”Ring, ring…Zachary’s phone rang. Serenity said, “Sonny’s fever is going down. You’re busy and have lots of work to do, so you should go back to the office. I’ll look after Sonny at home.”Zachary did not reply but answered the call first. It was Mr. Daniels who called.“Mr. Daniels.”Zachary hated Jenna, but he still treated Mr. Daniels politely. The two companies were looking to collaborate after all. However, Zachary would be willing to give up on the golden opportunity and not work with Daniels Group i

“Sonny’s sick. I feel insecure leaving him at home. You’re worried too, right? If I were to follow you, would you be okay leaving Sonny alone?”Zachary did not say a word. He was uneasy about it too. “Next time, alright. I’ll definitely go with you next time. Don’t pull a long face. You should go upstairs to change your clothes and head out soon. Don’t keep Mr. Daniels waiting too long.”“Come upstairs with me to choose my outfit,” Zachary requested. Serenity lifted Sonny and started walking. “Am I not the one who bought all your clothes? They’re all in your favorite black color with little difference. Any outfit will suit you well. You have the perfect figure and will look good in anything.“I was also the one who bought the ties you’ve been wearing every day. You don’t even have to specifically choose the one I purchased. Wearing any one of them will add to your charisma.”Zachary muttered softly, “I just want you to help me put them on.”Serenity turned to glance at him.

“But as time passed, we treated you decently, no? Yet, you’ve never had any regard for us, your brothers, and not even for Dad.“You’ve been back with us for several years now. Even if we weren’t particularly close to you, we weren’t exactly terrible either, but you’ve always shut us out, never treating us as family. It’s you who couldn’t integrate into this family, not us who rejected you.”Every time Adrian saw Caroline, he had a lot to say. He always complained that Caroline was not close to them and that she was not on their side.Caroline wore a neutral expression. “Adrian, you might be much older than me, but you’re only middle-aged. Has your memory already started failing? Do I need to remind you of all the things you’ve done behind my back?“It’s not that I didn’t want to integrate into this family, it’s you who’ve always excluded me. You never treated me as your sister. “In your hearts, Celine was your sister, while I was just an intruder who shouldn’t have come back, wh

Adrian’s housekeeper was long bribed by Darren. Whenever he needed them, they would do his bidding. The video and audio recordings were sent by the housekeeper to Darren, who then forwarded them to Caroline.After reviewing the evidence, Caroline no longer felt like resting. She got out of bed, went into the bathroom, and quickly freshened up. When she came out, she grabbed her phone and left the lounge.She first brewed herself a cup of coffee, then carried the steaming cup to her desk and sat down, leisurely sipping it.Then, a knock sounded at the door.“Come in,” Caroline said.The door opened, and in walked Adrian.Seeing him enter, Caroline’s beautiful eyes flickered slightly, but her expression remained calm. She continued sipping her coffee as she watched her eldest brother approach.“Carol,” Adrian said with a forced smile, his tone somewhat affectionate.Caroline stopped drinking her coffee. She casually placed the cup on the table, straightened up, and said, “Adrian,

“You’re new here, so you wouldn’t know. I’ve been working here longer, and since the eldest son lives here, I’ve been able to hear the latest news about the Fisher family.”After all, family matters like these were not usually spread all over the city. Only major events that caught the media’s attention would get leaked. Adrian had no idea about the two security guards’ conversation. He believed he had executed his plan perfectly and was now just waiting for the final step to be carried out tonight in eliminating Caroline to avenge Celine and his mother, as well as reclaiming all of his mother’s private assets.He could not let Caroline take everything for herself.Adrian blamed Caroline for the deaths of Celine and Belinda, convinced that Caroline was responsible for their demise. However, in reality, even without Caroline, Audrey would have returned to seek justice for her mother, and the Fisher family would still have ended up in the same situation. Belinda’s descendants woul

“If you ever encounter any difficulties in the future, come to us. If we can help, we will. If we can’t, then there’s nothing we can do,” Adrian said.The Dott brothers pretended to decline the money, but after some back-and-forth, they eventually accepted, repeatedly expressing their gratitude.“I’ll call a car to take you back,” Adrian said, pulling out his phone to arrange transportation for them.Of course, they were not actually leaving Jensburg. They planned to start their operation tonight, aiming to deal with Caroline quickly to avoid any complications.“Thank you, Mr. Clark. You've already done so much for us,” the Dott brothers said, continuing to play their roles. They had come this far in their act and did not mind keeping up the charade a little longer.Soon, a black car really did arrive and stopped nearby. The driver stepped out and approached, respectfully greeting the three Clark brothers.“Take these two gentlemen home. They are Ms. Celine’s biological brothers,

Justin returned to the dining room and packed up all the leftover dishes they had not finished, along with the opened but unfinished bottle of wine. He stuffed everything into several bags and carried them out. Handing the leftovers to Jacob, he said, “If we’re going to keep up appearances, we need to make it look like we’re really giving you our charity, so take these leftovers back with you. You can heat them up for dinner tonight, otherwise, just toss them in the trash after you leave, but don’t throw away the wine—only you two had it. We haven’t touched it.“This wine is really good stuff, too. Where you’re from, even if you had the money, you wouldn’t be able to buy such fine wine. And if you did find any, it’d probably be fake.”Jacob took the leftovers and the unfinished bottle of wine from Justin. The wine was indeed excellent. In fact, he would have asked for it himself even if Justin had not offered it. In all his life, he had never tasted such good wine.“Once you’re re

Adrian beckoned Celine’s brothers closer in a low voice. The two had had some alcohol, and it was going to their heads. Their faces reddened in excitement and they hurried over.Adrian handed the suitcase to Jacob by the handle. He watched as Jacob laid it on the ground and opened it, exposing the thick wads of cash within.The Dott brothers' hands were trembling from excitement, for they had never seen so much cash before. At the thought that the bagful of cash was theirs now, wide smiles broke out across their faces. They each took a bundle and kissed it a couple of times.“I love this the most,” Jacob exclaimed excitedly. “The more, the better, and the more, the merrier.”“Me, too. Jacob, we’ll take ten bundles each. Let’s just keep the cash in this bag for now and when we get home, we’ll secretly divide it. For now, let’s not tell Mom, your wife, or any others.”The more people knew, the more talk there would be, so it was better for as few people as possible to know.Actuall

Ever since Belinda passed away, they were worried their cruel sister would cancel their bank cards. Therefore, they withdrew all the remaining money from the accounts from which they received their monthly allowance. Adrian rarely used the money on that particular card of his because it was a meager sum to him. Tens to hundreds of thousands a month was not even enough to buy a high-quality watch. In the past, he would only transfer the money from that card to another account every one or two years. Otherwise, he would withdraw the money and use it to flirt with women; cash could always draw many gorgeous women to him. Not many people could resist someone who could take out bundles of cash. Adrian recalled that he had withdrawn a few million dollars. He kept it all in a safe. When their mother was still alive, they spent money extravagantly. When they switched cars, they would get cars that cost millions and pay for them in full. They also made full payment when buying houses.

Jacob said, “Add one more million to it and make it six. My brother and I will get three million each. We won't do the job if you offer anything less than this.“After all, we’re the ones solving a problem for you guys. The benefits you’ll obtain from this are more than ten times the amount you’re offering us.“Besides, you three are adamant about killing Caroline, not us. We might even go to prison for this.“If we get three million each, we can consider helping you out.”Michael added, “That’s right. We may be poor, but our lives aren’t worth any less. There’s no such thing as wanting us to sacrifice our lives for you without giving us money.”Adrian went to take a fine bottle of wine and poured a glass each for Jacob and Michael. Meanwhile, he took a sip of his juice and told them, “We won’t be drinking alcohol since we have to drive and go to work. This is a precious wine I’ve been keeping. It’s sold for a high price outside.“Help yourselves to it. If you think it’s good,

It could not satisfy their appetites. After all, the Clark brothers were asking them to commit a crime. If they were caught, they had to pay the price and go to jail for several years. Losing their freedom for a few years in exchange for a million dollars was not worth it at all. “Mr. Adrian, we do hate Caroline, but she won’t do anything to us if we remain in the countryside away from Jensburg and avoid offending her.“We can still live a peaceful life. Although we’ll face financial difficulties, we can still afford basic necessities and be free.“You guys are the ones in a rush to eliminate Caroline. Her existence affects your benefits the most. Of course, you can choose to accept reality by resigning from Fisher Enterprise, selling your assets, and leaving Jensburg.“If you flee to the countryside like us, you can enjoy a comfortable life away from Caroline’s control. You won’t have to reward us for doing your bidding and can save that money.”Jacob could accept not gett
