Kevin giggled and said, “I don’t mind if the house is expensive. I want it as long as it’s nice and suitable. Mr. Hayden, when are you free to take me to view the house?”“Since it’s quite late now, it’s not convenient to do so. Let me leave a number for you. When you’re free tomorrow, you can contact this number. Someone will take you there to look at the house.”“Alright. Thank you so much, Mr. Hayden.”Kevin thanked Hayden.Hayden gave Kevin her housekeeper’s number. “Mr. York, this is my housekeeper’s number. You can contact her, and she’ll help you contact the villa’s owner to take you on a house tour.“The house owner said that she wants to sell the house. She purposely left her contact number to her neighbors, saying that anyone who’s interested in buying the house can contact her.”“Alright. I’ll contact your housekeeper tomorrow. Thanks for your help, Mr. Hayden.”Hayden replied nonchalantly, “It’s no trouble at all. You’re most welcome, Mr. York.”He might not buy tha
After Kevin entered the hotel, he was not in a rush to head upstairs. Instead, he walked to the lounge on the ground floor. He then took out his phone to call his nana.Grandma May picked up his call and said, “Kevin, you still remember me, b*stard. I only told you off, and you ran away from home.”“Nana, I didn’t run away from home. I just came to Jensburg on a business trip. Now, I’m at Fortress Hotel.”Grandma May snorted. “Since you’ve gone to Jensburg, you should spend quality time with Hayden. That’s how you build relationships. Trust my taste. Both of you are suitable for each other.”One of them was talkative, whereas the other was silent. They could complement each other.Kevin looked around and saw no one. Only then did he whisper, “Nana, how did you find out that Hayden is a woman? From what I observed, she doesn’t portray feminine beauty and acts manlier than I do. Whenever I walk with her, it gives me the false impression that we’re buddies.”Grandma May giggled and
The York men would not commit such preposterous acts.“I believe I’ve raised you guys well. All of you are nice, capable, and responsible young men. You won’t do those things. It’s been a while since I practiced self-defense. I might not be as agile as before, but I can still summon my strength to deal with you if you ever do those things.Kevin said, “Nana… Can you at least wait for me to finish my sentence?”“Well, you didn’t say it all in one shot. How dare you blame me. It’s only because I’m your nana that I tolerate you.”“Nana, I’m going to take a look at a house tomorrow, and I need a psychicdiviner. He doesn’t need to be competent. Most importantly, he’s able to lie and twist things around.”Bewildered, Grandma May said, “I understand that you need a psychicdiviner to look at the house, given that buying a house is a big matter. If you buy a house with bad energy, your life will be negatively affected. The most dreadful thing is buying a house with the worst energy because
Grandma May was not at all worried. She merely faked her worry for Kevin.After Kevin hung up, Grandma May contacted a diviner and requested the diviner to fly over to Jensburg with his apprentice. Their flight ticket, meals, and accommodation would be covered. All they needed to do was contact Kevin and listen to his instructions.The diviner heartily agreed.After settling Kevin’s matters, Grandma May was in a cheerful mood. She headed to her eldest grandson’s house at night. When the butler heard the bell ring, he went to open the door, only to see Grandma May. Sam was dumbfounded. While opening the door for her, he asked, “Old Mrs. York, you should call us before you come over so we can pick you up. Did you come here by cab?”Although Grandma May could still drive, she was already old. Her grandchildren forbade her from driving even though she was physically strong. They wanted the chauffeur to drive her wherever she went.“My chauffeur sent me here. He left after I got out of
“This time, which rich young lady is interested in Zack?” Grandma May asked, “Does Seren know about it? When she’s back, I’ll talk to her and teach her how to deal with love rivals.”When Grandma May was young, she had love rivals too.Zachary resembled his grandfather.“I think Ms. Daniels met Missus in Wiltspoon or somewhere else. Missus was ready to deal with her, but the next day, she discovered that Ms. Daniels had left Wiltspoon the previous night.” “Ms. Daniels? Is it Mr. Daniels’s daughter, Jenna Daniels? Unsurprisingly, she’s interested in Zack. She’s quite capable, and she’s an only child. She should be taking over Daniels Group in the future.“Ms. Daniels is arrogant. Considering her status, she certainly thinks that only men like Zack deserve to be with her. Having said that, Mr. Daniels is a clever man. He won’t allow his daughter to be the other woman. ”Sam stayed silent, not knowing how to respond.That was all he knew. He was clueless about other things.“Ms.
Sam had encountered all kinds of issues. Based on Serenity’s condition, he could straight away tell that she was schemed against.Sam’s expression instantly turned solemn.It was very bold of the person who plotted against Serenity, the wife of Zachary York.What was more, Serenity was at the social function with Zachary. This meant the person had made a move against Serenity in front of Zachary. No wonder Zachary’s face was extremely dark.Grandma May also got a fright when she saw Zachary carrying Serenity into the house hurriedly.“Zack, what’s wrong with Seren?”“Nana, I’ll explain to you later.”Zachary was not surprised to find his nana in his house.As Grandma May was idly living her life, she was always going around. Her grandsons would always welcome her.While Zachary was speaking, he had already hurried upstairs with Serenity in his arms.Grandma May stood at the stairs watching him.Sam walked up to Grandma May and whispered, “Old Mrs. York, Missus might’ve been
Zachary was at a loss for words.“After getting Sam to ask Jim and the rest, I found out about the incident. You both are really unlucky.”Grandma May grinned and asked Zachary, “Do you want me to get you some tonics?”Zachary’s face was slightly red. “No. I’m good.”“Did you meet Shawn?”Zachary fell quiet for a moment before he nodded. “The Lowes realized that my relationship with Seren is stable and that Shawn has gotten over Seren, so they assigned him back to Lowe Enterprise from their subsidiary. He’s now Mr. Lowe’s secretary. He follows Mr. Lowe around every day. Mr. Lowe is the one guiding and teaching him in person.”Lowe Enterprise would eventually be handed over to Shawn. The Lowe’s relatives could stop eyeing the company.Shawn was Mrs. Lowe’s son and Jasmine’s cousin. Before Jasmine became Josh’s wife, the Lowe’s relatives had given up and quit eyeing Lowe Enterprise.Having Josh as his cousin-in-law, Shawn thought that those who dared compete for Lowe Enterprise w
Zachary accepted the paper and said, “No need. Just pick the closest date.” He had long prepared the betrothal gifts for Serenity. His elders wanted to add on, which was why he had yet to send the gifts over.After looking at the few dates his nana had picked, Zachary decided on the closest date. Once the betrothal gifts were sent over, it was time to prepare for the wedding.He wanted to hold a grand wedding for Serenity to impress the whole of Wiltspoon. He wanted his wedding to surpass that of Josh and Jasmine.He wanted everyone to know that Serenity was his wife and that he was taken. Hopefully, those undesirable admirers would not come to him anymore. He would not fall in love with anyone else he met.“Are you and Seren doing fine lately?” Grandma May asked in a seemingly casual manner.“We’re doing great. Seren and I are always fine. She’s been quite busy lately and always neglects me. If I hadn’t reminded her about my presence, she would’ve forgotten about me.“You do
“Besides, he caught a cold just from standing outside for half an hour without his jacket last time. He was only fine because he drank some spicy soup and took some medicine. Also, he has a strong body, because if it were other people, they would’ve fallen sick.“I just wanted to torture him a little. I don’t want him to die. I still need him so I can marry into the York family.”Layla smiled. “The York family has many young masters. It doesn’t have to be him. His cousins are of similar age as you, right?”“Peter is close to my age, but he already has a fiancée. Austin already has an arranged partner too. River and the rest are too young. Even if they were offered to me, I wouldn’t want them. I don’t like being the older one in a relationship.”Rowan was not even a legal adult yet.Layla said, “Okay. Old Mrs. York is a weird lady, but I can’t deny that she has a good eye for people.“I think Dylan isn’t even good enough for you. He can’t win against you in a fight, and his IQ and
If Imogen hated the noise and excitement in the air, she would not have snooped around as Chameleon Fox. That identity allowed her to explore and have fun. Sometimes, she would step up to help someone or be a troublemaker and offend someone.Layla walked over and sat down. She watched Imogen’s charming face and smiled. “That York guy is here again. He’s waiting at the company’s entrance. He has a bouquet in his hands, and his new car is parked behind him.“It looks like he wants to invite you to have a dinner date with him.”Layla asked, “What is he trying to do? Are you still planning to accept him?”Dylan had been living in a hotel since his arrival in Huntington. He was already looking at houses but had not found one he liked yet.Grandma May suggested he learn from Remy and buy a house right beside the Doyle family's. It would make it more convenient for him to pursue Imogen.However, none of the Doyles’ neighbors intended to sell their houses. Those people did not lack money
Imogen did not give Dylan a reply. She was still in the office.She did not even have time to look at his messages. She just wanted to finish her work as soon as possible so she could leave and eat.Did Dylan not need to work?He also had a company under his name. Even if he was not involved in managing York Corporation, he still had to manage his own company, right?Imogen was extremely busy.She had been overwhelmed with work since she resumed working yesterday. She would be at a meeting, on her way to see a client, handling documents, or solving issues at a branch company.Imogen barely had time to take a sip of water, let alone reply to Dylan’s messages.Seeing Dylan being so relaxed while she was working so hard put her in a bad mood. Her urge to ignore him gradually increased.As her parents had mentioned, she had other men to choose from. Dylan was not her only option.She could fall in love with someone else.Even if Imogen were to choose Dylan in the end, she would m
However, they had heard that this man had previously pursued Imogen, and those who had a good memory and had seen Dylan before, had already recognized him.When Imogen seemed a bit interested, this man then said he did not love her and went to pursue someone else. After failing to win over that person, he backtracked to pursue their vice president once more. This behavior left many people with a bad impression of Dylan.What did he take their vice president for?It was worth noting that Imogen was the chairman’s niece and the president’s sister. The chairman treated his own daughter and niece the same, and in the Doyle family, she was very much favored by her elders. The Doyles were one of the top families in Huntington, and as part of it, Imogen did not have to worry about finding a husband.Dylan ignored the looks people gave him. His gaze fixed on the cars coming out of the Davidson Group building, afraid that if he blinked, Imogen would pass him by.He watched the employees le
Duncan called Serenity to inform her that he was taking Sonny to the Lewises’ for dinner and would send him back later. Naturally, Serenity had no objections. With her nephew being well taken care of by Duncan, Serenity had time to go shopping with Jasmine. Jasmine was buying baby supplies as she was eight months pregnant and it was high time to prepare for the baby’s arrival. Watching Jasmine pick up items for her baby made Serenity feel the itch, and she ended up buying a ton of stuff for both her baby and Sonny.In the evening, Zachary and Josh came to pick up their wives.They both managed to cancel their appointments, leaving the task of handling work engagements to Callum and other senior executives. The two men who were once the busiest had now become the ones who most enjoyed slacking off.“Why did you buy so much? Where’s Sonny?” Zachary asked as he walked toward Serenity when he got out of the car. He saw his wife and her bodyguards carrying a bunch of shopping bags. T
Olivia cursed Duncan one last time. “You won’t have a good ending bullying the weak!” she spat before she was pulled away by her husband.Duncan watched them leave, his expression cold. “Dunc, don't be angry. My grandmom is always like that. When Lucas wanted my toys before, I cried and refused to let him take them. My mom wouldn’t let him either, but she always scolded my mom. I still remember that.”Sonny could vaguely remember some things from when he was two years old. It had only been a little over two years since then, after all.As he comforted Duncan, he gently touched Duncan's face, speaking softly, “Aunt Ser says we shouldn’t get too angry. If we get too angry, we’ll grow old faster. I don’t want you to get old, Dunc. I want you to stay just like this forever.“Dunc, please don’t be mad anymore. I won’t eat the fried chicken my grandmom buys for me anymore.”Duncan could not help but feel both amused and heartbroken for both Sonny and Liberty, who had been mistreated b
“I don’t want to. I want to be with Dunc.”Sonny did not want his grandmother to carry him. He turned to Olivia and said, “Aunt Lili treated me when I was sick and she said my throat got infected because I ate fried chicken, and that’s why I had a fever. She told me not to eat fried chicken anymore.“Aunt Ser also said that when I feel better, she’ll fry it for me herself. It’s safer than the fried chicken bought from outside, but I still can only eat a little bit, not too much.“Grandmom, I don’t want to eat fast food bought from outside anymore. You guys shouldn’t blame Dunc. He’s really good to me and if you scold him, I won’t like you anymore.”Sonny did not really have any affection for his grandparents. They had always taken his cousin Lucas’s side. Whatever toys he had or food he liked, Olivia would take them away to give to Lucas. He did not like Lucas, and he did not like Grandmom either. Even though his grandparents were nicer to him now, Sonny still spent very little t
Olivia immediately retracted her hand when she saw Duncan’s cold glance. Not daring to forcefully take Sonny from him, she awkwardly smiled and said to Duncan, “Mr. Lewis, can we have a word with Sonny?”“You can ask Sonny. If he’s happy to, that’s fine,” Duncan said coldly, giving Luke’s bag a glance before addressing both of them. “Mr. and Mrs. Brown, Sonny had a fever yesterday, which the doctor said was due to a throat infection. You two took him to eat a lot of fried chicken and fries that day, which caused the infection.“Today, you brought him more fast food. If Sonny eats that, he might have a fever again. Please try to avoid giving him such heavy foods in the future.”Olivia immediately became anxious, reaching out to touch Sonny’s forehead. “Has Sonny recovered from the fever? Are you still feeling unwell? Why didn’t you take a day off from preschool?“It’s fine to do that, you know. There’s no need to rush back to school. Plus, Sonny doesn’t eat much. We did take him to
“I don’t understand what Liberty is thinking, leaving Sonny in Wiltspoon. When she got Sonny’s custody, she should have taken him with her,” Olivia muttered.She really wanted her son to file another lawsuit and regain custody of Sonny, but out of consideration for Sonny’s future, she could not do that. Plus, her son would not listen to her anyway.“Liberty went to Jensburg. She’s probably still dealing with a lot of trouble over there and we don’t understand the situation. If she could, she would have taken Sonny with her. She values Sonny’s education a lot, and Sonny has been well-educated under her care,” Luke spoke more objectively.Although he did not like Duncan, he could see that Duncan really cared for Sonny. Sonny was very attached to Serenity because she had raised him. That was natural, and it probably had nothing to do with whether Duncan was a good stepfather or not. Luke did not say this out loud to avoid being scolded by his wife for siding with Duncan.“Here comes
