Chapter 2041

Author: Gu Lingfei
“You should get out quick, Caroline. Don’t spoil Mom’s mood here. Look at how angry she is because of you. Just go out.”

Celine pretended to be nice and persuaded Caroline to leave.

She even went forward to push and urge Caroline out.

Caroline simply allowed Celine to push her out without giving an explanation and neither did she put up any resistance.

After pushing Caroline out of the office, Celine shut the office door with a bang.

She was elated.

Mom had passed a few smaller businesses and subsidiaries to Caroline to manage, and she had produced remarkable results. However, while it seemed that Caroline had full control over them, it turned out that she had been relying on other people’s help. She also presented her brothers’ efforts as her own.

If so, Celine was relieved.

So what if Caroline was Mom’s biological daughter? If she could not satisfy Mom, she would not be able to be the next matriarch.

Mom would probably hand over the position to Celine instead. After

    Caroline was aware of everyone’s thoughts. Ring, ring…After entering the elevator, Caroline received a call. She only picked up the call after seeing the caller’s name. “Ms. Caroline, I received news that the previous matriarch, who was your eldest aunt, did have two daughters. They disappeared tens of years ago. I heard they’re currently in Wiltspoon,”Wiltspoon?Caroline asked coldly, “Do you know where in Wiltspoon exactly? How are they doing now? Do they remember anything about their family background?”“The elder daughter of the previous matriarch seems to have married into the Stone family in Wiltspoon. She’s the mother of the CEO of Stone Group. On the other hand, the younger daughter passed away in a car accident sixteen years ago, but she left two daughters behind. One of them is the missus of the York family, the wealthiest family in Wiltspoon.”Upon hearing that, Caroline’s expression changed. She heard some gossip after returning to the Fisher family. She happen

    “I can’t keep this a secret, Ms. Caroline. I got my information from them. They’ve already sent someone to meet Mrs. Stone in Wiltspoon.”After a moment of silence, Caroline said, “Okay. I got it. Keep it a secret from Madam Fisher for now.”Her mom would probably have to return what she had stolen in the end. It all depended on her choice. After ending the call, Caroline leaned against the elevator’s wall and stared at the ceiling. The Fisher family was a mess. If the rumors were true, her mom’s hands were stained with the blood of her eldest and youngest aunts. Her mom would even disregard family ties to fight for power. She was ruthless. How could Caroline make a choice?What did she have to do?Caroline could never be her mom’s accomplice. Although she grew up in a village, she had proper values. She could differentiate between good and evil. She would make arrangements again after confirming whether Mrs. Stone in Wiltspoon was her eldest aunt’s daughter. What

    “I wanted to return to working at the company and have Mom arrange an easy position for me. However, Caroline objected and said the company wouldn’t keep useless people. Was she someone useful herself? She’s the same as an idle person.”Celine had a lot of words cooped up inside her. She poured everything out to Emma. Her parents, brothers, and sisters-in-law still adored her more. “What else did Mom say?”Emma was more than happy to see Celine and Caroline fighting. “Mom also said if Caroline doesn’t buck up, she might not be able to be the next matriarch. From what Mom mentioned, I still stand a high chance if Caroline doesn’t do well as the successor. Emma, tell Brother to put in good words for me when he’s with Mom and let me work in the company again.“I want to fight with Caroline till the end. In any case, I’m the successor that Mom nurtured personally.”Celine was confident that she could beat Caroline. Emma said, “We’ve all put in good words for you in front of Mom

    “It’s all about Caroline, Caroline. Who does she think she is? She’s just a useless person. Even with Mom’s effort to help her, she’s still incompetent. We’ll see who’s the true successor of Fisher Enterprise once Mom gives up on her. Those people who looked down on me better watch out!“There’s also Mr. Queen, the man I have my eyes on. I want him to love and worship me one day. Mom is supportive of me pursuing him too.”Celine thought of pursuing Hayden first while she was not the successor yet. She would snatch the identity as the heir back after successfully wooing Hayden. That way, she would have both her Mr. Right and status.It would be perfect. Emma was looking forward to Celine and Caroline battling each other. Her husband would be able to benefit from their conflict. Therefore, she kept flattering Celine and made her think she was the most outstanding woman in the world. Back in Wiltspoon, Serenity was also paying attention to the Fisher family’s internal conflicts t

    “You’re so beautiful. You’re pregnant, but you still maintain a great figure. Your charm as a young married woman is only increasing. Even Mr. Bucham is completely wrapped around your little finger.”Jasmine snickered. “Everyone in the Bucham family is feeding me like I’m a pig, but you say I’m maintaining a great figure? I think you’ll see my belly start swelling very soon, but because of the fats. With how much they feed me every day, it’ll be strange if I don’t get fat. I want to work out, but Josh won’t let me.“However, I can’t control my mouth. I was already a foodie before, but now that I’m pregnant, it’s become worse. My mouth is like a rabbit’s. It never stops.”As Jasmine spoke, she got up and brought two boxes of snacks. “I brought these from home. They’re new products made by the pastry chef at home. I think they’re delicious, so I brought you two boxes to try.”Serenity took a box and said, “Your pastry chef is really good at baking. I’ll give it a try. If it’s good, I

    “I’m just joking. Don’t be mad. Don’t be mad, okay? We won’t bother with Jenna. We’ll just let her father deal with her. Mr. Daniels is an upstanding man.”Serenity had a good impression of Edwin. She just had a bad impression of Jenna.Jenna was Edwin’s only daughter. She was born only after Edwin took a lot of medicine to nourish his body, and she was raised into a domineering girl.If she took a fancy to something, she must have it regardless of whether it was a person or object.Edwin must have talked to his daughter before. He must have scolded and warned her.Otherwise, Jenna would not stay in her place quietly and only dare to find a lookalike to take photos with to send to Serenity and add to her problems.Zachary said, “I’ll contact Mr. Daniels later and send him the photos. He’ll deal with it.”After the cooperative project between the two companies was settled, Zachary did not follow up on it. He left it to other people to handle instead.Edwin did not know how shame

    After Serenity hung up the phone, she said to her best friend, “Mr. York refused to cooperate with me in the acting.”Jasmine giggled. “Even while thinking with my toes, I’d know he wouldn’t cooperate.“He’s like a piece of gum that wants to stick to you 24/7. How would a piece of gum like that be willing to cooperate with you in acting? It’s not worth it if you really chase him out to the study.”“Birds of a feather flock together. Mr. Bucham is also a piece of gum.”Jasmine said wittily, “Exactly. I haven’t messaged him about going to the manor with you for a staycation during the weekend yet.“I’ll tell him during lunch.”If she told him now and he was unwilling, it would affect his work.On the other side, Zachary called Edwin after he finished talking with his wife.Edwin swiftly answered the call.“Mr. York.”“Sorry for bothering you, Mr. Daniels. Can I text you?”Edwin was first stunned before saying with a smile, “Of course.”“We’ll chat on WhatsApp.”Zachary hung

    Layla scoffed. “Who knows if you’re truly sincere?”“I know you all won’t believe me no matter what I say, Ms. Doyle. I’ll prove that I’m serious about Imogen through my actions.”Dylan spoke with honesty, “If there’s a sliver of possibility that I’m playing around with Imogen’s heart again, you don’t have to teach me a lesson. My family will gladly do the honors. Besides, I’m not that kind of person. Back then, I thought of developing a relationship with Imogen because of Nana’s orders.”“That’s right. You listened to your nana and came to pursue Jen for three months. Jen was young and naive. Just when she started getting attracted to you, you ran away and said you realized you couldn’t fall in love with her.“Is Jen’s love worth so little? Would you even have given an explanation if Jen didn’t go to you for one?“It’s been months since then. Just as Jen has moved on, you reappear and disrupt her peaceful life. You came back to pursue her because you couldn’t get the woman you lo

    “We can talk about this next time. By the way, Layla already left.“I still have some work to do. I’ll hang up now. Don’t call me again even if the world is ending. I’ll hate you if you disturb me and make me work till late at night.”Dylan said, “Okay. I won’t disturb you. Go on with your work. Remember not to exhaust yourself.”Imogen hung up without another word.Before Dylan could even put his phone back into his pocket, he saw a luxury car exiting the parking lot.Since it was past working hours, most employees had already left.That luxury car probably belonged to Layla.Dylan had met members of the Doyle family before. However, he did not have a deep impression of them.Layla Doyle was the president of Davidson Group. Although there was still a board of directors above her, she still called the shots for most matters.Therefore, she was extremely busy. Back when Dylan deliberately approached Imogen and treated her well to pursue her, he had only seen Layla once from afa

    Dylan smiled. “Look, Imogen. It’s dark, and it’s time to have dinner. Aren’t you hungry? Why don’t you come out and have dinner with me? I can take you back to the office to continue working afterward. What do you think?“How much work do you have left? I bought two movie tickets. We can go watch a movie after you’re done working.”Imogen rejected him coldly. “I’m sorry, Mr. Dylan. I’m not free. I’ll be heading home for dinner after work. Since it’s a rare day where I don’t have to attend an event, I want to have a good rest.”She had already made an appointment with a few of her best friends to go shopping at eight o’clock that night.She had no time to accompany Dylan.How could he think of having dinner and watching a movie together? It had only been one day since he decided to pursue her again.Dylan could dream on.Imogen had not even admitted she was Chameleon Fox. How could she possibly accept him?Did he think she was an easy target?In the past, Imogen had loved him s

    “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?

    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
