Chapter 2182

Author: Gu Lingfei
Mrs. Lane said, “When I left yesterday, the door was locked. I was wondering why it’s not locked today. It turned out that you’re back, Missus.”

The moment the pet dog saw Serenity, it wagged its tail and scurried toward her.

Serenity said with a smile, “Snowball.”

She touched Snowball’s head and it lay obediently by the side of her leg.

“Mrs. Lane, we came back last night.”

Mrs. Lane grinned and said, “Missus, you should’ve given me a call so I could prepare great food for you.”

“No worries. This place is close to the market.”

Mrs. Lane had been working for Serenity, so the both of them were close. Mrs. Lane knew that Serenity would not put on airs. Even if Serenity did, Mrs. Lane dared not act unscrupulously.

When Mrs. Lane noticed that Zachary was busy preparing in the kitchen, she promptly went over to help him out.

Zachary said, “I’ve cooked pulled pork with sauerkraut. Mrs. Lane, you don’t need to help out. You can go to the balcony and see to the plants. You’ve been loo

    “Nana, Gramps is watching from above. He’s at peace,” Zachary chimed in after hearing Grandma May’s words.She replied with a smile, “As long as you get married and have a child, your gramps would be at ease. He was most worried about you. His attention was all placed on you.“When he was a father, he didn’t care for his sons as much as he did his grandsons when he became a grandfather. Back then, your gramps would criticize your father and all other sons. When it came to your generation, he’d be cheerful no matter what you did.” This showed that the intergenerational relationship between Old Mr. York and Zachary was better than the one he had with the generation before Zachary.Serenity had never seen Old Mr. York, so it was not her place to comment.As Zachary’s grandparents were the ones who raised him, he was the closest to the two of them.Zachary walked over to bring Grandma May to the dining table and seated her. He said with a smile, “Do I look like the younger version

    “Nana, is there any way to stop Seren from vomiting?”Grandma May said, “It’s normal to have morning sickness, but this only happens in the first trimester. After three months, morning sickness will gradually clear. If it’s not too severe, she can endure it. If it is, she should go to the hospital and see the doctor.“Don’t simply take medications as many can’t be taken during pregnancy,” Grandma May reminded her grandson.Serenity said, “Nana, I know. I won’t simply take medications. I’ll endure it.”In the end, she said in admiration, “Why didn’t Jasmine vomit?”Serenity wondered why she had this reaction but not Jasmine.“Everyone is different. Some people don’t vomit when they are pregnant with their first baby. However, they vomit terribly during their second pregnancy.”Serenity touched her belly and said, “I hope I won’t vomit until the baby is delivered.”“I’ll take Seren to the hospital for a checkup later. I’ll ask the doctor if there’s any way to ease her morning sic

    Zachary remembered the words of advice Serenity had offered to Clive back then.Having a miscarriage could be harmful to the body.The husband and wife should know each other best.Serenity was aware of Zachary’s expression. Soon, she was able to guess what was going on in his head. Also, he bit his tongue several times just now.“Zachary, don’t even think about it!”Serenity warned him seriously, “If you dare act as my cousin did, we’ll get a divorce. I’ll raise my child, and you don’t have to meddle in it.”“Seren.“What’s wrong?”Grandma May and Liberty were stupefied to hear what Seren said.Seren actually brought up divorce.Just like when Zachary revealed his identity, Serenity’s reaction was extreme and she mentioned that she wanted to get a divorce. Zachary acted like a lunatic at that time.The couple’s relationship then was stiff, which was worrying.Fortunately, they made peace afterward.Serenity never brought up divorce again with Zachary.She knew the me

    Grandma May was about to slap Zachary again. Serenity quickly pulled the old lady’s hand back. “I’m not angry anymore, Nana. Please stop hitting Zachary. He’s already in his thirties. He’ll be embarrassed if you keep beating him.”“Although Seren is protecting you and hiding your mistakes from me, I’m still giving you a warning—I won’t let you off if you don’t behave yourself.”Zachary smiled bitterly. “I know, Nana. I’ve always behaved myself properly.”Mrs. Lane soon returned with the sour prunes. Serenity tore the package open eagerly and ate one. The sour taste spread in her mouth. She smiled and said, “I love this taste.”Zachary breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Serenity enjoying the sour prunes. After a short rest, Zachary brought Serenity to the hospital for a checkup. Grandma May and Liberty remained in Brynfield. Mrs. Lane continued going about her business. Since they had nothing to do, Grandma May could finally ask Liberty about her and Duncan’s relation

    After a moment of silence, Liberty said, “He’s out of the ICU and transferred to a normal ward. He’s recovering. I brought Sonny to visit him previously.”Grandma May hummed in acknowledgment. “Does Hank still want to make up with you?”“He regrets his decision but has never mentioned anything about remarrying me. He and Jessica aren’t divorced yet. His family hopes he’d get a divorce with her, but he doesn’t seem to think the same.“However, even if he gets divorced, I won’t remarry him. I won’t stop him from meeting and bonding with Sonny because he’s his dad, but I’ll never remarry him out of consideration for Sonny. My feelings for him were already gone the moment he suggested we split our bills.”After a pause, Liberty added, “The Browns are persistent about getting Hank to remarry me. How can I do that? My heart was wounded terribly. It’s as good as dead. There’s no way I’ll go back to him. Even if I don’t marry again for the rest of my life, I’ll never remarry him.“Besides

    Grandma May said, “You’re just like Seren. You two have the same personality. Since you’ve said so, I can make Duncan happy when I visit him later at the Lewises’.”Liberty was speechless. She felt Grandma May was addicted to being a matchmaker. Grandma May had chosen Liberty as her next target after she had settled the marriages of her grandsons who were at marrying age. At that moment, someone knocked on the door. Liberty released Grandma May’s arm and said, “I’ll get it. I wonder who it is.”Zachary had brought Serenity to the hospital, so they would not be back so soon.Besides, not many people knew they were back. That was unless they could see Serenity’s post on Facebook. “I think it’s probably your aunt.”Liberty went to open the door. Snowball followed her while wagging its tail vigorously. Surprisingly, the person standing behind the door was Jasmine. “Liberty.”Jasmine greeted Liberty with a smile. Liberty moved aside to let her in. When she saw the two b

    Liberty chimed in after Jasmine, “Seren vomited after breakfast. Zachary was so worried. Aside from getting Serenity’s body checked at the hospital, he’s also going to ask the doctor for ways to ease her morning sickness.”Liberty smiled and said, “I think he’s so anxious that he’d rather be the one vomiting instead of Seren.”She was relieved to see her brother-in-law fussing over her sister. Serenity was definitely more fortunate than she was. Liberty and Hank used to be classmates. They dated for a long period before getting married and she got pregnant right after. The time Hank spent with her lessened because his career was taking off at that point. He always went out early in the morning and returned late at night. He did not even accompany her to prenatal checkups, let alone feel worried for her. He always told Serenity to attend those appointments with her. Liberty shook her head. She no longer wanted to recall her failed marriage with Hank. Jasmine said with a grin

    Throughout her pregnancy thus far, Jasmine felt as if she was in prison because she did not have much freedom. She wondered how the York family would treat Serenity. Would Serenity also be restricted to only looking after the bookstore like her? “You’re past your first trimester, right? The pregnancy should be stable. You can go out and get some fresh air as long as it’s not a dangerous place. Don’t tire yourself out though. When you’re in your late stages of pregnancy, it’s best to avoid traveling far.”Jasmine got even more jealous upon hearing Grandma May’s words. She was not jealous of the old lady but of her friend. Grandma May’s words made Jasmine realize that Serenity would not be restricted to just being in Wiltspoon like her. The three of them chatted for a while before Jasmine took her leave. She did not go home. Instead, she had her bodyguards send her to York Corporation. When Jasmine arrived at the company, there was still half an hour before the employees’

    Isabella’s bodyguard had only called out to her, not daring to touch her, so she had not woken up. However, when Austin gently patted her face and called her, she woke up almost immediately. When she opened her eyes and saw Austin’s handsome face, Isabella was momentarily dazed, thinking she was dreaming about him.She had actually dreamed about Austin. Had she developed feelings for him? If she had not, why would she dream about him? In all her life, this was the first time she had dreamed about a man.

She could smell the fresh scent on him because they were so close.He had showered.Isabella quietly lowered her hand, hoping Austin had not noticed her earlier intention, lest he misunderstood.“Ms. Isabella,” Austin’s warm and pleasant voice reached her ears, making her want to close her eyes and go back to sleep. With him around, she felt safe and secure.

    Hunter had neither money nor power. What could he possibly use to save his sons?“Dad, go home. When the trial starts, we’ll send someone to pick you up so you can attend and observe.”Hunter stood up angrily and stormed off.After he left, Ellie asked Ava, “Are we really not going to do anything? My child is still young. Having a father in prison will always be a stain on their life.”“What can we do? Even if we wanted to save them, we don’t have the means. We know what Caroline is like. She’s not going to let this go lightly this time,” Ava replied. “Anyway, think about last year, when they were caught cheating. How did they treat us then?”Remembering the events from last year, Ellie said, “Let them serve a few years in prison, then. Ava, Caroline is in the hospital. Should we go visit her?”“We should. Let’s go tomorrow. We’ll call Emma and visit Caroline together. The Fisher family is full of terrible people, but Caroline still has some conscience. She’s always been kind t

    Hunter was momentarily speechless. He did not have much money. When Belinda was alive, he never had more than five hundred dollars on him. After his children grew up, he secretly asked them for money. During that time, he had money to spend freely, living a lavish life outside.However, all that money had been spent. He had no savings, mainly because he was used to spending extravagantly.He had been unable to save money. He did not own any shops or properties either; Belinda had kept him on a tight leash.The house in their hometown had been built with Belinda’s money, but it was not under his name. It was under his three sons’ names.After Belinda’s death, his sons supported him. Each son gave him over a hundred thousand dollars a month for living expenses.Combined, that was several hundred thousand dollars a month, allowing him to live comfortably in Ashford. He had managed to save a little, but not much, just over a million dollars in total. Hiring the best lawyers for h

    Despite this, lying in bed and enduring the pain, Caroline could not help but start to cry, feeling deeply wronged.When Darren came in and saw her crying, he walked over, sat on the edge of the bed, and gently wiped her tears with a tissue.“They’re not worth your tears,” he said, his heart aching for her.Caroline sat up and buried herself in his arms. “Darren, you’re all I have now.”Darren held her tightly, his voice filled with tenderness. “I’ll always be by your side, no matter what happens, Ms. Caroline. Even if the sky falls, I’ll hold it up for you.“If you’re really hurting and need to cry, then cry. Let it all out.”It would also help her sever ties with the past and the family bonds that had caused her so much pain.Caroline did cry—a long, cathartic cry. It would be the last time. From now on, she and the Clarks would go their separate ways.Meanwhile, Hunter went to Justin’s house and called Jason’s wife, Ellie, over. He said to his two daughters-in-law, “By no

    After a moment of silence, Hunter repeated the same line. “But you didn’t die, did you? You only got a little hurt, and it’s not even serious.”Caroline almost laughed in anger at this.Sure, she had not died. She had only been injured. Did that erase the fact that her brothers had tried to kill her, though?She retorted, “Dad, if I had tried to kill your three sons, but they didn’t die and only got a little hurt, would you say the same thing to them? Would you tell them it’s just a family dispute, ask them to forgive me, not to sue me, and not to send me to jail?”Hunter instinctively replied, "If you had the intent to kill, how could I let you continue down that path? Of course, I’d have to let you serve a few years in prison…“Carol, I’m old, really old. I only have the boys to rely on in my old age. Are you trying to leave me with no one to depend on in my later years?”Caroline said coldly, “I’ll provide for your living expenses. I’ll make sure you don’t starve. You can even

    Darren did not let go even after being struck.Seeing Darren get hit, Caroline’s expression darkened. She coldly said to her father, “Dad, if you really want to kneel, go kneel at the hospital entrance and shout at the top of your lungs that your daughter is unfilial.“Tell everyone that your sons tried to kill your daughter, and your daughter refuses to forgive them, so you’re kneeling there to force her to forgive your sons.“Let’s see if I give in.”Hunter stopped struggling. After slapping Darren, he felt a pang of fear. He was afraid Caroline might retaliate by slapping him to avenge Darren. Fortunately, while Caroline was furious, she did not lay a hand on him.He began to cry. “Carol…” He wept bitterly.Darren released him, and Hunter sat on the sofa, sobbing, “Carol, I’m old. I have no income, my parents are long gone, and your mother is no longer here. I only have your three brothers to rely on.“If you send all three of them to prison, what will happen to me? Who w

    Caroline hummed. “I do plan to visit Wiltspoon to see her sometime soon. I just don’t know if I’ll be kicked out when I get there.”“And I should visit Mr. Foster too. How is he, by the way?" Patrick was the longest-living person she had ever met. Back when she lived with her adoptive family in the countryside, the oldest people in town usually lived into their eighties, and few made it to ninety. Patrick was nearly a hundred years old. What was more, he could walk without support and even travel long distances with his old friends.Liberty replied, “He’s doing quite well. Aunt Audrey accompanies him on walks every day. When they don’t go out, he sits by the cradle and watches baby Elias for hours on end.”The bond between generations was strong. When Patrick looked at Clive’s son, Elias, he felt like he was looking at his great-grandson. As Tiara’s great-grandson, Elias was naturally like his own great-grandson, too.“Dr. Carden comes by periodically to check on him and adjus

    Liberty had already called Audrey to inform her about what had happened and also mentioned it to Serenity.Knowing the Clark brothers had all been captured, Serenity felt thoroughly relieved and stopped worrying that her sister would run into trouble in Jensburg.She told Zachary that Caroline never let people down.Zachary did not comment.Caroline’s fever had completely subsided, but her coughing had worsened. The doctor had changed her prescription, but the effects were not immediate.When Liberty entered, Caroline was out of bed and walking around, supported by Darren.“Caroline, why are you out of bed?”Liberty scolded her, “Get back in bed and lie down. You’re injured. If you don’t rest properly and keep moving around, you’ll aggravate your wounds, and you’ll regret it.”She did not blame Darren, though. She knew Caroline always came first to him. He always followed her lead and was unable to influence her decisions.“I’ve been lying down all day. My back is sore, and I’m

    The housekeeper replied, “Yes, sir.”They did not have much work in the first place, so they did not need to slack off. Once they were done with their work, they had tons of time to entertain themselves.Hunter rushed out the door with his car keys. Despite being over seventy years old, his driving skills were still quite good. Not needing to hire a driver, he drove himself straight to Jensburg.Upon arriving at the city, Hunter did not immediately go looking for Caroline. He was unaware that she had been injured.Instead, he went to meet his old friends to ask them to help him find out if anything had happened in relation to the Fisher family last night.After he finished speaking, one of his friends said, “We were about to ask you the same thing. Your three sons attacked your daughter with knives and even kidnapped her, intending to chop her up and feed her to the fish.“Luckily, that Mr. Fletcher, who works for your daughter, arrived with the police and rescued her, but she wa
