Chapter 2216

Author: Gu Lingfei
Celine broke free from the two security guards and turned back to give one of them a slap in the face.

She yelled, “You’re nothing but watchdogs. You have no right to touch me. Do you think you can hurt me because I’m not the real heiress of the Fisher family? Even the real heiress has to think twice before crossing me.”

Then came a smack.

It did not come from Celine though. The security guard who was slapped returned the favor.

Since the security guard was a man, he packed a lot of force into the slap.

The heavy blow threw Celine off. With a hand over her cheek, she glared at the security guard in disbelief.

The burning pain pulled Celine back to reality as she furiously swung her arm.

Nevertheless, the security guard was not going to take her abuse lying down. He dodged Celine’s incoming palm and pushed her away. Celine staggered back until she regained footing.

“How dare you hit me, b*stard! I’m going to kill you for pushing me!”

Once she kept to her feet, Celine pi

    “Hayden will not like you. You’re a man!” Celine blurted in anger before storming off. She could not beat Kevin. Her mother often reminded her to avoid taking Kevin head-on as York Corporation stood behind Kevin. Even her mother had to tread carefully around Kevin. Kevin told the two security guards, “You can get back to work. Don’t bother with this psycho. Don’t worry, I have your back.” Well, he was curious to see if Madam Fisher would get even with him on the imposter’s behalf. Kevin got a handle on the situation after Mrs. Stone’s discreet trip with Liberty to Jensburg—the Fishers and the Yorks were on opposite sides. Madam Fisher caused the death of Serenity’s grandmother! The two security guards thanked Kevin and went back to their posts. It was not as though they were afraid as they were merely carrying out Mr. Hayden’s orders to drag Celine away. Celine was playing with fire to block Mr. Hayden’s way. Celine should consider herself lucky that Mr. Hayden did n

    How could Caroline possibly ditch the client for Celine at a time like this? Even if she did not need to meet a client, Caroline would not pick Celine up. The phony had occupied everything that was hers, and now that the truth was out, Celine never once apologized to Caroline. In fact, Celine pushed her around, so why should she fetch Celine from Queen Enterprise? “Who called you?” asked Madam Fisher tenderly as she noticed her daughter answering a call and promptly hanging up without a word.“It was Celine.” “What does she want now? Why did she call you?” The mother and daughter walked into the hotel. “She said her car is broken and ordered me to pick her up right away.” Caroline kept her tone flat. “Mom, I can’t possibly leave now to fetch her. I have a valid reason if she goes complaining to you.” Looking upset, Madam Fisher said, “Got it. I will talk to her if she comes to me. She does nothing all day long. You have to work, and we’re meeting an important client now.

    “Mom?” Celine was surprised to hear Madam Fisher’s voice over the phone. She took a whole different personality, making herself to be the victim as she answered, “Mom, Kevin pulled one on me. He deflated all my tires, and I’m stranded with the car. It’s hot outside. I wanted Caroline to pick me up. It won’t take her a lot of time to make a trip to Queen Enterprise anyway since it’s after work hours, and it won’t get in the way of her working overtime.” “Why did you get involved with Kevin again? Do you take my advice seriously? I told you not to get on Kevin’s nerves. He’s a York! Even I am courteous with Kevin. Who do you think you are to stir trouble with Kevin?” Madam Fisher let her anger rip. For once, she lost her patience with Celine. “Do you think you can bear the consequences of the York family going after our family? If that happens, don’t blame me for disowning you to save the family.” “Mom!”Celine thought she was hearing things. Was she talking to the moth

    “Of course, Caroline would take the opportunity to complain about you to your mom since you ordered her to pick you up while they were meeting a client. Considering Caroline just closed a huge deal, your mom is sure to show her some level of respect.”Celine was overwhelmed with jealousy. “Well, isn’t she lucky?” “I know, right.” Emma allowed jealousy to rear its ugly head too. If Caroline managed to establish herself, then Caroline would become the head of the family while her husband would be left out of the picture. Her husband had been slaving away for Fisher Enterprise, but in the end, all his work would be for Caroline’s benefit. That fact would not sit well with Emma and her husband. While the battle between the real and fake heiresses of the Fisher family was in full swing, Serenity was spoiled by everybody in Wiltspoon. After returning from FC Manor, Serenity rested for a couple of days before throwing herself back into work. Zachary did not stop her from goi

    “That’s right. The baby’s health is more important than gender. The York family has had sons for generations. They can’t blame you for not being able to birth a daughter. The deciding factor of a baby’s gender is the men anyway.”“Seren,” called a familiar voice.It was Grandma May.Elisa and Serenity looked toward the office door. They saw her entering with Mrs. Lane carrying a few insulated lunch boxes in her hands too. “What brings you here, Nana?”“Grandma May.”Serenity and Elisa stood. When Serenity spotted the lunch boxes Mrs. Lane was holding, she figured out why Grandma May had come. They were delivering food to her. The old lady smiled and said, “It’s noon. I don’t want you walking around because the weather’s scorching, so Cecilia and I are here to deliver some food for you to eat in the office. You can even take a rest after eating.”After speaking, she grinned at Elisa and said, “It’s been a while, Little Fireball.”Elisa grumbled unhappily, “I’m not little an

    Mrs. Lane placed the sour prune aside and said with a grin, “You can’t let Mr. York know of this, Mrs. York. Otherwise, he’ll deduct my bonus.“I prepared two desserts for you too. It’s not much, just two small pieces to satisfy your cravings.”Serenity watched as Mrs. Lane took one delicious dish after another out of the insulated lunch boxes and placed them on the office table. Then, she looked toward the desserts. She could finish those two small pieces of cake in a bite.She said, “The cakes are tiny, Mrs. Lane. There’s only one sour prune too. It’ll only worsen my cravings, not satisfy them. It’s too little.”Grandma May said, “Zack gave Mrs. Lane a special reminder because he was scared you would vomit. He also stressed that I shouldn’t spoil you by letting you eat sour or sweet food. He told me that you even vomited bile this morning.“You should be content that Mrs. Lane even brought you one sour prune.”Serenity said, “Okay. I’m content. One it is. It’s better than none.

    Serenity’s eyes gleamed after tasting the new dishes her sister had brought for her to try. Grandma May had the same reaction. After trying the new dish, she asked Liberty, “I’m going to sign up for a VIP membership at your restaurant and visit it every day. Your cooking skills have improved tremendously.”Serenity nodded while chewing. “Slow down, Seren. Don’t choke on the food.”Liberty smiled when she saw her sister enjoying the food so much. She said, “I signed up for culinary classes and practiced on my own after. Mr. Lewis was my taste tester. I brought these over for you all to try because he said they tasted great.“I feel reassured after hearing your comments, Grandma May.”“You’re the best, Liberty!”Serenity gave her sister a thumbs-up.Her sister was becoming a stronger, more successful woman. She had been an outstanding person from the start. Back then, she was blinded by love and foolishly resigned from her job to be a full-time housewife. She became so busy

    Duncan thought Liberty had gone to visit Hank at the hospital again. “I see. Is Serenity doing fine?”“She’s fine. Zachary said her morning sickness wouldn’t be as severe if she didn’t eat sour or sweet food.”Duncan smiled and said, “I didn’t know something like that was possible.“Zachary definitely won’t let Seren have sweet or sour food anymore. Otherwise, he’ll be worried sick when she vomits and can’t leave for work all day. Even if he’s at the company, his heart will stay with her.”That was what happened to him too. Although he had returned to the company to work, he would keep thinking about Liberty when it was almost time to get off work. Duncan only returned to the office occasionally to handle some matters. He would always head to Liberty’s new restaurant in the afternoon to try out her new menu. Liberty was his lunch provider. “I instructed them to leave some food for you before I came out, Mr. Lewis. You can take your time eating. I’ll head back later.”Dunca

    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
