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

    “Stop talking about this,” Hank scolded his sister. Chelsea pouted. Luke had to warn his daughter, “Don’t do anything stupid, Chelsea. I won’t let you off the hook if you cause trouble there.”Old habits died hard for his daughter. Her greed revealed itself again after her gratitude toward Liberty for rescuing Lucas at the zoo had dissipated. He was worried she would wreck the restaurant opening. Chelsea quickly said, “I dare not do anything, Dad. I don’t have a death wish. Look at Liberty’s status now. My own store will be destroyed if I sabotage hers. I’m not that silly.“I’m just envious. After all, we did contribute minorly to Liberty’s current success. If it weren’t for us, she wouldn’t have been able to be motivated and establish a career like this.”Chelsea’s shamelessness was truly off the charts. After listening to her, even her parents and brother felt she was shameless for flattering herself. “Hank, divorce that evil woman as soon as possible and get Liberty bac

    “Have some water, Dr. Carden.”Lilian accepted the drink. “Thank you, Rosella.”“I should be the one thanking you. My son had you come over just a month after you gave birth. I’m so embarrassed by that. I’ve already scolded Callum.”Lilian gulped down half the glass of water. She was thirsty.“It’s okay. I almost died of boredom while recuperating anyway. I’ve wanted to leave my home for some time, but my husband doesn’t allow it. He insisted that I have ample home rest to recover. I’m a doctor. I’m more knowledgeable than him on how to regain my good health after giving birth.“Mr. Callum cares deeply for his fiancée. He persistently invited me over to treat her eyes despite needing to bear my husband’s disdain. I was touched by his deep love and I’m more than happy to make this trip for Ms. Newman.“I hope I can treat her eyes and let her have a good look at her fiancé’s face.”Camryn was engaged to Callum, yet she did not know what he looked like. Lilian found it a pity.

    “Your health and spirits are as good as ever, Grandma May,” Lilian complimented,She had assessed the old lady’s health at FC Manor previously. Grandma May was as fit as a fiddle and could definitely live for another tens of years. Lilian’s mentor, the genius doctor, would live a long life too. He was especially healthy because he maintained his health through natural remedies consisting of precious medicinal plants. He also said he would try to live until he was 120 years old because he had more things to worry about. He wanted to see Oliver have a family of his own. Oliver was still a baby though. Grandma May held Lilian’s hand with a smile. “Lilian, does your mentor have any pills that can promote longevity? Can you give some to me? I want to be healthier and live longer. It’s best if I can live until the age of 120. It isn’t rare for someone to live past 100 years old now anyway.“I don’t know when I’ll be able to have a great-granddaughter. I need to hold her in my arms.

    Camryn had been blind for many years. During those years, she had followed Evelyn to seek treatment at various places. They even turned to religion to pray for a cure before. Nevertheless, every attempt came to a dead end. They had failed so many times that Camryn no longer dared to harbor hope. She knew Dr. Carden was everyone’s last shot at curing her eyes.Camryn could handle being disappointed alone if the outcome was undesirable. She was used to it anyway. However, it seemed like everyone would have to experience that disappointment with her. “Don’t be scared.”Callum threw his arms open and hugged Camryn tightly. After releasing her, he softly kissed her forehead. “Don’t worry. I’m here with you.”Camryn raised her head toward Callum and tried to look at his face. However, her vision was still a blur. She could not see him clearly. His words, hug, and kiss brought a river of warmth to her heart. Suddenly, she did not feel nervous anymore. She nodded lightly. Call

    “I haven’t met Dr. Carden. I happened to be on a business trip when she came. Callum had just brought me back. We’re at his house and about to meet Dr. Carden soon.”Trenton was still worried about her and this made Camryn happy. “No matter the result, don’t give up. If Dr. Carden can’t do anything, we can look for a better doctor,” Trenton reassured her.Everyone knew that Camryn would not be able to regain her sight if even Dr. Carden could not treat her eyes. Dr. Carden was the miracle healer’s disciple and he was legendary because his skills were undoubtedly the best. After a moment of silence, Camryn consoled her brother in return, “I won’t be sad, Trenton. I can accept any result. I’ve gotten used to living in darkness after so many years. It’s just a pity that Callum has to marry me, a blind person, despite being such an outstanding person himself.”“Camryn.”Callum said, “I don’t feel aggrieved at all. Since the day I fell in love with you, I’ve decided to marry you a

    Dr. Carden’s name was well-known. Those who have not seen her before thought a doctor skilled in both medicine and toxicology with a good reputation would be middle-aged. “Dr. Carden, this is my fiancée, Camryn Newman,” Callum introduced. Lilian knew right away that Camryn was the patient when she saw Callum assisting an unfamiliar woman walking in. “Ms. Newman.”Lilian knew Camryn relied on her hearing to determine a person’s location. Therefore, she greeted Camryn. Camryn had been facing the stairs after she entered the house. She turned to Lilian’s direction upon hearing her voice. A smile appeared on her beautiful face. “Nice to meet you, Dr. Carden.”“Come here and sit, Ms. Newman. I’ll conduct a basic examination.”Lilian did not hesitate to ask Callum to help Camryn walk over and sit beside her. She would be conducting some simple checkups on Camryn. Callum quickly aided Camryn to walk over. Even Grandma May, who had been sitting beside Lilian, made way for Camr

    Fortunately, Quinn herself was strong, and her family was not pushovers either. She turned to look at Julian.Without asking, Julian knew exactly what she was thinking, and he quickly reassured her, “Quinn, you don’t have to worry. That kind of thing won’t happen to us. I’m your rock. As long as I’m around, no one can bully you. In my family, apart from my parents, everyone else has to accede to me, and you know how my parents feel about you. They’re so grateful to you that they practically worship you like a goddess.“You’re familiar with the York family now and have seen the way they operate, right? Well, my family and the Yorks are old family friends. Birds of a feather flock together. The reason our two families are so close is we have similar family values.“Setting aside the fact that your family is powerful enough and supportive of you—even if you were like Serenity in the beginning, my family would never look down on you or mistreat you. They would only love and cherish you.

    Stacy was actually hoping that Julian and Quinn could get their marriage license today and hold the wedding right away. However, the date they had picked was after Christmas and they still had to wait over a month for the actual wedding. At least once they signed the papers, there was no need to worry about Quinn changing her mind. Stacy was afraid that Quinn and her family might have second thoughts, especially since her son was afflicted with a disorder.“Hey, sweetie.”When Stacy addressed Quinn, her tone was very gentle. Quinn thought that her future mother-in-law was even kinder and more considerate than her own mother. Her father had looked into the Buchams' character and knew that Stacy was actually quite formidable. To Quinn though, Stacy appeared so gentle and kind that she did not seem like the kind of person who would be overly strict or tough. Of course, anyone who could hold fast the position of the Buchams’ head missus and secure her husband’s love for decades as if

    Quinn could not stop laughing when she saw him.Julian blushed a little in response. He asked, “What are you laughing at? Is my outfit ugly? Does it not look good?”He was used to wearing black clothes all the time. Although he had a white suit, he rarely wore it. Today, for the special occasion of legally getting married to Quinn, he had specifically chosen to wear white, a color symbolizing purity, to proclaim how his feelings were as pure as snow.“It’s not ugly, it looks great! You look even more handsome than usual. I’m just not used to seeing you in a white suit. Now, you look like a prince from a fairy tale—my prince.”Julian smiled indulgently. “That’s right. I’m your prince charming and yours alone. You look great in white, too, my dear wife.”It was Quinn’s turn to blush slightly. She was not used to being called his wife, especially since they had not even registered yet. Since they were about to go get their marriage license though, she might as well start getting used

    Serenity laughed and said, “I hope I’ll be toasting at your wedding soon.”Peter replied, “I think I'll get married before Dylan does.”Dylan’s romantic path had been much more complicated because he had not wanted to follow the smooth, well-paved road that Grandma May had arranged for him.“We have lots of happy occasions lined up after Christmas, then,” Camryn remarked.“Yes, lots,” Serenity agreed.The courtyard was lively, with the elders occasionally joining in on the fun. Meanwhile, inside the house, Dylan was thinking about what Serenity had told him. She had repeatedly said that the person Grandma May picked for him would definitely be the right one, someone who would suit him well.She also suggested that he look into Imogen and that there might be a pleasant surprise in store for him, but that he was not to let Imogen know. The implication in Serenity’s words was that Imogen might be Fox and that Fox’s real identity was Imogen Doyle herself.After understanding Serenit

    Dylan frowned as he pondered deeply.“The scent from outside is wafting in. I think the food’s ready. I’m going out to have a couple of skewers to satisfy my cravings. You can stay here and think things through.”Seeing that Dylan had finally grasped the main point, Serenity stopped the conversation and went out to have some barbecue. It had been a long time since she had eaten barbecue.After getting pregnant, although she was not as strictly monitored as Jasmine was, she still paid close attention to her diet and would do her best to avoid things she could not eat or had to limit. Liberty called her every few days to remind her to be careful.When Zachary saw Serenity come out of the house, he immediately picked up a plate of freshly grilled skewers to his beloved wife, saying, “I deliberately used less seasoning on these for you, so you can eat them with peace of mind. Sonny’s asleep now, right?” “He fell asleep long ago, after playing so hard today,” Serenity replied, then gr

    In that case, Grandma May would not even need to step in to teach him a lesson. His older brothers would beat him up multiple times for tarnishing the York family’s reputation and dragging their names in the mud with his own.“Dylan, I told you that if you didn’t trust Nana, you’d face the consequences. Look, you’re starting to suffer now, aren’t you?” Serenity said. Who was Grandma May? She was a kind-hearted but cunning old fox who could sell someone out and still make them feel grateful for it as they counted the money she made for her. How could she pick a bad match for her grandsons? There was no way they would be unsuitable. “Serenity, it’s not that I don’t trust Nana, it’s just that I really couldn’t fall in love with Imogen. I feel like if I couldn’t fall for her in almost three months then I just won’t. And I always thought about Fox when I was with Imogen. I’m not some naïve kid who doesn’t understand what that means.” Dylan smiled bitterly. His family always compla

    “Callum and Camryn came with Trenton, so they’re all having a barbecue together.”Serenity hummed in response. She closed the door to Sonny's room and said to Dylan, “Is it something you don’t want Zachary to know? If so, let’s go to his study to talk." “It’s not that. It’s fine if he knows, but I’ve talked to him, and he couldn’t be bothered. Then I asked Julian, but he said he was busy. He’s taking Ms. Crawford to register their marriage tomorrow. I just wanted a little help from him; I didn’t need him to do it personally.” Dylan grumbled a little about Julian being unhelpful.If Julian could hear this, he would retort, “Why should I help you? Even Zachary isn’t that demanding.”If it were not for the fact that Zachary and his cousin, Josh, were best buddies, Julian would not be so obliging either. Among the Yorks, Grandma May was the person the Buchams most respected. Of course, if it were something important, the Bucham family would definitely help, but Dylan’s request se

    “I haven’t felt like snacking lately.”“Is the stuff made at home not to your taste anymore?” Whenever Serenity said she did not want to eat something she usually loved, Zachary would wonder if it was because the chef’s skills had declined, causing his beloved wife to lose her appetite. “It’s not that, I just don’t feel like eating them. I think maybe the baby is like you and doesn’t like sweets.”Zachary smiled. “If our son is like me, that’s fine. He’ll be steady, and in the future, the two of us will protect you.” If they had a daughter, he hoped she would be like Serenity. If she had his personality… Well, it would not be the most charming. Zachary wanted his daughter to be very likable. “I don’t need you guys to protect me, I can protect myself.”“Honey, don’t say that. I’m your husband, your man. You have to give me a chance to show off, or else people will say you married a useless husband. That would be so unfair to me.”Serenity chuckled.“Do you want to go watch So

    “I can be just as considerate and attentive to you.”Quinn looked at him and could not help but laugh. “I don't mean anything else by that, you don’t need to be so defensive.”“You envy Serenity,” Julian said. “I don't want you to envy anyone. I want you to be someone others envy.”Uh, this sounded exactly like something Zachary would say. It looked like, occasionally, he really had learned a thing or two from Zachary.Quinn instantly felt smitten. She looped her arm through Julian's and whispered, “I already am someone others envy. I’m not envious of Serenity—I was just making an observation. They say Mr. Zachary dotes on his wife, and Serenity is very lucky. Now that I’ve witnessed it with my own eyes, I believe it. So, I genuinely sighed with admiration. I know I’m very lucky as well. You treat me so well, and I am content. I really don’t envy anyone.”The young couple’s conversation went unnoticed by Zachary. He waited for his wife to settle before answering a call from Dylan.
