“May I have your name?” Julian asked. Quinn gave him a business card. “My name’s Quinn Crawford. I’m a martial arts coach, but my students are all children.”Julian took her business card and kept it after reading it thoroughly. He gave her his business card too. However, his identity as a young master of the Buchams was not stated on the card. He simply introduced himself as the CEO of a random company he owned. Quinn received the card with both hands. After taking a look, she smiled and said, “Are you a CEO? The CEOs on TV always have a team of bodyguards with them. Why didn’t you bring a few bodyguards with you, Mr. Bucham?”Julian grinned. “I did have bodyguards with me for several years. However, some of them had to care for their elderly parents while others were forced by their parents to get married. They had no choice but to resign and return to their hometowns for marriage.“Therefore, I haven’t found any suitable bodyguards to replace the old ones.”Quinn did not a

Quinn was unaware of it. She did not even know that she had already fallen into Julian’s trap. On the way back to the hotel, the straightforward and eloquent Quinn had a pleasant conversation with Julian. It felt as if they had known each other for years instead of this being their first meeting. Julian had grown to like his fated partner more. As expected of his woman, Quinn was not only skilled in fighting but she was also outspoken and had a frank personality. A woman like her was suitable for him. “Since you’re a CEO, Mr. Bucham, did you have a chance to work with Mr. York? I’ve heard of Mr. York and his wife’s love story even though I was in Summervale.”Summervale was a small city that paled in comparison to Wiltspoon. It was a distance away from Wiltspoon too.Julian was not surprised that Quinn mentioned Zachary and Serenity. From his investigation, Quinn had a hobby of reading novels aside from coaching and exercising. His sister-in-law, Jasmine, shared the same

“Frankly speaking, even I want to hire you as my bodyguard. I’m short-staffed right now. With your skills, I believe you’ll be able to single-handedly ensure my safety.”Quinn said with a smile, “Don’t mention it, Mr. Bucham.”Julian did not have to call her his benefactor. He was the most polite person among all the people she had helped before. As expected of a CEO, he had good manners. Quinn could sense that Julian was a person who knew how to express gratitude. The heavens would bless someone like him. She believed his business would improve. “If I were to get tired of my job one day, please give me a job as a bodyguard, Mr. Bucham. I can be a security guard too. I won’t be picky about the job as long as I can earn money through my efforts. I can accept any job that’s legal and doesn’t involve stealing or robbing.”Quinn knew she had no other specialties aside from martial arts. Therefore, she was fine with any job as long as she could get one. Anyone could become an

Julian got out of the car and bid Quinn goodbye. He watched as she walked into Wiltspoon Hotel and only got back into the car after she disappeared from sight. Next, he took his phone and called his trusty assistant. The call connected and he asked, “How’s everyone’s injuries?”“Mr. Julian, our future missus was ruthless. Everyone has injuries of different severity and needs to be hospitalized.”Julian was happy when he heard his assistant addressing Quinn as the future missus. He liked the ring of it. She was destined to be his. Quinn was growing on Julian. The heavens have treated him well by leading such an outspoken girl to him. He finally had the chance to become a real man. However, he was older than her by ten years. Would Quinn dislike him for being too old?Julian had never felt old. Men his age were still at their primes. Moreover, he kept himself in good shape and looked like he was in his twenties. No one could tell that he was thirty-four years old from hi

The night passed and morning came.At East Hill Apartments, Liberty held Sonny’s bag as she walked to the door. She urged him, “Quick, Sonny. You’re going to be late.”Sonny was dawdling. He took his shoes from his room, sat on the sofa, and put them on slowly. “Can I not go to preschool today, Mom?”Before preschool started, Sonny had always thought going to preschool was fun. He had so much fun on registration day that he did not want to go home. He even cried when Liberty wanted to take him home. However, after some time, Sonny felt being at home was much more satisfying. If his Mom could not look after him, he could go to Aunt Ser’s place, Uncle Zak’s office, or Grandaunt Audrey’s home.All of those options were better than going to preschool. Most importantly, Sonny needed to wake up early every day to attend school. He could no longer sleep in as he did in the past. As Mom had to head to work, she would take him to preschool early in the morning. He was always the

Liberty hugged him back. She spoke gently, “I’ve neglected you and haven’t been accompanying you much because I’ve been too busy lately. Why don’t I take you to the seaside this weekend?”“Is Aunt Ser coming?”“We can invite her and Aunt Elisa too.”Sonny said happily, “Okay. I’m sorry, Mom. I won’t say anything about not wanting to go preschool anymore.”Liberty pulled away from him and smiled. “I’m happy you can understand me and correct your mistakes. You’re my good boy.”She then pecked his cheek and Sonny kissed her back. “Let’s go to preschool now, Mom.”Sonny pulled Liberty’s hand and walked toward the door. “I can carry my own bag, Mom.”Liberty passed the bag to him. He carried it and exited the house with her. Sonny waited as Liberty locked the door. Then, Liberty turned around and was about to hold Sonny’s hand when she saw a man looking at them from a distance. That man was the drunkard she bumped into in the elevator last night. The drunkard looked more

That lady immediately stood in front of Liberty to block the drunkard’s sight. Then, she pretended to chat with Liberty and asked, “The child’s dad is coming back soon, right?”Liberty replied, “Yes.”Hank would be discharged soon and he would be going home, but not to her place. They had been divorced for a year after all.The lady teased Sonny, “Do you miss your dad?”He replied honestly, “I do. My mom brought me to visit Dad last weekend.”The lady smiled, “Oh, you went to visit your dad.”Sonny nodded vigorously. Liberty knew the lady was doing it on purpose to let the drunkard know she had a man in her house who was about to return from a business trip and not to think about doing anything to her. The drunkard did not say anything upon hearing that. The elevator doors opened when it reached the first floor. The lady quickly pulled Liberty and Sonny out. The drunkard remained where he stood. When Liberty walked past, he whispered, “I looked for you all night. I know y

After a moment of silence, Liberty said, “Zachary gave a villa to us as a present. It’s a huge and pretty house, like the one Aunt Ser is living in now. I haven’t accepted it until now.“I’m working hard to earn more money to pay for your education and improve your living conditions. I want to become someone Serenity can rely on too. I feel like I’ll burden her if I keep accepting Zachary’s kindness.“People will think that we’re taking advantage of the Yorks just because Serenity has married into a wealthy family. If I work hard to earn money, I believe we can move into a villa with our abilities.“Dunc and Uncle Jul have a house in that neighborhood too. If we accept Serenity’s offer and move there, it’ll definitely be much safer than our current place. I’m also in a dilemma about whether to accept that house.“Your aunt will be worried about our safety if we tell her about the man we met earlier. Let’s not let her know, okay? She’ll get shocked if anything were to happen. She ha

Meanwhile, in a private room at Fortress Hotel in Jensburg, Caroline and Liberty stood up together and shook hands with their client, having successfully closed a business deal.The two of them escorted the client downstairs.After the client got into their car and left, Caroline turned to Liberty and said, “Liberty, it's getting late. Mr. Lewis is still waiting for you inside, so go get him and head home early to rest. The weather is really cold.“He still has trouble with his legs and isn’t used to the cold here, after all.”Duncan had caught a cold on his third day here.After seeing a doctor and taking medication, he was still coughing a little.Liberty did not move. Instead, she asked Caroline, “Are they making their move tonight?”“How would I know? They’ll act whenever they want. I’m just waiting. It’s likely to be soon, though. I’ve spread the word that Darren is on a business trip for half a month.”She did not want Liberty to worry, so she did not tell her that her fi

How long had it been since she last truly appreciated the night view of Satbury?Every day, she left home early and returned late, rushing from one place to another, with endless meetings, piles of documents to process, and countless business deals to negotiate.It always felt like there was not enough time.Before she knew it, time had flown by.It seemed just yesterday she had taken over the family business, but in the blink of an eye, several years had passed.Back when she first took over, many people had looked down on her, doubting her ability to manage the O'Connors’ vast empire. Many had wanted to devour the O'Connor family, to carve it up and take a share for themselves.Her parents’ generation was utterly mediocre, and after her grandparents passed away, they could not hold things together.As a result, the O'Connors’ family business declined and they lost a significant amount of money.On top of that, their extended relatives tried to exploit the situation, digging p

Isabella smiled, “Every time I hear you talk about your family, my heart gets restless, and I feel like going to meet them myself.”She even felt the urge to join their family, but she could not bring herself to say that out loud.Austin treated her very well. Tati said that when Austin looked at her, there was a sparkle in his eyes, and she kept saying that Austin had come here for her.Technically, Austin could indeed be considered to have come here for her, but it was really because of her picky palate and because she was hiring a private chef.To put it bluntly, Austin had come for the sake of culinary art.Sometimes, when Isabella locked eyes with Austin and saw him looking at her so intently, she could not help but wonder if he felt something for her.However, such thoughts were always quickly brushed aside.She and Austin were simply employer and employee.Austin treated her well because she was his employer. If there were any issues with the dishes he prepared, she coul

Austin smiled meaningfully, “My entire family will be very happy and warmly welcome you if you come with me to attend my nephew's sip-and-see shower.”In fact, his family would likely treat Isabella as his future wife, extending the kind of hospitality reserved for a daughter-in-law.However, Austin did not voice this thought.He and Isabella had not reached the stage where they could openly flirt like that.In any case, he was not in a hurry. Like a good stew, he would gradually win Isabella’s heart with time, and everything would fall into place naturally.“Your sister-in-law hasn’t given birth yet, so why are you already saying it’s a nephew?” Isabella teased belatedly. “Are you all hoping for a boy?“I heard from Ruth that your family elders are all hoping for a baby girl, though.”At the mention of that, Austin smiled wryly. “Ms. Fuller’s been to Wiltspoon and has heard about my family. She knows that our elders have always wanted a baby girl, so she must have also heard ot

Isabella asked, "When is your sister-in-law due?"She did not have a private chef who could fill in for Austin. If he took a leave of two or three days, she could manage, but if he requested a longer leave, she might not approve it.Zachary York’s wife was pregnant. Isabella had learned about the Yorks’ situation through a friend. Since she was Austin’s sister-in-law, it was natural for him, as the uncle, to want to go back and see his nephew.“I’m not sure. I asked my brother, and he said it might be in about two months. It could be earlier or later, it’s hard to say. I’ll go back when my sister-in-law is hospitalized. Once she’s discharged and returns home for postpartum recovery, it won’t be convenient to visit, so I’ll come back to work.“Then, when the baby is one month old, I’ll definitely go back for another couple of days. After all, he’ll be my first nephew and the eldest in the family’s new generation.”Isabella thought for a moment and said, “If it’s just two or three d

Austin knew she said that because she was afraid he would not agree, but how could he not? Rather, he wished for it.“Alright. If you don’t mind, I’ll eat with you from now on. Ms. Isabella, please go ahead and eat. I’ll quickly prepare some fruits for dessert.”Isabella glanced at him but said nothing and left.In the past, unless it was a social engagement, she would rarely have dessert.Usually, after finishing her meal, she would hurry back to her lounge to catch some rest, never bothering with fruits.Isabella realized belatedly that Austin had subtly influenced some of her small habits into changing.These small changes allowed her a bit more time to rest, which in turn improved her health.Soon, Austin came out.He had sliced some of the fruits and arranged them into the shape of a phoenix spreading its wings, while the smaller fruits were left whole to serve as the finishing touches.“In just this short time, you actually managed to create a phoenix,” Isabella praised.

“Isa has a networking event tonight, so she’ll be working overtime. You should bring her dinner.”“Sure.” Austin was here precisely to do that.Tati entered the elevator. When she turned around, she saw that Austin had already walked off.Tati chuckled to herself, “When will it be my turn to meet a good man who only has eyes for me?”Isabella had Austin now. Even though they had not officially started dating, they were clearly interested in each other. In the near future, they would definitely become a couple, and if both sides’ parents had no objection to it, they would eventually be a loving husband and wife.Though, at the thought of her family circumstances, Tati was still a little worried that Isabella and Austin might not get to that point.Isabella could not move far away after getting married as she still had to manage the family business. Her husband and her in-laws had to be understanding and tolerant of the fact that she would be very, very busy.They had all heard th

Isabella wanted to say something but ultimately decided against it. Tati had a point. She could push the boys too hard. They were still young, and they deserved a carefree and happy childhood. She had already put too much pressure on Louis and Phillip. “Austin accompanies the boys when he’s free. I think he’s great with kids. Maybe he has experience from babysitting in his family.”The York family had nine sons in their youngest generation and no daughters. Austin was the sixth in line with three younger brothers. Rowan was the youngest and still a minor. Thinking about it, he must have been raised by all his older cousins and brothers. No one understood how much pressure Rowan was under as he grew up. His older brothers were outstanding individuals. He would not have been that stressed if any of them were mediocre. He kept chasing after his brothers’ footsteps. He did not know when he could ever catch up to River and Austin. He would have to live with that pressure fo

“Isa, do you know many hotels and restaurants are waiting for you to switch Austin out? That way, they can snatch him away and make him their star chef.”With Austin’s culinary skills, he could be the head chef at any hotel.Isabella smiled. She said, “It depends on how much they can offer him. He already has his own hotels and restaurants. He’s already successful in the F&B industry.“How can they possibly hire him to be their chef? That’s unless Austin buys their hotel.“Besides, I haven’t gotten bored of Austin’s food. They’ll have to wait. “You can make a bet on whether Austin can last a full year as my private chef. I think you might win, but there’s always the possibility of losing.”There would always be wins and losses in a bet. Tati smiled. “Some people already made their bets. However, they betted on whether Austin could last for three months first. I guess those who put their money on him leaving before three months are up will lose.“For the second round, they’re
