Chapter 2384

Author: Gu Lingfei
Things would have been different if so. Belinda only had one option now—Caroline.

Moments later, Celine barged in.

Belinda frowned upon seeing her adopted daughter while she was reminiscing about her past. Frustration overtook her expression, and she said, “How many times have I told you to knock before entering? You never listen.”

The daughter she had spent much effort raising did not even have basic etiquette.

She had spoiled Celine rotten.

Belinda was glad that Celine was not her biological daughter. Otherwise, she would have been angered to death upon seeing the successor she spent over two decades nurturing being such a failure.”

“Sorry, Mom. I forgot.”

Celine immediately went out and closed the door. Then, she knocked on the door again and only entered after obtaining Belinda’s permission.

She sat opposite Belinda.

“I want to ask you something, Mom. Did our family receive the York family’s invitation?”

Since Celine could not attend the wedding as Hayden’s partner,

    “You look great. My daughter is always beautiful,”“Mom, I need new clothes to go with this new necklace.”Belinda smiled. “You have plenty of new clothing in your dressing room. Some of those have never been worn.”That being said, she still handed a card to Celine and said, “You can buy whatever you want. Cheer up.”Celine perked up upon receiving the card.“Thanks, Mom. You’re the best.”“You grew up by my side. Even if we’re not blood-related, I’ve always treated you as my own. Even Caroline doesn’t get such good treatment from me.”“But you allowed Caroline to chase me out of the company and stopped me from returning to work.”Belinda’s smile disappeared. She said strictly, “Celine, you should be grateful that I allowed you to keep Fisher as your last name instead of reverting it to your father’s. Stop desiring more. Don’t forget that if it weren’t for your father’s ambitions, Caroline wouldn’t have grown up in a farming village.“You stole everything that should’ve belon

    Celine alighted the car and walked toward her mother. She pushed her and scolded, “Are you crazy? Even if you wish to die, don’t do it under my car and dirty it.“If you were to die because I couldn’t hit the brakes in time, what would people say about me? They’ll say I look down on the poor, and that I would rather stay with my adoptive mother than my birth mother for that very reason.”The woman’s gaze was fixed on Celine. She was no different from any other mothers who would never not miss their child.Carmen had always known that her daughter was the Fisher family’s successor. However, the truth was exposed just when she thought her husband’s scheme would succeed. Although Carmen was disappointed, her daughter could finally return to her side. With the education and training Celine had received from the Fishers, her daughter could bring their family out of poverty. Unfortunately, Celine refused to return while Caroline went back to the Fishers too. It was as if Carmen ha

    Celine said coldly, “Spend this money on nicer clothes. Stop dressing up like an old-fashioned farmer. Oh, but you’re already one. Take the money and get lost. Never, ever, appear before me again.”After saying her piece, Celine walked to her car and drove off. Carmen was left crying on the street. Her biological daughter hated her. She knew she could not compare to Belinda Fisher. It was all that woman’s fault for snatching her daughter away. While crying, Carmen picked up the cash and started counting it on the spot. Her tears gradually stopped flowing as she counted the money. Celine often had about ten thousand dollars in cash inside her wallet. With a casual throw, Carmen obtained quite a lot of money. As a farmer’s wife, it was a cash windfall. She thought of Caroline, who had grown up in her home. The same girl had already become Belinda’s successor and snatched everything that was supposed to be inherited by Celine. Carmen resented Caroline for that. She go

    Quinn was unaware she was Julian’s destined woman, the only one he was attracted to, and nobody else.“I just arrived, Ms. Crawford,” replied Julian with a smile. Seeing his hands full, Quinn said, “You could’ve come without bringing anything along.”“It’s my first time meeting my coach. It’s only appropriate to prepare some gifts. I can’t possibly come empty-handed.”Quinn smiled. “Are you so confident my dad will accept you as his student? Let’s go. My house is nearby. You can have a meal at my house and meet my dad. We can see if he’s willing to take you in.”“Sounds great.”Quinn led Julian to her house. “Didn’t you say you would be Mr. York’s groomsman? Why are you here?” she asked while she took some of the load Julian was carrying.She had just returned from Wiltspoon two days ago. Looking at the stuff he brought, she told him, “You bought so many expensive gifts. It must’ve cost a lot.”The cigarettes, alcohol, and supplements Julian bought were from well-known bra

    Quinn brought Julian to her house. It was not far from Power Fitness, and she met many acquaintances along the way. They saw Quinn walking beside a handsome man who was holding lots of stuff. They naturally assumed that Julian was Quinn’s boyfriend. “Is this your boyfriend, Ms. Crawford? He’s handsome.”“Is he your boyfriend, Quinn? To think your parents were worried you couldn’t get married. I told them not to worry because there’s no way you can’t get married with your looks.”“Your parents will be happy that you’re bringing a man home. They won’t have to worry anymore.”The parents of Quinn’s students or her neighbors would greet her and ask about her and Julian’s relationship. Quinn quickly explained to one of her neighbors, “This is Mr. Bucham. He’s here to learn martial arts from my dad.”Mrs. Patterson said, “Oh, I thought he was your boyfriend.”After glancing at Julian, she pulled Quinn aside and whispered, “I recognize all of your father’s students, Quinn, but this

    On the other hand, Julian would not tell Quinn about his illness if she had no feelings for him. She was the only one for him. “My guess was right. However, you should really take action soon to relieve your parents of their anxiety,” Quinn said.“While my parents don’t often urge me to get married, my brothers have it worse. They even wear earplugs at home to avoid listening to my parents’ nagging.“My brothers are too picky. Whenever they’re introduced to a girl, they would find the girl too weak for their liking. They want someone who’s on par with them in martial arts. My dad was so furious that he wanted to beat them up.”Julian could not resist laughing. “It’s normal for your brothers to think that way. After all, they’ve been training since they were young, and most of their friends were likely skilled in martial arts too. It’s normal for them to want a wife who knows how to fight.“Do you wish to look for a boyfriend trained in martial arts too?”After briefly consider

    “We’re here. This is my home.” Quinn led Julian into a house that was built by hand. It has a yard too. Julian knew where the Crawfords lived. In fact, he had done his homework on his future in-laws. The Crawfords were not super wealthy in Summervale, but their family gym was well-known. Still, the Crawfords were more well-off than most families. They owned the house on the street and a few properties elsewhere. The Crawfords bought the land for Power Fitness. Dave, Quinn’s father, planned to leave the family home to the firstborn son as his son could take over managing the gym. The other properties would be split between his youngest and Quinn. If Dave could make enough money for another property, he would buy another piece of land and build his own house. That way, he would have more properties to share among his children and benefit from the rental income.The Crawfords’ house was wider than the neighbors'. There was an arbor covered in flowers at the front door, wh

    Dave pulled himself together and got acquainted with Julian through Quinn’s introduction. Then, he courteously welcomed Julian into the house. Quinn’s brothers, Will and Mark, had not returned home. Julian stepped into the house and put down the gifts he brought. Dave asked him to have a seat and said, “You didn’t have to, Mr. Bucham.” “Your daughter saved me. I was nearly robbed on my way home from an event. Your daughter happened to come by the same way and beat up the robbers. She even called the cops for me. “I’m sorry to intrude, Mr. Crawford.” Dave smiled at the mention that Quinn had saved Julian. He said, “We always help out when we can. It was no biggie. You don’t have to get us anything when you visit.” “Why don’t you serve our guest a drink, Quinn?” Zoey emerged from the kitchen in an apron. Quinn introduced Julian to her mother. Julian stood up as Zoey approached. After Quinn’s introduction, he politely said hello. Zoey did not hear the conversation t

    Immediately, someone brought a large cup of water for Dylan. Imogen took the cup and handed it to him, urging him to drink. Dylan accepted the cup and drank it all in one go, which eased the spiciness in his mouth a little. “Imogen, your cousin said I need to finish these peppers, but I haven’t even eaten half yet.” Dylan looked at the basket of peppers and saw that he had not eaten even half of them. He had never eaten this much spice in his life. Right now, his throat felt like it was on fire, and his voice was hoarse. The intense heat was affecting him badly.If this had happened in Wiltspoon where the climate was warmer, after eating so many peppers, his throat would have been terribly inflamed, and he probably would have an upset stomach and a serious case of indigestion. Then, he would be stuck in the toilet for half a day.However, since it was cold in Huntington, eating a little chili every day was not a problem, though not as much as Dylan had just eaten. His stomach

    “Did you need me for something, Layla?” Imogen, despite being in a rush to stop Dylan from continuing to eat the chili peppers, asked Layla.“Of course, I came to talk to you about work,” Layla replied.“But the discussion might take a while. Are you going to discuss work with me first, or go downstairs to stop Dylan from eating more peppers first?”Imogen hesitated for a moment but decided to stop Dylan first. Layla guessed that her cousin would choose Dylan and sighed inwardly. Imogen was already wrapped around Dylan's finger. However, Dylan had not entirely escaped Imogen’s influence either. Though he had not fallen in love with Imogen herself, he had fallen for her alter ego, who was still her cousin in the end.Fortunately, the woman Dylan loved was her cousin's alias. If he had chosen another woman, Layla would never have allowed her cousin to take him back. The Doyle ladies did not settle for second place.“Layla, give me about ten minutes.”“Alright, I’ll wait for you

    It was already so spicy, there was no way it could get worse. Thus, following his family's advice, he began grabbing huge handfuls of chili peppers and stuffed them into his mouth. The heat made his eyes water, and it felt like his mouth was swelling from the spice. Imogen also saw the comments and watched as Dylan continued to eat the peppers in large mouthfuls. She turned off the livestream, not wanting to keep watching. However, her heart was in such a mess that she could not focus on her work. A few minutes later, she tossed her pen aside, pushed her chair away from the table as she stood up, and walked out quickly. She ran into Layla as soon as she left the office.“Layla,” Imogen called out. “You heading out?” To be honest, Layla knew the answer without asking. “He’s eaten quite a lot of chili peppers already. He doesn’t usually eat spicy food. And eating so much at once will harm his stomach.” Imogen still felt sorry for Dylan. Layla smiled, “If you're worried

    The security guard brought out a basket and handed it to Dylan.Dylan took the basket and poured the bag of chili peppers into it. Next, following the live broadcast team’s instructions, he walked in front of the camera and said, “Last year, I unintentionally hurt Imogen’s pride. It was my fault, and I apologize to her.“Imogen doesn’t have time to deal with me, but Ms. Layla Doyle said that as long as I eat chili peppers on this livestream, she’ll allow me to come here every day to wait for Imogen. I’m afraid of spicy food and usually don’t eat anything spicy at all.“But for the sake of seeing Imogen and having a chance to get her forgiveness, I’m willing to accept Ms. Layla’s challenge and eat these chili peppers.”The live broadcast team was at a loss for words.Layla had not prepared a script for Dylan, but he went ahead and explained the backstory. Was that okay?Someone secretly messaged Layla to ask for her opinion. Her reply was to allow Dylan to say whatever he wanted a

    Isabella had invited him to sit at the dining table and eat with them, but Austin refused. He said he was the chef, so he could just have his breakfast in the kitchen.He always remembered his position as Isabella's personal chef and did not let the fact that the others saw him in a more favorable light now go to his head and cross the line. His adherence to his principles and awareness of his position only made Isabella respect him more.Though he was one of the extremely affluent Yorks, after accepting the job as her private chef, he completely discarded his identity as a rich heir and earnestly took on the role of her personal chef.By the time Austin finished his breakfast, Isabella and the two young boys had also finished eating. He came out to clear the table.Phillip slid off his chair and said to Louis, “Isa’s passing by my preschool today. She said she’ll take me there.”He was showing off. Sure enough, Louis looked enviously at his sister. Isabella did not even glance

    Austin placed the two breakfast portions on the dining table and then walked over to Isabella, who was still reading the newspaper. “Ms. Isabella, breakfast is ready.”“I’m coming, I’m coming.” Louis’s voice came from the stairs. Then, they saw him quickly running down the stairs with his schoolbag in one hand.“Louis!” Isabella called out.Louis immediately stopped, then picked up his schoolbag to carry it on his back before slowly descending the stairs step-by-step, no longer daring to run.The two boys really did have very similar personalities.“Good morning, Isa. Good morning, Austin.”Louis walked over to Isabella’s side and respectfully greeted them.“If I ever see you running down the stairs again, I’ll punish you by making you miss a week of eating Austin’s meals.”“Isa, a week is too long!” Louis instinctively tried to negotiate.“You still dare to bargain with me, huh? That shows you don’t want to change. In that case, I’ll make it a whole month.”Louis was speec

    “Isa, Austin promised me that he would make cartoon-shaped snacks for us this Saturday. You won’t mind, right? I’ve already told my classmates, and they’re all coming to our house!”The little boy was also concerned about his image. He was afraid his serious eldest cousin would refuse, and if that happened, he would be so embarrassed. After all, after Austin promised him, the other kids at preschool treated him so well. They all wanted to try the cartoon-shaped snacks Austin made. However, since Austin was Isabella’s private chef, if Isabella did not agree, there would be nothing even Austin could do about it.Isabella lightly pinched Phillip’s cheek. “Since Austin’s promised, he’ll keep his word. I’ll be resting at home this weekend and won’t stop you, but don’t make a racket here. Go do it at your own house. I need to rest.”“Thanks, Isa! I’ll tell my friends not to disturb your rest. Isa, has Louis not woken up yet?”With Isa’s promise, Phillip’s little face lit up with a smil

    Upon hearing that Phillip might be coming, Louis moved much faster.Isabella did not wait for her brother. She said, “Head downstairs by yourself later, and make sure to check your schoolbag to see if you’ve packed your books and water bottle.”She would not help her brother check those things. Every day, she made sure her brother checked everything himself because it was his responsibility. If their parents or employees tried to help, she would scold them.Now, their parents no longer dared to help Louis with things he could do himself. They let her take charge of him. Her parents had Louis when they were in their forties, and he was their only son. If they were the ones raising him, Isabella was sure her brother would have been spoiled beyond reason.“I know, Isa,” Louis replied, already starting to brush his teeth.After leaving her brother’s room, Isabella headed downstairs. As soon as she reached the first floor, she saw Phillip running in with his little schoolbag on his

    Isabella patiently said, “No, you can’t. If you sleep for ten more minutes, time will be too tight, and we’ll hit the worst of rush hour when everyone’s heading to school or work. There’ll be too much traffic and you’ll be late. You mustn’t be late.” If her brother was constantly late, he would get used to it and start liking to sleep in. Isabella would not let him develop such a bad habit.“Isa, I won’t be late. Every day when I arrive at school, there are still plenty of classmates who haven’t arrived. I can just tell the driver to speed up.”“Absolutely not! It’s not safe to drive too fast. It doesn’t matter if the other students are late, but you can’t be late. Get up now, or I’m going to get angry.”Louis pouted.Amused, Isabella pinched his lips, saying, “Come on, get up. In two more days, it will be the weekend, and you’ll get another two days off.”“This holiday was too short.”Under his sister’s urging, Louis reluctantly sat up. “It feels like we just got let out for w
