Chapter 245

Author: Gu Lingfei
Zachary quietly looked at Serenity.

He had not seen her for two days and suddenly felt that he liked seeing her face.

The couple stared at each other.

In the end, Serenity broke the silence. “Wash your hands and help me bring the dishes out. They’re ready to serve.”

Zachary neither refused nor explicitly agreed. He pursed his thin lips and asked in a low voice, “Why did you buy so much seafood?”

That was because he did not receive any notice of expenditure from the bank.

Did Serenity buy all the seafood from her own pockets?

Although they were at an impasse, Zachary still felt that it was his duty as a husband to support the family.

“How much did they cost? I’ll transfer the money to you later. I agreed to pay for the living expenses.”

Serenity turned to look at the seafood feast she prepared. She then smiled and explained, “It didn’t cost a cent. Ms. Stone brought these back from her beach vacation and gave me aplenty. When you send Nana home later, you can bring some back t

    Seeing that Zachary had not left yet, Serenity turned his head and asked him, “What’s wrong?”Zachary pursed his lips and said, “Nothing… I’ll go back to the office first.”“Okay.” Serenity responded casually, then turned her head back to cleaning the dishes.After taking a long stare at Serenity’s back, Zachary turned around and walked out of the kitchen.Grandma May was playing with Sonny. When she saw her grandson coming out of the kitchen, she looked displeased and said, “Zack, why didn’t you help Serenity with the dishes? She has been busy all morning and must be very tired.”The York men loved their wives dearly. Grandma May saw that her sons were considerate and fond of her daughters-in-law.So why was it that her grandson was so inconsiderate to her granddaughter-in-law?“Serenity doesn’t need my help.

They were two peas in a pod.The tackiest way to coax a girl was to give her money.When Zachary was in the store, he told Serenity they could not accept Elisa’s seafood for free.

However, Serenity refuted so righteously that he was speechless.They deleted each other’s WhatsApp, and Serenity blocked his number.If Serenity could not reply to his messages, how could Zachary send her money and make it rain?Zachary regretted that he acted petty.

    “Liberty's fat and ugly. She’ll only embarrass me if I take her there. Everyone will laugh at me.”After Hank finished speaking, he pinched Jessica’s pretty face and praised her, “How can she compare to you, Jessica? You’re the apple of my eye now, and I don’t have any feelings for her anymore.“I can’t forgive her for chasing me down the block with a kitchen knife. Although she apologized and treated me better than before, I just couldn’t forgive her. If I didn’t run fast enough that day, she would’ve stabbed me to death!“She’s vicious. I’ve known her for so many years and only realized how vicious she was that day. If it wasn’t for Sonny, I wouldn’t want to go back to that house. Besides, my mother and my sister mentioned that I bought the house before marriage where I paid the down payment and am paying the mortgage, so why should I let her live there?“She doesn’t have a good relationship with my family. Jessica, you’ve met my parents and sister. What do you think of them?”J

    Hank immediately stopped working and brought Jessica out.He was the manager, and Jessica was his secretary. Usually, Hank would take Jessica with him whenever he went out for business, so no one would say anything when the two of them left the office together.The janitor saw Hank driving away with Jessica at the entrance of the office and said to an old security guard, “Mr. Brown and Ms. Yates go in and out together all day long. Is Liberty not worried that Mr. Brown will cheat on her?”Liberty used to work in the same office as Hank, so the old employees still remembered her.The old security guard looked at the janitor oddly.After looking around to make sure that no one else was there, the security guard lowered his voice and said to the janitor, “You clean the office every day and go through the whole building. Don’t you know what happened? Mr. Brown and Ms. Yates are having an affair. How could you not know about it?”The janitor was surprised and asked with interest, “How

    In the evening, when the work day was about to end, Josh knocked on the door to the CEO’s office and entered, carrying a stack of documents in his arms.Zachary raised his head and eyed him for a second before he returned to his work. After Josh sat down, Zachary remarked, “What use is your secretary?”“She’s pregnant! I’m being considerate of her. I don’t want her to run back and forth and tire herself out. Her husband might come looking for me then. So I did it myself.”Josh placed the stack of documents in front of his good friend.“I’ve looked through them. There’s no problem with them, so you just have to sign them.”After he set the documents down, he got up to pour himself a glass of water. He sat back down and proceeded to drink his water while looking at the man sitting opposite him.Zachary was extremely handsome. Even if his face was tense all day in a cold and serious expression, it wasn’t enough to mask his handsome exterior.In this age and day where looks were eve

    “Want to come along?”No matter where it was, wherever Zachary lived, there would be a large collection of fine wines.“No, thanks. I’m scared of getting drunk again. When you get drunk, you have your wife to take care of you. I am but a single dog. No one would take care of me even if I got alcohol poisoning and died.”“You make yourself seem so pitiful. You could go on a blind date too and have a shotgun marriage to get a wife to take care of you.”Josh chuckled. “With you as a precedent, I think I’d better obediently wait for my fate to come around.”“What’s wrong with me? I’m doing just fine!”“Sure, sure. You’re doing just fine. So much so that your expression hasn’t warmed a single degree for the past few days. Your work efficiency has increased a lot, but you’ve made life harder for those under you. These few days, more and more people have automatically volunteered to work overtime even into the wee hours.”York Corporation would not force its employees to work overtime.

    Josh was not surprised that Hank Brown was having an affair.He said, “That sister-in-law of yours changed too much after getting married. When Hank Brown got promoted, he probably thought any other woman would be a better match than her. As time passed, he began losing interest in her.”Zachary’s gaze was cold, and so was his tone of voice. “Why did she change? Because she loved him. She gave birth to a child for him without a care for how her body would change. And to let him focus on his work, she single-handedly raised the kid and took care of the whole household alone. She gave up her youth and her beauty for him.”While Zachary knew that Liberty looked different after her marriage, that was not an excuse for Hank to have an affair. Ruthlessness had long lurked within Hank, but it just had not had the chance to make its appearance before this. Now that he was doing well in his job, he was arrogant and started to look down on his wife, treating her with disgust. If Hank was

    Twenty million dollars!It was the Clark brothers’ turn to exchange glances. They did not expect Jacob and Michael to name such a high price. While they could pay that amount, they did not want to hand the money to Jacob and Michael. After all, it was no longer a small sum to them, given their situation. Adrian was nervous that he would have to fork out the money himself. While he had significantly more assets than an ordinary person, most were fixed assets, and he only had a few tens of millions of savings. Therefore, he was unwilling to pay twenty million dollars out of the blue. After exchanging glances, Adrian said, “Twenty million is too much. We don’t have that much. We may be wealthy people to you, but it’s all fake. We aren’t as rich as you think.“You’re aware of the Fishers family rules—only daughters can be the successors. Sons can’t even take on the Fisher surname, let alone inherit the family assets.“When my mom was alive, she would support us financially in

    “If the plan fails, we have a backup plan—hit her bodyguards’ car and force her car to stop. That way, you two can take Caroline away and leave the rest up to us.”Adrian was prepared for various scenarios.If the car accident did not succeed, then they would first eliminate Caroline’s bodyguards. Without them, and with Darren on a business trip, they could easily take down Caroline, who did not know how to fight. After kidnapping her, they would kill and cut her to pieces before throwing her into the sea. No one would be able to find her. If Caroline were dead, the inheritance from Belinda would belong to the Clark brothers. They still could not take over Fisher Enterprise and the Fisher family or do anything to Liberty. However, with Caroline dead, there would be no one to teach the new and inexperienced Liberty. Whether Liberty could hold her ground was an unknown variable. After a discussion between Adrian and his brothers, they set two goals. Firstly, they would kill Car

    “Caroline will definitely receive retribution for this.”Adrian said with spite, “I shall see how she meets her death. The people in Wiltspoon will kill her sooner or later.“Does she think they’ll treat her well just because she betrayed her family? They despise us. She’s still my parents’ biological daughter. There’s no way she can be spared.”“You’re absolutely right.”The three men kept cursing Caroline throughout their journey. Upon arriving at Adrian’s villa, he parked the car. Jacob and Michael looked around after getting out of the vehicle. They thought Adrian’s place was luxurious. Adrian mentioned it was a small place, but it was already a lavish place to them. It was many times bigger than their house in the countryside. Adrian invited Jacob and Michael into the villa and they followed suit.Jacob whispered to Michael, “The Clark brothers are fighting with Caroline for the inheritance, Michael. They must be up to no good, calling us here.“No matter what request

    “Although Caroline is our biological sister, she doesn’t treat us as her brothers. We only recognize Celine as our sister. I really wish we could turn back time.“We shouldn’t have allowed Caroline to return to the Fisher family. Ever since she came back, the family had been declining. Many things had happened. My mom’s dead, and my dad’s crippled. All of these are related to her.“Caroline’s an ungrateful bitch. I can’t believe she sided with the people from Wiltspoon. Even now, she’s constantly in contact with them and giving away Fisher Enterprise.“It should’ve belonged to Celine.”Jacob and Michael stayed quiet. They had known for a long time that their biological sister was not Caroline but Celine, the then-successor of the Fisher family. Therefore, they treated Caroline badly and often abused her.Although Caroline had learned to put up resistance after growing up, she was still bullied by Jacob and Michael.She hated them. She did not know the truth in the past and

    The two men were Celine’s biological brothers, Jacob and Michael Dott. Adrian nodded. “That’s good to hear. Grieving is useless. Avenging Celine and seeking justice is more important.”Jacob and Michael remained silent. They could not do much. When their father was still the Fishers’ butler, he received a high salary with excellent benefits; the Dotts were the wealthiest family in their town. Since their family was rich, the brothers never put effort into studying. They spent time with questionable friends and led a life of debauchery. Jacob and Michael only matured after marrying and having kids. However, their father was already in prison. Meanwhile, Caroline, whom they used to abuse, had returned to the Fisher family. Celine had refused to return to the Dott family and simply gave them some money. Jacob and Michael had built houses in their town and furnished them well. The money they used was from Caroline and their parents’ savings. Since then, their financial crisi

    In the afternoon, Duncan fetched Liberty from Fisher Enterprise for dinner. Caroline stood at the building entrance, watching Liberty and Duncan leave. She was envious. She missed Darren. Although he was still following her, he could not expose himself before others. She was not used to it. Nevertheless, she had to endure it to lure the Clark brothers into her trap. She thought, ‘Please make your move soon, brothers. Don’t keep me waiting.’At that moment, Adrian and his brothers exited the elevator. They were discussing something as they walked. When they saw Caroline standing at the entrance, they paused for a moment. However, they quickly pretended they did not see her and walked past her.Soon, three cars left the company.Caroline stood there for a few more minutes before heading to the parking lot. Her personal bodyguards were waiting at her car. They quickly went to her when they spotted her, while one of them opened the door for her. After Adrian left the com

    “I’m used to him being by my side. Now that he’s hidden, it just feels weird.”Caroline added, “Even if I want to kiss him, I can only do it in my dreams.”Liberty was speechless. Seeing Liberty being at a loss for words, Caroline smiled. “Did I renew your impression of me?”“Yes. I didn’t know you were this kind of person.”Caroline giggled. “Darren’s too serious and respectful. If I don’t take the lead, we might sleep on opposite ends of the bed after getting married. He probably won’t even dare to turn in bed.”Liberty thought of Darren’s face, which constantly had a stern expression. He only looked normal around Caroline. He indeed treated her respectfully and never dared to offend her. Liberty said, “You’re still his master. It’s only natural that he’s acting that way.“When you two become husband and wife, he’ll change. However, you won’t have to doubt his love and loyalty for you.”The next thing Liberty knew, Caroline asked her private questions regarding married lif

    Caroline moved first, exiting the elevator.Adrian blocked her path, refusing to give way.Caroline did not want to argue with her brothers, so she simply sidestepped and continued toward the CEO’s office. The Clark brothers watched her leave.“Let’s go, Adrian.” Justin entered the elevator first.Adrian withdrew his gaze and led Jason into the elevator.“I heard Darren’s out on a business trip and has been sent to another province to handle some matters, so he won’t be back for at least ten days to half a month,” Jason shared in a low voice. “And for the past few days, Caroline’s only been accompanied by those few bodyguards of hers. There really hasn’t been any sign of Darren with her. I’ve asked someone to look into it and verified Darren left Jensburg by flight a few days ago. What do you think, Adrian?”Adrian replied under his breath, “We’re at work. Don’t talk about that here. We’ll talk about it when we get home tonight.”Justin and Jason immediately shut their mouths.

    “I’m in charge now, not your mother. If you can’t do the work, then don’t cling to your positions and collect a salary for doing nothing.”Liberty had no intention of tolerating their laziness any longer.The three brothers had tried investing and running their own businesses, but they mostly ended up losing money. The only stable income they had was from renting out the properties and shops they owned.That was why Hunter had advised his sons to return to Ashford, buy more properties and shops, and live off the rental income. It was much more stable than their business ventures.If the properties were hard to rent out, they could always sell them and recover some money, but with their business investments, not only did they lose money, they often ended up in debt by the time the businesses failed.It was a mystery how much of Belinda’s personal wealth had been spent helping her sons pay off their debts while she was alive.However, there were times when they made money.
