Callum helped himself and served everyone refreshments.

He studied the chessboard and said, “I think this was a deliberate move by Aunt Sasha. With your current skills, you won’t figure out where to place that chess piece even after another day.”

Simon was terrible at chess.

His face fell. He glared at Callum.

No matter how much he sucked at chess, it was no fun to be teased by his nephew as he had some dignity to preserve.

Callum chuckled. He looked toward Sasha for help to escape Simon’s deadly stares.

He was merely stating facts.

Upon receiving Callum’s S.O.S., Sasha told her husband, “Keep it away. We can wrap this game up another day.”

“I’d rather not play against you. Callum can do it in your stead. And Callum, stay at the manor this weekend and don’t make other plans. Let’s play a few games together. Otherwise, I’ll nag you to kingdom come.”

Callum quickly begged, “Sorry, Uncle Simon. I was wrong. You’re exceptionally good at chess. You’re a chess maestro, the best

    “This street is so popular.”Serenity exclaimed when she saw the street filled with people.“It gets more crowded during the holidays. They’ll be pushing each other. Tonight’s crowd is still acceptable.”Rosalie led Serenity down the street. Whenever they passed by a stall, she would ask Serenity if she wanted to eat something.Serenity smiled. “I don’t know what’s good here. You can pick out some. I don’t think we’ll be able to try everything that’s sold on this street.”“I think our stomachs will already be stuffed when we’re halfway through.”Rosalie said, “I came here often with my classmates when I was still studying.”Based on her memory, she found a few long-established stalls and let Serenity try their food.Serenity said she was full after going to a few.Rosalie smiled. “You eat like a bird. We’ve only been to a few, and I've only ordered their bestsellers. The portions aren’t even that big.”“Still, we ate a lot. Overeating will affect our sleep.“Let’s sit here a

    “I want Rosalie as my sister-in-law, River. Do your best. Nana has seen Rosalie’s pictures, and she likes her a lot.“If it weren’t for Nana’s age and Zachary banning her from traveling, she would’ve flown over with your parents.”Since Grandma May was old, she was no longer allowed to travel.While Martin and Rosella still could travel, the old matriarch did not allow them to go to Solville. She said there was no need to bond with Rosalie yet, as nothing had been confirmed. The couple was forced to remain at Wildridge Manor and look after their grandchildren.River blushed. He said, “I know what I’m feeling, Serenity. My heart won’t change for the rest of my life. Rosalie will surely be your sister-in-law.”Serenity stood. “I’m going upstairs to change my clothes. You can take the kids to play. Don’t let them see me going out. Just arrange a driver to take me to the street.”“Okay. Remember to put in good words for me.”“Of course. We’re family. I’m well aware of that.”Sere

    Serenity thought about it and said, “You’re right. If your company doesn’t shift its focus, it’ll always be competing with Summit Group. You and Rosalie call the shots for your respective companies.“Neither of you can give up on your careers. You two are really unsuited for each other.“Perhaps Crest Co. and Summit Group can have a collaboration. It’ll be beneficial to both sides.“Good luck, River. I believe you’ll win Rosalie’s heart. She has feelings for you, but she’s too rational.”River could also sense that Rosalie cared about him. However, they could not abandon their companies.When speaking with Damian, River knew that he had to find a breakthrough and alleviate the tension between Crest Co. and Summit Group.At that moment, Serenity’s phone rang.She saw the caller ID and said, “It’s Rosalie.”She picked up the phone.“Serenity.”“What’s the matter, Rosalie?”Serenity asked, “I heard from River that you have an appointment tonight.”Rosalie smiled. “Yes. I was

    “I can carry Callia, Uncle River. I eat a lot. I’m strong.”Callia agreed with her brother. “Carry. Carry.”River walked toward the house while carrying Callia and holding Heath’s hand. He said, “I’m carrying you now, Lil’ Pie. I wanted to see you two after working all day outside.“You’re my happy pills. I feel happy just from seeing you guys.”Heath told River, “Callia and I can stay at your place for some time. Mom can go back on her own. She has to work.“We can also ask Aunt Camryn to send Merry and the rest over. That way, we’ll have playmates and you won’t have to look after us.”River smiled. “Are you and Lil’ Pie having so much fun that you don’t want to go home? If you and your brothers were to stay at my place, I won’t be able to focus on working.”“I was kidding. We want to go home. We miss Dad, Nana, Grandpa, and Great-Nana.”Callia copied her brother, saying, “Great-Nana, Great-Nana.”She liked being with Grandma May. River pretended to breathe a sigh of relief

    River did not move. He stared at Rosalie and asked softly, “Can we be together if we aren’t business competitors, Rosalie?“I think I might have fallen in love with you.”Rosalie was dumbfounded.Was he confessing to her?Based on her understanding, he was worth entrusting herself to if they were not business competitors. Rosalie said, “I’m not interested in ‘ifs’, River. Stop thinking about what hasn’t happened. I live in reality. The present is more important.”She meant that they could not be together as they were still competitors.She would only consider his question if they were no longer on opposing sides as he had mentioned. She could not give him an answer for something that had not occurred. River nodded and smiled. “I understand.”He stood up and said, “Go on with your work. I should head back and continue working, too. Since I have a meeting later, you can cancel tonight’s blind date. However, you still have to treat me to a meal. You promised to do it for a mont

    “How did I trick you? Weren’t you the one who refused to take responsibility after molesting me?“Many people saw you flirting with me and thought we were in a relationship. It ruined my reputation and chances of finding a wife. You were the one who offered to arrange blind dates for me.“You offered it as compensation. I didn’t force you to do it. How could you say I tricked you into doing it? You caused this trouble yourself. It’s none of my business. If anything, I’m an innocent victim who got involved because of you.“That night, Christian had told you to stop drinking. He was going to take you home, but you insisted on molesting me in front of that many people. You kissed, hugged, and touched me.”Rosalie’s expression was dark and flushed red from anger. However, she was helpless.It was indeed her fault.She had dug a trap and jumped into it herself.Rosalie put the bouquet on the table and said, “Okay. Let’s stop talking about that. I won’t accept the flowers. You can tak
