Camryn looked at Trenton’s swollen cheek and asked, “Did she hit you?”Touching the side of his face that was slapped by Carrie, Trenton replied, “Yes, she slapped me. But I stopped her when she tried to do it again. She went to see our parents and found out that I had them transfer the family assets to me, so she came to settle the score.“Camryn, don’t bother with Carrie. She’s spoiled by our parents, doesn’t know her limits, and needs to face reality. Only through life’s experiences can she mature a bit.”Camryn tenderly touched the swell and said with concern, “She’s just a lunatic, spoiled by Mom. If she can’t protect her child for a lifetime and ends up raising a useless person, then she’s only harming the child.”Carrie was a victim of her parents’ indulgence; spoiling a child was akin to harming the child.“Go inside and apply an ice pack.”“Okay.”The siblings headed in together.Meanwhile, Carrie went back to her rented house, grumbling and complaining.When she open

The middle-aged man smiled and said, “My surname is Longbottom. Now, you've gotten to know me, Ms. Carrie.”His gaze was quite audacious. After Carrie approached, he shamelessly scrutinized her, finally displaying a satisfied look at Carrie’s figure and appearance.“Ms. Carrie, please have a seat. Let’s have a chat.”“Mr. Longbottom, this is my home. Don’t act like you’re the master here. You have illegally entered. Do you know that I can call the police on you at any time?”He laughed. Not bad looking for a man in his forties or fifties, presenting the image of a suave middle-aged man.However, his gaze was overly audacious, and Carrie did not like the way his eyes roved over her, as if scrutinizing prey.“Yes, yes, it’s our mistake. Apologies to you.”With that, Mr. Longbottom clapped his hands.A bodyguard stepped forward and handed a new handbag to him.Mr. Longbottom took the bag and then passed it to Carrie, saying with a sly smile, “Ms. Carrie, this is my apology to you

Carrie asked in confusion, “Why would I want to change my appearance? I’m satisfied with my natural looks and don’t want to change anything about it.”Mr. Longbottom smiled. “Ms. Carrie has excellent features. If you don’t want to go under the knife, then wear a human skin mask. Just wear it whenever you go out. I’ve prepared one that looks so real, even someone with the Eye of Ra wouldn’t be able to tell.“Also, I’ll give you a new identity. Until our alliance is complete, you cannot revert to your original identity as Ms. Carrie of the Newman family. I can assure you that once my affairs are settled, I will grant you all the properties you desire from the Newman family.“Your blind sister, I want to crush her like an ant. She’s not a threat, but I need you to cooperate with me. Once my goals are achieved, I can help you seize everything you want.”Mr. Longbottom’s words were extremely arrogant as if he possessed tremendous abilities. He spoke boldly about crushing Callum as if sq

Carrie’s face instantly turned ugly.“Mr. Longbottom, are you asking me to be your mistress?”She was only twenty years old, young and beautiful. With her background, marrying into a wealthy family and becoming a young missus was entirely feasible.This older man, even if well-preserved, should be around her father’s age, and yet he wanted her as his mistress!It was like an old man preying on a young girl.Mr. Longbottom chuckled. “Ms. Carrie, you lack special skills and are unwilling to bow down to reality, to work for a monthly income of a few thousand dollars. Tell me, how will you live? Relying on your brother’s monthly allowance of five thousand dollars for your living expenses?”Carrie was shocked.How did this man know about her conversation with Trenton?Did he have someone watching her, tracking her every encounter, every person she met, and the words she spoke?That would be terrifying.Even Zachary would not be able to achieve such a level of surveillance.“Besid

Mr. Longbottom laughed heartily. Then, he looked at her and said, “Ms. Carrie, this may not be up to you. It’s best if you agree. Even if you don’t agree, you’ll have to, because I’ve approached you. I can’t let you expose me. Otherwise, I’ll have to silence you.“I will also make you die a painful death. You’ve seen my men, there are more than ten of them.”Carrie’s face turned deathly pale.“Ms. Carrie, do you choose to be with me, or do you choose death? I’ll give you a few minutes to consider.”Carrie glanced at the dozen or so men in black.Then she looked at Mr. Longbottom. Who exactly was this man?He spoke of killing without hesitation.Could he be a serial killer?Carrie suddenly sank to her knees.“Mr. Longbottom, please spare my life. I don’t want to die. I’m only twenty years old, and I don’t want to die.”Her life had just begun.Mr. Longbottom stood up, walked over to her, and lifted her.Carrie understood his intentions. Her face grew even paler, but she made

Carrie asked in confusion, “Since you are targeting Mrs. Young-Johnson’s adopted son, why don’t you directly find someone to help you in Annenburg? The distance between Wiltspoon and Annenburg is quite far. Even if she and Serenity are close, they don’t meet often.”Mr. Longbottom sighed. “That’s the unavoidable part.”“There was absolutely no trace of Laurence in Annenburg. We only knew that Laurence was the adopted son of Ben and his wife. However, no one outside knew what the child looked like.“Moreover, Laurence rarely stayed in Annenburg. We did not know where the kid usually hides. “The Johnsons are protected by the Houstons and are in-laws with the Lafayette family from Meadspring. Plus, Tim’s wife is a disciple of a renowned doctor. I dared not provoke them. Previously, we investigated Laurence’s identity, but Ben found out that someone was looking into Laurence's background. “After that, we lost all relevant information about Laurence.”“It was only recently that they

Mr. Longbottom emphasized, “I’m not interested in petty revenge. But if you want to vent, my people can help you with that. As long as you follow and assist me, I won't mistreat you.“Moreover, those who have wronged you, by that time, I can help you deal with them.”Once he obtained the totem and became the true wielder of power, it would be his time to call the shots. On that day, he would not even spare the York family a glance.Except perhaps for the Bucham family.“What exactly is your background?”“I won’t tell you for now. You’ll know later. Anyway, if you stick with me, I guarantee you a life of luxury.”With that, he caressed Carrie’s face.“Alright, I won’t bother you anymore. I’ll leave two people here to protect you. If anything happens, they’ll contact me. I have to go back. There’s too much to handle.”After lightly patting Carrie’s thigh, Mr. Longbottom stood up, instructed two bodyguards to stay, and left Carrie’s rented place with the rest of his entourage.

The two babies were a few months old and they could already roll over and have baby talks with the adults.Laurence said, “I often see Clo-clo. She recognizes me, so of course she smiles at me. You rarely play with her, and since she doesn’t recognize you, she won’t smile at you. You can play with Connor. My little sister is fine with me.”From time to time, Connor’s little legs kicked Sonny’s hands placed on the stroller. This little one was restless; he was either quiet when asleep or constantly moving, crying, and wanting adults to hold him.Even handing him a toy to play with would only last for a couple of minutes before he threw it away and started crying.Chloe, as usual, did not like to cry. If the siblings lay together, Connor would keep crying, and Chloe’s little feet would kick her brother, seemingly disdainful of him being a crybaby.Sonny bent down to kiss Chloe, but Laurence blocked him.“You can’t kiss Clo-clo. Uncle Ben said none of us can kiss her, but we must pr

Austin replied, “Both Mr. Louis and Mr. Phillip woke up very early, especially Mr. Phillip. He gets up earlier than Mr. Louis every morning. It’s really hard on him, getting up so early in such cold weather.”Sometimes, he himself felt like staying in bed a little longer, reluctant to leave the warm comfort of his blankets.Even after the New Year, Satbury remained quite cold. In contrast, over in Wiltspoon, the temperatures had begun to reach a high of over seventy degrees Fahrenheit in the daytime, with nighttime lows around fifty degrees.The two provinces and cities were simply incomparable. The temperatures in Wiltspoon were just so very comfortable for Satbury locals.Isabella smiled and said, “Phillip is just afraid he’ll get here too late and that you’ll assume he’s not coming over for breakfast, then not prepare any for him. He's such a little foodie.”The house was never short of snacks for the little ones. In fact, any goodies were always reserved for them first.Yet,

Even when she attended banquets, she would show up in formal clothing. Isabella did not remember the last time she wore a dress. Perhaps it was when she was in third grade. In fact, she liked wearing pretty princessy dresses when she was young. Her mother had told her that.As Isabella was the first child and extremely adorable, Delphine had dolled her up like a princess. Her pretty dresses filled the closet. Her parents, aunts, uncles, and relatives would always gift her many beautiful dresses. As she grew up, perhaps when she was in fourth grade, she stopped wearing dresses. Regardless of who gave her new pieces, she would refuse to wear them and give them to her cousins instead. After everyone realized she disliked dresses, they gradually stopped giving her them. Delphine had asked Isabella why she disliked wearing dresses. Isabella reasoned that she could not walk quickly enough while wearing one. She valued speed and efficiency. Delphine said she had alway

While the private chefs Ms. Isabella had hired in the past were respectful, they were leaning toward flattery instead of sincere dedication, like how Austin was toward Ms. Isabella.Dominic was experienced. He could sense that Ms. Isabella treated Austin differently. She was also a special existence to Austin. It was normal for young people to be attracted to each other. Initially, Dominic wanted to advise Austin not to even think about dating Ms. Isabella. However, upon discovering that Austin was a young master of a wealthy family, he decided not to interfere. Dominic was glad that he did nothing.Austin returned to the house. Instead of heading straight to the kitchen, he went upstairs. He stopped outside of Isabella’s room and knocked on the door lightly. No response came from within the room. Perhaps Austin was too soft when he knocked. He knocked on the door again with more force and asked, “Are you up yet, Ms. Isabella? It’s time to have breakfast.”Isabella w

Austin was extremely patient with the boys. Although they occasionally caused trouble, most of them were minor issues. They would never do something they were not allowed to do.After breakfast, Austin brought them their bags. With a boy in each hand, he left the house. It was to prevent the boys from saying he was playing favorites. Dominic was used to that scene. Initially, Austin was simply Ms. Isabella’s private chef. However, he gradually took on more responsibilities.He would take the two young masters to school. If he had time in the evening, he would also fetch them from school. Austin also made sure Louis and Phillip did their homework, supervised their hobby classes, and played with them. Sometimes, he would even teach them martial arts and train with them. Dominic felt Austin was an all-rounder. It seemed like there was nothing Austin could not do. No wonder Ms. Isabella thought highly of Austin. However, Austin was a young master of a wealthy family. He w

Louis and Phillip were downstairs having the breakfast Austin had prepared for them. The food was different every morning, and everything was delicious.Having gotten used to Austin’s cooking, Louis and Phillip could no longer stand the food provided in the school. They thought the food there was terrible. Louis was enrolled in an elementary school not far from home. As he was a first grader, he did not need to stay in the dormitories and could have his lunch and dinner at home. Phillip, who was a year younger than him, was still in preschool. He would have breakfast and dinner at home. Actually, the preschool did provide breakfast, but Phillip refused to eat in school and insisted on having breakfast at home. In order to eat the breakfast Austin made, he would get up early in the morning without the adults waking him. After putting on his clothes and washing up, he would head to Louis’s place with his bag. “Austin.”Louis suddenly asked, “Did my sister come back last n

Isabella had always thought Tati was teasing her. Therefore, she did not take her words seriously. She thought it was completely normal for Austin to treat her well as she was his boss. From Austin’s perspective, she was his source of income. Now that Isabella pondered about it deeper, she realized perhaps Austin did come to Satbury for her. It was not just to be her chef. He always said Grandma May only gave the York lads a year to pursue their fiancées. However, Austin had never left since he started working for Isabella. Even if he did, it was to accompany her on business trips. He was busy feeding and taking care of her every day and had never gone to pursue his so-called fiancée. He did not even try to gather information on her. Was he not anxious?A year would go by pretty quickly. Although it felt like it had not been long since Austin started working for Isabella, three months had passed. Time really flew. Three months had gone by in the blink of an eye. Neve

When Austin reached the door, he stopped and turned to say, “Ms. Isabella, I only care about my future wife. Other young women are simply strangers to me.“I’m polite to other women when I need to be. If they’re unimportant, I’ll ignore them. Even if that woman is my boss, I won’t cross any lines. If I do, there must be a reason behind it.“Get some rest, Ms. Isabella. You might have a headache when you wake up tomorrow. I’ll prepare a warm honey drink for you in the morning.”After speaking, Austin left. Isabella turned to look at where he last stood. What did his words mean?He said he only cared about his future wife.Aside from this lady, he would not step out of line with any other young woman, even if she were his boss. What did he mean by crossing lines?Was it showing concern? Did he mean that if his boss was a young woman but not his fiancée, he would simply do what was required of him without any personal feelings involved? Was that what he meant?If so, was

Isabella was cold sometimes, but that was not her true personality. She was a reasonable person. Austin was not worried that he would be mistreated as a live-in son-in-law. “Ms. Isabella.”Isabella looked toward him and waited for him to speak. He asked, “This may be abrupt, but may I ask what your ideal type is?”Isabella was stunned. Why did the question come to her? What was the type of man she liked?‘Someone like Austin,’ she thought. After a moment of silence, she said, “I like men who are capable, responsible, and have correct values. Even if his family isn’t as financially well-off as mine, I don’t mind so long as he’s honest, competent, and sincere about his feelings for me.“Of course, it’ll be great if we have the same social status. That way, we’ll have similar perspectives and more common topics. If we get married, we’ll be joining forces instead of it being a one-way financial aid.”“Although you can accept someone who isn’t from a similar family backgrou

After a moment of silence, Isabella said, “It’s okay. I know I was forcing it.”There was no point in asking Austin if he did not want to reveal anything. If he wanted to tell her, he would do so without her asking. However, her curiosity spiked with his silence. She was eager to know who his fiancée was. He was already so protective of his fiancée even though he had not met her before. It made Isabella jealous. It was her first time feeling that kind of emotion throughout her life. Although it was not a strong feeling, she still felt it. “You weren’t forcing me to tell you. You were simply curious. Most people have a curious side. It’s only natural for you to be inquisitive as well.”Austin said gently, “It’s not just you. Those who knew that my nana had chosen fiancées for my brothers and me were also curious about who the ladies were.“To be honest, we didn’t even know Nana had been choosing fiancées for us since a few years ago until she handed their pictures to us
