Chapter 3276

Author: Gu Lingfei
“Thank you for your concern. She’s fine.”

“Why isn’t she dropping her nephew off, then?”

Zachary said coldly, “It’s raining and the weather’s getting colder. Is there something wrong with letting my wife sleep in? Is there a rule stipulating she has to send Sonny to preschool?”

Carrie was struck speechless.

“I heard from my wife that you have to send your sister-in-law to preschool every day despite such weather. They don’t care about you at all.” Once Zachary was done, he turned and left, paying Carrie no more attention. He would not have said anything if Carrie did not bring up Serenity.

Carrie simply was at a loss for words. Although she was not the real Mrs. Longbottom and did not actually have siblings-in-law who were still studying, she could not help but compare herself to Serenity at Zachary’s words.

She was envious of Serenity for having such a good life. Who was Zachary? He would never have done such a thing in the past. He was so busy and time was so precious to him t

    Carrie was a bit angry, but she still held it in and said, “I’ve already gotten much better. At least I dared to call out to him. The last time I saw him, I trembled and did not even dare to look at him, let alone talk to him.”This time, she even spoke to Zachary. Although she was not a hundred percent calm, she was calm enough. Was that not an improvement? Was it not enough that she improved so much in just a little over a month? She used to tremble even at the mention of his name, she would have them know.That bodyguard stayed silent.“Stop demanding so much of me. I need time to learn and your boss even said I’m supposed to be resting for these two weeks. I just aborted a baby for him, you know,” Carrie said sullenly. This was her first pregnancy and she had aborted the baby right after she realized she was pregnant, so she had not felt much for the baby, but it was a fact that her body had been badly affected. The pain of the abortion was the worst she had ever felt in her l

    After eating a simple meal, Serenity left for her office. Once she got there, she saw a huge pile of gifts.Helen said, “Mr. Dylan said they’re all apology gifts for Ms. Doyle and asked for your help to pass them on to her.”Helen had not heard the gossip about Dylan and was very curious, but if her boss did not talk about it, she would not ask.“Why isn’t he doing it himself?” Serenity looked at the pile of gifts and saw most were WIltspoon’s local specialties. They were exactly what she intended to get for Imogen, so Dylan had saved her some time and effort.“He didn’t say.”“Alright. You can go back to work now.” Serenity walked toward her desk and dug her phone out from her bag to call Dylan.He quickly picked up and began to beg her for help. He truly had decided to give up on Imogen and would not marry her, but would also not be friends with her, lest his future wife get jealous.However, it was a fact that he had led Imogen on and was removing himself from the situation a

    “You didn’t tell me you were going back early. If I hadn’t come over, I wouldn’t have known you left,” Serenity grumbled lightly.Imogen laughed. “It’s my bad. I know you're busy and it’s raining, making it colder today. I didn’t want to put you out.”She glanced at Serenity’s stomach. Serenity was wearing a thick coat, making it hard to tell her baby bump was showing.“Plus, you’re pregnant.”“I’ll visit you in Huntington once I’ve given birth.”“Sure! I’ll treat you to all of our local specialties then. They’re on par with Wiltspoon’s.”Serenity laughed. “I’ll keep that in mind. Are you in a hurry? I’ve brought some things for you. Strictly speaking, they’re not from me. Dylan asked me to send them over. He bought a lot of our local specialties as an apology.”Imogen was silent for a moment before she asked, “Are there a lot?”“Quite a lot. I don’t think you’ll be able to carry them alone. If you’re willing to accept them, I’ll ship them over to you. Just give me an address.”

    Sure enough, talent and passion were very important. Austin’s business was sure to do well since he ventured into the food and beverage industry. Fortunately, his business was thousands of miles away in Wiltspoon and could not affect the O'Connors's business. Otherwise, the food and beverage businesses they operated would suffer a complete defeat at the hands of such a formidable competitor.“It’s harder to lose weight than it is to gain it, you know.” Isabella glanced at the time and seeing that it was lunchtime, she turned off her computer. “You’re becoming more of a foodie now,” she remarked.“So what if I can eat the best food in the world every day? Everyone has to eat. Is there anyone who doesn’t like eating? Only a person who doesn’t eat and drink is weird,” Tati retorted before glancing at the time too. “Dominic and Austin must be arriving soon.”Isabella never went home for lunch as it was too much of a rush. Sometimes, she would have lunch at a five-star hotel they owned

    Seeing Isabella’s smile, Tati knew her cousin misunderstood her again. She could not be bothered to explain. Her feelings for Austin were pure admiration. His cooking and desserts were truly to her liking. She was not the only one who enjoyed them, and that included Isabella.Isabella had not criticized Austin’s cooking since he started working two days ago. “Austin’s cooking style never changes, but the taste of his food is flawless. He’s my age, yet he has such mastery in cooking. I have to admit that he’s talented. Not only that, he’s still refining his recipes.”That was a rare compliment from Isabella, which was a sign of recognition for his cooking skills. “Dominic said that Austin’s luggage only had a few sets of clothes. The rest were cookbooks of various cuisines.”The flavors created by different cooks would vary even if the recipes were the same. Some dishes had great visuals and taste while some only looked great with flavors lacking.“Austin said he loved c

    “Ms. Tati.”Austin and Dominic stood outside the office. They greeted Tati respectfully when the door opened. It was lunchtime in the company. The secretary was also heading downstairs to have lunch. Austin had used the kitchen in the cafeteria to prepare Isabella’s lunch. He had timed it perfectly so the food was delivered to the office a few minutes before lunchtime. That way, he could avoid the employees. He could also avoid disturbing Isabella from work. He and Dominic did require a few minutes to walk from the cafeteria and take the elevator to the top floor. “Hello, Dominic, Austin.”Tati moved aside and allowed them to enter. “We just finished working.”Dominic and Austin walked into the office. “Ms. Isabella.”They greeted Isabella before putting the thermal boxes down in the sofa area. They opened the boxes and placed the food on the table. Isabella walked over. “Please enjoy your meals, Ms. Isabella, Ms. Tati. Dominic and I will take our leave if you

    “You don’t even have to exercise to maintain your figure, but that’s because you aren’t eating well.”Isabella would rather go hungry than eat something she did not like. How could she gain weight when she was stressed from work and not eating properly?“Isn’t Austin being attentive by letting you eat comfortably? The desserts he prepared for you aren’t your favorites, but that’s because you don’t have a preference. Nevertheless, he still made something that you’re willing to eat.“I compared the two boxes. Mine looks like it’s simply put together. Of course, the desserts made are intricate and delicious. However, it’s obvious which one was prepared with extra care.“We’ve been having extra time to rest during lunch these days. You aren’t even drinking that much coffee in the evenings anymore.”Isabella said, “Austin must’ve bribed you to put in a good word for him. What is he scheming?”“Of course not. How could he have bribed me when he just started working days ago? Call it

    Austin mentioned that he owned a business and a few companies. Besides, his mien and looks made it evident that he was not an ordinary person. It was natural that Mr. and Mrs. O’Connor had ideas. They did not want Isabella to move to another country for marriage. She did not like it either. However, her parents would consider getting Austin to marry into their family out of desperation. “No. There’s no way Uncle Hadrian and Aunt Delphine would’ve asked me to say these words. Austin is newly employed. Everyone doesn’t know him well enough yet.”Tati smiled. “My imagination has been running wild from reading novels when I can’t sleep at night. I can’t help immersing myself into the storylines.”Isabella said, “If you still have difficulty falling asleep, it means that you aren’t busy enough. You shall be in charge of the project with Empire Group.”Tati replied, “I don’t want to take over that project, Isa. Miles Thornton is the project leader from Empire Group. We’ve been enemies

    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
