Clive received the news of his sister’s arrival a long time ago, so he did not admonish his sister for barging into his office like this.

“Why are you running so fast? Is there a ghost chasing after you?”

Clive put down his fountain pen. Since his sister was here, he would not be able to work for the time being.

“Didn’t you go to York Corporation to wait for Zachary today? How many times have I said this? Zachary isn’t suitable for you, nor will he fall in love with you, but you don’t believe me and refuse to give up. Did you get hurt by him again?

Clive got up and walked around his desk. When his sister came closer, he looked at her pale face with distress. “What did Zachary do to you?”

He was not in favor of his sister’s pursuit of Zachary, but he would never allow Zachary to hurt her.

“Clive.”

Elisa grabbed her brother’s arm and asked anxiously, “Clive, tell me quickly. Is Zachary single or married?”

Clive was stunned and said, “Why are you asking this question? Everyone in

    “Why are you so stubborn?”“Yeah, I’m just that stubborn.”Clive was exasperated.“Zachary won’t develop feelings for you, and the York family won’t pick you either.”He analyzed for his sister. “Old Mrs. York is an adult child. Out of her nine grandchildren, except for the youngest two who aren’t at marriageable age yet, the remaining seven are ready to get married. She’s looking forward to her grandchildren getting married.“It’s been some time since you publicly professed to Zachary, but what did Old Mrs. York do? She did nothing. It’s as if she doesn’t know that you’re pursuing Zachary. Do you know why? It’s because she doesn’t want you as her eldest granddaughter-in-law.“Otherwise, with her personality, she’ll definitely encourage Zachary if she knows that someone is openly pursuing him. She might even do something excessive like wrapping him up and sending him to your bed so you two can do the deed. That way, she’ll be able to have a great-grandchild as soon as possible.

    Clive saw his sister’s pale face and knew that she must be devastated.He had been in love before. Although he had a happy marriage, he had experienced sadness and despair before that. Thus, he knew that feelings could hurt one deeply.Clive could also tell that Zachary would not fall in love with Elisa, so if Elisa continued to pester Zachary, she would be the one who would get hurt in the end. It was better to let her give up on Zachary as soon as possible.He sighed and said, “Elisa, it’s not that I don’t want to help you investigate Zachary. Think about who’s working for him – Josh Bucham. You know what the Buchams are capable of. Once I do a background check on Zachary, Zachary will know.“Do you think Zachary will let me find out? Besides, I’ve arranged for most of my subordinates to look for our aunt.”Elisa was silent.She knew what her brother said was true.Josh Bucham worked for Zachary, and everyone in Wiltspoon knew what the Buchams were best at.“Elisa, there are

    Zachary hesitated and struggled for ten minutes before he pushed open the door to get out of the car and walked into the florist.“Sir, would you like to buy flowers? Are they for your girlfriend?”After Zachary looked around the shop, he said to the shopkeeper, “It’s for my wife.”The shopkeeper smiled. “Is this for a birthday or wedding anniversary?”“Neither. I just want to give her flowers.”The shopkeeper smiled. “What about a bouquet of roses interspersed with baby’s-breath?”Zachary had never bought flowers for a woman. He thought the shopkeeper’s suggestion was good, so he nodded and said, “Sure, whatever you see fit.”“Please wait for a moment.”The shopkeeper could tell this was the first time this man was buying flowers for his wife.After a while, the shopkeeper handed a bunch of flowers to Zachary. Zachary took the bouquet and paid the bill before turning around and walking out of the florist with the bouquet in hand.Zachary put the bouquet in the passenger seat

    Zachary was exceptionally patient and would do whatever Sonny asked him to do. He would also teach Sonny some new ways to play with the toys.Serenity could not help but think that Zachary would be a responsible father when he has his own children.“What’s the matter?”Jasmine noticed that her friend was staring in a certain direction, so she leaned over and found her friend looking at Mr. York. She suddenly laughed ambiguously and nudged Serenity’s shoulder. “Do you think your husband is particularly handsome?”“There’s no need to think about it. He has always been a handsome guy.”“Hurry up and jump him then. Look how nice and patient he is with Sonny. Although he looks like a block of ice, he’s actually quite soft-hearted. He must like children very much. You should jump him and get down to it, then you can give birth to a baby as good-looking as him. How great is that?”Serenity laughed. “You talk as if I’m just trying to have a baby.”She paused and whispered, “Even if I ju

    Serenity said, “My sister said she’s not coming over for lunch because her office is quite far from here. It’s troublesome to go back and forth since she doesn’t have a long lunch break. They have an office cafeteria, so she’ll be eating there.”Zachary hummed.“When Liberty comes back from work in the evening, you should ask her if she can adapt to the company and if anyone bullies her. I’m quite close with Mr. Lewis, so if someone bullies her, I will ask Mr. Lewis to back her up.”Serenity turned her head to look at him again. “No wonder my sister loves you so much. She always tells me to treat you well.”Zachary blushed slightly.He had always been on his best behavior in front of his sister-in-law.Due to time constraints, Serenity prepared a simple lunch.Fortunately, Zachary ate with relish and did not dislike it at all.Serenity thought that apart from not eating bacon, green onions, garlic, and coriander, he was actually quite easy to please.After the meal, Zachary di

    Zachary looked at Serenity silently for a moment and was still keeping mum. He then turned around and left.Serenity opened her mouth and wanted to stop him, but she gave up. Since he did not want to say anything, it was useless even if she pried his mouth open.“His silence is so annoying. Why can’t he just say it frankly?”Serenity criticized Zachary’s reticence.Humans were curious beings, and Zachary piqued Serenity’s curiosity by being so hesitant to speak. She always wondered what he was trying to say.Within two minutes, the quiet man came in with a bouquet of roses.Serenity looked at him, dumbfounded.She could not believe that Zachary was holding a bunch of flowers.Serenity rubbed her eyes and looked at him again to confirm that the man was indeed Mr. York.‘Is he going to give me the flowers?’For some reason, Serenity’s heart raced, and every nerve in her body suddenly tightened. Hell, she was so nervous!Zachary did not hand the bouquet to Serenity. Instead, he

    Serenity said, “My husband gave it to me. Isn’t it pretty? I think it’s beautiful. I love it!”After taking countless photos of the bouquet, Serenity put down her phone to pick up the bouquet and took a sniff. “It smells so good too!”To Shawn, this scene was an eyesore.“Oh, your husband gave it to you? What’s the occasion today? I haven’t seen him send flowers to you before.” Shawn’s smile was a little stiff. His tone was a little bitter as if he had a bone to pick.Serenity looked up at him and said, “Does it need to be an occasion for my husband to send me flowers? If I want, my husband can send me a bunch of flowers every day. I was just worried that he’d spend too much because a bouquet isn’t cheap. It’s not edible either. I told my husband that it would be better if he saved that money to buy meat instead of flowers. That’s why he never sent me flowers.”Shawn said, “Right…”"Shawn, are you looking for Jas? Why don’t you call her? She should be back soon.”“It’s nothing.

    Jasmine said, “Do you believe that it doesn’t mean anything? Seren, if you both have feelings for each other, you two should seize the opportunity. I’m still waiting to attend your real wedding so I can be your bridesmaid!”Jasmine teased her friend.“You’re thinking a little too far ahead.”“I don’t think it’s too far ahead. Haha! Seren, I’m going to grab a cup of coffee with Shawn. What do you want? I’ll get a takeout for you later.”Serenity thought about it for a while and said, “Just get me a cup of milk tea, please.”“Okay,” Jasmine replied immediately. “You watch over the store. I’m going to have coffee.”“Go ahead!”The store was not busy at this time anyway. Serenity would either be napping at the cashier or making her handicrafts.Jasmine left.Shawn was waiting outside.When Jasmine came out, the smile on her face faded.“Let’s go.”She went straight to Shawn’s car.Shawn saw that his cousin’s expression was a little serious and he felt a little guilty for no re

    “If Mom said she would create an opportunity for you to get with the king, would you really believe her? It’s just talk—nothing actually happened.” Trenton could not resist poking Carrie’s forehead a few times. “Carrie, can you please come back to earth? In your current state, forget about finding a great guy like Callum—even a regular, decent guy would be turned off by you.”Carrie swatted away her brother’s fingers, irritated and embarrassed. “Am I really that bad? I’m young, beautiful, have a great figure, and a dignified heiress. If the monarchy still existed, I could marry the king and be his queen without a problem.”“Carrie, you have sky-high ambitions, but be careful, don’t fly too close to the sun and end up like Icarus.”As soon as he said that, Trenton was met with a smack from his sister.“Is there a brother who curses his own sister like that? What do you mean by that? I’m destined to have the princess life. I’ll be fine.”However, deep down, she was still worried bec

    Camryn was right—he was just too soft-hearted. If he were as ruthless as her, Carrie would have found a job long ago after running out of money.To encourage Carrie to become independent, Trenton decided that after Christmas, he would stop giving her living expenses. He would also tell their parents during his visit to prison that Carrie was truly hopeless.“Trenton, you keep siding with her, and one day you'll regret it. She’s a wolf in sheep’s clothing who has deceived who knows how many people. Do you really think she cares about you? She just wants to win your complete trust to take everything that belongs to you for herself. By driving us out of our home, she’s not only seeking revenge on Mom and Dad but also on us—especially you. She’s just pretending to be nice to you to sow discord between us siblings.”“Carrie!” Trenton said seriously, “Don’t talk about Camryn like that. She’s not that kind of person. I believe in her, one hundred percent.”Carrie was so furious she wanted

    “Alright, alright, I can't win with the two of you against one,” Carrie sulked. “Give me money to spend. I'm out of money.”She reached out her hand toward Camryn, wanting her to give her money. Camryn slapped her hand away. “Even Trenton knows to take advantage of the winter break to find a part-time job and earn some pocket money. You’re perfectly capable, yet you don’t look for a job.“To put it bluntly, if you’ve gone to sweep the streets, you'd still have a source of income. I have money, but I won’t give it to you. Don’t think that just because we’re sisters—estranged, too, at that—I have an obligation to support my adult sister. I’ve said it before: if you want money to spend, earn it yourself.” With that, Camryn walked away to tend to her plants.As Christmas approached, the flower market was bustling. Every day, many people came to buy flowers, and all her employees were out delivering flowers to clients. Sometimes, when it got too busy, she even had to ask her two bodyguar

    Trenton was relieved that Dalton was indebted to Camryn. That was why Dalton had been loyal to Newman Enterprise.If Newman Enterprise did not fall into Camryn’s hands, there was no doubt that Dalton would leave the company. If that happened, the company was doomed.When his parents went to prison, he was merely 18, and Carrie only knew how to spend money. Not only that, their relatives were hungry to get a share of the Newman family’s assets. He and Carrie could not have protected their family’s wealth alone.After Camryn regained her sight, she still could not strain her eyes for long hours. Therefore, Dalton remained in charge of the company.Luckily, they had Callum as well. Even if anything were to happen, Callum would not leave Newman Enterprise to fall because many of the Newman family’s assets belonged to Camryn.He would not let Camryn lose anything.“You’ve been brainwashed by Dalton after working with him. Our dad treated him well and trusted him, yet Dalton betrayed

    Camryn said, “She’s just using her lack of money as an excuse to start a fight with me.“Do you really think she has no money?”Carrie had somehow become Mrs. Longbottom yet she was still hiding her identity. Camryn had not understood the entire situation yet.Nevertheless, she was certain that Carrie did not need money.After she spoke, a familiar car arrived.It was the car Carrie had always used in the past.When she returned to the Newman family’s villa after getting out of prison, she only drove that car. She could not take other cars. The cars were still parked in the garage. “Come out, Camryn.”Carrie had gotten out of the car and started shouting for Camryn.When the York family’s bodyguards saw her, they simply glanced at her and did not stop her from entering the store. They knew Camryn had always been lenient with her younger sister.Since Camryn did not give any orders to stop Carrie from entering, the bodyguards simply kept an eye on Carrie to ensure that sh

    “I want to go to Spring Blossoms as Carrie,” she told the bodyguard who was driving. “Your sister’s people are keeping an eye on your apartment. She’ll get suspicious again if you head over in your outfit. Everything Mr. Longbottom arranged will go to waste,” the bodyguard reminded her.Carrie thought it over. “Okay. Let’s head home first. I’ll change my clothes and remove my makeup before heading over.”She would also check if her stand-in had damaged any of her stuff.If she did, Carrie would tell the stand-in to compensate her.The bodyguard remained silent.Once they arrived at Longbottom Villa, Carrie took off her hyper-realistic mask and removed her makeup. After changing her clothes, she returned to being Carrie and went out with her bag.Her two bodyguards did not stop her from leaving.She could do anything as long as it would not rouse Camryn and other people’s suspicions.Besides, Carrie had just gotten scolded by their boss on the phone. Although Mr. Longbottom

    Mr. Longbottom thought he was not so inferior to men younger than him.More accurately, he was far superior. He had status, money, and power.Which of the younger men could be on par with him unless they came from a wealthy family?Many sons of wealthy families could not compete with him.“I can’t go over because I’m busy these days. But I do miss you too.“It’s more difficult because of the festive season. There are many events, and I have to accompany my family. My wife doesn't care about me, but her request is that I be with her during the holidays because we have to meet our friends and families. Do you understand?”Mr. Longbottom had a wife and children. Carrie knew about it. He had never hid that fact.Carrie did not know if he was close to his wife. Although he said they no longer had feelings for each other, Carrie dared not believe him because he had never let other women take his wife’s place.He also never allowed other women to become pregnant with his children.Mr

    Carrie thought she had matured since she could figure out that much. In the past, she would not have understood a thing. Love was about accepting everything about someone. Most people could tolerate their partner’s shortcomings when they were deeply in love. However, without love, even a person’s strength would seem like a fault. Carrie smiled. “Mr. York is a workaholic. Serenity must’ve gotten the habit from him and turned into one herself. I can’t believe she’s working so hard even though she’s pregnant.”“She’s still in the early stages of pregnancy. Going to work is fine.”“Do you need anything else, Mrs. Longbottom?” Jasmine asked.“No. I shall take my leave now, Mrs. Bucham.”Jasmine was on guard and unwilling to reveal much about Serenity. Therefore, it would be better for Carrie to leave. She was not close to Serenity and her friends yet. “Bye, Mrs. Longbottom.”Jasmine saw Carrie out and watched as she got into her car.Once Carrie got far enough from the booksto

    Mr. Longbottom had been surprised by her question. He told her coldly that she should refrain from asking unnecessary questions.One who knew too much would not live long. Carrie got intimidated and dared not ask another question. Although she got more curious, she did not try to gather more information for fear Mr. Longbottom would choke her again if he found out. “Nothing. I just asked because I haven’t seen her in a while.”Of course, Carrie could not reveal that she was looking for Serenity. Jasmine would get suspicious if she did. No one around Serenity was a fool. “Seren is busy with work. I rarely see her these days,” Jasmine said.Carrie knew it was a lie. She was aware that Serenity's closest friends did not trust her yet. It made her feel defeated. It had been months since Mr. Longbottom found her and asked her to approach Serenity. Despite her efforts, she still had not obtained Serenity’s trust, let alone become her friend.However, Jasmine and Serenity go
