Chapter 602

Author: Gu Lingfei
Hank had only pulled his mother up when his sister went weak at the knees once more. Hank was in a dilemma as he had to hold his sister up too.

He told them not to mess with Liberty, but his family refused to listen and went against his wishes anyway. Hank simply could not get a moment of peace.

Hank had been taking a lot of heat at the office, and work had been hanging over his head. His boss did not look too pleased when Hank ditched work to come here.

He believed that at this rate, his family would cost him the over one million bucks he gave to Liberty to keep his job.

Likely spooked by the drama, Sonny clung to his mother’s neck without staring at his grandmother and aunt.

Duncan happened to stand in his line of vision.

As Duncan stood behind Liberty, Sonny’s eyes met Duncan with his head resting over his mother’s shoulder.

Sonny left quite an impression on Duncan. Although Duncan was a crude burly man, he loved children.

The boy was as cute as a button.

    Serenity left her sister’s rented place and arrived home at half-past ten at night. She opened the door to the pitch-dark house. Was Nana not at home? Was she asleep? Serenity stepped into the house and turned on the light. She then closed and locked the door behind her. After much thought, she opened the door and grabbed a pair of Zachary’s loafers to put at the front door. It was to show others that there was a man in the house. It was a safety measure. “You’re back, Ms. Hunt.” Hearing the noise, Mrs. Lane came out of her bedroom. “Yeah.” Serenity asked, “Is Nana asleep?” “Old Mrs. York went back. Your brother-in-law picked her up. She thought you wouldn’t be home tonight, so she told me to inform you when you return tomorrow.”Serenity was surprised. “Nana went home?” Mrs. Lane replied, “Old Mrs. York said she moved in with you because she got into a fight with your husband. Now that they made up, she moved back to her house.”She believed Old Mrs. York was a

    Mrs. Lane stood up for her boss. “Ms. Hunt, I haven’t been working with you for long, but I’m a good judge of character. Mr. York and your former brother-in-law are not the same type of people. Mr. York has a strong sense of responsibility. He won’t shrink away from his duty to care for you, his wife.“The way I see it, Mr. York doesn’t know how to talk to women and doesn’t like it when young women get close to him. He rarely talks to Ms. Sox. He keeps his distance but acknowledges her presence. He’s a brilliant man, but he’s also the kind that won’t look at another woman. Ms. Hunt, don’t be scared because of your sister’s failed marriage.“Love is beautiful, and there are happy endings to marriages. Not everyone’s marriage is like your sister’s. I was a nanny to Mr. York’s youngest cousin for many years. They are a good family. “Mr. York’s parents, uncles, and aunts are committed to their relationship and marriage. The men in the house are responsible and loyal to their wives. “

    Serenity took Zachary’s call. “I’m not a hot water bottle!” The first thing that came out of Zachary’s mouth was to correct what Serenity called him. Serenity chuckled. “I’m feeling cold now, so I thought about you. You’re warmer than a hot water bottle.” Zachary’s voice was gruff. “So, you wouldn’t think of me if you weren’t feeling cold?” Serenity gladly admitted to that fact. “I probably would’ve gone right to bed if I weren’t cold. Oh, I’ll send you a goodnight gif.” Zachary was speechless. “Are you done with your work? You should carry on if you aren’t. I’m going to bed.” Serenity was about to hang up the call. “Serenity.” Zachary huskily asked, “Are your DNA test results with Mrs. Stone out yet?” “The results are out. Mrs. Stone is my aunt. We’re related by blood.” Although his heart sank, Zachary did not show it in his face or tone. “Congratulations on finding your family.” “Thank you.” She only had her sister for fifteen years. Now that an aunt sudde

    Zachary, on the other hand, became more addicted and fell deeper in love with Serenity.Ring ring ring...Zachary’s phone rang again.He thought it was Serenity, but then he saw the caller ID and it was Duncan.“Duncan.”Zachary leaned back on the black swivel chair and asked indifferently, “Why are you calling me so late at night?”“There’s something important I need to tell you. Do you know that your wife has an aunt? It’s Mrs. Stone. It turns out that the sister Mrs. Stone has been looking for is your mother-in-law.”Duncan was not as gossipy as Josh, but he loved to watch drama and gloat on the sidelines.He just felt that he should relay this news to his best friend.“Stone Group and York Corporation have always been at odds. Clive and you will never appear at the same place together. The relationship between the two of you is completely frozen... I just thought of something.”Duncan muttered in hindsight, “When you treated Clive to that meal back then, did you already k

    “Zachary, maybe Serenity didn’t tell you because she didn’t want you to worry?”Duncan felt that he made a mistake and quickly offered an explanation.However, Zachary hung up the phone.Duncan said to himself, “Damn it. What am I supposed to do if the couple gets into a quarrel because of this?”Once Zachary cared about a person, he would want the other party to put him first. In simpler terms, he was overbearing.His domineering nature would sometimes let people feel like he cared about them, but other times, it made people feel suffocated as if they could not breathe.What was worse was that Zachary would feel like he was in the wrong. For example, he felt like he fell in love with Serenity, so he was willing to do everything for her. However, Serenity was independent and would not tell him everything for him to help her with. Thus, Zachary would feel that Serenity did not trust him and did not treat him as family.Duncan called Zachary again, but it went to the mailbox becau

    After witnessing her sister and Hank getting to know each other, falling in love, and then ending up in such an ugly divorce, Serenity felt that it was better to rely on herself than on others. Even if he was someone she shared a bed with, she could not be completely dependent on him.That was because the person who shared her bed might become a person who shared someone else’s bed at any time.“Are you calling me narrow-minded?”Zachary’s voice was low and chilly, like the weather in this cold winter month.He wanted to know everything about her because he cared about her.However, she did not take the initiative to tell him, saying that he was narrow-minded and that he got angry over trivial matters.Was this trivial? Even someone like Duncan knew about it, but Zachary only found out because Duncan told him.If Duncan did not tell him and he did not ask, she might have never told him.He cared about her, but she was not touched. Instead, she felt that it was useless to tell h

    A few minutes later, Serenity sat up from the bed and pondered. She then slid out of bed, began to pack her household goods, and took them back to her room.She would not sleep in his bed anymore.She angrily moved back to her room to sleep.Zachary was likewise still sulking.He received the message from Serenity and read it, but he did not reply. Instead, he deleted it instantly.He only had one thought in his mind, and that was how Serenity accused him of being narrow-minded and did not treat him as a family.Putting the phone on the desk, Zachary got up and paced back and forth in the office, incredibly annoyed.In the end, he went and made himself a cup of coffee.After drinking the coffee, he forced himself to calm down and got back to work.He intended to work through the night.Serenity was so angry that she tossed and turned, failing to fall asleep, but after an hour or so, she stopped being angry. It was not the first time he acted like this. If she got mad at him e

    “Don’t worry, Ms. Hunt. Take your time with breakfast. Your sister just called me and said that she sent Sonny to the store. Ms. Sox is already there. She told us to head directly to the store later. There’s no need to drop by her new place.”Serenity sighed in relief and sat down at the dining table.Mrs. Lane prepared sandwiches for her today with all kinds of fillings, as well as a pot of black coffee.Black coffee...Serenity took out her phone and photographed the pot of coffee, then sent it to the petty man.Unsurprisingly, Zachary did not reply to her.Serenity grumbled.“Are the sandwiches not good, Ms. Hunt?”Mrs. Lane heard Serenity grumble and thought the sandwiches she made were lousy. She asked, “What kind of sandwiches do you fancy? Tell me and I’ll make them for you tomorrow.”“I’m not a picky eater, Mrs. Lane. I like all kinds of sandwiches.“You sit down too. Let’s talk while we eat.”With Zachary not at home, Mrs. Lane was a lot more comfortable.Although

    “Besides, he caught a cold just from standing outside for half an hour without his jacket last time. He was only fine because he drank some spicy soup and took some medicine. Also, he has a strong body, because if it were other people, they would’ve fallen sick.“I just wanted to torture him a little. I don’t want him to die. I still need him so I can marry into the York family.”Layla smiled. “The York family has many young masters. It doesn’t have to be him. His cousins are of similar age as you, right?”“Peter is close to my age, but he already has a fiancée. Austin already has an arranged partner too. River and the rest are too young. Even if they were offered to me, I wouldn’t want them. I don’t like being the older one in a relationship.”Rowan was not even a legal adult yet.Layla said, “Okay. Old Mrs. York is a weird lady, but I can’t deny that she has a good eye for people.“I think Dylan isn’t even good enough for you. He can’t win against you in a fight, and his IQ and

    If Imogen hated the noise and excitement in the air, she would not have snooped around as Chameleon Fox. That identity allowed her to explore and have fun. Sometimes, she would step up to help someone or be a troublemaker and offend someone.Layla walked over and sat down. She watched Imogen’s charming face and smiled. “That York guy is here again. He’s waiting at the company’s entrance. He has a bouquet in his hands, and his new car is parked behind him.“It looks like he wants to invite you to have a dinner date with him.”Layla asked, “What is he trying to do? Are you still planning to accept him?”Dylan had been living in a hotel since his arrival in Huntington. He was already looking at houses but had not found one he liked yet.Grandma May suggested he learn from Remy and buy a house right beside the Doyle family's. It would make it more convenient for him to pursue Imogen.However, none of the Doyles’ neighbors intended to sell their houses. Those people did not lack money

    Imogen did not give Dylan a reply. She was still in the office.She did not even have time to look at his messages. She just wanted to finish her work as soon as possible so she could leave and eat.Did Dylan not need to work?He also had a company under his name. Even if he was not involved in managing York Corporation, he still had to manage his own company, right?Imogen was extremely busy.She had been overwhelmed with work since she resumed working yesterday. She would be at a meeting, on her way to see a client, handling documents, or solving issues at a branch company.Imogen barely had time to take a sip of water, let alone reply to Dylan’s messages.Seeing Dylan being so relaxed while she was working so hard put her in a bad mood. Her urge to ignore him gradually increased.As her parents had mentioned, she had other men to choose from. Dylan was not her only option.She could fall in love with someone else.Even if Imogen were to choose Dylan in the end, she would m

    However, they had heard that this man had previously pursued Imogen, and those who had a good memory and had seen Dylan before, had already recognized him.When Imogen seemed a bit interested, this man then said he did not love her and went to pursue someone else. After failing to win over that person, he backtracked to pursue their vice president once more. This behavior left many people with a bad impression of Dylan.What did he take their vice president for?It was worth noting that Imogen was the chairman’s niece and the president’s sister. The chairman treated his own daughter and niece the same, and in the Doyle family, she was very much favored by her elders. The Doyles were one of the top families in Huntington, and as part of it, Imogen did not have to worry about finding a husband.Dylan ignored the looks people gave him. His gaze fixed on the cars coming out of the Davidson Group building, afraid that if he blinked, Imogen would pass him by.He watched the employees le

    Duncan called Serenity to inform her that he was taking Sonny to the Lewises’ for dinner and would send him back later. Naturally, Serenity had no objections. With her nephew being well taken care of by Duncan, Serenity had time to go shopping with Jasmine. Jasmine was buying baby supplies as she was eight months pregnant and it was high time to prepare for the baby’s arrival. Watching Jasmine pick up items for her baby made Serenity feel the itch, and she ended up buying a ton of stuff for both her baby and Sonny.In the evening, Zachary and Josh came to pick up their wives.They both managed to cancel their appointments, leaving the task of handling work engagements to Callum and other senior executives. The two men who were once the busiest had now become the ones who most enjoyed slacking off.“Why did you buy so much? Where’s Sonny?” Zachary asked as he walked toward Serenity when he got out of the car. He saw his wife and her bodyguards carrying a bunch of shopping bags. T

    Olivia cursed Duncan one last time. “You won’t have a good ending bullying the weak!” she spat before she was pulled away by her husband.Duncan watched them leave, his expression cold. “Dunc, don't be angry. My grandmom is always like that. When Lucas wanted my toys before, I cried and refused to let him take them. My mom wouldn’t let him either, but she always scolded my mom. I still remember that.”Sonny could vaguely remember some things from when he was two years old. It had only been a little over two years since then, after all.As he comforted Duncan, he gently touched Duncan's face, speaking softly, “Aunt Ser says we shouldn’t get too angry. If we get too angry, we’ll grow old faster. I don’t want you to get old, Dunc. I want you to stay just like this forever.“Dunc, please don’t be mad anymore. I won’t eat the fried chicken my grandmom buys for me anymore.”Duncan could not help but feel both amused and heartbroken for both Sonny and Liberty, who had been mistreated b

    “I don’t want to. I want to be with Dunc.”Sonny did not want his grandmother to carry him. He turned to Olivia and said, “Aunt Lili treated me when I was sick and she said my throat got infected because I ate fried chicken, and that’s why I had a fever. She told me not to eat fried chicken anymore.“Aunt Ser also said that when I feel better, she’ll fry it for me herself. It’s safer than the fried chicken bought from outside, but I still can only eat a little bit, not too much.“Grandmom, I don’t want to eat fast food bought from outside anymore. You guys shouldn’t blame Dunc. He’s really good to me and if you scold him, I won’t like you anymore.”Sonny did not really have any affection for his grandparents. They had always taken his cousin Lucas’s side. Whatever toys he had or food he liked, Olivia would take them away to give to Lucas. He did not like Lucas, and he did not like Grandmom either. Even though his grandparents were nicer to him now, Sonny still spent very little t

    Olivia immediately retracted her hand when she saw Duncan’s cold glance. Not daring to forcefully take Sonny from him, she awkwardly smiled and said to Duncan, “Mr. Lewis, can we have a word with Sonny?”“You can ask Sonny. If he’s happy to, that’s fine,” Duncan said coldly, giving Luke’s bag a glance before addressing both of them. “Mr. and Mrs. Brown, Sonny had a fever yesterday, which the doctor said was due to a throat infection. You two took him to eat a lot of fried chicken and fries that day, which caused the infection.“Today, you brought him more fast food. If Sonny eats that, he might have a fever again. Please try to avoid giving him such heavy foods in the future.”Olivia immediately became anxious, reaching out to touch Sonny’s forehead. “Has Sonny recovered from the fever? Are you still feeling unwell? Why didn’t you take a day off from preschool?“It’s fine to do that, you know. There’s no need to rush back to school. Plus, Sonny doesn’t eat much. We did take him to

    “I don’t understand what Liberty is thinking, leaving Sonny in Wiltspoon. When she got Sonny’s custody, she should have taken him with her,” Olivia muttered.She really wanted her son to file another lawsuit and regain custody of Sonny, but out of consideration for Sonny’s future, she could not do that. Plus, her son would not listen to her anyway.“Liberty went to Jensburg. She’s probably still dealing with a lot of trouble over there and we don’t understand the situation. If she could, she would have taken Sonny with her. She values Sonny’s education a lot, and Sonny has been well-educated under her care,” Luke spoke more objectively.Although he did not like Duncan, he could see that Duncan really cared for Sonny. Sonny was very attached to Serenity because she had raised him. That was natural, and it probably had nothing to do with whether Duncan was a good stepfather or not. Luke did not say this out loud to avoid being scolded by his wife for siding with Duncan.“Here comes
