Chapter 618

Author: Gu Lingfei
“Tell me, Hank. Did you offend all your clients? What did you do?”

Hank managed to secure plenty of business and made a lot of money for the company. He entered Waltham Electronics as soon as he graduated and worked here for many years, so he was considered a tenured employee. The boss trusted and relied heavily on him.

There were numerous managers in the company, but Hank was the youngest.

He was promoted to the position of a manager because he brought great profits to the company. Although the management was jealous, they could not say anything about it.

The boss attached great importance to Hank. If he was invited to a business reception but was unavailable to attend, he would ask Hank to go in his stead to see the world and attract more customers for the company.

Hank did not let him down either. After attending the business reception, he indeed got to sign many more orders for the company.

However, now, all the orders that Hank signed were either canceled or had their cooper

    Olivia was in deep remorse after she found out that Liberty had an aunt who married into a wealthy family.She should not have let her son divorce.If her son did not divorce, he could rely on nepotism to work in Stone Group, and his income would grow even higher.Maybe he could even earn tens of millions a year.She advised her son to pursue Liberty again and remarry Liberty but was sternly rejected. Jessica was downright displeased.Olivia stopped proposing the idea explicitly and thought of using her grandson instead.She thought of making her son pick up Sonny often, and then send Sonny back to Liberty. That way, Hank would be able to meet Liberty frequently. They had known each other for twelve years and had a son connecting them, so maybe they would be able to remarry after they calmed down.“Mom, tell Chelsea to drive you to Serenity’s store if you miss Sonny. There’s no need to pick Sonny up. You guys can’t coax him anyway. What if you scare him again?”Hank knew what h

    Serenity did not want her sister to worry.Liberty saw that Serenity looked normal, so she was relieved and said, “Zachary treats you very well. I think he won’t quarrel with you over something trivial. I’m relieved that you two didn’t get into a fight.”Serenity thought in her heart, ‘As it turned out, he actually did quarrel with me over something trivial.’He ignored her the whole day.She refused to take the initiative to be friendly with him again.She did not feel like she was at fault.The first time they fought, she did not have feelings for him. The second time, when he saw Shawn confess to her, she did not think it through and panicked, chasing him all the way to his office to offer him an explanation.Now, she felt incredibly upset.Maybe it was because she had grown some feelings for him.“Seren, I’ll take Sonny home. I’ve decided to open a store. I have to start planning.”“Okay, take Mrs. Lane with you so that Sonny doesn’t bother you.”Liberty accepted her sis

    “Don’t go out, Seren. I’ll deal with him,” Jasmine said before rushing to the entrance of the bookshop to stop Shawn. Grabbing him by the arm, Jasmine yanked him away. “Jas.” Forced to keep up with his cousin’s footsteps, Shawn tried to put a brake on the pulling, but Jasmine dragged him all the way to his car with all her might. “Unlock the car door!” Jasmine ordered with a stern face. Shawn gave her a rather disgruntled look.“Jas.” “I said, unlock the car door!” Jasmine sternly commanded. Although she was shorter than Shawn, she stood her ground against the man. Her chilly eyes were fixated on Shawn until the latter unlocked the door. Jasmine opened the door and stuffed him into the car. “Jas, I’m here for you, not Serenity.” Forced to take the passenger seat, Shawn watched as his cousin buckled him up. “Sit tight and don’t get out of the car!” Jasmine ordered and shut the car door before getting into the car from the other side. She moved quickly and decisi

    Jasmine had always had Shawn’s back through thick and thin. His cousin was in the position to give him the upper hand at getting the woman of his dreams. However, not only was Jasmine not supportive, but she was against it for the first time ever. She stopped him and even yelled at him. Shawn was in agony, unable to obtain the woman he loved. The fact that his closest cousin did not support him only added to the pain. “I’m all ears if you want to talk to me about your work. You can call me or go to my place. I’m not working tomorrow since it’s the weekend. What do you want to talk about? I can give you the whole day to pour out your feelings.“I mean, of course, things aren’t going well for you at work. Is your focus on your work? All you think about is pestering Serenity. I told you a million times. Serenity’s married and doesn’t have that kind of feelings for you. What’s the point of getting all over her face? “You’re only chipping away what’s left of your friendship with he

    Jasmine dashed all the way to Shawn’s family home. After pulling up, she sent a text message, asking Serenity to wait for her at the shop. She would be back in half an hour. [Sure.] Serenity replied with a meme. Mrs. Lowe was about to leave home for a social gathering. Her nights were either filled with game nights, social events, or accompanying her husband to business dinners. Seeing that her son’s ride was parked outside the house, Mrs. Lowe was taken aback by her niece getting out of the car. She smiled. “Jasmine, what brings you here with Shawn?” Mrs. Lowe then said to her son who had stepped out of the car. “Your dad said that you disappeared right after work. Shawn, your father’s busier than ever. You should be helping him.” Her husband mentioned that the companies under Lowe Enterprise that had partnerships with York Corporation previously were discontinued for some reason. York Corporation ended these partnerships on their accord. Out of the few projects under ta

    “Why isn’t my uncle back yet?” “He’s at a business dinner. He won’t be back until midnight.” Shawn’s younger sister was still in college. Now that it was winter break, she went traveling with her friends and would be back before the new year. There was no one else at the house. The aunt and niece took a seat on the sofa while Shawn sat beside the pair. He nervously stared at his mother. “What do you want to talk to me about, Jas?” “Aunt Rachel, I want to first put it out there that this is not Serenity’s fault. Please listen to what I have to say before getting mad. You can be mad at your son, but don’t take it out on Serenity.” Jasmine had to first give her aunt a fair warning and assure Serenity’s safety. “I won’t come over to your place if you take it out on Serenity, Aunt Rachel.” Mrs. Lowe replied with a smile, “What is it? You make it sound so somber. Why would I take it out on Serenity? Serenity has been friends with you for years. I watched her grow up. She’s

    “Aunt Rachel, I didn’t drive and took Shawn’s car here. It’d be great if you could arrange for the chauffeur to drive me back to the shop.” Holding back her anger, Mrs. Lowe summoned a maid to arrange the ride for Jasmine with the chauffeur. Once Jasmine was gone, Mrs. Lowe slapped her son and lashed out, “Shawn, are you trying to infuriate me? Serenity is three years older than you. She doesn’t come from a good family. Are you blind to fall for her?” “Aren’t you fond of Serenity, Mom?“So what if she’s older? It’s not like she’s thirty years older than I am. How is it that she doesn’t come from a good family? Her family isn’t involved in the mafia. She comes from a family of farmers, not criminals.” Mrs. Lowe grimaced. “I like her and see her as another niece of mine because of Jasmine. I’m only fond of her on the condition that she doesn’t get involved with you.“I wouldn’t have allowed you two to spend time together had I known what was going on in your head.“You better

    There were certain things that although Shawn was unwilling to face, he was aware of them. Serenity did not have an influential figure to lean on, but his mother was Mrs. Lowe. The Lowes were considerably wealthier and more powerful than Serenity. There was no way Serenity could survive against his mother’s tactics. The only thing left to do would be to leave Wiltspoon. “I don’t want you to try. You must let go of your feelings for her!” Mrs. Lowe ordered. Keeping to her word, Mrs. Lowe summoned two bodyguards and instructed them, “You are to follow Shawn wherever he goes from now on. Report to me if he ever goes near Wiltspoon School.” Shawn turned ashen. Meanwhile, the Lowes’ chauffeur drove Jasmine to the shop. Serenity had moved all the display racks into the shops and packed up her crafting tools and materials. She even cleared the unfinished groceries out of the fridge and bagged them along with the snacks. She was ready to bring them all back to her house. The sh

    Tati had made it clear that she did not love Austin, and purely admired him. Why was Isabella looking at her like that? Austin’s fiancée would never be her. If it were, Austin would have treated her differently. So who on earth was Austin’s fiancee?Why would Old Mrs. York choose someone from Windermere for him?Austin came to be a chef before pursuing his future wife. Which city in Windermere was his fiancée from? Was it Satbury?If it were Satbury, which elite daughter could it be?There were many elite daughters in Satbury, but not many were superior to the O’Connor daughters. Tati recalled Austin’s special treatment toward Isabella. A thought crossed her mind, ‘Is Isabella the lady Old Mrs. York has chosen for Austin?’“Tati, I want to discuss something work-related with you.”Isabella thought Tati remained silent because of Austin’s news. Therefore, she used work as an excuse and brought Tati to the study on the second floor. After closing the door, Isabella poured

    Louis and Phillip were not the only ones worried. Even Delphine and the rest were anxious too. While they did think it was inappropriate for someone of Austin’s status to be their chef, the food he made was truly delicious. They had already gotten used to his cooking. If he were to leave, they would have to adjust their tastes to another chef’s cooking. Tati had even more concerns. Isabella admired capable people. Austin was highly skilled in cooking and had a head for business too. Moreover, he was a young master of a wealthy family. That made him more suitable for Isabella. Would Isabella be attracted?Isabella probably could feel how differently he treated her, right?“Did you chase Austin away, Isa? Why didn’t he come back with you?”Louis continued asking questions. He was worried that Isabella might have fired Austin. Not only could Austin make delicious food, but he would also play with the boys. Louis and Phillip really liked Austin. They thought he was fun,

    Austin knew her question was related to Tati.He was aware of Tati’s admiration for him.Nevertheless, he recognized Tati’s feelings as pure admiration. On the contrary, Tati must have noticed that he treated Isabella differently. She probably told Isabella about it in private, but Isabella simply did not have plans for marriage due to her heavy responsibilities. Austin said with certainty, “No. Although I haven’t succeeded in pursuing her, I’ve set my heart on her. She’s my fiancée, and she’ll become my wife in the future. The York family doesn’t allow divorce unless our wives cheat on us. However, that definitely won’t happen.“Every woman Nana chose has a good character and values.“I’ll be loyal to my marriage and family. I’ll only love my only wife for my entire life. How outstanding other women are is none of my business.”Austin did not want to be like Dylan. He would rather spend more time inventing recipes. Isabella said with a hint of regret, “Okay.”She had to te

    Isabella could not find anyone who suited her tastes in Satbury. She knew the city was filled with talented young men, but none made her heart race. Their goal was usually the O’Connor family business. The men knew Louis was young and that Isabella was the head of the family. If they could win her heart, it would be equivalent to conquering the O’Connor family. From there, they could gradually swallow the family whole. Isabella dared not date anyone. She was scared of falling into someone’s trap. She would not let her feelings show, even if she had a crush on someone.“Many people are aiming for my family’s status and wealth. I dare not date or get married for fear that I’d destroy the family once and for all. Those people will go to great lengths for money and power.”Isabella was even wary of young masters of wealthy families, let alone ambitious men from inferior backgrounds. “I know Nana is doing this for us. She had chosen our wives. Our parents didn’t need to worry

    Isabella knew it would not be that quick. By the time Louis could take over, which would be twenty years later, she would already be close to fifty years old. If she got married and had children within the next two years, her children could inherit her businesses a few years after Louis took over the family business. That way, she could finally retire for good. “Austin, you’re aware that I sent someone to Wiltspoon to investigate your background, right? There was no information about you being a young master of the Yorks. Was it because you didn’t want me to know about it?”“No.”Austin said honestly, “I wasn’t aware. Zachary was the one who told me that you investigated me twice. You couldn’t find the connection between me and York Corporation because Zachary covered it up for me.“He knew that I was here to cook and improve my skills. If you knew I was a young master of the wealthiest family in Wiltspoon, you might not have hired me as your private chef. If so, I wouldn’t be

    Isabella smiled and said, “If the person taking over the family business doesn’t have true ability, they won’t be able to bear the responsibility. In this way, they can still prove themselves. Of course, starting a business from scratch and inheriting from a generation or two back is different.“For those who are supported by their family, no matter how many achievements they have, others will say they relied on their family’s support. If they fail, people will call them useless and a waste, and that family wealth will never last more than three generations. They’ll just wait for your family to go bankrupt.“So, without real ability, no one can take over the family business.”Austin was silent for a moment before responding, “What you say is true. My eldest brother, for example, is very capable. Although we could all take on the responsibility, none of us is as steady as he is. He’s the real anchor of our family. With him around, we don’t have to worry even if the sky falls.“Becau

    Oh, right. Ruth mentioned that the York family elders were very open-minded.Open-minded elders and a good family culture were what cultivated outstanding children. It was little wonder that Austin was exceptional and bore such an impressive demeanor. It turned out that he was from a prestigious family.“Isa, what's wrong with Austin? Can we start eating now?”Louis and Phillip were completely confused. All they knew was Austin was not from a simple family, and that he was very capable. Even Ruth had shaken hands with him.The two boys were too young to understand anything besides that. They were just hungry and wanted to eat. It was cold, and the barbecue was very comforting to eat hot off the grill.Isabella smiled and said, “All you two think about is eating. Well, the meat and vegetables are all cooked, so we can start eating now.”As she spoke, she grabbed some meat, shrimp, and vegetables for her baby brothers. Then, she began eating, and everyone followed suit.Ruth too

    After Austin left, Isabella asked her friend, "Ruth, do you know the Wiltspoon Yorks? Is Austin really one of them?"“You’ve never been to Wiltspoon, Isabella, and it's so far away. Plus your family doesn't have business there, so it's normal you don't know much about them. I was there for half a month for a trip, and my in-laws have business there.“Last time, when I went on a business trip with my husband, we heard a lot of gossip and rumors related to the York family.“In Wiltspoon, there are several prominent families, but the wealthiest and most powerful is the York family. York Corporation holds the same status in the business world of Wiltspoon as your family does here.”Ruth was introducing the York family to everyone, giving them a preliminary understanding of the family. After that explanation, Ruth added, “The York family has a great family culture to boot. The men in their family are all very loyal. Once they marry, they will remain loyal to their wife and family for

    “Your family? As in, Wiltspoon’s York Corporation? Is that your family’s company?” Ruth asked in shock. She looked at Austin, disbelief written all over her face. The members of the O'Connor family were all watching the two of them.“Yeah, that’s my family's company. Our ancestors were good enough to build a strong foundation my elder brother now manages.”“Where do you fall in the order of your siblings and cousins?” Ruth had once traveled to Wiltspoon with her husband for a business trip and had spent half a month there, so she knew a bit about the most prominent family in Wiltspoon. She had also been deeply impressed by the good values the Yorks had. She had heard that the York sons were all exceptional, talented individuals, and indeed, Austin was exceptionally handsome—so much so that it could even incur a god’s jealousy. But how did a young master of the York family end up working as a chef for the O'Connor family?Though York Corporation was based in Wiltspoon, its fina
