Chapter 740

Author: Gu Lingfei
“Not yet. The beans will have to be sun-dried before being pickled.”

Serenity stayed away from the kitchen because it was too spicy. She glanced around the house once but did not see Sonny or Mrs. Lane, and asked, “Did Mrs. Lane take Sonny out?”

“Yeah, Sonny doesn’t like the spiciness and told Mrs. Lane to take him out for a walk. They’ll be back later for dinner. Seren, why did you come at this time? Don’t you need to cook for Zachary? You also mentioned that you were out to get an evening dress. Have you bought one?”

Serenity walked into her sister’s small kitchen and helped to wash the vegetables while replying, “I bought a few dresses. My mother-in-law helped me choose. She has really good taste. The gowns she selected were all really beautiful.”

However, they cost a bomb.

She secretly asked the clerk and found out that if she were to buy the dresses her mother-in-law had chosen, she would only be able to buy two or three pieces at most.

Although it was Zachary’s money, Seren

    Before Hank and his wife divorced, Olivia felt that her son had good taste when she saw Jessica. Not only did she not think that Hank was wrong to betray his family, she felt he was still competent to be able to attract a young and lovely girl like Jessica despite already being a husband and father.Only when Olivia and Jessica lived under the same roof did she realize that life with Liberty was better.Jessica was like a pretty vase, and Olivia looked down on her.However, Jessica was exceptionally provocative and knew how to act pampered.Even if Olivia and Chelsea teamed up to deal with Jessica, they were no match for her. That fox would act like a spoiled brat in front of Hank and play the part of a pitiful maiden so he would feel sorry for her.Olivia had chest pains from feeling angry just thinking about that scene.“Where’s your beloved daughter? Don’t you and your daughter love to get together to chitchat? Go complain to your daughter instead.”Olivia was silent for a mo

    “That really opened up my eyes. They’re not marrying their daughter off but selling her. If they want us to give so much for the bride price, they should give at least a few hundred thousand as the dowry as well. Instead, they’ll only give us a few bedding sets and an e-bike! An e-bike!“She’s no match for your sister. Your sister shelled out hundreds of thousands for the house renovation. You were still a freshman when your sister and Hank got married, but you used all your assets to buy your sister furniture as her dowry. However, Jessica didn’t pay a penny. She only knows how to spend Hank’s money.”Serenity sneered in her heart. ‘My sister is better than Jessica, but Hank still cheated on her.‘The Brown family deserves someone like Jessica.‘Now that the Browns have met the Yates family, who are even more selfish than they are... Hehe. Their lives will soon be filled with excitement.‘I really want to live near them so I can watch the drama unfold between their families every

    After chasing Olivia away, Serenity said to her sister, “If she ever comes again, don’t let her in. Just move a stool and sit at the door, make a pot of tea, and enjoy some snacks.“Think of her chatter as watching a good show.”As Zachary said, there was no need to bother themselves with Olivia if she did not come to take Sonny away. Only by listening to her complaints could they find out how Hank and Jessica were doing.“I don’t even want to listen to her.”Liberty used her actions to prove that she really did not want anything to do with her former mother-in-law.No one knew what Olivia was thinking about coming over once every couple of days to vent to Liberty.By logic, Olivia should be afraid to let Liberty know that their family was in shambles. Yet, she took the initiative to come over and update Liberty about her son and Jessica.Did she think Liberty would change her mind?It was laughable.“What are you cooking, Seren? I smell something burning.”“Oh! My dish!”Se

    Jasmine and Drake looked fairly alike with both having attractive physical appearances. Drake was still young and could pass off as a high school student.“That can’t be. At first, everyone thought Mr. York might like men but that was false too. He even has a wife now.”Jasmine whispered, “Maybe it’s because Josh is treating my brother exceptionally well. He basically spoils Drake. He’s even willing to lend Drake his most beloved sports car. You know there are two things in this world that men will never share—his car and his wife.“I just think that, well, Josh has feelings for my brother. Help me ask. If he really swings the other way, I can’t let him approach Drake again in the future.”Serenity was speechless. “Why haven’t you considered that Mr. Bucham carried an ulterior motive? His true target is you.”Josh wanted to appeal to Drake and get him to help.For example, if he invited Drake to dinner, Jasmine might follow because she felt worried.Jasmine was at a loss for wor

    “I dare say the whole of Wiltspoon is gossiping about it, wanting to know the true face of Mr. York’s wife and how she won his heart.”Jasmine laughed and added, “I think everyone wants to learn from her on how to conquer men. Mr. York was notoriously difficult to take down, but she succeeded, which means she’s the best among us women. We can learn from her the art of managing our husbands.“Especially you, Seren. You already have a husband, and your man is too handsome. There must be many people outside who adore him. If it weren’t for his long face and serious expression all day, there would be admirers provoking you every day.“You have to learn how to control your husband well from Mrs. York so your husband will only love you in his life and not cheat.”Serenity paused before agreeing, “You’re right. I have to protect my man. I wonder if we’ll be able to meet Mrs. York.”“We should be able to see her if we arrive early. With Mr. Bucham’s status, I think we can ride on his coat

    Zachary took Serenity’s hand and said in a low voice, “Seren, you look stunning tonight. Come, I’ll take you inside.”Serenity greeted Josh with a nod before following Zachary into the building.Josh wanted to take the Sox siblings in, but Drake refused and said, “This is your company’s annual dinner. I don’t work here, and I’m not a woman, so I can’t be your companion. I won’t go in.“I’ll return to take my sister home when dinner is over.”Josh did not want Drake to follow, but he was not obvious about it. Instead, he repeatedly persuaded Drake to come in together and was about to reach out to pull him.“Mr. Bucham, since Drake doesn’t want to go in, don’t force him. Drake, you go hang out with your friends and I’ll send you a message when I want you to come over.”Serenity mentioned that Josh approached Drake with an ulterior motive and his real target was her.However, when she saw Josh behaving enthusiastically about her brother, she could not help but still worry if Josh w

    Jasmine was rendered speechless by what Josh had just said.After a long while, she said, “Did I ask you that during our blind date? I can’t recall. I only remember you held a rose in your mouth and rode a bike there that day.“You even tried to give me the rose that you held in your mouth. Fortunately, I watched you arrive, or I would’ve accepted the rose. Speaking of which, you weren’t sincere at all. If you were, you would’ve told me then that you were from the Bucham family.”If she knew that Josh was from the mysterious Bucham family of Wiltspoon, she would never have gone on the blind date with him.Josh grumbled in his heart, ‘It was because I saw my boss conceal his identity to get married. Although he deceived his wife, he could examine her character. If Serenity fell in love with Zachary, he could be sure that she fell for him as a person, not because of his identity or status.’Therefore, Josh followed in Zachary’s footsteps.Later, when he saw how Zachary was afraid o

    Josh was speechless.Zachary and Serenity, who were walking in front of them, were exchanging sweet nothings.Realizing that Josh and Jasmine were not following, Serenity turned her head and noticed that the pair seemed to be arguing. “Zachary, why do Mr. Bucham and Jasmine look like they’re fighting?”Zachary glanced at his friend and said lightly, “No, Mr. Bucham has a good temper.”If the people who were suppressed by Josh before were present, they would be speechless right now.If Josh’s temper was labeled good, there would be no one in this world with a bad temper.“Don’t mind them. Let’s go.”Zachary let Serenity continue holding his arm. The couple was very close.“Zachary, will your CEO’s wife be coming as well?”“Why?”“Nothing. I just wanted to see her. I wonder if I’ll have a chance to talk to her.”She had to befriend Mrs. York first before she could ask her about her husband-managing skills.Zachary said calmly, “You’re a step too late.

    Ever since Belinda passed away, they were worried their cruel sister would cancel their bank cards. Therefore, they withdrew all the remaining money from the accounts from which they received their monthly allowance. Adrian rarely used the money on that particular card of his because it was a meager sum to him. Tens to hundreds of thousands a month was not even enough to buy a high-quality watch. In the past, he would only transfer the money from that card to another account every one or two years. Otherwise, he would withdraw the money and use it to flirt with women; cash could always draw many gorgeous women to him. Not many people could resist someone who could take out bundles of cash. Adrian recalled that he had withdrawn a few million dollars. He kept it all in a safe. When their mother was still alive, they spent money extravagantly. When they switched cars, they would get cars that cost millions and pay for them in full. They also made full payment when buying houses.

    Jacob said, “Add one more million to it and make it six. My brother and I will get three million each. We won't do the job if you offer anything less than this.“After all, we’re the ones solving a problem for you guys. The benefits you’ll obtain from this are more than ten times the amount you’re offering us.“Besides, you three are adamant about killing Caroline, not us. We might even go to prison for this.“If we get three million each, we can consider helping you out.”Michael added, “That’s right. We may be poor, but our lives aren’t worth any less. There’s no such thing as wanting us to sacrifice our lives for you without giving us money.”Adrian went to take a fine bottle of wine and poured a glass each for Jacob and Michael. Meanwhile, he took a sip of his juice and told them, “We won’t be drinking alcohol since we have to drive and go to work. This is a precious wine I’ve been keeping. It’s sold for a high price outside.“Help yourselves to it. If you think it’s good,

    It could not satisfy their appetites. After all, the Clark brothers were asking them to commit a crime. If they were caught, they had to pay the price and go to jail for several years. Losing their freedom for a few years in exchange for a million dollars was not worth it at all. “Mr. Adrian, we do hate Caroline, but she won’t do anything to us if we remain in the countryside away from Jensburg and avoid offending her.“We can still live a peaceful life. Although we’ll face financial difficulties, we can still afford basic necessities and be free.“You guys are the ones in a rush to eliminate Caroline. Her existence affects your benefits the most. Of course, you can choose to accept reality by resigning from Fisher Enterprise, selling your assets, and leaving Jensburg.“If you flee to the countryside like us, you can enjoy a comfortable life away from Caroline’s control. You won’t have to reward us for doing your bidding and can save that money.”Jacob could accept not gett

    Twenty million dollars!It was the Clark brothers’ turn to exchange glances. They did not expect Jacob and Michael to name such a high price. While they could pay that amount, they did not want to hand the money to Jacob and Michael. After all, it was no longer a small sum to them, given their situation. Adrian was nervous that he would have to fork out the money himself. While he had significantly more assets than an ordinary person, most were fixed assets, and he only had a few tens of millions of savings. Therefore, he was unwilling to pay twenty million dollars out of the blue. After exchanging glances, Adrian said, “Twenty million is too much. We don’t have that much. We may be wealthy people to you, but it’s all fake. We aren’t as rich as you think.“You’re aware of the Fishers family rules—only daughters can be the successors. Sons can’t even take on the Fisher surname, let alone inherit the family assets.“When my mom was alive, she would support us financially in

    “If the plan fails, we have a backup plan—hit her bodyguards’ car and force her car to stop. That way, you two can take Caroline away and leave the rest up to us.”Adrian was prepared for various scenarios.If the car accident did not succeed, then they would first eliminate Caroline’s bodyguards. Without them, and with Darren on a business trip, they could easily take down Caroline, who did not know how to fight. After kidnapping her, they would kill and cut her to pieces before throwing her into the sea. No one would be able to find her. If Caroline were dead, the inheritance from Belinda would belong to the Clark brothers. They still could not take over Fisher Enterprise and the Fisher family or do anything to Liberty. However, with Caroline dead, there would be no one to teach the new and inexperienced Liberty. Whether Liberty could hold her ground was an unknown variable. After a discussion between Adrian and his brothers, they set two goals. Firstly, they would kill Car

    “Caroline will definitely receive retribution for this.”Adrian said with spite, “I shall see how she meets her death. The people in Wiltspoon will kill her sooner or later.“Does she think they’ll treat her well just because she betrayed her family? They despise us. She’s still my parents’ biological daughter. There’s no way she can be spared.”“You’re absolutely right.”The three men kept cursing Caroline throughout their journey. Upon arriving at Adrian’s villa, he parked the car. Jacob and Michael looked around after getting out of the vehicle. They thought Adrian’s place was luxurious. Adrian mentioned it was a small place, but it was already a lavish place to them. It was many times bigger than their house in the countryside. Adrian invited Jacob and Michael into the villa and they followed suit.Jacob whispered to Michael, “The Clark brothers are fighting with Caroline for the inheritance, Michael. They must be up to no good, calling us here.“No matter what request

    “Although Caroline is our biological sister, she doesn’t treat us as her brothers. We only recognize Celine as our sister. I really wish we could turn back time.“We shouldn’t have allowed Caroline to return to the Fisher family. Ever since she came back, the family had been declining. Many things had happened. My mom’s dead, and my dad’s crippled. All of these are related to her.“Caroline’s an ungrateful bitch. I can’t believe she sided with the people from Wiltspoon. Even now, she’s constantly in contact with them and giving away Fisher Enterprise.“It should’ve belonged to Celine.”Jacob and Michael stayed quiet. They had known for a long time that their biological sister was not Caroline but Celine, the then-successor of the Fisher family. Therefore, they treated Caroline badly and often abused her.Although Caroline had learned to put up resistance after growing up, she was still bullied by Jacob and Michael.She hated them. She did not know the truth in the past and

    The two men were Celine’s biological brothers, Jacob and Michael Dott. Adrian nodded. “That’s good to hear. Grieving is useless. Avenging Celine and seeking justice is more important.”Jacob and Michael remained silent. They could not do much. When their father was still the Fishers’ butler, he received a high salary with excellent benefits; the Dotts were the wealthiest family in their town. Since their family was rich, the brothers never put effort into studying. They spent time with questionable friends and led a life of debauchery. Jacob and Michael only matured after marrying and having kids. However, their father was already in prison. Meanwhile, Caroline, whom they used to abuse, had returned to the Fisher family. Celine had refused to return to the Dott family and simply gave them some money. Jacob and Michael had built houses in their town and furnished them well. The money they used was from Caroline and their parents’ savings. Since then, their financial crisi

    In the afternoon, Duncan fetched Liberty from Fisher Enterprise for dinner. Caroline stood at the building entrance, watching Liberty and Duncan leave. She was envious. She missed Darren. Although he was still following her, he could not expose himself before others. She was not used to it. Nevertheless, she had to endure it to lure the Clark brothers into her trap. She thought, ‘Please make your move soon, brothers. Don’t keep me waiting.’At that moment, Adrian and his brothers exited the elevator. They were discussing something as they walked. When they saw Caroline standing at the entrance, they paused for a moment. However, they quickly pretended they did not see her and walked past her.Soon, three cars left the company.Caroline stood there for a few more minutes before heading to the parking lot. Her personal bodyguards were waiting at her car. They quickly went to her when they spotted her, while one of them opened the door for her. After Adrian left the com
