Chapter 830

Author: Gu Lingfei
Sonny refused Duncan and slid out of bed himself, looking for his mother while crying. When he searched the house but still did not find Liberty, he cried even harder.

“Sonny, do you want some candy? Don’t cry. Dunc will give you candy.”

Duncan tried to coax him.

“I don’t want candy. I want Mommy...”

“I’ll bring you outside and buy you a windmill, okay?”

“I don’t want windmill. I want Mommy...”

Sonny’s cries grew louder.

Duncan was unable to soothe Sonny no matter how he tried. He did not know how to coax children.

In the end, he took out his cell phone, unlocked it, and handed it to Sonny. “Don’t cry, okay? Come here, I’ll let you play with my phone. We can watch cartoons.”

Sonny slapped his phone away with one hand.

“I don’t want phone.”

Duncan scratched his head, feeling a headache. “I thought children these days could be dealt with easily if they have a phone to play with.”

Sonny did not want to play with his phone.

However, there were many harmful effects of children

This book is too repetitive and it’s taking long to get to the point. Am actually loosing interest and tired of reading this book. Stop prolonging and get to the point. Serenity’s anger is overly excessive and unrealistic too! Not a very good book overall.

    “You don’t need to thank me. I’m mainly concerned about Zachary and his wife,” Duncan said frankly, seemingly worried that Liberty would misunderstand him.“You went to visit them, so how are they now?” Duncan asked concernedly.Liberty sighed before she said, “You and Zachary go a long way back, don’t you? In fact, both of you are good friends and aren’t simply related in business. Mr. Lewis, even you side with Zachary to deceive us.“You know Zachary’s temper more than I do. He obstinately insists that things will be fine as long as he keeps Seren there. He won’t even allow Seren to walk out of his villa. I noticed that he’s quite weary, whereas Seren is slightly disheartened.”Duncan opened his mouth as he wanted to speak up for his good friend. However, he had no idea what to say. He had said good things about him countless times. He said so much that he felt thirsty and drank quite a lot of water at Liberty’s place.“Zachary has to come around to it now, otherwise we won’t be

Hank did suspect that before, but Zachary denied it.In the end, Zachary was really that Mr. Zachary York.When Jessica learned the news, she was madly jealous. She was jealous of how fortunate Serenity was to be able to rise from rags to riches. Previously, Jessica was also jealous when she found out that Mrs. Stone was Liberty and her sister’s aunt.Jessica had been consumed by jealousy the entire afternoon, which caused Hank to feel unhappy.It was Serenity’s business to marry Zachary. Was Jessica jealous because she looked down on Hank?“Liberty!”Hank finally spoke and started bombarding questions at Liberty, “Is that man Mr. Lewis? Mr. Lewis walked out of your house. What did both of you do? I

    Liberty stared at her ex-husband grimly and said, “Serenity is too busy to meddle in your affairs. Now that your career hasn’t been smooth, it shows that there are issues with your ability. Don’t shift the blame onto other people. You should identify your own problem.”Only now did her sister find out that she was married to Zachary. How would her sister have the time to trick Hank?“It must be either Serenity’s or Zachary’s doing. I’m sure Serenity had Zachary trick me, which caused Jessica and me to be down on our luck at work.”Hank’s eyes were filled with hatred.He was no fool. Just as he divorced Liberty, his career took a downward spiral. Every day, his boss would tell him off. With all his reward this month deducted, he could only receive his basic salary. He could no longer stay in Waltham Electronics.Currently, everyone in the company was looking forward to his leaving.If no one had tricked him, his life would not have gone downhill all of a sudden, considering that h

    Jessica was aware that Hank attended a social function, so he must have drunk a lot of alcohol. She called to remind him to drive carefully on the road, but she did not remind him not to drive after he had alcohol.Hank grew upset when comparing Jessica with Liberty.All he could do was delude himself. ‘Jessica is still young, so she doesn’t know how to be concerned about others. She’ll gradually get better at this.’Hank fixed his eyes on Liberty’s rented apartment for a long time before he drove away. He even deliberately went to a florist’s shop to buy a bouquet of flowers and brought it home.He returned to his rented apartment and opened the door, only to see his mother seated on the couch with a furious look. His father and Jessica were nowhere to be seen in the living room.Chelsea’s family had returned to their hometown after the kids’ school reopened.However, both Chelsea and his brother-in-law lost their jobs. They requested Hank to look for jobs for them.At this poi

    “Hank, you’ve forgotten about me after marrying your wife, huh? This isn’t how you behaved in the past. You must be bewitched by that mistress so much that you want to abandon me. What a tough life I have. Why did I give birth to such a son who married a mistress?“Liberty, I regret it. I’ve learned from my mistakes. You’re still better. You could cook and do household chores. You also treated me well and brought good luck to your husband. When you were around, Hank was doing well in his career. He was lucky and wealthy. Our family was living in happiness.“Once you left, Hank started to be down on his luck in his career. His income has reduced greatly. Even Chelsea and her husband have lost their jobs. As for me, I’ve been bullied every day… I regret it. I regret it so much!”While bawling, Olivia criticized her son for being unfilial. She recalled how her family was living well when Liberty was around.However, tears did not flow out of her eyes. She was merely wailing.Indeed,

    “Mom, you’d better not go to Liberty and pour out your feelings. Don’t wash our dirty linen in public. You’re already so old, yet you’re under the impression that Liberty will take pity on you if you vent to her. All she’ll do is gloat over it.”Hank expressed all his dissatisfaction in one go.His words made Olivia grimace, and she was at a loss for words.“Mom, think about it.”With that, Hank turned around and walked away.“Where are you going?”Seeing that her son was about to go out, Olivia asked him.“You stomped on the flowers that I planned to give to my wife. I’m going out to buy a new bouquet of flowers.”Olivia was speechless.Hank left without looking back. He went out to buy Jessica another bouquet of flowers.When he returned, he saw his mother weeping on the couch. Distressed, he ignored his mother. He entered his room with the new bouquet of flowers.Jessica was watching a video using her phone on the bed. She would chortle from time to time.At the sight of

    Upon hearing Jessica’s words, Hank hugged her. He lowered his head and kissed her on the face. “Darling, thank you for being considerate.”“We’re a married couple. I just want us to live much better than you and Liberty did.”At the mention of Liberty, Hank clearly stiffened. Nevertheless, he did not say anything. He soon carried Jessica to bed.Every moment of the wedding night was precious indeed.On the other hand, Serenity strolled outside the hilltop villa. Only when her legs were tired did she return to the house.Zachary silently followed behind her.Every time he wanted to speak to her, she would say, “You liar, stay away from me. I don’t want to talk to you now.”This caused Zachary to become submissive. All he could do was silently follow behind her.By the time Serenity returned to the house, her phone was already fully charged.She unplugged the charger and picked up her phone, only to see many incoming missed calls and WhatsApp messages. There were also text messa

    Serenity was not just mad at Zachary but also the Yorks. Serenity replied to her sister’s message first before calling Jasmine.“Serenity.”Jasmine answered her call shortly. “Serenity, how are you now? Your phone had been turned off during the day. I called you numerous times when your phone was off. When I could finally get through at night, you didn’t pick up my call.”Serenity pretended to be fine in front of her good friend and said, “My phone ran out of battery, so it automatically turned off. That’s why you couldn’t get through. Later, I borrowed the liar’s charger to have my phone fully charged.”Liar…Jasmine could sense the fury in her words. She knew Serenity was still mad.It was hard for Serenity to cool down, considering that she was deceived by the person whom she shared her bed with.“So it turned out that your phone ran out of battery. You gave me a fright. Are you okay?”Serenity fell quiet for some time before she forced a laugh and said, “It’d be a lie to

    Austin said, “He’s definitely here to discuss a potential partnership with your company.“He's just the acting head of the Longbottoms. He doesn’t truly control the family. If the real head returns, everything he’s worked for will go to someone else.“The downfall of Belinda Fisher probably gave him a wake-up call and he doesn’t want to end up like that.“He’s definitely seeking to cooperate with you regarding his personal business. He’s just using the Longbottoms’ name, since their influence in Windermere is enormous.”In terms of wealth, the O'Connors and the Longbottoms were on equal footing, but the O'Connors had fewer members and did not have the same level of influence in Windermere as the Longbottoms.Isabella said, “He’s very ambitious. A partnership would only just be the beginning. Once it’s established, he’ll start thinking about how to cheat us and steal our business.“Plus, he’s very lecherous.

    Tony was aware that whenever his wife had to play the villain, it was always to protect him. He said, “You're right, I misspoke. Your mother isn’t that kind of person.”“Manny, I’ll be leaving soon. You stay here, and I’ll leave half of my men with you. If anything comes up that you can't handle, contact me. I’ll be waiting to hear good news from you.” Tony decided to fly to Wiltspoon in the afternoon. He would only stay for two or three days before returning to Havenmill to handle business.However, as he thought about how he was working like a horse for Longbottom Corporation when many of the benefits did not even belong to him personally, Tony felt a bit disgruntled.“Got it.” Manny did not reject his father’s arrangement.As the Longbottom father and son were discussing how to deal with the O’Connors, Austin entered Isabella’s office.Isabella was busy, so Austin did not disturb her. He quietly sat at the tea table and made some tea.“It seems you’ve learned the art of tea-

    Manny had never been to Wiltspoon, but he knew from his father that several prominent families in Wiltspoon had close ties with the Johnsons from Annenburg. It was possible that the child adopted by the Johnsons’ young missus was Laurence. Unfortunately, he could not meet that child, so he could not be a hundred percent certain. The child was currently out of sight and well-protected, hidden so effectively that even the Longbottoms’ information network could not find anything. The other prominent families in Wiltspoon were also helping to keep the child hidden, so Manny deeply disliked the people from these families. Even though they were thousands of miles away, they were still an obstacle to him and his father in their pursuit of becoming the true head of the family.“That's right. If we can conquer the O’Connors, we’ll have a backup plan,” his father said. “You must put your all into it, son. If you need help, just let me know, though this is also an opportunity for you to ge

    Tony Longbottom was the only person who would put on such a parade. The big shots in Satbury usually had entourages of their own, but none would put on a spectacle as big as Tony would.As they departed in their car, Tony’s gracious demeanor utterly shattered.His face twisted into an ugly, cruel expression as he said, “I’ve never been treated like this before, even when the legitimate branch of the family still lived, and those two ignorant little girls actually refused to see me multiple times.”Manny was very angry too and he said, “Pops, since they refuse to go about this the easy way, we’ll have to show them the hard way. We can approach it from other angles, and once they’re completely out of business and they have nowhere else to turn to, they’ll be at our mercy.“Won’t they have to do as we please then? I want to marry them, they’ll have to marry me, and if I don’t, I’ll just make them my mistresses. Don’t the O’Connors have plenty of daughters? I’ll fuck every one of them

    “Isabella O’Connor is so outstanding, so why are you asking me to go for Tati O’Connor instead?” Manny said under his breath in puzzlement.He had seen photos of the two ladies and Isabella’s appearance was more striking. She had a cold and aloof aura that easily triggered his desire to conquer her, and after just a few glances, he was captivated.If it were up to him, Manny would choose Isabella.Tony looked at his son, smiled, and said, “You can’t control her. Of course, if you manage to make her fall for you, we can talk about switching. But for now, focus on Tati O’Connor.”Tati was also beautiful. However, she did not have Isabella’s cold demeanor. She seemed much gentler, like she smiled often.“Marrying Tati O’Connor would be a big advantage for both you and our family.”Manny thought for a moment and then nodded in understanding. “Got it, Dad.”Manny’s good looks, wealth, honeyed tongue, and generosity toward girls made him good at winning them over.

    After testing the O’Connor sisters and realizing they were not like other women, Mr. Longbottom thought of having his son marry Tati.He knew that his son would not be able to handle or control Isabella, so he set his sights on Tati. Tati probably did not realize she was considered an easy target. Most people underestimated her because she had always kept a low profile.At that moment, a young man got out from the other side of the Rolls-Royce. He resembled Mr. Longbottom. Indeed, he was Mr. Longbotton’s eldest son, Manny.“Dad.”Manny went to his father’s side and glanced at the building before him. He asked, “Aren’t we driving inside?”In Havenmill, Manny could do whatever he wished because his father was the interim head of the Longbottom family. While he had no respect for ordinary people at all, he was clever enough not to offend people he should not.He never parked his car outside the places he wanted to go and simply drove his car through the gates. However, Manny

    Meanwhile in Satbury, a few luxury cars stopped at the entrance of Costa Corporation. The door of the first car, a Rolls-Royce, opened. A bodyguard came out of the car.He waited for his boss, who was sitting in the backseat to exit.Mr. Longbottom got out of the car. Although he was over fifty years old, he looked like he was in his forties as he maintained his appearance well.He wore a white tailored suit with a tie, which made him look more youthful.The bodyguards in the other cars alighted as well.They quickly stood behind Mr. Longbottom to protect him. It was also his display of power.A few bodyguards grabbed many gift boxes from the trunks. Mr. Longbottom stood in front of the company and raised his head to look at the sixty-eight-storey office building. It was a symbol of the O’Connor family’s abilities.Costa Corporation was not the family’s only business. They were involved in many industries and were successful in all of them.The O’Connors were wealthy and powe

    Jasmine added, “In some cases, the divorced women can get married to a better man, while the divorced men can’t even find a new wife. There are many single men now.“Isn’t there a saying nowadays that men who have wives are extremely lucky?”When Jasmine was at the bookstore, she would also visit the neighboring stores to listen to juicy gossip. Many of the store owners were not locals and they had many stories to tell. Someone said there was an evil mother-in-law in a rural area who looked down on her daughter-in-law. She would egg her son on to abuse his wife and get a divorce. She would also tell her son that she could find a better and younger wife for him. However, once the divorce went through, news of the mother-in-law’s evil deeds and the son’s domestic abuse spread far and wide.

    “Sonny’s fine. He has recovered. You want to get Sonny from school?”After thinking about it, Serenity agreed and said, “Okay. I’ll message Sonny’s teacher later to tell her you’ll be taking him.”“Okay, Serenity. Thank you.”Hank was thankful that Serenity did not make things difficult for him. Serenity and Liberty had great character. Liberty had a new relationship and already let go of her resentment for Hank. She could coexist with him peacefully. On the other hand, Serenity still held grudges against Hank. However, since he and Liberty had divorced, he could no longer hurt her. He was also Sonny’s father. Serenity was willing to tolerate him for Sonny’s sake. Therefore, she always said yes whenever Hank requested to meet his son. “You’ll be taking Sonny out to eat after picking him up, right? Remember not to let him eat too much fried food, especially fried chicken and fries. He’ll get a sore throat.“He got a fever that day due to a throat inflammation.”“Got it. I’ll
