Chapter 885

Author: Gu Lingfei
Nevertheless, Josh was a brilliant man.

Mrs. Sox would sigh to herself every time Josh invited her son out for dinner. She would leap with delight if Josh asked her daughter out instead. In fact, Mrs. Sox would be laughing in her sleep.

Josh earnestly replied, “Mrs. Sox, I’m not pretending to be Jasmine’s date. To put it accurately, I’m pursuing Jasmine. She hasn’t agreed to be my girlfriend.”

Mrs. Sox put the phone away from her ear, making sure she had called the right number. She picked her ear before placing the phone back against it. She asked, “Are you really Mr. Bucham?”

“It’s me, Mrs. Sox.”

“Did you say you’re wooing Jasmine and not Drake?”

Josh replied, “Mrs. Sox… I’m a straight guy. I only like women.”

He moaned in his mind, ‘My future mother-in-law and Jasmine are the same to suspect I have a thing for Drake.’

Amusingly, Mrs. Sox did not stop him from asking Drake out despite her suspicions.

The old lady was quite open-minded.

“But you’re so nice to Drake,

    Unfortunately, those good days were coming to an end.Josh finally ended the call with Mrs. Sox.He returned the phone to Jasmine and looked at her with a smile and said, “Let’s go to your aunt’s house for dinner tonight. What should I prepare? What’s my status now?”Jasmine glanced at him as she continued to eat, and said, “Even if you’re a scumbag, my aunt and the others will still think that you’re the best.”He was Josh Bucham, the Mr. Bucham from York Corporation, and from the mysterious Bucham family. That status and identity were what her aunt wanted her niece to have.When they discovered that Serenity’s husband was the heir of the York family, Jasmine’s mother and aunt envied Serenity’s good fortune in front of Jasmine for having taken one of the most outstanding men in Wiltspoon.They always looked at Jasmine when they praised Serenity, and Jasmine knew very well what those expressions meant.Josh said confidently, “I’m not a scumbag. Not to blow my own trumpet, but th

    Jasmine could not help but laugh. “You can be a landlord whenever you want.”“My family’s houses and stores belong to my parents, not me. My mom only told me to collect the rent because she’s too lazy to do it herself, and she gives me a few thousand as remuneration.”Her parents’ money belonged to themselves.Her capabilities could only be measured by the money she earned by herself.“Aunt Rachel said that Shawn came back and asked us to go over for dinner for a get-together.“He just came back for the weekend to see my aunt. He won’t try to bug Seren, so you and Mr. York should stop attacking him and Lowe Enterprise.”Jasmine was not dumb. She figured everything out after learning that Zachary was from the York family.Jasmine would not believe that Josh did not have a hand in Lowe Enterprise being attacked.Josh did not have a guilty conscience, so he said, “Zachary only told Mr. Lowe the reason he terminated their cooperation out of consideration for you and I. Otherwise, L

    At those words, Shawn was shell-shocked. He was in utter disbelief.“You’re lying, right? You’re lying to me because you want me to give up. How can Serenity’s husband be Mr. York? I...” Shawn suddenly remembered that he had not seen Serenity’s husband since she got married.“I have no reason to lie to you. I also found out about this not long ago. It was Mr. York who told us himself. He said that he was attacking Lowe Enterprise because you’re pining for his wife. Shawn, the entire Lowe family will be buried with you if you continue to pester Serenity.”Solemnly his mother added, “You don’t have to bring benefits to the Lowe family, but don’t drag Lowe Enterprise through the mud.”“Zachary... Mr. York’s name is Zachary?”Shawn was in incredulity.Mr. York was Serenity’s husband!“It’s not surprising that you don’t know Mr. York’s name. Many people don’t either. Shawn, it doesn’t matter what his name is. What matters is that he’s Serenity’s husband! Putting aside his status, pos

    The phone in Zachary’s hand almost slipped to the ground. He anxiously called Josh.“Josh, which hospital is Seren in?”His words affected her so much that they caused her to hurt herself.Zachary regretted and blamed himself.Why could he not control his foul temper?“I don’t know which hospital she’s at either. I saw Jasmine alone when I came to the store. I only learned that your wife was injured and sent to a hospital by Elisa when I asked. If you want to know what happened, then call and ask.”Zachary immediately hung up the call with Josh.He called Serenity.The line rang for a long time before she picked up.“Which hospital are you at, Seren? Are you badly hurt? I’ll be right there.”The person who answered the phone was Elisa.Serenity was getting an IV infusion.It was only after arriving at the hospital did Elisa see how deep Serenity’s wound was. It continued to bleed even as the doctor cleaned the wound again. Elisa was a little afraid of blood, so her legs wen

    Zachary was speechless.There was no doubt Elisa was Clive’s sister—the siblings were the same. When they found out that he was Serenity’s husband, they both acted like they had seniority over him as Serenity’s older cousins.He hung up the phone.The nearest hospital to Wiltspoon School was Wiltspoon Community Hospital. Even without checking, he could guess that Elisa sent Serenity to Wiltspoon Community Hospital.Elisa was not angry at being hung up on by Zachary. She helped put Serenity’s phone back into her purse and said, “Seren, your mom is my aunt, which means we’re cousins. The DNA test confirmed it, so it’s an indisputable fact.“I’m a year older than you, so I have seniority over you, right? Zachary is your husband. It stands to reason that I also have seniority over him. You need to make him address me more politely, or my anger won’t be relieved.”Serenity wanted to laugh and said, “It’s his mouth. I can’t control him if he doesn’t want to do it.”“You have to contro

    Serenity looked at Elisa quietly.Elisa said, “I’m a little tired from talking so much. I’ll go get a glass of water. Do you want one?”“Yes, please, and thank you.”Elisa reached out and lightly pinched Serenity’s face, laughing. “We’re sisters. There’s no need to be so polite. You take quite good care of your face. It’s really nice to touch. Does Zachary like to touch your face?”Serenity was speechless.Before she could answer, Elisa smiled and walked away.She poured Serenity and herself a cup of warm water.Serenity stretched out her injured hand, but instead of handing her the cup, Elisa brought it straight to Serenity’s lips and said thoughtfully, “I’ll feed you.”“I can do it myself. I can’t do anything else with my fingers wrapped like this, but I can still hold a glass of water.”Although that was what Serenity said, she still accepted Elisa’s thoughtfulness.After they both finished their water, Elisa sat down again and said, “That’s all I have to say to you for no

    Never in her wildest dreams would she guess that she was lied to by Grandma May and Zachary. The man whom she thought was an ordinary salaryman turned out to be the eldest young master of the York family.A plot that only appeared in novels actually happened in real life. Serenity was truly dumbfounded.She was caught off guard and did not know what to do.She could not leave, but she could not continue on either. She was extremely conflicted.It was hard for her to replicate the path taken by her aunt.Times were better back when her aunt was young. She could climb up as long as she seized the opportunity.However, it was completely different now.Of course, Serenity knew that women should strive for self-improvement. She never thought of relying on a man for the rest of her life. From her sister’s marriage, she witnessed that she could not believe men when they said nonsense like “I’ll support you”. Their mentality would change at any time.Several men in suits nervously gath

    “Right, the head of their family is the same as you. He also got married out of nowhere. His wife grew up in the countryside too, but she was much luckier than you. Although she was adopted, her adoptive parents treated her as if she was their own and raised her well.“She has adoptive parents who genuinely love her, and she has an older brother who spoils her like crazy too. Later, she found her biological parents who turned out to be from the richest family in Meadspring. Her identity changed from a country bumpkin to the missy of the Meadspring’s Lafayette family overnight. She’s a match for the Johnson family head whether it’s her status or identity.”Elisa was from the Stone family, so she knew all about the gentry’s affairs.Her cousin was not as lucky as Mrs. Johnson.“Seren, do you think I should go over and greet him? I’ve met Remy several times before.”Serenity laughed. “Since you know each other, go over and say hello.”“I think so too. Sit here while I go and say hel

    “I packed and checked everything, Dad. Nothing is missing,” said Sonny. He did not know that Hank was stalling. Hank did not want to take Sonny downstairs that quickly. “It’s okay even if I leave something behind. I’ll still come over to visit in the future, Dad. Didn’t you say this will always be my home?”Sonny thought he could simply take anything he left behind the next time he came. There was no need to ensure everything was packed.Wherever his mom and dad were would always be his home. Hank replied softly, “Yes. This is always your home. The doors will be open for you for as long as I’m here.“Go watch the TV with your grandparents first, Sonny. I’ll finish packing up soon. Your grandparents bought snacks for you. Remember to bring them with you.”Sonny did not lack anything when he lived with Duncan and Liberty. However, the things his grandparents bought for him held their sincerity. Hank hoped his son could get along with his parents and forget the fact that the

    Dylan took a flight back to Wiltspoon on that day. It was the day when Liberty and Duncan went to pick Sonny up from the Brown family’s place. Sonny was only visiting for two days, yet Duncan had mentioned him almost every moment. He even had to be on a video call with Sonny every few hours. For the video calls to happen, Duncan even became shameless and connected with Hank on social media. It was so that he could call Sonny conveniently. Not only that, he even uploaded many lovey-dovey pictures of him and Liberty to make Hank see them and get jealous. Meanwhile, in the Brown family’s house, Hank was packing Sonny’s clothes. He slowly folded his son's clothes to stall for time. Duncan could wait downstairs, who had insisted on coming along with Liberty to pick Sonny up but did not want to head upstairs. Therefore, he had been waiting downstairs. Liberty did not want to enter the Browns’ house either. She waited downstairs and chatted with her old neighbors. Through them

    After a moment of silence, Imogen said, “I didn’t know either. If Dylan didn’t mention anything, I wouldn’t have known about this.“I met and talked to Old Mrs. York when I visited the Yorks with my teacher. She’s a nice old lady. It was a pleasure talking to her and not stressful at all. I wouldn’t have guessed that she was that formidable just by looking at her.“As expected of someone whom the Buchams respect. Even my teacher was humble before her and dared not be arrogant. He said Old Mrs. York used to be a badass when she was young. She has contributed greatly to the York family’s achievements.“Her capability is also evident through the eight grandsons she had raised with her deceased husband.”Leticia said, “Doesn’t the York family have nine young masters?”“Rowan York is the youngest. He was mainly educated by his parents as well as his elder brothers and cousins. Although Old Mrs. York did give him some guidance, we can’t say that he was raised by Old Mr. and Mrs. York.”

    Dylan suspected that Imogen was Fox. If they were indeed the same person, then it was true that he had only ever pursued Imogen.“Was he okay after standing outside for more than half an hour?” Winston asked.Leticia chimed in, “Jen had Wendy make him a bowl of hot soup. Knowing that the boy doesn’t like spicy food, I made sure she added plenty of spice. It was definitely spicy. Wendy said Jen made sure he finished it before leaving.”Imogen had made Dylan drink such spicy soup, but he was still willing to drink it for her. He was clearly doing this out of consideration for Imogen, not wanting to make things too awkward between their families.“Lucky for him,” Winston muttered.Imogen was speechless.“Why did he come looking for you, Jen?” Winston asked in concern. “Was he here to ask to reconcile? If that’s the case, you mustn’t agree too easily. He has to pursue you again, and for at least two years, before you even think about agreeing to be with him. He needs to know how to

    After deciding to go home and plead with his grandmother, Dylan did not stay much longer at the Doyle household. However, he still pinched his nose and finished the bowl of soup after Imogen persuaded him to.She personally saw him off at the gate.“Mr. York, remember to see a doctor when you get back. Take some medicine for a few days, don’t be careless,” Imogen said, following him out mainly to remind him to get treated once he got home, so he would not end up with a serious illness.People who were usually very healthy tended to get very sick when they did fall ill.“My health is my responsibility. If I don’t feel well, I’ll definitely go see a doctor. Don’t worry about me, Ms. Doyle. Even if I fall sick because of what happened today, it’s my fault. I won’t blame you or your family,” Dylan said, thinking Imogen was concerned he might blame her father.He could not bring himself to hope for anything beyond that.Imogen smiled. “Please send my regards to Grandma May and Serenit

    “Mr. York, are you really not going to give up? Are you going to keep chasing after her? What is it about her that I lack?”Imogen really wanted to know why Dylan could not fall for her when she interacted with him as her true self but instead, he fell head over heels in love with her when she wore a different identity.“Ms. Doyle, you’re a great person, really—you’re wonderful. It’s just that I’m not worthy of you,” Dylan replied sincerely. “There’s nothing about you that’s inferior to Fox. I don’t even know why I fell for her. Maybe it’s because I kept having the same dream of her over and over.“Before I approached you, I had already dreamt of Fox many times, and then I actually met her in real life. I guess, if you had to ask why I fell for Fox and not for you, I can only say it was because I had already fallen for her in my dream. When the dream became a reality, it felt natural.”Imogen was silent.“Actually, I only met the real Fox after I started getting closer to you. I k

    Dylan said, “Go ahead.”He was a bit hungry too and wanted to eat.Imogen called for Wendy and instructed her to make a fresh pot of tea and serve some of the snacks she usually ate.Once Wendy finished preparing the tea, Imogen poured a cup for Dylan and said, “You can start your story now.”“Ms. Doyle, I’m not making up a story, I’m—Ms. Doyle, you are Fox, aren’t you?” Dylan asked again.“Mr. York, I’ve told you, I don’t know who Fox is. I only know a fox is an animal, like in the zoo. If you ask me again if I’m Fox, I’ll think you’re calling me a vixen.”“‘Fox’ is just a nickname, meaning she’s very cunning and deceptive. I call her Chameleon Fox for her ability to shape-shift into many different identities. She changes so much that people mistake her for many different people, but in reality, she’s only one person.”Imogen looked quite interested and said, “Oh, so you think I’m Chameleon Fox, who likes to deceive people? Do you have any evidence for this?”“No, I don’t.”“

    Couples always talked about eternal love, but how many could truly last forever?Dylan stammered, unable to say anything. Could he say that he suspected she was Fox? It was just a guess, with no evidence.Under Imogen’s gaze, Dylan steeled himself and spoke honestly, “I came to apologize to you.”Imogen raised an eyebrow. “Apologize? You already apologized to me the last time we spoke. There’s no need to apologize again. I’m not angry at you. When it comes to matters of the heart, it’s all about reciprocation. You can’t force it.“Feelings can’t be pressured into existence, so I won’t pressure you to accept me.“Plus, it’s been so long, and I have no feelings for you anymore. For that, I should thank you for clearing things up for me early on. At that time, I had just started to like you and could give up so quickly because of that.”Dylan, embarrassed, said, “Ms. Doyle, it’s not about that. Recently, I… secretly followed you.”“You followed me? Why?” Imogen pretended to be clue

    “Drink it while it’s hot. Only when it’s steaming will it have the best effect to ward off the cold.”Dylan nodded, wiping his nose with a tissue. He threw the tissue into the trash bin, but when he saw that the bin was full of tissues, he felt even more embarrassed.He picked the steaming hot soup up carefully and took a big sip.It was so spicy!The spice almost made him spit it out. Remembering that Imogen was right next to him, he forced himself to swallow it. After just one sip, Dylan put the bowl down.“Ms. Doyle, the soup is too hot. I’ll drink it later,” he said.It was too spicy. He did not want to take a second sip.“I’ll take the medicine first,” he added.Compared to drinking the soup, Dylan would rather take the medicine. The medicine might be bitter, but he could handle it.Imogen immediately called him out. “You’re afraid of the spice and you don’t want to drink the soup, do you?”Dylan sneezed again and then poured himself some water to take the medicine.Hav
