Chapter 930

Author: Chweety
Tania froze for a moment. "Peter, you're a jerk!"

Peter smirked. "If I'm a jerk, what does that make you?"

Grinding her teeth, Tania shot him a fierce glare. "I've seen shameless people before, but never anyone this shameless!"

Peter just kept smiling. "When we get back, feel free to ignore everyone. If they throw you any attitude, throw it right back. Whatever they do, do the opposite. If someone insults you, insult them back; if they try to start a fight, make sure you strike first!"

As Peter drove, he gave these instructions to Tania with an air of seriousness. Initially, she had no intention of listening. However, with Peter's non-stop talking, she finally gave in. She felt exasperated.

"Fine, I get it. Basically, you want me to oppose the Lennons and, if possible, annoy a few of them to death, right?"

Peter narrowed his long eyes, and the corner of his mouth lifted. "Exactly. I have faith in your abilities."

Tania scoffed. "Let me tell you, Peter. If your old man keels ove

    Peter glanced at Tania's expression but did not say anything further.Half an hour later, Peter's car pulled up to the Lennon residence. The old butler, Lance Wagner, had stationed helpers outside to wait. When they saw Peter's car, one of them hurried back to announce, "Mr. Peter has returned!"Peter drove directly into the courtyard and was the first to step out. Lance approached him with a polite smile, "Mr. Peter, welcome back. It's quite the timing. Mr. Jack only returned a short while ago as well!"Peter smirked. "Is that so?" He walked to the back seat and opened the door. "Get out."The butler blinked in surprise, not expecting to see the woman stepping out next to Peter. His eyes widened as he called out, "M-Ms. Tania!"Tania stepped out, holding Brandon in her arms. She shifted uncomfortably, her arms tingling from holding him the entire drive.Noticing this, Peter took Brandon from her arms. Tania opened her mouth to protest, "Give him back to me."Peter glanced brief

    Improper?Tania laughed. "Sir Lennon, after all these years, it's surprising that your insults are still so outdated. You're completely out of touch!""You—" Xylos, who was flustered and red-faced, pointed a trembling finger at Tania. "Y-You ill-mannered woman, you're unfit to even step through the Lennon residence's door!"Then, turning to Peter, he added, "Didn't you hear me? I told you to sever ties with this woman. You've been doing well for three years, but now that she's back, you've lost your mind! Pete, you've truly disappointed me."He cast a reproachful glare at Caleb and his wife. "Look at the son you raised!"The couple, bound by respect due to Xylos' age, said nothing, though they cast warning looks at Peter. However, Peter, who was ignoring them, simply smiled. "Tania is my wife, not some improper woman. Honestly, if it were up to me, I wouldn't have brought her here at all. But since you insisted, here we are.""You… Are you trying to kill me? Didn't you hear me

    Xylos finally fainted for real. "Call a car, quickly! Lance!"Caleb and Ari rushed over, and the Lennons descended into chaos.As Ari passed by Tania, she cast a look of utter hatred. She was practically seething with the desire to tear her apart. She even raised her hand, attempting to slap Tania. "You wretched woman, you jinx!"However, Tania's gaze turned icy as she caught Ari's wrist in an iron grip, squeezing it firmly. "Wretched? Are you insulting yourself, Ari? Wait. Actually, I outrank you now. Aren't I basically your aunt now?""You… You…" Ari trembled with rage. She then cast a pleading look at Jack. "Uncle Jack, she…""Enough!"Peter grabbed Tania's hand and shoved Ari back, his intense gaze drilling into her. "Have you forgotten what I said? If anyone in the Lennons ever dared to touch Tania, I'd make you regret it.""Are you out of your mind?" Ari screamed. "Pete, I'm your sister! This wretched woman…""Tania is my wife, and I only have two family members—Tania a

    "Love? Mr. Lennon, please don't joke with me. The only reason I got together with you was because Brandon needed a father, a complete family. There was never any real possibility for us!" Tania stated coldly."You saw it just now. Your father can't stand the sight of me. I practically send him into a fit every time he sees me. For his health, it's best if we end this relationship."With that, Tania shook off Peter's hand and strode out of the Lennon residence.Peter cast a cool glance at Jack and smirked. "Welcome back, Uncle Jack. Lennon Group is yours, and no one will take it from you."After delivering his message, Peter followed Tania out. Jack clenched his fists, his gaze dark and intense, brimming with fury as he stood away from the other Lennon family members. "Uncle Jack, Peter and Tania must be lying, right? You never married Tania, did you?" Ari asked, clinging to Jack's arm. Jack, however, shook her off in disgust. "You don't believe them, but do you doubt my words t

    Peter glanced at Tania. "You probably didn't hear me clearly before. I said I only have two people I consider family now—you and our son, Brandon."As he spoke, he looked at Tania with intensity, and her heart began to pound rapidly. That feeling had actually been lingering ever since he made that statement.At that moment, she was taken aback, but given the circumstances, she tried her best to ignore Peter. Now, however, it was just the three of them in the car. There was only Brandon, who did not fully understand the situation, leaving no room for her to pretend.Peter continued watching her closely. When he noticed her obvious discomfort, he gave a slight smile. "Tania, give me another chance. You know it's true. There's never been anyone else but you."Tania turned her head toward the window. "But my relationship with Jack…""He could never really marry you," Peter said firmly. "A person like him would never make that commitment.""Even if that's the case, do you honestly thi

    When Tania was with Peter before, Zara had treated her as though she were her own daughter. Tania had grown up without a mother's love. Even after returning to the Hoffmans, her relationship with Nancy never truly felt like that of a mother and daughter.By then, she was already an adult and married to Peter, which made it even harder for her to feel close to Nancy.However, it had been different with Zara. Zara had stayed at Five Elements Residence to care for Peter through all the years he was cast out by the Lennons. She gave up everything to be by his side, treating him as her own son.As Peter's wife, Tania received the same warmth from Zara, who spared no effort in fulfilling any request Tania made."Oh, Ms. Tania, I've missed you too!" Zara said, her voice thick with emotion. Tania had been gone for three years, and in that time, Peter had been noticeably dispirited.Most people could not see it, assuming Peter was strong and unbreakable. However, as the person who had been

    Zara was thrilled when she learned Tania was coming back and rushed to the kitchen to start preparing a meal, eagerly awaiting her arrival. Peter wore a smile the entire time, making Tania almost wonder if he was under a spell.She knew Peter might be overthinking things. Sometimes, she genuinely wished he would not overanalyze everything. However, perhaps it was better to let things go as they would. If he misunderstood, then so be it.Soon, the car pulled up to Five Elements Residence. Tania got out with Brandon, and after parking the car, Peter joined them. "Let me carry Brandon," he offered."No need. Brandon can walk on his own," Tania declined and set Brandon down. "Brandon has grown up now. He's a little man and doesn't need to be carried all the time. Isn't that right, Bran?"Brandon nodded earnestly. "I know that Mommy is tired!"Tania felt a touch of pride and smiled warmly, but her expression shifted when Brandon added, "But Daddy isn't tired. Daddy says he likes me. Da

    As soon as Brandon heard Tania's words, his big, bright eyes sparkled like stars. "Hello, Grandma! I'm Brandon, Daddy and Mommy's son!"His soft, sweet voice was absolutely adorable, melting Zara's heart completely. "Ah, what a good child. Brandon, was it? I love you very much!" Zara gently squeezed Brandon's tiny hand, her eyes filling with tears."This is wonderful. Truly wonderful." She felt that even if she passed away right then, she would be utterly content."Grandma, why are you crying? Don't cry!" Brandon stretched out his little hand to wipe Zara's tears. "Mommy says when you're happy, you should smile. Grandma, don't cry. Is Daddy bullying you?"I'll stand up for you, Grandma. Daddy says you're his mom, so it wouldn't be right for Daddy to bully you. Look, I don't bully my mommy!"Both Tania and Zara burst into laughter at Brandon's innocent words. Zara wiped away her tears, smiling. "No, your daddy treats me very well—very well, indeed. I'm crying because I'm too happy.

    Liliana got ready. She was excited as she headed out. She had not seen Tania, who looked tanned from the sun and was full of energy, in a month.Tania waved to Liliana from far away. "Liliana, over here!"I'm going to take you to a cool place today!""Where?"Tania pulled Liliana close and whispered, "We're going to a bar!""A bar?" Liliana was curious. "What for?"Tania giggled. "A friend gave me this.” She showed off a shiny gold card. "He said it's time for me to see more of the world!"Liliana grabbed the shiny gold card, and her eyes widened in shock. "The Majestic Lounge?" She stared at Tania, puzzled. "How did you get this?"Not just anyone could get their hands on a gold card from The Majestic Lounge. Most people would not know anything about the place, but as Charles's sister, Liliana was in the know. The Majestic Lounge was one of Charles's private businesses and a secret to most outside the family. Layla had a gold card and often hung out there with her friends.Lil

    Charles was unusually quiet for a moment, his finger pressed to his lips as if deep in thought. "Are you really ready to walk away from the Smith family's huge estate? You know your dad is the only one holding it up right now, and no one even knows where your fourth uncle is!""Why are you so worried about me? Don't forget I have a brother. If the Jones family won't make room for him, he can just join the Smith family!"While everyone else was trying to claim their piece of the pie, Sean was looking for a way out.Charles knew that once Sean made up his mind, he would not budge. "Alright, I'll look into it for you. Once you're sure, I'll help you seal the deal!""You take care of it," Sean said after a pause. "Aren't you going to check out the commotion downstairs?"Charles glanced down, pulling back his gaze. "Her feelings for you...""Let's not go there. I can't handle that," Sean interrupted, thinking about Layla's haughty behavior earlier and her rudeness toward Liliana. His

    Liliana's brow creased slightly. She could not figure out why Layla always seemed to pick fights with her, even though she tried to stay out of Layla's way.Layla stared at Liliana with a sharp gaze. Noticing Liliana's hands were empty, she knew there was no gift for her. That was why Layla was giving Liliana a hard time.Everyone was watching Liliana, and Layla was eager to see how she would handle the situation."Is today your birthday?"Liliana felt awkward with all eyes on her. She glanced at Sean and saw he was not going to step in. She took a deep breath and said, "I'm sorry, I didn't know. You never told me, so I thought your birthday was a few days away!""You..." Layla was taken aback by Liliana's response. She scowled. "Didn't you come back just today before leaving again? I thought you were getting me a birthday present!" Layla bit her lip, looking sad. "You and Sean...""It was just a coincidence. Sean said he needed to talk to Charles, and I didn't realize it was for

The crowd was huge despite many people being turned away at the door.The party had started, and the old mansion was buzzing with excitement. However, Maxwell was not too fond of noise, so the celebration was in the garden outside, keeping the inside of the house quiet.The weather was nice, and everyone seemed to be having a good time outside, chatting, drinking, and grilling.

    Liliana tensed up immediately. "Sean... I can walk on my own!" She pulled her hand away from Sean's grasp.Sean paused, a thought seeming to cross his mind, and a slight smile tugged at the corner of his mouth. "Let's go!" Once they were in the car, Liliana tried to make herself as small as possible. Sean was driving, and she kept her head down, either fiddling with her phone or twiddling her fingers, avoiding conversation.Sean noticed Liliana's preoccupation with her phone and teased, "What's up? Is your phone more interesting than me?"Liliana looked up instinctively and met Sean's gaze. She froze, her eyes locked on his. At that moment, her heart felt like it was about to burst. The sensation was completely overwhelming.She just stared at Sean, unable to move.Sean caught her gaze and felt an odd sensation in his chest. He raised an eyebrow. "What's the matter? Are you amazed? Have you finally figured out I'm more handsome than your phone?""Uh…" Liliana stuttered with a n

    Sean nodded, his gaze falling on Liliana.He had not gotten a good look at her clothes from afar. Seeing her now in blue jeans and a white shirt, he realized how simple yet stunning she looked.He could not believe how tall and pretty she had gotten at such a young age.Sean looked away. "Time to get up?""Oh!" Liliana nodded. However, maybe because she had been squatting too long, her legs were all tingly and she lost her balance when she tried to stand, falling backward.Quick as a flash, Sean caught her hand and yanked her toward him, and she ended up crashing right into his arms.The sudden jolt left Liliana dazed. Her head was against Sean's chest, and she could hear his heartbeat while her own heart started to beat wildly.Her face was pressed against him, so Sean could not see how red her cheeks had become.She was frozen, too scared to move. At that moment, she understood something very clearly... She probably liked the guy in front of her. The boy who had saved her the

    "Alright. Have fun with your friends, and don't come home too late," Sean said before hanging up. Liliana's heart started to beat faster for some reason, and she could still hear Sean's voice in her ears, as if he were right there with her.She kept staring at Sean, who was still standing there. It looked like a girl had walked up to him.Liliana could not see very clearly, but she could see a girl in a pink dress with long hair standing next to Sean. She did not catch what they were saying, but Sean looked really happy.Suddenly, Liliana felt a soft pain, a sharp twinge in her heart.It was so quick and elusive that she could not figure out what she was feeling."What's wrong?" Tania asked, noticing Liliana seemed upset after her phone call. She kept staring into space. Tania looked around but saw nothing. She waved her hand in front of Liliana's face. "Liliana?"Liliana came back to the present with a forced smile. "Tania, didn't you say you'd take me out for a big birthday din

    Tania's face went pale when she heard that. "No way!"Tania was still young and did not really get all that lovey-dovey stuff. She just thought Brian was nicer to her than her other friends. With a puzzled look, Tania scratched her head. "Maybe he just thinks I'm... cute?"Liliana shook her head. "Don’t you know? Him giving you a watch means he likes you.""Really?" Tania jumped. "Liliana, you're not joking, right? I'm just a kid, and I've always seen him as a big brother." Suddenly, the watch felt like a hot potato in Tania's hands, and she quickly snapped it shut. "What should I do now?"Liliana threw up her hands. "I have no idea!"She had never been in this kind of situation before and did not know what to do."So..."Tania did not get to finish because Liliana's phone started ringing. She stopped, pulled out her phone, and looked at the caller ID with a surprised face. With Tania watching, she answered, "Hello?"Sean was on the line, frowning. He asked, "Are you at the Wor

    "Brian? You're back?" Tania paused, smiling at Brian. "What brings you home today?"If Tania was not mistaken, was Brian not supposed to be at college in another town?Brian's heart raced as Tania spoke, and his cheeks flushed a light pink. He looked at her and said, "Um... I actually got back a few days ago.""Oh, was it something urgent?" Tania asked, nodding without suspicion.Brian felt his pulse quicken. "Um... I heard today's your birthday?"Tania paused, then cocked her head and smiled at Brian. "Yes. I'm surprised you remembered my birthday!""Happy Birthday!" Brian blurted out. He pulled out a box from behind and handed it to her. "For you."Tania took the box, a little unsure at first, but quickly smiled. "Thanks so much, Brian!"Seeing Tania's sweet smile, Brian's heart skipped a beat, his rhythm all over the place. "No problem!""I've got to go now, Brian." Tania waved, tucked Brian's gift into her bag, and hopped away with a spring in her step.Liliana had arrang
