In any case, Duncan’s future wife had to be well-matched with him in terms of their families’ social status. Mrs. Lewis remarked, “Lily is still the most suitable one, but that brat isn’t giving her a chance at all. If he spends some time with her, they might end up being together. I’m going to York Corporation tomorrow.” Mr. Lewis asked her, “Why are you going there?” “Duncan, Zachary, and Josh are a trio. They’re the closest friends. Zachary and Josh are both taken and have tasted the sweetness of love. I’ll ask them to do the thinking for Duncan and get them to persuade him to give it a shot with Lily. “He might not listen to his parents, but he’ll listen to his good friends. He’s even staying at Zachary’s place now. Dear, send me Zachary’s phone number. I’ll call him later and not wait until tomorrow.” Mrs. Lewis thought about asking Zachary and Josh for help. “Zachary’s bad at talking and is worse than your son. Call Josh instead. Josh knows how to talk, so he’ll be mo

After Zachary closed the door, Serenity yawned and went back to bed. She lay down and closed her eyes to rest. She would wait for Zachary. She wanted to know how the investigation had been going with him, Clive, and Josh. There was also Duncan. Duncan must have gone to find Zachary after he left Brynfield. Zachary came out of the bathroom after some time. Serenity heard his footsteps and opened her eyes. She saw that he was half-naked and that his hair was still wet with water dripping down. She sat up abruptly and rolled off the bed to fetch a clean towel. She sat the man, who did not dry his hair, in front of the dresser. Following that, she helped dry his hair like a mother and said, “Why did you wash your hair so late at night? It’s fine if you wash it, but you didn’t even dry it with a towel. Men’s hair is only that long, so it’ll dry in no time if you use a dry towel. “Even so, you’re lazy to dry it. Look at how wet the floor is now.” Zachary enjoyed his wife’s

There were too many people in the zoo, so it was easy to create a disturbance and take the opportunity to kidnap a child. On the other hand, everywhere was being monitored in the busy downtown. It would not be easy for the other party to make a move, and they would not dare to act rashly. Zachary guessed that the other party would at least wait for a few months before acting again. Serenity said after some thought, “You have a point. In that case, I’ll treat the zoo incident as an accident and carry on with my normal life. I’ll slowly lure the snake out of its hole.” Zachary kissed her forehead appreciatively. “My wife is getting smarter.” “Was I dumb before?” “No, you’ve always been smart. I like how smart you look.” He was trying hard to survive. “I think I was too dumb to be fooled by you.” Zachary quickly stopped Serenity from talking further. After a kiss, he gently touched her lips and said in a soft voice, “Honey, go to sleep. It’s late.” “Good night.” A

“Also, Lucas was also taken away. If Serenity hadn’t asked someone to go after those people, who knows what will happen to your sister now?” Chelsea kneeled and thanked Serenity after her son was lost and recovered. Even Jessica was shocked. A mother could do anything for her child. Hank said, “Didn’t you see Zachary bringing so many people to pick them up? Besides, Mr. Stone also brought a bunch of people. Sonny is being protected by so many people. As a father, I couldn’t even reach him to care about him.” Jessica was speechless. “On the other hand, Lucas was frightened, and so was my sister. Not only my sister but all of us were terrified.” Hank did not have a good relationship with his sister lately, but Lucas was his nephew, after all. If he had not brought up the trip to the zoo, his mother would not have asked his sister to bring Lucas along, and the accident would not have happened. Fortunately, Lucas was saved. Otherwise, Hank would feel guilty about it. A fami

Jessica responded, “It wasn’t easy for your parents to raise you, but it was easy for mine to raise me? On what basis are you asking me to tolerate them? Your mom never raised me, and she always targets me. She says that I’m not as good as Liberty and keeps comparing me to her. Am I not allowed to be mad? “She always tells me how good Liberty is and how bad I am. She says that I don’t know how to live and always order takeouts instead of cooking at home. I’m usually busy too. She doesn’t cook even though she has nothing to do at home, and she expects me to cook for her when I’m home. Isn’t that bullying? “When I first went to your house, your mom treated me very well, and so did your sister. I only kept talking about Liberty to your sister and mom because I thought she was bad at handling her relationship with your mom. Now, I realize that they’re just too good at acting and managed to fool me as well.” What was more, Jessica got herself into this situation herself. “So much fo

Jessica took so much effort to snatch Hank away from Liberty and became the missus. She would go on no matter how difficult the road was. Otherwise, she would be seen as a joke by Liberty. Liberty would say that it was karma! “Go to sleep and stop turning and tossing in bed. Lucas isn’t your son. My sister might not even act like you. You’re just his aunt, and yet you’re so frightened that you can’t sleep.” Hank embraced Jessica and yawned. He closed his eyes and said, “I’m so sleepy.” Jessica cursed internally. She was not acting like this because of Lucas. Lucas was a spoiled brat. He ruined a lot of her skincare and makeup, so she hated him very much. She was flustered to see Lucas being carried away, but she was not worried at all. In fact, she was quite pleased. Serenity and her sister were just kind-hearted and generous to be willing to send people to save Lucas. Jessica thought that she would not save Lucas if it were her. It would be best if he was abducted. Che

Grandma May only muttered for a while. She did not continue the topic. “Babe, ask Mrs. Lane to drive the car you gave me during Valentine’s. It’s too inconvenient to go out without a car,” Serenity suggested. “Okay.” Zachary agreed with a smile. He finally gave his wife a Valentine’s gift. Grandma May said to Serenity, “Seren, this is how it should be. Your man earns money for you to spend, so spend as much as you want. The more you spend, the happier he’ll be, and the more motivated he’ll be to earn more money. If you don’t spend enough, the money he earns is just a string of numbers to him. He doesn’t feel anything and won’t feel accomplished by looking at them.” Serenity said with a smile, “Nana, I’m not short of money to spend.” Zachary often transferred money into the card for her daily spending. She had almost finished her savings, but she could not finish spending the money from Zachary no matter what. Besides, she was not a reckless spender. Everything she w

“Honey, you must think of a way to save Carrie. She has never been treated roughly before.” Mrs. Newman was worried about her younger daughter. She had not even been that worried about her son, who was still in high school. However, her son went to a boarding school and was in his senior year. He could only return home once a month, so she only had to transfer money to her son’s card. Her son was much more mature than her daughter, but she did not like that he was protective of his elder sister, Camryn. Whenever Mrs. Newman’s son was at home, she had to be gentler toward Camryn to prevent her son from quarreling with her. “Carrie is just in detention for fifteen days. She’ll be out when the days are up. We should be worried about Mrs. York suing her.”Mr. Newman sighed. “We have to apologize to them.”He was also anxious that his cherished daughter had caused trouble. However, unlike his wife who simply thought of getting their daughter out, he thought further ahead. “It’s
