After exiting the room, Callum took Camryn to another room, ordered food again, and told her to continue to treat him to lunch.He said righteously, “Your uncle tried to force me to marry you. I suffered grievances, so you should buy me lunch.”Camryn felt amused and exasperated. “I didn’t say I wouldn’t. You don’t have to make excuses.”“I’ll send you home after lunch. Pack up and move out of that house. I’m worried your uncle will do something to you.”“Where am I supposed to move to?”“My place, of course. I have a house near your place. Move into my house and I’ll ask someone to take care of you. Don’t worry, I won’t live in the same house, lest others say that we’re cohabiting before getting married.”Camryn paused. “Mr. Callum, stop talking about marriage. I won’t follow my uncle’s arrangement. I’ll ask my assistant to help me tidy up the small room inside my store later. I can stay there for now. It’s much more convenient that way too.”She would move back home when her u
“Bye-bye.”Sonny waved to Elisa and blew her a kiss, making everyone laugh.Zachary personally escorted Audrey and Elisa out of the inpatient building.“You’ve worked hard these days, Zachary.”Audrey said gratefully, “It’s thanks to you that Seren and her sister could turn their fortunes around. You helped them a lot. Thank you.”Zachary said warmly, “Seren is my wife, and her sister is my sister. They’re my family. It’s only natural that I help them.”He helped Serenity and Liberty tremendously, but it was also because they got acquainted with him that they ended up being involved in trouble.“You’re a responsible man. I feel relieved leaving Serenity in your hands.”Audrey had always known that Zachary was one of the most outstanding young men in Wiltspoon. Her daughter had a good eye.However, they were not destined to be together.Instead, Zachary became her nephew-in-law. At least he did not fall into the hands of someone else.Audrey and Elisa left.Zachary walked th
“I won’t help you. You can go after Liberty by yourself. If you manage to pursue her, Seren and I will support the two of you together. If you don’t, then stop pestering her. After all, your mother doesn’t approve of her.”Zachary did not stop Duncan, but he would not help him either.“We’re good friends, Duncan. I know you’re a man worthy of lifelong commitment, but your mom looks down on Liberty and doesn’t approve of you two together. Liberty already experienced one failed marriage. I don’t want her to be bullied by her in-laws again after remarrying.”Duncan hurriedly said, “Zachary, don’t you understand my temperament by now? When has my mom ever made my decisions for me? I’m in charge of my own life. I know my mom is biased against Liberty, but that’s because she doesn’t know Liberty well. She’ll accept Liberty after she gets to know her.“Even if she doesn’t accept Liberty, it won’t affect us. I don’t live with my parents. I won’t let her suffer from my parents’ anger.”Zac
Liberty was still weak and soon fell asleep again.Even Sonny fell asleep in Serenity’s arms.Serenity placed her nephew on the sofa bed and covered him with a thin blanket. When she saw that her sister’s IV fluid was almost finished, she rang the bell to notify the nurse to come and change the IV.After changing the IV drip, Serenity watched for a few more minutes before turning around and quietly walked outside.Zachary pushed the door and entered.He saw Serenity sitting on the sofa in the small lounge, looking dazed.He walked over, sat next to her, and touched her shoulder, asking softly, “What’s wrong? Is Liberty asleep?”“Liberty and Sonny are both asleep.”Serenity leaned on her husband’s shoulder. “Babe.”“Hm?”Serenity just called out to him and did not say anything else.“Did you want to say something to me?” Zachary asked warmly.Serenity wrapped her arms around him and said, “It’s nothing. I just wanted to call you.”Zachary said indulgently, “If you wanted to
Zachary deliberately pulled a long face. “It’s karma. I got so many calls that my phone ran out of battery. Even Remy said that he would introduce me to a miracle doctor to cure me.”Serenity could not help but laugh when she imagined the scene of Zachary being cared for by everyone.After laughing, she said to him, “Why didn’t you accept when Remy wanted to introduce a miracle healer to you? Ask that genius doctor if it’s possible for him to cure Camryn’s eyes.”“I forgot about that.”Zachary smiled. “At that time, I was so angry by their concern that I was going crazy. I completely forgot about Callum. However, I did talk to Callum about this before. Ms. Newman’s aunt went to Annenburg to find the doctor, but she could not find him.“Remy’s fourth brother is the one and only disciple of the genius doctor. There’s a 99% chance of him getting married. Once Dr. Carden becomes the fourth missus of the Johnson family, it’ll be much easier for Callum to ask the doctor for help.”“99%
Zachary was worried about Serenity after seeing how hard Alice had it during her pregnancy.“I already decided not to pressure myself. I want to go back to being the old Serenity Hunt. I’ll live my own life without caring about what others say.”In the end, she still felt that Zachary’s status put a lot of pressure on her.The gap between them was too large.She hoped that her investment project could make her money.Even if she could not match Zachary, at least there was an advancement on her part.“I’ll go rest for a while.”“Okay.”Zachary accompanied her into the ward and watched her lie down beside Sonny. He looked at Liberty’s IV drip and estimated that it would last another half an hour before the next one. Then, he returned to the small lounge, sat down on the sofa again, and organized his work affairs while it was still early.As Liberty healed in the hospital, Serenity remained by her side almost every day.Zachary went back to the office during the day and would co
Liberty sat on the bed. She no longer needed to be hooked on IV drips all day, with only two bags every morning. When the IV therapy finished around noon, she was free to walk around.However, her injured hand had not regained her usual strength. She could not even hold her son.She was a little worried that it would affect her business in the future.The doctor said that she would recover fully as long as she recuperated well, so she was relieved.“Jasmine and I have been friends for many years. Of course, I’ll attend her engagement party.”Serenity peeled the apple and sliced it into four. She handed one to her sister, one to Sonny, and the remaining two to Mrs. Lane and the other maid.“You go ahead, Missus.”Mrs. Lane declined the apple.Serenity smiled and said, “Take it, Mrs. Lane. I don’t really like apples.”Liberty chimed in, “It’s true, Mrs. Lane. Seren doesn’t like to eat apples. If you don’t eat them, they’ll just end up getting tossed out.”At the sisters’ words,
After Zachary talked to Duncan, Duncan did not dare visit Liberty on a daily basis. He only visited her twice that week. The first time was the night he had a heart-to-heart talk with Zachary. The second time was that day itself. “Mr. Lewis, Ms. Harmon.”Liberty got up in a hurry when she saw them enter. Duncan put the fruit basket down and handed the bouquet to Liberty. He gazed at her gently and said, “These flowers are for you, Liberty.”“Thank you, Mr. Lewis. You’re too kind.”Liberty accepted the flowers and thanked Duncan. She had been receiving many fruit baskets and bouquets every day. She was a person of minor importance, but she was still the biological sister of Mrs. York and Mrs. Stone’s niece. Therefore, she received many visitors every day. Duncan smiled. His gaze lingered on Liberty for a long time before saying worriedly, “Did the doctor say when you can be discharged?”“I can only leave the hospital after another week.”Duncan nodded. Lily also asked
