Sonny hummed in acknowledgment.Serenity placed him down and held him as they went downstairs.Just as Zachary was descending, he saw Serenity and Sonny. He said with a grin, “This kid is such a fast runner. I just only helped him put on his clothes, and he ran even more quickly than a rabbit. Has Liberty left?”“Yes.”Soon, Serenity and Zachary sat on the couch.Sonny was playing in front of the couple.“Babe, Liberty said if you can help Sonny get into WLC, please do help. Just let her know how much it costs and she’ll bear the fees.”“If I weren’t able to help, I wouldn’t have mentioned it to you. I’ll handle it. I’ll make sure my nephew gets into WLC for free. Even if fees are involved, I’ll pay for Liberty.“Regarding the fees—”Before Zachary could finish his sentence, Serenity interjected, “Liberty said Sonny is her son, so she should pay the fees. This is her duty as a mother. It’s only because Liberty can afford to pay the fees that she wants to enroll Sonny in the be
After leaving the hospital, Hank even accompanied Jessica to another mall to get what she wanted.When they got home, he could not stop thinking about the scene of Duncan and Sonny’s close interaction, which exasperated him. His concern was that his son would be snatched away by Duncan and end up calling Duncan “Dad”.As soon as Jessica went to bed, he secretly left the house to buy some snacks and toys. Then, he rushed to his ex-wife’s place.He never thought of saving his relationship with Liberty.There was no turning back. He could not get together with Liberty anymore.However, Sonny was his son. How could his son behave intimately with the man who was pursuing his ex-wife? Duncan had seriously challenged Hank’s identity as Sonny’s father.“Is your wife’s baby fine?” Liberty asked indifferently.Slightly ashamed, Hank answered, “The baby is fine.” “Sonny has been eating and playing a lot. You don’t have to buy him so many things.”“I know he doesn’t need these, but I wan
Jessica did not like how worried her husband’s family was about Sonny before she became pregnant. She hated it even more now that she was pregnant.At the mention of Jessica, Hank could not sit for long.He got up and left shortly.After walking her ex-husband out, Liberty closed the door and locked it. She felt a rush of thrill in her.It was because she was seeing her ex-husband living a pathetic life after he remarried. On the other hand, Liberty and her son were leading a better life. This was the best revenge against her ex-husband.She did not speak again that night.Once the sun rose, it signaled a new beginning.In the following days, both Serenity and Liberty were busy.Duncan continued to have daily breakfast at All You Can Eat, give Liberty flowers, and send her all kinds of gifts. Although Liberty rejected all his presents, he was still persistent.Zachary enrolled Sonny in Wiltspoon Learning Center. In September, Sonny would start his preschool education there.
“We have to be cautious during the first trimester. If you want to travel, we can do that after the baby is born. I promise I’ll have fun with you until you’re tired of it.”Josh made a promise to his wife. The baby in her womb was of utmost importance. Although Jasmine had a healthy body and nothing would probably happen as they were still in the early stages of the pregnancy, Josh did not dare to be careless. Therefore, after finding out Jasmine was pregnant, he stopped their trip immediately and flew back with her in a rush. He even borrowed his family’s private plane from Julian.Upon hearing his sister-in-law was pregnant, Julian took it seriously. Right after Josh called him, he arranged for a private plane to fly Josh and Jasmine back. Josh was the first person to have gotten married in their generation. The baby in Jasmine’s belly would be the first of the Bucham family’s new generation. After the entire family was informed of her pregnancy, they were excited. Their r
Elisa smiled and said, “You and Josh are so lucky to have gotten pregnant during your honeymoon. Congratulations, Jasmine. If we had known you were pregnant, we would’ve brought some supplements for you.“Seren heard from Zachary that you and Josh had ended your honeymoon and returned ahead of schedule. She was worried about you and brought me over in a rush to visit you. We didn’t manage to buy anything.”Jasmine said hastily, “You don’t have to give me supplements. Josh’s relatives had already sent many of them over before I returned. I was shocked.”Seeing how a huge family, especially a united one, gave gifts shocked her. “I’m in the early stages of pregnancy. There’s no need for additional supplements yet. I just have to eat three meals a day. Please don’t give me more supplements and let me off the hook.” Jasmine rubbed her palms together to beg her friends. It made all of them laugh. The maids served some fruits and desserts. Jasmine invited her two friends to enjoy the
“Mm, you two can decide. Let me know if there’s anything I can help with.” Jasmine felt she did not help much aside from contributing some money. She felt sorry. Serenity and Elisa said simultaneously, “You can just focus on caring for the baby.”Jasmine said, “I can work even if I’m pregnant. Many people still go to work even though they’re pregnant and only go on maternity leave closer to their due dates.”“That’s what other people do. You’re different from them. You should just stay at home and be a ‘national treasure’,” Serenity smiled and added, “With how nervous Mr. Bucham is, he probably won’t allow it if you want to visit the store.”Jasmine was speechless. After the three women chatted for some time, Josh knocked on the door. He entered the room while holding a drink placed on a tray. It was a supplement drink for Jasmine to replenish her nutrients. “Serenity, Zachary is here to pick you up. He’s downstairs.”Josh told Serenity as he walked over. He placed the
“No.“I just told Dad and Mom about the pregnancy. They’re elated too.” While Jasmine was chatting with her friends, Josh remembered that he had not informed his mother-in-law yet. He quickly called her to break the good news to her. The Sox family was happy after learning about the pregnancy. “Telling Dad and Mom is enough. Let’s not reveal it to the entire world for now. There’s a high risk of unexpected situations occurring during the early stages of pregnancy. It’s not suitable to spread the news too early. Revealing our pregnancy when it becomes stable after the first trimester isn’t too late anyway.”Josh nodded repeatedly. He also heard that families would rarely reveal pregnancies during the first three months because signs of miscarriage would occur easily in the early stages of pregnancy. If the pregnancy were announced too early, no one would feel good if a miscarriage were to happen. While Josh and Jasmine were discussing the baby’s matters in the room, Serenity a
“You guys were going to start an office in your hometown. How did it go? Did you guys manage to rent an office?”Zachary changed the topic. “We managed to rent an office and hired several managers. They’ll officially start working next Monday.”Zachary praised her, “You and Elisa are beginners in business, but you two are very efficient.”Serenity smiled and said, “It’s all Elisa’s work. She does things hurriedly, but she loves to push the responsibilities to me and let go after having a rough idea.”“I’ve said before that Elisa doesn’t have enough patience. That’s her personality. She’s lucky to have met such honest partners as you and Ms. Sox. Otherwise, she won’t even know if she’s being scammed.”Grandma May had a sharp eye for people. Back when Elisa liked Zachary, Grandma May had already told him that she was not suited to be the York family’s missus. However, he would not like Elisa even without Grandma May’s remarks. After all, he and Clive were like enemies. How c
