Chapter 1655
“Are you going home to get ready?” After pouring her heart out, Jasmine asked her best friend.Serenity responded, “I’ll send Sonny home first. He said he missed me after his class ended, so Jim sent him over.”She had to accompany her husband to attend the charity gala at night, so it was inconvenient for her to bring Sonny along.“Hurry up and leave. I’ll be here to watch the store. It’s been a long time since I last sat here. I wonder if those little monkeys miss me.”Jasmine referred to students as little monkeys.“Should I inform Mr. Bucham that you’re here watching the store?”Jasmine said, “No need. He knows about it. Look at that row of bodyguards. Even if I don’t tell him, won’t they do it? Josh won’t stop me from watching the store. All I do is use the cash register.”Serenity laughed. “Fine. You stay here and watch the store. I’ll send Sonny back.”“Go ahead.”Serenity held her nephew and left the bookstore.After Serenity left, Jasmine immediately headed to the ki

The bodyguards knew that Jasmine was not the sort who would put on airs. She meant it when she said she wanted to treat them to ice cream. Even if Josh found out, he would not tell them off.Boris headed to the shop Jasmine had mentioned to buy ice cream.After Boris left, Jasmine went into the store to wait for him. She was internally excited at the thought that she could eat ice cream soon.Boris came back shortly.However, he returned empty-handed.He gave the change to Jasmine.“Where’s ice cream?” Jasmine asked in puzzlement.Could it be that Perry’s shop had no more ice cream? That was not possible. During winter, Jasmine would always see ice cream in the freezer in his shop.“I’ve bought ice cream, and they’re having it now. I came to return the change to you. Missus, thank you for treating us to ice cream.”Boris returned the change to Jasmine and thanked her for the treat on everyone’s behalf.It felt refreshing to eat ice cream on a hot day.While receiving the cha

Sonny immediately called Camryn once again. This time, he roared.Camryn finally recovered from her musings.She panicked a little and extended her hand to touch Sonny. After reaching for Sonny, she revealed a gentle smile. “Sonny, you’re here. Did you come with your mom?”Liberty would sometimes drop by Spring Blossoms to buy a few plants.The flowers that Liberty grew always ended up dead probably because she did not have time to take care of them. When they died, she would buy a few more plants and ask Camryn for advice on how to take care of them.“I came with Aunt Ser. Cammy, you didn’t notice that Aunt Ser and I came in. I called you just now, but you didn’t respond.”Camryn replied apologetically, “I’m sorry, Sonny. I was lost in thought, so I didn’t hear your aunt’s and your footsteps.”She turned her eyes to Serenity. “Hello, Serenity. What brings you here?”“I’ll be going with Zachary to a charity gala tonight, so I planned to close the store in the afternoon to get r

Serenity poured three glasses of water and gave one glass to her nephew. Then, she brought over two glasses of water and sat in front of Camryn. She handed one of them to Camryn. Serenity and Camryn drank half the glasses of water.“Camryn, go ahead. What do you want to ask me?”“It seems that Callum went missing these two days. Is he away on a business trip?”Serenity was surprised that Camryn asked about Callum’s whereabouts.Callum went to Annenburg to beg Dr. Carden to treat Camryn’s eyes. He did not tell Camryn about it. Before he received Dr. Carden’s promise to treat Camryn’s eyes, he planned to keep it from her to avoid disappointing her.Aunt Evelyn went to search for the doctor’s apprentice to treat Camryn’s eyes. As she was not as well-connected as Callum, she had no idea that Dr. Carden had returned to Annenburg.The apprentice was Camryn’s last hope. Although she did not mention it, Callum knew that she held high hopes for it.If he failed to get Dr. Carden’s prom
Chapter 1659
At that moment, Serenity was stumped for words.As Camryn had said, Serenity felt that she did not deserve to be with Zachary because of her background.For Camryn, however, the problem was her health.Serenity was silent for a moment before she comforted Camryn, “Camryn, your eyes will be fine. Callum will hire the best doctor to treat your eyes.”Callum had gone to Annenburg.Nobody knew about his situation.Camryn soon put her despondence behind her. She wore her usual smile and said to Serenity, “Serenity, let’s drop this subject. It’ll be better for Callum to be away on a business trip. Now that we’re apart, we can calm down. Perhaps he’ll give up on me.” It would be a lie to say that she had no feelings for Callum. It was still difficult for Camryn to accept him.She always felt that her blindness made her unworthy of Callum who was outstanding.He should marry a woman who was better than her.Serenity said, “Callum won’t give up on you unless he has no feelings for yo
Chapter 1660
Duncan carried Sonny into the house and closed the door. With a grin, he asked the kid, “I’m a boss. I can choose not to go to work. Nobody can control me, and I don’t have to worry that my salary will be cut.”Sonny said, “Oh. But Uncle Zak is a boss too. Why does he have to go to work every day?”Duncan replied, “Uncle Zak’s company is larger than mine. He has more things to handle, so he needs to work every day.”Sonny was convinced.Duncan put him down.The kid had a lot of whys in his mind. If one was not quick enough to react, one would be stuck.“Liberty.”Duncan walked to Liberty with a bouquet of flowers in his hand. He looked at her affectionately while handing the bouquet to her.“Mr. Lewis, I don’t like flowers. Don’t send them to me next time, okay?” Liberty said helplessly.Although she had rejected Duncan numerous times, he continued to send her flowers.When Duncan noticed that she did not accept the bouquet, he searched for a vase and put the bouquet in it. H
Chapter 1661
Liberty never told Duncan anything about her conversation with Mrs. Lewis. However, he still found out from his mother. Upon discovering that his mother had made Liberty move out, move away, and even leave Wiltspoon with Sonny, he quarreled with his mother in anger. Mrs. Lewis was furious, and so was Duncan. Ultimately, the mother and son were unwilling to compromise. None of them would give up and let go. Liberty glanced at Duncan and continued what she was doing. She said, “If I’m not the problem, then I won’t make so many sacrifices.”Duncan laughed. He liked that side of Liberty. Sonny, who took the phone into a room, dialed Serenity’s number. He knew the first number in his mother’s contact list was Aunt Ser’s. Serenity picked up the phone shortly. “What’s the matter, Liberty?”She thought it was her sister who called. “Aunt Ser, it’s me, Sonny.”Hearing her nephew’s young voice, Serenity smiled and said, “Hey, Sonny. Did you call me yourself?”“Yeah. I too

“Yes. He treats me well.”A child’s heart was pure. Despite their young age, they were aware of who treated them well or when someone was pretending. However, they could not express themselves due to their age sometimes. Duncan noticed Sonny first. He truly liked Sonny and would always want to carry him back then.At that time, Sonny was still young and scared of the scar on Duncan’s face. Therefore, he refused Duncan’s embrace. Duncan’s wish to carry Sonny only came true after they became familiar with each other. Duncan only paid attention to the mother and son duo because he adored Sonny. He gradually fell in love with Sonny’s mother, Liberty. “If Dunc treats you well and likes you so much, how will he bear to take your mother away? Believe in Duncan. He’ll only love you together with your mother. He won’t steal her away.”Sonny felt reassured. He said, “I won’t call Dad then, Aunt Ser. Dad always says Dunc is evil.”Dunc was so nice. He did not understand why Dad wo
