“Sonny, isn’t this little girl adorable?” Grandma May asked Sonny as she stared at Chloe. “Yes, very cute. Great-grandma, when will I have a little sister too?” Sonny also wanted to touch the little girl, but Grandma May was worried that he could not control his force as he was young. She gently patted away his hand and said, “Don’t simply touch her. You’ll hurt the baby if you can’t control your force well. The baby’s skin is very tender.” “...Great-grandma, I haven’t even touched her. How do you know I’ll hurt her? You just don’t want me to touch her,” Sonny responded. Grandma May was touching the little girl here and there as though she was touching a rare treasure, but she would not let Sonny touch her. “Yes, yes, yes, I don’t want you to touch the little girl. I like her too much. How good would it be if she were my great-granddaughter?” Grandma May proceeded to touch Chloe’s small feet again. “Great-grandma, her feet are so small.” Grandma May replied to him witho
It had not been a year since Zachary and Serenity got their marriage license. It was almost September and they received their license in October. Moreover, they had only really been a married couple for half a year. Those people who said that Serenity was infertile were just jealous of her and deliberately wanted to rile her up and hurt her. Grandma May agreed with Jane. “That’s right. If you hear anyone say that about you again, Seren, slap them hard in the face. You don’t need to be afraid of offending anyone. As long as you’re not doing something illegal, no matter who it is, I can help you set things right. “Even if I can’t, you still have Zack. He can hold up the sky for you even if it falls.” Serenity said, “I didn’t hear those remarks myself; people I know just told me that Tom, Dick, and Harry said bad things about me behind my back again. If I heard it myself, I would’ve certainly slapped them hard in the face. “I don’t need them to worry about my affairs.” “Exactly.
“Grandma May, Seren, let’s go downstairs for lunch.” Jane invited the two and waved at Sonny. She said with a gentle smile, “Sonny, come, I’ll carry you.” Sonny looked at the two babies and then at the beautiful Aunt Jane. At last, he reluctantly walked toward Jane and said, “Aunt Jane, I’m grown up, so I don’t need to be carried.” Jane took his small hand. “Then I’ll hold you as we walk.” She said to Serenity, “Sonny is also a very well-behaved child. He’s much better than Connor. That boy cries every day and can compare to Lilian’s kid.” Dr. Lilian Carden’s son was born not too long ago. She was in confinement at the moment. When Callum knew Lilian had given birth, he quickly got someone to send her supplements. After all, she was his fiancée’s last hope to cure her eyes. Tim’s face was dark when he received the supplements sent by Callum. He put them in a corner. In any case, his wife did not lack supplements. They could not even finish the supplements at home, so why
The Johnsons were well aware of the fact that the Yorks had not had a daughter for several generations. Old Mrs. Johnson had a daughter but not a granddaughter. Now that Jane gave birth to a great-granddaughter for her, it also made up for her regret of not having a granddaughter. She could not quite empathize with how much Grandma May hoped for a great-granddaughter. Zachary and Serenity had been married for almost a year, yet Serenity was still not getting a baby bump. Old Mrs. Johnson did not dare to talk too much with Grandma May about children, worried that Grandma May would put pressure on Serenity due to her eagerness for a great-grandchild. In fact, Serenity was in a rather difficult situation. Fortunately, she was married to Zachary. The Yorks had good family values, and the elders were open-minded such that they would not urge them to have kids. They also did not mind Serenity’s family background. This was the same as when the Johnsons did not despise Jane in the
It was just that Grandma May did not associate the Fishers of Jensburg with Mrs. Stone. Perhaps because Mrs. Stone had married into the Stones for decades and everyone was used to calling her Mrs. Stone, Grandma May neglected her maiden surname. Even Old Mrs. Johnson did not know her maiden family name. Mrs. Stone might be related to the Fishers of Jensburg. She was amazing when she was young. Even though she grew up in an orphanage, she was able to marry into a rich family, second only to the Yorks, and became Mrs. Stone with her brilliance. Her excellence might have been inherited from her family bloodline. Women of the Fishers—especially the eldest daughter—were especially amazing. Due to the nature of Grandma May’s previous job, she looked into some of the Fishers’ pasts when she was interested in them. For instance, the current matriarch killed her elder and younger sisters back then to gain her current position.Madam Fisher’s big sister was much older, twenty years ol
Grandma May stopped talking, and Old Mrs. Johnson quickly understood. Old Mrs. Johnson had a grave look on her face. There was no relationship between the Johnsons and Stones at the moment, but they would become in-laws if Remy married Elisa. Mrs. Stone’s surname was Fisher, which was a rare surname. It would be hard for people not to associate her with the Fishers of Jensburg. The Fishers experienced a bloodbath decades ago. Although not in the same city, the big families were still concerned. Old Mrs. Johnson thought that if Mrs. Stone was the daughter of the Fishers’ previous family head, and if she found out about her background and wanted to avenge her family, the Johnsons would have to help her. She looked at Grandma May. The old ladies looked at each other and sighed. Grandma May said, “If the day really comes, the Yorks won’t be able to stand by and do nothing either.” Mrs. Stone’s sister was Serenity’s mother. If she wanted to take revenge and snatch back the f
It was said that the ladies of Annenburg always wanted to marry into the Johnsons. On the other hand, the woman of Wiltspoon would rack their brains to become a missus of the Yorks. Not only were they after the Yorks’ wealth and status, but they were also after the loyalty of the men in the family. After strolling around half of FC Manor, Serenity and Jane were tired. They tacitly agreed to go back and stopped walking. Sonny was still a small child and could not walk so long. Serenity had to carry him on her back on their way back. Serenity, who was carrying the little one, said to Jane, “This is the time I miss Zachary more. If he were here, I wouldn’t need to carry Sonny.” Jane laughed out loud. “Mr. York would be sad if he heard that. He’ll surely say that you only think of him because of guys from other families.” Serenity blushed slightly and asked Jane in return, “Mr. Young-Johnson must often complain about you too, am I right? Guys of other families—your tone is so
After knowing who Serenity was, Dr. Carden said to her, “Mr. Callum is your brother-in-law, right? When you go back, tell him that I’ll go treat his fiancée’s eyes after confinement, which lasts forty days.” Serenity smiled and said, “I’ll definitely deliver your message, Dr. Carden. Callum has been looking forward to it for a long time.” Tim, who was holding his son at the side, had a rather dark expression. When Lilian looked sideways at him, he pretended as if nothing was wrong and continued to indulge their son. The legendary doctor whispered to Laurence, “Boy, you have to inherit your teacher’s toughness in the future. Don’t learn from your Uncle Tim to be afraid of your wife.” Laurence called Jane Mama, and he used to call Tim Uncle Tim. Now that his teacher became his uncle’s wife, he could not correct himself. As such, Lilian told Laurence not to correct himself and called them whatever he wanted. If Uncle Tim dared to ignore him, he could tell her. His teacher woul
