Little did she know that after spreading the matter, the outcome was not what Celine imagined? Everyone said that Caroline did well. Why should a fake drive a million-dollar luxury car? Even if it was taken back from Celine and sold for cash, it was better than letting her use it. Afterward, the conflict between Celine and Caroline became deeper. At this moment, when Celine saw Caroline getting out of the Maybach in a woman’s suit, she could not help but ask, “Sis, where did you go today? You’re wearing such formal clothes.” “I went to work. Don’t you know I have to go to work every day? Weren’t you like this too?” Caroline’s response immediately rendered Celine speechless and jealous. Yes, Celine used to be like Caroline. She had to go to work every day and followed their mom to learn how to manage the Fishers’ business. She had to meet with clients every day to talk about business and socialize, thus she was extremely busy. Although Celine was busy, she could enjoy the
Caroline heard Celine’s shout, so she stopped in her tracks and turned to look at Celine. After some thought, she walked back and went in front of Celine. She leaned slightly toward Celine’s ear and said softly, “What’s the use of them loving you? I’m the one who will succeed the family head!” Once she became the family head, the first thing she would do would be to make Celine change her last name. She would not let Celine be a Fisher anymore, and she would ask back all the money Celine got from the Fishers little by little. Lastly, she would kick Celine out of the family. Why should the person who harmed her still be able to enjoy glory and wealth in the family? Her parents and brothers had been with this fake daughter for more than twenty years and had affection for one another. However, she did not have feelings for Celine, so she would not show her any mercy. Caroline was able to establish her company after graduating from university. She spent many years stumbling along
Caroline’s words were extremely heartless, but they were the truth. Ever since the incident of the real and fake daughters, Celine’s status among the elites of Jensburg declined sharply and took a great fall. Those who used to befriend her and even fawned over her were now staying far away from her. Even if she could still be active in the upper class and was still the darling of her family, the people in this circle were sophisticated. As much as she was being favored at home, the people outside no longer showed her face. The rich guys she used to disdain only surrounded Caroline now. Caroline stood up straight and smiled with squinting eyes. “Are you happy now? Then I’m going back inside. Don’t be a b*tch in the future, and don’t think I’m a pushover!” Following that, Caroline turned around and walked toward the main house again. Celine was left standing there. Her face was red and her expression was dark. She gritted her teeth and muttered to herself, “Caroline, one da
Duncan never conducted rehabilitation sessions whenever Liberty was present. He did not want her to see his pathetic state. Sonny hummed in understanding. Then, he asked, “When’s Uncle Zak coming out, Aunt Ser?”Serenity looked toward the company building. She said, “He’ll be out in a few more minutes.”She had told Zachary about fetching him from the office and having a meal together afterward. He would definitely get off work early. As she spoke, Sonny pointed at the tall man walking out. He exclaimed happily, “Uncle Zak is here, Aunt Ser.”He escaped Serenity’s hand and ran into the building. Zachary just exited the company building. He had good eyesight, so he spotted Serenity standing at the company entrance with a bouquet. She was like a light that attracted him to go to her as fast as possible. “Uncle Zak,” Sonny shouted as he ran. Zachary turned to instruct the bodyguards, “Go and get the car. I’ll wait at the entrance.”The bodyguards obeyed him respectfully. T
Sonny opened his mouth to counter his uncle, but he was too young. He got flustered because he could not retort Uncle Zak’s words at all. His flustered look made Zachary laugh. Zachary peppered Sonny’s face with kisses again. It was to the extent the child had to push Zachary’s face away and wipe his small face with his hand. Sonny said unhappily, “Your saliva is all over my face from the kisses.”Zachary smiled and said, “You used to cover my face in your saliva just like this too.”Sonny went silent. When they almost reached the company doors, he wanted to be released from Zachary’s arms. Zachary put Sonny back on his feet. Sonny jogged to Serenity and raised his handsome face. He complained to her, “Aunt Ser, Uncle Zak covered my face in saliva. Please do the same to him for me later.“He only thinks of me while doing something else. He doesn’t like me as much anymore.”Serenity laughed and said, “Did Uncle Zak bully you? Okay. I’ll avenge you after we get back home.”S
As Serenity stared at Zachary, he bent to whisper by her ear, “Don’t look at me like that, Seren. I won’t be able to resist kissing you.”“Uncle Zak, what secrets are you sharing with Aunt Ser?” asked the little third-wheeler, neglected by the adults, curiously. Serenity pushed Zachary lightly. Zachary stood up and looked downward at the little third-wheeler. He patted Sonny’s head resignedly and said, “Sonny, you really are a third wheel.”“Uncle Zak, my name’s Sonny, not Third Wheel. I’m not a wheel!”Serenity lifted her nephew with a laugh and walked toward Zachary’s car. As she walked, she smiled and said, “You’re right. Sonny isn’t a third wheel. Your uncle was just teasing you.”“Why does Uncle Zak keep calling me a third wheel, Aunt Ser? A wheel can spin quickly, but I can’t. Uncle Zak’s talking nonsense.”Zachary opened the door for Serenity like a gentleman. He said, “Yes. I was talking nonsense. Sonny’s the most serious child who won’t spout nonsense.”“I’m a good kid
Sonny seemed to understand, but he still looked confused. After some time, a few cars stopped outside Liberty’s new store. Duncan sat at the entrance, waiting for Sonny. His bodyguard stood behind the wheelchair. Zachary opened the door and got out of the car. Then, he turned to carry Sonny out of the car. Once Sonny’s feet touched the ground, he escaped Uncle Zak’s grip and jogged toward Duncan.“Don’t run so quickly, Sonny.”Duncan was anxious upon seeing that. He called Sonny not to run so fast. At the same time, he wished he could lift Sonny. However, he could not yet walk or move fast enough in a wheelchair. The child ran fast. Duncan only moved his wheelchair slightly, but Sonny already arrived in front of him. “Dunc.”Initially, Sonny wanted to climb onto Duncan’s lap. He had already positioned himself to climb but soon gave up because Dunc’s legs had not recovered. He could not sit on Dunc’s lap. Duncan saw Sonny’s slight movement and felt glad. The child a
Duncan hugged the child tight. He told Liberty, “The pain isn’t that bad now. I only feel it in my legs when I walk. It’s fine when Sonny sits like this.”Liberty said, “You have to voice out if you feel unwell. Don’t hold it in.”As she spoke, she still carried her son away from Duncan. Only then did she greet Zachary and Serenity. “Liberty.”Serenity gave her sister a hug. After the sisters hugged each other, Serenity observed Liberty and said, “We haven’t met for only several days, but I feel like you’re different.”Liberty laughed. “What’s different? I’m still the same.”“Mom, I’m hungry,” Sonny told Liberty. Next, Serenity lifted her nephew and said to her sister, “Liberty, Mr. Lewis, let’s go and eat.”“Okay.”Zachary went behind Duncan and pushed his wheelchair while Duncan’s bodyguard walked with Zachary’s team. Liberty and Serenity were in front, accompanying Sonny. Zachary asked his friend in a whisper, “Has there been progress between you and my sister-in-la
