Serenity was surprised. She pointed at the bouquet and bags in disbelief. “Julian sent these? The Julian that I know?” To her, while Julian seemed easygoing, he was not easy to get along with at all. He only showed her some face because she was Zachary’s beloved wife and Jasmine’s good friend. Moreover, Julian also said the last time that he had a hypoactive sexual desire disorder. It meant that while there were many women in the world, only one could make him a real man. That woman could not be Elisa. It was not Julian’s first time knowing Elisa. If Elisa were the destined woman for him, he would not be single until now. Mr. and Mrs. Bucham were crazily anxious about his marriage. The main thing was that Julian was not married and his brother also did not want to get married. Among his cousins, apart from Josh who was married, the others did not want to get married too. All of them used Julian as a shield, so his aunts and uncles had no choice but to complain to their bi
Serenity said to Elisa after some thought, “Right, Remy isn’t like that, and it’s also not easy to make Julian do something. It’s difficult for even Zachary to get him to do something. Every time we need his help, we need Josh to find him. “Elisa, no matter what Julian is up to, Remy is the one who benefits from it anyway. Doesn’t Aunt Audrey think that Remy is more suitable for you now? Your relationship with Remy will soon come to fruition.” Serenity was much more optimistic. Maybe because this was not happening to her, she was not as anxious as Elisa was. As long as Julian did not truly like Elisa, it would be fine. “But this is like a big rock hanging over me and Remy’s heads. We don’t know when it’ll fall.” Elisa sighed and said to Serenity, “I guess I’m not very lucky, always facing rocky roads when it comes to relationships.” Zachary was an exception as it was purely a one-sided love from her. Nonetheless, she and Remy were attracted to each other and well-matche
Serenity and Elisa chatted for a while more until Mr. Stone and Clive came home. Seeing as the father and son were back, Elisa and Serenity followed them into the house. Nonetheless, Serenity soon left the Stones’ residence because Zachary called her. She then went to York Corporation. Zachary had just finished a meeting. He left the meeting room and returned to his office as the CEO. As soon as he sat, Serenity knocked on the door and entered. “Honey.” When Zachary saw Serenity, he got up and went around his desk to welcome her. “You called me and asked me to come to your office. Is there something urgent? You didn’t want to tell me when I asked you on the phone.” Serenity hurriedly left the Stones to come here because Zachary asked her to, but he did not tell her why when she asked him. She was worried, so she quickly came over. Zachary pulled Serenity to sit on the sofa. He then poured a glass of warm water and took some snacks over for her before answering with a
“Have you told Aunt Audrey about it?” Zachary asked Serenity. “Yeah, I went to see her mainly to tell her that. She doesn’t remember her childhood events clearly. She only remembers that her family used to be quite well-off and that everyone called her Ms. Audrey. “She said her mom was particularly busy, so my grandpa kept her and my mom company. “She also said that her grandparents didn’t despise my grandma for giving birth to two daughters. In fact, my grandma was delighted. “Judging from this event that Aunt Audrey remembered, there’s a 95% chance that she’s the daughter of the last family head of the Fishers.” Zachary hummed and commented, “Fisher is a rare last name. Given that Aunt Audrey’s last name is Fisher, it’s easy to associate her with the Fishers in Jensburg. Now, it seems that our guess is right.” Serenity said after a moment of silence, “Aunt Audrey has a lot on her mind now. She needs some space now, and she also asked Uncle Darrell and Clive back. She said
“Doesn’t Julian know the consequences of doing that? If his dad finds out, neither he nor Elisa can live in peace,” Zachary added. Serenity chuckled and asked, “Does it really have nothing to do with you? Then why are you avoiding eye contact with me? You don’t dare to look me in the eye.” She held Zachary’s handsome face in place and forced him to look at her. “Zachary, you said you’d never lie to me again. If you do, you’ll sleep in the study for a year.” “I never said anything about sleeping in the study for a year,” Zachary said with guilt. He only said that he would not lie to her again but did not say that he would sleep in the study for a year. He could accept sleeping in the study for a day, but definitely not a year—not even a month. “You didn’t say that—I did. If you lie to me again, and I find out about it, you’ll sleep in the study for a year and won’t be able to touch me at all.” Zachary sulked and said, “Honey, you know that is worse than killing me.” “T
Serenity said to Zachary, “Even if your brothers come to you for help, as long as it is related to love, you shouldn’t help them in any way, lest it turns out bad. If you’re a playboy and womanizer, I wouldn’t care about you, and you can advise them as much as you want.” “I’m not a playboy, nor am I a womanizer. I have an extremely low EQ, and Josh often roasts me for having a negative EQ. “When they encounter difficulties in pursuing their wives in the future, I’ll let them ask you for advice.” Zachary gave Serenity the opportunity to help his brothers. That way, she would have more authority and a more stable position in front of them. “About Julian pursuing Elisa—” “You mustn’t let her know.” “I can help keep it a secret for you for now, but it’s also very troubling for Julian to keep doing this.” Zachary asked, “How about I talk to Julian and ask him to show up less?” Serenity wanted to agree to it right away, but she said after some thought, “Let’s wait and see. On
“These are some fruits and supplements. They’re for Sonny’s dad to replenish his body.” Liberty no longer addressed his ex-husband by his name and called him Sonny’s father, implying that she only came to visit because Hank was Sonny’s father. Without this connection, she would not want to enter Hank’s ward at all. Mr. and Mrs. Brown were also aware that Liberty was only here for the sake of their grandson. At this moment, they felt that it was right that Liberty was given Sonny’s custody in the past. Sonny had always followed Liberty and Serenity. Giving his custody to Liberty had no impact on his life, and Liberty could also give him the best education. The main thing was the small home where Liberty lived did not have many quarrels and conflicts that would affect Sonny’s young mind. “Chelsea.” Seeing that Chelsea was also present, Liberty politely greeted her ex-sister-in-law. After her divorce, Liberty was polite with her former in-laws. “Chelsea, have you recover
Mr. Brown also said, “Liberty, keep it for yourself. We’ll be content if you raise Sonny well.” Hank’s reputation had been ruined, so he probably would not remarry in the future. As for his marriage with Jessica, they would likely be divorced. In that case, the Browns would only have one grandson, Sonny. At this moment, Sonny was the most important person to Mr. and Mrs. Brown. As long as their grandson was well, everything came second. “My business is quite good, so I’m able to make some money. This isn’t much, so use it to buy some food for yourselves. I still have things to do in the store, so I’ll be heading back first. Once Sonny is on break on Saturday, I’ll bring him here to see his dad.” Liberty insisted on putting the money into Mrs. Brown’s hands. It was not much, only three hundred dollars. Mrs. Brown helplessly accepted the money and picked up the bag of fruits Liberty brought. She ran out and insisted that Liberty take the fruits away. Liberty refused, so t
