Ring, ring…Camryn’s phone rang.She hurriedly pushed away the man who took the opportunity to kiss her.Callum held her face, keeping her head in place, not allowing her to evade his kiss. In a low, hoarse voice, he said, “I don’t care.”With that, he clung to her, forcing her to entwine with him. Reluctantly, he finally let her go.The housekeeper stood outside Camryn’s room.Knowing that Miss Newman’s room was soundproofed, she did not knock on the door but called her instead.She did not answer the call.After she proactively ended the call, she waited briefly and dialed Ms. Newman’s number again.This time, the young miss picked up the call.“Ms. Newman, Mrs. York has arrived.”The housekeeper respectfully spoke over the phone.“Oh, she’s here. Please let her in, I’ll come downstairs soon.”Camryn’s voice sounded calm, without any hint of strangeness.The housekeeper could not guess what the two of them were discussing inside the room. An engaged couple alone in a ro

After Callum led Camryn downstairs, they approached their brother and sister-in-law to greet them.Camryn greeted them following Callum’s own greeting.They both sat opposite Zachary and Serenity.Serenity asked with concern, “Camryn, are you okay?”“It's nothing major, just a bit of pain in the back of my neck. Thanks for saving me, Serenity.”Camryn expressed her gratitude to Serenity.Serenity replied, “We are all family, there’s no need to be so formal. However, from now on, you should have bodyguards with you for added security. That way, we can all feel more at ease. It was fortunate that I happened to encounter you and rescued you today. Otherwise, the consequences could have been unimaginable.”Camryn was also a bit frightened after the fact. She said, “Just now, Callum told me the same thing. From now on, I’ll let the bodyguards be by my side at all times.”If she hadn’t taken over the Newman family business, she wouldn’t have needed bodyguards following her. Now thoug

Zachary said, “The rest of them are still overseas aside from Rowan, you, and me.”Rowan was still studying and usually lived in the school. He would only return home once a month.Callum was stunned for a moment before smiling. “I forgot all about that.”His cousins were on business trips or on their way to court their future wives. Only he and Zachary remained in Wiltspoon because their marriages were pretty much settled. “Nana isn’t home either.”Callum spoke in a reminiscing tone, “I was always tense whenever Nana was around. I feared I would make her dislike me or be targeted and punished by her. However, I miss her a lot after she started leaving home to travel.”Zachary did not continue the conversation, but he felt the same. Among his brothers, Nana had spent the most effort on his marriage. She was often worried whenever he and Serenity quarreled and gave each other the silent treatment. She even moved into his and Serenity’s house for a short period due to that r

Of course, Tania firmly denied that her son had issues. How could there be any problems with her strong and sturdy son?Liam took the prescription from his wife’s hand and looked at it. He did not know a thing about medicine and did not know the functions of it.He said, “It’s a prescription that a doctor hasn’t checked. How do we know if it’s suitable? Everyone’s condition is different.“Besides, we agreed not to urge them to have a child. If you pass this prescription to Serenity, she’ll think we’re urging her to get pregnant and feel pressured. She’s already stressed enough.“If you give the prescription to our son, he’ll definitely tear it in front of us.“Didn’t the psychic Mom hired say Zack and Serenity will have good news in the autumn? Just wait and see. I think they have no issues at all.”Liam said, “It might’ve been because of stress as they’re both busy with work. Don’t be hasty. We can’t seal the outsiders’ mouths no matter what they say, but we must stand behind Se

Liam said, “I’d advise you not to talk to our son and daughter-in-law about this to prevent a family war from breaking out.”“Mom isn’t around, and I don’t think I can handle your son. If you feel you’re able to persuade him, you can tell him about this.“I told you not to be hasty. They just got their marriage license a year ago, not ten or eight years ago. Why are you so anxious?”After a moment of silence, Tania said, “Actually, I’m still hoping that Serenity can get pregnant as soon as possible and give birth to our grandchild. That way, we can live a peaceful life while taking care of our grandchildren. She doesn’t even have to care for the child after giving birth. She can manage her business with no worries at all.“This issue will always be a thorn in my heart as long as she hasn’t given birth. Nevertheless, I don’t dare to be too obvious about urging her to get pregnant.”Tania wished her daughter-in-law could be like the wives in other wealthy families who stayed home to

After hiding the prescription, Tania stood and walked out as if nothing had happened. The butler looked toward Liam. Liam asked him, “Is Sonny here too?”“I didn’t see Mr. Sonny.”Liam made a disappointed sound. Then, he took a newspaper and opened it up to read it. He said, “If Sonny isn’t here, I don’t have to welcome my son outside since I’m the father.”The butler could not resist laughing. Sonny was a favorite among the older ones here. It was mainly because there were no children in Wildridge Manor. Whenever Sonny followed his aunt to the manor, he would become popular. Everyone would be fighting to take care of him. Additionally, the child was sensible and a smooth-talker. Naturally, people like Liam, who were waiting to have grandchildren and entering their senior years, adored Sonny. As soon as Tania walked out of the house, she saw her son and daughter-in-law walking over hand in hand. Her son was holding a few bags in his other hand. She knew the bags had gift

It seemed like Serenity did not get her mother-in-law’s hint. She smiled and said, “Oh, that’s true. Anyone who meets Sonny will like him.“Everyone at FC Manor adores Sonny too. Old Mrs. Johnson was sad when I had to bring him back.”Serenity walked into the house while holding her mother-in-law’s arm. Tania laughed. She said, “Old Mrs. Johnson will miss Sonny, but your nana misses the Johnson family’s baby girl. She even wished she could’ve stolen the baby girl back.”“You’re right. Nana had her eyes fixed on Chloe once she saw her. She could sit by the crib all day and not feel bored.”Tania grinned. “If it were me, I’d be like your nana. I won’t get bored looking at the baby all day.”The York family, mostly made up of men, liked daughters. It was not only Grandma May who had their eyes fixed and their legs pinned whenever they saw someone else’s baby girl. “If you’re bored at home, you can go to the city to have fun or move in with us. It’s merrier with more people around

Serenity did not sit still. After putting her bag down, she got up and followed her mother-in-law into the kitchen. Zachary greeted his dad and placed the vitamins on the coffee table. He said, “Dad, Serenity bought these for you and Mom.”After speaking, he sat beside his dad and glanced at the newspaper. He asked, “What news are you reading?”“I’m just taking a look to pass the time. Why didn’t you bring Sonny back? I won’t be as bored if he’s here.”Although playing with a child was torturous and tiring, Liam liked doing it. Whenever Sonny came, he would follow Sonny around.“Sonny’s father woke up. Liberty’s bringing Sonny to the hospital to visit his father tomorrow.”Liam said, “Oh, I see. That man woke up?”He knew how Hank used to treat Liberty. He felt Hank had brought everything upon himself. It was retribution. If he were any more evil, he would have hoped Hank never woke up. “Yes, he regained consciousness and is able to eat now,” Zachary said in a low voice.
