Chapter 2363
The Browns were not blessed enough to keep a good daughter-in-law like Liberty. “The doctor said I could be discharged and recuperate at home. Staying in the hospital is expensive.”Hank added, “I almost depleted my family’s assets.”He planned to follow his parents back to their hometown and sell the house they owned in the city. Otherwise, his family would struggle financially. Since he had included Jessica’s name on the title deed, he needed to inform her beforehand that the house would be sold. Jessica had been found guilty in two cases and sentenced to prison for decades.She utterly regretted her wrongdoings. Liberty nodded. She said, “Rest well at home and don’t think about working just yet. You can pay Sonny’s child support for the following year after you resume working.”Chelsea wanted to chime in at that point. She felt Liberty was too cruel for demanding Hank to pay child support despite his weak state. However, Hank said quickly, “Don’t worry. Sonny’s my son.
Chapter 2364
Chelsea and Hank left. In subsequent days, Hank sold his house after obtaining Jessica’s permission. He initially wanted to split the money with her, but she refused. The house was bought before Hank’s first marriage. Even Liberty could not receive the house as compensation during their divorce, let alone her. Jessica wanted Hank to hand over her share of the sale to Liberty and Sonny. She had wronged them the most. Whether Liberty accepted it or not, Jessica was repenting for her mistakes in her own way. After that, Hank returned to his hometown to recuperate. Aside from visiting Sonny occasionally, he and his family never again appeared before Liberty for any other matters. The Browns eventually faded out of everyone’s lives. …At the Newmans’ villa, Trenton stood outside the gates with a black backpack. However, he did not press the doorbell. It was his home. Well, it was Camryn’s home, to be exact. Trenton’s grandparents had given the villa to Abel, whom his own pa
Chapter 2365
“I see.”Trenton was deep in thought.After discovering what his parents had done, he had been suspicious whether the doctor in charge of treating Camryn back then had died of natural causes. His parents could have played a part in it. “Why did you return all of a sudden, Mr. Trenton?”The maid found it weird. Was Trenton not supposed to be studying at the university?It would have made sense if he returned during a long break but the break was already over.“I requested a leave of absence because I was worried about Camryn.”Trenton revealed that he had taken some time off his studies to come home. “Camryn’s inside, right? I’ll go meet her.”He was eager to meet Camryn and verify that her eyes were recovering. “Ms. Camryn and Mr. Callum are together.”Trenton seemed to have missed the maid’s last sentence as he had gone inside the house in a hurry. Once he stepped inside, he saw his soon-to-be brother-in-law, Callum, entangled in a steamy kiss with his sister. Trento
Chapter 2366
Trenton walked over and glared at Callum. Callum smiled. “Why are you back?”Trenton was furious at him for taking advantage of Camryn. Even while blushing, he said angrily, “This is my house. I can come back whenever I want. It’s none of your business.”Callum did not argue with him. He knew Trenton had caught them making out and must have felt Callum was taking advantage of Camryn.“It’s me, Camryn.”Trenton approached Camryn and pushed Callum aside to stand before her in the most ideal position for her to see him clearly.They had been siblings for seventeen years, yet ten years had passed since she last saw her brother’s face. He was merely a second grader when she lost her vision and in a flash, he was now a university student.Instead of being displeased from being pushed aside, Callum smiled. He said, “Trenton, your sister can see in close distances now, albeit slightly blurry. Dr. Carden likened her eyesight to that of a person with severe myopia without their glasses
Chapter 2367
Camryn hugged Trenton after calming down. Trenton glanced at Callum, worried he would get jealous. He had heard rumors of how overbearing his future brother-in-law was, but Callum could probably tolerate it since he was Camryn’s brother. Trenton recalled that Camryn was cold and often ignored him when he was young. However, when he fell, she would always help him up and soothe him in her arms.Trenton had liked Camryn for as long as he could remember. His aloof sister would only express her concern whenever he fell down. Hence, he liked falling because it was the only way to make Camryn show her concern for him. In his memories, her embrace was frail yet heartwarming. When Trenton was younger, he could never understand why his mother treated Camryn badly or why Camryn always ignored him. As he grew older, he finally discovered that he and Camryn did not share the same father. Although they shared the same mother, Paige never liked Camryn. Whenever Trenton saw Camryn gett

“Okay.”Camryn got Trenton to sit. She asked, “Why did you come back all of a sudden? There are no special occasions. Don’t you have classes?”“I was quite worried after our call last time. I wanted to know how you were doing after the treatment, so I requested a leave of absence to visit you.”“You could’ve done it over a call. You should return to school as soon as possible after a brief stay.” Callum chimed in, “Since Trenton’s home, he can attend Zachary’s wedding before heading back to uni.”Camryn asked how many days of leave Trenton had requested. “A week.”Zachary and Serenity’s wedding would be held in three days. Camryn said, “You can return to school after attending Zachary’s wedding. Next time, don’t skip classes if there’s nothing urgent. You should concentrate on your studies and come home during the winter break. I can arrange an internship for you to train yourself.”She would never monopolize Newman Enterprise. Trenton would always have a share. “I’m not
Chapter 2369
Brenda and Amy, who were once the young ladies of the Newmans, had lost their arrogance and elegance. They stood at the villa’s entrance in ordinary clothing with not a piece of expensive jewelry in sight. Neither were any Hermès bags. They even took a taxi over because they did not have a car. The two families had sold everything they could to pay off their debts and had no choice but to live in rented houses. Although Amy and Brenda were born into the Newmans when they were not as rich as now, they were still well-off. The sisters had never experienced hardships or financial struggles. They obtained a generous amount of money from their parents when they got married because then the family had become wealthier. Their husbands’ families were equally rich. Now, despite being grandmothers, they were forced to live in poor conditions after losing their wealth. Job finding was difficult due to their old age and pampered attitude. The only job available for them was to be cle
Chapter 2370
So what if Dr. Carden was the legendary doctor’s best disciple?He was still human and there were bound to be illnesses and complex conditions that he could not cure. “Trenton, Trenton.”Amy and Brenda were delighted to see Trenton behind Camryn. Their nephew was easier to talk to compared to their niece.In the past, they would join Cain and Paige in bullying and abusing Camryn. Despite knowing Camryn was a victim, they remained as bystanders and wished for her death. That said, Camryn’s hatred and desire for revenge was understandable. In contrast, Amy and Brenda loved their one and only nephew. Prior to joining the fight for inheritance, they had hoped the Newman family could become more influential. That way, they could each hold more authority in their husband’s family and no one would have dared to look down on them. “Stop calling Trenton. He has no say in this.”Camryn walked over and talked to her aunts with the gates between them. Callum was not with her becaus
