Chapter 1151
Thinking about it, Duncan had a net worth of hundreds of millions. Everything he bought was of good quality and expensive. It was normal that he did not know how to ask for a discount. Liberty did not voice her thoughts. Duncan’s spending habits had nothing to do with her. She was simply his tenant. “Aunt Ser, when will I have a little sister?” Sonny asked innocently. Serenity served food for her nephew. “I don’t know either. Even if I got pregnant, what if it’s a little cousin brother?”She had been discussing with Zachary how the York family had always given birth to sons.She suspected the York family was not fated to have daughters. Sonny gave it some thought and said, “Aunt Ser, I want a little sister. I don’t want a cousin brother.”“Why don’t you want a little cousin brother?”“A cousin brother can’t wear skirts, just like me.” Serenity burst out laughing. When she saw her sister eating like a bird and not eating meat, she said, “Liberty, you’ve been waking up
Chapter 1152
Sonny was happy to see Zachary. His tiny body leaned toward Zachary. Zachary quickly put down the items in his hand to carry the child. Serenity bent over to pick up the two bags of fruits and a carton of milk he had bought. She said with a smile, “Why are you here? Didn’t you say you had a business engagement? I bought two bags of fruits for my sister, and now you too. We even bought the same types of fruits.”Zachary carried Sonny into the house. “That’s because our hearts are linked. Something came up, so my client can’t come over. Tonight’s schedule was canceled, so I rushed over to have a meal.” He knew that his beloved wife was at his sister-in-law’s place. That was one of the benefits of having bodyguards following Serenity. He could give Serenity freedom and not ask about her whereabouts during usual days, but he would also be able to find her with just a call if he wanted to know her location. “Liberty,” Zachary greeted. Seeing that her brother-in-law had come, Libe

Liberty kept quiet.Serenity spoke, “You never took care of Sonny before. He’ll not be able to get used to it and cry if you take him to your place. If you want to visit Sonny, you can come over every day during the daytime and play with him.” Mr. Brown said embarrassedly, “Serenity, we didn’t take care of Sonny before, so we’re trying to make up for it now. We’re old and bored at home. If we help your sister to take care of Sonny, she’ll be able to focus on earning money too.”He asked the child in his arms next, “Sonny, do you want to follow Granddad and Grandmom home?”Sonny asked, “Is Mom coming?”Mr. Brown was stunned. He replied, “Your mom isn’t going, but your dad is in Granddad and Grandmom’s home. Sonny, follow us back and stay with us, okay? That way, your mom won’t be tired as well.”Sonny twisted and turned to get down. He ran back to the table, climbed onto his chair, and sat down. “I want to eat. If Mom isn’t going, I won’t go too. I want Mom!”Mr. and Mrs. Brown
Chapter 1154
In Mrs. Brown’s words, her son would not be hers if she returned to her old home. Her son would be under Jessica’s complete control. Besides, Hank and Jessica had not held their wedding yet. Jessica said only to hold the wedding after their house renovation was done. She would appear more presentable that way. They were living in a rented house. Jessica’s family would not even have a place to stay if they were to have a wedding before that. If Mr. and Mrs. Brown could take care of Sonny, they would not be as bored as they were now and could nurture their relationship with Sonny. After all, Sonny was the Brown family’s only hope of continuing the family line. Jessica was not getting pregnant. They did not even know whether she was fertile or not. Liberty had vegetarian food. She finished her meal in no time. Seeing her former in-laws whispering to each other, she walked over and took the four bags of fruits her sister and brother-in-law brought to the kitchen. A few minutes
Chapter 1155
After Serenity and Zachary were done eating, he said to his wife, “Seren, bring Sonny and sit over there. I’ll collect the dishes.”Zachary would do chores at home, so Serenity was used to it. Since Zachary told her to bring Sonny to sit on the sofa, she carried Sonny over and sat beside her sister. After she was seated, three people looked at her. Her sister and her sister’s former in-laws were staring at her. Serenity was puzzled. “Liberty, why are you guys looking at me like that? Is there food stuck on my face?”She touched her face, but there was nothing on it. “Serenity, how can you let Mr. York clean up the dishes and do household chores?” Mrs. Brown scolded Serenity. “When a man returns home after working outside for the entire day, you should take care of him properly as his wife. Men will like returning home if you let them feel the warmth of family.”Serenity understood why the three of them stared at her. She said, “My sister took good care of your son in the
Chapter 1156
Sonny was Mr. and Mrs. Brown’s true grandson. When they returned to their rented house, they saw their son and daughter-in-law watching TV. Their expressions did not look good. “Dad, Mom, didn’t you pick Sonny up?”Hank stood up and turned toward his parents. He asked that question when he did not see his son. Jessica walked over too. She said, “I organized the smaller room and decorated it into a kid’s room. I bought a lot of toys for Sonny too. Why didn’t you pick him up?”Jessica had received a lock of hair and a note from an unknown woman. On it was written that the hair belonged to her mother. It also asked her to carry out the plan as soon as possible and bring Sonny to crowded places like the zoo or a children’s park. If she did not follow that woman’s instructions, the next item sent to her would be two of her mother’s fingers. Jessica was terrified. She counted on her in-laws to bring Sonny back, but they failed. How could she put her plan into action?Mr. and
Chapter 1157
Jessica pouted and did not say anything else. She turned around, went back to her room, and slammed the door hard. “Darling, darling.”Hank called her twice. Mrs. Brown said to her son, “Leave her alone. She just doesn’t want you going on an outing with Liberty. It’s not like you’re going out with Liberty alone. We’re all coming along, but she still chooses to be jealous.“Did she forget that she snatched you from Liberty?”Mrs. Brown disliked Jessica a lot. She used to think that her son was capable. At this moment, she disdained Jessica for being a homewrecker. The Brown family decided to pick up Sonny and Liberty to go to the zoo tomorrow afternoon. The weather was neither too cold nor hot—just lovely for an outing. On the other hand, Serenity and her husband returned home after lingering in her sister’s house for a while. On the way back, she told Zachary, “In the past, the Brown family said they loved Sonny, but those were just empty words. They never lent a hand. M
Chapter 1158
“Ask him what he wants.”Did Duncan have nothing better to do than drive a car and block his way in the middle of the night?Jim lowered the window and asked Duncan, who was walking over, “Why are you here, Mr. Lewis?”“Zachary’s in the car, right? Zachary, I want to stay at your place for some time. I’ve already brought my luggage. However, Sam said he could not make the decisions and didn’t let me enter. I had no choice but to wait for you here.”Zachary was speechless. If Duncan were not an old friend, he would have asked the driver to step on the gas and hit the car blocking the way. Serenity was surprised. Seeing her husband’s dark expression, she asked Duncan, “You want to move here, Mr. Lewis? Why?”“That woman keeps staying in my house and refuses to leave. She knows the address of the other houses I own too. She’ll be able to find me no matter where I stay. It’s annoying. I have no choice but to bring my luggage and trouble you two.”The woman Duncan spoke of was Lil
