Chapter 2020
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
Chapter 2023
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.

Chapter 2024
“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
Chapter 2025
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

This was just Chelsea’s character, but she knew how to be grateful. She added, “Besides, who is Liberty earning so much money for? It’s all for my nephew. Sonny is a Brown and will always be a Brown. Why would I sabotage them? I’d love for Liberty’s business to grow bigger so that when Sonny takes over it, I can ask him to arrange jobs for his cousins. I think he won’t refuse it.” Mr. and Mrs. Brown glared at their daughter. Being stared at by her parents, Chelsea pouted and said, “I’m just saying. Who knows what will happen in the future? For all we know, the Reptons’ business will also get better, and my children will also become rich in the future.” Following that, Chelsea got up and took out a bunch of grapes from the fruit bag and put it on the bedside table. She then picked up the rest of the grapes and box of supplements. She said to her parents, “Dad, Mom, I also just recovered and still need to rest. I’ll be heading back first. Call me again when Hank can start taking
Chapter 2027
When Liberty walked out of the inpatient department, she saw Duncan. She stopped and locked eyes with him. Soon, she walked over. “Mr. Lewis, what brings you here?” “I just finished my rehab and came out for a break. I wanted to go to your new store to look for you but happened to see you driving away, so I followed you here.” Duncan answered honestly. He saw Liberty heading to the hospital and guessed that she was visiting her ex-husband, so he followed her over to take a look. Duncan knew Liberty would not get back together with Hank, but he was still scared and on guard. As long as Liberty came to the hospital, he would either follow her here, sulked at home, or lose his temper. The good-tempered Duncan in the past was gone after his car accident, and his temper became unstable. Everyone else from the Lewises was careful toward him and even pampered him. As long as he was happy, he could do whatever he wanted. “Did you go to see Sonny’s dad?” Duncan asked. Li
