"I just adore Noelle and want to dote on her, but Noelle dotes on you too."Jane continued, "Noelle values you more than her own life. Since she already cares for you so deeply, the rest of us should care for her more."Listen closely, Laurence. Don't give Noelle too much work from now on. Don't tire her out."If it's something you can handle yourself, do it. If you can't, leave it to someone else. Let Noelle have some free time to rest and enjoy her life. She's been by your side for so many years without ever getting the chance to enjoy herself."Although Noelle always enjoyed an excellent standard of living, she was constantly busy. She followed Laurence everywhere, protecting him and never leaving his side. Having money meant little when she barely had time to spend it. In Jane's eyes, that meant Noelle had not truly enjoyed the good life."You should also rotate the bodyguards closest to you. Noelle should just focus on being your wife. You can entrust the major affairs of the

"If I don't audit, how am I supposed to find their mistakes and give them a reason to cause trouble? Manny and Tony have been running the Longbottom family for thirty years. Although they never managed to secure the position of family head, they've still accumulated considerable wealth and connections."By auditing the books, I can force them to cough up everything they've pocketed. If they can't bear to part with their gains, they'll start thinking about silencing me or sending another assassin after me."That was exactly what Laurence was waiting for. Once Tony and the others could no longer stand it and make a move against him, he would have the chance to wipe out all of them in one go.He could also use the opportunity to deal with all the parasites within the family and replace them with younger members who were capable and upright. After all, a new head needed new blood. Laurence naturally had to build a team of his own too.Jane said, "That goes without saying. Whoever takes

When they returned to their residence, the lights in the main hall were on. As for the guest courtyard next door, only the outdoor lamps were lit.The elders were gathered in the main hall, obviously waiting for them to return.Once the car came to a stop, Noelle got out carrying a stack of account books. Jane came out of the house and smiled warmly when she saw Noelle. "You two are back early today. Have you eaten?""Mom, Mr. Laurence didn't have any evening engagements, so we came straight back," Noelle replied. "We haven't eaten yet.""Then hurry inside and get something to eat. We've just finished dinner. We didn't know what time you'd be back, so we just saved some food for you and kept it warm in the kitchen. It's at the perfect temperature now."Fall in Havenmill feels just like winter back home."The mornings and evenings were already chilly."Once it’s fall, the temperature in Havenmill keeps dropping by the day. Winter gets really cold. Mom, make sure you wear extra la

Laurence's marriage was finally on the horizon, but all the bodyguards who had been by his side for years were still single. He ought to start thinking about their futures too and help them find girlfriends.However, matchmaking was probably better left to their elders.Jane or Serenity would both be happy to play matchmaker. Even Lilian enjoyed matching people together.Thinking about how Oliver was still single and how Lilian had started pressuring him to get married, Laurence decided Jane would be the better choice for the task.She could find a match for Connor and help his bodyguards too while she was at it.The driver chuckled. "Then I'll thank you in advance on behalf of all the guys.""You've all been with me for so many years. I won't let you down. As long as you're willing to get married, I'll definitely help you settle down and start families."The men Hawk had assigned to him were exceptionally capable. Naturally, they also had high standards when it came to choosing

"Whenever the acting head wanted something, he just told me and took it. Sometimes, he only called me after he'd already taken it. I don't get a chance to stop him. Even if I could, I wouldn't dare."Laurence stared at Stuart for a moment before saying gently, "It's been hard on you. I'll ask Manny about this. From now on, anyone who wants to take something from this residence must ask me or Noelle first."They can only take anything away once we've given our approval."Thinking he had managed to fool Laurence, Stuart quickly replied, "Yes, Mr. Laurence. I'll do as you say from now on."The next time someone tried to take anything, he could just bring up Laurence's name. Those used to getting things their own way would then resent Laurence. Did Laurence really think that his position as the family head was secure now?Laurence stood up and said, "I'll be moving in next week. Make sure this place is spotless and that everything is in order. I have very high standards when it comes

Even the accounts for the fresh tea had been falsified. Stuart recorded that Manny took some of it, while the rest was used as gifts. He even listed the recipients, but those names were all made up. In reality, he had sold the tea.Laurence would definitely find out.The new head's first crackdown had landed on a mere butler at the secondary residence."That was your mistake. What do you expect me to do? I can't help you. You're on your own."With that, Tony ended the call.His own family was already struggling to protect itself. How could he spare any concern for a mere butler like Stuart?Stuart was just an ordinary member of the Longbottom family. He was simply good at flattering people and had pleased Manny enough for him to be promoted to butler of the secondary residence. He had held the position for more than ten years ever since Manny became the acting head.Stuart spent all those years lining his pockets. Otherwise, how could his family have risen so far above the other
