Chapter 340
Author: Gu Lingfei
“Why are you so stubborn?”

“Yeah, I’m just that stubborn.”

Clive was exasperated.

“Zachary won’t develop feelings for you, and the York family won’t pick you either.”

He analyzed for his sister. “Old Mrs. York is an adult child. Out of her nine grandchildren, except for the youngest two who aren’t at marriageable age yet, the remaining seven are ready to get married. She’s looking forward to her grandchildren getting married.

“It’s been some time since you publicly professed to Zachary, but what did Old Mrs. York do? She did nothing. It’s as if she doesn’t know that you’re pursuing Zachary. Do you know why? It’s because she doesn’t want you as her eldest granddaughter-in-law.

“Otherwise, with her personality, she’ll definitely encourage Zachary if she knows that someone is openly pursuing him. She might even do something excessive like wrapping him up and sending him to your bed so you two can do the deed. That way, she’ll be able to have a great-grandchild as soon as possible.

    Clive saw his sister’s pale face and knew that she must be devastated.He had been in love before. Although he had a happy marriage, he had experienced sadness and despair before that. Thus, he knew that feelings could hurt one deeply.Clive could also tell that Zachary would not fall in love with Elisa, so if Elisa continued to pester Zachary, she would be the one who would get hurt in the end. It was better to let her give up on Zachary as soon as possible.He sighed and said, “Elisa, it’s not that I don’t want to help you investigate Zachary. Think about who’s working for him – Josh Bucham. You know what the Buchams are capable of. Once I do a background check on Zachary, Zachary will know.“Do you think Zachary will let me find out? Besides, I’ve arranged for most of my subordinates to look for our aunt.”Elisa was silent.She knew what her brother said was true.Josh Bucham worked for Zachary, and everyone in Wiltspoon knew what the Buchams were best at.“Elisa, there are

    Zachary hesitated and struggled for ten minutes before he pushed open the door to get out of the car and walked into the florist.“Sir, would you like to buy flowers? Are they for your girlfriend?”After Zachary looked around the shop, he said to the shopkeeper, “It’s for my wife.”The shopkeeper smiled. “Is this for a birthday or wedding anniversary?”“Neither. I just want to give her flowers.”The shopkeeper smiled. “What about a bouquet of roses interspersed with baby’s-breath?”Zachary had never bought flowers for a woman. He thought the shopkeeper’s suggestion was good, so he nodded and said, “Sure, whatever you see fit.”“Please wait for a moment.”The shopkeeper could tell this was the first time this man was buying flowers for his wife.After a while, the shopkeeper handed a bunch of flowers to Zachary. Zachary took the bouquet and paid the bill before turning around and walking out of the florist with the bouquet in hand.Zachary put the bouquet in the passenger seat

    Zachary was exceptionally patient and would do whatever Sonny asked him to do. He would also teach Sonny some new ways to play with the toys.Serenity could not help but think that Zachary would be a responsible father when he has his own children.“What’s the matter?”Jasmine noticed that her friend was staring in a certain direction, so she leaned over and found her friend looking at Mr. York. She suddenly laughed ambiguously and nudged Serenity’s shoulder. “Do you think your husband is particularly handsome?”“There’s no need to think about it. He has always been a handsome guy.”“Hurry up and jump him then. Look how nice and patient he is with Sonny. Although he looks like a block of ice, he’s actually quite soft-hearted. He must like children very much. You should jump him and get down to it, then you can give birth to a baby as good-looking as him. How great is that?”Serenity laughed. “You talk as if I’m just trying to have a baby.”She paused and whispered, “Even if I ju

    Serenity said, “My sister said she’s not coming over for lunch because her office is quite far from here. It’s troublesome to go back and forth since she doesn’t have a long lunch break. They have an office cafeteria, so she’ll be eating there.”Zachary hummed.“When Liberty comes back from work in the evening, you should ask her if she can adapt to the company and if anyone bullies her. I’m quite close with Mr. Lewis, so if someone bullies her, I will ask Mr. Lewis to back her up.”Serenity turned her head to look at him again. “No wonder my sister loves you so much. She always tells me to treat you well.”Zachary blushed slightly.He had always been on his best behavior in front of his sister-in-law.Due to time constraints, Serenity prepared a simple lunch.Fortunately, Zachary ate with relish and did not dislike it at all.Serenity thought that apart from not eating bacon, green onions, garlic, and coriander, he was actually quite easy to please.After the meal, Zachary di

    Zachary looked at Serenity silently for a moment and was still keeping mum. He then turned around and left.Serenity opened her mouth and wanted to stop him, but she gave up. Since he did not want to say anything, it was useless even if she pried his mouth open.“His silence is so annoying. Why can’t he just say it frankly?”Serenity criticized Zachary’s reticence.Humans were curious beings, and Zachary piqued Serenity’s curiosity by being so hesitant to speak. She always wondered what he was trying to say.Within two minutes, the quiet man came in with a bouquet of roses.Serenity looked at him, dumbfounded.She could not believe that Zachary was holding a bunch of flowers.Serenity rubbed her eyes and looked at him again to confirm that the man was indeed Mr. York.‘Is he going to give me the flowers?’For some reason, Serenity’s heart raced, and every nerve in her body suddenly tightened. Hell, she was so nervous!Zachary did not hand the bouquet to Serenity. Instead, he

    Serenity said, “My husband gave it to me. Isn’t it pretty? I think it’s beautiful. I love it!”After taking countless photos of the bouquet, Serenity put down her phone to pick up the bouquet and took a sniff. “It smells so good too!”To Shawn, this scene was an eyesore.“Oh, your husband gave it to you? What’s the occasion today? I haven’t seen him send flowers to you before.” Shawn’s smile was a little stiff. His tone was a little bitter as if he had a bone to pick.Serenity looked up at him and said, “Does it need to be an occasion for my husband to send me flowers? If I want, my husband can send me a bunch of flowers every day. I was just worried that he’d spend too much because a bouquet isn’t cheap. It’s not edible either. I told my husband that it would be better if he saved that money to buy meat instead of flowers. That’s why he never sent me flowers.”Shawn said, “Right…”"Shawn, are you looking for Jas? Why don’t you call her? She should be back soon.”“It’s nothing.

    Jasmine said, “Do you believe that it doesn’t mean anything? Seren, if you both have feelings for each other, you two should seize the opportunity. I’m still waiting to attend your real wedding so I can be your bridesmaid!”Jasmine teased her friend.“You’re thinking a little too far ahead.”“I don’t think it’s too far ahead. Haha! Seren, I’m going to grab a cup of coffee with Shawn. What do you want? I’ll get a takeout for you later.”Serenity thought about it for a while and said, “Just get me a cup of milk tea, please.”“Okay,” Jasmine replied immediately. “You watch over the store. I’m going to have coffee.”“Go ahead!”The store was not busy at this time anyway. Serenity would either be napping at the cashier or making her handicrafts.Jasmine left.Shawn was waiting outside.When Jasmine came out, the smile on her face faded.“Let’s go.”She went straight to Shawn’s car.Shawn saw that his cousin’s expression was a little serious and he felt a little guilty for no re

    Zachary said he wanted the Hunts to be poorer than beggars.Josh replied with a smile, “There won’t be a good show if you crush them with a single blow.”Zachary was speechless.“You must be patient dealing with these people. Take it slow and let them lose everything they have bit by bit. It’ll be tormenting for them to try their best to fix their situation, yet they can only watch as they lose everything.”Josh admitted he dropped the ball this time because he was in no hurry to crush the Hunts in one blow.“But don’t worry, boss! You’ll definitely be satisfied with the results.“John Hunt was fired by his company. The trending story was very popular back then, so John has a bad reputation in the industry. It’ll be very difficult for him to find a good job.”Zachary’s expression eased after he heard that John had completely lost his job.“You gotta thank Ms. Stone for this. Ms. Stone asked her brother to fire John. I have to say, Ms. Stone is especially nice to your wife.”Za

    Hunter could not fall asleep before receiving an update. He honestly did not like Caroline. He despised her from the bottom of his heart. Nevertheless, he still felt a hint of sadness when his sons were going to kill her. After all, she was his daughter with his blood running in her. “Carol…”Hunter murmured, “You should blame yourself. Your brothers couldn’t tolerate you anymore because you went overboard. You brought this upon yourself.“When everything’s over, I’ll place flowers on your and Belinda’s graves.“I hope you’re doing well in the afterlife. Just don’t come to me in my dreams too often.“I’m old and easily frightened. I might have a mental breakdown if you torture me in my dreams.”“What did you say, Mr. Clark?” Hunter’s housekeeper asked. Hunter immediately picked up his spoon. He replied, “I was sending my son a voice message. I wasn’t talking to you. You can go on with your work.”The housekeeper nodded.

    “Okay. You can go anywhere you want. I’ll always be with you.”Darren added, “No matter what you do or where you go in the future, Ms. Caroline, you can never send me away. You can’t do this again.“It’s too dangerous. Your life is at risk if something happens. It’s not worth doing this for the likes of those people.”The Clark brothers could have really killed Caroline. “This won’t happen again. It’ll just be this once. They’re not worth the risk. Let’s just consider this as paying off my debt of gratitude toward my mom for giving birth to me and for the love she had for me in the end.”Caroline added, “I broke all ties with my family last night.“Have you sent the money to my dad?“This will be a one-off payment. We probably won’t be in contact anymore.”After speaking, Caroline felt depressed. She truly did not have much luck when it came to family.“I’ve prepared the money. I’ll meet Mr. Clark a few days later after your injury gets better.”Darren wanted Caroline to f

    Although Jacob and Michael were older than her, Caroline fought back valiantly and threw anything she could reach at them. She even chased after them around town with a billhook before. Jacob and Michael were pale from fear. When Carmen tried to avenge her sons, Caroline did not hesitate to swing the billhook at her too. Her reckless resistance shocked the Dott family. From then onward, they no longer dared to hit her. Even so, Caroline had to live with them. Naturally, she was still abused. She could never eat and sleep well. She was not given nice clothes either. Marc Dott, who was responsible for changing her life, never stopped his family or defended her even once. Caroline despised her adoptive father the most. He ended up dying in prison due to an illness. Caroline knew Belinda had gotten someone to kill him. She did not pity Marc at all and even thought death was too light of a punishment for him. After Caroline returned to the Fisher family, Carmen and h

    “I want to touch your face, Darren.”Although Darren was still straight-faced and angry, he bent over so that his face was within her reach. “Look at you. Your face feels as hard as marble.“You shouldn’t let such a handsome face be so stiff. I don’t like seeing you with a straight face. I like it when you’re gentle.”Darren said unhappily, “I’m not a gentle person, Ms. Caroline.”He had received intense training at the center. How could he possibly have a warm personality after going through all that?He simply looked softer when he was in a good mood. Caroline probably found him gentle due to his handsome face and politeness. Despite his words, his expression softened. “Don’t be angry, Darren. I’m fine. I didn’t lose a leg or an arm. My head is still intact. I wasn’t chopped to pieces and fed to the fish.“I even calculated your speed and deliberately let them scratch my arm. I wouldn’t have given them the opportunity to injure me the second time.“It was also their fi

    It was possible that the caretakers of the Fisher family cemetery would not even allow her brothers to visit the graves.The Fisher family members harbored deep resentment toward Belinda.“Liberty, don’t worry. I’m not going to die. I don’t feel like I’ve lost out by doing this.”“Shush—enough with the talk about dying early in the morning. We’re all going to live long lives.”Caroline smiled again, “Alright, alright, we’ll all live long lives. Stop looking like the sky is falling. Seeing you like this makes me want to cry.”Liberty scolded her, “Don’t you cry. I’m just heartbroken, so heartbroken. Why didn’t you trust me?”“Liberty, it’s not that I don't trust you. It's that I don't trust my three brothers.”Liberty could not say anything to that.“Ms. Caroline, you must be hungry. I bought you a bowl of plain oats porridge. You have a cold, so you have to eat simple meals for the next few days.”Darren returned with a bowl of oats.He then said to Liberty and her husband, “

    Liberty had said that she would not bother with the Clark brothers as long as they kept a low profile or stayed away from the center of Jensburg, not provoking Liberty or trying to seize control of the Fisher family.However, Caroline did not believe her brothers would do nothing.If she did not put them away, they would do everything in their power to stop Liberty from taking over the Fisher family, and in the end, it would lead to the destruction of their family and leave them with absolutely nothing.However, this was a Pyrrhic victory for her.“She just wouldn’t listen and refused to let me get involved,” Liberty said as she sat by the bed, gently touching Caroline's still-swollen face with a heart full of concern.“Mr. Fletcher, you should use ice to help reduce the swelling on her face. It will help her recover faster.”Darren replied, “I’ve been applying ice to her face from time to time. Plus, even Madam Belinda couldn’t change Ms. Caroline’s mind once she made a decision

    Caroline had inherited Belinda’s ruthlessness, after all.“I’m heading to the hospital right away.”Hearing that Caroline had been rescued but was now in the emergency room, Liberty could not sleep any longer. She immediately threw off the covers and got out of bed.Duncan quickly followed suit.“Duncan, it’s still dark outside, and it’s cold. You should get some more sleep.” Liberty, out of consideration for her husband's limited mobility and his discomfort with the cold Jensburg spring, wanted Duncan to stay home and rest. She could go to the hospital alone.Duncan said as he changed his clothes, “No, I’ll go with you. I may not be able to walk long distances, but I can manage a short walk.“I’ll get the bodyguards to come with us to the hospital, so you don’t have to worry about taking care of me.”Although Caroline’s injuries were the result of her own plan, Duncan still did not feel comfortable letting Liberty go to the hospital alone.He was afraid something might happe

    Meanwhile, in the master bedroom in Fisher Manor, Liberty suddenly woke up after a two-hour sleep.She sat up abruptly. Her movement startled her husband beside her.“What’s wrong? Did you have a nightmare?” Duncan also sat up, turning on the bedroom light, and asked with concern.“I dreamed that Caroline was in trouble. She refused to let me follow her. Her plan was to just get injured, but I’m so afraid her life’s in danger.”Having spent so much time with Caroline, Liberty had come to admire this aunt of hers.If it were not for the grudges of the previous generation, she and Caroline could have become close friends.Even now, the two of them held mutual respect for each other.Among the Fisher family members, she only respected Caroline; even Hayden only respected Caroline.Hayden had even once considered matchmaking Caroline with Hugh. However, Hugh did not like Caroline, and Caroline had no feelings for Hugh either. Caroline admired Hayden, but Hayden was a woman.After

They enjoyed a life of indulgence, spending money like it was water, and were flattered and fawned over by others.Suddenly, they fell from the clouds to the cold, hard ground.No one flattered them anymore.
