However, it usually did not take long before the toys would be snatched from each other, and the twins would start fighting. Connor always lost to Chloe and would end up crying loudly. In the end, this would attract the attention of the adults.Occasionally, when Connor could not win against his sister, he would tackle her. The siblings could sit up now, but the moment they got even a bit unruly, they would topple over. Connor’s tactic of tackling always succeeded in knocking his sister down.Then, he would bite his sister. The two little ones, who had yet to grow teeth, would bite each other. Whether it hurt or not was something only they knew, but no matter if it was knocking his sister down or biting each other, it would always end with Connor crying loudly.When Chloe woke up and saw her mother still beside her, she would insist on staying with her mother. The little girl was quite clever. Although she was not particularly prone to crying, it did not mean she would not cry. When
Jane was worried that Serenity might not be accustomed to things here, so she hurried out when she saw Serenity walking in the yard, leaving behind her still-asleep husband and son. When the father and son woke up and could not see her, Connor would end up crying and waking up the whole family. There was no need for an alarm clock. Connor’s crying was enough to pull everyone out of their dreams every morning.During the day, it was mainly the nanny and Old Mrs. Johnson who took care of the children. Jane and her husband were busy with company matters and could only spend time with the children in the mornings and evenings. However, every day when Connor woke up and did not see his mother, he would cry for a long time before calming down.Ben often complained that his son was too clingy to Jane as if he was competing with him for her attention, which amused Jane. She never complained about how he treated their daughter like a precious gem. If that was the case, then their daughter was
“I’m scared. I’m scared they might get hurt or something bad might happen. I hate that I can’t help right now. All I can do is take good care of Sonny so that my sister doesn’t have any worries.”She and Duncan felt the same way. They were worried but were unable to help. Duncan was even too afraid to casually call Liberty, fearing that he might disturb her.Jane reached out and held Serenity’s hand to comfort her. “It’ll be fine. No matter how big the pit, we’ll cross over it and see the rainbow on the other side.”Serenity pressed her lips together, nodding vigorously, and clasped Jane’s hand in return. Right then, a familiar sound of crying reached their ears, along with Ben’s voice soothing his son.“Please stop crying, we’re looking for Mommy right now. You just cry and cry every time you open your eyes and don’t see Mommy. A real man doesn’t cry. Look at your sister—she doesn’t cry like you when she wakes up.”Ben’s tone was full of disdain at his son’s crying, just as Dr. C
“I can’t feed him. Even if I prepare the formula, he only takes it if you hold him. If I feed him, it’s like I’ve added poison to the milk. He just won’t eat.” Ben complained about his son’s favoritism. Even though he prepared the milk formula, Connor would only eat if Jane was the one feeding him. If Jane was not home, it was easier because as long as he was hungry, he would eat no matter who fed him. The little guy might cry a lot, but he was also quite clever.“I’ll feed him later. You take Chloe back and let her sleep. It’s a bit chilly outside.”Connor was already dressed in a warm outfit, and Jane checked his clothing to make sure he would not be cold. Ben walked away, holding their sleeping daughter and occasionally bending down to kiss her little face.Serenity watched him leave with Chloe and said to Jane with a chuckle, “It’s really Ben who shows favoritism. He’s so impatient with Connor but dotes on Chloe.”“He’s been doting on and pampering her so much.”Jane managed
Serenity laughed and said, “That’s how children are. At this age, they’re curious about everything. If you change into a brighter outfit, their eyes will be fixed on you. Taking care of kids can be quite tiring, but when they cling to you and sweetly call you ‘Mommy,’ you’ll be over the moon.”Jane held her son close to her as he was trying to climb the table again. “That’s true. After a long day, coming home and holding the two little ones melts my heart. It makes all the exhaustion seem worth it.”She bent down to kiss her son’s little face. Connor smiled at her, then turned around to hug her neck, and even rubbed his face against hers. Seeing the mother-son’s interaction, Serenity felt quite envious.“Seren, you don’t need to envy me. In a few months, when your baby is born, you’ll be just as happy.”“My only concern is that it’ll be a little troublemaker.”Jane laughed. “There aren’t many kids who aren’t mischievous these days. Zachary’s mature and calm, so I’d guess his kid w
Sonny called out to Serenity. Laurence also greeted Serenity before he and Sonny sat around Jane, watching Connor drink his milk. Sonny played with his little feet, and when Connor kicked, Sonny giggled. Connor did not have much strength, so being kicked did not hurt.After feeding the two little ones, Jane handed them to the nanny. The nanny placed the twins in their stroller and pushed them out for a walk, so they would not cry when Ben and Jane left the house later.Jane and Serenity planned to take the boys to the children’s park without the twins. The twins were too young, and with so many people at the park, they were worried they would not be able to take care of the twins properly.It was lively at FC Manor, while Wildridge Manor was still quiet. The Yorks did not have any young children yet. The youngest was Rowan, who had not officially started his winter vacation. He would only get a break closer to Christmas to prepare for his college entrance exams, which made him quite
Truth be told, Sugar was also a treasured darling in her own home. At her master’s place, her seniors treated her exceptionally well. No one had ever given her the cold shoulder. Dylan was the only one who always wore a stern face whenever he saw her, as if she owed him a fortune.Sugar knew very well that Dylan was polite and gentle in front of the elders, but gave her a hard time behind their backs because he thought Grandma May wanted to matchmake them. She was not about to kiss up to him either. Did he think he was money, something that everyone liked? Even if she had once liked him, she forced herself to let go after he said those things, yet, they could not avoid interacting with each other.The employee was taken aback. Did Ms. Sugar dislike Mr. Dylan? Did Mr. Dylan bully her?“Ms. Sugar, has Mr. Dylan bullied you?” asked the employee out of concern, guessing that Sugar had been bullied by the young master after hearing her remarks.Sugar quickly said, “No, he wouldn’t dare
Whether ordered from the menu or enjoyed as part of the buffet, the food was delicious and guests would leave extremely satisfied. No wonder the hotels under York Corporation were so popular; many people came just to dine, not necessarily to stay.Plus, guests staying at the hotel received a 30% discount on meals. On the first floor, there was a coffee shop, a specialty store featuring products from Wiltspoon, a children’s playground, and a reading area. The reading area had several large bookshelves filled with various books, so even on rainy days, one would not feel bored spending the whole day at the hotel.The employee smiled.“Alright, I’ll go find Camryn. You go ahead and do what you need to do.” Sugar smiled and walked away and the employee went about her tasks as well.Sugar took her time enjoying the scenery and spent forty minutes just strolling to the main house. Although it was Camryn who invited her, Grandma May was also around, and she had to greet Grandma May out of
