Chapter 18

Author: Gu Lingfei
“I wasn’t at the shop tonight. My friend wanted to attend a dinner party and asked me to tag along. Oh, right. Mr. York, I want to ask you about something, but I’m not sure if it’s something you’re comfortable answering.”

Taking the seat opposite Zachary, Serenity stared at the man with her big bright eyes. The man was aloof, distant, and nasty toward her. She knew he built a wall around him to keep nobody out but her.

However, he was blessed with good looks. His face was aesthetically pleas

  • Married at First Sight   Chapter 5420

    The fact that Laurence could summon the whole family to be under one roof in a short amount of time sent a shiver down Susan’s spine. She suspected that Laurence had been in touch with the family members. Laurence, a Longbottom, was the CEO of Longtail group, and the company had established itself in Havenmill for a few years now. If Laurence knew about his history, he must have started planning the moment he set foot in the city. Well, that would not surprise Susan as much. However, terror gripped her as Laurence might have been interacting with the family members right under her nose. “We are back in Havenmill. It will take us half an hour to reach home. The traffic is horrible, with some parts of the road in a gridlock.” Tony added, “That’s a norm in the city. You know that. Don’t panic. Keep your composure. We knew he was coming. So long as he provides the heirlooms, he will be the head of the family. “So what if he proves to be a Longbottom? Shouldn’t he take a DNA test?

    Tony said, “I never brought it up. I wouldn’t want to put family at risk.” He had a deeper bond with Susan’s offspring. Susan had built the empire alongside him and had been his biggest supporter. Susan’s family had provided a lot of resources as well. It was true that Tony had cheated on her more than a handful of times, but he had never neglected Susan. His connections, resources, and assets practically belonged to Susan’s children. It was his way of compensating Susan for turning a blind eye. That was what Susan had proposed back then. So long as Tony gave everything he had to her children, she could not care less about the lovers he had. Her only wish was that these mistresses would not carry a son for him. Since Tony already had a son, he did not need another son to take care of the family. He was allowed to have daughters out of wedlock. Most of the Longbottom girls did not have access to the family’s core businesses. Their assignment was to marry well and provide f

    There was hatred in Roxy’s eyes. “I want to drive a wedge between Laurence and Noelle. The misunderstanding will drive them apart.” She hated Noelle the most. Noelle was uncompromisingly strict and highly skilled in combat. The point was, she had Laurence’s deepest trust and respect. The way Laurence looked at Noelle was something else. Roxy dared to say that Laurence was in love with Noelle. Noelle’s heart belonged to Laurence, too. “Grandpa, we can use Noelle. She’s loyal to Laurence, but she’s just a girl. She loves Laurence. Once Laurence produces the family heirlooms and takes over the family, his social standing will rise, but within the family, he will be bound by tradition. “Noelle is unfit to be Mrs. Longbottom. Can Laurence change the family law for her? With the senior family members around, they won’t let him get his way. Noelle is a good pawn to tear Laurence down.” Tony said, “I know, but that won’t work since they trust each other. They are too smart to get t

    Tony said, “Louis is out of the question. Isabella practically raised him. It won’t be easy for you to wrap him around your finger.” Back then, Tony tried to set Manny up with Tati and did not bother to consider Isabella because the latter was a force to be reckoned with. Surely, Louis, growing up under Isabella’s guidance, would refuse to be tamed. “Who else is better, Grandpa? I have feelings for Louis. Laurence was just my mission, but it’s a different story with Louis.” Roxy honestly fancied Louis. It was love at first sight. Of course, Louis’s standing was the most attractive trait. He was a worthy match for her. Since Roxy was the granddaughter of the Longbottoms’ acting family head, she had every right to become the lady of the O’Connor household. Laurence was good-looking, but in terms of family hierarchy, he was technically her distant uncle. The family did not have proof that Laurence was a Longbottom before, but Manny assigned her to get close to him and find evi

    Suspicion ran high, particularly among those in Tony's age group.No Havenmill elites in their right mind would welcome Roxy into the family through marriage. Now that Laurence was back, his focus was definitely on revenge. Once Laurence avenged his family, Tony and his people would not get away with murder. In other words, Roxy and her future in-laws would suffer as well, so no one could consider Roxy as marriage potential carelessly. Sitting inside the vehicle, Tony grimaced. Along with him was Roxy. She glanced at Tony several times before offering him comfort. “Grandpa, there’s always a way out. With one door closing, I’m sure a window will open for us.“We’ve already suspected that Laurence was a Longbottom. After the many encounters we had with him, we know what he’s made of. It’s not a guaranteed loss if we face him in the future. “Plus, we have been in leadership for three decades. So what if he’s the last family head’s son? The position is not all sunshine and rose

    “Laurence, I’m your uncle. I even carried you in my arms when you were but a baby.”Tony asked anxiously, “We haven’t seen each other in thirty years, and I have lots and lots I want to talk to you about. Are you not willing to even have a meal together?”In terms of seniority, he was Laurence’s second cousin once removed.Tony and the previous family head were second cousins, and his grandfather and Laurence’s great-grandfather were half-siblings with different mothers. It was just that Laurence’s great-grandfather had been born to the first wife, and had been raised as the heir since young, while Tony’s grandfather had been born to the second wife, and thus had no chance at the family head’s seat, so he became a branch family.Despite being born to the same father, because of the difference in status, his descendants also lost their chance at the head of the family position and grew distant from the center of power.That was why Tony was so unwilling to accept defeat. While his

    “The old ledgers have been copied to new books so it’s easier for reference.”Tania explained and pointed to the computer on the desk while saying to Serenity, “There are too many ledgers to look through, so there’s also a copy on the computer. It’s much easier and faster to look it up on the compute
