Chapter 3734 – Before boarding the ne, Zachary messaged his wife, Serenity, letting her know he was flying to Annenburg. Serenity was nning to return from her visit to Murphy''s house.
Meanwhile, Liberty took Duncan to visit Donald at Queen''s house. Since Duncan was now part of the family, it was important to pay a visit.
In Wiltspoon
With school on winter break, Jasmine returned to the bookstore because staying at home was too dull. Even though business was slow, the store was open, and she enjoyed chatting with the neighbors. Some had closed up shop for the New Year, while others, with family in Wiltspoon, didn''t feel the need to leave town.
Jasmine, now over a month more pregnant than Serenity, was in good health, and her pregnancy hadn''t slowed her down much. Her husband, Josh, was extremely attentive, allowing her to go out whenever she wanted, as long as bodyguards apanied her. Even Josh''s cousin, who was also her pregnancy nutritionist, no longer objected.
After reading a novel for a while, Jasmine put the book down, got up, and walked around the shop to tidy up the shelves. She knew sitting too long would make her drowsy, and the baby would start kicking if she stayed still. Moving around seemed to settle the baby down, and his kicks became gentler. They say a baby''s temperament begins to form in the womb.
A car soon pulled up in front of the bookstore. Hearing the sound, Jasmine moved to the cashier and saw Carrie, a woman who once imed her husband''sst name was Labbe, getting out of the car.
Jasmine thought to herself, Why is she here again? Perhaps Carrie was there to buy study materials for her brother-inw likest time.
Standing behind the counter,
Jasmine waited for Carrie to enterContentt bel0ngs to N0ve/lDra/ma.O(r)g!
the shop. The Bucham family''s bodyguards eyed Carrie cautiousty as she stepped out of the car, apanied by two of her own bodyguards who waited at the door.
"Mrs. Labbe, back to buy study materials for your brother-inw?" Jasmine asked with a polite smile.
Carrie smiled back. "Yes, he asked me to pick up some study guides and test
questions. He''s already finished his schoolwork and wants to practice more over the break."
She mentioned the specific materials, and Jasmine fetched the books for her. After collecting them, Carrie casually asked, "By the way, I haven''t seen Mrs. York aroundtely. Where''s she been?"
“Are you looking for Serenity? Do you need something from her?" Jasmine raised an eyebrow, curious.
Carrie already knew that Serenity
had taken Sonny to the Johnson''s home in Annenburg-Mr. Labbe had told her. He had alsoined that Carrie hadn''t managed to be close friends with Serenity. If she had, Serenity could have introduced her to the eldest mistress of the Johnson family and perhaps invited her to FC Manor, where she could meet the child Mr. Labbe had been trying so hard to connect with.
Mr. Labbe''s real aim was the Jun family''s child who was a close
friend of Serenity''s nephew, Sonny, When Carrie had asked Mr. Labbe why he couldn''t just visit the
Johnson family directly ret
the
child was so important, he evaded her questions, insisting on using roundabout ways to aplish his goal.
It had indeed been a long,plicated journey for them.
