Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 2688

The Newman couple was strict with Trenton and trained him to be independent at a young age because they wanted him to succeed them.

How could a successor take over the family if they could not stand their ground and be independent?

However, they kept it subtle because Trenton was still young then. Now that he had grown up and Carrie kept stirring trouble after getting out of prison, their parents agreed to transfer all their assets to him to protect them.

Trenton also promised to ensure Carrie’s life essentials were covered. He would stop giving her allowance once she could earn money to sustain herself. However, if she were to get married, he would give her a large sum of money and luxurious presents to send her off.

He also made it clear that Camryn would not take anything—she only wanted justice.

“Mom and Dad won’t agree to this. They wouldn’t. You should stop dreaming.”

Carrie knew her parents had already agreed to the plan. She was simply in denial.

She refused to believe that her parents did not choose her, the child they loved most, and picked Trenton instead.

Was it because Trenton was a boy?

It turned out that her parents’ love for her could not transcend gender inequality.

They must have never thought of handing the family assets to her.

Carrie could not accept the truth.

Her parents had mentioned that they did not prefer boys over girls.
