Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 2720

“Your mom is getting older, busy with work, and her thoughts are all wrapped up in the company and fostering Caroline. She hasn’t paid attention to me. Although I’m also getting older, my health is fine, and I still have some needs. She doesn’t fulfill her duties as a wife and doesn’t even let me have a quickie.”

Hunter, perhaps due to the alcohol or frustration with his wife, vented all his dissatisfaction to his daughter.

Seeing her father’s painful and angry state, Celine involuntarily sat down to drink and kept him company.

She still sympathized with her father.

Downstairs, the banquet was lively, but her father had to hide upstairs, unwilling to face people; just because he made the mistakes many men do.

The guests downstairs were also uncomfortable, mainly due to the addition of three esteemed guests.

They could not grasp why Belinda organized this banquet. The atmosphere lacked liveliness.

“Liberty, what kind of business are you planning to invest in?” Belinda asked, seemingly concerned.

Deep down, however, she intended to thwart Liberty’s business no matter what it was to ensure Liberty would not gain a foothold in Jensburg or become wealthy here.

She absolutely could not let Liberty be someone of wealth in Jensburg.

Belinda was aware of what her family thought of her. They might use Liberty against her, possibly even genuinely supporting her.

“I’m not sure yet. I need to explore. Business these days is tough. You have to survey the market before making decisions.”

Liberty was not entirely truthful, but it left Belinda speechless.

She replied, “Yes, it’s true. Businesses nowadays are incredibly tough. Even Fisher Enterprise’s business is declining. Not just us, I presume Queen Enterprise might also be facing some decline.”
