You don\u2019t have to worry about costs for your parents and in-laws, social favors, or raising your children. You\u2019re quite lucky, Mr. Charles.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cManaging finances is not easy.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>As he munched, Mr. Charles said, \u201cI agree, which is why I left the financial matters to my wife; she excels at it. I used to handle our finances, but despite our business doing well, our savings never exceeded twenty thousand dollars by the year\u2019s end. Since my wife took over, we\u2019ve saved nearly a hundred thousand dollars each year.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cI\u2019m relieved to have that burden lifted and to see our family account grow. My wife is very fair; she treats both sides equally, giving my parents and her parents the same amount. My parents couldn\u2019t be happier with their daughter-in-law.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cSerenity, I can tell you right now that if I have a disagreement with my wife, my family will be all over me.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Although Mr. Charles sounded somewhat mournful, he was actually boasting about his happy home. They may not possess great material wealth, but Mrs. Charles is considerate and adept at maintaining harmony at home.<\/div>\n<div>While Mrs. Charles could be sharp-tongued, she was genuinely kind beneath her tough exterior.<\/div>\n<div>Serenity admired the way Mrs. Charles navigated life and relationships and wanted to learn from her.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cHoney! Honey!\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Mrs. Charles was calling him from next door.<\/div>\n<div>Mr. Charles responded to his wife\u2019s calls before whispering to Serenity, \u201cKeep this between us, okay? I have to go.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Serenity smiled in acknowledgment.<\/div>\n<div>Mr. Charles turned and walked away, answering his wife\u2019s calls. <\/div>\n<p>Once he left, Serenity finished her dinner and took her empty plate to the kitchen. After washing the dishes, she stepped outside for a brief chat with her neighbors. Having lived next door to the other store owners for years, she valued a bit of social interaction.<\/p>\n<p>The neighbors assumed that Serenity would distance herself from them now that she was married to the wealthiest heir. They never considered that she remained the same friendly person, just a bit busier than before.<\/p>\n<p>Serenity enjoyed catching up with her neighbors before returning to her shop to work on her crafts. A few women had expressed interest in learning her crafting skills, so all she needed to do was prepare the materials for them, as they already had the necessary tools.<\/p>\n<p>She also took the time to check her orders, stock, and fulfillment status.<\/p>\n<p>These women were housewives relying on their husbands\u2019 single incomes, and Serenity was happy to pay them daily as long as the orders and quality checks were completed. Their pay would depend on the number of orders they fulfilled, reflecting the effort they put in.<\/p>\n<p>The extra income would help alleviate these women\u2019s financial burdens.<\/p>\n<p>By ten o\u2019clock that night, Serenity closed the shop due to a lack of business. She was eager to go home and await her husband\u2019s return.<\/p>\n<p>A few minutes later, Serenity drove away from Wiltspoon School.<\/p>\n<p>Meanwhile, Carrie received a call from a thug who informed her, \u201cMs. Jones, the woman you asked us to watch is closing up. She\u2019s heading home now.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cKeep an eye on her and follow her to an area without surveillance before you stop her car. I want you to beat her up and seriously damage her vehicle. Make sure to wear masks and sunglasses; she must not see your faces.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019ll wire you the rest of the payment once the job is complete. You can take the money and lay low.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>for a while. She planned to return to Wiltspoon once everything had settled down.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Mr. Charles replied, \u201cThat\u2019s true\u2026 It\u2019s fortunate I didn\u2019t mention it to my wife.\u201d \u201cMrs. Charles doesn\u2019t give you much [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-13065","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-married-at-first-sight"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13065","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=13065"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/13065\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=13065"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=13065"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=13065"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
