Chapter 1566
“Dunc.”
Sonny pulled the kite string and walked toward Duncan.
Duncan smiled and pulled Sonny into his arms. He reached out to hold the kite string for Sonny and asked, “Are you
happy?”
“Yeah. Row said he’d bring me to play in the children’s playground later,”
This was Sonny’s second time in Wildridge Manor. He remembered that his uncle’s house had a big children’s
playground and that it was fun.
Duncan said dotingly, “I can also bring you there.”
“Dunc, you’re an adult, but Row isn’t one yet. I’ll be happier if he goes with me.”
Adults were not as playful as children.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe little one knew the difference very well.
Duncan caressed Sonny’s head and asked with a smile, “Sonny, you don’t want me anymore now that you have
Row, huh?”
Sonny complained, “You only know how to stack blocks, Dunc.”
Duncan was speechless.
He liked Sonny, but he admitted that he was not doing a good enough job at pleasing Sonny, mainly because he had
never liked a child like this before he knew Sonny.
“Sonny, come here. Let’s see whose kite flies higher,” Rowan shouted after his kite took off.
Sonny immediately pulled his kite and ran toward Rowan.
Duncan grinned and watched.
He was thinking about expanding the villa he always lived in and building a children’s playground so that Sonny
could play in it in the future.
When Zachary and Serenity saw this, they did not walk over to disturb them from flying kites. The couple strolled
hand in hand along a wooded path.
No one would be insensible enough to disturb the loving couple..
“Zachary.”
Zachary turned to look at Serenity.
Serenity continued, “Nana told me about my duties. I thought there were just a few stores, but I was shocked when
I saw the accounts. The few bookshelves are full of account books. Do all women in your family manage these?”
Zachary chuckled and answered, “Not really. Only the head missus manages these. These are public and belong to
the entire family. Some belong to our small family. I’ll slowly tell you about our small family’s businesses when
you’re more familiarized with everything.”
Serenity responded, “I thought you were in charge of everything that makes money…”
“I’m in charge of the big businesses while you’re in charge of the small ones.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSerenity was speechless. “There are so many books of accounts, yet you say they’re small businesses?”
“They’re small businesses as compared to what York Corporation deals with. If the shops are self- operated, only a
few hundred thousand dollars will be earned in a year. At most, it’ll be more than at million dollars. Those that
aren’t self–operated are rented out. The monthly rents are about 8,000 to 10,000 dollars, amounting to roughly
100,000 dollars a year.
“Chain stores earn a little more, but they’re not worth mentioning as compared to York Corporation. These small
businesses are given to you to manage. The income will mainly be used for internal expenses, so treat it as your
allowance as my wife.”
Simply the allowance was shocking.”
Although the money earned from each store in a year was not much to Zachary, the Yorks had many stores. In
Serenity’s words, there were many account books on the few large bookshelves, which meant. that there was a lot
of money.
The rent collected each month alone was money that could never be earned by ordinary people in a lifetime.
