Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 5389

Tony furrowed his brows. “Carden is a medicine expert. Don’t tell me she taught Laurence everything she knew. I heard that she had an apprentice, but we couldn’t find out who it was.”

“Why didn’t you say so, Pops?”

Manny added, “I would’ve taken better precautions had I known.”

“I didn’t think it was relevant. Jane didn’t admit that Laurence was the son she had adopted. Those ladies came fully prepared. It’s likely that Jane has been lying.”

Tony did not believe a word Jane said. He was convinced that Jane had not been telling the truth.

Jane was likely Laurence’s adoptive mother. As for the talk about sending Laurence away, it was probably to some kind of training camp where he learned combat and medicine. She had played them all for fools.

“If Laurence is Carden’s apprentice, everything makes sense. I see why Laurence and his men went to pick the ladies up at the airport, not caring if we found out.

“He was practically flaunting it in our faces today. We put a tail on him, only for him to beat our people up and dump them at our door. The man is getting too arrogant for his own good.”

Manny was seething with rage. He was dying to tear Laurence to pieces.

Before Laurence came along, Manny had the people of Havenmill groveling at his feet.

With Laurence in the picture, he stole the limelight from him. It was not just the public; even the extended family of the Longbottoms whispered how brilliant Laurence was.

According to them, if Laurence were the child from three decades ago, they hoped he would come back and take over the family. Surely, Laurence would lead the Longbottoms to success since there were many elites in the family.
