Married at First Sight Chapter 1200
Old Mr. Hunt had spread rumors that Scott was not their biological son in their hometown. When he felt like he had made up enough rumors, he came looking for Serenity eagerly the next day. “What are you guys doing here?”Mrs. Brown looked like she saw an enemy when she spotted Old Mr. Hunt. She still remembered that he had collected tens of thousands of dollars from her but did not do his job. She went to get her money back, but he refused to own up. It infuriated her a lot. Upon seeing Old Mr. Hunt bringing his son and grandchildren with him, Mrs. Brown glared at him with a cold face. “You’re trying to ruin Serenity’s reputation again, right? You old fart.”Mrs. Brown had heard about the Hunts causing commotion before. She told her husband in private before that the Hunts were utterly brazen. They took away a considerable portion of the insurance payout over ten years ago and even chased Liberty and Serenity out, which resulted in them not being able to return home. They did n

“See? The old woman in your family is facing retribution now. She’s sick, right? You don’t have to seek treatment for her. She’ll die anyway even if she gets treated. She can meet her maker earlier and apologize to your son and daughter-in-law.”Mrs. Brown and Chelsea were sharp-tongued. Their scolding had Old Mr. Hunt jump to beat people up. Mr. Brown and Hank stepped forward and stopped him from moving. Old Mr. Hunt pointed his finger at Mrs. Brown and scolded, “It’s none of your business. Who do you think you are? It’s none of your concern. You, a Brown, have nothing to do with the Hunt family’s matter.“A married daughter is like splashed water. The sisters were the ones who shamelessly came back to fight for property. Do you divide and give any property to your daughter? You leave them all to your son as well. Look at you talking.”Chelsea said loudly, “I got married to a capable husband. I have a house, a car, and savings. I gave up my inheritance to my younger brother. I

Chelsea walked outside and went to John’s car. She aimed her knife and punctured all four tires. Once done, she brought the knife back into the store, washed it clean, and placed it back in its original position. Before she left, she even said to Serenity, “I punctured his car tires. If he wants compensation, tell them they can find me as much as they want.“We won’t be disturbing your business, Serenity. We’ll be heading home now.”The Browns left very quickly. Elisa only released Sonny after silence returned to the bookstore. However, she realized he had fallen asleep in her embrace. She found it funny and said to Serenity, “Sonny actually fell asleep.”Serenity carried her nephew, placed him on the small bed, and covered him with a blanket. “I never had a good feeling about the Browns, but I feel like they finally did something good.” Elisa had watched the scene and was pleased with it. Jasmine said with a smile, “This is called evil people being tamed by the same kind.

A ringtone was heard. It was Serenity’s phone. Her instincts told her that it was her husband’s call. When she took her phone out, it was really Zachary who was calling. “My husband’s calling me,” Serenity told her two best friends. Jasmine was tactful and walked away to take a novel she had not finished from a bookshelf. Elisa laughed and said, “I should be going back too. If there are no problems with the contract, I’ll have someone sign the contract with the mayor. Our project can commence afterward.”She took her bag as she spoke and left after speaking. Serenity smiled and proceeded to answer Zachary’s call. “Honey.”Zachary’s voice was warm and alluring. He was captivating his wife with his voice on purpose. Serenity could not stand him doing it. She could not help shuddering. She laughed and said, “Just say what you want to, Zachary. You don’t have to seduce me.”Zachary was speechless. “Why are you laughing? I heard your laughter when you answered my call

“Mm. They came to thank me. My granddad brought my uncles and cousins over too. The two families quarreled. Chelsea and Mrs. Brown chased my granddad and the others out with the broom. The tires of John’s car were punctured too. Chelsea did it.”Zachary laughed upon hearing that. “The Brown family has finally done a satisfying thing.”Serenity giggled. “My granddad and the others probably came to tell me that my dad wasn’t their biological son. They want us to give up on inheriting the property. If we don’t, they’ll likely negotiate with us. Getting my parents’ property back without fighting a lawsuit is the best-case scenario.”If Old Mr. Hunt really wanted to negotiate, Serenity would be willing to do it too. However, there was no way she would give up on her inheritance. “Me and Granddad’s DNA test results will be out within these two days. I’ll see how they can continue making this up after I get the results.”“It’ll be ready by tomorrow. I’ll go and get the results with

“Mm, he said there’s a lunch appointment in the afternoon.”Tania said nonchalantly, “Tell him you won’t be going then. We haven’t eaten outside or gone shopping together before. Zack won’t fight me on this.”People have been spreading rumors that she had had a bad relationship with Serenity. They said Serenity had always attended banquets with Mrs. Stone but was rarely seen returning to the manor to accompany her mother-in-law; neither had they eaten together in public or gone shopping. Tania wanted to ignore the rumors. She was aware of the status of her relationship with Serenity. However, she was asked about it by her friends whenever she went to play cards with them. She felt annoyed. Tania gave up on playing cards and looked for her daughter-in-law immediately. She wanted to take her daughter-in-law and splurge at luxury brand boutiques. She would dispel the rumors with concrete actions. That was the reason for Tania’s sudden visit. “Okay.”Serenity was about to call

Serenity hung up the phone after saying a few words to Zachary.Not two minutes later, she received a notification that money was transferred to her bank account.Zachary changed the phone number bound to the household bank card to hers. He was worried she would feel uncomfortable if he received a notification every time she spent money.He told her to let her use the money at will, but...Zachary was very considerate with regard to that.After the phone number linked to the account was changed to Serenity’s, she became much more comfortable when spending money.Zachary transferred a sum of money to the account and told Serenity to spend as much as she wanted while shopping with her mother-in-law.Liberty arrived a few minutes later.Only when her nephew was handed over to her sister did Serenity accompany her mother-in-law to lunch.Then, the mother-in-law and daughter-in-law spent time together until the evening.Tania was the wife of the current head of the York family.

Meanwhile, when Serenity saw the entertainment news article, she was silent for a long time before saying to her friend, “Now that my status is different, every little thing can make it to the entertainment section of the news.”It was her first time making the news after becoming the missus of the York family.Jasmine was used to seeing gossip like that and laughed. “Your husband is the biggest name in Wiltspoon’s business world. You barely interact with your mother-in-law, and you’ve recently attended various parties with your aunt, so it’s natural they started to misunderstand.“A lady called your mother-in-law before to say that you were meddlesome, and she told your mother-in-law to discipline you. You heard about that, right? Those people just wanted to see your mother-in-law treating you badly because they were jealous you were able to marry into a top-class family like the Yorks.“I heard from Josh that Grandma May and your mother-in-law have the most say in the York family

Married at First Sight Chapter 4148
Knowledge of Mr. Longbottom’s philandering was not restricted to Havenmill. Even people in Annenburg knew about it. He switched lovers as quickly as he changed clothes. Many of his mistresses accidentally got pregnant and thought they could replace Mrs. Longbottom because of their children. However, Mr. Longbottom was a heartless man outside of bed. While most of his mistresses had gotten pregnant, only those who were honest and without ambitions were allowed to give birth. Even if those women gave birth, the child would not bear the Longbottom surname and only take their mother’s surname. However, Mr. Longbottom would buy that mistress and her children a townhouse and hire two nannies to look after them. There would also be a sum of money deposited into their account monthly to provide for the child. On the other hand, most of Mr. Longbottom’s mistresses who were not allowed to give birth were ordered to get an abortion. If they refused, Mrs. Longbottom would intervene and f

Tati did not care what Manny would do. She had no feelings for him. Not only did she know he was ambitious, but he also wanted her family’s wealth. Only a few men deserved Tati’s praise in her entire life. Austin was one of them. Even so, she simply admired him and did not view him as a romantic partner. Tati could sense that Austin’s eyes were always on Isabella. It had nothing to do with him being her private chef. He was dedicated to Isabella. When Isabella and Tati were unaware of Austin’s true identity, they admired him a lot. Isabella even teased Tati about it. Later, they discovered he was a young master of the wealthiest family in Wiltspoon.His family background and qualifications made Austin worthy of being the partner of an elite daughter of the O’Connors. Although Isabella refused to admit it, Tati knew Austin would eventually be her brother-in-law. However, he probably had to sacrifice a lot to be with Isabella. After all, Isabella was the head of the

Once Manny left, Costa Corporation entrance resumed its peace. Manny had bought a villa in Satbury. He was determined to woo Tati and would not leave until he succeeded. Besides, he would be doing business in Satbury and needed a place to live. He did not want to stay at a hotel every day. The villa he bought was only a ten-minute drive away from Dunboy Manor. On his way back, he received a call from his momma asking about his situation in Satbury. After speaking about business, his momma said, “Don’t be like your dad, Manny. If you really like Ms. Tati, you should treat her well.“Your dad is too flirty. Marrying him was the unluckiest thing in my life. I had no choice. I’ve been his wife for decades and even gave birth to you all. He got me involved in too many things.“He forced me to be in the same boat as him. I’m forced to stick with him for your sake and our family’s benefit. However, if I could turn back time, I’d rather stay single than get married to your dad.“Y

“I’m sorry. I have a business appointment tonight.”Tati rejected Manny’s invitation without hesitation. Manny had been pursuing her relentlessly. If she were to have a meal with him, the paparazzi stalking them would take pictures and she would be on the local entertainment headlines the next day. She would not give Manny any chances to advertise false information about their relationship. Manny looked disappointed. “Another day then.“By the way, you’ll be attending a banquet two days later, right? Can I be your escort?”Tati and Isabella would not attend just any banquet. Families who could invite them were wealthy and close to the O’Connors. Ordinary banquets could never have Tati and Isabella as guests. Manny had gathered information for two days. He heard that one of the wealthy families in Satbury would be holding a banquet to celebrate their old missus’s eightieth birthday, and many guests were invited to liven up the celebration. A missus of that family was clos

“My family isn’t inferior to yours, sweet Tati. The Longbottoms even surpass the O’Connors. As a young master of the Longbottoms, why will I go after your family’s money?“Money has never been a problem for the Longbottom family. In fact, you and I are the best match for each other. Our families are equally rich. If we get together, it’ll be a joining of two strong forces.”Tati wanted to say that while the Longbottom family surpassed the O’Connors, Manny was not the true person in power within his family. Even his father was not the legitimate head. The power and wealth of the Longbottom family belonged to the true head of the family. Tony and Manny Longbottom were simply managing the family in the interim. Did they think the family had become theirs?If the son of the previous Longbottom family head grew up and returned to take charge of the family, Tony and Manny would no longer have any influence. They would only receive some compensation for their hard work. Without the L

Tati looked toward Manny and said in a serious tone, “If you love someone, you’d be considerate of her and do what’s best for her.“Meanwhile, you’re disregarding any inconvenience this might cause me just to appear romantic. You know I’m busy, yet you put flowers here and blocked my way, wasting my time.“Do your actions truly reflect your love for me? Are you being considerate of me?”Tati would not have said a word if Manny had asked his people to place the flowers in an empty spot. However, he just had to do it at the entrance of the company, attracting many people. Her company security team could not even chase them away. They knew Manny’s identity and that he was pursuing her. If the security chased him away, the Longbottom and O’Connor families could end up enemies. Secondly, they were worried about getting fired if Tati were to accept Manny’s feelings one day and decide to punish them. Tati would not blame the security for failing to execute their duty. After Manny s

“It’s okay if you don’t want my bouquets. Can you feel my sincere love for you through these letters?“I fell in love with you at first sight, and I fell even harder the second time I saw you.”Manny’s gaze was affectionate as if he truly loved Tati. To be honest, Tati was outstanding in various aspects. She was good enough for him, a young master of the Longbottoms. They were also close in age and definitely had common topics to talk about. However, Tati refused to give him a chance and rejected his confession. That did not matter. After all, it had not been long since he started pursuing Tati. As the O’Connors had more daughters than sons, he could understand that their daughters would be especially cautious regarding romantic relationships. They did not want men dating them solely for the O’Connor family’s money. Although that had been Manny’s initial intention, he was satisfied with Tati after meeting her in person. He was willing to marry her. Besides, Tati was com

Meanwhile, in Satbury, Tati returned to the company but was forced to stop her car at the entrance. Some people were decorating the entrance with flowers. Security tried to chase them away, but they did not even budge. The security guards seemed wary of something and did not force those people to leave. A few cars were parked nearby, including a truck that still carried fresh flowers.Tati did not honk. There were people and flowers on the road before her and honking was useless anyway, or she could simply drive past without a care. She got out of the car to have a look. “Sweet Tati.”An unfamiliar voice rang. Tati looked toward the person who called her and frowned. She recognized that person. He was Manny Longbottom, the eldest son of the interim head of the family.Mr. Longbottom had come over several times for business negotiations. However, it was not yet his scheduled timing. Even if he were the Longbottom family’s interim head, there would be no special treatmen

First, Adrian poured himself a glass of water. He then sat down at his desk, pulled out his phone, and made a call to Jacob while sipping his water.When the call connected, he spoke in a low voice, “We’re going ahead with the plan. Caroline will be heading to Fortress Hotel later to meet with a client. After the meeting, she’ll have dinner there.“The discussion and dinner will take a long time. By the time she leaves the hotel, it’ll already be nighttime. She probably won’t go anywhere else after that.“Wait for her on the route she usually takes home. Her license plate is CA 201. Got it?”Adrian made sure Jacob remembered Caroline’s license plate number. He had also sent the information via text, so unless the person had an exceptionally bad memory, they should be able to recall it.Jacob replied, “Got it. We’ll have to start preparing, then. Try to get Caroline to drink some alcohol. If she’s drunk, it’ll be easier to handle her.”After all, they could not guarantee that the
