Married at First Sight Chapter 1413
Since Mrs. Lewis came all the way and said such words, Duncan could not stay any longer.Serenity personally escorted Mrs. Lewis out of the ward.She stood at the door of the ward and watched Mrs. Lewis and Duncan walk away.After a long time, she sighed and turned back in with Zachary. She looked at her sleeping sister with worry.Zachary held her shoulder and comforted her in a low voice, “Seren, everything will be fine. We don’t have to worry too much.”As long as Duncan realized his feelings, Zachary believed that he could convince his parents to let him be together with Liberty.“Besides, your sister isn’t interested in Duncan in that way. Duncan liking your sister is his business, and there’s no guarantee that your sister will accept him. Let’s see how it goes for now.”Serenity leaned on his shoulder and said softly, “Putting aside Mr. Lewis’s status, he’s a good man. If my sister wants to remarry, I’m very much in favor of them getting together, not because of Mr. Lewis’

Mrs. Lewis felt like she was going to explode from anger.They were not together yet, but Duncan already wanted to be Sonny’s father.Was Hank dead?“Duncan, I’m telling you, I don’t accept Liberty. I won’t allow you to be with her! She’s divorced and has a child. You’re from completely different worlds. The right person for you is a strong and capable woman from an influential family; someone like Lily.“Putting aside the Lewis family, even if we just look at your own achievements, don’t you think that Liberty is still unworthy of you?“You’re the CEO of Lewis & Co., and she’s just the owner of a small breakfast diner. Even the store she rents belongs to you. You two are worlds apart. That’s not me looking down on her. It’s the truth. Duncan, both families have to be well-matched in social status in a marriage. You and Liberty are not suitable for each other.“You should give up on her and go out with Lily. Didn’t you have a great time chatting with her during the Marshall famil

Duncan did not care how adamant his mother was and said with a smile, “Mom, you should worry about whether your son can win over Liberty first.”Liberty suffered in her first marriage and no longer longed for love. She would not be easy to pursue.Mrs. Lewis said angrily, “Are you really going to pursue her?”“I didn’t know my feelings before, but when I found out that Liberty got injured, I was so afraid and heartbroken. Although I’m rough and not as attentive as Josh, I’m not stupid. I know that this is care—this is love!“I care about Liberty and like her! Since I like her, I have to pursue her. I can’t just secretly harbor feelings for her while waiting for her to take the initiative to marry me. That’s wishful thinking.”Mrs. Lewis slapped him and warned, “Duncan Lewis, I’m officially warning you now. You’re not allowed to pursue Liberty. Otherwise, don’t blame me for taking action.”“Love that has braved through storms will last longer. Mom, you can come at me if you’re dis

After returning to the Lewis residence, Mrs. Lewis did not want to wake her son up. However, she could not carry her son as she did when he was a child, so she had no choice but to wake him up.“Duncan, we’re home. Wake up.”Duncan only woke up after a few nudges from his mother.He was still a bit dazed when he opened his eyes. He looked at his mother for a while before coming to his senses and getting out of the car.Lily just came back from outside. The car she drove was lent to her by Mrs. Lewis.“Mrs. Lewis, Duncan,” Lily greeted as she got out of the car.The two of them got along well at the Marshall family’s banquet. She thought that was the beginning of her good relationship with Duncan, so she was friendlier with him.“Lily, where did you go?”Mrs. Lewis was full of smiles when facing Lily. She really liked Lily and wanted Lily to be her youngest daughter-in-law.Her best friend thought the same, and the two family’s elders were all looking forward to it.Mrs. Lewis

Lily looked at Mrs. Lewis.Mrs. Lewis asked the servants to carry all the things that Lily bought into the house while she took Lily for a walk around the yard.She sighed as she walked.“Tell me what’s on your mind, Mrs. Lewis. Maybe I can help. Don’t sigh. There are many people around you to support you.”Mrs. Lewis took Lily’s hand and looked at her, saying, “Lily, you’re a capable and understanding girl. You can take care of both your work and family at home, and you also dominate the business world. In my eyes, you’re the ideal daughter-in-law.“I really don’t know what’s wrong with Duncan’s eyes. How can he have feelings for Liberty? Our greatest worry came true. Liberty got injured, and he stayed in the hospital all night to watch over her. He only came back now to rest because I dragged him out.“On the way back, he also admitted that he cared about Liberty and liked her too. Lily, you have to fight harder. You’re superior to Liberty in every way, so you have to defeat he

The York family bodyguards blocked them from entering the ward.“We heard that Liberty woke up and came to see her,” Olivia said to the bodyguard with a smile.Serenity did not tell Hank that Liberty woke up.However, the kidnapping was too high-profile, and there were too many people involved. News about the incident instantly went viral, so everyone in Wiltspoon knew about it.Naturally, everyone also paid attention to Liberty’s injury.The media found out that her life was no longer in danger and she was released from the ICU.Countless people were moved by her maternal love and prayed for her, hoping that she would recover. The media reported her overcoming the critical period, which was how the Brown family found out.“As our missus said, Ms. Hunt still needs to recuperate. There shouldn’t be noise disturbing her. It’s enough that you know her life is no longer in danger. There’s no need to go in and disturb her.”The one who spoke was Jim.Chelsea said loudly, “We’re jus

“Serenity, this is a little gift from me. Keep it for your sister. When people visit someone at the hospital, it’s customary to bring a gift.” Chelsea brought up the social custom.She insisted that Liberty accept the gift card.Olivia also gave Liberty a gift card.Serenity refused, and in the end, the mother and daughter shoved the gift cards to Sonny and let him hold them. Then, they quickly ran away.Mr. Brown ran along with them, not letting Serenity return the gift cards.Only Hank stood there, watching Liberty awkwardly.Serenity wanted to let Hank take the gift cards away, but Sonny refused to let go. He clung tightly to the cards and said, “Grandmom and Aunt Chelsea gave these to me!”Serenity said gently, “Sonny, you have to return these gift cards to them. We don’t want their money.”“Grandmom and Aunt Chelsea gave them to me!”Sonny refused resolutely. His grandmother and aunt gave him gift cards in the past, but his mother would always exchange them for cash and p

“Thank you,” Camryn said to Serenity.“Serenity,” Callum greeted.Serenity hummed and helped Camryn sit down in a chair.Callum placed the fruit basket and bouquet on the bedside table and said warmly, “Liberty, these are from Ms. Newman. We wish you a speedy recovery.”Liberty thanked them.She did not know Camryn well, but she knew that her sister and Camryn got along with each other. Her sister told her that Camryn was the wife chosen for Callum by his grandmother. Judging by Callum’s attitude toward Camryn, he had accepted his grandmother’s arrangement.“Liberty.”Camryn faced Liberty.“I’m sorry.”She apologized.“Why are you apologizing to me, Ms. Newman?” Liberty’s voice was a little weak. After the anesthesia wore off, her wounds and the surgery incisions hurt so much that her face was pale. She could not even raise her voice to speak louder.Camryn said guiltily, “This all started because of me. In order to save me, Serenity lent me a hand, which was why my mother h

However, if there really was a good woman out there, meeting up and getting to know her would not be a bad idea.Liberty returned to the office and finally felt in the mood to work. After a while, as evening approached, she received a message from Duncan telling her he would arrive at her office in two minutes.Liberty tidied up and went downstairs to meet him. At the same time, she called her aunt to let her know not to wait for her to return for dinner, as she would be eating out. She also informed her aunt that Duncan was in town.When Audrey received the update, she laughed. “Duncan is so eager! Okay, I understand. You two enjoy your time together.”Duncan must have been missing her niece like crazy.As Liberty walked out of the office building, she spotted a car parked at the entrance. Duncan got out of the car and stood aside, waiting for the bodyguard to unload the suitcase and wheelchair from the vehicle. He was able to stand for a while now and should probably be ab

Liberty nodded. “How could they compare to Elisa? She has such a strong moral compass. Zachary was still unattached when she liked him but when he announced his marriage, even though Elisa was upset, she gave up on pursuing him. The other women are more like Ms. Daniels.”In truth, Liberty knew about Ms. Daniels. She believed that Serenity and Zachary could handle things on their own, so she kept silent, but even though they eventually resolved it, it also proved that despite Zachary being married, there would still be people who harbored inappropriate thoughts about him. They were hopeful about replacing Serenity all because they felt that her pedigree did not match Zachary’s.Liberty wanted to be her sister’s support, to provide her with a confidence boost. That was why when Audrey suggested she come to Jensburg to compete for the position of family head with Caroline, she did not refuse. If she took control of the Fisher family, she would be the head, and even if most of the

Liberty asked.“Yeah, I’m on my way out now. You know what—you don’t need to come pick us up. It’ll take over an hour by car for you. I’ll just take a taxi over.” That way, he would not have to wait too long at the airport.Liberty laughed. “I wasn’t planning to come pick you up anyway. If you had told me in advance, I would have come for sure. But since you didn’t say anything… “I could still come to pick you up, but you’d have to wait at the airport for a while so it makes more sense for you to take a taxi.”It would be easier for everyone that way.“I’m on my way back to the office now. Just come straight here and text me when you’re nearby. I’ll come out to get you.”Duncan chuckled in response. “Okay, we’ll take a taxi. I’ll text you when I get there. Where did you just now?”“I went to Fisher Enterprise to check on Caroline. She’s a good person.”Duncan pursed his lips and asked, “She doesn’t blame you guys, does she?”“Not at all. Based on what she says and does, it’s

Although they had the two hundred thousand dollars, it did not change the fact that Liberty was fifteen and Serenity was ten—they were still just children. Having been pampered by their parents and never having experienced hardship, after their sudden death and being tossed out into the street, Serenity often cried, saying that she missed their mom and dad. Whenever Liberty tried to comfort her sister, they would end up crying together in each other's arms instead.Liberty could understand Caroline's feelings, though she also accepted that Caroline was much luckier as she was of age, had a father and three older brothers, and no one could kick her out of her home. “Yeah, I’ll go out once in a while. Please thank Audrey for me and ask her to let me know when she’d like to come over so that I can hand over all my responsibilities related to the company and the family. I’ll work with her schedule. And…I don’t blame any of you for my mother’s death.”That was her mother’s own doing

They were aware of everything Caroline had done for the family. To be honest, Caroline had indirectly saved Liberty. If she had not warned Liberty, Liberty’s bodyguards alone would not have been able to protect her when Belinda sprung that surprise attack on her. Liberty had already had a good impression of Caroline, but after that incident, that impression only grew stronger.Caroline’s smile faded a bit as she said, “There’s no rush for Darren and me. At the earliest, it’ll be at the end of the year. It’s too chaotic right now.”Liberty nodded in understanding. “As long as you and Darren are on the same page, that’s enough.”“He’s a good man. We haven’t really gone out on dates, but we know how we feel about each other. He suggested we date first, get engaged, and finally register our marriage. “He wants to take it step by step and promises I’ll have everything I want.”“Aunt Audrey and I are very reassured about your relationship with Darren. He’s a man worth spending a

At the mention of Liberty’s wedding, Caroline congratulated her. “Have you decided to register your marriage with Mr. Lewis? Congratulations in advance! I wish you both a long life together and hope you have a precious daughter soon.”Liberty already had a son, so it seemed normal to wish for a child the second time around.However, when Liberty became the head of the Fishers in the future, Caroline understood that Liberty would need a daughter to take over from her.Liberty smiled. “It hasn’t been easy for Duncan and me to get to this point. Considering we’re not young anymore, we decided to just get it done. Thank you for your well-wishes, Caroline, but we’re not in a hurry when it comes to kids.” She did not have the energy to raise a child at the moment. Whether she took over the Fisher family or not, she was too busy right now. Even though her new company seemed to be doing well, it had not truly stabilized yet and was only temporarily so through the influence of her brot

There were very few people left of Patrick’s generation. After a moment of silence, Caroline said, “Yes, he’s just returned to his hometown, so he should stay for a while longer. “Liberty, please tell my cousin to just give me a few days. I’ll clear the mansion out for you to move in. What I said before still stands!” Liberty elegantly sipped her coffee and did not respond immediately. Half a cup later, she set it down and looked at Caroline, who was also looking back at her.The two of them held each other's gaze for a full two minutes before Liberty averted her eyes and said calmly, “There’s no need to rush. Let’s discuss it after Christmas. My aunt hasn’t laid out a concrete schedule yet.”Caroline also set her coffee cup down. “It still needs to be cleared out and cleaned. It’s fine if you don’t move in immediately; letting it be for a bit will help disperse my mother’s lingering presence, so you won’t feel uncomfortable.” Fisher Manor did not belong to the head of th

Caroline did not care what her father and brothers thought of her. She could hazard a guess— they were most certainly not happy with her. With that in mind, she had Darren drive her back to the office. Just as she returned to her office and poured herself a cup of water, her secretary called her on the intercom to say that Liberty had arrived.“Let her in,” Caroline said. She had not expected Liberty to come looking for her so quickly but did not think the visit was to ask her to vacate her position. Perhaps it was to check on her. A few minutes later, the secretary led Liberty in.“You can go ahead with your work,” Caroline said as she dismissed her secretary. Once the secretary left, Caroline and Liberty exchanged glances before Caroline awkwardly said, “Liberty, I don’t know how to face all of you.” “Well, I’m not here to kill you, so there’s no need to be nervous,” Liberty replied as she walked over to sit on the sofa.“Killing me would only dirty your hands,” Caro

Not to mention the antiques. If they sold it all off, even at a conservative estimate, it could fetch them several billion dollars. That did not even include the jewelry Belinda had accumulated. Women, even the iron ladies, loved jewelry. Belinda was no exception. Many of her jewels were passed down through generations of the Fisher family, making them more valuable than the ones on the market today.Adrian’s eyes sparkled greedily but darkened just as quickly. “Dad, no one but Caroline is allowed inside the manor now.”“What? Who decided on that?” Hunter asked, alarmed.“Audrey Fisher left people to guard it. She’s even arranged for her people to take over and all the employees have been replaced, including the housekeeper.” Hunter was momentarily stunned before he spluttered, “What right does she have to do that?” Adrian was silent. Audrey was a Fisher and the eldest daughter of the previous family head, who should have inherited the title but was prevented from doing so
