Married at First Sight Chapter 1670
Serenity did not say a word. Among the people around her, only Jasmine’s relationship was smooth sailing without a hitch. Josh and Jasmine tied the knot very quickly. Elisa’s love and her sister’s second chance at love had many obstacles. Serenity was considered lucky. Although she and Zachary had conflicts, silent treatments, and even almost got divorced, they understood, respected, and trusted each other in the end. They had been living a blissful life since then. Serenity cherished everything she had at the moment. Zachary regulated his emotions quickly. He said softly, “Sleep, honey. Don’t overthink. Let’s go with the flow.”Serenity hummed in agreement. They slept in each other’s embrace soundly throughout the night. Duncan woke up the next afternoon. He slept long enough that he did not have a bad headache but just hunger after waking up. When he realized it was already noon, he got up immediately and showered. After changing into clean clothes, he went downsta

It was not Mrs. Lewis who had rear-ended the car in front of hers, but Duncan who hit a lorry from behind. Although the vehicle behind Duncan slammed on the brakes, it still rear-ended Duncan’s car. Mrs. Lewis was not involved in the collision as she stepped on the brakes in time. After parking her car, Mrs. Lewis immediately unfastened her seat belt and opened the door to get out. Mr. Lewis had not registered what transpired. He had been trying to persuade his wife to stop chasing after their son. “Honey.”“Duncan’s car rear-ended another vehicle.”Mrs. Lewis dropped the bomb on her husband and ran forward. She passed the sedan in front of her. That car collided with Duncan’s car, and its bumper was damaged. The person in the car was motionless, probably due to shock. The condition of Duncan’s car was far worse. Almost the entire hood of his car was buried under the lorry due to the collision, and only the trunk was left visible from the outside. Duncan was hurt and unco

Duncan would go looking for Liberty every day at her apartment. Zachary calculated the time and thought Duncan would wake up at noon, look for Liberty, and realize she had moved. In the end, the news Zachary received was that Duncan had gotten into a car accident. “Where did the accident happen? Was he the one who crashed into someone or the other way round? How’s his condition?”When Zachary received Josh’s call, he was on his way to Wiltspoon School to have lunch with his beloved wife.Jasmine could not be at the bookstore that day. Josh was afraid that she was worn out because she had been operating the bookshop all evening yesterday. To be honest, she was not tired at all. However, since the doting husband insisted she was exhausted, then exhausted she was.He did not let Jasmine head out that day. Jasmine, who was already treated like a national treasure at the Buchams’ house, had no choice but to listen and stay home. She would occasionally be on video calls with her fri

After some hesitation, Zachary told Serenity the truth.“Seren, I’m not going over anymore. If the food has been delivered, you can dig in first. I… I’m at the hospital. Duncan met with an accident.”Upon hearing the news, Serenity’s expression changed. She quickly asked, “How did it happen? Did it occur when you two were together? Did you both drink and drive again?”Zachary explained, “No. We didn’t drink today. That was yesterday. All of us didn’t drive. I still don’t know what happened. I came to the hospital right after Josh informed me. Duncan’s still in the emergency room. They say his legs were injured the worst, and it’s uncertain whether they can be saved.”Toward the end, his tone turned heavy, and his speech slowed. He sounded sad. “I’m done with my work now. I’ll head to the hospital after closing the store.”Zachary did not stop his wife from coming over. He reminded her, “Drive slowly.”“I’ll have a bodyguard drive. Don’t worry. Mr. Lewis is a good person. He’ll

“I’ll bring him with me.”Liberty could not find anyone to babysit Sonny at that moment. Therefore, she was taking Sonny to the hospital with her. She hung up, carried her son, and started walking. As she walked, she told her son, “Sonny, we must go to the hospital now. Dunc got into an accident. We’re going to visit him.”“How’s Dunc? Nothing will happen to him, right?”Upon hearing that Duncan had gotten into a car accident, Sonny imagined lots and lots of blood. His small face turned pale instantly. Liberty’s bloody figure back when she was stabbed traumatized Sonny. He would feel dizzy when he saw lots of blood. “Dunc will be fine.”Liberty reassured her son and herself. Sonny hugged her neck tightly. He hoped Dunc would be okay and not bleed so much as Mom did. In the hospital, the number of people waiting outside the emergency room grew. When Serenity and Liberty arrived, Zachary’s bodyguards brought some food as instructed. He asked everyone to eat something fi

Mrs. Lewis’s body swayed. Two of her daughters-in-law quickly supported her. “Mom.”They exclaimed worriedly. “Duncan out of the woods is a good start. He’ll recover eventually.”Mrs. Lewis hit her chest out of remorse. She said guiltily, “It’s my fault. I caused his misfortune. Why wasn’t I the one who got into an accident? I’d rather it be me in the accident.”If Duncan became disabled…Mrs. Lewis did not dare to think about what would come after. “Mom, Duncan will get better. The doctor said he can recover.”Emmett consoled his mother. Mr. Lewis’s expression was grim. He told his sons and daughters-in-law, “Take your mother to rest. I’ll watch over Duncan.”“I’m not leaving. I won’t leave. I want to wait for Duncan to come out and take care of him.”Mrs. Lewis refused to leave. Her son’s operation had ended, but he was not out of the emergency room yet. She was worried. He had gotten into such an unfortunate accident because she had been extreme as a mother. How c

Josh was considerate not to smoke because his wife was pregnant.“What happened, Mr. Lewis? Why did Mrs. Lewis say that it was her fault for what happened to Duncan?” Zachary asked in a low voice.Josh also looked at Mr. Lewis, waiting for him to tell them the truth.“Sigh… It’s our fault. Duncan went out drinking yesterday. After you sent him home, Duncan didn’t answer Corey’s call, so she called the housekeeper only to find out that Duncan was drunk. This morning, Corey insisted on going to his house, so I went with her.“Duncan only woke up at noon. He saw us at his place and quarreled with Corey again shortly after. Duncan didn’t want to get into a row with his mother, so he got up and left.”Derek recalled the scene at that time. If he knew that it would cause Duncan’s accident, he would have dragged Corey back with every ounce of his strength.As Duncan’s father, he felt he did not do well in persuading Corey to be more open-minded, which caused the conflict between the mot

Zachary supported Duncan after finding out about his feelings for Liberty. However, Liberty was not interested in remarrying anyone, and she did not have any romantic feelings for Duncan. In addition, Mrs. Lewis was strongly against Liberty and Duncan together, so Zachary wanted to persuade Duncan to give up.He felt that even if Liberty agreed to be with Duncan, they would not be happy in the future because of Mrs. Lewis’s objection.Duncan was Zachary’s best friend, and Liberty was his sister-in-law, which put Zachary in a tough position. If he persuaded Duncan to give up, Duncan would think that he was not a good friend. On the other hand, if he persuaded Liberty to accept Duncan, he would feel like he was pushing his sister-in-law into a fire pit.Zachary felt that his relationship with Serenity was not as difficult as Liberty and Duncan’s.Duncan discovered his feelings for Liberty when she was injured. Liberty fully recovered after around three months. This was the duration t

Austin replied, “Both Mr. Louis and Mr. Phillip woke up very early, especially Mr. Phillip. He gets up earlier than Mr. Louis every morning. It’s really hard on him, getting up so early in such cold weather.”Sometimes, he himself felt like staying in bed a little longer, reluctant to leave the warm comfort of his blankets.Even after the New Year, Satbury remained quite cold. In contrast, over in Wiltspoon, the temperatures had begun to reach a high of over seventy degrees Fahrenheit in the daytime, with nighttime lows around fifty degrees.The two provinces and cities were simply incomparable. The temperatures in Wiltspoon were just so very comfortable for Satbury locals.Isabella smiled and said, “Phillip is just afraid he’ll get here too late and that you’ll assume he’s not coming over for breakfast, then not prepare any for him. He's such a little foodie.”The house was never short of snacks for the little ones. In fact, any goodies were always reserved for them first.Yet,

Even when she attended banquets, she would show up in formal clothing. Isabella did not remember the last time she wore a dress. Perhaps it was when she was in third grade. In fact, she liked wearing pretty princessy dresses when she was young. Her mother had told her that.As Isabella was the first child and extremely adorable, Delphine had dolled her up like a princess. Her pretty dresses filled the closet. Her parents, aunts, uncles, and relatives would always gift her many beautiful dresses. As she grew up, perhaps when she was in fourth grade, she stopped wearing dresses. Regardless of who gave her new pieces, she would refuse to wear them and give them to her cousins instead. After everyone realized she disliked dresses, they gradually stopped giving her them. Delphine had asked Isabella why she disliked wearing dresses. Isabella reasoned that she could not walk quickly enough while wearing one. She valued speed and efficiency. Delphine said she had alway

While the private chefs Ms. Isabella had hired in the past were respectful, they were leaning toward flattery instead of sincere dedication, like how Austin was toward Ms. Isabella.Dominic was experienced. He could sense that Ms. Isabella treated Austin differently. She was also a special existence to Austin. It was normal for young people to be attracted to each other. Initially, Dominic wanted to advise Austin not to even think about dating Ms. Isabella. However, upon discovering that Austin was a young master of a wealthy family, he decided not to interfere. Dominic was glad that he did nothing.Austin returned to the house. Instead of heading straight to the kitchen, he went upstairs. He stopped outside of Isabella’s room and knocked on the door lightly. No response came from within the room. Perhaps Austin was too soft when he knocked. He knocked on the door again with more force and asked, “Are you up yet, Ms. Isabella? It’s time to have breakfast.”Isabella w

Austin was extremely patient with the boys. Although they occasionally caused trouble, most of them were minor issues. They would never do something they were not allowed to do.After breakfast, Austin brought them their bags. With a boy in each hand, he left the house. It was to prevent the boys from saying he was playing favorites. Dominic was used to that scene. Initially, Austin was simply Ms. Isabella’s private chef. However, he gradually took on more responsibilities.He would take the two young masters to school. If he had time in the evening, he would also fetch them from school. Austin also made sure Louis and Phillip did their homework, supervised their hobby classes, and played with them. Sometimes, he would even teach them martial arts and train with them. Dominic felt Austin was an all-rounder. It seemed like there was nothing Austin could not do. No wonder Ms. Isabella thought highly of Austin. However, Austin was a young master of a wealthy family. He w

Louis and Phillip were downstairs having the breakfast Austin had prepared for them. The food was different every morning, and everything was delicious.Having gotten used to Austin’s cooking, Louis and Phillip could no longer stand the food provided in the school. They thought the food there was terrible. Louis was enrolled in an elementary school not far from home. As he was a first grader, he did not need to stay in the dormitories and could have his lunch and dinner at home. Phillip, who was a year younger than him, was still in preschool. He would have breakfast and dinner at home. Actually, the preschool did provide breakfast, but Phillip refused to eat in school and insisted on having breakfast at home. In order to eat the breakfast Austin made, he would get up early in the morning without the adults waking him. After putting on his clothes and washing up, he would head to Louis’s place with his bag. “Austin.”Louis suddenly asked, “Did my sister come back last n

Isabella had always thought Tati was teasing her. Therefore, she did not take her words seriously. She thought it was completely normal for Austin to treat her well as she was his boss. From Austin’s perspective, she was his source of income. Now that Isabella pondered about it deeper, she realized perhaps Austin did come to Satbury for her. It was not just to be her chef. He always said Grandma May only gave the York lads a year to pursue their fiancées. However, Austin had never left since he started working for Isabella. Even if he did, it was to accompany her on business trips. He was busy feeding and taking care of her every day and had never gone to pursue his so-called fiancée. He did not even try to gather information on her. Was he not anxious?A year would go by pretty quickly. Although it felt like it had not been long since Austin started working for Isabella, three months had passed. Time really flew. Three months had gone by in the blink of an eye. Neve

When Austin reached the door, he stopped and turned to say, “Ms. Isabella, I only care about my future wife. Other young women are simply strangers to me.“I’m polite to other women when I need to be. If they’re unimportant, I’ll ignore them. Even if that woman is my boss, I won’t cross any lines. If I do, there must be a reason behind it.“Get some rest, Ms. Isabella. You might have a headache when you wake up tomorrow. I’ll prepare a warm honey drink for you in the morning.”After speaking, Austin left. Isabella turned to look at where he last stood. What did his words mean?He said he only cared about his future wife.Aside from this lady, he would not step out of line with any other young woman, even if she were his boss. What did he mean by crossing lines?Was it showing concern? Did he mean that if his boss was a young woman but not his fiancée, he would simply do what was required of him without any personal feelings involved? Was that what he meant?If so, was

Isabella was cold sometimes, but that was not her true personality. She was a reasonable person. Austin was not worried that he would be mistreated as a live-in son-in-law. “Ms. Isabella.”Isabella looked toward him and waited for him to speak. He asked, “This may be abrupt, but may I ask what your ideal type is?”Isabella was stunned. Why did the question come to her? What was the type of man she liked?‘Someone like Austin,’ she thought. After a moment of silence, she said, “I like men who are capable, responsible, and have correct values. Even if his family isn’t as financially well-off as mine, I don’t mind so long as he’s honest, competent, and sincere about his feelings for me.“Of course, it’ll be great if we have the same social status. That way, we’ll have similar perspectives and more common topics. If we get married, we’ll be joining forces instead of it being a one-way financial aid.”“Although you can accept someone who isn’t from a similar family backgrou

After a moment of silence, Isabella said, “It’s okay. I know I was forcing it.”There was no point in asking Austin if he did not want to reveal anything. If he wanted to tell her, he would do so without her asking. However, her curiosity spiked with his silence. She was eager to know who his fiancée was. He was already so protective of his fiancée even though he had not met her before. It made Isabella jealous. It was her first time feeling that kind of emotion throughout her life. Although it was not a strong feeling, she still felt it. “You weren’t forcing me to tell you. You were simply curious. Most people have a curious side. It’s only natural for you to be inquisitive as well.”Austin said gently, “It’s not just you. Those who knew that my nana had chosen fiancées for my brothers and me were also curious about who the ladies were.“To be honest, we didn’t even know Nana had been choosing fiancées for us since a few years ago until she handed their pictures to us
