Chapter 1720

Penulis: Gu Lingfei
“Jim, what did you see just now?” Zachary, who was silent, suddenly asked.

Jim answered without hesitation, “I saw Ms. Daniels stroke your palm.”

With that, he became conscious of what he had just said. He quickly changed his answer. “No, no, boss. I didn’t see anything. Really, I saw nothing.”

Considering Zachary’s brilliance, he could easily win young women’s hearts. In order to avoid trouble, he had been bringing along bodyguards whose main job was to stop young women from approaching him.

They did not expect this accident to happen tonight.

From the way Ms. Daniels looked at Zachary, she had an ulterior purpose.

“From now onward, all young women, except my family, must keep a distance of ten feet from me.”

Zachary felt the need to behave like he did back then whereby he made all young women, except his family members, stay ten feet away from him.

He thought that everyone was aware of his marriage with Serenity, so no one would have an interest in him.

He was wrong.

    “Sam, I didn’t hear or see anything. I’m going to take a rest now.”Ultimately, Jim dared not tell Sam that a client’s daughter was interested in Zachary and flirted with him. Jim ran like the wind.“B*stard.”After scolding Jim, Sam turned his eyes to the chauffeur.The chauffeur said with a yawn, “Sam, I really didn’t see anything. I didn’t hear what Mr. Zachary said as well. I was focusing on my drive.“Sam, it’s getting late. You should go and rest. Good night.”With that, the chauffeur strode away.Other bodyguards did not have the slightest idea what was going on. Jim was the one who was in the same car as Zachary. If Jim did not reveal it, no one would know.Feeling helpless, Sam went back to the house.Zachary did not stay on the ground floor. He had gone upstairs.Once he arrived at the study, he gently knocked on the door.Perhaps Serenity was so absorbed in her work that she did not notice what was happening outside. She was unaware that Zachary had returned. When

    It was not related to work.Again, Serenity asked Zachary with her pretty eyes glowing, “What’s it then? Tell me. We’re a couple. We shouldn’t hide anything from each other. As you said, you’ll never hide anything from me no matter what it is.”“Honey.”Zachary said in a low voice, “Someone flirted with me.”Serenity was speechless.Her eyes widened, and her mouth agape.Did she mishear him?Someone actually dared to flirt with Zachary?When he was outside, he always looked sulky, signaling others not to approach him. There were bodyguards who followed him around to stop strangers from approaching him.How was it possible that someone flirted with him?Unless that was a man.With such a thought, Serenity asked, “Was it a man? Was it a gay who showed interest in you?”She felt that he would only allow people of his gender to approach him, which explained why that person had the opportunity to flirt with him.After being quiet for a moment, he replied in a deep tone, “It was

    Toward the end of her sentence, Serenity’s smile faded. She said, “Hank and Jessica’s case is a good example. Of course, Jessica isn’t to blame completely. Much of the blame rests with Hank.”Karma had hit Jessica now.However, it had yet to hit Hank.Zachary showed a pathetic look and said, “Honey, I don’t care. I belong to you. You need to protect me. Don’t allow anyone to take advantage of me.”“Alright, I’ll protect you. I’ll keep you company at any social function you attend. I’ll announce my ownership of you to everyone. Zachary fully belongs to Serenity. If anyone has the audacity to snatch my man, I’ll beat them up.”“Honey, why do you sound as though you’re comforting a child?”“How should I say it then?”Zachary stopped speaking.Serenity kissed him on the cheek. After that, she hugged him with her upper body lying on his chest. With a soft voice, she said, “Babe, don’t be angry. I’ll walk the talk. I’ll keep you company at every social function to prevent others from

    At least, this was Serenity’s innermost feeling.It was better than all other poetic phrases that she copied from elsewhere.There was a message at the back of the paper.He turned it over.[I’m jogging outside. Let’s have breakfast together later.]Zachary folded the letter joyfully and put it back into the envelope. After that, he slid open the drawer and placed the love letter inside.He got up and walked toward the window. Once he pulled open the thick and heavy curtains, the sunlight shone in.The morning sun in summer was dazzling. Once the hot summer was over, the cool fall would come, which was also time for Zachary and Serenity’s wedding.Zachary was more eager for the arrival of the baby that belonged to him and Serenity.The psychic told the couple decidedly that their baby would come in the fall. No matter how much the two of them loved each other, the baby would not come until it was fall season.Ben from FC & Co. now had a son and a daughter, which made Zachar

    Without much hesitation, Serenity answered, “Okay. Liberty goes to the hospital to look after Mr. Lewis whenever she’s free. Mrs. Lewis was the one who begged her to do so.”Zachary was not surprised. Considering Duncan’s current condition, Mrs. Lewis deeply regretted her actions. She would not even mind kneeling down to beg Liberty as long as Duncan could recover.“Is Duncan willing to meet Liberty?” Zachary asked concernedly.“I didn’t ask Liberty. But she’s insistent on looking after Duncan. She must have a way to get into the ward.”She would sneak in, by hook or by crook. Sure enough, Serenity and Liberty were sisters. Serenity knew her sister very well.Zachary replied, “I hope Duncan doesn’t overthink things and gets well soon.”Comparing Duncan’s previous and current states, Zachary could identify with Duncan. If it were Zachary, he would have difficulty regaining confidence as well.“He’ll recover.”Serenity said to him, “Let’s jog two more rounds. After Sonny wakes

    Sonny blinked, but he did not know how to express his discomfort. “He’s usually very loud, but he’s groggy today. He must be unwell. Bring the thermometer over and measure his temperature, Seren.”Serenity had already brought the thermometer without Zachary telling her and took Sonny’s temperature. A few minutes later, Zachary took the thermometer from Sonny’s armpit and handed it to Serenity. She held it up to look at it. She said, “100.9 degrees Fahrenheit. He has a fever. His temperature didn’t feel hot when I touched his forehead, but the number on the thermometer is so high. I’ll head upstairs to change my clothes. Let’s bring him to the hospital now.“I’ll call his instructor to request a leave of absence too.”Serenity took out her phone and called the self-defense instructor from the gym to request a day off on Sonny’s behalf as she spoke. Zachary said, “Don’t panic. Let’s try lowering his temperature first, then call the family doctor to check on him.”“That works

  • Married at First Sight   Chapter 1727

    The family doctor said, “Missus, I’ll prescribe some medication for the child just in case. If his temperature can be lowered through physical means, he doesn’t have to take any medicine first. If his temperature can’t go down to normal and the fever persists above 101.3 degrees, feed him some medicine. I’ll come over again tomorrow.”“Don’t we have to give him medicine now?” Serenity asked. Zachary said, “Let’s avoid feeding him medicine if his condition doesn’t require it. Every medicine has some side effects.”If one kept taking medication or getting an IV drip for minor issues, it would be troublesome in the future once there was drug resistance. Serenity knew to avoid taking medicine as much as possible, but she and her sister always panicked and were extremely nervous whenever Sonny was unwell. They desperately wanted the child to get well immediately. Therefore, the first thing they did every time was to bring him to the doctor, put him on an IV drip, and take medicine.

    Duncan looked at the insulated lunch box. He could not reach it after she moved it to the edge because of his injured legs. He was that useless. Everyone had been encouraging him to focus on recuperating. The doctor said the chances of recovery were high, but it was not a hundred percent. Who knew if he could make full recovery?If he could not, then he would merely be like just now, a person who could not even sweep a lunch box to the floor. It was as if the lunch box had a mouth and was laughing at him. He could not stand the sight of the lunch box, yet he could not get rid of it. Duncan was about to fly into a rage when Liberty’s phone rang. He saw her picking up the phone and heard her say, “Seren.” He knew it was a call from Serenity.Liberty did not pay attention to Duncan while she was on the phone call. Only then did he dare to remove his icy mask of disguise and drink the sight of her with his eyes greedily. He was desperate to be with the person he liked for twent

    “You can drink it now. It’ll turn cold if left aside for longer.”Isabella took the ginger ale and drank it with elegance. She put it down after drinking half of it. “I’m drunk, but only slightly. I can walk, and my brain is still alert. I know what I’m doing and saying.“I’ve had enough ginger ale.”She did not want to consume too much liquid late at night. “Which family is your fiancée from, Austin? Where is she? Do you mind telling me?”Isabella was insistent on getting answers. Austin had never told her when she had asked him about it before. He kept saying he would focus on working and that he was not in a rush to get married. After all, he was only in his twenties; Zachary only got married at thirty years old. If he was unsuccessful in wooing his fiancée that year, he did not mind waiting for a few more years. Isabella suddenly felt jealous of Austin’s fiancée, having had his heart without even doing anything. She wondered what Austin’s fiancée had done to cat

    Austin stared into Isabella’s eyes. He could detect some feelings in her gaze, but it was not obvious enough. What she felt for him was still mostly admiration. It was not the right time for him to confess yet. He would continue to wait. “You’re the best and most outstanding lady in my heart, Ms. Isabella. I admire you more.”Austin added gently, “You give off a strict and cold aura sometimes, but you’re always a nice person in my eyes.”Isabella had treated him well ever since he became her private chef. It only got better after she discovered he was a young master of the Yorks. Austin believed her when she said she viewed him as a friend because her actions reflected it as well. However, he was not content with being just friends. He wanted to be her husband. He wanted her to trust him and love him forever. He would also reciprocate her feelings and trust. Isabella smiled. “Even my parents are scared and avoid me when I’m in a serious mode. Louis and Phillip w

    Austin responded, “Don’t worry, Ms. Edith. I’ll take good care of Ms. Isabella.”Edith had come in a hurry and left just as quickly. The hidden meaning in her cousin’s words was not lost on Isabella, but she did not comment on it.She allowed Austin to accompany her into the house. The lights were still on inside, but the first floor was empty. Everyone else had already gone to bed.Since Isabella had not returned yet, the housekeeper had left the lights on for her.The house was warm, so once inside, Isabella took off Austin’s coat and handed it back to him.Austin accepted the coat and followed her to the sofa. After she had sat down, he asked gently, “Ms. Isabella, would you like some ginger ale for a hangover remedy?”Isabella rubbed her temples and said, “Yes, please. I don’t want to wake up with a splitting headache tomorrow.”Austin immediately went to prepare it for her.Isabella leaned back on the sofa and closed her eyes to rest. After some time, she heard Austin’s

    Isabella’s bodyguard had only called out to her, not daring to touch her, so she had not woken up. However, when Austin gently patted her face and called her, she woke up almost immediately. When she opened her eyes and saw Austin’s handsome face, Isabella was momentarily dazed, thinking she was dreaming about him.She had actually dreamed about Austin. Had she developed feelings for him? If she had not, why would she dream about him? In all her life, this was the first time she had dreamed about a man. Isabella wanted to touch Austin’s face, but as she raised her hand, she realized she was not dreaming.Austin was real. She could smell the fresh scent on him because they were so close.He had showered.Isabella quietly lowered her hand, hoping Austin had not noticed her earlier intention, lest he misunderstood.“Ms. Isabella,” Austin’s warm and pleasant voice reached her ears, making her want to close her eyes and go back to sleep. With him around, she felt safe and secure.

    Hunter had neither money nor power. What could he possibly use to save his sons?“Dad, go home. When the trial starts, we’ll send someone to pick you up so you can attend and observe.”Hunter stood up angrily and stormed off.After he left, Ellie asked Ava, “Are we really not going to do anything? My child is still young. Having a father in prison will always be a stain on their life.”“What can we do? Even if we wanted to save them, we don’t have the means. We know what Caroline is like. She’s not going to let this go lightly this time,” Ava replied. “Anyway, think about last year, when they were caught cheating. How did they treat us then?”Remembering the events from last year, Ellie said, “Let them serve a few years in prison, then. Ava, Caroline is in the hospital. Should we go visit her?”“We should. Let’s go tomorrow. We’ll call Emma and visit Caroline together. The Fisher family is full of terrible people, but Caroline still has some conscience. She’s always been kind t

    Hunter was momentarily speechless. He did not have much money. When Belinda was alive, he never had more than five hundred dollars on him. After his children grew up, he secretly asked them for money. During that time, he had money to spend freely, living a lavish life outside.However, all that money had been spent. He had no savings, mainly because he was used to spending extravagantly.He had been unable to save money. He did not own any shops or properties either; Belinda had kept him on a tight leash.The house in their hometown had been built with Belinda’s money, but it was not under his name. It was under his three sons’ names.After Belinda’s death, his sons supported him. Each son gave him over a hundred thousand dollars a month for living expenses.Combined, that was several hundred thousand dollars a month, allowing him to live comfortably in Ashford. He had managed to save a little, but not much, just over a million dollars in total. Hiring the best lawyers for h

    Despite this, lying in bed and enduring the pain, Caroline could not help but start to cry, feeling deeply wronged.When Darren came in and saw her crying, he walked over, sat on the edge of the bed, and gently wiped her tears with a tissue.“They’re not worth your tears,” he said, his heart aching for her.Caroline sat up and buried herself in his arms. “Darren, you’re all I have now.”Darren held her tightly, his voice filled with tenderness. “I’ll always be by your side, no matter what happens, Ms. Caroline. Even if the sky falls, I’ll hold it up for you.“If you’re really hurting and need to cry, then cry. Let it all out.”It would also help her sever ties with the past and the family bonds that had caused her so much pain.Caroline did cry—a long, cathartic cry. It would be the last time. From now on, she and the Clarks would go their separate ways.Meanwhile, Hunter went to Justin’s house and called Jason’s wife, Ellie, over. He said to his two daughters-in-law, “By no

    After a moment of silence, Hunter repeated the same line. “But you didn’t die, did you? You only got a little hurt, and it’s not even serious.”Caroline almost laughed in anger at this.Sure, she had not died. She had only been injured. Did that erase the fact that her brothers had tried to kill her, though?She retorted, “Dad, if I had tried to kill your three sons, but they didn’t die and only got a little hurt, would you say the same thing to them? Would you tell them it’s just a family dispute, ask them to forgive me, not to sue me, and not to send me to jail?”Hunter instinctively replied, "If you had the intent to kill, how could I let you continue down that path? Of course, I’d have to let you serve a few years in prison…“Carol, I’m old, really old. I only have the boys to rely on in my old age. Are you trying to leave me with no one to depend on in my later years?”Caroline said coldly, “I’ll provide for your living expenses. I’ll make sure you don’t starve. You can even

    Darren did not let go even after being struck.Seeing Darren get hit, Caroline’s expression darkened. She coldly said to her father, “Dad, if you really want to kneel, go kneel at the hospital entrance and shout at the top of your lungs that your daughter is unfilial.“Tell everyone that your sons tried to kill your daughter, and your daughter refuses to forgive them, so you’re kneeling there to force her to forgive your sons.“Let’s see if I give in.”Hunter stopped struggling. After slapping Darren, he felt a pang of fear. He was afraid Caroline might retaliate by slapping him to avenge Darren. Fortunately, while Caroline was furious, she did not lay a hand on him.He began to cry. “Carol…” He wept bitterly.Darren released him, and Hunter sat on the sofa, sobbing, “Carol, I’m old. I have no income, my parents are long gone, and your mother is no longer here. I only have your three brothers to rely on.“If you send all three of them to prison, what will happen to me? Who w
