Married at First Sight Chapter 1819
Grandma May said unconcernedly, “Why should I be worried about Kevin? He’s already panicking. Before I came here, I received a call from him asking me for a favor, and I helped him. I’ve prepared the cabbages, but am I supposed to slice and boil them before feeding the pigs?”Zachary’s face turned dark.At the mention of cabbages, Grandma May hinted that her grandsons resembled pigs.Had Grandma May seen good-looking pigs like her grandsons?She always described them as pigs.Grandma May yawned and rose to her feet. “I’m sleepy. I’ll go to bed now. You should sleep early.”“Good night, Nana.”Grandma May was ready to head upstairs to rest. After taking a few steps forward, she paused to turn around and ask Zachary, “After Duncan was discharged from the hospital, does he need Liberty to look after him? Duncan is just stubborn. He’s in love with Liberty, yet he’s pretending as though he’s able to get over her.“If he remains stubborn and continues to fake it, I’ll matchmake Liber

Serenity took her phone to send Zachary a message. Just then, her phone rang. She looked at the incoming call, only to see “Love Rival #1 - Jenna Daniels”.Jenna came to look for Serenity and even asked for Serenity’s contact number. Serenity was ready to deal with her love rival. She was not afraid of being contacted by Jenna, so she gave Jenna her number. Jenna was even worried that Serenity gave her a fake number, so she called Serenity on the spot to confirm.Serenity labeled Jenna’s number. Preempting that she might have many more love rivals to come, she numbered Jenna as Love Rival #1.She wondered what the last number of her love rival would be.Serenity picked up Jenna’s call.“Ms. Hunt.”“Ms. Daniels, are you planning to ask me out for a coffee?” Serenity asked directly.Jenna choked before she replied with a smile, “Don’t worry. I’ll definitely find time to treat you to a coffee since I owe you one.”“I’ll be waiting.”“Ms. Hunt, you sound like you’ve just gotten up

Serenity chuckled. “Coincidentally, I dislike sharing my man with others. Ms. Daniels, if you want to have Zachary, you can look for him. If Zachary relays this to me, I’ll let you have him, and you can immediately become Zachary’s wife.”Jenna replied, “Serenity, Zachary is out of your league.”“I’m the one who married Zachary. I’m legally his wife. Whether or not I deserve to have him is our private matter. As an outsider, you don’t need to worry about it.”Jenna was determined to be the other woman and meddle in Zachary and Serenity’s marriage. She had put aside her conscience. How shameless. “Ms. Daniels, you’re in no position to tell me whether Zachary and I are a good match. I wonder who on earth you are to Zachary. Even Zachary’s nana and parents have never said such things to me. What gives you the right to do so, Ms. Daniels?”Jenna was at a loss for words.Not knowing how to refute Serenity’s claim, Jenna hung up the call. After Jenna hung up, Serenity shouted, “You

Serenity instantly knew the cause.She guessed she had been schemed against, and it was her man who saved her. No wonder she woke up with an ache in her waist.Instead of discussing this matter with Grandma May, Serenity chose to have her breakfast. She planned to ask Zachary about it when he returned.Meanwhile, a rare guest, Andrew, visited the CEO’s office at York Corporation.Zachary put down his pen. He lifted the cup of coffee from his desk with one hand while taking out his phone from his pocket with the other. Just as he wanted to phone his beloved wife, Andrew knocked on the door and came in.When Zachary caught sight of Andrew, he chose not to phone his beloved wife for the time being. He sipped his coffee, watching Andrew walk up to him. “Zack.”Andrew greeted Zachary before sitting opposite him.“What would you like to drink?” Zachary asked his cousin.“I’m not thirsty. If I am, I’ll fetch some water on my own.”Since Andrew was his cousin, Zachary did not have t

“Not only did Mrs. Stone ask me for help several times, but Clive also used a carrot-and-stick approach. The two of them seemed to have decided to take advantage of me. Do I look like I can be easily taken advantage of?”Andrew was bewildered. The Stones were stubborn, but were they not worried that Elisa would choose not to get married if they separated Elisa from Remy?Elisa was not the sort who would allow her parents to meddle in her marriage.Previously, none of her family members approved of her going after Zachary. She was stubborn and refused to listen to them.Well, Elisa’s stubborn streak ran in the family; her family was stubborn too.They were all so stubborn that they would not compromise.Zachary said helplessly, “I didn’t manage to persuade Aunt Audrey. Even your sister-in-law has persuaded her countless times but to no avail. What’s your decision? Have you agreed to help Aunt Audrey?” Andrew responded, “I haven’t. This is troubling me, so I came to vent my probl
Married at First Sight Chapter 1824
If Remy heard this, his thought would be, ‘Zachary, I’ve always treated you well. Why are you doing this to me?’Zachary, ‘It’s only when competition exists that you’ll feel stressed and cherish my wife’s cousin more. As Elisa’s relative, I’m giving you a test.’Remy, ‘It’s so hard to get a wife in this day and age!’“Something is wrong with Julian?”Andrew seemed to have discovered something new, which aroused his curiosity. He asked Zachary, “Zack, what’s wrong with Julian? Is he impotent? No wonder he’s still single although he’s around the same age as Duncan. I thought he hadn’t met the love of his life. It turns out that something is wrong with him.” Julian had always been the first to get scoops. Little did he expect that he would one day become the main subject of the scoop.“He’s not impotent. He’s said to be callous. It’s only when he meets a girl who is his cup of tea that he’ll be a real man. Otherwise, he’s no different from a eunuch. It’s not known whether this is t

“Let me talk to Julian now.”Knowing that Zachary was busy, Andrew stood up and planned to take his leave after pouring out his problems.“Why are you so desperate? Julian might not be at home. You should ask Josh before heading to the Buchams’ place so you won’t go there for nothing.” At the thought of how mysterious Julian was, Andrew hummed in acknowledgment. He said, “I have no choice but to be desperate because I’m extremely worried that Mrs. Stone will matchmake me with Elisa. She can scheme against someone without a trace. Only after getting into her trap will one come to their senses. By then, it’ll be difficult to get out of the trap.”Zachary laughed. “If Aunt Audrey plots against you, it means you’re outstanding. Everyone in Wiltspoon knows that she loves Elisa very much. She’s only interested in outstanding men.”“Zack, are you praising me or gloating at my misfortune?”“Both.”Andrew’s face darkened before he said, “Let me ask Josh. Because of Mrs. Stone’s doing

Serenity felt Zachary did not take action because he had benefited from it. It was also because that old pervert was not targeting her. Otherwise, with Zachary’s personality, he would have made that pervert suffer in secret. Zachary seemed to have sensed what she was thinking. He added, “Although he wasn’t targeting you, I won’t let such a shameless pervert off easily. Don’t worry. Your husband will stand up for you.” “I thought it was Ms. Daniels’s doing. She called me and said bluntly that she fell in love with you at first sight. You have such good luck with women, Zachary. You have pursuers before and even after you’re married, and they’re all young and beautiful.”In the end, Serenity’s words sounded sour. Zachary picked up on that and asked her, “Are you jealous?”“I’m not. To be jealous is to be bitter, and I don’t like bitter stuff.”Zachary laughed. “Honey, people who say those things are always proven wrong by reality. I used to be one of those people.”Serenity bur

Meanwhile, in a private room at Fortress Hotel in Jensburg, Caroline and Liberty stood up together and shook hands with their client, having successfully closed a business deal.The two of them escorted the client downstairs.After the client got into their car and left, Caroline turned to Liberty and said, “Liberty, it's getting late. Mr. Lewis is still waiting for you inside, so go get him and head home early to rest. The weather is really cold.“He still has trouble with his legs and isn’t used to the cold here, after all.”Duncan had caught a cold on his third day here.After seeing a doctor and taking medication, he was still coughing a little.Liberty did not move. Instead, she asked Caroline, “Are they making their move tonight?”“How would I know? They’ll act whenever they want. I’m just waiting. It’s likely to be soon, though. I’ve spread the word that Darren is on a business trip for half a month.”She did not want Liberty to worry, so she did not tell her that her fi

How long had it been since she last truly appreciated the night view of Satbury?Every day, she left home early and returned late, rushing from one place to another, with endless meetings, piles of documents to process, and countless business deals to negotiate.It always felt like there was not enough time.Before she knew it, time had flown by.It seemed just yesterday she had taken over the family business, but in the blink of an eye, several years had passed.Back when she first took over, many people had looked down on her, doubting her ability to manage the O'Connors’ vast empire. Many had wanted to devour the O'Connor family, to carve it up and take a share for themselves.Her parents’ generation was utterly mediocre, and after her grandparents passed away, they could not hold things together.As a result, the O'Connors’ family business declined and they lost a significant amount of money.On top of that, their extended relatives tried to exploit the situation, digging p

Isabella smiled, “Every time I hear you talk about your family, my heart gets restless, and I feel like going to meet them myself.”She even felt the urge to join their family, but she could not bring herself to say that out loud.Austin treated her very well. Tati said that when Austin looked at her, there was a sparkle in his eyes, and she kept saying that Austin had come here for her.Technically, Austin could indeed be considered to have come here for her, but it was really because of her picky palate and because she was hiring a private chef.To put it bluntly, Austin had come for the sake of culinary art.Sometimes, when Isabella locked eyes with Austin and saw him looking at her so intently, she could not help but wonder if he felt something for her.However, such thoughts were always quickly brushed aside.She and Austin were simply employer and employee.Austin treated her well because she was his employer. If there were any issues with the dishes he prepared, she coul

Austin smiled meaningfully, “My entire family will be very happy and warmly welcome you if you come with me to attend my nephew's sip-and-see shower.”In fact, his family would likely treat Isabella as his future wife, extending the kind of hospitality reserved for a daughter-in-law.However, Austin did not voice this thought.He and Isabella had not reached the stage where they could openly flirt like that.In any case, he was not in a hurry. Like a good stew, he would gradually win Isabella’s heart with time, and everything would fall into place naturally.“Your sister-in-law hasn’t given birth yet, so why are you already saying it’s a nephew?” Isabella teased belatedly. “Are you all hoping for a boy?“I heard from Ruth that your family elders are all hoping for a baby girl, though.”At the mention of that, Austin smiled wryly. “Ms. Fuller’s been to Wiltspoon and has heard about my family. She knows that our elders have always wanted a baby girl, so she must have also heard ot
Married at First Sight Chapter 4153
Isabella asked, "When is your sister-in-law due?"She did not have a private chef who could fill in for Austin. If he took a leave of two or three days, she could manage, but if he requested a longer leave, she might not approve it.Zachary York’s wife was pregnant. Isabella had learned about the Yorks’ situation through a friend. Since she was Austin’s sister-in-law, it was natural for him, as the uncle, to want to go back and see his nephew.“I’m not sure. I asked my brother, and he said it might be in about two months. It could be earlier or later, it’s hard to say. I’ll go back when my sister-in-law is hospitalized. Once she’s discharged and returns home for postpartum recovery, it won’t be convenient to visit, so I’ll come back to work.“Then, when the baby is one month old, I’ll definitely go back for another couple of days. After all, he’ll be my first nephew and the eldest in the family’s new generation.”Isabella thought for a moment and said, “If it’s just two or three d

Austin knew she said that because she was afraid he would not agree, but how could he not? Rather, he wished for it.“Alright. If you don’t mind, I’ll eat with you from now on. Ms. Isabella, please go ahead and eat. I’ll quickly prepare some fruits for dessert.”Isabella glanced at him but said nothing and left.In the past, unless it was a social engagement, she would rarely have dessert.Usually, after finishing her meal, she would hurry back to her lounge to catch some rest, never bothering with fruits.Isabella realized belatedly that Austin had subtly influenced some of her small habits into changing.These small changes allowed her a bit more time to rest, which in turn improved her health.Soon, Austin came out.He had sliced some of the fruits and arranged them into the shape of a phoenix spreading its wings, while the smaller fruits were left whole to serve as the finishing touches.“In just this short time, you actually managed to create a phoenix,” Isabella praised.

“Isa has a networking event tonight, so she’ll be working overtime. You should bring her dinner.”“Sure.” Austin was here precisely to do that.Tati entered the elevator. When she turned around, she saw that Austin had already walked off.Tati chuckled to herself, “When will it be my turn to meet a good man who only has eyes for me?”Isabella had Austin now. Even though they had not officially started dating, they were clearly interested in each other. In the near future, they would definitely become a couple, and if both sides’ parents had no objection to it, they would eventually be a loving husband and wife.Though, at the thought of her family circumstances, Tati was still a little worried that Isabella and Austin might not get to that point.Isabella could not move far away after getting married as she still had to manage the family business. Her husband and her in-laws had to be understanding and tolerant of the fact that she would be very, very busy.They had all heard th

Isabella wanted to say something but ultimately decided against it. Tati had a point. She could push the boys too hard. They were still young, and they deserved a carefree and happy childhood. She had already put too much pressure on Louis and Phillip. “Austin accompanies the boys when he’s free. I think he’s great with kids. Maybe he has experience from babysitting in his family.”The York family had nine sons in their youngest generation and no daughters. Austin was the sixth in line with three younger brothers. Rowan was the youngest and still a minor. Thinking about it, he must have been raised by all his older cousins and brothers. No one understood how much pressure Rowan was under as he grew up. His older brothers were outstanding individuals. He would not have been that stressed if any of them were mediocre. He kept chasing after his brothers’ footsteps. He did not know when he could ever catch up to River and Austin. He would have to live with that pressure fo
Married at First Sight Chapter 4149
“Isa, do you know many hotels and restaurants are waiting for you to switch Austin out? That way, they can snatch him away and make him their star chef.”With Austin’s culinary skills, he could be the head chef at any hotel.Isabella smiled. She said, “It depends on how much they can offer him. He already has his own hotels and restaurants. He’s already successful in the F&B industry.“How can they possibly hire him to be their chef? That’s unless Austin buys their hotel.“Besides, I haven’t gotten bored of Austin’s food. They’ll have to wait. “You can make a bet on whether Austin can last a full year as my private chef. I think you might win, but there’s always the possibility of losing.”There would always be wins and losses in a bet. Tati smiled. “Some people already made their bets. However, they betted on whether Austin could last for three months first. I guess those who put their money on him leaving before three months are up will lose.“For the second round, they’re
