Married at First Sight Chapter 2039
A hint of coldness flashed across Madam Fisher’s eyes. Celine actually believed in the words she spoke casually. Caroline was her biological daughter, at least. Although Celine was innocent, she had to pay for her father’s sins. Madam Fisher concealed her coldness and consoled Celine gently, “Alright. Don’t cry. He’s the third young master of the Yorks. Isn’t it normal that he didn’t treat you politely?“Stop crying. Your makeup is all smudged from crying. You should go to the lounge to touch it up later.”Madam Fisher sighed. She added, “Cece, even though we’re considered a wealthy family in Jensburg, we’re not in the top class. The Queen family has a higher status than us, but they can’t compare to the York family in Wiltspoon. There aren’t many top-class wealthy families like the Yorks.“You ignored my advice not to offend Kevin and did it anyway. I can help you if it were other people, but I can’t do anything if the person is Kevin.”“Mom.”Feeling aggrieved, Celine sa

After wiping Celine’s tears, Madam Fisher said softly, “Mr. Queen is young and promising, and Queen Enterprise is stronger in finances compared to the Fisher family. They also hold a higher status in Jensburg than us. Mr. Queen will never be a live-in son-in-law.“That’s unless you can make him fall deeply in love with you and willingly become the Fisher family’s live-in son-in-law for your sake. Now that Caroline is back, I must let her take over my position based on our family rules. Even if I’m unhappy with her inheriting the position, I can’t change the rules.“However, it’s better this way. Caroline and Mr. Queen can never be together while you’ll be able to pursue him openly. Cece, if you like Mr. Queen, you must use the correct method to woo him. You shouldn’t bully others with your identity. You don’t have the ability to do so either because you have very formidable love rivals.“You have to think of a way to obtain Mr. Queen’s favor. Remember, as long as you can make him fa

“You should get out quick, Caroline. Don’t spoil Mom’s mood here. Look at how angry she is because of you. Just go out.”Celine pretended to be nice and persuaded Caroline to leave. She even went forward to push and urge Caroline out. Caroline simply allowed Celine to push her out without giving an explanation and neither did she put up any resistance. After pushing Caroline out of the office, Celine shut the office door with a bang. She was elated. Mom had passed a few smaller businesses and subsidiaries to Caroline to manage, and she had produced remarkable results. However, while it seemed that Caroline had full control over them, it turned out that she had been relying on other people’s help. She also presented her brothers’ efforts as her own. If so, Celine was relieved. So what if Caroline was Mom’s biological daughter? If she could not satisfy Mom, she would not be able to be the next matriarch. Mom would probably hand over the position to Celine instead. After

Caroline was aware of everyone’s thoughts. Ring, ring…After entering the elevator, Caroline received a call. She only picked up the call after seeing the caller’s name. “Ms. Caroline, I received news that the previous matriarch, who was your eldest aunt, did have two daughters. They disappeared tens of years ago. I heard they’re currently in Wiltspoon,”Wiltspoon?Caroline asked coldly, “Do you know where in Wiltspoon exactly? How are they doing now? Do they remember anything about their family background?”“The elder daughter of the previous matriarch seems to have married into the Stone family in Wiltspoon. She’s the mother of the CEO of Stone Group. On the other hand, the younger daughter passed away in a car accident sixteen years ago, but she left two daughters behind. One of them is the missus of the York family, the wealthiest family in Wiltspoon.”Upon hearing that, Caroline’s expression changed. She heard some gossip after returning to the Fisher family. She happen

“I can’t keep this a secret, Ms. Caroline. I got my information from them. They’ve already sent someone to meet Mrs. Stone in Wiltspoon.”After a moment of silence, Caroline said, “Okay. I got it. Keep it a secret from Madam Fisher for now.”Her mom would probably have to return what she had stolen in the end. It all depended on her choice. After ending the call, Caroline leaned against the elevator’s wall and stared at the ceiling. The Fisher family was a mess. If the rumors were true, her mom’s hands were stained with the blood of her eldest and youngest aunts. Her mom would even disregard family ties to fight for power. She was ruthless. How could Caroline make a choice?What did she have to do?Caroline could never be her mom’s accomplice. Although she grew up in a village, she had proper values. She could differentiate between good and evil. She would make arrangements again after confirming whether Mrs. Stone in Wiltspoon was her eldest aunt’s daughter. What

“I wanted to return to working at the company and have Mom arrange an easy position for me. However, Caroline objected and said the company wouldn’t keep useless people. Was she someone useful herself? She’s the same as an idle person.”Celine had a lot of words cooped up inside her. She poured everything out to Emma. Her parents, brothers, and sisters-in-law still adored her more. “What else did Mom say?”Emma was more than happy to see Celine and Caroline fighting. “Mom also said if Caroline doesn’t buck up, she might not be able to be the next matriarch. From what Mom mentioned, I still stand a high chance if Caroline doesn’t do well as the successor. Emma, tell Brother to put in good words for me when he’s with Mom and let me work in the company again.“I want to fight with Caroline till the end. In any case, I’m the successor that Mom nurtured personally.”Celine was confident that she could beat Caroline. Emma said, “We’ve all put in good words for you in front of Mom

“It’s all about Caroline, Caroline. Who does she think she is? She’s just a useless person. Even with Mom’s effort to help her, she’s still incompetent. We’ll see who’s the true successor of Fisher Enterprise once Mom gives up on her. Those people who looked down on me better watch out!“There’s also Mr. Queen, the man I have my eyes on. I want him to love and worship me one day. Mom is supportive of me pursuing him too.”Celine thought of pursuing Hayden first while she was not the successor yet. She would snatch the identity as the heir back after successfully wooing Hayden. That way, she would have both her Mr. Right and status.It would be perfect. Emma was looking forward to Celine and Caroline battling each other. Her husband would be able to benefit from their conflict. Therefore, she kept flattering Celine and made her think she was the most outstanding woman in the world. Back in Wiltspoon, Serenity was also paying attention to the Fisher family’s internal conflicts t

“You’re so beautiful. You’re pregnant, but you still maintain a great figure. Your charm as a young married woman is only increasing. Even Mr. Bucham is completely wrapped around your little finger.”Jasmine snickered. “Everyone in the Bucham family is feeding me like I’m a pig, but you say I’m maintaining a great figure? I think you’ll see my belly start swelling very soon, but because of the fats. With how much they feed me every day, it’ll be strange if I don’t get fat. I want to work out, but Josh won’t let me.“However, I can’t control my mouth. I was already a foodie before, but now that I’m pregnant, it’s become worse. My mouth is like a rabbit’s. It never stops.”As Jasmine spoke, she got up and brought two boxes of snacks. “I brought these from home. They’re new products made by the pastry chef at home. I think they’re delicious, so I brought you two boxes to try.”Serenity took a box and said, “Your pastry chef is really good at baking. I’ll give it a try. If it’s good, I

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

Caroline hummed. “I do plan to visit Wiltspoon to see her sometime soon. I just don’t know if I’ll be kicked out when I get there.”“And I should visit Mr. Foster too. How is he, by the way?" Patrick was the longest-living person she had ever met. Back when she lived with her adoptive family in the countryside, the oldest people in town usually lived into their eighties, and few made it to ninety. Patrick was nearly a hundred years old. What was more, he could walk without support and even travel long distances with his old friends.Liberty replied, “He’s doing quite well. Aunt Audrey accompanies him on walks every day. When they don’t go out, he sits by the cradle and watches baby Elias for hours on end.”The bond between generations was strong. When Patrick looked at Clive’s son, Elias, he felt like he was looking at his great-grandson. As Tiara’s great-grandson, Elias was naturally like his own great-grandson, too.“Dr. Carden comes by periodically to check on him and adjus

Liberty had already called Audrey to inform her about what had happened and also mentioned it to Serenity.Knowing the Clark brothers had all been captured, Serenity felt thoroughly relieved and stopped worrying that her sister would run into trouble in Jensburg.She told Zachary that Caroline never let people down.Zachary did not comment.Caroline’s fever had completely subsided, but her coughing had worsened. The doctor had changed her prescription, but the effects were not immediate.When Liberty entered, Caroline was out of bed and walking around, supported by Darren.“Caroline, why are you out of bed?”Liberty scolded her, “Get back in bed and lie down. You’re injured. If you don’t rest properly and keep moving around, you’ll aggravate your wounds, and you’ll regret it.”She did not blame Darren, though. She knew Caroline always came first to him. He always followed her lead and was unable to influence her decisions.“I’ve been lying down all day. My back is sore, and I’m

The housekeeper replied, “Yes, sir.”They did not have much work in the first place, so they did not need to slack off. Once they were done with their work, they had tons of time to entertain themselves.Hunter rushed out the door with his car keys. Despite being over seventy years old, his driving skills were still quite good. Not needing to hire a driver, he drove himself straight to Jensburg.Upon arriving at the city, Hunter did not immediately go looking for Caroline. He was unaware that she had been injured.Instead, he went to meet his old friends to ask them to help him find out if anything had happened in relation to the Fisher family last night.After he finished speaking, one of his friends said, “We were about to ask you the same thing. Your three sons attacked your daughter with knives and even kidnapped her, intending to chop her up and feed her to the fish.“Luckily, that Mr. Fletcher, who works for your daughter, arrived with the police and rescued her, but she wa

The Queen family was well-educated and had few members. Sophia had heard of other families fighting over power, but Caroline’s experience shocked her the most. Maybe it was because the Queens was close to her. Sophia quite liked Caroline as well. “How could they… You’re their biological sister!”Caroline smiled bitterly. “Are you having a fever, Carol? Your face is red.”Sophia touched Caroline’s forehead. She said, “You’re burning up. Have you informed the doctor, Mr. Fletcher?”Darren replied, “The fever started at dawn. Ms. Caroline caught a cold. Her fever subsided after taking medication once, but it returned.“It’s time for her to take her medicine.”Sophia spotted the lunch boxes. She told Darren, “Go have your lunch, Mr. Fletcher. I can look after Carol.”“It’s okay, Mrs. Queen. I can eat on my own,” said Caroline embarrassedly. It was her first time feeling cared for by someone her mother’s age. Although Sophia was not part of her family, the lady treated her

Caroline looked toward Darren. She said, “In my younger days, I often caught colds and coughs when the weather was too cold. The coughing will last throughout the changing of seasons. Therefore, I’ve been looking after my health since I grew up.“My immune system strengthened a lot. I haven’t been coughing for years.“I’m not worried.”Caroline stared at Darren lovingly. “I have nothing to be worried about with you here.”Darren pinched her face lightly with affection. “I’m still sulking. I didn’t want you to risk yourself, yet I couldn’t stop you. I’ll only feel better once you recover.”He was Caroline’s assistant and had to heed her orders. Even if they were dating, he still had to follow her arrangements.“Okay. Don’t be angry. I won’t take risks like this again in the future. You’ll age quickly if you get angry frequently. If that happens, your hair might turn gray before I even grow old.“We promised to grow old together.”Under Caroline’s gentle coaxing, Darren’s expre

Darren became an orphan when he was only a few years old. After losing everything, he was collected and trained by the training center to be an all-rounder assistant. He could not remember how he lost his parents as he was too young back then. Since he had no memories, there was no pain.Nevertheless, he had seen others interacting with their parents. He knew parents should love their children. There were not many parents who would not shower their children with love. Ms. Caroline was too unlucky to have met one. “I don’t care. I don’t care about my dad at all.”Caroline asked, “Has my dad asked you to give him money? He doesn’t need money. He just wants to know about his sons’ conditions.“Having lived for so many years, he was probably aware of the consequences of his sons’ plan and had advised them not to do it. They didn’t listen to him, so he’s just hoping to get lucky and waiting for some news.”Hunter must have known that her brothers were going to murder her. Sinc
