Married at First Sight Chapter 241
Mike hung up the phone, ignoring his aunt’s scolding.He then let out a long sigh.He seriously felt he was unlucky because Serenity was unharmed even after he got help from so many people.Mike also felt that Serenity had a backer, but he did not know who that was.None of the mediators were willing to help Mike, which indicated that Serenity’s backer must be someone powerful in Wiltspoon. Through their investigation, Mike also did not notice that Serenity and Liberty knew any influential figures.Although Liberty’s husband was a manager in a large company, he was just an employee. Mike had no idea what kind of job Serenity’s husband had for a living, but he found out from the townspeople that Serenity’s husband only drove a national car worth around one hundred and twenty thousand dollars.Any of the Hunts’ scooters was better than the car belonging to Serenity’s husband.This showed that Serenity’s husband was not doing so well.If Mike were to guess who Serenity’s backer wa

Liberty returned to the bookstore and had another unsuccessful day at job hunting.Zachary was speechless when he heard what his grandmother told him.His grandmother sounded like she was gloating.“I won’t talk nonsense with you. Just come over for lunch now. Otherwise, I’ll tell Serenity that you’re the heir to York Corporation! Don’t try me. I found you a way to break this stalemate, but you don’t want to budge. By the way, I’ll tell you another secret. The gift that Elisa wants to give you is from Serenity. You’ll only know what it is when you accept it.”Zachary’s face turned even darker.His grandmother promised him that she would not interfere in his affairs with Serenity, but she threatened him by saying she would reveal his real identity to Serenity.Zachary hung up the call, but Grandma May did not care. She was also about to end the call anyway.“Mr. York, Ms. Stone refuses to give way,” the driver turned his head and said to Zachary.Zachary was silent for a minute.
Married at First Sight Chapter 243
Zachary’s exclusive car drove away from the entrance of York Corporation. Jim only let go of Elisa after Zachary’s car was out of sight.Elisa turned around to slap Jim.Jim quickly grabbed her wrist and warned her with a cold expression, “Ms. Stone, I don’t discriminate between men and women in a fight.”“Let me go! I dare you to hit me!”Jim flung Elisa’s hand away fiercely and said coldly, “I won’t hit you if you don’t hit me. Ms. Stone, if you’re rude to me, I’ll treat you the way you treat me.”Although Jim was a bodyguard, he did not feel inferior to others.His boss treated the bodyguards like brothers.If Elisa used her identity to threaten and hit Jim, Jim would not be polite to her.“You!”Elisa was shocked by Jim’s cold attitude. Unlike Serenity, Elisa did not know martial arts. She only used her status to act as she pleased in Wiltspoon and had never met another young lady who was more powerful than her. That was why Elisa could do whatever she wanted.Jim was not

“Zack, you’re here!”Grandma May came out of the store when she heard the sound of a car outside. She saw her grandson and walked over with a smile. Seeing that his grandson got out of the car empty-handed, she lowered her voice in dissatisfaction and said, “You came here like this?”“How else should I show up?”Grandma May was speechless.Zachary was truly an unromantic blockhead!Grandma May had to be the bad guy and nagged Zachary for two to three months, which annoyed him so much that he promised to marry Serenity, ending his bachelorhood. Otherwise, with his personality, Zachary would probably still be a bachelor in his forties.“Don’t you know how to buy a bunch of flowers or some gifts for Serenity?”“She doesn’t need it. The balcony at home is full of flowers. She can enjoy them whenever she likes.”Grandma May wanted to kick Zachary, but she held back.That was because if she kicked her biological grandson, she would feel heartbroken too.“Zachary’s here.”Liberty s

Zachary quietly looked at Serenity.He had not seen her for two days and suddenly felt that he liked seeing her face.The couple stared at each other.In the end, Serenity broke the silence. “Wash your hands and help me bring the dishes out. They’re ready to serve.”Zachary neither refused nor explicitly agreed. He pursed his thin lips and asked in a low voice, “Why did you buy so much seafood?”That was because he did not receive any notice of expenditure from the bank. Did Serenity buy all the seafood from her own pockets?Although they were at an impasse, Zachary still felt that it was his duty as a husband to support the family.“How much did they cost? I’ll transfer the money to you later. I agreed to pay for the living expenses.”Serenity turned to look at the seafood feast she prepared. She then smiled and explained, “It didn’t cost a cent. Ms. Stone brought these back from her beach vacation and gave me aplenty. When you send Nana home later, you can bring some back t

Grandma May noticed her grandson was busy eating and was not attentive to her granddaughter-in-law, so she quietly nudged her grandson’s foot under the table.Zachary looked at his grandmother with his dark and innocent eyes, pretending to be clueless about what his grandmother meant by that nudge.Grandma May was frustrated.In the beginning, Grandma May and her husband tried their best to raise their eldest grandson as their successor and poured all their efforts into him, but why were the results so unsatisfactory?Grandma May was no doubt satisfied with Zachary’s capability.York Corporation soared to the top and developed faster and better than Stone Group after it was handed over to Zachary.However, in terms of love life, Grandma May felt that her grandson had a negative EQ.“Peel some shrimp for Serenity.”Grandma May had no choice but to remind her grandson in a low voice.Zachary did not know how to seize such a good opportunity.He pursed his thin lips and thought,

Seeing that Zachary had not left yet, Serenity turned his head and asked him, “What’s wrong?”Zachary pursed his lips and said, “Nothing… I’ll go back to the office first.”“Okay.” Serenity responded casually, then turned her head back to cleaning the dishes.After taking a long stare at Serenity’s back, Zachary turned around and walked out of the kitchen.Grandma May was playing with Sonny. When she saw her grandson coming out of the kitchen, she looked displeased and said, “Zack, why didn’t you help Serenity with the dishes? She has been busy all morning and must be very tired.”The York men loved their wives dearly. Grandma May saw that her sons were considerate and fond of her daughters-in-law.So why was it that her grandson was so inconsiderate to her granddaughter-in-law?“Serenity doesn’t need my help. Nana, I’ll head back to the office,” Zachary said in a low voice and walked past his grandmother.The old lady opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but Zachary h

No wonder Jasmine and Serenity were best friends. They were two peas in a pod.The tackiest way to coax a girl was to give her money.When Zachary was in the store, he told Serenity they could not accept Elisa’s seafood for free. Thus, he wanted to transfer money to Serenity and ask her to give the money to Elisa so as not to owe Elisa a favor. However, Serenity refuted so righteously that he was speechless.They deleted each other’s WhatsApp, and Serenity blocked his number.If Serenity could not reply to his messages, how could Zachary send her money and make it rain?Zachary regretted that he acted petty. Just because of a little misunderstanding, he had a cold war with his wife and deleted her WhatsApp.He did not know how he could add her back.……At Waltham Electronics, Hank came out of the general manager’s office with a triumphant smile.When Jessica saw her boss come back with a bright smile, she immediately followed him into the office and closed the door.“Mr. Brow

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

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
