Chapter 2473

Penulis: Gu Lingfei
“Reveal your identity and the person who ordered you to pick me up. Otherwise, I won’t follow you.”

After a short pause, the old woman said, “You’ve matured after being in prison. My husband’s last name is Clark and he was your dad’s business partner. They’re acquaintances.”

Clark?

Carrie did not know much about her family business. Her parents rarely talked to her about business as she was still young.

The only thing she knew was her family was rich and her parents would give her anything in the world.

Sometimes, she heard her dad mentioning that their business was booming.

They must have come because they knew her dad.

“How did you know that I’m being released today, Mrs. Clark?”

The old woman’s smile never faltered. “I had someone find out this information several times. We’re friends with Mr. Newman as we collaborated on some projects previously. He requested us to look after his son and daughter before going to jail.

“Your brother’s doing well. He’s on good terms with

  • Married at First Sight   Chapter 2474

    Everything Mrs. Clark mentioned about helping her was simply out of courtesy. All of Carrie’s misfortune stemmed from Camryn and Serenity. Her parents, who had protected her all along, were in jail because of Camryn. She bore an irreconcilable grudge against Camryn and refused to witness her two enemies becoming the Yorks’ daughters-in-law.As for Trenton, he had been closer to Camryn than he was to Carrie since he was young. He always accused Carrie of bullying Camryn too. Carrie knew she could not count on Trenton to work with her. She was young and lacking in connections and capability. It seemed she had no choice but to join forces with other people. It did not matter whether what Mrs. Clark said was true. Anyone who was Serenity’s enemy could be her partner. The enemy of her enemy was an ally. Therefore, Carrie got into Mrs. Clark’s car. After the car started moving, Carrie asked, “Do you know how my aunts are doing now, Mrs. Clark? I can’t possibly seek revenge and

    Half an hour later, Mrs. Clark brought Carrie to a motel. It was a small, mediocre motel. Although Carrie did not say anything, she mentally complained that Mrs. Clark was stingy for not giving her a room in a five-star hotel. Mrs. Clark booked a room for Carrie before ordering someone to bring a bag from the car and pass it to Carrie. She said, “These are new clothes. You can come back down here after bathing and changing. I’ll take you out for a meal.”Carrie accepted the bag and went to her room upstairs. Despite having spent some time in prison, the haughty nature she had from growing up in a privileged environment remained. She hated the motel. Carrie did not take a long time to wash up. She changed into the clothes Mrs. Clark had prepared for her after a quick shower. Then, she blew her hair dry and stared at her reflection in the mirror for some time before combing her hair. She had lost a lot of weight. However, she still looked beautiful as she was young.“I won’t

    A hint of hatred flashed across Carrie’s eyes. She said, “In that kind of environment, most people get straightened out.“You mentioned you wanted me to provide you with information, Mrs. Clark. How much will you pay me?”Carrie was unemployed. After going to prison, her stuff was sent to her parents but belongings like her phone, bank card, and car keys were probably with Camryn when her parents were also jailed. While Carrie could retrieve those things from Camryn, she still had no say in Newman Enterprise. Not only was she unfamiliar with the company, but Camryn also had Dalton and Callum’s support.Moreover, Camryn had probably been entirely in charge of the Newmans’ family finances after being the head of the family for some time. Carrie felt disgusted at the thought of her needing to ask Camryn for her allowance. Mrs. Clark said gently, “You only have to find out information about Serenity and send it to me promptly. She’s the York family’s missus now. Everything she doe

    Carrie thought, ‘I’ll have all the money I need after taking back what’s mine. Do I even need Mrs. Clark’s money?’Nevertheless, she hated Serenity and wished to see her suffer. Anyway, someone was willing to deal with Serenity now and Carrie simply had to gather some information without even needing to meet Serenity in person. She found it doable. Carrie said, “I’ll prove myself, but I was just released. My phone and bank cards are probably with Camryn now. We’ve been enemies ever since I can remember. She’ll never return those things to me. I need some money to work around.”Mrs. Clark handed a bank card to Carrie and said, “Of course. Here’s thirty thousand dollars for you to spend.“If you’re truly capable, you can go to the Newmans’ villa to take back what’s rightfully yours after this. Even if you fail, try getting your phone and bank card at least.”Carrie accepted the card and asked, “What’s the PIN?”“Six eights.”Carrie pocketed the bank card. Mrs. Clark was sting

    Carrie cleared the food served on the table without minding her image at all. Mrs. Clark only managed to eat a few spoonfuls. She smiled as she watched Carrie gobbling everything down. After Carrie was done eating and wiping her mouth with a satisfied expression, Mrs. Clark asked, “Are you going back on your own, or shall I have someone send you?”“I’ll take the taxi, but I’m afraid you’ll have to pay the taxi fare upfront for me.”Mrs. Clark nodded. “Sure. You can take the taxi back.”She then handed Carrie a thousand dollars in cash and said, “This is for the taxi.”Carrie kept the money and did not linger any longer. She got up and told Mrs. Clark, “Thank you for the meal. Looking forward to a pleasant partnership.”Mrs. Clark nodded with a smile. “I believe we’ll work well together.”Carrie departed and Mrs. Clark paid the bill before leaving the diner upon seeing Carrie get into the taxi. Her subordinates were waiting for her. Once in her car, she said to the person in

    After writing the prescription, Lilian passed it to Callum and said, “Do you still have the medicine I sent over previously? Get these newly prescribed ones and let Camryn have them with the previous medications.“I’ll examine her again when she’s done with the new prescription. Bring her out on strolls more often if you have time.”“Thank you, Dr. Carden,” Callum said earnestly. He would prepare Camryn’s medicine personally every day to ensure they were the right ones and had not been tampered with. Lilian teased Camryn about this before. Callum was the most attentive caregiver she had ever seen throughout her practice. She said Camryn would definitely have the sweetest and happiest life in the future.Spring finally arrived for Camryn when she met Callum as her life before him had been an endless, brutal winter. Although she received Dalton’s help later on, she had suffered a lot and was even abused when she was young. “The eye wash solution is running out, Dr. Carden. Does

    Lilian’s words made Camryn realize that Paige played a role in her infertility.She had always thought it was due to her poor eating and sleeping routine during puberty and the abuse she had endured. She did not expect Paige to have done something else to her. Was her mother really the culprit?Even wild beasts would look after their young. Her mother was truly no better than an animal. On the contrary, Paige was extremely caring toward Carrie and Trenton. Her love for them was sincere. She simply disliked Camryn, the child who resembled her the most. If Camryn had a choice, she wished to take after her dad’s features more than her mom’s. Sadly, she looked strikingly similar to Paige. Callum thanked Lilian once again. Lilian smiled and said, “You don’t have to be so polite. If you really want to thank me, preparing a feast for me before I return to Annenburg will be sufficient.”Callum’s cooking skills were superb. Although Tim cooked too, he was not as good as Callum. C

  • Married at First Sight   Chapter 2481

    Lilian’s husband, Tim, disliked it when she visited the Yorks, especially when she praised Callum’s cooking. He would also say that Lee’s cooking skills were comparable to Callum’s.Lilian agreed that Lee’s and Callum’s cooking were similar, but there was still a distinction.Moreover, Lee seldom cooked. As his sister-in-law, Lilian was too embarrassed to always ask her brother-in-law to cook for her.Thus, the best solution was to ask Callum to give some cooking tips to her personal chef.Callum readily agreed.Camryn and Callum watched as Lilian got into the car. Callum’s mom, Rosella, arranged a driver for Lilian during her stay in Wiltspoon because she came specially to treat Camryn’s eyes. Rosella was grateful and treated Lilian as an honored guest.She also paid for all of Lilian’s expenses in Wiltspoon.“Camryn, let’s go back inside. It’s quite hot out here.”Callum took his fiancée’s hand and walked toward the main house.When they got to the door, they heard someone s

    Immediately, someone brought a large cup of water for Dylan. Imogen took the cup and handed it to him, urging him to drink. Dylan accepted the cup and drank it all in one go, which eased the spiciness in his mouth a little. “Imogen, your cousin said I need to finish these peppers, but I haven’t even eaten half yet.” Dylan looked at the basket of peppers and saw that he had not eaten even half of them. He had never eaten this much spice in his life. Right now, his throat felt like it was on fire, and his voice was hoarse. The intense heat was affecting him badly.If this had happened in Wiltspoon where the climate was warmer, after eating so many peppers, his throat would have been terribly inflamed, and he probably would have an upset stomach and a serious case of indigestion. Then, he would be stuck in the toilet for half a day.However, since it was cold in Huntington, eating a little chili every day was not a problem, though not as much as Dylan had just eaten. His stomach

    “Did you need me for something, Layla?” Imogen, despite being in a rush to stop Dylan from continuing to eat the chili peppers, asked Layla.“Of course, I came to talk to you about work,” Layla replied.“But the discussion might take a while. Are you going to discuss work with me first, or go downstairs to stop Dylan from eating more peppers first?”Imogen hesitated for a moment but decided to stop Dylan first. Layla guessed that her cousin would choose Dylan and sighed inwardly. Imogen was already wrapped around Dylan's finger. However, Dylan had not entirely escaped Imogen’s influence either. Though he had not fallen in love with Imogen herself, he had fallen for her alter ego, who was still her cousin in the end.Fortunately, the woman Dylan loved was her cousin's alias. If he had chosen another woman, Layla would never have allowed her cousin to take him back. The Doyle ladies did not settle for second place.“Layla, give me about ten minutes.”“Alright, I’ll wait for you

    It was already so spicy, there was no way it could get worse. Thus, following his family's advice, he began grabbing huge handfuls of chili peppers and stuffed them into his mouth. The heat made his eyes water, and it felt like his mouth was swelling from the spice. Imogen also saw the comments and watched as Dylan continued to eat the peppers in large mouthfuls. She turned off the livestream, not wanting to keep watching. However, her heart was in such a mess that she could not focus on her work. A few minutes later, she tossed her pen aside, pushed her chair away from the table as she stood up, and walked out quickly. She ran into Layla as soon as she left the office.“Layla,” Imogen called out. “You heading out?” To be honest, Layla knew the answer without asking. “He’s eaten quite a lot of chili peppers already. He doesn’t usually eat spicy food. And eating so much at once will harm his stomach.” Imogen still felt sorry for Dylan. Layla smiled, “If you're worried

    The security guard brought out a basket and handed it to Dylan.Dylan took the basket and poured the bag of chili peppers into it. Next, following the live broadcast team’s instructions, he walked in front of the camera and said, “Last year, I unintentionally hurt Imogen’s pride. It was my fault, and I apologize to her.“Imogen doesn’t have time to deal with me, but Ms. Layla Doyle said that as long as I eat chili peppers on this livestream, she’ll allow me to come here every day to wait for Imogen. I’m afraid of spicy food and usually don’t eat anything spicy at all.“But for the sake of seeing Imogen and having a chance to get her forgiveness, I’m willing to accept Ms. Layla’s challenge and eat these chili peppers.”The live broadcast team was at a loss for words.Layla had not prepared a script for Dylan, but he went ahead and explained the backstory. Was that okay?Someone secretly messaged Layla to ask for her opinion. Her reply was to allow Dylan to say whatever he wanted a

    Isabella had invited him to sit at the dining table and eat with them, but Austin refused. He said he was the chef, so he could just have his breakfast in the kitchen.He always remembered his position as Isabella's personal chef and did not let the fact that the others saw him in a more favorable light now go to his head and cross the line. His adherence to his principles and awareness of his position only made Isabella respect him more.Though he was one of the extremely affluent Yorks, after accepting the job as her private chef, he completely discarded his identity as a rich heir and earnestly took on the role of her personal chef.By the time Austin finished his breakfast, Isabella and the two young boys had also finished eating. He came out to clear the table.Phillip slid off his chair and said to Louis, “Isa’s passing by my preschool today. She said she’ll take me there.”He was showing off. Sure enough, Louis looked enviously at his sister. Isabella did not even glance

    Austin placed the two breakfast portions on the dining table and then walked over to Isabella, who was still reading the newspaper. “Ms. Isabella, breakfast is ready.”“I’m coming, I’m coming.” Louis’s voice came from the stairs. Then, they saw him quickly running down the stairs with his schoolbag in one hand.“Louis!” Isabella called out.Louis immediately stopped, then picked up his schoolbag to carry it on his back before slowly descending the stairs step-by-step, no longer daring to run.The two boys really did have very similar personalities.“Good morning, Isa. Good morning, Austin.”Louis walked over to Isabella’s side and respectfully greeted them.“If I ever see you running down the stairs again, I’ll punish you by making you miss a week of eating Austin’s meals.”“Isa, a week is too long!” Louis instinctively tried to negotiate.“You still dare to bargain with me, huh? That shows you don’t want to change. In that case, I’ll make it a whole month.”Louis was speec

    “Isa, Austin promised me that he would make cartoon-shaped snacks for us this Saturday. You won’t mind, right? I’ve already told my classmates, and they’re all coming to our house!”The little boy was also concerned about his image. He was afraid his serious eldest cousin would refuse, and if that happened, he would be so embarrassed. After all, after Austin promised him, the other kids at preschool treated him so well. They all wanted to try the cartoon-shaped snacks Austin made. However, since Austin was Isabella’s private chef, if Isabella did not agree, there would be nothing even Austin could do about it.Isabella lightly pinched Phillip’s cheek. “Since Austin’s promised, he’ll keep his word. I’ll be resting at home this weekend and won’t stop you, but don’t make a racket here. Go do it at your own house. I need to rest.”“Thanks, Isa! I’ll tell my friends not to disturb your rest. Isa, has Louis not woken up yet?”With Isa’s promise, Phillip’s little face lit up with a smil

    Upon hearing that Phillip might be coming, Louis moved much faster.Isabella did not wait for her brother. She said, “Head downstairs by yourself later, and make sure to check your schoolbag to see if you’ve packed your books and water bottle.”She would not help her brother check those things. Every day, she made sure her brother checked everything himself because it was his responsibility. If their parents or employees tried to help, she would scold them.Now, their parents no longer dared to help Louis with things he could do himself. They let her take charge of him. Her parents had Louis when they were in their forties, and he was their only son. If they were the ones raising him, Isabella was sure her brother would have been spoiled beyond reason.“I know, Isa,” Louis replied, already starting to brush his teeth.After leaving her brother’s room, Isabella headed downstairs. As soon as she reached the first floor, she saw Phillip running in with his little schoolbag on his

    Isabella patiently said, “No, you can’t. If you sleep for ten more minutes, time will be too tight, and we’ll hit the worst of rush hour when everyone’s heading to school or work. There’ll be too much traffic and you’ll be late. You mustn’t be late.” If her brother was constantly late, he would get used to it and start liking to sleep in. Isabella would not let him develop such a bad habit.“Isa, I won’t be late. Every day when I arrive at school, there are still plenty of classmates who haven’t arrived. I can just tell the driver to speed up.”“Absolutely not! It’s not safe to drive too fast. It doesn’t matter if the other students are late, but you can’t be late. Get up now, or I’m going to get angry.”Louis pouted.Amused, Isabella pinched his lips, saying, “Come on, get up. In two more days, it will be the weekend, and you’ll get another two days off.”“This holiday was too short.”Under his sister’s urging, Louis reluctantly sat up. “It feels like we just got let out for w
