Chapter 3088

Penulis: Gu Lingfei
Jason’s two children were the youngest of Belinda’s grandchildren. They were in preschool and usually stayed with their maternal grandmother, whose house was near the preschool. It was more convenient for the kids.

Since that was the arrangement, Belinda would make monthly bank transfers to her in-laws for her grandchildren’s living expenses.

“Tell Emma to meet me upstairs when she’s back.”

“Okay, Madam Fisher. Incidentally, dinner is ready,” Elaine reminded her.

After a brief silence, Belinda said, “I don’t have an appetite.”

Neither her husband nor children were around. She could not enjoy her food as before.

Besides, her appetite was further ruined by her bad mood.

“You hadn’t had much for lunch. A lot of time has passed since then. You should eat.”

“I don’t feel like it.”

Belinda hung up.

Elaine sighed.

Not long after, Caroline returned.

Darren had given her a ride back.

She held cotton candy in one hand and two chocolate-dipped apple slices in the other.

    “Why are you eating this, Ms. Caroline?”Caroline retorted, “Why can’t I eat this?”“Only children like cotton candy.”Caroline replied, “I’m unleashing my inner child.”Elaine was speechless. “What’s the problem?”Elaine said, “Madam Fisher barely ate during lunch, Ms. Caroline. She skipped dinner because she didn’t have an appetite. Since you’re back, can you go upstairs and persuade her to eat something?”“My mom doesn’t have an appetite?”“That was what she said.”“Did someone visit today?” Caroline asked. “Her assistant came. She refused dinner after he left.”“Maybe something had happened and affected her mood. That was probably why she lost her appetite. Okay, I’ll head upstairs to check on her. Is she in the study?”Elaine said, “Yes. She also requested that Mrs. Clark meet her at the study once the young missus was back. Do you want to bring some food upstairs, Ms. Caroline?”‘Was it something related to Emma?’Caroline recalled mentioning the possibility of Ce

    Perhaps Celine had left the curtains drawn on purpose to let someone see them in action. Revenge in secret would mean nothing. Creating a huge scandal was the best way to exact her revenge on the Fisher family. “The butler said you didn’t eat, Mom. What’s wrong?“I haven’t eaten either. Why don’t I have dinner with you?”Caroline sat opposite Belinda. However, she stood up again and handed the chocolate-dipped apple slice to her mother. She said, “I bought this, Mom. You can have one.“I only bought one cotton candy. I already took a few bites, so I won’t be sharing it with you.”Belinda stared at the chocolatey apple slices, then the cotton candy. It was pink, a color that little girls liked. Her daughter was in her twenties, almost thirty. However, she still bought cotton candy for herself. Belinda did not care if other people ate cotton candy, but her daughter was the heir of the Fisher family. How could she…“Why did you buy this?”Belinda frowned and asked the same que

    “ Alivia couldn’t take it and in her hysteria, an accident occurred and she passed away. That was how the heavy burden of managing this family fell on me.”Caroline rarely heard Belinda mention her aunts.Now that Belinda was talking about it with a complicated expression, Caroline very much wanted to ask her if their deaths were her doing.The words were already on the tip of her tongue when she swallowed them back down.She did not ask.Even if she did, Belinda would not tell her.She would even get mad that her own daughter did not believe in her.“Mom, do you have a photo of Aunt Tiara and Aunt Alivia?” Caroline asked with faux curiosity as she munched on some cotton candy. “You said Liberty looks like Aunt Tiara, but I’ve never seen a photo of her, so I can’t tell. Liberty’s just her granddaughter. How similar could they be?”Belinda was silent for a long moment before she spoke, “I used to have photos of them. But after decades, those photos faded so much that they were u

  • Married at First Sight   Chapter 3092

    Caroline wanted to take another look at the photos, but Belinda stopped her. “You aren’t married yet, so you shouldn’t be tainting your eyes by looking at those photos.”“I’m almost thirty, it’s fine. But I’d better finish my snacks first so that I don’t puke.”Belinda was speechless.“Mom, I only glanced at them earlier, but the photos were very clear. Do you think Celine purposely had the curtains drawn for photos to be easily captured? I think she might have anticipated you looking into her and deliberately ensuring your men could get very clear photos.“People who are involved in scandals would do their best to cover it up, so I think Celine did that on purpose to get back at us. You wouldn’t have recognized her if she hadn’t.”Belinda said coldly, “Whether she did it on purpose or not, I can’t forgive her for doing such a thing.”“Hunter can’t let her go either.” Belinda added hatefully, “I’ve never thought Celine would be someone like this. What a waste of my love for her o

    After that incident with Celine and Hunter, Belinda seemed to have aged more than a decade overnight.In the past, she took great care of herself and looked like she was only in her fifties.Now, she looked like an old lady in her eighties.Caroline stayed silent.It was not appropriate for her to comment on her parents’ marriage.“Your dad was even harping on about how I had feelings for someone else, but I never cheated and that was all in the past. Who doesn’t have a past? Before he married me, he had an endless stream of women by his side. Doesn’t he have a past too?“I never held it against him even after we got married, but he had the gall to use the fact that I had feelings for someone else as an excuse.”Caroline’s eyes sparkled. “Mom, that person you loved must have been someone outstanding, wasn’t he?”“Very. He was a hundred times better than your dad. He’s the old friend I’m going on a trip to see in two days.“We haven’t seen each other in decades. I wonder if he

    Caroline had a gossipy and curious look on her face.Emma felt even more anxious at this.Photos?Of whom?“Hurry on in, Emma. Don’t make Mom wait,” Caroline urged in a whisper before leaving.Emma took a few deep breaths. Whatever it was, there was no running from it. She would have to go in.No matter how impressive her mother-in-law was, she was not going to eat her now, was she?Emma went in.The moment she did, she saw photos scattered all over the floor before the desk.Her scary mother-in-law was sitting behind the desk, munching on some fruit dipped in chocolate.Emma was a little surprised to see this.She did not expect her scary mother-in-law to be eating the same snack children fancied. It was probably given to her by Caroline.Belinda did not care what Emma thought of this as she finished the last bit before instructing, “Pick up all the photos on the floor.”“Yes, Mom.”Emma hurriedly walked over to the table and put her bag down on a chair before bending ov

    The main issue was that Belinda and Hunter had always doted on that harlot Celine and even treated her much better than they did Caroline.Each one of them who had married into the Fisher family knew they had to follow Belinda’s will.Since Belinda was so good to Celine, even if Emma felt uncomfortable about it, she still had to suck up to Celine on the surface.“That’s enough.”Belinda cut Emma off.“This isn’t your fault. I spoiled Celine too much in the past.”In this manor, everyone had to follow her will.If anyone was to blame, she as the matriarch was to blame.Emma said in a small voice, “You only spoiled her so much because you didn’t know she was a fake. I’m a mother now, too, and I also only have one daughter. I dote on her a lot too.”“Were the kids already dropped back off at school?” Belinda asked about her grandchildren.She treated them quite well.When she had just gotten Caroline back and initially felt that the girl was hopeless, she even thought of nurtur

    “I’m going to go settle the score with Adrian. He’s just a leopard that can’t change its spots,” Emma replied to Caroline as she walked.In her fury, she was walking faster than usual and in the blink of an eye, she had already reached the other side of the hall and exited the main house.Caroline soon heard the sound of an engine revving from outside and realized Emma had indeed gone out.After delivering the food upstairs to her mother, she made an excuse to leave and hurriedly left to follow Emma.Caroline was not worried that Emma would do anything impulsive in anger, but rather, she was worried that Adrian and Celine would join hands to make Emma suffer a loss.On the way there, Caroline received a call from Darren.“Where are you headed, miss?” Darren heard Caroline had gone out and called to enquire.“Emma’s gone to confront Adrian and Celine. I’m worried she’ll suffer, so I’m going after her to help.”Darren chuckled. “You’re not going to watch the show?”“I mean, I am

    The night passed peacefully.The next morning, Dylan woke up. He had been woken by the heat.The room was heated, and he had bundled himself up tightly before going to sleep. By midnight, he had started sweating, but he continued to sleep, so by morning, he was feeling too hot and woke up.“Imogen…” He instinctively called out her name.His voice was still hoarse, but it was much better than yesterday. When he received no answer, he remembered that Imogen had gone home last night. He was alone in the hospital.Late last night, his mother had called him, but only to laugh at him.Now, all alone, in a strange place, and sick, Dylan felt just a tiny bit homesick. It was much more comfortable at Wildridge Manor, after all. When all the York boys were home, it was lively and warm. There was his nana to fuss over him, and even though his parents liked to make jabs at him, they still cared deeply for him.It felt boring at home, but once he left, he realized how warm home really was.

    Sasha chimed in, “Exactly. It’s fine to laugh in front of us, but you laughed so loudly on the call too. Dylan is hurt both physically and emotionally, and no one is comforting him.”Rosella responded, “But Imogen is there to take care of him. She’ll comfort him.”Sasha sighed. “It’s so late now. Imogen needs to go back and rest, doesn’t she? Dylan hasn’t even won her over yet, so how could Imogen stay the entire night in the hospital with him?”Grandma May laughed, “You ladies know it’s late too, so why aren’t you three going back to your rooms to rest? Fortunately, the rooms are big enough that we can all chat here without disturbing anyone.“Remember, we’re guests. We mustn’t disturb the rest of the Johnsons just because we’ve come.”The three sisters-in-law glanced at the clock. It was almost midnight.As the eldest sister-in-law, Tania led the way. She stood up and said to Grandma May, “Mom, we’ll head back to rest now. Tomorrow, let’s go out and walk around.”The scenery a

    “Mom, I’m your real son!”“If you weren’t, I wouldn’t even bother with you and don’t even want to make this call.”Rosella added, “Alright, now that I know you’re fine, I can relax. Be good to Imogen, she’s a really good girl. I like her a lot. I hope you can get together this year.“Once you’re finally not single anymore, it should be about time for your younger brother to start dating too. Once all three of you are out of the bachelor’s club, all I have to do is wait for my first grandchild to be born.“I’ve saved up a lot of money for both your weddings, though honestly, I don’t think you’ll need it. You all are capable enough to make your own money to get married, so the money I saved for you can go toward my granddaughter instead.“I don’t even know if I’ll be fortunate enough to have a granddaughter.” Rosella sighed. “After seeing little Clo-clo, I finally understand why your nana is so fixated on her and wants to kidnap her. “That kid is so cute. She’s pretty, adorable,

    Imogen had been really worried that Dylan’s reaction to the chili peppers would leave him suffering for several days.“Okay,” Dylan hoarsely replied.Imogen let him eat the porridge by himself. There was nothing else to go with it, but the porridge had a little bit of salt sprinkled in, giving it some flavor.Dylan was hungry, so he quickly finished the bowl of oatmeal porridge. “Do you want more? There’s another bowl’s worth in the thermos.”Dylan shook his head. It was late, and he did not want to eat too much, afraid of gaining weight and ruining his good physique. He still had not won over his future wife, so he had to take care of his figure and maintain his handsome and charming look.Once Dylan finished the IV fluids and took his medicine, Imogen finally left the hospital around ten o’clock. Having slept twice in the day, Dylan was not able to fall asleep again, and Imogen did not let him accompany her downstairs, so he stood by the window and watched her walk out of th

    A few minutes later, Imogen took the thermometer from under Dylan’s arm and looked at it. She said to him, “It’s 100.4. Your fever hasn’t completely gone down yet, but compared to when you were admitted at 103.64, it’s come down quite a bit.“What time did you take your medicine? It should be time for your next dose.”Dylan shook his head, indicating that he did not remember when he had taken the medicine.Imogen thought for a moment and said, “I think it’s about time. Take your medicine first, then sleep for a while. I’ll have dinner brought over for you. In your condition, you can only have something light, maybe some oatmeal porridge.”Considering Dylan’s sore throat, Imogen knew he would not be able to eat much, so she called home and asked the housekeeper to bring over dinner, specifically requesting a bowl of oatmeal porridge for Dylan.Dylan could only nod in response.After giving instructions to her housekeeper, Imogen looked at Dylan, who could only nod, and said, “The

    Kade had once been so gentle and kind. Was he really that kind of person?Imogen did not believe so.It was possible that the Butcher elders were simply being too pragmatic. Seeing that Maria’s family was on the verge of decline, they thought that Maria was not worthy of Kade and tried to stop them from being together.But wait—Maria said that Kade had never told her he loved her or anything of the sort. Maria had basically been secretly in love with Kade, waiting for him to confess, but she had waited in vain all this time.Imogen internally sighed. What a mess. She could not understand what was the problem between them. She would just have to wait until Kade came back, and then she would find a chance to get some answers from him. “Imogen…” A hoarse voice called out from within the room. It was not very loud; he could not speak loudly. Though it was better than this morning when all he could get out were moans.He had received several bags of IV fluids, which had had some eff

    Imogen did not know that Dylan had woken up. She was still on the phone with Maria outside.Maria felt reassured when Imogen mentioned that the person she liked was a member of the richest family in Wiltspoon. All was good as long as he was not a social climber. Imogen asked, “Maria, when are you coming back? It’s been a long time since we’ve seen each other. Kade will be back soon. Are you really not coming back?“Maria, Kade and I are like siblings. Please don’t misunderstand or overthink it. Actually, you should know this—the person Kade likes is you. You two are the real childhood sweethearts, you grew up together.”Imogen and her mother’s godchildren had known each other since they were young, but the three of them had not actually spent much time together as she had always stayed with her master while she learned the trade, only returning home during the summer and winter holidays.Once the holidays ended, she would leave again. Even her formal education was completed in th

    There were so many other possible choices. Why were they so fixated on him?Leticia sighed. “Alright, just pretend I never said that. You youngsters will decide for yourselves anyway, we don’t have a say in it. Remember to fetch Kade from the airport on Saturday.“I’ve already told him and he knows you’re supposed to be picking him up. And remember to get some flowers too. You two haven’t met in ages and you should give flowers at a reunion.” She reminded Imogen.“Mom, I can pick him up, fine, but I’m not giving him flowers. Who said you’re supposed to give flowers at a reunion?” Imogen refused to give Kade flowers when fetching him from the airport. “Oh, Mom, I gotta go. Bye!”Imogen quickly hung up, not allowing her mother the chance to speak further. Then, after a moment of thought, she texted Kade to ask when he was expected to arrive at Huntington Airport.It took a while before Kade replied that he would arrive around eleven in the morning on Saturday.Imogen replied wi

    “I know you only view Kade as a brother, but who knows, if you nurture the relationship, those feelings might turn romantic? Jen, before you agree to be with Dylan, give yourself another option.“Make Dylan nervous. He’ll get jealous. He was jealous when he overheard our conversation that day.“You need to make him realize that even without him, you can still marry well. The Butchers like you a lot, and our families have a close relationship. You and Kade have known each other since you were young, so you guys could be considered childhood sweethearts.”Imogen said weakly, “Mom, I’m worried that if I get too close to Kade, not only will Dylan misunderstand, but even Maria might misunderstand. Kade and she are a thing, after all.“I really don’t understand what’s going on with Kade. He and Maria clearly have feelings for each other, they just haven’t made it official yet. Don’t their families see this?”She did not have any romantic feelings for Kade, but both families were trying
