Married at First Sight Chapter 33
The shopping trip took two hours. Accustomed to the convenience of five-star transportation, Zachary was exhausted from the two-hour shopping as Serenity’s personal porter despite taking self-defense classes and keeping a fitness routine. He would rather be buried under a pile of work and meetings than go shopping with a woman. As the car came to a stop, Serenity got a call from Grandma May before she stepped out of the car. “Are you home, Serenity? We’re downstairs.” Serenity replied with a smile, “We just returned from the market, Nana. Wait for us. We’ll be right there.” “Did you go to the market with Zack?” That put a smile on Nana’s face. Nana thought to herself, ‘To think my callous and stuck-up grandson put aside his pride and go shopping with Serenity at the market.’ Since he wanted to play the pauper, Zack might as well step into the shoes of an ordinary person. “Yeah. We went to get groceries.” “Zack has always been busy with work, so he’s never been to th

It was an inconceivable mental image. “Be alert and don’t expose our identities to Serenity. Son, say that you don’t have pensions. You grow vegetables and flowers for a living.“Get your stories straight. Zack will go after you if you blow your cover. Don’t come crying to me then.” Seeing the fun in her grandson’s plans, Nana was committed to helping Zack stay in character. Nana had no doubt that Serenity was a good kid and not driven by greed. At her age, Nana was a good judge of character. “Got it,” answered everyone. The Yorks were no stranger to Serenity as the latter saved the old lady's life. In fact, Grandma May's sons and daughters-in-law were the ones who expressed their gratitude toward Serenity back then.Zachary’s mom mostly kept to herself as she was not in favor of Grandma May nagging her son into marriage. Nevertheless, her resistance was futile as the old lady managed to sell her proud son the idea. Sure, Zachary’s mom was grateful that Serenity saved Grand

The ever-friendly Rowan had a blast chatting with Serenity. After witnessing Serenity using Zachary as a porter, the boy was on Team Serenity now. Rowan believed he could hide behind Serenity for anything! Liberty and Hank, together with their son, Sonny, arrived a little later than the Yorks. Since Serenity’s husband knew the car owner whose luxury sedan was scratched by Liberty, the damages only came to nine thousand bucks. Hank did not dare to make light of his new brother-in-law. Hank did not take the meeting seriously at first but adopted a different attitude when he actually met with the family. After meeting with Zachary, Hank was in awe of his brother-in-law as Zachary commanded the room with his revered presence, more so than his boss could. “Mr. York.” All smiles, Hank extended his right hand to Zachary, “Hello, I’m Serenity’s brother-in-law.” Zachary shook hands with Hank and faintly uttered, “Hello, Hank.” He then extended his greetings to Liberty. Liberty
Married at First Sight Chapter 36
Zachary refused to be associated with Hank, not only because Zachary found the likes of Hank type to be a pain in the neck, but also for Hank’s attitude toward Liberty. Sonny was thirsty, and the milk bottle containing water was right in front of Hank on the coffee table. Instead of grabbing the milk bottle, Hank had to call Liberty all the way there to feed their son water. Today was only their first encounter. Yet, Zachary was able to pick up on Hank’s contempt and lack of respect for his wife. Hank believed Liberty had it easy being a stay-at-home mom. Due to his upbringing, Zachary did not take too kindly to men who disrespect their wives. Although he and Serenity got married on the day they met without any feelings involved, Zachary gave Serenity the respect she deserved. Serenity smiled. “I see. That’s all right.” “Kevin’s very articulate. Hank won’t feel left out with Kevin around.” Looks may be deceiving when it came to Kevin, who ranked third among Zachary’s age

“Mr. York, I’ll do it.” Serenity gestured for Zachary to move aside. Holding his tongue, Zachary gave way and handed the apron over to Serenity. However, he did not leave the kitchen. Standing in a corner, Zachary watched Serenity tackle the dishes and remarked, “We should have the next family event at a hotel. It’ll save us the trouble of cleaning.” “Okay.” Serenity had no objections to that. She only cooked up a storm to make a good impression with her in-laws since it was the first time both families came together. “What did Nana say to you?” Zachary asked suddenly. Pausing the dishwashing, Serenity turned her focus on Zachary. The couple’s eyes met as Zachary’s head was facing her too. Zachary caught a glimpse of the playfulness in her eyes when she blurted, “Nana asked if we’re sleeping in separate rooms. She said since we’re married, I should be bold and take the lead to throw myself at you, strip you naked, and bang you.”Zachary was speechless.That certainl
Married at First Sight Chapter 38
Well, too bad the young couple was not that close. Zachary and Serenity were only sharing a living space while still carrying on with their separate lives. Even if Zachary was p*ssed at her to kingdom come, Serenity could not care less so long as he did not kick her out. Serenity washed the dishes and cleaned up the kitchen before mopping the entire house. Finally, she sat on her recent purchase – the balcony swing – and enjoyed the cool night breeze in her hair. That was the life. Not to mention, the balcony was a mini garden. Looking at the flourishing greenery, Serenity was once again in awe of Zachary’s competence to get the job done. The sound of steady footsteps led to the balcony. Soon, Zachary came to the balcony. The sight of Serenity swinging leisurely only added grimacing lines to Zachary’s scowling face. He drew close and handed two sheets of paper to Serenity. “What’s this?” Serenity asked out of curiosity. Although Zachary buttoned his lips, he got the m

Taking the pen, Serenity got up from the swing and walked to the balcony railing to sign her name on the contract against the hard concrete. Zachary took out an ink pad for her to seal the agreement with a thumbprint. The couple kept one copy of the contract each. Serenity folded the contract nonchalantly and stuffed it in her pocket. Zachary was irked by her incuriosity, but who was he to judge? He wrote the contract after all. Even though the demands outlined were detrimental and worked to her disadvantage, Serenity did not try to add a clause to get more than what was already stated. “You had a tiring day. Get some rest.” “You too.” Serenity said with a smile. “I’m going to sit here for a bit and enjoy the flowers. It has always been my dream to have a balcony filled with plants. Now that my dream has come true, I just can’t get enough of the view.” She did not seem to hold the contract against him at all. Did she marry him without a hidden agenda? Was he just bein
Married at First Sight Chapter 40
Zachary and Serenity were merely a married couple on paper anyway. Even if the alcohol was getting to Zachary’s head, he did not need Serenity to tend to him. God knew if she would take advantage of him while he was intoxicated. At the age of thirty, Zachary had not lost his first kiss to anyone. Much less, had the sanctity of his modesty violated. Romance had never been in the cards for Zachary.Nana often called him a loveless and passionless man, but because of his lackluster expectation toward love, Zachary married Serenity to get Nana off his back. Despite searching all his pockets, Zachary could not find his house keys. He said, “… Jim, maybe you should wake the missus.” It appeared that he had left home without his keys. The bodyguard immediately pounded on the door. Although Serenity was asleep, she was a light sleeper, and the pounding woke her up. She pricked up her ears and realized someone was at the door. As she got up to see who it was, it dawned on her tha

Tony Longbottom was the only person who would put on such a parade. The big shots in Satbury usually had entourages of their own, but none would put on a spectacle as big as Tony would.As they departed in their car, Tony’s gracious demeanor utterly shattered.His face twisted into an ugly, cruel expression as he said, “I’ve never been treated like this before, even when the legitimate branch of the family still lived, and those two ignorant little girls actually refused to see me multiple times.”Manny was very angry too and he said, “Pops, since they refuse to go about this the easy way, we’ll have to show them the hard way. We can approach it from other angles, and once they’re completely out of business and they have nowhere else to turn to, they’ll be at our mercy.“Won’t they have to do as we please then? I want to marry them, they’ll have to marry me, and if I don’t, I’ll just make them my mistresses. Don’t the O’Connors have plenty of daughters? I’ll fuck every one of them

“Isabella O’Connor is so outstanding, so why are you asking me to go for Tati O’Connor instead?” Manny said under his breath in puzzlement.He had seen photos of the two ladies and Isabella’s appearance was more striking. She had a cold and aloof aura that easily triggered his desire to conquer her, and after just a few glances, he was captivated.If it were up to him, Manny would choose Isabella.Tony looked at his son, smiled, and said, “You can’t control her. Of course, if you manage to make her fall for you, we can talk about switching. But for now, focus on Tati O’Connor.”Tati was also beautiful. However, she did not have Isabella’s cold demeanor. She seemed much gentler, like she smiled often.“Marrying Tati O’Connor would be a big advantage for both you and our family.”Manny thought for a moment and then nodded in understanding. “Got it, Dad.”Manny’s good looks, wealth, honeyed tongue, and generosity toward girls made him good at winning them over.

After testing the O’Connor sisters and realizing they were not like other women, Mr. Longbottom thought of having his son marry Tati.He knew that his son would not be able to handle or control Isabella, so he set his sights on Tati. Tati probably did not realize she was considered an easy target. Most people underestimated her because she had always kept a low profile.At that moment, a young man got out from the other side of the Rolls-Royce. He resembled Mr. Longbottom. Indeed, he was Mr. Longbotton’s eldest son, Manny.“Dad.”Manny went to his father’s side and glanced at the building before him. He asked, “Aren’t we driving inside?”In Havenmill, Manny could do whatever he wished because his father was the interim head of the Longbottom family. While he had no respect for ordinary people at all, he was clever enough not to offend people he should not.He never parked his car outside the places he wanted to go and simply drove his car through the gates. However, Manny

“Sonny’s fine. He has recovered. You want to get Sonny from school?”After thinking about it, Serenity agreed and said, “Okay. I’ll message Sonny’s teacher later to tell her you’ll be taking him.”“Okay, Serenity. Thank you.”Hank was thankful that Serenity did not make things difficult for him. Serenity and Liberty had great character. Liberty had a new relationship and already let go of her resentment for Hank. She could coexist with him peacefully. On the other hand, Serenity still held grudges against Hank. However, since he and Liberty had divorced, he could no longer hurt her. He was also Sonny’s father. Serenity was willing to tolerate him for Sonny’s sake. Therefore, she always said yes whenever Hank requested to meet his son. “You’ll be taking Sonny out to eat after picking him up, right? Remember not to let him eat too much fried food, especially fried chicken and fries. He’ll get a sore throat.“He got a fever that day due to a throat inflammation.”“Got it. I’ll

Meanwhile, Serenity, Elisa, and Jasmine were in the office of their fresh produce company.However, the only person working was Elisa.The two pregnant women were simply there to watch her and pass the time.“Has Dylan’s livestream of him eating chili peppers ended?”Jasmine had just returned from the bathroom. She got curious when she saw her two friends no longer watching their phones.“It ended long ago. Imogen stopped him before it even got to fifteen minutes. She got soft-hearted too quickly.”Serenity was eating a plate of fruits. She said, “The person who falls in love first will always give in quickly.”“Dylan can’t eat spicy food. Eating chili peppers for more than ten minutes is enough. He might really die from the heat if he continues.”Elisa smiled and said, “Well, it’s not as if Dylan isn’t in love too. At least he was willing to eat hot chili peppers for Imogen. He even ate them for over ten minutes. From the livestream, it seemed like the chili peppers Layla had
