Married at First Sight Chapter 3625
Belinda and Mr. Gordon returned to Fisher Enterprise late at night. Most of the employees were working overtime. Some had worked slower on purpose to see if both of them would be back. If they could return, it would mean that they had been framed for possessing firearms illegally. Maybe the police were not able to find the guns as well. The Clark brothers were nervous wrecks. They could not focus on work until the secretary informed them that Belinda and Mr. Gordon had returned. Upon hearing that, the brothers exchanged glances and let out a sigh of relief. Justin said, “I knew someone must’ve framed us. I’ve never seen a gun throughout my entire life of being Mom’s son. Even if I did, they were toy guns Mom had bought for me.”Adrian and Jason laughed. Similarly, Adrian had never seen his mother’s or Mr. Gordon’s guns. The Clark brothers quickly went downstairs to receive their mother. Belinda and Mr. Gordon entered the building with bodyguards escorting them.

“When that time comes, my teacher and I will search Fisher Manor again. Unless she swallows the gun and we can’t cut her open to find it, my teacher and I will never fail.”Most of them were aware of Belinda’s way of doing things. Sure enough, at ten o’clock at night, someone rang the doorbell. Elaine was there to deliver invitation cards to Audrey and the rest. They were invited to have dinner at Fisher Manor tomorrow night. Those who held high status in the Fisher family would also attend the dinner. Since it was a family banquet, Belinda mentioned that inviting the Queens would not be appropriate.She dared not and did not wish to be the Queens’ enemy. Audrey told Elaine, “Tell your madam we’ll arrive on time tomorrow evening. Please prepare more dishes as well. Since it’s a welcome banquet for me and Uncle True, everyone should have a hearty meal.”Elaine said politely, “I’ll relay your words to Madam Fisher, Mrs. Stone.”Audrey responded, “I prefer people addressing me

“It’s late. You all should rest,” said Audrey.Most of them were used to being night owls and were not tired yet. However, since Audrey said so, those staying in Queen Manor retired to their rooms for the day. Those who were not staying there went back to their hotels.Zachary stayed at Fortress Hotel. As soon as he sat on the sofa after returning to his room, his phone rang.He had a hunch it was Serenity who called. Sure enough, when he looked at his phone, it was a video call invite from her.The tension in Zachary’s face bled out right away. He accepted the call. Once it connected, the first thing he saw was Sonny’s face.“Uncle Zak.”Sonny was delighted to see Zachary. He greeted him with a smile and turned to say, “It’s Uncle Zak, Aunt Ser.”Serenity bent over and approached the camera so that Zachary could see her. She asked, “Are you back at the hotel?”Zachary replied, “I just returned from a meeting, and you called. Why haven’t you gone to bed yet, Sonny?”Sonn

Sonny liked having younger playmates around. They were tiny and adorable, just like the little boy at Grandaunt Audrey’s place.Whenever he went to Grandaunt Audrey’s house, he had the urge to tell Aunt Ser to carry the baby boy back to their house. He could take care of the baby and had many toys for the baby boy to play with. Zachary smiled. “That’s not true. I love you the most. I’m asking after your little cousin in your aunt’s belly because I’m concerned about her. I’m worried she might be tired or uncomfortable. Don’t you care about your Aunt Ser, Sonny?”Sonny nodded and replied, “I do care about her. I love Aunt Ser the most.”“See? Since you love her, you don’t want her to suffer, right?”“Yes.”“I’m just like you. I asked after your aunt because I care about her. It has nothing to do with favoritism. Do you understand, Sonny?”Sonny blinked and looked toward Serenity. After thinking, he nodded and said, “I understand, Uncle Zak.”Zachary praised him. “You’re so cleve

Sonny replied without hesitation, “Of course. I like Dunc. Having one more dad is pretty good. Other people have one dad, while I have two. Isn’t that great?”When Duncan first asked Sonny if he wanted a new father, Sonny answered that he already had one and was content with that.Now that Sonny had grown up and developed a relationship with Duncan, he could accept having another dad.Since he was more attached to Duncan, who was about to become his stepfather, he had grown distant from Hank. It was primarily because the Browns liked to stir up trouble, which diminished Sonny’s feelings toward that family. Sonny was still very young. As long as the Browns spent quality time with him and were sincere with him instead of trying to use him to obtain benefits, they could still develop a wholesome relationship with him. It would only get more challenging when Sonny grew up. Once he had thoughts of his own, he would no longer be easy to trick. Well, the Brown family was shortsight

“Your mom has been working tirelessly all day and can only rest late at night these days. We should consider giving her a well-deserved break.”Sonny thought about it and said hesitantly, “Okay. I’ll go to sleep and call Mom tomorrow morning. Please wake me up earlier tomorrow, Aunt Ser.”“Sure. I’ll wake you up at half past seven. Your mom usually has breakfast at that hour.”Sonny finally waved at Zachary and said good night to him. After that, he left Serenity’s room and returned to his shared room with Laurence. Laurence was taking notes from a book. He was copying the benefits and side effects of each drug compound. When he saw Sonny return, he raised his head and asked, “Did you manage to call your mom, Sonny?”Sonny walked over and saw what Laurence was writing. He did not recognize most of the words. “My mom is still busy and can’t have a video call with me. Aunt Ser told me to come back and rest. I’ll video call my mom when she’s having breakfast tomorrow morning.“

Serenity could only whisper sweet nothings with her husband after Sonny left. “Serenity, you should relax and have fun at FC Manor with Sonny. Don’t think about anything. I’ll come and get you two after I finish my work here.”Serenity retorted, “You’re the one who needs more rest than I do. I can feel your exhaustion just by looking at your face. Delegate some of your work if you can. Don’t insist on doing everything yourself.“That’ll be tiring. You shouldn’t pull all-nighters just because you think you’re young. You might face health issues if you do it often. You might even die a sudden death.“Remember, Zachary. You aren’t single anymore. You have a wife and a baby on the way. The baby and I will be waiting for your return.”Zachary smiled warmly. “I know, honey. Don’t worry. I’ll always think before doing anything. I can protect myself as well. I’ll consider you and our baby in whatever I do. Just take it easy and wait for me to pick you and Sonny up.”After staring at him

However, since no one ever expressed such thoughts openly, Serenity acted clueless.The happier she was, the more jealous other people would get. “It’s late, honey. Go to bed. Even if you aren't sleepy, our baby needs to rest.”Zachary, who felt a little guilty, quickly changed the topic and coaxed his wife to sleep. Nevertheless, he was reluctant to end the video call himself. Ultimately, it was Serenity who hung up. She put her phone down and caressed her bump. She mumbled to the baby in her womb, “Lil’ Bun, your dad is still keeping secrets from me. Even if it’s a white lie, he’s still lying.”After a short silence, she added, “We can’t blame him, Lil’ Bun. He’s doing it for our sake. I can’t risk going over because of you. Those who love you aren’t willing to let me go over because it’s too dangerous.“Do you think your dad and the rest can return safely?”The baby in her womb moved slightly under her touch as if answering her.Upon feeling a kick from the baby, Seren

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

“I’m not obliged to provide for you, Mr. Clark.”Darren would not give Hunter money. He also felt Hunter was trying to obtain some information through the call, not money. Hunter said furiously, “Aren’t you going to marry Caroline? You’ll be my son-in-law in the future. It’s like being half a son to me. Since you’re my son, you should look after your father. Quick. Give me the money.“Otherwise, I won’t let you marry my daughter.”Darren said without hesitation, “Ms. Caroline will decide for her marriage.“If we do get married, she’ll be the one in charge of the finances. I don’t have money.”“Fletcher! Are you a man? Can’t you revitalize the spirit of the Fisher family’s sons-in-law? You saw how I ended up like this. I didn’t have access to the finances and didn’t have money. I’ve been under strict control ever since I married into the family.“That was how I ended up in this miserable state. I’m telling you, the Fisher women are evil. It’s best if you don’t marry Caroline.

“Why would a husband have an affair if his wife could do well?”Ellie was exasperated. She ended the call without hesitation. “Old bastard. The apple really doesn’t fall far from the tree. All your sons cheated on their wives because they have a perverted father like you.“I would’ve divorced Jason if it weren’t for my children being too young. Look at Emma now. She even received half of Adrian’s assets and doesn’t have to look after her children herself. How relaxed her life must be.”The wealth Belinda had left behind was sufficient to afford the children’s education. Ellie still had feelings for Jason. Otherwise, she would have gotten a divorce upon knowing he cheated on her. She would not have reconciled with him with just a little coaxing and advice from her family. Since Jason did not return home the entire night, Hunter guessed his sons’ plan had failed. As he had expected, Caroline was not an easy target. After all, she was Belinda’s biological daughter.

Since the call ended abruptly, Adrian’s girlfriend, Irene, muttered, “Is Mr. Clark unsatisfied with me?”She was almost twenty years younger than Adrian. If he had not been rich and willing to spend his money on her, she would not have wanted to be his lover. Adrian promised to marry her after he was done fighting a legal battle against his sister and claiming his inheritance. He would make her the missus of the Clark family. As for the three children he had with his ex-wife, he had told Irene not to worry about them.Since his mother had left some money behind for her grandchildren, he did not have to pay child support. Irene knew Adrian used to be a young master of the Fishers and that Madam Fisher was extremely wealthy. She did not expect Belinda to be helping her son take care of his children even after her death. Considering Adrian would be able to receive a huge portion of inheritance in the future, Irene decided to be with him. If she did get married to him, and gave
