Married at First Sight Chapter 3758
Belinda still viewed tradition seriously. No matter how big of a fuss Adrian and his brothers made, the gates of Fisher Manor remained closed. Adrian spotted Audrey and Patrick strolling in the garden, but they ignored the Clark brothers. The brothers finally knew the feeling of losing their mother. When she was alive, they were still young masters of the Fishers despite being Clarks. They could live in the manor with their parents and lead a lavish lifestyle. They could also enter and leave the manor as they wished. Adrian had always thought Fisher Manor was their home. How was it not theirs when they had been born and bred there?Although their mother had bought them villas as a wedding gift after they got married, the brothers still preferred living at Fisher Manor. Their villas were inferior compared to the manor. They thought they could live there for their entire lives. Even if Belinda were to pass away, Caroline would have become the matriarch and continue livin

“It’s cold out here, Uncle True. Let’s head back inside,” said Audrey.Patrick looked around the garden before focusing his gaze on the Clark brothers. He said, “Let’s go back in a few days, Audrey. No matter how many memories this place holds, your mom won’t come back.”He wanted to stay for some time to reminisce. They did not plan to stay at Fisher Manor for too long. After all, Fisher Manor was meant for the matriarch and her family to live in. Each matriarch passed it down to their daughters, who would succeed them. Belinda had only become the matriarch after murdering her sisters and had broken the tradition. Since everything had returned to normal, Belinda’s family had to move out of the manor. The only exception was if Caroline took over. However, even if Caroline became the matriarch, the people who could live in the manor would be her children, not her brothers and sisters-in-law.Therefore, Adrian and his brothers would still have to move out of Fisher Manor.

Although Lisa had left behind two daughters who were doing well, Patrick still felt guilty about her death. “Let’s go inside. Jensburg’s weather is too cold. I’m already shivering even though we haven’t been out long.”Darrell smiled. “We’re old and not as resistant to the cold anymore.”When he was young, he often skied in the northern region, and the cold did not bother him. After getting older, he preferred spending his winters in Wiltspoon instead of going to the north. Compared to the negative temperatures in the north, the winters in Wiltspoon usually had higher temperatures and felt relatively warm.“Okay. Let’s head inside.”Darrell and Audrey helped Patrick as they walked toward the main house. Maybe it was the cold weather or because his wishes were fulfilled, but Patrick felt his health worsening and his spirits lower. He even needed someone’s support to walk. Lilian came over to check on his health daily. In private, he requested Lilian to ensure he could live

“Right, let’s go find Caroline right now. She’s back at work today.”Justin and Jason echoed Adrian's words. Unable to enter Fisher Manor, the three brothers left in frustration and headed for the company in a huff. At the entrance of the Fisher Enterprise, they saw Liberty's car just pulling out and knew Liberty had come to see their sister again.Adrian ground his teeth in anger, wishing he could ram his car into Liberty's. However, two bodyguard cars were following Liberty for her protection, and with Duncan’s arrival, no matter how much they hated Liberty, they did not dare to act against her. Even when their mother was alive, they had hesitated to confront Liberty. It was only later when their mother learned that Patrick was still alive that she had considered taking action.Unfortunately, in the end, their mother failed. Both she and Mr. Gordon were dead, and with her passing, their once large family had fallen apart. Their father was powerless and without influence to use h
Married at First Sight Chapter 3762
When Darren looked at Caroline, his eyes were filled with affection; Adrian could see it clearly. Darren was outstanding, and while the brothers treated him politely, they secretly looked down on him. He was no Mr. Gordon; Mr. Gordon was their mother’s right-hand man and had watched them grow up, so they did not dare to underestimate him and respected him greatly, but Darren was their peer and even younger than them.Adrian held a low opinion of Darren. It was fine for him to be Caroline’s assistant, as arranged by the retainer training center, and they had no right or authority to stop it. However, if his sister were to pursue a romantic relationship with Darren, Adrian would be dissatisfied. He felt that Darren was not good enough for her.No matter how distant they were, they were still full-blooded siblings. Adrian naturally hoped his sister would marry a powerful man so they could rely on their brother-in-law for support in the future.Caroline sat across from her brothers. Aft

Adrian scolded, “Caroline, have you ever given us a single thought? We're your brothers! Even if we didn’t treat you well before, we didn’t actually do anything to you either. Can't you remember that we’re family?“What are we supposed to do if you give away the entire Fisher legacy? We don't even have a leg to stand on in the company anymore. Do you think that we’ll still have a future with Liberty taking over? They’ll kill us without lifting a finger just by driving us out of the company.“If news gets out that anyone who works with us is an enemy of her, do you think anyone will dare to employ us? She has the backing of three of the biggest families from Wiltspoon, and she’s on good terms with the Queens in Jensburg. Who would still want to hire us?“You may be capable enough to support yourself, but we aren't, and we have families to support. Your nephews and nieces need to go to school, which costs a lot of money. When your nephew grows up, he’ll need to buy a house and get mar
Married at First Sight Chapter 3764
Her indifferent demeanor infuriated Adrian and his two brothers. Jason suddenly stood up, strode over to Caroline, and attempted to slap her. He did not succeed. Caroline swiftly grabbed Jason’s wrist with one hand. She had never gone for self-defense training—her adoptive parents had treated her poorly, so they would not have sent her to such lessons. However, she had been bullied frequently in the past and had some fighting experience, which made her quick to react.In a flash, she splashed the remaining coffee from her cup onto Jason's face. He was completely unprepared, having never expected his sister to be able to seize his wrist. He knew Caroline had never learned any self-defense skills and usually had bodyguards when she went out. Darren also often stayed close to her, ready to rush to her aid at the earliest moment if anything happened. They were aware that Darren also arranged for people to protect her secretly, as the head or successor of the Fisher family always had b

“Do you think you’d even have this much if it weren't for Mom killing Aunt Tiara and Aunt Alivia to seize it all? Your personal belongings are your business to handle as you wish, but whatever is within my authority is up to me, and you have no right to say anything about it. It won’t change my decision even if Mom were to come back to life and criticize me for it, much less you.”Caroline looked at her three brothers. “However, I do understand your anger and resentment, so if you want to curse at me, go ahead. I can take it. I won’t hold a grudge against you for that, but stop thinking about going back to Fisher Manor to take the antiques and valuables to sell for money. Those were passed down through the generations by the matriarchs and will continue to be done so. No one is allowed to touch them.“Even when Mom was alive, she never coveted those things. Don’t listen to Dad and rush to take and sell them—that’s theft. If Audrey calls the police, you’ll be in serious trouble. Don’t

“Although Caroline is our biological sister, she doesn’t treat us as her brothers. We only recognize Celine as our sister. I really wish we could turn back time.“We shouldn’t have allowed Caroline to return to the Fisher family. Ever since she came back, the family had been declining. Many things had happened. My mom’s dead, and my dad’s crippled. All of these are related to her.“Caroline’s an ungrateful bitch. I can’t believe she sided with the people from Wiltspoon. Even now, she’s constantly in contact with them and giving away Fisher Enterprise.“It should’ve belonged to Celine.”Jacob and Michael stayed quiet. They had known for a long time that their biological sister was not Caroline but Celine, the then-successor of the Fisher family. Therefore, they treated Caroline badly and often abused her.Although Caroline had learned to put up resistance after growing up, she was still bullied by Jacob and Michael.She hated them. She did not know the truth in the past and

The two men were Celine’s biological brothers, Jacob and Michael Dott. Adrian nodded. “That’s good to hear. Grieving is useless. Avenging Celine and seeking justice is more important.”Jacob and Michael remained silent. They could not do much. When their father was still the Fishers’ butler, he received a high salary with excellent benefits; the Dotts were the wealthiest family in their town. Since their family was rich, the brothers never put effort into studying. They spent time with questionable friends and led a life of debauchery. Jacob and Michael only matured after marrying and having kids. However, their father was already in prison. Meanwhile, Caroline, whom they used to abuse, had returned to the Fisher family. Celine had refused to return to the Dott family and simply gave them some money. Jacob and Michael had built houses in their town and furnished them well. The money they used was from Caroline and their parents’ savings. Since then, their financial crisi

In the afternoon, Duncan fetched Liberty from Fisher Enterprise for dinner. Caroline stood at the building entrance, watching Liberty and Duncan leave. She was envious. She missed Darren. Although he was still following her, he could not expose himself before others. She was not used to it. Nevertheless, she had to endure it to lure the Clark brothers into her trap. She thought, ‘Please make your move soon, brothers. Don’t keep me waiting.’At that moment, Adrian and his brothers exited the elevator. They were discussing something as they walked. When they saw Caroline standing at the entrance, they paused for a moment. However, they quickly pretended they did not see her and walked past her.Soon, three cars left the company.Caroline stood there for a few more minutes before heading to the parking lot. Her personal bodyguards were waiting at her car. They quickly went to her when they spotted her, while one of them opened the door for her. After Adrian left the com

“I’m used to him being by my side. Now that he’s hidden, it just feels weird.”Caroline added, “Even if I want to kiss him, I can only do it in my dreams.”Liberty was speechless. Seeing Liberty being at a loss for words, Caroline smiled. “Did I renew your impression of me?”“Yes. I didn’t know you were this kind of person.”Caroline giggled. “Darren’s too serious and respectful. If I don’t take the lead, we might sleep on opposite ends of the bed after getting married. He probably won’t even dare to turn in bed.”Liberty thought of Darren’s face, which constantly had a stern expression. He only looked normal around Caroline. He indeed treated her respectfully and never dared to offend her. Liberty said, “You’re still his master. It’s only natural that he’s acting that way.“When you two become husband and wife, he’ll change. However, you won’t have to doubt his love and loyalty for you.”The next thing Liberty knew, Caroline asked her private questions regarding married lif

Caroline moved first, exiting the elevator.Adrian blocked her path, refusing to give way.Caroline did not want to argue with her brothers, so she simply sidestepped and continued toward the CEO’s office. The Clark brothers watched her leave.“Let’s go, Adrian.” Justin entered the elevator first.Adrian withdrew his gaze and led Jason into the elevator.“I heard Darren’s out on a business trip and has been sent to another province to handle some matters, so he won’t be back for at least ten days to half a month,” Jason shared in a low voice. “And for the past few days, Caroline’s only been accompanied by those few bodyguards of hers. There really hasn’t been any sign of Darren with her. I’ve asked someone to look into it and verified Darren left Jensburg by flight a few days ago. What do you think, Adrian?”Adrian replied under his breath, “We’re at work. Don’t talk about that here. We’ll talk about it when we get home tonight.”Justin and Jason immediately shut their mouths.

“I’m in charge now, not your mother. If you can’t do the work, then don’t cling to your positions and collect a salary for doing nothing.”Liberty had no intention of tolerating their laziness any longer.The three brothers had tried investing and running their own businesses, but they mostly ended up losing money. The only stable income they had was from renting out the properties and shops they owned.That was why Hunter had advised his sons to return to Ashford, buy more properties and shops, and live off the rental income. It was much more stable than their business ventures.If the properties were hard to rent out, they could always sell them and recover some money, but with their business investments, not only did they lose money, they often ended up in debt by the time the businesses failed.It was a mystery how much of Belinda’s personal wealth had been spent helping her sons pay off their debts while she was alive.However, there were times when they made money. They wou

They had taken a few days of sick leave, but after receiving the news, they miraculously “recovered” and returned to work.However, their behavior did not improve. They continued strutting around the company, acting as if they owned the place, just as they had before.While others completed the tasks Liberty assigned on time, the three Clark brothers always dragged their feet. They only ever barely managed to finish them after repeated urging, and the results were still always far from satisfactory.“Look at the plans and reports you submitted. They’re a complete mess! What kind of work is this? You all sit in the positions of vice president, earning high salaries, and this is how you perform?“Do you think your work justifies your pay?”In the CEO’s office, Liberty sat behind her crescent-shaped desk. The three Clark brothers stood in front of her, having been summoned.Liberty slammed their work results onto the desk in front of them and her face was filled with anger as she be

Darren stopped walking.Caroline stopped as well.“What’s wrong?” Caroline looked at him. “You don’t want to follow my plan?”“I’ll do whatever you ask of me. It’s just, could we delay it for a couple of days? I’m worried…”“Darren.” Caroline’s expression turned serious. “Trust me! And trust yourself. I have the ability to protect myself, and you have the ability to protect me too. I might get hurt, but I won’t be in any life-threatening danger.”She glanced at Liberty and Duncan walking ahead, both had not noticed that the two behind had stopped. The distance between them had widened.Taking advantage of Liberty and Duncan’s oblivion, Caroline quickly cupped Darren’s face, tiptoed, and kissed his warm lips.Darren immediately tightened his arms around her, turning his passiveness into action, and deepening the kiss. The two were clearly in love, but Darren never took the initiative in intimate gestures. It was always Caroline who made the first move.In Darren’s eyes, Caroline

Among the younger generation of the Fisher family, very few could work at the headquarters of Fisher Enterprise. Most of them worked in subsidiaries, no different from ordinary workers.They worked themselves to the bone for a monthly salary of four to five thousand dollars as being part of the Fisher family did not guarantee them high-paying jobs. Those without ability and who were lazy could not even get into the subsidiaries.When Belinda was alive, she had made it clear that the Fisher family’s companies would not support idle people. Those who wanted to slack off and collect a paycheck for doing nothing were dreaming!The biggest benefit of being part of the family was that during holidays, they could receive gifts and a generous bonus from Fisher Enterprise.These holiday gifts and bonuses were distributed uniformly, regardless of age or seniority. Everyone received the same amount—a newborn baby received the same as an eighty-year-old elder.After some thought, Liberty said
