Chapter 585

Author: Gu Lingfei
After hanging up the phone, Zachary instructed Jim, “Protect the missus while I’m away during this period.”

“Don’t worry, Mr. Zachary. We’ll protect the missus well.”

Serenity was skilled in the arts of self-defense, so it was easy peasy to protect her.

Double the bonus!

Jim was happy just thinking about it.

This was the benefit of building connections with Serenity!

“If Serenity needs help or encounters difficulties, tell Nana. She’ll arrange everything properly. Alternatively, you can tell Callum as well.”

“Don’t worry, Mr. Zachary. If the missus faces any problems, Old Mrs. York will definitely hear about it.”

Grandma May was seemingly omnipotent. Her grandsons could not hold a candle to her.

Zachary thought of his nana’s capability and did not speak again.

What surprised him was that for the first time in a while, he saw Elisa standing at the entrance of the company again.

She was leaning on her red sports car, watching his team slowly approaching.

The driver remarked,

    Elisa smiled and raised her hand to wipe away the tears from the corner of her eyes. She looked away and stared into the distance for a while before turning back. She then faced Zachary with a solemn expression, “Zachary, after hearing those words from you, I think it’s all worth it. My infatuation with you over the years was not in vain.”She graciously extended her hand toward Zachary, who mirrored her action in the same manner, and they shook hands.“Zachary, I wish you and your wife a long life of happiness.”“Thank you, Ms. Stone.”“I hope I will have the honor of attending your wedding in the future.”Zachary retracted his hand and said warmly, “When my wife and I have chosen a date to hold a wedding, I’ll definitely send an invitation to Mr. Stone and you.”“I’ll be waiting for your invitation, then.”Elisa smiled. “You must be a busy man. I won’t take up more of your precious time than I already have. Goodbye, Zachary.”She waved at him before turning back toward her sp

    “Yes, my Elisa has her pride. It’s not like no one else wants to marry my daughter.”Audrey still knew her daughter best.If Elisa said she would give up, then she would stay true to her words.The sound of a car was heard coming from outside.Alice stood up and while walking out of the house, she said, “That must be Elisa.”There was her sister-in-law in sight.Elisa got out of the car and walked toward her sister-in-law, showing a bright smile. “Alice, Mom is still at home, right?”Alice’s heart ached when she saw her sister-in-law smiling so radiantly. She would rather Elisa cry her heart out than smile like that. Heavens knew it only meant that the brighter Elisa smiled, the deeper the pain in her heart.She sighed.It was painful enough to fall in love with a man she should not fall in love with, and it was even more painful to know that the man had just gotten married.“Mom is still at home. Elisa, are you okay?”“Do I look like I’m not okay? Don’t worry, Alice. I’m gr

    Serenity said with a smile, “Elisa mentioned that Mr. Bucham is from a family that deals with intelligence. If you get together with him, you’ll have first-hand accounts of all sorts of drama. You like it when it’s lively, so I feel like he’s born for you. You two are a great match.”Jasmine was speechless.Was she getting a boyfriend to get married with or to gossip?“You mentioned that your sister’s ex-mother-in-law called you again?”Jasmine hurriedly changed the topic.She did not want her best friend to gossip about her.“My sister divorced that scumbag and moved out, so they naturally couldn’t wait to move in. However, they can only rent a house, stay in a hotel, or go back home now. With my knowledge of their family, they would definitely stay in the city for the New Year’s instead of going home.”The Brown family must have spread the word in their hometown that the family would be going to the city for New Year’s.Thus, even if there was no house to live in, the family

    ”Old Mr. Hunt, you clearly received sixty thousand from me. I gave it to you in cash. That was my private funds which I saved for a long time. You took the money and said you would convince Serenity, but you failed. My son still ended up divorcing Liberty.“Please hurry up and return the money to me, or I’ll call the police.”When the old man refused to admit he took the money, Olivia was so angry that her face turned scarlet.Old Mr. Hunt said with a cold face, “If you want to call the police, then be my guest. I’m not afraid. I already said that I didn’t take your money, but so what if I did? Take it as making up for the betrothal gift that you failed to give us when your son married my granddaughter.“You’re having it easy by paying just tens of thousands for the betrothal gift. You have a daughter yourself too. When your daughter got married, were you willing to give your daughter away to your son-in-law’s family without receiving a single penny in return?”Olivia said furious

    Several luxury cars came from far, passed by the main entrance of Wiltspoon School, and stopped in front of Serenity’s bookstore.Grandma May, who was chatting with Mr. Charles from next door, hurriedly turned away when she saw the luxury cars. She deliberately hung her head low, afraid that the people who got down from the cars would see her.“Serenity, Serenity.”When Elisa got out of the car, she shouted Serenity’s name while jogging into the store.She did not notice the old lady sitting in front of the store next door.Darrell got out of the car, holding a crying Audrey, and followed their daughter into the store. Alice ordered the bodyguards to guard the entrance before she turned around and entered the store as well.Serenity was halfway through weaving an eagle with its wings spread when she heard Elisa’s cry. She stopped her movements and looked up at Elisa.“Elisa, you’re here. Have you eaten? If you haven’t...”Then, she saw Audrey, who was accompanied by Darrell nex

    As Mr. Stone and his daughter were busy tending to Mrs. Stone, only then Alice remembered to bring back the DNA report. Alice handed the DNA test results to Serenity so that the latter could have a look herself.After reading the outcome, Serenity fell silent for a while before putting the paper on the table. “You’re my niece, Serenity. Call me Aunt Audrey.” Although fate had separated her from her sister, it was sort of a consolation for Mrs. Stone to have found two nieces in return. Holding Serenity’s hand, Mrs. Stone asked the girl for a more intimate form of address. “Where’s Liberty and Sonny?” Her other niece was not forgotten. “My sister won’t be here for lunch. She’ll be here once she gets off work at half-past five in the evening.” Serenity explained while looking at Jasmine. With Jasmine carrying Sonny over, Serenity took her nephew from her best friend. “Ma’am…” Mrs. Stone interrupted Serenity mid-sentence. “It’s Aunt Audrey to you, Seren. I’ve been drea

    Elisa only discovered later that she missed out on great fun. She took a dig at Jasmine and Serenity. Jasmine had mentioned and warned Serenity about including Elisa, but Serenity did not want to expose the young heiress to such crudeness. Sure, Elisa was born into privilege, but she was Elisa Stone, a well-known unreasonable and rude brat in Wiltspoon’s higher society. No crudeness could scare her. In fact, Elisa would be the sh*t-stirrer if people caught her at the wrong time. “My sister got what she was owed. It was just the renovation costs that the Browns refused to return. So, my sister called me to bring some men and trashed the furnishings.” Mrs. Stone commended the act. “That’s the way to do it. Why should the Browns have it easy?” She added regrettably, “I’d have brought a bunch of people and demanded the money back from the Browns as your family member had I known.” It dawned on Serenity that Elisa got her personality from her mother. “Seren, come home with

  • Married at First Sight   Chapter 593

    This was the mindset of the older generation. They believed the inheritance should stay in the family by leaving them to the sons and grandsons as daughters would only grow up to marry into another family. For families without a direct descendant to bequeath the inheritance to, fellow townspeople would be eyeing the property. They would keep the wealth in the town. Many were unwilling to leave their hard-earned assets to someone who did not carry the family name. Hence, they would try to bring a son into the family. “Are you talking about John Hunt by chance?” John’s name rang a bell as he was once a senior executive at one of the Stones’ subsidiaries. John made a million dollars annually. For John to earn a huge chunk of change from the Stones, to push around her nieces, and to take over her sister’s property, Mrs. Stone could not say he left a good impression. She needed to get Clive to go hard on John so the latter would not be able to even make a living out of begging

    “I don’t want to. I want to be with Dunc.”Sonny did not want his grandmother to carry him. He turned to Olivia and said, “Aunt Lili treated me when I was sick and she said my throat got infected because I ate fried chicken, and that’s why I had a fever. She told me not to eat fried chicken anymore.“Aunt Ser also said that when I feel better, she’ll fry it for me herself. It’s safer than the fried chicken bought from outside, but I still can only eat a little bit, not too much.“Grandmom, I don’t want to eat fast food bought from outside anymore. You guys shouldn’t blame Dunc. He’s really good to me and if you scold him, I won’t like you anymore.”Sonny did not really have any affection for his grandparents. They had always taken his cousin Lucas’s side. Whatever toys he had or food he liked, Olivia would take them away to give to Lucas. He did not like Lucas, and he did not like Grandmom either. Even though his grandparents were nicer to him now, Sonny still spent very little t

    Olivia immediately retracted her hand when she saw Duncan’s cold glance. Not daring to forcefully take Sonny from him, she awkwardly smiled and said to Duncan, “Mr. Lewis, can we have a word with Sonny?”“You can ask Sonny. If he’s happy to, that’s fine,” Duncan said coldly, giving Luke’s bag a glance before addressing both of them. “Mr. and Mrs. Brown, Sonny had a fever yesterday, which the doctor said was due to a throat infection. You two took him to eat a lot of fried chicken and fries that day, which caused the infection.“Today, you brought him more fast food. If Sonny eats that, he might have a fever again. Please try to avoid giving him such heavy foods in the future.”Olivia immediately became anxious, reaching out to touch Sonny’s forehead. “Has Sonny recovered from the fever? Are you still feeling unwell? Why didn’t you take a day off from preschool?“It’s fine to do that, you know. There’s no need to rush back to school. Plus, Sonny doesn’t eat much. We did take him to

    “I don’t understand what Liberty is thinking, leaving Sonny in Wiltspoon. When she got Sonny’s custody, she should have taken him with her,” Olivia muttered.She really wanted her son to file another lawsuit and regain custody of Sonny, but out of consideration for Sonny’s future, she could not do that. Plus, her son would not listen to her anyway.“Liberty went to Jensburg. She’s probably still dealing with a lot of trouble over there and we don’t understand the situation. If she could, she would have taken Sonny with her. She values Sonny’s education a lot, and Sonny has been well-educated under her care,” Luke spoke more objectively.Although he did not like Duncan, he could see that Duncan really cared for Sonny. Sonny was very attached to Serenity because she had raised him. That was natural, and it probably had nothing to do with whether Duncan was a good stepfather or not. Luke did not say this out loud to avoid being scolded by his wife for siding with Duncan.“Here comes

    Moreover, Patrick was still alive, and he had been Tiara’s assistant. Plus, the crime of Belinda killing her sisters to rise to power had been exposed to the world and no matter how one thought about it, it was impossible for Belinda's children to take over the position.“Dad, I just can’t accept it! I just don’t agree! Even if I can’t get the position of the head of the family, Liberty can forget about taking away our positions in Fisher Enterprise!“And if Caroline doesn’t divide the huge fortune left by Mom with us, she can forget about taking it all. If worse comes to worst, I’ll go down with her. If I die, my children can inherit Mom’s fortune, but Caroline’s unmarried and childless! She stands to lose the most if she dies.”Adrian stood up and turned to leave once he finished speaking. It was clear he did not want to continue the conversation with his father and did not want to listen to his advice.Justin and Jason looked at each other, then at their father, who was tremblin

    The older generation of the Fisher family had indeed accepted the gifts sent by the Clark brothers. They felt that they had been mistreated by Belinda, so they viewed the benefits given by Belinda’s sons as compensation from her. However, they had not agreed to do what the Clark brothers wanted—to solicit their support. Without concrete evidence, what could the Clark brothers do to them? Besides, it was quite normal for juniors to give their elders gifts during the holiday season, was it not?Hunter could not help but slap his son’s arm. He scolded, “How many times have I told you, and you still won’t listen? My words just go in one ear and out the other.“Though you lot and Caroline are siblings, you’re still Clarks, not Fishers. The Fisher family’s rules have been in place for over a hundred years and won’t change just because of you. If they could change, it would have happened long ago. Do you really think it would have taken this long?“Those old fogies are from the Fisher fa

    At the sound of a car, Hunter, who was sitting in the yard basking in the sun, instructed the helper who was taking care of him, “Go outside and see if the young master is back.”The helper went out. Soon, Hunter saw his three sons walking toward him one after another.Seeing this, Hunter could not help but furrowed his brow, feeling a headache coming on as he pinched the space between his brows. He suddenly understood why his late wife would become so impatient and frustrated with their sons—they were really troublesome.He had tried to reason with them, advising them to preserve their strength, to stop hoping to stay on at Fisher Enterprise, and to return here where they could still live well, but they simply refused to listen.When they accompanied him back to Ashford during Christmas, he thought they had come to their senses, but when the new year started and Fisher Enterprise resumed operations, they eagerly hurried back.It made Hunter so angry that he scolded them at home f

    “I’ll still try my best to convince them to leave. One of these days, I’ll go meet my father and my two sisters-in-law, and get them to try to persuade my brothers. If they still refuse to listen, then there’s nothing else I can do.”“You should do whatever you think is right. I’ll leave them alone as long as they don’t appear before me.”It was not that Caroline did not care about her brothers; it was them who did not value the relationship. What else could she do? Liberty said, “I’m not the kind of person who would harm the innocent. As long as they stay honest and don’t get involved in any schemes or underhanded tactics, and leave Jensburg for the Clark hometown, I’ll only take half of what they currently have.” She would leave half of the assets for Adrian and the others. They would not starve, and this way, she was still showing Caroline some respect.“They won’t give up easily. They’ll still try to make trouble. You taking only half of their assets is already showing mer

    Duncan had been so insistent on marrying no one but Liberty that his current temporary cripple was the result of his conflict with his parents. He had sacrificed his legs in exchange for their consent, but who knew whether his parents truly accepted Liberty or were just pretending to?“They’re very good to me, and they’ve accepted Sonny. It’s not that they don’t want to take care of him—, it’s Sonny who wants to stay with Seren.” Liberty explained, "My in-laws tried to persuade Sonny to stay with them for several days, but they didn’t manage to.“Ever since Sonny was born, it’s mostly been Seren looking after him. During the most difficult times, Seren helped me a lot too, so when I’m not home, Sonny prefers to be with her. No matter how good others are to him, he still chooses to stay with her.”Duncan loved Sonny like his own child, but if Liberty was not in Wiltspoon, Sonny would not want to stay with Duncan. He preferred to stay with his aunt.“That’s good, then.”As long as

    Then there was her mother, who had committed countless evil deeds. It was likely that Liberty and the others would not pay respects to Belinda, as she was an enemy of Liberty’s branch of the family. No matter how magnanimous Liberty was, she would not go as far as to visit the grave of her enemy. Therefore, Caroline needed to come back herself to pay respects to her mother, to ensure that her mother’s grave would not be neglected. This was her duty as a daughter. Her mother had committed many sins, but she was still her mother.“Anyway, I’ll also be back to attend your wedding to Mr. Lewis. Technically, I’m still your elder.”Caroline smiled as she extended her belated blessings. “Liberty, I wish you and Mr. Lewis a lifetime of happiness. Mr. Lewis loves you dearly. You two will definitely be very happy together.”Duncan was such an outstanding person in his own right but was willing to marry into the Fisher family for Liberty. This truly broke the previous streak of the matri
