Married at First Sight Chapter 630
“I’m still sober. Another couple of drinks won’t make me drunk.” “You should quit while you’re at it.“We came here to have a drink or two. Too much is not good for you.” Serenity stared at her eerily. Jasmine fell silent for a moment before getting up to leave. She reminded her brother to watch Serenity. A while later, Jasmine returned with a pen, papers, and a glass of wine in hand. “This is your last drink. I asked for a few sheets of paper for you to draw on.” “Jas, Serenity’s drunk. Can she still draw?” Serenity claimed that she was sober but the truth was, she was drunk. Instead of answering his brother’s question, Jasmine handed the pen and papers to Serenity. Serenity took the stuff and started drawing on the paper without taking the drink. First, she drew a ball. Drake was speechless. It was not hard to draw a circle in a drunken state. Drake believed it was a no-brainer. Serenity then drew a lake with way too many wavy lines along the shore. Following

“Is that you, Ms. Sox?” a voice interrupted the trio. Jasmine and her brother turned their heads toward the source of the voice. Serenity calmly drank her wine as though she did not see Josh. “Mr. Bucham?” Jasmine was surprised to find Josh here. Josh explained, “I got together with a few buddies to let loose here since it’s the weekend. I wasn’t expecting to see you here, Ms. Sox.“Do you mind if I sit here?” Jasmine replied with a smile, “Well, you already sat down. Are you waiting for your friends?” She saw that he was alone. Josh sat down and said hello to Serenity. Serenity merely bobbed her head as an acknowledgment to his greeting. “My friends have left.” Looking at the drawing, Josh asked Jasmine, “Who drew this? Can I have a closer look?” With Jasmine’s eyes turning to her best friend, Josh got an idea of the artist behind the artwork. Serenity went on drinking without a word. Taking it as a no, Josh did not pick the drawing up, but he was still able to

“Seren.” Jasmine immediately went to help Serenity up. “I can still drink…” Despite being held up, Serenity was mumbling away about having more drinks. Looking at the state Serenity was in, Josh did not feel right to pull out his phone and take a video of her. Nevertheless, there was security surveillance in the place. He could pull the security footage and show it to Zachary. Zachary married a wonderful wife but could do better at cherishing her. They often fought and got into silent wars while the people around him were dragged into the crossfire. “You’re drunk, Serenity. I’ll take you home.” Jasmine got up and said to Josh apologetically, “Serenity had too much to drink, Mr. Buchan. I’m going to take her home now.” “I don’t think you can drive since you had something to drink too. I didn’t drink, so I can drive you home.” As Josh came here for Jasmine, he did not have a drop of alcohol. He was looking for a chance to get Jasmine in his car. “Thank you, Mr. Bucha
Married at First Sight Chapter 633
Zachary clutched the paper without a word, but judging by the bantering look on Josh’s face, he could guess the drawing had something to do with him. He had seen Serenity’s artwork before. Serenity would often draw samples for her crafts and she was a good artist. “Zac…hary…” Nestling against Zachary’s chest, Serenity mumbled. Zachary carefully carried her into the car and sat her down at the backseat. He then sat next to her and propped her body against his before she slipped down from her seat. “I’m here.” He breathed a husky voice into her ear, “I’m here, Seren.” Serenity had no idea. She was so wasted that she could not open her eyes. Held tightly in Zachary’s embrace, Serenity drifted between sleep and mumbles. Sometimes, she could voice her strong opinion about Zachary, but other times, it was hard to catch what she was saying as she murmured under her breath. Jasmine and her brother stood outside the bar and watched as the sedan drove off. “Who was that man

Josh left quite a good impression on Drake. Jasmine suspected Drake would sell her off if the boys kept in touch behind her back. Josh pulled out his phone with a smile plastered on his face. “That’s very thoughtful of you, Drake. Let’s exchange numbers. I think we hit it off, Drake. Let’s have dinner sometime.” Drake happily whipped out his phone and exchanged contacts before saying, “Well, we should get going, Mr. Bucham.” “See you. I’ll treat you to dinner next time.” “Sure thing.” Drake was overjoyed but stopped short following the glare from his sister. He rubbed his nose and got into the car straight away. Standing there, Josh watched as the siblings took off. Once afar, Jasmine told her brother off, “Do you know who Josh is? Why did you act all friendly and exchange numbers?” “I don’t care who he is. All that matters is that he was on a blind date with you and he’s interested in you.” Jasmine was speechless. “Do you want me to kick you out of the house?” “I d
Married at First Sight Chapter 635
Back at Brynfield, Zachary gently carried Serenity out of the car. “Mr. Zachary, Mrs. Lane is staying with the missus’s sister,” said Jim. Zachary huskily replied, “I don’t need Mrs. Lane. I can take care of her.” He carried Serenity into the building. Jim waited until Mr. Zachary was inside the building before driving away. Zachary took notice of his loafers at the front of their house. His gaze deepened as his mind harked back to when they got married. She did the same thing to send a message that there was a man in the house. It was a safety precaution. Although Serenity was a good fighter, it was better to be safe than sorry. “Stand here, Seren. I need to grab the keys and open the door.” Zachary put Serenity down, but she was too drunk to stand still. She would collapse to the ground the moment he let go. Zachary immediately grabbed ahold of her. Putting his arms around her waist, Zachary guided Serenity to lean on his shoulder. He tried to feel the keys with his

That girl had always said she did not want to marry up but in reality, her family was rich too.It was just that the Sox family was low-key and pragmatic. They lived ordinary lives like ordinary people despite their wealth.“My parents are asleep, so I won’t invite you in, Mr. Bucham.”Josh smiled. “It’s late, and I didn’t bring a gift either, so I won’t go inside and disturb your parents. I’ll visit them another day when I come bearing a generous gift.” Jasmine said in her heart, ‘You’ve only just given me a bouquet of flowers and started pursuing me, but you already want to meet my parents.’“Mr. York came back in a hurry. Will he need to continue his business trip tomorrow?” Jasmine asked suddenly.Josh thought about it and said, “I think he still has to rush over tomorrow. After all, he’s responsible for the matters there. If something goes wrong, he has to go over to deal with it.”“That’s quite tiring for him.”“It’s tiring, but he’s willing to be a little tired for his

After slipping out, Josh said to himself, “He’s a clean freak, but he didn’t push her away when she barfed on him. How much love does he have for her to tolerate that?”There was nothing more to say.Josh was still a big fan of his boss’s wife. He admired her to the core.In the house, Zachary first took off his jacket and threw it on the ground before doing the same for Serenity.He would clean them up later.First, he had to carry this drunk little woman back to their room.Serenity threw up once and might be feeling soberer or slightly more comfortable as her mouth started to mutter.“Zachary...”She suddenly called out Zachary’s name loudly.“I’m here,” Zachary answered softly. He carried her into his room and instantly noticed that it was different.Everything that belonged to her was gone.Did she... move back to her room in a fit of rage?Zachary stood at the door of his room in silence for a few minutes before finally deciding to carry Serenity back to her room.

Despite this, lying in bed and enduring the pain, Caroline could not help but start to cry, feeling deeply wronged.When Darren came in and saw her crying, he walked over, sat on the edge of the bed, and gently wiped her tears with a tissue.“They’re not worth your tears,” he said, his heart aching for her.Caroline sat up and buried herself in his arms. “Darren, you’re all I have now.”Darren held her tightly, his voice filled with tenderness. “I’ll always be by your side, no matter what happens, Ms. Caroline. Even if the sky falls, I’ll hold it up for you.“If you’re really hurting and need to cry, then cry. Let it all out.”It would also help her sever ties with the past and the family bonds that had caused her so much pain.Caroline did cry—a long, cathartic cry. It would be the last time. From now on, she and the Clarks would go their separate ways.Meanwhile, Hunter went to Justin’s house and called Jason’s wife, Ellie, over. He said to his two daughters-in-law, “By no

After a moment of silence, Hunter repeated the same line. “But you didn’t die, did you? You only got a little hurt, and it’s not even serious.”Caroline almost laughed in anger at this.Sure, she had not died. She had only been injured. Did that erase the fact that her brothers had tried to kill her, though?She retorted, “Dad, if I had tried to kill your three sons, but they didn’t die and only got a little hurt, would you say the same thing to them? Would you tell them it’s just a family dispute, ask them to forgive me, not to sue me, and not to send me to jail?”Hunter instinctively replied, "If you had the intent to kill, how could I let you continue down that path? Of course, I’d have to let you serve a few years in prison…“Carol, I’m old, really old. I only have the boys to rely on in my old age. Are you trying to leave me with no one to depend on in my later years?”Caroline said coldly, “I’ll provide for your living expenses. I’ll make sure you don’t starve. You can even

Darren did not let go even after being struck.Seeing Darren get hit, Caroline’s expression darkened. She coldly said to her father, “Dad, if you really want to kneel, go kneel at the hospital entrance and shout at the top of your lungs that your daughter is unfilial.“Tell everyone that your sons tried to kill your daughter, and your daughter refuses to forgive them, so you’re kneeling there to force her to forgive your sons.“Let’s see if I give in.”Hunter stopped struggling. After slapping Darren, he felt a pang of fear. He was afraid Caroline might retaliate by slapping him to avenge Darren. Fortunately, while Caroline was furious, she did not lay a hand on him.He began to cry. “Carol…” He wept bitterly.Darren released him, and Hunter sat on the sofa, sobbing, “Carol, I’m old. I have no income, my parents are long gone, and your mother is no longer here. I only have your three brothers to rely on.“If you send all three of them to prison, what will happen to me? Who w

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
