Married at First Sight Chapter 2321
Belinda provided benefits to his family, but they had always kept a low profile outside due to her authority over them. Hunter also had to be meek in front of his wife, like a maid, and that upset him. He had no choice but to bet all his hope on his daughter. “Cece, I can’t change what your mom has decided. You should go to her. I can’t do anything. Didn’t you hear what Caroline said? I married into your mom’s family. I don’t have any authority.”“Dad.”Hunter said resignedly, “Cece, my hands are tied. You know what status I hold in this family.”Celine pouted. She knew her dad was telling the truth. He had no authority in the Fisher family. In the study room on the second floor, Belinda was already seated behind the table and waiting for Caroline. She said, “Lock the door.”Caroline did as told. “Why did your car break down?” Belinda asked. “It was tampered with.”Belinda leaned against the chair and asked, “Do you suspect anyone?”“I can’t think of anyone besides my d

Belinda would be over the moon if Hayden became her son-in-law. “Mom, Mr. Queen and I are friends. He told me not to fall in love with him and that he would never accept me. If I were to like him as Celine did, I’d get hurt in the end.“We’re better off as friends.”Caroline had a crush on Hayden, experiencing that natural sense of admiration that came with meeting an outstanding individual. Though after Hayden expressed his thoughts honestly, her admiration did not go beyond that. Belinda was silent for a moment before giving a hum. She said, “Mr. Queen doesn’t suit our family. It’s better if you two stay as friends.”Befriending Hayden would benefit Caroline as well. “Did you have someone you liked before you returned to this family?”She was concerned about her daughter’s marriage. “Let me know if you have someone you fancy. You can bring him back and let me meet him. I won’t object if he has a good character. Those who are financially well-off won’t marry into our family.

Belinda’s expression softened. She said, “You don’t have to mind what others say. They don’t want you or Celine to be the next matriarch.“The Fisher family has been around for a century. We’ve been through ups and downs. What else out there that we’ve yet to encounter?“We’ve overshadowed our distant relatives for many years, so of course they’d be dissatisfied and want to move up the hierarchy whenever possible. They must’ve been the ones who spread the rumors too.”Belinda could never tell Caroline that she herself was the one who had caused her sisters' deaths. Those who knew about it were all dead and all evidence was destroyed by her. Thinking about it, did she forget anyone?It had been decades since the incident. She would never admit to her crime if there was no concrete evidence. Her nieces were young back then, so any recollection they had was vague at best. Plus, they were difficult to locate. For decades, she had been keeping an ear to the ground about her nieces

Belinda sighed and said, “She’s indeed different from us, but the multiple DNA tests and results tell us that she’s our daughter.“Caroline’s features do resemble us. It’s just her way of doing things is too soft. She’s too weak for someone with Fisher blood flowing in her veins. I’m getting older, but I don’t know when she’ll be ready to succeed me. Otherwise, I could retire and take care of our grandchildren with you.“I wonder when our daughters-in-law can give us a granddaughter. I hope our first grandchild is a girl. I’ll feel reassured that way. If Carol isn’t capable enough, I can nurture our granddaughter to be the successor while I’m still alive.”Hunter started having ideas upon hearing this. Caroline was a better fit as the matriarch than his granddaughter. However, she did not grow up by his side. Their relationship as a father and daughter was distant.If Caroline were the matriarch, he would have to behave and be cautious.On the other hand, if his granddaughter were

Caroline had no idea what her parents were talking about. She returned to her room and sent a message to Darren to inform him that Belinda found out about her visit to Wiltspoon. Immediately, he replied: [I’m sorry, Ms. Caroline. I was incompetent.]Caroline texted him: [It’s normal that something was discovered since my mom’s assistant was the one investigating. You don’t have to blame yourself. They were just some receipts proving my spending in Wiltspoon. This outcome is good enough.]Darren still felt bad about it and replied: [I made a mistake, Ms. Caroline. Please deduct my salary and bonus for this month.]Knowing his personality, Caroline replied: [I’ll deduct your bonus but not your salary. You still need to survive. I can’t possibly pay for your living expenses, right?]Darren stared at Caroline’s message for a long time before replying: [I accept this punishment.]He did not want Caroline to pay for his expenses. Instead, he wished to become her right-hand man. From

As Grandma May used to say, they rarely had the chance to taste Zachary’s cooking. Only she would dare to request him to cook while the rest would not have the guts to do so.After Serenity joined the family, Zachary became a permanent crew in the kitchen. They got lucky because of her. If they were at Wildridge Manor, Zachary would ensure anything Serenity wished for would be fulfilled to make her happy. He promised he would make every woman envious of Serenity, and he delivered. Zachary entered the kitchen to prepare breakfast.After standing in silence for two minutes, Dylan walked out of the main house to look for Grandma May in the garden. She was dancing to the music played on a speaker instead of exercising. Dylan was speechless. He hated dancing. Once he started working and earned his first salary, he bought a house in a neighborhood near his company. He thought it would be convenient for him to travel to and fro his work but alas, the ladies in the neighborhood w

Dylan’s face twitched. Grandma May returned the drawing to him after taking a look at it.“Nana.”The old lady raised her hand to stop him from talking. She said, “It was your dream. If you have questions, you should be the one looking for answers. What use is there in asking me? I’m not a know-it-all.”With a bitter face, Dylan said, “But you’ve already chosen a wife for me and handed me her picture. I’m going to look for her anytime now, but both she and the woman in my dreams aren’t the same person.“The men of the York family never divorce or have an affair. I don’t want to be the first York to dishonor his wife.”Grandma May still looked uninterested. “I’ve said that it’s your problem. You should investigate it and find the issue. If you’re having those dreams because I’ve chosen someone for you, you should look for her.”“Nana!”Dylan sat beside her and held her arm to whine. “Don’t you love me anymore, Nana? You always say that I’m your favorite. Can you put up with mak

Grandma May did not budge. She said, “Dylan, you can ask Kevin about this and learn from him.”“I’m not running away, Nana. How can I do that when you’re doing all of this for our sake? I have really been having those dreams for some time now, and they have all been about the woman in my drawing.”He could swear that he was telling the truth. The dreams were real while wanting his nana to let him off the hook was also true. “Let me reiterate. I’ve done lots of research before picking someone and finally deciding on your future wife because she matches you. You’ve never met her nor tried to understand her. How could you be sure she’s not suitable for you?“Why not do it this way? If you can find the girl in your dreams, you can give up on the lady I’ve chosen for you. I won’t hold it against you.”Dylan said, “How can I find her from a sea of people?”Initially, his plan was to use this matter to convince Grandma May to withdraw her matchmaking for him. This would grant him the

Twenty million dollars!It was the Clark brothers’ turn to exchange glances. They did not expect Jacob and Michael to name such a high price. While they could pay that amount, they did not want to hand the money to Jacob and Michael. After all, it was no longer a small sum to them, given their situation. Adrian was nervous that he would have to fork out the money himself. While he had significantly more assets than an ordinary person, most were fixed assets, and he only had a few tens of millions of savings. Therefore, he was unwilling to pay twenty million dollars out of the blue. After exchanging glances, Adrian said, “Twenty million is too much. We don’t have that much. We may be wealthy people to you, but it’s all fake. We aren’t as rich as you think.“You’re aware of the Fishers family rules—only daughters can be the successors. Sons can’t even take on the Fisher surname, let alone inherit the family assets.“When my mom was alive, she would support us financially in

“If the plan fails, we have a backup plan—hit her bodyguards’ car and force her car to stop. That way, you two can take Caroline away and leave the rest up to us.”Adrian was prepared for various scenarios.If the car accident did not succeed, then they would first eliminate Caroline’s bodyguards. Without them, and with Darren on a business trip, they could easily take down Caroline, who did not know how to fight. After kidnapping her, they would kill and cut her to pieces before throwing her into the sea. No one would be able to find her. If Caroline were dead, the inheritance from Belinda would belong to the Clark brothers. They still could not take over Fisher Enterprise and the Fisher family or do anything to Liberty. However, with Caroline dead, there would be no one to teach the new and inexperienced Liberty. Whether Liberty could hold her ground was an unknown variable. After a discussion between Adrian and his brothers, they set two goals. Firstly, they would kill Car
Chapter 4125
“Caroline will definitely receive retribution for this.”Adrian said with spite, “I shall see how she meets her death. The people in Wiltspoon will kill her sooner or later.“Does she think they’ll treat her well just because she betrayed her family? They despise us. She’s still my parents’ biological daughter. There’s no way she can be spared.”“You’re absolutely right.”The three men kept cursing Caroline throughout their journey. Upon arriving at Adrian’s villa, he parked the car. Jacob and Michael looked around after getting out of the vehicle. They thought Adrian’s place was luxurious. Adrian mentioned it was a small place, but it was already a lavish place to them. It was many times bigger than their house in the countryside. Adrian invited Jacob and Michael into the villa and they followed suit.Jacob whispered to Michael, “The Clark brothers are fighting with Caroline for the inheritance, Michael. They must be up to no good, calling us here.“No matter what request

“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
