Married at First Sight Chapter 2382
“Caroline, I hope you can bring our family to greater heights and back to its prime. That way, you will be respected instead of receiving their faux courtesy. For all we know, they could be badmouthing us behind our backs.”After a moment of silence, Caroline said, “Mom, even you couldn’t lead the family back to what it was before after all these years. I can’t guarantee that I’ll be able to do it. Fisher Enterprise has much room for improvement in various aspects. However, those in charge of the respective departments are my brothers and children of other elders in the family.”Caroline had not gained enough foothold in the company, so there was nothing she could do to those people yet. “With them around, it’ll be difficult for the company to return to its peak. They’re only thinking about filling their own pockets instead of putting the company before themselves.”It was all because of Belinda. Although she obeyed the family tradition of handing down the position of matriarch to

After all, Wildridge Manor belonged to the Yorks; not just anyone can stay there. Belinda stared at Caroline. If Caroline had been by her side all this while, she would have become more outstanding than she was now. Heck, she could have been chosen by Old Mrs. York to be the York family’s granddaughter-in-law. “You’re still young. There’ll be many opportunities for you in the future. I’m old. I might not even go to Wiltspoon anymore after this.”Caroline smiled. “You’re right. Since you’re heading there to relax, why don’t you bring Dad along? He can’t do much, but he can accompany you and make you happy.”Belinda chided Caroline, “How can you talk about your father that way? No matter how incompetent, he’s the reason you’re even born.”Caroline pouted. “It’s a fact. You should’ve looked for a better man back then.”“A capable man would’ve refused to be a live-in son-in-law for our family. It’s fine if you dislike the man Hunter brought last time. I can introduce someone else t

Things would have been different if so. Belinda only had one option now—Caroline. Moments later, Celine barged in. Belinda frowned upon seeing her adopted daughter while she was reminiscing about her past. Frustration overtook her expression, and she said, “How many times have I told you to knock before entering? You never listen.”The daughter she had spent much effort raising did not even have basic etiquette. She had spoiled Celine rotten. Belinda was glad that Celine was not her biological daughter. Otherwise, she would have been angered to death upon seeing the successor she spent over two decades nurturing being such a failure.”“Sorry, Mom. I forgot.”Celine immediately went out and closed the door. Then, she knocked on the door again and only entered after obtaining Belinda’s permission. She sat opposite Belinda. “I want to ask you something, Mom. Did our family receive the York family’s invitation?”Since Celine could not attend the wedding as Hayden’s partner,

“You look great. My daughter is always beautiful,”“Mom, I need new clothes to go with this new necklace.”Belinda smiled. “You have plenty of new clothing in your dressing room. Some of those have never been worn.”That being said, she still handed a card to Celine and said, “You can buy whatever you want. Cheer up.”Celine perked up upon receiving the card.“Thanks, Mom. You’re the best.”“You grew up by my side. Even if we’re not blood-related, I’ve always treated you as my own. Even Caroline doesn’t get such good treatment from me.”“But you allowed Caroline to chase me out of the company and stopped me from returning to work.”Belinda’s smile disappeared. She said strictly, “Celine, you should be grateful that I allowed you to keep Fisher as your last name instead of reverting it to your father’s. Stop desiring more. Don’t forget that if it weren’t for your father’s ambitions, Caroline wouldn’t have grown up in a farming village.“You stole everything that should’ve belon

Celine alighted the car and walked toward her mother. She pushed her and scolded, “Are you crazy? Even if you wish to die, don’t do it under my car and dirty it.“If you were to die because I couldn’t hit the brakes in time, what would people say about me? They’ll say I look down on the poor, and that I would rather stay with my adoptive mother than my birth mother for that very reason.”The woman’s gaze was fixed on Celine. She was no different from any other mothers who would never not miss their child.Carmen had always known that her daughter was the Fisher family’s successor. However, the truth was exposed just when she thought her husband’s scheme would succeed. Although Carmen was disappointed, her daughter could finally return to her side. With the education and training Celine had received from the Fishers, her daughter could bring their family out of poverty. Unfortunately, Celine refused to return while Caroline went back to the Fishers too. It was as if Carmen ha

Celine said coldly, “Spend this money on nicer clothes. Stop dressing up like an old-fashioned farmer. Oh, but you’re already one. Take the money and get lost. Never, ever, appear before me again.”After saying her piece, Celine walked to her car and drove off. Carmen was left crying on the street. Her biological daughter hated her. She knew she could not compare to Belinda Fisher. It was all that woman’s fault for snatching her daughter away. While crying, Carmen picked up the cash and started counting it on the spot. Her tears gradually stopped flowing as she counted the money. Celine often had about ten thousand dollars in cash inside her wallet. With a casual throw, Carmen obtained quite a lot of money. As a farmer’s wife, it was a cash windfall. She thought of Caroline, who had grown up in her home. The same girl had already become Belinda’s successor and snatched everything that was supposed to be inherited by Celine. Carmen resented Caroline for that. She go

Quinn was unaware she was Julian’s destined woman, the only one he was attracted to, and nobody else.“I just arrived, Ms. Crawford,” replied Julian with a smile. Seeing his hands full, Quinn said, “You could’ve come without bringing anything along.”“It’s my first time meeting my coach. It’s only appropriate to prepare some gifts. I can’t possibly come empty-handed.”Quinn smiled. “Are you so confident my dad will accept you as his student? Let’s go. My house is nearby. You can have a meal at my house and meet my dad. We can see if he’s willing to take you in.”“Sounds great.”Quinn led Julian to her house. “Didn’t you say you would be Mr. York’s groomsman? Why are you here?” she asked while she took some of the load Julian was carrying.She had just returned from Wiltspoon two days ago. Looking at the stuff he brought, she told him, “You bought so many expensive gifts. It must’ve cost a lot.”The cigarettes, alcohol, and supplements Julian bought were from well-known bra

Quinn brought Julian to her house. It was not far from Power Fitness, and she met many acquaintances along the way. They saw Quinn walking beside a handsome man who was holding lots of stuff. They naturally assumed that Julian was Quinn’s boyfriend. “Is this your boyfriend, Ms. Crawford? He’s handsome.”“Is he your boyfriend, Quinn? To think your parents were worried you couldn’t get married. I told them not to worry because there’s no way you can’t get married with your looks.”“Your parents will be happy that you’re bringing a man home. They won’t have to worry anymore.”The parents of Quinn’s students or her neighbors would greet her and ask about her and Julian’s relationship. Quinn quickly explained to one of her neighbors, “This is Mr. Bucham. He’s here to learn martial arts from my dad.”Mrs. Patterson said, “Oh, I thought he was your boyfriend.”After glancing at Julian, she pulled Quinn aside and whispered, “I recognize all of your father’s students, Quinn, but this

Hunter could not fall asleep before receiving an update. He honestly did not like Caroline. He despised her from the bottom of his heart. Nevertheless, he still felt a hint of sadness when his sons were going to kill her. After all, she was his daughter with his blood running in her. “Carol…”Hunter murmured, “You should blame yourself. Your brothers couldn’t tolerate you anymore because you went overboard. You brought this upon yourself.“When everything’s over, I’ll place flowers on your and Belinda’s graves.“I hope you’re doing well in the afterlife. Just don’t come to me in my dreams too often.“I’m old and easily frightened. I might have a mental breakdown if you torture me in my dreams.”“What did you say, Mr. Clark?” Hunter’s housekeeper asked. Hunter immediately picked up his spoon. He replied, “I was sending my son a voice message. I wasn’t talking to you. You can go on with your work.”The housekeeper nodded. She looked from the entrance of the dining area

“Okay. You can go anywhere you want. I’ll always be with you.”Darren added, “No matter what you do or where you go in the future, Ms. Caroline, you can never send me away. You can’t do this again.“It’s too dangerous. Your life is at risk if something happens. It’s not worth doing this for the likes of those people.”The Clark brothers could have really killed Caroline. “This won’t happen again. It’ll just be this once. They’re not worth the risk. Let’s just consider this as paying off my debt of gratitude toward my mom for giving birth to me and for the love she had for me in the end.”Caroline added, “I broke all ties with my family last night.“Have you sent the money to my dad?“This will be a one-off payment. We probably won’t be in contact anymore.”After speaking, Caroline felt depressed. She truly did not have much luck when it came to family.“I’ve prepared the money. I’ll meet Mr. Clark a few days later after your injury gets better.”Darren wanted Caroline to f

Although Jacob and Michael were older than her, Caroline fought back valiantly and threw anything she could reach at them. She even chased after them around town with a billhook before. Jacob and Michael were pale from fear. When Carmen tried to avenge her sons, Caroline did not hesitate to swing the billhook at her too. Her reckless resistance shocked the Dott family. From then onward, they no longer dared to hit her. Even so, Caroline had to live with them. Naturally, she was still abused. She could never eat and sleep well. She was not given nice clothes either. Marc Dott, who was responsible for changing her life, never stopped his family or defended her even once. Caroline despised her adoptive father the most. He ended up dying in prison due to an illness. Caroline knew Belinda had gotten someone to kill him. She did not pity Marc at all and even thought death was too light of a punishment for him. After Caroline returned to the Fisher family, Carmen and h

“I want to touch your face, Darren.”Although Darren was still straight-faced and angry, he bent over so that his face was within her reach. “Look at you. Your face feels as hard as marble.“You shouldn’t let such a handsome face be so stiff. I don’t like seeing you with a straight face. I like it when you’re gentle.”Darren said unhappily, “I’m not a gentle person, Ms. Caroline.”He had received intense training at the center. How could he possibly have a warm personality after going through all that?He simply looked softer when he was in a good mood. Caroline probably found him gentle due to his handsome face and politeness. Despite his words, his expression softened. “Don’t be angry, Darren. I’m fine. I didn’t lose a leg or an arm. My head is still intact. I wasn’t chopped to pieces and fed to the fish.“I even calculated your speed and deliberately let them scratch my arm. I wouldn’t have given them the opportunity to injure me the second time.“It was also their fi

It was possible that the caretakers of the Fisher family cemetery would not even allow her brothers to visit the graves.The Fisher family members harbored deep resentment toward Belinda.“Liberty, don’t worry. I’m not going to die. I don’t feel like I’ve lost out by doing this.”“Shush—enough with the talk about dying early in the morning. We’re all going to live long lives.”Caroline smiled again, “Alright, alright, we’ll all live long lives. Stop looking like the sky is falling. Seeing you like this makes me want to cry.”Liberty scolded her, “Don’t you cry. I’m just heartbroken, so heartbroken. Why didn’t you trust me?”“Liberty, it’s not that I don't trust you. It's that I don't trust my three brothers.”Liberty could not say anything to that.“Ms. Caroline, you must be hungry. I bought you a bowl of plain oats porridge. You have a cold, so you have to eat simple meals for the next few days.”Darren returned with a bowl of oats.He then said to Liberty and her husband, “

Liberty had said that she would not bother with the Clark brothers as long as they kept a low profile or stayed away from the center of Jensburg, not provoking Liberty or trying to seize control of the Fisher family.However, Caroline did not believe her brothers would do nothing.If she did not put them away, they would do everything in their power to stop Liberty from taking over the Fisher family, and in the end, it would lead to the destruction of their family and leave them with absolutely nothing.However, this was a Pyrrhic victory for her.“She just wouldn’t listen and refused to let me get involved,” Liberty said as she sat by the bed, gently touching Caroline's still-swollen face with a heart full of concern.“Mr. Fletcher, you should use ice to help reduce the swelling on her face. It will help her recover faster.”Darren replied, “I’ve been applying ice to her face from time to time. Plus, even Madam Belinda couldn’t change Ms. Caroline’s mind once she made a decision

Caroline had inherited Belinda’s ruthlessness, after all.“I’m heading to the hospital right away.”Hearing that Caroline had been rescued but was now in the emergency room, Liberty could not sleep any longer. She immediately threw off the covers and got out of bed.Duncan quickly followed suit.“Duncan, it’s still dark outside, and it’s cold. You should get some more sleep.” Liberty, out of consideration for her husband's limited mobility and his discomfort with the cold Jensburg spring, wanted Duncan to stay home and rest. She could go to the hospital alone.Duncan said as he changed his clothes, “No, I’ll go with you. I may not be able to walk long distances, but I can manage a short walk.“I’ll get the bodyguards to come with us to the hospital, so you don’t have to worry about taking care of me.”Although Caroline’s injuries were the result of her own plan, Duncan still did not feel comfortable letting Liberty go to the hospital alone.He was afraid something might happe

Meanwhile, in the master bedroom in Fisher Manor, Liberty suddenly woke up after a two-hour sleep.She sat up abruptly. Her movement startled her husband beside her.“What’s wrong? Did you have a nightmare?” Duncan also sat up, turning on the bedroom light, and asked with concern.“I dreamed that Caroline was in trouble. She refused to let me follow her. Her plan was to just get injured, but I’m so afraid her life’s in danger.”Having spent so much time with Caroline, Liberty had come to admire this aunt of hers.If it were not for the grudges of the previous generation, she and Caroline could have become close friends.Even now, the two of them held mutual respect for each other.Among the Fisher family members, she only respected Caroline; even Hayden only respected Caroline.Hayden had even once considered matchmaking Caroline with Hugh. However, Hugh did not like Caroline, and Caroline had no feelings for Hugh either. Caroline admired Hayden, but Hayden was a woman.After

Although they could not take over the Fisher family legacy, their mother was the head of the family, making them the young masters of the household.They had lived a life of luxury since childhood, never experiencing hardship or poverty. They enjoyed a life of indulgence, spending money like it was water, and were flattered and fawned over by others.Suddenly, they fell from the clouds to the cold, hard ground.No one flattered them anymore. No one curried favor with them. When they made mistakes or caused trouble, no one was there to cover for them.Relying on their own abilities, they could not earn much money. They no longer had the glory of spending money freely like they did not even know what money was.Thus, they could not accept it.Even though they had more than ordinary people, they were still unsatisfied.They wanted to return to their former glory, to the days when they were flattered, praised, and fawned over; to have everyone at their beck and call, living a life o
