Married at First Sight Chapter 41
It was not busy at the shop during weekends. In fact, the shop could be closed due to the lack of business. Yet, Serenity went to the shop anyway. The slow day made it the perfect time to make crafts to sell online. Jasmine was here too. Seeing that Serenity was in the shop, Jasmine asked in surprise, “Seren, what brings you here on a Sunday? You’re usually at the park with your nephew.” “It’s about time to replenish new stock for my online business.” While knitting, Serenity lifted her chin and looked at her best friend. She asked with a smile, “What about you?” “Ugh. I couldn’t stand my mom’s nagging, so I came to hide out here.” “What is it this time?” “She’s not happy that I didn’t find myself a husband at the dinner party that night. Does she think it’s that easy? She really thinks her daughter is a catch, that I’m Miss Universe or something.” Serenity burst out laughing. Jasmine just described most parents in the world. Parents fret over their children’s happy
Married at First Sight Chapter 42
Grandma May was a recipient of Serenity’s copper wire handicrafts as well. She displayed the life-like masterpieces in plain sight all over the house. Although the crafts were not worth much, they were her granddaughter-in-law’s gift from the heart. Visiting guests who had seen these craftworks were impressed by Serenity’s craftsmanship. That was when Grandma May came in with a sales pitch, bringing these people to Serenity’s online store to up her business sales. “Have some water, Grandma May.” Jasmine poured Grandma May a glass of water. “Thank you, Jas. You’re here too.” “Sigh. My mom’s pressuring me to get married, so I came to the shop to enjoy some peace and quiet. She keeps setting me up with guys like I’m some unsalable product. I’m supposed to go on a blind date at XX Coffee House tonight, and I’m begging Seren to come with me.” With a glint flickering in her eyes, Grandma May uttered with a friendly smile, “I can understand where your mom’s coming from. Marriage d

Grandma May said with a smile, “Why can’t you? You’re legally married. Zack isn’t stepping up to the plate. It’s up to you to do so and give me a great-grandchild.” Rosiness crept onto Serenity’s cheeks. “Nana, I’ll be blunt. I just can’t when I stare at your grandson’s straight face.” Nana was speechless.Like his grandfather, Zachary was a no-nonsense and detached man by nature. It took Grandma May years before winning over the heart of Zachary’s grandfather when she first laid eyes on him. “Even if I want to, he’ll freeze me to death before I can get close to him. He gives me the chills.” Nana was at a loss for words. “Don’t worry about Zachary and me, Nana. Things will happen naturally.” Serenity saw their living arrangements as roommates. As if that could ever stop Grandma May from worrying. Since Serenity was Grandma May’s choice for a granddaughter-in-law, Grandma May even went so far as to make the union possible against her son’s and daughter-in-law’s wishes. Gr

Jasmine chuckled in amusement, loving Grandma May’s funny quips. Jasmine had never met Zachary in person but got to know his aloof nature from her best friend. It was a wonder that he was related to Grandma May. Soon, Callum arrived. He was here to bring his gallivanting grandmother home. Nana reminded him to drive a cheaper vehicle. The cheapest car in the house was a BMW used by the housekeeper to get groceries. However, it was worth over a million bucks. Since it was too late to buy one, Callum had to borrow the gardener’s pickup truck. “Serenity, I’m here to take Nana home.” Callum came into the shop and said hello to Serenity. “Drive safe. Nana, please give me a message when you get home,” Serenity urged and gave them the crafts she made today. She gave Callum a copper-wire miniature tree. Callum was glad to accept the gift as he had grown to admire Serenity’s work after seeing them around the house. He believed Serenity’s handicrafts might not be worth a lot, but th

“What do you know?” Grandma May had her reasons. It then hit Callum. He asked with a smile, “Nana, are you putting one over Zachary?” Giving him a side glance, Grandma York murmured, “One more question, and you’re next.” That shut Callum up. Although Callum felt sorry for Zachary, it was best he stayed out of it for his own safety. Better Zachary than him. Grandma May was a child trapped in an adult’s body. Having found her inner child, Grandma May was on the prowl for setting her grandchildren up. Meanwhile, Serenity closed the shop and took the helmet from her best friend to put on. She also took the keys and said, “I’ll do it.” Sitting at the back, Jasmine wrapped her arms around Serenity’s waist. “If only you’re a man, Serenity. I’ll marry you right now, and that would get my mom off my back.” “Hold still! Keep your hands to yourself or I’ll throw you off the bike.” Serenity warned her best friend before starting the engine. Although Serenity often passed by B

“Ms. Sox, don’t leave so soon.” Not done flexing his superiority, Mr. Bill was reluctant to let Jasmine go. “I’m sorry, Mr. Bill. I don’t think we’re a good match. See you never.” Jasmine came clean about her thoughts before dragging Serenity away. They strutted on until Serenity came to a sudden stop. “What’s wrong, Seren?” “My husband.” “What?” Before Jasmine understood the meaning behind Serenity’s words, Zachary had drawn close. His profound eyes were fixated on Serenity as his lips curled into a smirk. Serenity could feel his sarcasm without him saying a word. What was he being sarcastic about? Serenity got her answer when she turned around and caught sight of Mr. Bill on their tail. Serenity explained, “I’m only tagging along my friend, Jasmine’s, date.” She was not in a rush to find the next sugar daddy. Zachary remained without a word. Jasmine got a look at her best friend’s husband at last! The man was a dreamboat! Afraid Zachary might take it the w
Married at First Sight Chapter 47
Serenity had no idea about the interaction between Zachary and Grandma May. It was a surprise running into Zachary at Beans and Cream, but putting two and two together, Serenity figured out why Zachary ended up there. What was the reason behind Nana’s actions? Was it so Zachary would get the wrong idea about her? It was not as if Serenity was on a blind date. It was Jasmine’s date. Even if Zachary saw her… Harking back to the scene at the coffee house, Serenity noticed the tension in Zachary’s face more than ever. Although Serenity tended to be slow at picking up cues, she could tell that Zachary took things the wrong way. Most importantly, Jasmine was at the loo, leaving Serenity with Mr. Bill by herself. It was a good thing Jasmine emerged from the loo right after. Her timely clarification loosened the tension on his clenched jaw. Serenity was clueless as to why Nana would do such a thing. She saved Nana’s life, but she expected nothing in return. It was Nana who remained
Married at First Sight Chapter 48
The video sent by Nana suddenly came to Zachary’s mind. Serenity was breathtaking when she was focused on making her crafts. Still denying that fact, Zachary watched the video multiple times nonetheless. He had to admit that he was captivated by the charm exuded by a confident woman at work. It was indeed eye-catching. It was said that women with confidence were the prettiest. All he saw was confidence in Serenity. She was a strong and independent woman. “I’ve never known and will never know what jealousy is… “Oh, you’re up?” Zachary was caught off guard by Serenity’s sudden presence in the living room as she emerged from the balcony. While still on the line, Callum replied, “I’m going to bed soon, but I thought of giving you a call before I turn in for the night.” Zachary terminated the call. Callum was speechless. “I dozed off on the swing. Your talking woke me up.” Wincing his face, Zachary told her off, “The night breeze can be freezing. Careful not to catch a

This was the main reason he insisted on his daily morning runs. Austin did not have much time alone with Isabella because she was always busy. She left for work early and came back late too. He could only see her during mealtimes, but even then, she only had a short time to eat. After finishing her meal, she would try to squeeze in a bit of rest. Austin did not want to disturb her rest, so the only time they could have some quiet moments together and chat was during their morning runs. Fortunately, back in Wiltspoon, he had already gotten into the habit of going for a morning run. “Good morning, Ms. Isabella.”As Isabella approached, Austin smiled and greeted her. Isabella, a bit tired after running for a while, stopped when she saw Austin. She walked over to him and smiled. “Good morning.” Isabella already had a good impression of Austin when she learned that he was a member of the York family, the wealthiest family in Wiltspoon. Now, knowing more about him, her attitud

Zachary had told him that the old pervert from the Longbottom family wanted to take over the O'Connors’ family business and turn it into his own private property because the pervert did not have actual inheritance rights to the Longbottom family headship, nor did he have the family head’s seal, token, or totem.“Dylan, I don’t have much advice for you. As Zachary said, we should trust Nana. As long as you follow what she says, you won’t suffer any losses.”“We’re beyond the age where Nana can make us suffer now anyway.”When they were younger, they often got the short end of the stick, largely because their grandparents would discipline them. They were told that if their abilities and plans were not sufficient, it would make them vulnerable to being taken advantage of.“Dylan, I think I’ll clock in a couple more hours of sleep before my morning run. After that, I have to prepare breakfast for Ms. Isabella.”“Okay, go to bed then. Don’t overwork yourself.”“I’m not. I’m enjoying i

Austin would not admit that he wanted to hear the gossip about Dylan’s love life.Dylan asked, “Are you free to talk right now?”“Sure. I have a whole dormitory unit to myself, and it’s quite spacious. I live quite comfortably. My salary comes on time every month, and I’m well-fed. My cooking skills have improved a lot, too.”Dylan was silent for a moment before he responded with another voice message.“You’ve only been focused on cooking? It’s been several months since you went there, and you didn’t even come back for the Christmas holidays. All you have in your brain is cooking.”“I came here specifically to cook in the first place.”Dylan was speechless.Indeed, Austin had heard that Isabella had an extremely picky palate, which he viewed as a challenge. Their nana had not even urged him once when he had eagerly gone to Satbury of his volition.Occasionally, Dylan heard his family mention Austin, saying that he was always busy researching new recipes and cooking, but seemed

Chameleon Fox turned to look at Dylan.After some time, she said, “Thanks for returning the token to me.”It was the end between him and Fox.Dylan stared at her and said, “Don’t be outside at midnight this often in the future. You should have a good rest.”It would make her fatigued in the morning. She would have to drink a few cups of coffee to stay alert.Fox smiled. “I like going out at midnight. It’s become a habit. Goodbye, Dylan.”She waved at him and opened the door. Soon, she disappeared from his sight.Since Imogen knew her token was in Wildridge Manor, she was no longer in a rush to get it back.It was because Dylan was still in Huntington. If she were to go to Wiltspoon and Dylan could not find her at the company, he would link her to Chameleon Fox. He already had suspicions that they were the same person.Wildridge Manor was a safe place anyway. She was not worried that the token would go missing.Dylan had hidden the token at the manor to keep it safe and preven

“Whether it’s Imogen, Chameleon Fox, or Sugar—aren’t they all you?”“I said I’m not Ms. Doyle.”Chameleon Fox’s expression hardened. “You’re a bastard, Dylan York. You flirted with me and Ms. Doyle before figuring everything out. This is two-timing. I won’t accept you, and neither would Ms. Doyle.”Dylan’s heated gaze focused on her face. He said, “You’re saying that you aren’t Imogen. Do you dare to remove your makeup, tear off your hyper-realistic mask, and show me your true face?”“Do you know what happens to those who have seen my true appearance? Death.“Everyone who has seen my face is already dead. If you wish to die, I can fulfill that wish for you. However, I don’t want to offend the York family and be their enemies. Don’t make me kill you.”She had only put on a layer of hyper-realistic mask that night. If she tore it off, it would reveal her true appearance.Dylan smiled. “That’s because you feel guilty. You dare not show me your true face because you’re Imogen and Su

Both Sugar and Chameleon Fox were not her true identity—her true self was Imogen Doyle. Dylan had to love her as Imogen. Imogen could not handle Dylan’s intense stare. She stood and asked, “When are you going to return my item? Give it back to me now. We should cut ties and never cross paths again.”“I don’t have it with me. I used to bring it along with me wherever I went, but you never came to get it. I left it at home. I didn’t bring it over.“Are you that desperate to cut off all communication with me? We’ve known each other for over half a year. Although we didn’t start on a good note, didn’t we get along afterward?”Dylan thought Imogen was trying to remove Fox from his life so he could get used to her being Imogen.“Do you have some misunderstanding toward the concept of ‘getting along’? We’ve only been quarreling or fighting whenever we met. Is that considered ‘getting along’? If it were not for you taking my thing and not returning it to me, I wouldn’t have had to chas

Dylan walked over and stood by the table. He did not stand beside her as he feared she would toss him over her shoulder.She did not like him being too close to her.“Are you still not admitting that you’re Imogen? I got the answer from my Nana. You’re Imogen. You’re also Sugar.”Imogen closed the book. She raised her head to look at Dylan. Her eyes were bright, and she had a smile on her face. “Are you sure your Nana said so? Do you have evidence that I’m Imogen Doyle?“Do I resemble her a lot?“Are our voices similar? What about our figures?”After a moment of silence, Dylan said, “Your face and voice aren’t like Imogen’s, but you two do have similar body shapes.“You’re called Chameleon Fox. It means you’re cunning and a master at disguising your looks. The only group of people who can disguise themselves perfectly in this world are the students of the legendary masters in the Imperial Force.“Sugar is Silver’s student, and Chameleon Fox is one of your fake identities. I don

Leticia knocked on the door of Imogen’s room but did not receive a response.“Jen is probably asleep. Stop knocking on the door. Look at the time now.”Winston reminded his wife that she should not wake their daughter as it was already late at night. Leticia stopped knocking and said, “I just wanted to talk to Jen because I haven’t seen her lately. I guess I’ll have to wait till her next day off if she’s asleep.”Although the Doyle family lived in the same mansion, the youngsters were always busy with company matters.They would always head out early in the morning and only be back late at night. Even during holidays, they barely had time to themselves because they had to meet clients.While Davidson Group was one of the best megacorporations in Huntington, the clients who worked with them were equally strong. There were also many competitors who would like to snatch business deals from Davidson Group.Therefore, Davidson Group had to maintain good relationships with their clie

However, Zachary was punished the least among the York brothers.He already started behaving like the eldest since he was young. He was calm and composed, unlike his naughty younger brothers. Gramps and Grandma May punished them often. Nevertheless, the York brothers liked being with their grandparents.“Enough of that. Let’s talk about you and Ms. Doyle. Have you wondered why she isn’t admitting that she’s Chameleon Fox? That’s just another alias of hers. Her true identity is Imogen Doyle, a young lady of the Doyle family.“She wants you to fall in love with Imogen instead of treating her as Fox. Although she’s also Fox, that isn’t her original self but simply an identity created through makeup.“If you two were to get married, you’d have to spend the rest of your lives as husband and wife. Ms. Doyle can’t possibly live with you as Chameleon Fox forever. She has already returned to her family. She’s no longer going on adventures with her teacher as Sugar either.“Everyone knows h
