Married at First Sight Chapter 523
Earlier when the entourage appeared, Serenity did not notice Jim leaving to the back of the hotel to hide.She also had no idea that the man sitting beside her, who had been caring for her and gave her all the tingly warmth in the cold, was actually a superb actor. She said to Zachary, “My sister called earlier. She and Hank had agreed on the conditions for the divorce.”“How did it go?”“All the properties under Hank’s name will be divided equally with my sister. She’s not asking for the house and car, but he has to compensate an additional sum of money to her. Sonny’s custody will belong to my sister, and he has to pay three thousand per month for child support.“His request is that my sister will give him the evidence against him, including all copies she made. He also made her promise not to retaliate against him after the divorce.”“What did your sister say then?”“She agreed, but she only promised that she would not retaliate against him herself.”“She’s giving us the ch

“Liberty is still going through the divorce and hasn’t completely secured her job yet. Let’s help her pay for the rent in the meantime.”Zachary was more than willing to simply hand over a house for his sister-in-law and her son to live in. Liberty was the person closest to his wife, so he would not mistreat her.However, he could not do that now.Thinking of the sisters’ characters, even if he gave Liberty a house, she would not accept it.“My sister will get more than one million dollars worth of assets from Hank. She won’t let us pay the rent for her.”The sisters supported each other, but they would not take it for granted.Both the sisters would not pluck the moon from the sky for each other to go overboard in providing help; they simply respected and supported each other where necessary.Zachary did not say anything.Soon, they arrived at York Corporation.Zachary stopped the car and looked sideways at Serenity.Serenity was looking at him too and grinned. “We’re at you

Feeling Serenity’s concern for him, Zachary said in a warm voice, “I have a dinner party tonight, so I won’t be home early. You don’t have to wait for me. Go to bed early, but sleep in my room.”His handsome face turned slightly red as he said the last sentence.That was because he remembered how he was the one who told her that his room was off limits and had forbidden her from entering his room.Now, he was the one asking her to enter his room.Serenity smiled. “Sure. I’ll leave the door unlocked for you. Hurry up and go in. Don’t stand here in the cold wind.”Zachary turned around reluctantly and went into the building.Serenity watched his handsome figure walk farther away before driving away.After entering the office building, Zachary saw Josh standing there, looking at him with a smile.Zachary was speechless.‘This gossiper!’He shot a side glance at Josh and walked straight ahead.Josh did not care about how Zachary looked at him and he followed suit. After entering

“What did you say to him?”“What can I say? I can’t tell him bluntly that his successor is trying to steal your woman from you. This was caused by your personal matters, so you deal with it yourself. I’ll ask Mr. Chaplin to squeeze in a time for you to meet with Mr. Lowe.”Zachary said indifferently, “Save it for after the New Year’s. I’m going on a business trip in two days.”Josh froze, suspecting he had misheard. “You’re going on a business trip? Where to? Can you bear to leave your wife? Your relationship happens to be improving now.”Zachary was silent for a long time before saying, “There’s no harm in telling you this. The whole city will know sooner.”There was finally gossip to share.As the representative of all gossipers, Josh’s ears immediately perked up. He grinned and asked, “What happened?”“The sister who Mrs. Stone has been looking for is most likely my mother-in-law.”Josh paused before saying, “You have a mother-in-law? I mean, didn’t your mother-in-law die a

If Serenity had known from the beginning that Zachary was the heir of the York family, she would not have married him so suddenly.It could be said that the entire York family, starting from Grandma May, hid the truth from Serenity.Josh spat in his heart, ‘The whole family are liars.’Even if Grandma May wanted a granddaughter-in-law, this was not the way.Josh suddenly felt distressed when he remembered that he did not confess his identity to Jasmine. He decided that the next time he saw her, he would tell her that he was actually from the Bucham family; lest he followed in Zachary’s footsteps.“Well, you do you. I’m not you, so I can’t make decisions for you, but your wife’s temper is stubborn. If you don’t handle it well, you two might end up separating.”Zachary’s face went as white as a sheet.He was afraid that Serenity would break it off with him.That was why he wanted to wait until their feelings were deeper and she was reluctant to leave him; only then would it be ap

In fact, Zachary felt that actions spoke louder than words.It was easier to prove his love for her with concrete actions than to say sweet nothings with his mouth.Of course, if Serenity liked to listen to mushy words, then he would learn no matter how cringy it was.Josh stood up and leaned over to remind his friend in a whisper, “Ask about Ms. Sox.”Zachary pushed him away lightly with one hand. After chatting for a while longer with Serenity over the phone, he helped Josh ask, “Seren, will Ms. Sox be back at the store this afternoon? My colleague was thinking of going to see her because she’s not feeling well.”Serenity replied, “Jas is not coming over. I told her to rest at home and come back when her fever was completely gone. Does your colleague want to see her? He can call her directly and ask her out.”“Ms. Sox is sick, and the temperature dropped today so it’s even colder. My colleague will blame himself if her condition worsens after he asks her out. Send me a message
Married at First Sight Chapter 529
Zachary accepted the bag from Mr. Chaplin.Inside contained two red brocade boxes.He took one box out.Josh was not stupid and knew that Grandma May retrieved this from her private treasury to please Serenity.He envied Zachary for having a good grandmother who was worried about his marriage.Grandma May was the pillar of the York family and was respected by everyone. No one would stop her if she arranged for a sudden marriage like the one between Zachary and Serenity.Josh wanted a handful of grandmothers like that.Unfortunately, his grandmother passed away.“I’ll go back to work.”Josh did not want to be further provoked by his best friend again. There were some things that should not be envied.He stood up and left the office with Mr. Chaplin.Zachary looked at the two diamond rings that his nana had sent him and took out his cell phone to call her. “Nana, I’ll buy these two rings from you. How can I accept wedding rings as a gift from you?”Grandma May laughed. “Sure.

Mr. Brown had a hunch. It must be related to the divorce with Liberty.Olivia brought the cutlery and served her son food. “You didn’t tell me in advance, so I didn’t cook for you. This was supposed to be for the dog, but you can have it instead. I’ll cook some pasta for you later if you’re still hungry.”“I’ll be full after eating this, Mom.”From the moment he walked in, Hank let his mother serve him food and even set the table for him with cutlery ready. He was used to his mother doing this.After the family of three finished their meal, Hank handed the manila folder to his father.“What is this?”Mr. Brown was suspicious, but he reached out and took the envelope. He opened it and took out a stack of papers and photos from inside.Olivia took a peek too.The husband and wife frowned as they looked at it.“Hank, you kept so much money?” Olivia was shocked that her son had so much money.Mr. Brown frowned and asked his son, “Did Liberty give you this?”Hank nodded.“What d

“Sonny is still a child. As his aunt, you didn’t even prepare a Christmas gift for him, and you have the nerve to ask him for one?! Have you even prepared gifts for your mother and me?“Liberty is rich now because of her capability. Now that she’s well-off, you expect her to prepare Christmas gifts for you, her former sister-in-law? Who do you think you are?“She treated you so well in the past that she would buy and cook whatever you wanted when you visited. Though the money came from Hank’s earnings, if Liberty hadn’t been willing to do it, do you think Hank could have done anything about it?“She shouldn’t have been so good to you and allowed you to get used to it. You’re always trying to take advantage of others when she doesn’t owe you anything. Hank and Liberty are divorced now! But even if they’re still married, how do you have the gall to take so many things from us when you come home empty-handed?“Let me ask you—have you ever left empty-handed from here? Even a roll of to

If it were not for the fear that his mother would scold him when they got home, Lucas would have rushed over to have a go at Sonny. He would just wait until the adults were busy and their attention diverted settling the score with Sonny. It was just a two-day visit, but Sonny made it seem like he was the crown prince back from winning the war.“Sonny, didn’t you bring any Christmas gifts for your dad or Granddad and Grandmom? I’m really craving steak. Your mom knows I love steak, but she didn’t even prepare a big box of prime Kobe beef cuts for you to bring back.”Chelsea opened Sonny’s small suitcase and looked through it. Besides Sonny’s clothes, there were only a few toys. She was about to open the three gift boxes to check what was inside, but Hank quickly smacked her hand aside.“These are the supplements Sonny brought for me and our parents,” Hank said. He then hurriedly took the boxes back to his room. Chelsea was like a thief—if the things were not locked away in his roo

Luke and Olivia came over as well. Luke pushed Chelsea aside and said, “Move to the side. Don’t scare Sonny.”The old couple was all smiles when they turned to face Sonny. They fought over who to carry Sonny, but the little guy ultimately chose Luke. To him, his grandmom was the same as Aunt Chel. Granddad was much better. Luke sat on the sofa with Sonny in his arms. Lucas was also sitting on the sofa and eating snacks.Hank had bought those for Sonny when he returned. When Lucas saw Sonny, he did not greet or hug him like brothers usually do. Instead, he quickly took the plate filled with snacks away and said, “These are all mine.”Sonny frowned. Lucas was still as bossy and gluttonous as before. Whenever Lucas came to his house, he snatched his toys or food. ‘Oh, it’s Dad’s house,’ thought Sonny. It could not be considered his house. The place where he and his mother lived was his home. “Lucas.”Chelsea scolded her son, “Your uncle bought those snacks for Sonny.

Even Corey dared not do anything to Liberty, let alone the relatives. They were not fools.They would not incite arguments like Chelsea. Moreover, Liberty had the backing of the York and Stone families. The Wiltspoonians knew how much Serenity cared about her sister. Serenity would fight anyone who dared harm Liberty. If Serenity wanted to fight, Zachary would not sit still either. “I’m not my past self. I won’t get bullied.“Now that I think about it, I don’t know why I was so stupid back then. I was a housewife whose world revolved around my husband and baby. Even so, I was mistreated.”Liberty did not take care of her health as well. She let herself overeat to the point her weight became unhealthy. At that time, she thought she could afford to gain some weight since she was already married and had given birth. She also stopped dressing up. After the divorce, Liberty realized that women, especially married women, should love themselves. How could a woman expect oth

“You must come pick me up with Mom, Dunc. Okay?”“Of course.”Duncan could not bear leaving Sonny. He was already missing Sonny even though the little man was still right before him. Sonny slid down and returned to Hank’s side. Hank held his hand. He was about to say something to Duncan but ultimately decided against it. “Sonny and I shall head up now. His grandparents are waiting for him.”Liberty hummed in approval.She and Duncan stood and watched Hank walk away with Sonny. Sonny kept looking back and waving at them. Duncan tried his best to restrain himself from running forward to hug Sonny. He kept chanting mentally, ‘Hank is Sonny’s biological dad.’Letting the father and son reunite once in a while was perfectly normal. As a stepfather, he could not stop Hank and Sonny from hanging out together. Luckily, it was only for two days. Duncan was thankful that Liberty had brought Sonny to FC Manor right after winter vacation started instead of letting the Browns t

“Dad.”Sonny ran toward Hank when he spotted his father. Hank stepped forward and bent over to lift his son. He then kissed Sonny’s cheeks several times and rubbed his face against Sonny’s. They seemed close.Indeed, Hank had been treating Sonny well. Liberty only pushed Duncan over after Hank and Sonny were done.Hank’s gaze landed on Liberty’s face. She had a rosy complexion and charming eyes. Her expression was gentle, and she had a slight smile. However, it was not because she was being friendly toward Hank. She was simply in a good mood because she and Duncan finally got married and just had their wedding night. “Sorry for making you bring Sonny over, Liberty.”They initially agreed on having Liberty drop Sonny off at the neighborhood’s entrance, where he should have been waiting. However, he missed the timing because he was quarreling with Chelsea. Liberty had no choice but to bring Sonny inside. Hank knew she did not really want to return to the neighborhood, h

Liberty’s old neighbors even told her how terrible life had been for the Brown family for the past two years. A lady who used to be close to Liberty and Serenity pulled Liberty’s hand. She said, “The Brown family is unfortunate. Your living a better life than them is the best revenge.”Liberty smiled. “I don’t want to get revenge. I just want to live my own life. Whether they’re doing well or not doesn’t concern me.”“Of course. You’re kind and generous. There’s no need to stoop down to their level.”The lady caressed Sonny’s face. “Sonny has grown so much. He’s in preschool now, right? Getting more handsome as he grows. He looks just like you, Liberty.”“Hello,” Sonny greeted the lady. She smiled. “What a good boy.”Sonny had always been an obedient child as she recalled. The residents loved to tease the boy whenever Liberty or Serenity brought him out to play. What was the Brown family thinking? How could they not love such an adorable kid?Mr. and Mrs. Brown would rather

Sonny nodded. “I know, Mom. I’ll tell Dad to hide the box so Aunt Chel can’t find it. Why does Aunt Chel like taking stuff from Dad’s house?“Lucas used to take my toys too. I even cried. Grandmom said Lucas would return my toy after some time, but he never did.”Although Sonny was only two years old two years ago, he still remembered how his grandmom sided with Lucas. “About Chelsea… That’s something for the adults to think about. You’re still young. Don’t pay any mind to it.”Chelsea’s parents were to blame for her selfish behavior and habit of leeching off her family. Hank also played a part by allowing his parents to spoil his sister. Even he helped her out a lot in the past. Whenever Chelsea visited, he would get Liberty to prepare whatever dishes Chelsea wanted to eat, no matter how expensive they were. He also specifically asked for large portions to be made so that Chelsea could have her fill. Chelsea loved seafood. Her favorites were pricey ones like lobsters and crab

“Dunc picked me up. He’ll take me to Dad’s place afterward.“Are you feeling unwell, Mom?”Sonny got up and touched Liberty’s forehead, then his own. He even stuck their foreheads together. His mother and Aunt Ser always did the same thing whenever he felt sick. He simply copied what they did.“I’m fine.”Liberty could not tell Sonny that her waist and legs were sore. Instead, she glared at Duncan, who was sitting at the bedside. It was all his fault. He was insatiable. Duncan smiled apologetically. He could not help but indulge himself once he got a taste of pleasure after being single for so long. Liberty was the victim of his hunger. “Then why did you wake up this late? It’s already eleven. I wanted to wake you up, but Dunc didn’t let me. He said you were tired and that I should let you rest,” said Sonny.Liberty lied. “I was on an extended business trip and worked night and day. The things I had to do were endless. I’m too tired. Now that I’m finally on vacatio
