Married at First Sight Chapter 1648
Elisa greeted Zachary and Andrew.When Zachary heard Elisa greet him, his lips twitched.Given that Serenity was one year younger than Elisa, she was Elisa’s younger cousin.“Ms. Stone.”Andrew behaved normally.Elisa’s and Andrew’s eyes met. At the same time, they thought, ‘What a coincidence!’The two of them came over spontaneously.“Didn’t Remy accompany you here, Ms. Stone?” Andrew asked Elisa with a smile.Elisa responded, “He has something to attend to, so I asked him to carry on with his work. He’s going back to Annenburg a few days later as his eldest sister-in-law is due to give birth.”Andrew hummed in acknowledgment.Serenity added, “Jane’s estimated due date hasn’t arrived, has it? Yet she’s due so soon.”“That’s what Remy said. I’m not sure either.”“But Jane is pregnant with twins. I heard twins are usually delivered in advance.” Serenity admired Jane who was going to give birth soon.Indeed, Jane had it all. Jane and Serenity were both the eldest missus o

Andrew looked at Elisa who was different from what rumors had said about her. Not wanting to stay any longer, he stood up and was going to take his leave. “Zack, Serenity, I’m leaving now.”“Why don’t you stay for a little while? You can go back after supper.”Serenity tried to persuade Andrew to stay.Andrew laughed and said, “I don’t usually have supper. After each supper, I need to spend a long time working out to maintain a good body shape. Serenity, I’m single, so my image is important.”Serenity grinned. “You’re like your cousin. He doesn’t want to have supper because he also wants to maintain his figure.”Since Andrew is insistent on leaving, Serenity stopped persuading him. She asked Zachary to walk his cousin out.“Seren, can you lend me your car so I don’t have to stay here overnight?”Upon her arrival at Serenity’s house, Elisa impulsively wanted to stay there as she did not want to return home. However, she thought it would be better to borrow a car and stay in her o

Remy flew back to Annenburg the next afternoon. Two days after he returned to Anneburg, Jane gave birth to a pair of fraternal twins.Remy instantly phoned Elisa to share his joy with her.This was not his first time being an uncle but it was different this time.Previously, he became an uncle to his cousin’s child.This time around, he was an uncle to his brother’s children.When Elisa picked up his call, she was still staying in her house. She did not return to the Stones’ residence.After Mrs. Stone found out from Serenity that Elisa was staying in her own house, she did not take the initiative to call Elisa. There was a deadlock between Mrs. Stone and Elisa. Seemingly, they gave each other the silent treatment.Mrs. Stone felt that she was right—it was her daughter who was immature, unfilial, and disobedient.On the other hand, Elisa found her mother stubborn. Remy had gotten things squared away, yet Mrs. Stone remained resolute just because Remy was not a Wiltspoonian.“T

“I need to return to the office because there’s a lot of work to address.”When letting out a sigh of relief, Remy decided to return to Wiltspoon in the afternoon.Having a lot of pending work was one of the reasons he wanted to return to Wiltspoon. However, the main reason was that being in Wiltspoon allowed him to protect Elisa easily.“What time will you arrive? Do you want me to pick you up?”When Remy returned to Annenburg, he would usually take a private jet. It was only when his brothers used his family’s private jet that he would book a flight ticket.Upon hearing that Elisa wanted to pick him up, he discarded the idea of taking a private jet.He said, “After booking a flight ticket, I’ll screenshot it for you.”“Alright. Let’s have dinner together.”Remy was pleased. “Sure.”“I’ll carry on with my work first.”Remy said reluctantly, “Okay. Take care and don’t overwork yourself. Just let me know if you need my help.”“Alright. My investment has been going well so far

Antonia knew that Remy had a target to go after, so she was not worried about his marriage. Remy barely talked to his parents about his love life. He normally shared it with his elder brother. It was through Ben that Antonia learned about it.She had seen Elisa’s photo. Through Ben and Jane, she found out about Elisa’s character. She was content with this young lady of the Stones.Given that Remy had not successfully pursued Elisa, Antonia felt that she should not randomly approach Elisa as it might frighten her.Remy’s handsome face reddened. He answered honestly, “Although I was physically at home over the last few days, my heart has been in Wiltspoon.” He was thinking about Elisa all the time.He could comprehend the proverb “absence makes the heart grow fonder”.Antonia guffawed and patted Remy’s shoulder as if she was his buddy. “All the best, Remy. I’ll give you moral support. If you need me to help you with your plans, feel free to let me know. Just give me a call, and I’

“This house is too quiet. Get a few people to watch the house.” During her walk, Mrs. Stone complained that her daughter’s house was too quiet.The Stones’ housekeeper would arrange for someone to clean the villa, but no one lived there.Elisa enjoyed being alone and free without being controlled by anyone.“I think this is great.”Elisa would like to keep to the status quo.Mrs. Stone shot a glance at her daughter. She did not want to keep arguing over the topic with her.“I’m attending a charity gala tonight. Come with me.”“Mom, you know I’ve always disliked attending galas. You can get Seren or Liberty to accompany you there.”Mrs. Stone could not help but poke Elisa’s head. “You’re now a businesswoman. It’s important to socialize. If you don’t socialize, how are you going to do business? If you’re able to do business in Wiltspoon, it’s all because of your brother’s reputation. Other people are willing to do it for the sake of our family’s status. “Thankfully, the vegetab

“Seren, I just got pregnant and will only deliver the baby eight to nine months later. The thought of being raised like a pig by Josh gives me a headache.”Seren smiled and said, “You’re taking things for granted.”Jasmine answered, “I’ll say this to you one day.”Serenity came back in while holding Sonny’s hand. After Sonny greeted Jasmine, he climbed onto a chair and sat on it. Jasmine stretched out her hand to touch Sonny’s face. “Although I’m pregnant, I’m being strictly controlled. I don’t have any freedom. If I can give birth to a cute baby like Sonny, it’ll be worth it.”“Isn’t it a baby boy in your stomach, Jazz?” Sonny asked innocently.Upon hearing that, Jasmine exchanged glances with Serenity before she said to Sonny, “Sonny, isn’t it a baby girl in my stomach?”Jasmine wanted a daughter.Sonny’s big eyes twinkled before he replied, “I don’t know.”The question escaped Sonny’s mouth instinctively.“I just got pregnant, so it’s not known whether the baby is a boy o

“Are you going home to get ready?” After pouring her heart out, Jasmine asked her best friend.Serenity responded, “I’ll send Sonny home first. He said he missed me after his class ended, so Jim sent him over.”She had to accompany her husband to attend the charity gala at night, so it was inconvenient for her to bring Sonny along.“Hurry up and leave. I’ll be here to watch the store. It’s been a long time since I last sat here. I wonder if those little monkeys miss me.”Jasmine referred to students as little monkeys.“Should I inform Mr. Bucham that you’re here watching the store?”Jasmine said, “No need. He knows about it. Look at that row of bodyguards. Even if I don’t tell him, won’t they do it? Josh won’t stop me from watching the store. All I do is use the cash register.”Serenity laughed. “Fine. You stay here and watch the store. I’ll send Sonny back.”“Go ahead.”Serenity held her nephew and left the bookstore.After Serenity left, Jasmine immediately headed to the ki

Lilian often messed with the medicinal herbs her master cultivated, which led to her being chased and scolded by him.It seemed her son had inherited her restless nature.“How’s Sonny been lately?”Liberty had been on edge these past few days because Caroline had been preparing to lure her three brothers into a trap and had not had time to call her son.“Same as usual, but it seems like things have soured again with the Browns.”Serenity added, “Sonny still answers when Hank calls him, but he doesn’t seem happy when his grandparents visit. He doesn’t like going to the Browns’ place, and he doesn’t want to take their calls either.“Hank’s mother and sister are truly incorrigible. They must have been badmouthing you and Duncan in front of Sonny again, which is why he’s upset with them.”During the holidays, Sonny had stayed with the Browns for a few days and started to warm up to them.However, who would have thought that the mother and daughter would start spouting nonsense in f

Once the baby was born, he would apply the knowledge he had learned over the past few months to care for the baby. He was determined to be a competent and responsible father.Serenity released her arms from around him and shifted to her side.Zachary let go, too, allowing her to turn.Then, she planted countless gentle kisses on his face.“Babe, with you here, the baby and I will be just fine. Don’t worry too much,” Serenity comforted softly after kissing him.“You are my rock. If even you are nervous, I’ll start feeling anxious too, and that won’t be good.”Hearing this, Zachary immediately said, “Seren, don’t worry. I’ll protect both of you. Alright, I won’t be so nervous anymore.”He gently touched her rounded belly again. “Lil’ Bun should be a calm kid. He’s not that mischievous.”He felt that the baby’s movements were not too intense.Serenity wanted to tell him that there were times when the baby kicked more vigorously, but she decided against it, knowing it would only m

“Just hit the gym a few more times. Lately, you’ve been spending less time there.”Every day after work, he would come home and orbit around her. As a result, he had less time to work out.It was normal to gain a few pounds eating well and exercising less. Did he really think he could eat anything without gaining weight?The reason he could maintain a model-like physique before was that he exercised daily.“Ow.” Serenity suddenly cried out in pain.This startled Zachary so much that he nearly jumped up, asking anxiously, “Is it stomach pain? Are you going into labor? Let’s go to the hospital right away.”He was about to pick her up, but Serenity stopped him by pressing his hand.“Don’t be so nervous, Zachary. It's not time yet. It’s not happening so soon. It’s just the baby kicking again. His kicks are getting stronger.”As she entered the later stages of pregnancy, the little one inside her was growing stronger. Sometimes, a couple of kicks from the baby could actually hurt.

Zachary, afraid that his wife might refuse to spend time with him at his office in the future, emphasized that he was not busy today.He had already cleared his morning schedule because he needed to accompany his beloved wife for her prenatal checkup.His secretary was well aware of Serenity’s checkup dates. Whenever he saw Serenity turn up at the office with his boss, his secretary would quietly adjust his schedule.Sometimes, on the day of the Serenity’s checkup, his secretary would not schedule any appointments for Zachary at all.Even if appointments were scheduled, Zachary would request they be canceled or rescheduled.Now, in Zachary’s eyes, his wife’s matters were the most important.With Alex now able to share the workload, Zachary felt that he, as the eldest of his generation who had shouldered the bulk of the burden for so many years, deserved a break.Plus, there was the elite team the company had trained; if not now, then when would they be put to use?Everyone was

Tony turned around and left.Only after hearing the door close did Carrie dare to open her eyes.She had woken up while Tony and his son were on the phone, but she did not dare move, fearing that Tony might suspect her of eavesdropping.Just now, when that old lecher stood by the bed looking at her, there was definitely a murderous glint in his eyes. She could feel it.Sooner or later, he would kill her.Carrie was filled with panic. She wanted to escape but was afraid she would not succeed. No one was there to help her.For a moment, Carrie even considered running to Camryn to confess everything, but she quickly dismissed the thought. The reason she ended up in this situation was entirely due to Camryn.She and Camryn were sworn enemies. Their conflict would not end until one of them was dead. However, even if she died, she would drag Camryn down with her.-Meanwhile, in the CEO's office at York Corporation, Zachary, seated at his desk, kept glancing up at his pregnant wife.

“You should have gotten rid of them all back then and cultivated a network of people loyal only to you.” Manny felt that his father should not have spared those people in the first place.Tony said, “There were too many of them, all relatives and friends with the same goal as us. We couldn’t eliminate them all at once.”Back then, he had incited everyone to join him in wiping out the entire main family, sparing neither the elderly nor the children.It was because they were all from the collateral branches, jealous of the main family’s long-standing control, and shared a common goal that his conspiracy succeeded.He had also spent over a decade waiting for the right opportunity.Who would have thought that even after wiping out the main family, he still could not obtain the family seal, token, or totem? Without these, he could not become the true head of the family and could only act as a proxy. Many of the connections loyal to the head remained inaccessible.Moreover, much of the

It was his father. Manny composed himself and picked up Tony’s call as he walked toward his car.“Hey, Pops.”“How’s it going, Manny? Has there been any progress?”Tony was still in Carrie’s room at the moment, but had gotten up and walked to the balcony to call his son.Carrie was still fast asleep, though her face was set in a frown. She was obviously discomfited.Tony had pestered her for the majority of last night, so it would be weird if she did not feel any discomfort.Despite her begging, Tony would not let her go. He even forcefully drugged her to make her mess around with him while out of it. He was simply an old pervert.Before she passed out, she cursed him in her heart. However, she knew that Tony only treated her so roughly because she was just his mistress—a tool for him to vent his frustrations on.If she really was his wife, he definitely would not treat her like this.In the past, she had ambitions of taking Mrs. Longbottom’s place and becoming the real missus

Tati also finished her plate of pastries.She followed Isabella out.“Isa, you’re always so busy and exhausted. If you’re feeling even a little unwell, you should have a good rest. Stay home for the day. I can handle the work you have on hand. It’s the same either way.”Tati wanted Isabella to take the day off so Isabella could spend some time with Austin and nurture their relationship.However, Isabella still declined Tati’s kind offer.She said, “Not today. There’s an important meeting today, and I have two important clients to meet. I’m fine, really. Don’t worry. From now on, I won’t touch alcohol.”Given her current status and position, no one would dare to force her to drink during social engagements.Many people also knew that Isabella would not drink outside her home, fearing that she might fall victim to someone’s schemes.However, Isabella would occasionally make an exception. When she was in a good mood, she would have a couple of drinks.Hearing this, Tati stopped t

Austin still smiled gently and said, “It’s all thanks to Ms. Isabella’s guidance.”He felt that he had indeed improved a lot.Grandma May really understood him well. The wife she picked for him could actually help improve his culinary skills.“After eating the sweets, I feel much better.” Tati picked up another piece of pastry and ate it.Austin quietly retreated, not wanting to disturb their conversation and also to avoid overhearing their private matters.“Just ignore him. Are you really going to skip work because of him?”Isabella added calmly to Tati, “If you let him provoke you, he’ll only cling to you even more. If you act like he doesn’t exist and don’t respond no matter what he does, he’ll naturally give up once he sees that you’re completely unresponsive.”Tati said, “I’m afraid that he’ll go and bother Edith and Eleanor if he doesn’t get anywhere with me. They don’t have the same resolve as we do.”She, therefore, decided to bear the brunt of it.“Every time I see hi
