Married at First Sight Chapter 2214
The setting sun caressed Hayden’s face with its rays, but even the sunlight could not melt her icy expression. Likewise for the blazing sun at noon, which was likely to fail in softening her tensed facial lines. “Kevin, I told you I don’t like flowers. Stop giving me flowers!” Hayden said as she shoved the bouquet away so that nothing could come in her path of leaving. Kevin took her hand, but Hayden broke free from his grasp. “Hayden, I’m trying to win you over. Flowers are a must to get me a wife.” Since Kevin followed Hayden along like a puppy, Hayden’s security detail was tempted to sneak up from behind and give him a kick in the derriere. Alas, they could only envision the scene in their heads as they could not possibly lay a hand on Kevin in reality. Donald and Sophia were not the only ones nice to Kevin. Even Hayden tolerated Kevin’s behavior. Hayden may appear annoyed every time Kevin showed up, but their employer had been patient with Kevin. The worst Hayden wou

It took several minutes before Hayden was about to slam the door and keep Kevin out of the car. When she thought she could finally leave the office, she was stopped by yet another suitor. It was Celine. Celine watched as Kevin’s shameless attachment rendered Hayden helpless. It was then Celine realized she must be bold to express her feelings and court Hayden if she liked him. Regardless of Hayden’s reaction or acceptance, Celine must work hard to prove her love. Celine still believed she was saving Hayden from a disaster. Kevin was a man. Hayden was also a man. There was still a lot of discrimination against same-sex couples in many parts of the world. The relationship was doomed right from the start. Most importantly, Hayden was not gay, and he despised Kevin. Celine wanted to adopt Kevin’s approach and pushed the competition away. Since she and Hayden were a man and woman, Hayden might just end up with her. It should send a strong message to Kevin to let Hayde

Celine broke free from the two security guards and turned back to give one of them a slap in the face. She yelled, “You’re nothing but watchdogs. You have no right to touch me. Do you think you can hurt me because I’m not the real heiress of the Fisher family? Even the real heiress has to think twice before crossing me.”Then came a smack. It did not come from Celine though. The security guard who was slapped returned the favor. Since the security guard was a man, he packed a lot of force into the slap. The heavy blow threw Celine off. With a hand over her cheek, she glared at the security guard in disbelief. The burning pain pulled Celine back to reality as she furiously swung her arm. Nevertheless, the security guard was not going to take her abuse lying down. He dodged Celine’s incoming palm and pushed her away. Celine staggered back until she regained footing. “How dare you hit me, b*stard! I’m going to kill you for pushing me!” Once she kept to her feet, Celine pi

“Hayden will not like you. You’re a man!” Celine blurted in anger before storming off. She could not beat Kevin. Her mother often reminded her to avoid taking Kevin head-on as York Corporation stood behind Kevin. Even her mother had to tread carefully around Kevin. Kevin told the two security guards, “You can get back to work. Don’t bother with this psycho. Don’t worry, I have your back.” Well, he was curious to see if Madam Fisher would get even with him on the imposter’s behalf. Kevin got a handle on the situation after Mrs. Stone’s discreet trip with Liberty to Jensburg—the Fishers and the Yorks were on opposite sides. Madam Fisher caused the death of Serenity’s grandmother! The two security guards thanked Kevin and went back to their posts. It was not as though they were afraid as they were merely carrying out Mr. Hayden’s orders to drag Celine away. Celine was playing with fire to block Mr. Hayden’s way. Celine should consider herself lucky that Mr. Hayden did n

How could Caroline possibly ditch the client for Celine at a time like this? Even if she did not need to meet a client, Caroline would not pick Celine up. The phony had occupied everything that was hers, and now that the truth was out, Celine never once apologized to Caroline. In fact, Celine pushed her around, so why should she fetch Celine from Queen Enterprise? “Who called you?” asked Madam Fisher tenderly as she noticed her daughter answering a call and promptly hanging up without a word.“It was Celine.” “What does she want now? Why did she call you?” The mother and daughter walked into the hotel. “She said her car is broken and ordered me to pick her up right away.” Caroline kept her tone flat. “Mom, I can’t possibly leave now to fetch her. I have a valid reason if she goes complaining to you.” Looking upset, Madam Fisher said, “Got it. I will talk to her if she comes to me. She does nothing all day long. You have to work, and we’re meeting an important client now.

“Mom?” Celine was surprised to hear Madam Fisher’s voice over the phone. She took a whole different personality, making herself to be the victim as she answered, “Mom, Kevin pulled one on me. He deflated all my tires, and I’m stranded with the car. It’s hot outside. I wanted Caroline to pick me up. It won’t take her a lot of time to make a trip to Queen Enterprise anyway since it’s after work hours, and it won’t get in the way of her working overtime.” “Why did you get involved with Kevin again? Do you take my advice seriously? I told you not to get on Kevin’s nerves. He’s a York! Even I am courteous with Kevin. Who do you think you are to stir trouble with Kevin?” Madam Fisher let her anger rip. For once, she lost her patience with Celine. “Do you think you can bear the consequences of the York family going after our family? If that happens, don’t blame me for disowning you to save the family.” “Mom!”Celine thought she was hearing things. Was she talking to the moth

“Of course, Caroline would take the opportunity to complain about you to your mom since you ordered her to pick you up while they were meeting a client. Considering Caroline just closed a huge deal, your mom is sure to show her some level of respect.”Celine was overwhelmed with jealousy. “Well, isn’t she lucky?” “I know, right.” Emma allowed jealousy to rear its ugly head too. If Caroline managed to establish herself, then Caroline would become the head of the family while her husband would be left out of the picture. Her husband had been slaving away for Fisher Enterprise, but in the end, all his work would be for Caroline’s benefit. That fact would not sit well with Emma and her husband. While the battle between the real and fake heiresses of the Fisher family was in full swing, Serenity was spoiled by everybody in Wiltspoon. After returning from FC Manor, Serenity rested for a couple of days before throwing herself back into work. Zachary did not stop her from goi

“That’s right. The baby’s health is more important than gender. The York family has had sons for generations. They can’t blame you for not being able to birth a daughter. The deciding factor of a baby’s gender is the men anyway.”“Seren,” called a familiar voice.It was Grandma May.Elisa and Serenity looked toward the office door. They saw her entering with Mrs. Lane carrying a few insulated lunch boxes in her hands too. “What brings you here, Nana?”“Grandma May.”Serenity and Elisa stood. When Serenity spotted the lunch boxes Mrs. Lane was holding, she figured out why Grandma May had come. They were delivering food to her. The old lady smiled and said, “It’s noon. I don’t want you walking around because the weather’s scorching, so Cecilia and I are here to deliver some food for you to eat in the office. You can even take a rest after eating.”After speaking, she grinned at Elisa and said, “It’s been a while, Little Fireball.”Elisa grumbled unhappily, “I’m not little an

“A baby’s face changes almost every day. We’ll only know who he takes after when he’s a little older.”Serenity agreed. “I should call Elisa and share this news with her.”Jasmine probably did not have time to tell her friends about her newborn. Serenity also forgot to inform Elisa because she was too worried about Jasmine. Zachary told her to call Elisa only after they were inside the car. There were too many people in the hospital. Serenity held back her excitement and immediately called Elisa when she got in the car. Elisa was extremely busy at the company. She was the only one who could manage their joint company at that moment because Serenity and Jasmine were pregnant. Even if they wanted to return to the company to work, Elisa would not allow them. Rest was of utmost importance for pregnant women. Elisa was unmarried and not pregnant. She did not mind being busier. She only picked up Serenity’s call after some time.“Seren.”Elisa held the phone in her left h

“All that matters is that you’re okay, honey. Let’s not have more children. We’ll just have this one son.”Josh spoke while holding Jasmine’s hand.Women had to experience immense pain when giving birth. It came with many risks as well. Josh had heard other people saying that a woman usually had one foot in the grave during childbirth.He was genuinely shocked after accompanying Jasmine through her labor. He had been terrified and worried that something would happen to Jasmine.Luckily, everything ended well. Jasmine and their son were safe. However, Josh did not want to experience something like that again. Having one child was enough. There was no need for a second or third child. The Buchams were a big family anyway. He did not have to bear the responsibility of expanding the family alone.“Okay. We shall not have another baby.”Although Jasmine was brimming with motherly love and recovery from a vaginal delivery was quicker, she still thought childbirth was too

It was not just Camila. The rest of the people there also had the same thought. Josh and Jasmine had a great relationship. If something happened to Jasmine, Josh would be devastated and lose all hope of living.“Congratulations. The mother has given birth to a boy safely. The baby boy is six pounds and three ounces.”The people who brought Josh out were the anesthetist and nurse.The nurse instinctively reported the good news when she saw the crowd.Then, she explained, “The father probably fainted from shock after the baby was born. Come over and help bring him to the side to rest. The mother won’t be out that quickly.”Upon hearing her words, everyone’s mood brightened up.Camila, whose legs felt weak just now, was immediately filled with strength and stood up. Without Drake's help, she went to the nurse and asked, “Does the baby need to be in the incubator since he was born prematurely?”The nurse replied, “We’ll put the baby in the incubator and observe him for a while. If

Zachary was also worried that Serenity would go into premature labor out of shock. He also persuaded her to go for her checkup in a gentle voice. They could not do anything but wait anyway.Serenity finally decided to conduct her prenatal checkup first. Zachary accompanied her. Just moments after they left, the door to the delivery suite opened. A nurse stood there and shouted, “Is Jasmine Sox’s husband here?”“Yes. I’m her husband,” replied Josh quickly. He dashed to the nurse. “You must save Jas, doctor. Save the mother no matter what.”His family members behind him also echoed, “That’s right. No matter what happens, you have to save Jasmine.”The nurse said, “The mother is fine. It’s just that she wants her husband to accompany her as she’s in a lot of pain.”Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.Josh was about to rush inside but was stopped by the nurse.She asked him to change his clothes before taking him inside the delivery suite.Jasmine was wailing in pain.

With advanced medical technology, a premature baby could still be healthy if taken good care of in the incubator. Serenity said, “Jasmine should be at thirty-five weeks. I just don’t understand why she would suddenly go into labor. Did she fall at home?“Or did she eat something that made her go into labor?”Zachary said, “That’s most likely not the case. Josh’s cousin is Jasmine’s dietician and keeps an eye on her food every day. There’s no way Jasmine would’ve eaten something bad unless she ate it secretly.”Serenity and Zachary suddenly went silent. Pregnant women had weird appetites. Once they had a craving, they could not go unsatisfied. Sometimes, they would even crave fruits that were not in season. Serenity herself was one of them. Once, she woke up in the middle of the night craving mac and cheese. Of course, Zachary, the ever-doting husband, had to satisfy her request. However, where could he find mac and cheese at that hour?Ultimately, he had to drive to the

People would reap what they had sown. They would have to bear the consequences of their actions. Sometimes, interfering in another person’s fate would backfire. After chatting for some time, Serenity said, “I have to go for my checkup now, Liberty. Let’s talk again when you’re free another day.“By the way, I’ll get someone to bring Sonny to you this weekend. He misses you.”“Okay,” said Liberty. After the call ended, Serenity put her phone into her bag and stood up. She told the man behind the office desk, “It’s almost time, babe. Let’s go.”“Okay. I’m almost done.”Zachary quickly signed and stamped a document before closing it. He walked over with the document in hand. Serenity and Zachary left the office together. He handed the document to his secretary. The secretary did not expect him to pass the document to him personally. He had thought of entering Zachary’s office to request it later. The secretary watched Zachary and Serenity leave. He could not believe

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.
