Married at First Sight Chapter 229
Old Mrs. York was infuriated at her grandson’s behavior, so much so she did not want to walk anymore. She sat down on a stone bench by the roadside.She spent so much effort talking her grandson into agreeing to get married, but...Zachary was silent for a moment. He then came over and sat beside his nana. He said calmly, “Nana, you know that love can’t be forced. I was raised by you, and you asked me to marry her to repay your kindness, so I listened to you.“You promised me that you won’t interfere with our married life. The day I got my marriage license with Serenity, I told you that I have to examine her character and see if she’s worthy for me to spend the rest of my life with. Otherwise, we’ll end it in half a year.”Old Mrs. York said grumpily, “With your nasty temper, you wouldn’t admit it even if you fell in love with Serenity.”Zachary was speechless.“Forget it, I’m not angry. I was wrong when I forced you to marry Serenity. You’re right. Love can’t be forced. You can

“I’m outside now. I’m going to your store to have breakfast with you. By the way, you don’t need to get takeouts for breakfast, Seren. I bought three portions. I’ll bring them over to eat with you and Jasmine.”“Sure. Wait for me in the store then. I’ll be right there. But Nana, you don’t have to get up so early in the future. You can sleep in. I won’t be hungry.”“I’m old now and a light sleeper. I wake up as soon as the sun rises, so I’m used to it. I’m not worried about you going hungry. I just like eating with you. Food tastes especially good when it’s with you.”Serenity laughed.For the past few months, she often ate with the old lady.Old Mrs. York knew that many old stores in Wiltspoon serve delicious snacks. She would often take Serenity and Jasmine to eat all these famous and most authentic snacks in Wiltspoon.Serenity and Jasmine both felt that Old Mrs. York was definitely a glutton when she was in her youth.Now that she was old, she could not eat a lot. Furthermore

Old Mrs. York looked at her grandson, and her grandson looked at her.Her lips moved several times to say something, but she did not speak. In the end, she burst into laughter.Zachary was exasperated as he watched his nana laugh uncontrollably.Old Mrs. York grinned and patted his shoulder. Zachary had to hold his grandmother for fear that she would fall if she laughed too hard.After a while, she finally stopped laughing and said, “Zack, I was wrong about you. Serenity learned mixed martial arts, and her skill is quite good, so it’s no problem for her to handle a handful of punks.“My suggestion to you next time is when you see her in trouble, regardless if she needs help or not. Just go up and save her. In fact, it’s better if you get hurt while saving her. That way, she’ll feel guilty about it and will treat you exceptionally well.”Zachary’s expression was gloomy, and his thin lips pursed tightly.“You need to know a few tricks if you want to chase after your wife. Of cours

“Yes, sir.”Zachary’s driver and Jim got out of the car.The driver in distress was grateful for the two who got out to help him.After checking the car, Zachary’s driver said, “It’ll take several hours for your car to be repaired. We’re in a rush and can’t help you. I’ll ask some people to help you push the car to the side so you don’t block the incoming traffic. You can call a tow truck later.”The car could be moved to the side with everyone’s combined efforts.As long as the car was moved, it would not block the cars behind.With gratitude, the driver said, “Of course, then I’ll thank you in advance. Um, the young lady I’m working for has urgent business to attend to. Could you give her a ride?”Jim and the driver did not dare to agree without permission, but Jim returned to the Rolls-Royce and respectfully asked their boss. “Mr. Zachary, there’s another person in the car in front. The driver said she’s a young lady who he’s serving, and she has urgent business to attend to.

“Zachary! Zachary...”Elisa chased after Zachary’s car for a few steps and gave up.He refused to let her get into his car. Even if she lay under his wheels, he would not stop and simply send her to the afterlife.Elisa watched as his car, followed by his entourage of bodyguards, drove away.She stomped her feet.She ran here early in the morning to block his way, which she succeeded, and in return, he helped her a little. After all, his bodyguards had helped to push the car to the side of the road and prevented it from blocking other cars that were coming from behind.However, she was still upset that she was unable to ride in his car.Of course, she would not give up just like that.She would not give up before half a year.It had not been long since her public confession.Hang in there!One day, she would be able to sit in his car. She would be the only young woman who could sit in his car.Elisa, who was daydreaming, felt her mood improve.She called her butler and ask

Old Mrs. York peeked at Serenity’s stomach, which was flat and plain.Yes, her proud and awkward grandson said that he had not touched Serenity yet. The husband and wife were still pure. It was still too early for her to have a great-grandchild.Serenity disdained how cold Zachary was and could not bring herself to jump him, let alone sleep naked.As for Zachary...Old Mrs. York was worried.She suddenly had a thought. ‘Could the rumors be true? Does Zachary like men, or does he have some sort of physiological problem?‘He’s been married to Serenity for more than a month, and they live together, but he has never exercised his right as a husband.’Old Mrs. York decided to tell the cook at home to brew a nourishing soup for Zachary at noon and let Serenity send it to him to nourish his body. Maybe it would help in conceiving a great-grandchild for Old Mrs. York too.It would also help to mend the relationship between the couple.They could not keep up this cold war and live sepa

Old Mrs. York was anxious and wanted to slip away, but thought, ‘Wait, I can’t slip away. Elisa is already at the entrance. If I try to leave, I’ll be caught red-handed.‘I need to hide.’Thus, she calmly put down her cutlery and said to Serenity and Jasmine, “I’m full now. I have to go to the washroom.”With that, she got up and walked toward the washroom while saying, “When you get old, every trip to the washroom will take at least half an hour.”Serenity and Jasmine were speechless.“Serenity, are you there?”Elisa appeared just as Old Mrs. York walked away.She rushed in with a mesh bag of sea shrimps in her left hand and a similar bag of sea crabs in her right hand.“Serenity, come take them. They’re too heavy for me!”Elisa was a rich and pampered young lady. She usually had everything handed over to her on a silver platter and never did any labor, so she felt the two big bags of shrimps and crabs were heavy.When Serenity and Jasmine saw this, they rushed forward and t

“We just finished.”Jasmine quickly cleaned up the dishes, and Elisa asked out of curiosity, “There are four sets of cutlery. Is there someone else?”Jasmine said while cleaning up, “Serenity’s grandmother-in-law came over. She’s in the washroom now.”Elisa hummed and stopped asking.She was aware of Serenity’s marriage. Due to the trending news before, she even told her brother to fire John Hunt. She understood Serenity and the Hunt family’s disputes more than others, so undoubtedly she knew Serenity was married too.Not many people from the outside world knew about it.Elisa was not a nosy person, so she did not ask about Serenity’s love life.After Jasmine cleaned up the table, Serenity poured a glass of water for Elisa.“Why are you back from vacation so soon, Ms. Stone?”“It’s because I’m worried about my sweetheart, of course. I was with my parents by the beach for two days and came back to the city last night. I have something to tell you, Serenity. This morning, I went

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

Austin replied, “Both Mr. Louis and Mr. Phillip woke up very early, especially Mr. Phillip. He gets up earlier than Mr. Louis every morning. It’s really hard on him, getting up so early in such cold weather.”Sometimes, he himself felt like staying in bed a little longer, reluctant to leave the warm comfort of his blankets.Even after the New Year, Satbury remained quite cold. In contrast, over in Wiltspoon, the temperatures had begun to reach a high of over seventy degrees Fahrenheit in the daytime, with nighttime lows around fifty degrees.The two provinces and cities were simply incomparable. The temperatures in Wiltspoon were just so very comfortable for Satbury locals.Isabella smiled and said, “Phillip is just afraid he’ll get here too late and that you’ll assume he’s not coming over for breakfast, then not prepare any for him. He's such a little foodie.”The house was never short of snacks for the little ones. In fact, any goodies were always reserved for them first.Yet,

Even when she attended banquets, she would show up in formal clothing. Isabella did not remember the last time she wore a dress. Perhaps it was when she was in third grade. In fact, she liked wearing pretty princessy dresses when she was young. Her mother had told her that.As Isabella was the first child and extremely adorable, Delphine had dolled her up like a princess. Her pretty dresses filled the closet. Her parents, aunts, uncles, and relatives would always gift her many beautiful dresses. As she grew up, perhaps when she was in fourth grade, she stopped wearing dresses. Regardless of who gave her new pieces, she would refuse to wear them and give them to her cousins instead. After everyone realized she disliked dresses, they gradually stopped giving her them. Delphine had asked Isabella why she disliked wearing dresses. Isabella reasoned that she could not walk quickly enough while wearing one. She valued speed and efficiency. Delphine said she had alway

While the private chefs Ms. Isabella had hired in the past were respectful, they were leaning toward flattery instead of sincere dedication, like how Austin was toward Ms. Isabella.Dominic was experienced. He could sense that Ms. Isabella treated Austin differently. She was also a special existence to Austin. It was normal for young people to be attracted to each other. Initially, Dominic wanted to advise Austin not to even think about dating Ms. Isabella. However, upon discovering that Austin was a young master of a wealthy family, he decided not to interfere. Dominic was glad that he did nothing.Austin returned to the house. Instead of heading straight to the kitchen, he went upstairs. He stopped outside of Isabella’s room and knocked on the door lightly. No response came from within the room. Perhaps Austin was too soft when he knocked. He knocked on the door again with more force and asked, “Are you up yet, Ms. Isabella? It’s time to have breakfast.”Isabella w

Austin was extremely patient with the boys. Although they occasionally caused trouble, most of them were minor issues. They would never do something they were not allowed to do.After breakfast, Austin brought them their bags. With a boy in each hand, he left the house. It was to prevent the boys from saying he was playing favorites. Dominic was used to that scene. Initially, Austin was simply Ms. Isabella’s private chef. However, he gradually took on more responsibilities.He would take the two young masters to school. If he had time in the evening, he would also fetch them from school. Austin also made sure Louis and Phillip did their homework, supervised their hobby classes, and played with them. Sometimes, he would even teach them martial arts and train with them. Dominic felt Austin was an all-rounder. It seemed like there was nothing Austin could not do. No wonder Ms. Isabella thought highly of Austin. However, Austin was a young master of a wealthy family. He w

Louis and Phillip were downstairs having the breakfast Austin had prepared for them. The food was different every morning, and everything was delicious.Having gotten used to Austin’s cooking, Louis and Phillip could no longer stand the food provided in the school. They thought the food there was terrible. Louis was enrolled in an elementary school not far from home. As he was a first grader, he did not need to stay in the dormitories and could have his lunch and dinner at home. Phillip, who was a year younger than him, was still in preschool. He would have breakfast and dinner at home. Actually, the preschool did provide breakfast, but Phillip refused to eat in school and insisted on having breakfast at home. In order to eat the breakfast Austin made, he would get up early in the morning without the adults waking him. After putting on his clothes and washing up, he would head to Louis’s place with his bag. “Austin.”Louis suddenly asked, “Did my sister come back last n

Isabella had always thought Tati was teasing her. Therefore, she did not take her words seriously. She thought it was completely normal for Austin to treat her well as she was his boss. From Austin’s perspective, she was his source of income. Now that Isabella pondered about it deeper, she realized perhaps Austin did come to Satbury for her. It was not just to be her chef. He always said Grandma May only gave the York lads a year to pursue their fiancées. However, Austin had never left since he started working for Isabella. Even if he did, it was to accompany her on business trips. He was busy feeding and taking care of her every day and had never gone to pursue his so-called fiancée. He did not even try to gather information on her. Was he not anxious?A year would go by pretty quickly. Although it felt like it had not been long since Austin started working for Isabella, three months had passed. Time really flew. Three months had gone by in the blink of an eye. Neve
