Chapter 872
Author: Gu Lingfei
It was no secret to the whole of Wiltspoon what the Hunts had done to Serenity and her sister.

The Hunts put on airs and walked around town as the in-laws to the Yorks now that they realized Zachary was Mr. York. The Hunts took shamelessness to a whole new level.

“You must be kidding. The door’s right there. Get out right now!”

Annoyed by their brazenness, Serenity did not want to waste her manners on them and showed them the door.

John and the others fell back, but they only kept one foot out of the door.

They were counting on Old Mr. Hunt to face Serenity solo.

Since the old man was a senior, Serenity would not resort to violence no matter how angry she was.

“Serenity!”

Scowling, Old Mr. Hunt shouted Serenity’s name and waited until he got Serenity’s full attention before uttering, “We can leave but not before I get a million bucks. I can go back and look after your grandmom. I’ll take them to cause a scene at your husband’s office if you don’t give me the money.

    “Just you wait. I’ll kick up a fuss at your husband’s office and demand that he forks out the money. Otherwise, I’ll ask your in-laws instead. You won’t be able to show your face there. Your in-laws will find you an eyesore and kick you out!” threatened Old Mr. Hunt. That was what he intended to do. Prior to coming, his grandsons showed him the ropes in case Serenity and Liberty hated their guts too much to pay up. Now that Serenity was Mrs. York, she must want to keep up with her appearance more than ever. Serenity would pay them hush money for the sake of her in-laws’ reputation if they brazenly cause a commotion. The Hunts could make a racket at Zachary’s office or the Yorks’ family home if Serenity refused to give them money. Serenity was not on good terms with them, but it did not change the fact that they were family. Their existence would be an embarrassment to Serenity regardless. Serenity was unlikely to gain a foothold since she married into the York family as a n

    The Hunts treated the sisters more like enemies than families. “Here you are, my good grandson-in-law. Hurry up and do something about your wife. Serenity doesn’t know her manners. Without tough love from her parents, she hasn’t learned much about respect. I’m sure your family’s all about social graces since you’re an heir. You should divorce the uncultured girl. “You better keep her on a tight leash if you want to stay with her. Hit her if she refuses to listen. You need to beat her into submission. Her grandmom used to be defiant, but I gave her a beating every day until she did everything I say. “Serenity drenched my clothes. You might want to give me some money to get a change of clothes.” The stoic air around Zachary gave Old Mr. Hunt the chills. Still, Old Mr. Hunt psyched himself up to put forth his opinion without shame. Jasmine was tempted to whack the old man. A grandfather like Old Mr. Hunt was unheard of. She had a strong reason to doubt that Serenity’s father

    There was no justice in the world. Old Mr. Hunt’s other granddaughters were rather dutiful, but the insolent granddaughter was one who bagged herself a rich husband. Seeing that Granddad had made a quick exit, John and the others had no reason to stick around.They all ran back to the cars and sped away. Zachary plonked the bucket down onto the ground, spattering water onto his pants. “I dare you not to run, old man!” Zachary shouted at the runaway cars. He was thinking of getting his bodyguards to haul Old Mr. Hunt into the car for them to drive away if the old man would not budge. It made things a lot easier as the old man did not hang on for long and took off on his own. Serenity and Jasmine emerged from the shop. Jasmine said, “Seren, are these people here to patch things up? Well, don’t make peace with them even if they make a public apology online. They’re jealous that things are going well for you.” With a long face, Serenity uttered, “I have no intention of mak

    Mr. Zachary said something about putting his dignity aside to win his wife back. He seemed to care about his dignity when it came down to it though. Jim rushed into the car to grab the roses for Mr. Zachary. “Sir, these are the flowers you bought for the missus. You haven’t given them to her.” Jim handed the bouquet to Zachary. Zachary snapped out of his thoughts. That was right. He bought Seren some roses. Grabbing the bouquet from Jim, Zachary uttered in a husky voice, “I’ll let Sam know to double your bonus.” Although over the moon, Jim remained respectful on the surface. “The bonus doesn’t matter to me so long as you and the missus can get back together.” “I’ll use your bonus to buy my wife some flowers then.” Jim was speechless. All Jim did was pledge his loyalty, but Mr. Zachary took away his doubled bonus. Everybody turned their heads away to hide their laughter. With the bouquet in hand, Zachary was about to step into the shop when he pulled his leg back

    “Why are you here, Zachary?” asked Elisa, baffled. There was no reason for a man of Zachary’s status to be here. However, it was Zachary in the flesh. Unable to believe her eyes, Elisa blinked a few times before taking a closer look at the man. Sure enough, it was the Zachary she knew. Elisa’s eyes widened in shock when she saw the bouquet between Zachary and Serenity. Zachary was even holding Serenity’s hand. The only logical explanation that came to mind was that the man simply resembled Zachary, but he was not Zachary.How could Zachary, an aloof man who never went anywhere without his security detail to keep young women away, possibly hold another woman’s… Ah, before she forgot, Zachary had a wife now, and his wife had his heart. It was rumored that he spoiled his wife crazy. Although Elisa had never seen his wife, she believed Zachary was the type to give his wife all the love in the world. For Zachary, it was forever once he fell in love. That was why Elisa did not

    “Seren, what kind of cock and bull story does he give you? Has he been stringing you along that he was just a salaryman?” Serenity thought Elisa would be livid and cut ties with her the moment the latter found out that Zachary was Mr. York. When faced with the truth, Elisa was fuming but the anger was targeted at Zachary for deceiving both parties. Elisa would have quit on him if Zachary had told her he was married right off the bat. Nevertheless, Zachary kept his mouth shut, leading Elisa on that he was single. Elisa was all over him and somewhat became the homewrecker in someone’s marriage. Out of all people, it had to be the marriage of the cousin she hit it off with. “When did you get your marriage license, Seren?” Elisa suddenly asked. Serenity replied, “Early October, I believe.” It was a hasty marriage, and Serenity was simply looking for a marriage of convenience, so the date was not that important to her. All she remembered was that it was somewhere at the beginnin

    Serenity lifted her gaze to meet his eyes. Alas, Zachary had turned away and walked off. She stared blankly as Zachary took large strides away. The hurt sneaked up on her. Serenity had no idea whether it was because of him or herself. Jasmine and Elisa were talking about something outside when Zachary came out of the shop with a grimacing look. Without looking at the girls, he made a beeline to his usual ride—the Rolls Royce. Zachary had gotten rid of his security team, but the chauffeur stayed behind in case Zachary needed a ride. Seeing that Zachary was out, the chauffeur got out of the car and opened the door for him. Zachary, together with the Rolls Royce, disappeared out of Jasmine and Elisa’s sight in no time. Elisa and Jasmine were left staring at each other. The girls immediately turned on their heels and rushed back into the shop. Serenity was not behind the cash register. Her crafting tools sat quietly on the cash register with trails of blood all over the

    “It has nothing to do with Zachary. I cut myself by accident.” Acting like everything was okay, Serenity said to Elisa, “Elisa, the thing about me and Zachary…” “I don’t blame you, Seren. You don’t have to explain or apologize to me. It’s not like we just met. I’m only furious that Zachary lied to both of us. He made a monkey out of us cousins.” Moments ago, Jasmine had told Elisa the whole story about Serenity finding out Zachary’s identity. Elisa’s heart went out to her cousin who was fooled the whole time. “Seren, I gave up on Zachary a long time ago. I got over Zachary the moment I found out he was married. I feel more at peace after I backed off and stopped thinking about him for a while. Don’t let me come in the way of your decision. Lying aside, he’s someone you can spend the rest of your life with. “Of course, since he played you like a fiddle, I hope you take your time in forgiving him. At least, make him suffer for a bit.” Now that Elisa thought about it, she was

    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.

    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

    When Austin reached the door, he stopped and turned to say, “Ms. Isabella, I only care about my future wife. Other young women are simply strangers to me.“I’m polite to other women when I need to be. If they’re unimportant, I’ll ignore them. Even if that woman is my boss, I won’t cross any lines. If I do, there must be a reason behind it.“Get some rest, Ms. Isabella. You might have a headache when you wake up tomorrow. I’ll prepare a warm honey drink for you in the morning.”After speaking, Austin left. Isabella turned to look at where he last stood. What did his words mean?He said he only cared about his future wife.Aside from this lady, he would not step out of line with any other young woman, even if she were his boss. What did he mean by crossing lines?Was it showing concern? Did he mean that if his boss was a young woman but not his fiancée, he would simply do what was required of him without any personal feelings involved? Was that what he meant?If so, was

    Isabella was cold sometimes, but that was not her true personality. She was a reasonable person. Austin was not worried that he would be mistreated as a live-in son-in-law. “Ms. Isabella.”Isabella looked toward him and waited for him to speak. He asked, “This may be abrupt, but may I ask what your ideal type is?”Isabella was stunned. Why did the question come to her? What was the type of man she liked?‘Someone like Austin,’ she thought. After a moment of silence, she said, “I like men who are capable, responsible, and have correct values. Even if his family isn’t as financially well-off as mine, I don’t mind so long as he’s honest, competent, and sincere about his feelings for me.“Of course, it’ll be great if we have the same social status. That way, we’ll have similar perspectives and more common topics. If we get married, we’ll be joining forces instead of it being a one-way financial aid.”“Although you can accept someone who isn’t from a similar family backgrou

    After a moment of silence, Isabella said, “It’s okay. I know I was forcing it.”There was no point in asking Austin if he did not want to reveal anything. If he wanted to tell her, he would do so without her asking. However, her curiosity spiked with his silence. She was eager to know who his fiancée was. He was already so protective of his fiancée even though he had not met her before. It made Isabella jealous. It was her first time feeling that kind of emotion throughout her life. Although it was not a strong feeling, she still felt it. “You weren’t forcing me to tell you. You were simply curious. Most people have a curious side. It’s only natural for you to be inquisitive as well.”Austin said gently, “It’s not just you. Those who knew that my nana had chosen fiancées for my brothers and me were also curious about who the ladies were.“To be honest, we didn’t even know Nana had been choosing fiancées for us since a few years ago until she handed their pictures to us
