Married At First Sight Chapter 131 Gu Lingfei: Married at First Sight Novel Chapter 131 Serenity was unaffected by the traffic congestion as she rode her electric bike.

It took more than ten minutes to arrive at York Corporation.

She stopped the bike and turned to Elisa and said, “We‘re here, Miss.” Elisa returned the helmet to Serenity and thanked her.

“It‘s just a small favor. No need to thank me.” Elisa looked at her and asked, “May I know what‘s your name? You look really familiar for some reason. Have we met before?” “My last name is Hunt. I also quite like you, Miss. Unfortunately, we‘ve never met before.” Beautiful women had always left an impression on her, but she had no recollection of this lady.

“Your last name is Hunt? Oh, I remember now. There was news about an unfilial granddaughter that went viral before. The granddaughter‘s last name was also Hunt, and there was a photo attached as well. I think you look a bit like one of the little girls in the photo. Was that you?” The “unfilial granddaughter” news had left a deep impression on Elisa, and she remembered the childhood photo of Serenity and her sister that the Hunt family released.

Back then, she not only scolded this trending news for distracting the netizens‘ attention, but also the Hunt sisters for being unfilial. Unexpectedly , when the truth was revealed, she scolded the Hunt family instead.

Her mother had told her off, saying that she had no patience and critical thinking skills despite being in her twenties. She simply went along and scolded the Hunt sisters because of a one–sided story.

Since she was rebuking the Hunt sisters at home, her mother got curious about the news and wanted to read about it. Unfortunately, after the tables turned, the Hunt family was overwhelmed by the netizens‘ lambast and quickly swiped clean all their posts. It was clear that the Hunt family had connections of their own.

The eldest son of a Hunt‘s relative was a manager in a company under Stone Group. After the situation turned one–eighty, the majority of angry netizens went after the Hunt family and dug up John‘s identity. They even went to Stone Group‘s official page to leave messages, asking the headquarters to dismiss John.

Serenity did not expect to be recognized through a mere childhood photo of hers. Thinking of how she now had the upper hand, she smiled and admitted it. “You have both good eyes and a good memory, Miss.” “There‘s no way I won‘t remember you. The viral news about you divided the attention of many netizens. Even though the situation is reversed now, it‘s still trending on a lot of news sites.” Serenity‘s eyes flashed at Elisa‘s words, and she asked tentatively, “Miss, are you the daughter of the Stone family?” Elisa praised her, “You‘re really smart. You got it in one.” Serenity laughed too. “That‘s such a coincidence. I also have to thank you for stepping in and suppressing the trending search. It‘s thanks to you that my sister and I didn‘t suffer much. You must be here to deliver breakfast to Mr. York, right?” “Yep.” The two got along rather well, and for the first time, Elisa chatted pleasantly with a person she had just met.

“Then you should hurry inside , Ms. Stone. It‘s already eight. Mr. York will be hungry if you don‘t deliver the food.” Elisa looked at the time and said, “He probably hasn‘t arrived yet since there‘s a traffic jam. I was trying to reach the company before he arrived. Fortunately, you gave me a ride.” “No problem. You helped me with that incident of mine, so I‘m grateful to you.” Serenity was in disbelief that fate worked so mysteriously. They were from completely different worlds, but they ended up crossing paths. Elisa smiled. “You don‘t need to thank me. I did it for myself.” At that moment, Zachary‘s motorcade was approaching from afar.

Elisa was exceptionally familiar with her beloved‘s car. As soon as she saw the procession of luxury cars approaching, she stopped chatting with Serenity. She quickly took out her business card and shoved it to Serenity. “Ms. Hunt, since you helped me today, you can just call me if you need anything in the future. I‘ll definitely do my best to help you.” Married At First Sight Chapter 132 Gu Lingfei: Married at First Sight Novel Chapter 132 Elisa did not want to owe Serenity a favor, but also because she felt she could hit it off with Serenity. Thus, she gave the latter her business card.

Serenity also saw the line of luxury cars and said understandingly, “You should get going, Ms. Stone. I wish you all the best.” “Thank you.” Elisa hugged the bouquet and carried the insulated lunch box. Instead of running toward the luxury cars, she went straight to the building‘s entrance and stood in the middle of the gate.

Serenity was dumbfounded.

Ms. Stone was truly formidable. Zachary was late to arrive at the office. Although he left early today, he had to drop by the villa to get something. After leaving the villa, the car drove for a short while before getting stuck in a traffic jam. Regardless of the car one drove or the people in the car, it was equal in the eyes of a morning rush congestion; nobody could get away with it.

The bodyguard sitting in the passenger seat happened to be Jim, who had brilliant eyesight. He saw Serenity at a glance and immediately turned around to Zachary and said, “Mr. Zachary, the Missus and Ms. Stone are together.” Zachary frowned. ‘How did they end up together?‘ They did not even know each other.

:

He looked ahead. He could not recognize Elisa, but he recognized Serenity. After all, they lived in the same house for a period of time and even shared a kiss before. He would have to poke his own eyes out if he still could not recognize her.

“Ignore them,” he said in a low voice, leaning his body back in the car seat.

Their distance grew closer by the second.

Jim was afraid of being identified by Serenity and looked away deliberately, so the woman could not see his face.

The motorcade did not stop in front of Serenity. She watched the convoy drive ahead and sighed in her heart. For some reason, the Rolls Royce looked a little familiar. It was like the one she saw several times in the neighborhood.

However, when she recalled Mr. York‘s identity, she automatically wrote of the possibility of the car being the same one she saw in her neighborhood.

She watched as the motorcade finally stopped in front of the fearless Elisa and smiled to hersell. It was said that women feared being pestered by men, but that was also true on the contrary.

‘Elisa is bold and dauntless. I believe she‘ll soon win over Mr.York.‘ Serenity made a cheering motion toward Elisa, then made a detour with her e–bike and left.

While in the car, Zachary turned away from her as well, not wanting his wife to see his face. When the car passed by Serenity, he turned his head to see her pumping her fist toward Elisa. He had to force himself to calm down to prevent himself from spitting a mouthful of blood.

It was no wonder he did not see Elisa‘s car. She was able to rush here to stand in front of the gate before he arrived, possibly because his wife gave her a ride on her e bike.

However, how did they meet?

Judging by how Serenity cheered Elisa on with her fist pump, that must mean she knew the latter‘s identity. It was however reasonable to say that there was no way they were acquainted.

Elisa was born into the peak of luxury, and she was loved by everyone in her family. She rarely even deigned to look at the other daughters of the Stone family. How did she befriend Serenity? Zachary was baffled.

Married At First Sight Chapter 133 Gu Lingfei: Married at First Sight Novel Chapter 133 Elisa blocked the entrance to the building, so the driver had no choice but to stop the car.

“Mr. Zachary, shall I go down and pull Ms. Stone away?” The driver turned his head and asked for Zachary‘s instruction.

After a moment of silence, Zachary wound down the car window.

As soon as Elisa saw his window down, she was overjoyed and immediately bounced over, carrying the bouquet of flowers and an insulated lunch box.

“Zachary.” She finally met the man she had been longing for. Although she often came here to profess her love, the truth was she had not seen him in person for a long time.

She missed him so much!

He still had the same cold look, but he was still the most handsome man in her mind.

Her gaze trickled down to his tightly pursed lips, and she felt the urge to give him a kiss or two.

She wondered how soft his lips would be.

Elisa looked at Zachary like he was her prey and that made him frown “Ms. Stone.” “Zachary, just call me Elisa.” Elisa smiled brightly and stuffed the insulated lunch box through the car window to him and said, “I specially brought you breakfast. Eat it while it‘s hot. Also, this bouquet is for you.” Zachary did not accept the lunch box, let alone the bouquet. He was a man, so he did not like flowers.

“The traffic congestion was heavy today. How did you get here so early?” He just wanted to know how Elisa and Serenity met.

Hearing his question, Elisa was like an open book and said, “I‘m pretty smart. I parked in front of someone‘s store and told my bodyguard to come over and drive it back. Then, I stopped someone on an electric bike and came all the way here unhindered.” So that was it.

That was how they met.

“Zachary, it‘s really amazing. I raised my hand to stop a random person, but she turned out to be that ‘unfilial granddaughter‘ who went viral on the news recently. Her name is Serenity Hunt. She‘s actually quite nice, and we hit it off quite nicely.” Zachary spat in his heart, ‘Elisa is the most famously unruly and contemptuous lady in Wiltspoon, but she actually hit it off with Serenity.

However, when he thought of Serenity‘s character, he felt that it was only normal for Elisa to like her and befriend her.

“Drive!” Zachary commanded the driver with his deep voice since he had his question answered.

“Zachary, keep the flowers. Also, remember to eat breakfast. I rushed over here just to give this to you. I made it with love for…” The car roared ahead and Elisa was left behind.

She was only able to throw the bouquet of flowers into the car and not the lunch box. After all, the food would spill all over the car if she threw it in and that would definitely anger Zachary.

It was a pleasant surprise that Zachary spoke to her today, so she did not want to make him angry.

However, the bouquet of flowers she threw into the car was soon thrown out by him. The flowers landed on the ground pitifully Elisa tried running after the car, but she could not catch up and had no choice but to give up. She did not dare to barge directly into York Corporation for fear that Zachary would instruct security to carry her and throw her out to the roadside. That would be humiliating.

When Zachary walked into the office building, he met his administrative executive, Josh.

Josh glanced at his boss‘s hand, which was empty today.

He leaned in and teased in a whisper, “Why did the married man not bring his made–with–love breakfast to eat in the office today?” Married At First Sight Chapter 134 Gu Lingfei: Married at First Sight Novel Chapter 134 “I ate in the car.” Josh was speechless.

“By the way, I saw something interesting earlier. Do you want to hear about it?” Zachary gave him a look and walked ahead. His handsome face remained expressionless, and his lips pursed into a line as he stayed silent.

Josh hated that attitude, but he could not stop his chatty mouth from saying, “I arrived early and just so happened saw your missus send Ms. Stone here, so I stopped to figure out what was going on.

“Before your car arrived at the company, your missus and Ms. Stone chatted rather amicably. Boss, your wife and admirer seem to like each other and are ready to be good friends. What do you think of it?” Zachary could not be bothered to even look at Josh, so he simply entered the elevator , leaving behind the chatty administrative executive.

Josh did not get angry either and chuckled in his heart,‘ This will definitely be the drama–of–the–year.‘ He really wanted to know what Serenity Hunt would do if his boss‘s identity was revealed one day.

Remembering how Elisa ran over to send him flowers and breakfast again, Zachary called Clive and said coldly, “Mr. Stone, manage your sister well, or don‘t blame me for being impolite.” There was a limit to his patience.

Clive had a headache. “Mr. York, Elisa didn‘t do anything out of line either. She just likes you and is trying to pursue you. I‘ve advised her countless times, but what am I supposed to do? Break her legs?” He really could not do anything about his sister.

Even if he got people to watch her, she would find a way to lose them.

“Zachary, you and I are about the same age. I‘ve been married for several years, but you only have one suitor.

Since my sister is the first one to woo you, just… be patient with her.” Zachary hung up immediately. He knew what kind of person Elisa was.

Even if he ignored her or acted rudely toward her, she would bounce back up. Unless she actually broke her legs, not even ruining her reputation would make her give up. Clive‘s expression fell after the call ended. He could not help but call his sister and lecture her again. Elisa was already on her way home by taxi.

“Clive, I‘m on my way home. I didn‘t do anything shocking today. My IQ is limited, so I can‘t think of anything extraordinary.” “…If you would spend the effort you put into chasing after Zachary to accompany Mom instead, she‘d be so much happier.” “I do spend time with Mom, but she‘s suffering from an illness of the mind, which requires medicine for the heart. It‘s true that I‘m her darling, but I‘m not her medicine.” Audrey‘s wish was to find her sister who had been separated for decades.

Her sister had gone through many families in the system, and Audrey no longer knew where she could be.

All Audrey wanted was to reunite with her sister in this lifetime.

“By the way, I need your help with something,” Elisa asked Clive.

“What is it?” As long as she did not ask him to help her find a way to pursue Zachary, he was quite willing to help his sister.

“I met a girl earlier, Serenity Hunt. She made quite a good impression on me, and we clicked pretty well. It‘s about that online incident. As I told you before, Serenity‘s relatives went too far. Can you just dismiss that what‘s – his – name Hunt guy? Don‘t let him affect the reputation of our company.” Clive said indifferently, “There‘s no need for your brother to handle something trivial like this personally.” “Did someone already get to him?” “I didn’t do anything. He was probably already suspended from his duties.” His subordinates would handle the matter.

John was only serving in a branch company. Although he was capable , the incident blew up and revealed his true colors. Clive had no desire for a person like that.

Married At First Sight Chapter 135 Gu Lingfei: Married at First Sight Novel Chapter 135  “Good. It‘s best if they all lose their jobs and then get cursed to death by everyone. Let them have a taste of what Internet violence is like. They‘re completely inhumane.” Although Elisa was a little unruly, she was still somewhat virtuous.

Furthermore , she was very fond of Serenity, so she was willing to avenge Serenity.

Think of it as returning the favor.

‘After all, it‘s because she sent me to York Corporation that I was able to see Zachary today. He even talked to me.

“Clive, I‘m going home to accompany Mom. You get back to work,” Elisa was done talking and hung up the phone.

She did not want to take up more of her brother‘s precious time.

The old Stone residence was not far from the old York residence, but they were on different routes.

If they were on the same route, Elisa would have blocked Zachary‘s car on his way home. Well, Zachary rarely went back to the old York residence anyway, so it would be hard for her to block the road even if they were on the same path.

As the second most powerful family in Wiltspoon, the old Stone residence was very well restored and spanned a huge area. The York residence was built in the style of a manor, and the Stone family followed suit to build their home the same way.

In a magnificent hall, a middle–aged woman sat on the sofa while holding a photo in her hand. Her eyes stared stilly at the photo for a long time.

Elisa walked into this scene and took the photo from her mother‘s hand when she approached . She said, “Mom, don‘t keep staring at this photo all day. If Aunt is alive, we‘ll definitely find her. Cheer up. Don‘t be depressed and worried all the time.” Darrell brought over a glass of water. He heard what his daughter had to say and echoed, “Elisa is right, honey. Don‘t keep looking at the photo. We‘ve arranged for many people to look for your sister. I believe we‘ll get news about her soon.” He handed the glass to his wife.

When the couple was young, they were busy with work and did not have much time to spend together. When Clive took over, Darrell retired and wanted to spend time with his wife as well as live out their old age peacefully.

He did not expect his wife to be constantly depressed as of late because of his sister in law whom he had never met. Darrell was worried and anxious for Audrey‘s behavior, but there was nothing he could do.

The two sisters had been separated for a long time, and his sister–in–law might have forgotten that she had a sister. She was handed over from one family to another, so no one knew which home she landed in. The other half of the photo might not even be in her hands anymore.

It was difficult to find someone by using just a picture.

Audrey accepted the glass of water handed to her by her husband, took a sip, and then retrieved the photo from her daughter‘s hand. She put the glass down, carefully returned the photo back into an album, and closed it with a sigh. “These days, I keep having nightmares of my sister being beaten and scolded. She had a miserable life.” “That‘s because you keep thinking about it all day.” Elisa sat down next to her mother and held the latter‘s arm affectionately. “Mom, the weather is still hot. I want to go to the beach for a vacation, so you should accompany me. Let‘s go out fishing and eat fresh seafood,” Elisa said sweetly.

“So you don‘t have to go and block Zachary‘s route every day?” Audrey nudged her daughter‘s pretty nose at the change of subject and teased, “I thought you‘d be willing to give up on food and sleep just to block the gate of York Corporation every day.” “The pursuit of true love can‘t be accomplished in a day or two. I also have to be filial to my mother. Come on, Mom. Come with me to the beach for a holiday , okay?” Darrell chimed in, “Go out and take a break, honey. Don‘t coop up at home with that photo all the time.” Ever since Audrey could afford it, she had never stopped looking for her only sister. However, decades passed without any results.

Although her son took over and continued the search, Darrell did not hold out much hope.

Married At First Sight Chapter 136 Gu Lingfei: Married at First Sight Novel Chapter 136 Darrell did not even know if his sister-in-law was dead or alive.

“Maybe we’ll run into your sister or her children by chance if we go out on a vacation.” After a moment of silence , Audrey said, “My sister was still so young when we separated. Women go through drastic changes from how they were when they were little. Even if I happen to meet her children, who knows if I’ll be able to recognize them as my niece or nephews?” “Come on, let’s go for a holiday!” Not being able to brush off her daughter’s thoughtfulness, Audrey roused her spirits and agreed to go on a beach vacation with Elisa.

Seeing that her mother agreed, Elisa exchanged a glance with her father, then thought of other topics to talk to her mother about. As she chattered, she brought up today’s events.

She said happily, “Mom, I saw Zachary today. He stopped the car and even wound down the window to talk to me. Unfortunately, the bouquet I stuffed into his car was thrown out by him.” Audrey was speechless, “I also met a new friend. Her name is Serenity. For some reason, she gave me a familiar feeling the moment I saw her. It was as if I felt a sense of kinship with her. She even helped me, so I left her my name card.” Audrey asked, “Was it that poor woman who was morally blackmailed by her relatives?” “Yep, that’s the one.” “What a small world. The news about you two went viral at the same time, and out of the thousands of people, the person whose bike you stopped happened to be her. She also actually agreed to send you to York Corporation to chase after Zachary.” Audrey teased her daughter, “What’s even rarer is that you actually consider her a friend. Darrell, let’s keep an eye on the sky later and see if there are any pigs flying. I can’t believe your darling daughter actually made a friend.” “Mom!” Elisa cried out, disgruntled.

“What’s wrong with me making a friend? I just like Serenity. She gives me a sense of familiarity. She even supported me and encouraged me to pursue Zachary.” Audrey was also very helpless regarding her daughter’s infatuation with Zachary. “You would forget even your last name when it comes to Zachary.” However, she indeed admired Zachary. If her daughter did successfully win him over, she would be overjoyed nonetheless.

There were only a few outstanding men like Zachary, and the York family was outstanding too. If two of their families could be united by marriage, it would not only ease the discord between them, but also make her daughter happy for a lifetime. “Bring Serenity back and introduce her to me when you’re free another day.” Audrey said as she felt that her daughter had too few friends.

It was rare for her daughter to make a friend, so she wanted to meet the girl who could make her daughter feel a sense of kinship at first sight.

“Sure. We’ll have to see if she contacts me first. I’ll bring her back to meet you when we become closer. Wait, no. Mom, you’re making it sound as if I’m bringing a girlfriend back to meet you. I’m your daughter!” Audrey poked her daughter’s head in amusement.“ You’re the one who got the wrong idea. Don’t blame it on me.” Elisa playfully stuck out her tongue.

She might have to take the initiative to contact Serenity.

However, there was no harm in that. Since she liked Serenity, she did not mind making the first move. It was just like how she loved Zachary. Since she loved him, she pursued him on her own accord and made her feelings known!

Married At First Sight Chapter 137 Gu Lingfei: Married at First Sight Novel Chapter 137 When Serenity got back to her store, she saw Shawn there. She smiled at and greeted him. “Shawn, don‘t you have work today?” Shawn looked at her with adoration hidden deep in his eyes and said, “I worked overtime last night, so I can go in a little later today. How come you‘re late today?” He asked seemingly casually, but in fact, he wanted to inquire about Serenity‘s recent situation with her husband Jasmine said that Serenity‘s husband had helped to suppress the trending search and even accompanied her back to her hometown to collect evidence for the counterattack, so Serenity was grateful to him.

Shawn thought, ‘I also want to help Serenity, but she didn‘t give me a chance to. I called her that day, but she didn‘t answer the phone.‘ She had only sent him a message saying that she was fine afterward “There was a pretty lady asking for help on my way here. I was late because I lent her a hand. Oh, that smells good. What are you eating, Jasmine?” Serenity was planning on going to the cashier to sit down when she smelled the aroma. She spun on her heel and walked to the small kitchen.

Shawn followed her, wanting to catch up to her and hug her in his arms. However, he had no guts to do so. He was not brazen enough to so much as flirt with her because he perceived his accomplishments had yet to warrant such a bold act.

He loved her and therefore he had to respect her. Even if he wanted to be close to her, hug her, or even kiss her, he had to suppress it desperately because she was now married.

His heart clenched in pain at that thought. In Serenity‘s eyes, he was just a younger brother. Even if she needed a man for a flash marriage, she would never consider him.

When Jasmine remained silent, Shawn said to Serenity, “I brought some food from home for you and Jas to eat.” He sent a loving breakfast to Serenity and Jasmine. The Lowe family was wealthy too, and the chef at home was from a five–star hotel. The family paid him handsomely to cook for them since his food was especially delicious. Furthermore, since all three of them were childhood friends, he was familiar with their preferences.

“Lucky me.” Serenity enjoyed with Jasmine the food brought by Shawn Shawn watched the two ladies eat with relish, and he could not stop the grin forming at the corners of his mouth.

He asked with a smile , “Serenity , when are you free to invite me to a meal?” “This Saturday. I‘ll treat you to lunch. What do you want to eat? Jasmine, join us too. We don‘t get much business during the weekend, so there‘s no harm if we close the shop for one day. You guys will be nagged by your family about when you would get married if you stay home, so why not come out to eat together?” Jasmine readily agreed, “Sure.” She was also afraid to stay at home and get an earful from her parents during the weekends.

Her mother wanted her to marry into a rich family to enjoy glory and wealth like her aunt. She felt like her ears were about to fall off with how much her mother had been badgering her. Her father was slightly better, saying that it would be more appropriate to find a family with a background comparable to theirs, so no one was higher in status than the other.

“There‘s a restaurant with good food next to Beans and Cream. The place isn‘t too upscale , but it‘s not too bad either. The food is affordable, so business is booming. Let‘s eat there. After lunch, we can go next door to Beans and Cream to enjoy a cup of coffee. After all, that‘s the most high–class cafe in the city.” The last time Serenity accompanied her friend to a blind date at Beans and Cream, she felt that it had a pleasant ambiance, but she did not notice what shops were next to it. She wanted to treat Shawn to a meal, but he unexpectedly proposed that venue for lunch. Nevertheless, she had no reason to refuse.

Married At First Sight Chapter 138 Gu Lingfei: Married at First Sight Novel Chapter 138 Serenity replied breezily, “Okay, it’s settled then.” Shawn was pleased too.

He was looking forward to Saturday arriving. Several cars suddenly stopped in front of the bookstore. Sawnn said, “I’ll go take a look.” He turned around and left.

Soon, he returned and said to Serenity, “It’s your relatives.” Serenity had just finished eating. She wiped her mouth with a tissue and said, “Since they’re here, I guess I can’t continue to be scared of them.” She was not surprised that those outrageous people found this place.

Thanks to the blessings of a majority of the netizens, her uncles and cousins’ jobs were exposed. They also had good connections, and the incident made the trending news twice, so it was easy for them to find Serenity and her sister.

“Serenity.” The Hunt family brothers entered, led by Mike. A total of eight of them came, all dressed in branded goods and holding a set of keys in their hands.

They shook their keys from time to time as if the keys were made of gold.

However, they looked rather exhausted. It seemed like Serenity’s retaliation had hit them hard. They could not stand being scolded by the angry netizens.

Serenity did not inquire about her grandmother’s situation in the hospital. A kind-hearted person had sent her a private message, telling her that her grandmother could not have peace in the hospital. Many people ran to the ward to criticize her, infuriating the shrewish old woman.

The group of filial sons and grandsons were in the hospital, but they could not even protect a single patient. Heh!

“Oh, what brings all of you here at the same time? You even brought the whole party with you.” She had many cousin brothers, but none of her cousin sisters came to the city. At the beginning when there was a lot of fake material exposed to the internet to garner attention, the uninformed netizens used their words as guns aimed at Serenity and her sister. In the entire Hunt family, not a single person stood up for the sisters.

Serenity walked to the cashier’s desk, sat down on a chair, and took out her tools for crafting as well as the materials she had prepared. Then, she started working on the miniature tree she promised to give to Zachary, as well as the lucky cat.

“I don’t have that many stools in my shop, so I won’t tell you to sit. If you want to say something, then say it. I’m listening.” Serenity was making her craft as she spoke. Her attitude ignited something in the Hunt brothers’ hearts.

Mike took a few deep breaths and spoke gently,“ Serenity, we’re a close knitted family and we share a blood as well. Can you not go that far? Yes, we were wrong. We apologize for that. However, our grandparents are also your grandparents.

“They’re old and can’t withstand torment. It’s fine if you’re unwilling to pay for Grandmom’s treatment.

There are a lot of us, so if each of us chips in a little, it’ll be enough for her medical bills. However, you should at least go to the hospital to visit her. Grandmom was heartbroken at the things you said about us online. I’ve lost count of the amount of time she cried. It’s harmful to her condition.

“Serenity, delete that post of yours, and we’ll consider this matter closed. No matter what, we’re still family. You won’t be happy if we suffer too.” After Mike was done with his speech, Serenity looked up at him and said in amusement, “Why won’t I be happy? I didn’t make anything up and slander you guys. I just stated the facts.

“As for visiting Grandmom in the hospital… I actually thought of visiting her and wondered how much money to give. Of course, I can’t pay for the medical fees. More than ten years ago, they said they don’t need Liberty and I to take care of them while they’re alive. They don’t need us to bury them when they die either. I also have a hard life and don’t make a lot of money. I don’t have much left after deducting all the necessary expenses.” Married At First Sight Chapter 139 Gu Lingfei: Married at First Sight Novel Chapter 139 “However, after being morally blackmailed by you guys who deliberately distorted the truth and being labeled as someone who‘s unfilial, I decided not to visit her anymore. I won‘t give her any money either. All of you have scolded me online, but now you want me to walk up to her just to get another scolding?” “Serenity, they‘re our grandparents. You won‘t die from a little scolding by them. Although you‘re not obligated to support them, anyone with a conscience would give them some living expenses. It‘s been so many years, but your sister and you have never gone back to visit them or give them money for maintenance. Well, if you‘re still able to sleep at night, then we won‘t say anything about “We have already deleted our blog post, so you should delete yours too. Do you know what impact your post had on all of us? We can sue you for cyberbullying. However, since we‘re cousins, we had decided to negotiate with you privately. There‘s no need to bring this matter into court.” The one who spoke was John, the most promising person in that generation of the Hunt family. He spoke with superiority and arrogance with his tone pompous and self – righteous, as if lecturing Serenity.

Through what he said, he was still accusing Serenity and Liberty of not being filial to their grandparents because they did not pay them living expenses or a visit.

However, he conveniently ignored the agreement the seniors had signed stating that Serenity and Liberty did not have to support them through life nor attend their funeral.

Serenity sneered. “Go ahead and sue me. I‘ll wait for the court summons. Also, I‘m cyberbullying you? Weren‘t you the ones who cyberbullied Liberty and I? What, you‘re allowed to bully us, but we‘re not allowed to clarify the facts? I didn‘t hire people to purposefully mislead public scrutiny either. The netizens doxed you guys because they couldn‘t stand you.

“Yeah, we‘re unfilial and didn‘t give our grandparents any living expenses . However, may I ask how much do you give to them per month, Mr. Hunt? How many times do you go back to visit them?

“Some people really can‘t be expected to have a conscience. Do you remember how Liberty and I got kicked out of the house back then? And how was our house forcefully seized by others? You were the one who benefited the most. They named you an adopted son of my parents! Ptui!

“You‘ve gotten so used to living off someone else‘s fortune, and you haven‘t had enough? John Hunt, let me tell you, I‘m never deleting that post. Sue me if you dare. I‘ll even invite the media to broadcast our lawsuit live!

“The estate is under my parents‘ name, so I can use the lawsuit to make that clear. Don‘t tell me that you‘re my parents‘ adopted son. My parents had no son when they died. Your adoption was just an excuse to occupy the property left by my parents.” John went pale.

He had no way to refute.

Thinking of how he had been suspended from his job and would most likely lose the position he had struggled years to get, he suppressed his anger, softened his expression , and said gently, “Serenity, I was wrong. Be the bigger person and don‘t hold it against us.

“Grandmom‘s condition is critical now. No matter what mistakes she had made in the past, she‘s still our grandmother. Since she‘s old and ill, just forgive her and come with us to the hospital to visit her.” The Hunt family‘s plan was to let Serenity visit her grandmother in the hospital to ease both side‘s animosity. Furthermore, it would send the message to the public that they had reconciled, so the public would stop throwing eggs at the family.

All of them had been affected by this incident, Being scolded by the netizens was a trivial matter, However, it had ended up affecting their work and business as well.

The two elderly were still stubborn and refused to bow down. However, when they heard that their children and grandchildren‘s jobs were affected, they felt sorry for them. That was the only reason they agreed to let their grandchildren find Serenity to negotiate.

They knew that Liberty was just a housewife now, and this matter was mainly handled by Serenity, so they went straight to Serenity and did not bother Liberty.

“I heard that you‘re married. If your husband is free, bring him along to the hospital so Grandmom can meet him and test him. Don‘t end up like your sister.” From what she just heard, Serenity realized that her cousins had figured out her and Liberty‘s situation. They were rather capable.

“Save your breath, John. If she doesn‘t go, just smash up her store!” Married At First Sight Chapter 140 Gu Lingfei: Married at First Sight Novel Chapter 140 Serenity‘s youngest cousin was only seventeen or eighteen years old. It was the age whereby impulse and hot–bloodedness reigned supreme.

He had a horrible temper too. When Serenity refused to go to the hospital or delete the post, he got angry and threatened to smash her bookstore.

Serenity looked at him coldly. “Don‘t you dare!” Her eyes were stern and cold, and her icy words carried a domineering aura that made the Hunt brothers shrink for no reason.

“Noah.” Mike turned his head to glare at the youngest cousin. When the latter did not dare to speak up anymore, he looked at Serenity and smiled. “Serenity, don‘t be mad at Noah. That‘s just the way he talks.

“Like what John said earlier, we‘re still cousins with close blood relations. No matter what, we‘re family. Will you benefit by humiliating us? We were wrong in this matter, so we apologize to you. Let bygones be bygones, okay?

“You don‘t need to pay any money. We only ask that you go visit Grandmom. She really wants to see you. These days, Grandmom and Granddad have been blaming themselves for doing so many heartless things to you before. They said that they had let your parents down, “Serenity, we‘re not saints, so we all make mistakes. The important thing is that we acknowledge our mistakes. Our grandparents are old and know they were at fault. Just give them the chance to correct their mistakes and apologize to you.” Only when they pulled out the emotion card and both sides made up would Serenity delete the post and end the matter.

Even if they wanted money, they could not ask for it now and could only give up.

In fact, they all regretted it.

If they had known that Serenity was so tough and fierce enough to air the family‘s dirty laundry in retaliation, they would have never have used this trick. They ended up being dealt a heavy blow. They were of the opinion that the Hunt sisters cared about their reputation, and that no one would come to the sisters‘ aid. However, they never imagined that so many people would help Serenity and Liberty when the situation was reversed. Instead, they became the ones who were beaten up like dogs.

With their family conditions and their income, each of them only needed to chip in a little to cover for their grandmother‘s medical expenses. Even if they did not, their grandparents had hundreds of thousands in savings, whidi was enough to pay the medical bills.

They simply did not want to spend their own money and wanted to make the Hunt sisters pay instead.

In the end… the losses outweighed the gains.

Actually, no; they did not gain anything at all except for a face full of dust.

They had no choice but to go to Serenity in person, apologize to her, and beg her to let them go.

Even if they hated her so much that their teeth ached, they could only find a way to retaliate after this matter was over.

On the surface, they had to act as if they were trying to make peace with her.

Married At First Sight Chapter 123 Gu Lingfei: Married at First Sight Novel Chapter 123 Hank‘s family found out about his affair and did not rebuke him for it. Hank said, “Liberty kept gaining weight after giving birth to Sonny. She lost her figure, and I just couldn‘t stand her anymore. Jessica is considerate , young, and beautiful. I think she‘s my true love.” Mrs. Brown said frankly, “Your mistress is only eyeing your status and income. If you‘re just an ordinary employee like before, will she like you?” “Although Liberty is ruthless and beats you up, she has taken good care of you throughout your marriage and managed the household very well. She has endured hardships, so she knows how to live within her means and manage a family. That woman you‘re dating doesn‘t seem to hold a candle to Liberty.” Although Mrs. Brown was partial to her son, her evaluation of Liberty was pertinent.

“You need a virtuous wife. Hank, you can fool around all you want and I won‘t say anything, but if you marry that girl, you must be careful lest you regret it in the future.” Most men who divorced their wives and married their lovers did not have good lives.

Mrs. Brown was very satisfied with her son‘s current situation, but she did not want her son to lose his happiness and get retribution.

Chelsea said, “What‘s so good about Liberty? Just look at how she beat up Hank! We can‘t tolerate such a woman as Hank‘s wife. Hank, I support you and Jessica. You‘ll only know if you can live a good life after marrying her. How can anyone predict that?

“Initially, Liberty was also polite and gracious. Who would‘ve thought she would chase Hank down a few blocks with a kitchen knife and beat him up like this?” Mr. and Mrs. Brown stopped talking then. “Hank, you shouldn‘t go home these few days. Don‘t give her money and don‘t apologize to her. She should be the first to apologize and admit her mistake. You can go back after she apologizes and promises not to do it again,” Chelsea advised Hank.

“Even if you don‘t get divorced now, you shouldn‘t admit defeat. Otherwise, your status in the household will plummet. You‘re a big man who should be calling the shots. You can‘t let a woman bully you.” Hank said, “I definitely won‘t go back for the next few days.” Liberty would not cook for him, so it would be better to stay at his parents‘ house to recuperate and eat good food for a few days. He would then return to work when he was fully recovered.

Hank did not intend to hide this from Jessica. He sent a message to his lover, saying that he was abused by his wife.

When Jessica received the news, she consoled him, which made Hank more inclined toward her.

Liberty breathed a sigh of relief knowing that Hank did not go home. At least she did not have to go to Serenity‘s house for refuge.

When she got home, she saw that her son was still asleep, so she quickly applied a cold compress to her face and tidied herself up. She was afraid her son would be frightened to see her like this when he woke up.

Hank yanked out a lot of her hair, which scattered all over the floor.

She cleaned them up with a broom.

Fortunately, Liberty had voluminous hair. Although a lot of hair was yanked out, it was not noticeable after she combed and tied it up.

Serenity was unaware of Hank abusing Liberty right after she left, and that such a big fight occurred. After leaving her sister‘s place, Serenity went to a pedestrian street to buy some clothes and ties for Zachary.

Grandma May told Serenity about Zachary‘s size, so Serenity chose two sets of new clothes, both in Zachary‘s favorite color, which was black, as well as two new ties. After making the purchase, she went back to the bookstore.

It was during the evening rush hour when students were out of school as Zachary arrived around six o‘clock.

However at this time, the students were attending extra classes after school, so the store was not busy.

Knowing that Serenity needed some alone time with her husband , Jasmine smiled and said, “Serenity, go home with Mr. York. Don‘t let him wait here for too long. I‘ll close up tonight
