Married At First Sight Chapter 1411
Chapter 1411
Clive defended his cousin and pushed all the blame onto Zachary,
Zachary wanted to ride on the radio waves to strangle Clive
“I’m telling you again, I’m fine! There’s no problem with me. Thank you for your concern!”
He hung up the phone.
Unexpectedly, the phone rang again.
He thought it was Clive, answered it without looking, and yelled, “I told you there’s no problem with me, Clive!”
“Mr. York… It’s me, Remy.”
Zachary’s expression softened. “Remy?”
“Yeah, it’s me. How is Ms. Hunt?”
“Her life is no longer in danger. Thank you for your concern, Remy.”
Remy said, “That’s a relief. Mr. York, you mentioned something about a problem? I know a miracle. healer. If you need to see one, I can introduce him to you the next time I see him. He can help take a look at you.”
Zachary was speechless.
He took a deep breath in, breathed out, and forced himself not to get angry at Remy.
“I’m fine, Remy. It was a cock–and–bull story made up by the paparazzi. My wife and I are very well. We haven’t had a child this long after marriage because I don’t want to share my wife with other. people, not even our child.”
Remy laughed. “I understand. It’s good that you’re well. That miracle healer is quite close to my family, so just tell me if you need him in the future. I’ll introduce you to each other.”
“Thank you for your concern.”
Remy could hear Zachary almost grinding his teeth and controlling his temper, so he sensibly. hung up the call.
In addition to Clive and Remy calling to ask about Zachary, a few other heads of companies who had a good friendship with him also called one after another to show concern over his health. Each one of them said that they knew good doctors and could introduce them to Zachary. They. told Zachary to see a doctor instead of avoiding one.
They even said stuff like “some men look tall and strong, but they actually have small problems“, further infuriating Zachary.
However, they were all but concerned for him, so he could not lose his temper with them.
In the end, after answering too many calls and not charging his phone yesterday, it automatically shut down as the battery went flat. Zachary’s ears finally quietened down.
“Duncan, lend me your phone.”
Zachary borrowed Duncan’s phone to call the driver and asked him to send a charger up for him.
Then, he returned the phone to Duncan.
Duncan looked from the side as his friend was smothered by concern over his health and stifled. his laughter.
Zachary shot him a look and snapped, “Go ahead and laugh. They say that some men look tall and. strong, but unable to have children. Duncan, you fit the description, but can you have children? They introduced so many doctors to me and gave me various methods and ideas. Do you want. me to introduce you to those doctors too?”
Duncan released his guffaw.
He said amid his laughter, “Thank you for the offer, but what do I have to fear? I have Sonny. Even if I have a problem, Sonny is enough for me. I like Sonny.”
Zachary was speechless.
Duncan just realized his feelings and had not started making his move, but he already tucked Sonny under his wing.
He thought of Sonny as his own.
The sound of high heels resounded.
The two men instinctively looked over and saw Mrs. Lewis.
Married At First Sight Chapter 1412
Chapter 1412
Duncan frowned when he saw his mother. He felt that his mother’s visit to the hospital was not a good thing.
Mrs. Lewis saw the two men standing at the door of the ward and walked straight over.
“Mrs. Lewis.”
Zachary greeted her politely.
Mrs. Lewis smiled gently and responded to his greeting.
The way she looked at Zachary made him uncomfortable. He knew what that look meant.
Even if he told Josh to take down the trending search immediately, she had most likely seen it. Those who should not see it would have probably seen it.
There might be many people who took screenshots too..
There was no question about it. Mrs. Lewis was looking at him in concern because she saw the trending search.
Those damned paparazzi just had to expose every little thing.
In the past, tabloids did not dare reveal information about his private affairs without his permission. Now that he was married and appeared softer, did they think they could appeal to Serenity for mercy and escape disaster if they exposed his private life?
“Zachary, my husband knows several good doctors. Do you want…”
“Thank you, Mrs. Lewis, but I don’t need a doctor. Everything was nonsense. Both Seren and I are very healthy. We don’t want a child so soon because we still want to spend time with each other alone. We went to the hospital that day because I thought Seren got pregnant accidentally, so we went to check. However, we ended up arguing a little because she wanted a child but I didn’t. We weren’t arguing because of the reason the reporters wrote.”
Mrs. Lewis nodded. “I see, that’s what I thought. Your wife and you both look healthy. There’s not way you two have any problems. If there was any, Mrs. Stone would be more anxious than anyone. else.”
Audrey cared deeply for her two nieces, especially Serenity who married into the York family. If Serenity could not get pregnant, Audrey would be more worried than anyone else.
Mrs. Lewis looked at her youngest son but did not say anything. She asked Zachary, “Is Liberty inside? Can I go in and see her?”
Zachary nodded.
He led Mrs. Lewis inside.
Serenity heard someone approaching and turned to look. She stood up when she saw Zachary taking Mrs. Lewis in.
“Mrs. Lewis.”
“Serenity, I came to see your sister. How is she?” Mrs. Lewis asked gently and with concern.
Serenity stepped aside for Mrs. Lewis to see her sister.
As Mrs. Lewis approached, she saw Liberty’s pale face with her arm wrapped in gauze. She knew that Liberty suffered knife wounds on her arm.
Then, she looked at Sonny, who was completely unharmed.
This was a mother’s love.
She asked about Liberty and Sonny’s condition with concern.
After a while, she changed the subject and said to Serenity, “Serenity, Zachary and you are taking care of your sister, so you don’t need Duncan to stay, right? He looks haggard, so I want to take him home to rest. He has helped enough as a friend.”
“Mom!”
Duncan already had a bad feeling about his mother coming. It turned out that she wanted to take him home personally.
Serenity quickly said, “Mrs. Lewis, we tried persuading Mr. Lewis to go back and rest. It’s enough for me and Zachary to stay and look after my sister. My aunt and Elisa will probably come over in the afternoon to take over for us. I’m very grateful to Mr. Lewis for his help. When my sister is discharged from the hospital, I’ll definitely come bearing gifts to show my gratitude.”
Mrs. Lewis said in a warm voice, “Friends should help each other. Duncan is friends with Zachary and a righteous person, so he won’t sit back and do nothing. It’s just that as a mother, it hurts at little to see him like this. Well then, I’ll take Duncan back first. You two take care as well.”
Married At First Sight Chapter 1413
Chapter 1413
Since Mrs. Lewis came all the way and said such words, Duncan could not stay any longer.
Serenity personally escorted Mrs. Lewis out of the ward.
She stood at the door of the ward and watched Mrs. Lewis and Duncan walk away.
After a long time, she sighed and turned back in with Zachary. She looked at her sleeping sister with worry.
Zachary held her shoulder and comforted her in a low voice, “Seren, everything will be fine. We don’t have to worry too much.”
As long as Duncan realized his feelings, Zachary believed that he could convince his parents to let him be together with Liberty.
“Besides, your sister isn’t interested in Duncan in that way. Duncan liking your sister is his. business, and there’s no guarantee that your sister will accept him. Let’s see how it goes for now.”
Serenity leaned on his shoulder and said softly, “Putting aside Mr. Lewis’s status, he’s a good man. If my sister wants to remarry, I’m very much in favor of them getting together, not because of Mr. Lewis’s status but his sense of responsibility.”
Duncan and Hank were two different kinds of people.
“You’re right, but it’s still too early to talk about that. Liberty hasn’t even thought of remarrying.‘
Now, Serenity just wanted her sister to get better. There was no need to rush emotional matters.
Although Mrs. Lewis took her youngest son out of the hospital, she did not let him drive. The mother and son rode in the same car back home while Duncan’s car was driven by his bodyguard.
Her expression was dark along the way.
She looked at Duncan and saw his calm expression. It was as if he would be unfazed even if the sky were to fall. Mrs. Lewis grew angry at that face.
She could not help but slap Duncan’s arm.
Duncan looked at his mother in dismay upon being hit and asked in confusion, “Why did you hit me, Mom? Were you trying to hit a large mosquito on my arm?”
“What’s wrong with you? You never bat an eye on any of the ladies in our circle, but you took al fancy to a divorcee like Liberty instead! Putting aside the fact that she has a son, even if she hasn’t married before, I still won’t accept her as my daughter–in–law.”
In the end, her greatest fear came true.
The problem lay with her son.
Liberty had no interest in Duncan.
Mrs. Lewis was furious and wanted to scold someone. She wanted to do something to Liberty, but Liberty could not be blamed for this matter. No matter how proud she was, she was a reasonable woman. Since the problem was with her son, she could only direct her anger at him.
If she went to Liberty, Liberty might even ask her to take care of her son.
Duncan said, “I think I have a good eye. Liberty is a good woman, so I took a fancy to her. What’s wrong with that? So what if she’s a divorced single mother? At first, I was just in it for Sonny. That child is cute and clever, just like me…”
His mother smacked him again before he could finish his sentence.
Mrs. Lewis yelled, “Where’s your shame? Do you even feel shameful? Sonny’s last name is Brown. How could Sonny Brown be just like you? Bah, you’re shameless! If he really was your flesh and blood, for the sake of my grandson, I’d accept Liberty no matter how much I dislike her, but is Sonny yours?”
Duncan grumbled, “I just said that Sonny is smart like me. I didn’t say that he was mine. I wish he was, but unfortunately, he isn’t. However, it’s fine. It’s the same if I become his stepdad. A stepdad is also a dad. If I treat him well, he’ll accept me as his father.”
Married At First Sight Chapter 1414
Chapter 1414
Mrs. Lewis felt like she was going to explode from anger.
They were not together yet, but Duncan already wanted to be Sonny’s father.
Was Hank dead?
“Duncan, I’m telling you, I don’t accept Liberty. I won’t allow you to be with her! She’s divorced and has a child. You’re from completely different worlds. The right person for you is a strong and capable woman from an influential family, someone like Lily.
“Putting aside the Lewis family, even if we just look at your own achievements, don’t you think that Liberty is still unworthy of you?
“You’re the CEO of Lewis & Co., and she’s just the owner of a small breakfast diner. Even the store she rents belongs to you. You two are worlds apart. That’s not me looking down on her. It’s the truth. Duncan, both families have to be well–matched in social status in a marriage. You and Liberty are not suitable for each other.
“You should give up on her and go out with Lily. Didn’t you have a great time chatting with her during the Marshall family’s banquet? When you danced together, you were like a match made in heaven.”
Duncan left his family so that they could not control him. Thus, when it came to marriage, he naturally only considered his own feelings and did not want to be bound by his family and parents.
He said firmly, “Mom, it’s my marriage and my decision. I’m the one marrying someone, not you. If I think Liberty is suitable for me, then she is. I don’t think she’s unworthy of me. If anything, I’m the unworthy one. I’m old and ugly. Besides having more money than she does, in what way am I better than her?
“Even if she’s divorced, she’s several years younger than me. She’s like a blooming flower at the peak of its beauty now. As for me, my face is fierce and full of scars. I can scare a child to tears even without makeup, and I’m almost forty. I’m not worthy of her.”
Mrs. Lewis reached out to pinch his face. “Your face is fierce? Which part is fierce? Even if you have scars, you’re still handsome! Do you think I’ll give you two my blessings if you put yourself down? In your dreams!”
“Why would I need your approval for my business? If you like Liberty and can accept her, we’ll bring Sonny home often to see you and keep you company after we get married. If you don’t like her, the three of us can live happily in one of the many houses I have. We won’t affect you.”
Mrs. Lewis was speechless.
Duncan was used to being independent.
He felt that his liking for Liberty was his business. Whether or not he could marry Liberty in the future was also his business. There was no need for his parents to interfere.
If his parents could accept her, he would bring her home often to accompany them.
If they could not accept her, he would go back himself. He would not take his wife and child back
to be disdained by his parents.
In short, his marriage, his decision!
“Besides, Liberty still doesn’t like me. Look at your son, Mom. Even Liberty doesn’t like me. How can you disdain her? If there’s anyone you should disdain, it’s me. If Liberty is willing to accept me, marry me, and put an end to my life as a bachelor, you should be grateful to her instead.
“Your undesirable youngest son will finally be sold off, so you should give Liberty lots and lots of money as payment to prevent her from returning the goods.”
Mrs. Lewis was speechless.
She glared at her son and opened her mouth several times to say something, but no words came out.
She was furious.
This son could really piss her off to the point of vomiting blood.
“Mom, I just don’t feel a spark with Lily. You can’t force emotions. I don’t love Lily, so I won’t force myself to be with her. You should talk to Lily and stop wasting her time.”
Mrs. Lewis stared at him for a long time before saying, “Unless hell freezes over and pigs start to fly, I’ll never agree to you and Liberty being together!”
Married At First Sight Chapter 1415
Chapter 1415
Duncan did not care how adamant his mother was and said with a smile, “Mom, you should worry about whether your son can win over Liberty first.”
Liberty suffered in her first marriage and no longer longed for love. She would not be easy to pursue.
Mrs. Lewis said angrily, “Are you really going to pursue her?”
“I didn’t know my feelings before, but when I found out that Liberty got injured, I was so afraid and heartbroken. Although I’m rough and not as attentive as Josh, I’m not stupid. I know that this is care–this is love!
“I care about Liberty and like her! Since I like her, I have to pursue her. I can’t just secretly harbor feelings for her while waiting for her to take the initiative to marry me. That’s wishful thinking.”
Mrs. Lewis slapped him and warned, “Duncan Lewis, I’m officially warning you now. You’re not allowed to pursue Liberty. Otherwise, don’t blame me for taking action.”
“Love that has braved through storms will last longer. Mom, you can come at me if you’re dissatisfied, but don’t go after Liberty. If you harm her, our relationship with the York and Stone families will be over. Think about it.
“How detrimental will it be if our family completely falls out with the two most influential families in Wiltspoon? Besides, you stopping me won’t make me give up on her. I won’t go along with your arrangements, so don’t think about controlling me.
Mrs. Lewis was speechless.
She was so angry that she could do nothing but just glare at him.
Her son was hyper–independent.
When he was young and impetuous, that independence was disobedience in the eyes of his parents. He was too opinionated and unwilling to listen to the words of others. He did whatever he pleased.
It was like how he, the fourth young master of the Lewis family, went and became a gangster.
If his grandmother’s death had not dragged him back, he might have become a mob boss in the underworld by now.
Most children lived under the protection of their families and needed a hand from their families to start a business.
However, Duncan did not want help from his family. He relied on his friendship with Zachary to borrow a start–up capital, then established Lewis & Co. step by step. He grew his company stronger and more powerful with his capability and successfully squeezed into the ranks of the top companies in Wiltspoon, with a net worth of tens of billions.
Lewis & Co. did not have any dealings with the Lewis family business. He worked closely with York Corporation and many large companies in other regions and cities. In short, he did not listen to his parents and did not like them paving the way for him.
When Duncan saw his mother at a loss for words, he leaned back comfortably, closed his eyes, and said, “Wake me up when we reach home, Mom. I’m taking a nap.”
He did not sleep a wink all night, so it was natural for him to be tired.
However, he was unable to sleep last night. He was worried about Liberty..
He even thought about what he would do if Liberty never woke up.
When did he begin to like her?
He had known Liberty for half a year, but he really had no clue as to when he became interested in that once plump woman. Maybe his heart was moved as he watched her transform her physique to the beautiful woman she was today.
Regardless of when he started liking her, since he had feelings for her now, he would pursue her.
Would Liberty drive him out of her breakfast diner with her spatula after he confessed to her? Would she forbid him from coming in for breakfast again in the future?
Duncan was a little worried. He had to think of a way to let Liberty jump into his arms step by step until she was unable to struggle against him and had no choice but to give in.
“You deserve to be tired. She has her sister, brother–in–law, and so many people to take care of her. She didn’t need you to stay there all night. You reap what you sow.”
Mrs. Lewis snapped at her son.
Duncan said nonchalantly, “I reap what I sow, but did it willingly. I was the first one to see her wake up. Seeing her awake and watching her being pushed out of the ICU made me happier than cinching a deal worth hundreds of millions.”
Mrs. Lewis was speechless.
Duncan soon fell asleep in the car.
Mrs. Lewis looked at her sleeping son and felt angry, distressed, and helpless.
Married At First Sight Chapter 1416
Chapter 1416
After returning to the Lewis residence, Mrs. Lewis did not want to wake her son up. However, she could not carry her son as she did when he was a child, so she had no choice but to wake him up.
“Duncan, we’re home. Wake up.”
Duncan only woke up after a few nudges from his mother.
He was still a bit dazed when he opened his eyes. He looked at his mother for a while before coming to his senses and getting out of the car.
Lily just came back from outside. The car she drove was lent to her by Mrs. Lewis.
“Mrs. Lewis, Duncan,” Lily greeted as she got out of the car.
The two of them got along well at the Marshall family’s banquet. She thought that was the beginning of her good relationship with Duncan, so she was friendlier with him.
“Lily, where did you go?”
Mrs. Lewis was full of smiles when facing Lily. She really liked Lily and wanted Lily to be her youngest daughter–in–law.
Her best friend thought the same, and the two family’s elders were all looking forward to it.
Mrs. Lewis just did not understand why her son did not like Lily despite the latter being better than Liberty in every way.
What was wrong with her youngest son? He did not want any of the desirable young ladies in their circle, and chose a divorced woman instead!
If she let Liberty marry into the Lewis family, they would become a laughingstock.
It would be a slap to the face to the many young ladies from affluent families.
“I went shopping and bought many things back.”
Lily got along well with everyone in the Lewis family.
Duncan’s little nephews liked Lily and asked his mother privately if Lily would be his wife in the future.
Lily took the clothes, cosmetic products, and other things she bought out of the car as she spoke. She called out, “Duncan, help me out with the bags. I bought several sets of clothes for you. Have a look and see if you like them later. The sizes should be correct since I asked Mrs. Lewis for them.”
Duncan had walked several feet away when Lily called out to lum. Mrs. Lewis went up to pull him back and pushed him to help Lily with the bags.
Duncan glanced at the stuff that Lily bought. There were many bags of various sizes.
“I’ll send someone to help you.”
Duncan did not help Lily but turned around and left again. After he went into the house, servants soon came out to help Lily with the bags.
Mrs. Lewis was furious by his actions.
Although Lily was a little embarrassed, she did not say anything and soon returned to normal.
“Lily, don’t worry about what that boy says or does. He deserves to be beaten up,” Mrs. Lewis. comforted.
“I’m fine, Mrs. Lewis. Duncan left to call someone to help me carry the bags. I’m happy enough with that,” Lily said tacitly.
“That brat is going to be the death of me. Lily, you have to worry harder and defeat that divorced woman!”
Married At First Sight Chapter 1417
Chapter 1417
Lily looked at Mrs Lewis
Mrs. Lewis asked the servants to carry all the things that Lily bought into the house while she took Lily for a walk around the yard
She sighed as she walked.
“Tell me what’s on your mind, Mrs. Lewis. Maybe I can help. Don’t sigh. There are many people. around you to support you.”
Mrs. Lewis took Lily’s hand and looked at her, saying, “Lity, you’re a capable and understanding girl. You can take care of both your work and family at home, and you also dominate the business world in my eyes, you’re the ideal daughter–in–law.
“I really don’t know what’s wrong with Duncan’s eyes. How can he have feelings for Liberty? Our greatest worry came true Liberty got injured, and he stayed in the hospital all night to watch over her. He only came back now to rest because I dragged him out..
“On the way back, he also admitted that he cared about Liberty and liked her too. Lily, you have to fight harder. You’re superior to Liberty in every way, so you have to defeat her. In short, I only want you. As long as I’m alive, I will never allow Liberty to marry into the Lewis family!”
Lily was both surprised and not surprised.
She and Mrs. Lewis had already guessed it.
Mrs. Lewis even went to test Liberty but found out that Liberty did not like Duncan.
“Has Duncan confessed to Liberty?” Lily asked calmly.
“No, he only realized his feelings when he saw Liberty hurt.”
Lily smiled and said, “Mrs. Lewis, this is between the three of us, so let us take care of it. I’ll work hard I can’t guarantee that I can win Duncan over, but I can promise that I’ll try my best to pursue my happiness.
“Don’t do anything behind the scenes to hurt Liberty if I win, I want to win fair and square *
Lily had known Mrs. Lewis for a long time and understood the latter. Mrs. Lewis was a bit overbearing and looked down on Liberty. Since she could not do anything to her son, she might really act against Liberty
Lily was not the kind of person who was unable to accept defeat.
When she first joined her company, she started from the bottom and did many things that made her feel like a failure
Facing failure was not scary at all. After all, experiences gained were learned from failures She could improve and succeed the next time
Thus, Lily would be able to accept it if she failed to pursue Duncan and lost to Liberty. If she won, she wanted it to be fair and square, if she lost, she wanted it to be on her merit.
Mrs. Lewis said, “Lily, you’re such a great person. Why doesn’t Duncan like you?”
“Apples and oranges–everyone has different tastes. I might not be Duncan’s type, or I came too late and let Duncan take a liking to Liberty first.”
Lily added, “Don’t frown, Mrs. Lewis. Duncan is almost forty. He knows what he wants.
“I’ll work hard, but don’t hold too much hope for me. In any case, I’ll try my best.”
Mrs. Lewis was even more reluctant now. Her son must be blind not to like such a sensible girl. If she had another son, she would force that son to marry Lily.
“Duncan is stubborn. He’s hard–nosed and doesn’t listen to others.”
Mrs. Lewis felt that her youngest son was completely out of her control.
When Duncan started his business more than ten years ago, he would rather borrow money from Zachary and the bank than ask his family. He just did not want to rely on his family and let them have a hold over him.
In the past, they saw their son’s willingness to start a business and thought that he was finally being sensible, so they let him work it out on his own. Now that he was used to being independent, Mrs. Lewis realized that as a mother, she could not do anything about her headstrong son.
Lily did not respond. That was a point she appreciated about Duncan.
They were both strong. If they could come together, it would be a powerful alliance.
Of course, if they fall out, it would be disastrous for both parties. Maybe it was because they were both headstrong individuals that Duncan preferred someone gentler like Liberty.
The Brown family came again.
Married At First Sight Chapter 1418
Chapter 1418
The York family bodyguards blocked them from entering the ward.
“We heard that Liberty woke up and came to see her,” Olivia said to the bodyguard with a smile.
Serenity did not tell Hank that Liberty woke up.
However, the kidnapping was too high–profile, and there were too many people involved. News. about the incident instantly went viral, so everyone in Wiltspoon knew about it..
Naturally, everyone also paid attention to Liberty’s injury.
The media found out that her life was no longer in danger and she was released from the ICU.
Countless people were moved by her maternal love and prayed for her, hoping that she would. recover. The media reported her overcoming the critical period, which was how the Brown family. found out.
“As our missus said, Ms. Hunt still needs to recuperate. There shouldn’t be noise disturbing her. It’s enough that you know her life is no longer in danger. There’s no need to go in and disturb her.”
The one who spoke was Jim.
Chelsea said loudly, “We’re just here to see Liberty. We’ll take a look at her and then leave. Get out of the way. We’re going in!”
“Chelsea.”
Mr. Brown glared at her daughter.
Chelsea lowered her voice and muttered, “We’re just worried about Liberty. We don’t have any bad intentions. Can’t we just look at her?”
At that moment, the door of the ward opened.
Serenity stood across them.
“Serenity.”
Upon seeing Serenity, Chelsea quickly said, “Serenity, can we see your sister? Don’t worry, we just want to look at her. We won’t disturb her.”
Serenity’s eyes skimmed over the Brown family’s faces one by one, and she finally said to Chelsea, “Keep your voices down.”
Liberty heard her former in–laws in the ward long ago and told her sister to let them in after thinking about it. She knew her former in–laws very well. If she did not let them come in now, they would come over and annoy her every day.
“Yes, yes, we’ll be very quiet,” Chelsea hurriedly promised.
Serenity turned around and walked back in. The York family bodyguards did not stop the Brown family from entering the ward anymore.
Liberty.
Except for Hank, the rest of the Brown family gathered around Liberty’s hospital bed.
“Thank goodness you’ve woken up, Liberty.”
Chelsea and Olivia kept thanking the heavens.
“Thank you for coming to see me,” Liberty spoke softly.
“Don’t mention it, it’s the least we could do.”
Chelsea took out a gift card and gave it to Liberty, saying, “This is from us. You can use the money here to buy something nutritious. Your face is really pale. You have to take care of your body.”
Liberty’s hands could not move yet, so she could not return the gift card to Chelsea. She gestured to her sister to help her refuse.
Serenity took the gift card and shoved it back to Chelsea. “My sister doesn’t need your money.”
Married At First Sight Chapter 1419
Chapter 1419
“Serenity, this is a little gift from me. Keep it for your sister. When people visit someone at the hospital, it’s customary to bring a gift.” Chelsea brought up the social custom.
She insisted that Liberty accept the gift card.
Olivia also gave Liberty a gift card.
Serenity refused, and in the end, the mother and daughter shoved the gift cards to Sonny and let him hold them. Then, they quickly ran away.
Mr. Brown ran along with them, not letting Serenity return the gift cards.
Only Hank stood there, watching Liberty awkwardly.
Serenity wanted to let Hank take the gift cards away, but Sonny refused to let go. He clung tightly to the cards and said, “Grandmom and Aunt Chelsea gave these to me!”
Serenity said gently, “Sonny, you have to return these gift cards to them. We don’t want their money.”
“Grandmom and Aunt Chelsea gave them to me!”
Sonny refused resolutely. His grandmother and aunt gave him gift cards in the past, but his mother would always exchange them for cash and put it into his piggy bank.
Thus, he subconsciously wanted to protect the gift cards that his grandmother and aunt gave him. It was his money!
Serenity was speechless.
It was her first time finding out that her nephew was a miser.
“Take care of yourself, Liberty. I’ll come see you again when I’m free.”
In the end, Hank did not say what he wanted to say and left after uttering some common. pleasantries.
Serenity could not retrieve the two gift cards from her nephew to return to the Brown family. She looked at her sister for help.
Liberty’s pale face had a small smile as she said, “Forget it, just accept the gift cards. They’ve given gift cards to Sonny before, so he’s used to receiving these from them. It’s too hard to take them from Sonny’s hands.”
Serenity picked up her nephew and gave him a kiss, joking, “Sonny, are you saving up to get a wife in the future?”
“I’m saving up for Mom. I’m going to save lots and lots of money so that Mom has a big house to live in later.”
Liberty’s smile deepened.
Serenity laughed and praised him. “Our Sonny is such a good boy. You even know how to save money to buy a big house for your mom to live in.”
Sonny struggled out of Serenity’s arms, wanting to sit on the bed.
Serenity sat him down and was careful not to let him touch Liberty’s wounds.
Sonny presented the two gift cards to his mother.
“Here, Mom.“
“Let your aunt hold onto them for now. I’ll take them back when I get better, okay?”
Sonny thought about it and nodded. He gave the gift cards to Serenity for temporary safekeeping. “Remember to give them back to me, Aunt Ser.”
Serenity laughed. “Are you afraid that I’ll take your money?”
Sonny looked a little embarrassed and suddenly lay down. However, he was aware enough to avoid touching his mother’s injuries. He lay on his side, facing his mother so that he could be with her.
Knock, knock.
There was a knock at the door.
Jim came in and said respectfully, “Mr. Callum has come with Ms. Newman.”
“Let them in.”
Jim responded with affirmation and went back out.
Soon, Callum came in with Camryn, carrying a fruit basket and a bouquet of flowers.
Camryn walked slowly with the cane in her hand, and Callum walked patiently with her.
“Camryn.”
Serenity stepped forward to assist Camryn.
Married At First Sight Chapter 1420
Chapter 1420
“Thank you,” Camryn said to Serenity.
“Serenity,” Callum greeted.
Serenity hummed and helped Camryn sit down in a chair.
Callum placed the fruit basket and bouquet on the bedside table and said warmly, “Liberty, these are from Ms. Newman. We wish you a speedy recovery.”
Liberty thanked them.
She did not know Camryn well, but she knew that her sister and Camryn got along with each other. Her sister told her that Camryn was the wife chosen for Callum by his grandmother. Judging by Callum’s attitude toward Camryn, he had accepted his grandmother’s arrangement.
“Liberty.”
Camryn faced Liberty.
“I’m sorry.”
She apologized.
“Why are you apologizing to me, Ms. Newman?” Liberty’s voice was a little weak. After the anesthesia wore off, her wounds and the surgery incisions hurt so much that her face was pale. She could not even raise her voice to speak louder.
Camryn said guiltily, “This all started because of me. In order to save me, Serenity lent me a hand, which was why my mother had a grudge against her. That’s why my mother… She has been. arrested and will be punished by the law, but as her family member, it’s my duty to come and. apologize to you.”
She stood up and said solemnly, “I’m truly sorry, Liberty!”
“Ms. Newman, I accept your apology. Don’t blame yourself. It’s not your fault, nor is it Seren’s fault. It’s those people who were too deranged.”
Liberty actually did not know who was behind the incident, but she figured it out after Camryn came to apologize.
Camryn still felt guilty.
Her mother had a grudge against Serenity because the latter helped her.
Serenity comforted Camryn before asking, “How is your family now?”
Both Mrs. Newman and Carrie were arrested.
After Carrie was sued by Serenity, her sentence was not as heavy as Mrs. Newman’s. Mrs. Newman wanted to save her daughter, but she was impatient and ruthless. Not only did she fail to save her daughter, but also got arrested herself.
She thought she could do whatever she wanted with the men her godfather left behind.
The consequence of being too arrogant was jail time.
It was the nature of a gangster.
“My uncle rushed back last night, but there was nothing he could do. He can only hire the best. lawyer for my mom, but in my opinion, nothing will change. There are some things that he can’t get away with too. I believe he’ll soon join his wife and daughter in jail.”
Camryn discussed it with Callum and decided to hand over the recorder to the police. She would report her mother and stepfather for plotting to kill her father. This was the best time to do so since countless people were watching after the crime her mother committed.
If she made a report against them now, the police would definitely investigate it.
She could not see and could not collect evidence for the time being, but the police could investigate and help her collect evidence.
Callum supported her. He said he would support her no matter what she did.
Camryn felt very moved.
Their friendship was not deep, but Callum was willing to help her and support her unconditionally, saying that his family raised him well. Camryn believed him. It was the York family who raised Callum to be a good man with a sense of justice.
“Evil will never prevail over righteousness. As long as they’ve done something illegal, it’ll be found out.”
Serenity squeezed Camryn’s hand. “I’m rooting for you!”
They both understood the underlying meaning in each other’s words.
Camryn said gratefully, “Thank you, Serenity. Really, thank you so much. It was my fault that you got involved. I feel guilty every time I think about it. I’m so sorry.”
“If you need any help in the future, talk to Callum. He’ll help you.”
