Married At First Sight Chapter 3601
Married At First Sight Chapter 3601 – When Audrey and the others arrived, Clarissa’s bodyguard immediately reached out to stop them.
Audrey’s face darkened as she shouted coldly, “What? Don’t you know who I am? I’m here to see my mother, and you dare block my way? Move aside!”
The bodyguard felt uneasy after being scolded by Audrey.
Audrey was the eldest daughter of the previous head of the family. If nothing had happened to the previous head, this noble and beautiful middle-aged woman before the bodyguard would have been the one sitting as the head of the family.
Audrey was nearly sixty years old but had maintained herself well, looking like she was in her forties.
She used to be in charge of the Stone Group and was a prominent figure in the business world, exuding great authority.
The bodyguard found Audrey more intimidating than Clarissa.
However, remembering Clarissa’s orders, the bodyguard forced himself to remain calm and said, “Ma’am, I’m sorry, but our boss is talking to her sister. She instructed us to make sure no one disturbs them without her consent.”
“I’m not here to argue. Are you going to step aside, or do I have to force my way through?” Audrey said coldly.
She didn’t want to waste time arguing.
The two bodyguards stood their ground, watching Audrey and her group warily.
Mr. Jimenez’s expression also turned cold.
Clarissa was being deliberately difficult!
Mr. Jimenez said in a low voice, “Lilian.”
Lilian responded, handing the chrysanthemums she was holding to Audrey to assist her.
Then she said, “Auntie, please take Grandpa Jimenez a few steps back. I may have to punch and kick them first.”
The two bodyguards, seeing Lilian as just a young woman, underestimated her. Even if she knew some martial arts, they didn’t think she was particularly strong. After all, there were two of them, and several more colleagues nearby.
They didn’t believe one woman could knock them all down.
Lilian asked, “Are you two going to come at me together, or one by one? I suggest together, so we don’t waste time.”
The two bodyguards exchanged angry glances at Lilian’s arrogance. Ignoring any martial arts etiquette, they attacked Lilian together, aiming to punch or hit her face.
They were skilled fighters, capable of knocking out teeth with a single punch.
But they didn’t hear Lilian scream.
Instead, loud screams echoed in the cemetery, startling everyone within earshot.
Then, there were two muffled groans.
Audrey looked carefully and saw that the two bodyguards were already lying on the ground, convulsing.
Audrey was speechless. She hadn’t even seen how Lilian had struck them.
When she blinked, the two bodyguards were already down. They weren’t screaming anymore but twitching as if they were having seizures.
Mr. Jimenez was unfazed.
When Lilian attacked, few could withstand her.
Even Tim, Lilian’s husband, couldn’t match her. Tim’s skills were undoubtedly superior to the two bodyguards.
But Lilian had an edge—she was skilled in using poison.
Now, the two bodyguards were likely hit by Lilian’s poisoned needles.
The needles were small, with a trace of poison. They wouldn’t kill, but they would cause intense discomfort.
Lilian had studied medicine from a young age and was intimately familiar with human acupuncture points. When she released her poison needles, the two bodyguards had no time to react, mainly because they never expected Lilian to carry such needles.
Married At First Sight Chapter 3602
Married At First Sight Chapter 3602 – Lilian rushed forward.
The other bodyguards, who had just watched their companions get taken down by Lilian, were baffled. They hadn’t seen how it happened, but their companions were now on the ground.
Was this woman a top-tier fighter?
Seeing Lilian rushing toward them, they disregarded everything and attacked together.
But before they got close to her, they felt sharp pain and numbness in several parts of their bodies. Soon, they too fell to the ground, twitching just like their colleagues.
This also included Clarissa and her two personal bodyguards.
Lilian showed no mercy to Clarissa. As the bodyguards turned to attack, she scattered more poisoned needles. The result was the same—even Clarissa fell to the ground, convulsing.
Lilian made sure to give Clarissa a few extra needles as well.
All the poisoned needles Lilian carried with her were used up at once. She planned to retrieve them later and reapply the poison. Although the needles wouldn’t kill, they would leave the victims feeling as if they were having epileptic fits.
Audrey and Darrell wanted to help Mr. Jimenez walk, but he insisted, “I’ll walk on my own. Just help Lilian with the bouquet.”
“Auntie, does Dr. Carden know how to press acupuncture points from a distance? She’s incredible!” Audrey exclaimed. “I didn’t even see how she did it, but Clarissa and her bodyguards were all taken down.”
“She doesn’t press acupuncture points from a distance; she’s skilled in using poison. A strong poison can kill, so she uses needles with a weaker poison,” Mr. Jimenez explained.
“She hasn’t used her poison needles in years. These people are lucky to experience them today.”
Uncle Zhong couldn’t help but chuckle. After all, many of the older generation had been on the receiving end of Lilian’s poison needles.
Audrey added, “Dr. Carden is remarkable. She’s also very good at hand-to-hand combat, but if her opponents didn’t know her or realize she carried poison needles, it would be tough for her to take them down all at once.”
With just punches and kicks, Lilian might win, but it would be exhausting.
Darrell said, “We’ve heard about Dr. Carden’s abilities for a long time, but seeing them in action is something else.”
The successors trained by the previous generation are truly masters among masters—so powerful, with a hint of mystery.
Clarissa, unable to stand or speak, could only glare in fury as she lay on the ground. Her expression was a mix of shock and humiliation.
Despite not being the successor, Clarissa had never endured such disgrace in her seventy years of life.
For Audrey to bring people who dared to treat her like this—despite her being an elder and the current head of the Farrell family—was akin to rubbing her face in the dirt.
Audrey simply glanced at Clarissa without a hint of sympathy.
Mr. Jimenez paid her no mind either. His focus was solely on the tomb of the family head, not on Clarissa lying helplessly on the ground.
Lilian knew that she would eventually have to remove the needles and administer an antidote.
But even after detoxification, these people would feel unwell for a couple of days.
Clarissa, being older, might need three to five days to recover fully.
They deserved it!
After all, they didn’t recognize their place and even dared to stop Audrey!
Married At First Sight Chapter 3603
Married At First Sight Chapter 3603 – Audrey softly asked Lilian, “They won’t die, will they?”
Although Clarissa was hateful, letting her die so easily would be too merciful.
Clarissa had to be ruined, no matter what, and she deserved to be scolded even after death.
“They will recover automatically in about ten minutes, but they still need to take the antidote I developed. Otherwise, the toxin will continue to affect their bodies.”
Audrey replied, “I won’t let them die. I don’t want to be charged as a murderer.”
Lilian looked at Clarissa and the others and said, “It’s not worth it.”
She was satisfied with her life and had no desire to sacrifice her future for these people.
Audrey nodded. “That’s good. It’s not worth it.”
She placed a bouquet in front of her mother’s grave, then tossed aside the bouquet and fruits Clarissa had brought.
“Mom, the person who killed you was your dearest sister. She was ungrateful. You raised her, taught her, and gave her so much, but she turned against you, killing you and Dad. And she also killed my aunt. This kind of person, who could kill her own siblings, has a face thicker than a city wall. She still has the nerve to visit you. Mom, I threw away everything she brought for you. I believe that if you knew, you wouldn’t want to see her or anything she brought.
Mom, Uncle Jimenez is back. He always remembered to avenge you, but he was chased by assassins sent by Clarissa and got injured. Although he was rescued, he was left with lasting effects and has been on medication for decades. He relied on his strong willpower to hold on until now, just to avenge you. Mom, let Uncle Jimenez have a good talk with you. He has a lot to say.”
Audrey gently stroked the portrait on her mother’s tombstone.
After a moment, she stood up.
She said to Uncle Jimenez in a gentle voice, “Uncle Jimenez, let’s step aside for a while. You haven’t been back for such a long time. You must have a lot to say to Mom. You should chat with her first.”
As she spoke, she walked away with Darrell and Lilian, first dragging Clarissa far enough away so she couldn’t hear Uncle Jimenez speaking. Then she dragged the bodyguards away.
Lilian said they would be back to normal in ten minutes.
Ten minutes were almost up.
While time was still on her side, she intended to humiliate Clarissa if she could.
Audrey wasn’t polite to Clarissa at all.
After all, she had come here to confront Clarissa face to face and end this matter once and for all. She didn’t want it to drag on and affect future generations.
Clarissa was seething with rage. In her current state, she couldn’t even notify Mr. Dunn to come and save her.
What was the name of that young woman?
Clarissa heard her niece call her Dr. Carden, and her niece was polite to her.
Dr. Carden…
Clarissa suddenly realized who she was.
The disciple of the legendary genius doctor, also known as the little genius doctor, and the fourth young lady of the Johnson family in Annenburg. How remarkable!
Clarissa knew Dr. Carden’s medical skills were extraordinary, but she never imagined she could use poison needles.
They were caught off guard and fell right into Lilian’s trap.
Dr. Carden had no sense of martial ethics.
Lilian’s approach was clear: she wanted to kill with surprise, not caring how she attacked, as long as she could knock them down.
Ten minutes passed quickly.
Clarissa and her bodyguards returned to normal.
They also heard what Lilian had said earlier.
Married At First Sight Chapter 3604
Married At First Sight Chapter 3604 – Even though they had returned to normal and stopped twitching, they still needed to take the antidote developed by Lilian to be fully cured. But even then, they wouldn’t be completely fine—they would still feel uncomfortable for a day or two afterward.
Is this person really a doctor?
More like a poison doctor.
Lilian noticed that they had stopped twitching, and before they could get up, she moved forward to retrieve her needles.
No one dared to say a word.
Those tiny needles, with just a bit of poison, had left them writhing as if they were having seizures.
“Antidote!”
After Lilian pulled the needle from Clarissa, Clarissa grabbed one of her wrists.
Glaring at her and gritting her teeth, Clarissa demanded, “Dr. Carden, give me the antidote!”
The pain and embarrassment she had just endured were unbearable. Clarissa didn’t want to go through it again. She just wanted the antidote quickly to eliminate the poison from her body.
Lilian shook her hand free and said, “Get in line, from youngest to oldest. Since you’re the oldest, you go to the end of the line. No one can cut in line. Don’t even think about lying about your age. If I find out you lied, I won’t give you any medicine—not today, not tomorrow, not ever.”
She added, “I don’t have much antidote today. I can only give each of you a quarter dose, so you’ll have to continue taking it for the next three days.”
Clarissa’s face darkened with anger. She felt that Lilian was intentionally humiliating her.
Audrey glanced at Clarissa’s dark expression and whispered to her husband, “Honey, since Dr. Carden arrived, we’ve always treated her with respect, haven’t we? Think carefully—have we ever offended her or neglected her in any way?”
Dr. Carden appeared easygoing and was also beautiful, but when she caused trouble, even a strong man might not be able to handle it.
After a moment of thought, Darrell whispered back, “No, absolutely not. We’ve always treated Dr. Carden with the utmost courtesy.”
They knew Lilian was the apprentice of the miracle doctor, who had passed on his exceptional medical skills to her.
So, whenever Lilian visited Wiltspoon, those lucky enough to meet her treated her with the highest respect, as a distinguished guest.
How could they possibly offend her?
Everyone gets sick eventually.
Who wouldn’t want to be friends with someone like Dr. Carden, who possessed such superb medical skills?
It’s just common sense—everyone wanted to stay on good terms with Dr. Carden, in case they or their family needed treatment in the future.
Camryn had been blind for ten years, but Dr. Carden restored her sight with just one operation.
Lilian had already explained that Camryn’s eyesight was partially restored thanks to her predecessors’ work; the credit wasn’t entirely hers.
However, if Lilian hadn’t been called in to treat her, Camryn wouldn’t have regained her sight so quickly.
She also discovered other reasons for Camryn’s condition.
“Dr. Carden,” Clarissa said, suppressing her anger, “I apologize for my earlier actions. I shouldn’t have allowed them to block your way, and I shouldn’t have let my bodyguards disrespect you. Dr. Carden, you are very generous and tolerant. Please don’t hold a grudge against an old woman like me. Dr. Carden, could you please give me the antidote?”
Lilian replied, “I told you to line up to get the medicine. Can’t you hear me? Or don’t you understand what I’m saying?”
Clarissa was speechless.
Her bodyguards had already lined up according to their ages.
Clarissa looked at Audrey.
Audrey looked up at the sky.
Darrell also looked up at the sky.
Clarissa was so angry that her teeth were grinding. But in order to survive, she still lined up behind her bodyguards.
As she waited, a fire started to burn within her. Even if Lilian was as powerful as she seemed, when surrounded by flames, could she really lead everyone out of the inferno?
Married At First Sight Chapter 3605
Married At First Sight Chapter 3605 – Lilian handed out the medicine in the order of the queue.
After receiving the medicine, the bodyguards of the Farrell family hesitated about whether to take it or not.
Lilian said, “You’re all poisoned, so why are you afraid of my medicine? This is an antidote. After taking it, it can slightly relieve the numbness in your body. Don’t you feel numb and uncomfortable?”
The bodyguards exchanged glances. Though they had stopped twitching, they still felt numb and uncomfortable. However, they were not as skilled as Lilian, and after learning her identity, they dared not act against her.
It turned out that this young woman was a disciple of the miracle doctor and the fourth young lady of the Johnson family.
They had never heard of the miracle doctor, but the fourth young lady of the Johnson family was well-known—a very powerful woman.
When the Lafayette family in Meadspring was in trouble, Dr. Carden had gone to assist them.
The Johnson family had connections with the York family, but they hadn’t expected the relationship to be so close that the fourth young lady of the Johnson family would be involved.
Soon, the bodyguards decided to take the medicine.
Once someone took the lead, the others followed.
When it was Clarissa’s turn to receive the medicine, Lilian spread her hands and said, “Mrs. Farrell, I’m sorry, but there’s no medicine left for you. I had too little medicine, and there are too many of you, so there wasn’t enough to go around. Who told you to be so old? It’s okay, old woman, you’ve lived long enough anyway. Just bear with it, and it’ll pass.”
Clarissa was speechless.
This was deliberate; Lilian was definitely being deliberate.
When Lilian said there was no medicine left, Clarissa looked at her two personal bodyguards.
They immediately handed the small amount of medicine Lilian had given them to Clarissa.
Clarissa didn’t bother with pleasantries; she grabbed the medicine and swallowed it. The poison developed by Lilian had taken effect quickly, and the antidote she provided was just as effective.
Soon after, Clarissa felt the numbness subside, though it hadn’t completely disappeared. It was tolerable.
The two bodyguards who didn’t take the medicine were not as fortunate.
The numbness wasn’t painful, but it felt like ants were crawling inside their bodies, causing a slight itch. If they scratched, they couldn’t pinpoint the exact spot, and even if they did, the itch remained.
It was quite uncomfortable.
Clarissa looked at Mr. Jimenez standing before her sister’s grave. Due to his advanced age, he no longer appeared as handsome as she remembered.
Mr. Jimenez had his back to Clarissa. She hadn’t seen his face yet and didn’t know what he looked like after decades of not seeing him.
With Lilian, who was skilled in using poison, watching closely, Clarissa was tactful and just stood there without moving forward.
But her eyes remained glued to Mr. Jimenez, watching as he slowly squatted down and gently touched the tombstone, though he did not touch her sister’s portrait.
It wasn’t that Mr. Jimenez didn’t want to, but he didn’t dare.
In his heart, Clarissa’s sister was his world. He respected her deeply. No matter what his feelings for the head of the family were, he always respected her and didn’t dare to offend her in the slightest.
Even touching the portrait on the tombstone felt like an offense to the head of the family.
He was whispering something, but Clarissa couldn’t hear it clearly.
Clarissa only knew that her heart was filled with bitterness. In his eyes, she would always be Mr. Jimenez’s master’s younger sister.
Earlier, Mr. Jimenez had walked past her while she was twitching on the ground without even glancing at her.
How was she inferior to her sister?
Mr. Jimenez and his master communed for a long time before he finally stood up.
Married At First Sight Chapter 3606
Married At First Sight Chapter 3606 – As soon as they got off the plane, they headed straight to the Farrell family cemetery. No one had eaten yet, and they were hungry.
“Master, I’ll take Miss Audrey back to eat first. We’ve flown for several hours and came here right after getting off the plane. I’m starving. By the way, there’s also Lilian. You may not know her, but she’s my apprentice, although I didn’t officially take her in as one. She’s actually the apprentice of the miracle doctor. I don’t want to steal someone else’s apprentice, so in my spare time, I just teach her some martial arts. That’s all.
In my heart, she’s still my apprentice. She’s a very sensible and powerful girl. I brought her here to burn some incense for you and to meet you. I’m alive today, and able to return to see you, thanks to the miracle doctor and Lilian.
In the past, the miracle doctor spent a lot of effort on me, and later, it was Lilian. For my health, to help me live longer, she’s done so much. They are both my benefactors.”
Mr. Jimenez turned his head to Lilian and said, “Lilian, please burn some incense for my master, so he can take a good look at you.”
Lilian glanced at Clarissa and the others with a warning look, then walked over to burn incense for Mr. Jimenez’s master.
Audrey and Darrell kept a close eye on Clarissa and the others, lest they try to escape or launch a surprise attack.
Clarissa silently wondered what had happened to Mr. Dunn. Why hadn’t he set the fire?
Even if he didn’t set the fire, there should have been some sort of movement by now.
Or maybe he thought it wasn’t the right time?
Or perhaps someone was ambushed around Audrey?
Lilian helped Mr. Jimenez over.
Clarissa immediately stopped speculating and focused her attention on Mr. Jimenez.
Audrey and Darrell then went to pay their respects.
“Mr. Jimenez, I haven’t seen you for decades, but you haven’t changed much,” Clarissa said softly.
Her eyes reddened as she added, “You’ve just aged a lot. You used to be so majestic, walking with such confidence. When I was a child, I had to run to keep up with you. Now you need someone to support you. Time is indeed unforgiving.”
Mr. Jimenez stopped three steps away from Clarissa.
He stared at her coldly and said in an icy tone, “It’s a miracle I’m still alive. You sent so many killers to hunt me down, but I survived. You killed the head of the family, the third young lady, Miss Audrey’s father, and her grandparents. And yet, you’ve been allowed to live to such an old age. Truly, God is unjust!”
Clarissa’s mouth twitched as she retorted, “I’m old? I’m more than 20 years younger than you! And you say I killed my sisters? Do you have any evidence? Who can prove that I did it? Did my sister tell you?”
Clarissa began to get emotional. “You keep talking about my sister. In your eyes, it’s always about her! Mr. Jimenez, my sister has been married for a long time. She and my brother-in-law have a very good relationship. They have two precious daughters!
Their family of four is so happy. My sister just used you and never loved you. Why are you so infatuated with her? You say I tried to have you killed, but how could I do that? I liked you so much; how could I order someone to hunt you down, Mr. Jimenez? This must be a misunderstanding. There has to be a misunderstanding.”
As long as no evidence was presented, Clarissa planned to deny everything and refuse to admit any guilt.
She wanted to see what their next move would be.
If possible, she didn’t want to die alongside Audrey and the others.
She had wealth, power, and influence. Although her marriage wasn’t happy, her sons were useless, and her daughter wasn’t on the same page with her, she still wanted to live a good life. She wanted to live to be a hundred years old.
Married At First Sight Chapter 3607
Married At First Sight Chapter 3607 – Mr. Jimenez and Audrey had no intention of presenting evidence that Clarissa killed the previous matriarch Farrell at this time or place.
They didn’t just want justice; they wanted everyone in Jensburg to see Clarissa’s true nature and destroy her reputation.
But with only a few people around, their impact would be limited, and they risked Clarissa destroying the evidence.
Audrey and Darrell helped Mr. Jimenez as they approached Clarissa. Audrey said coldly, “Don’t worry, we have both evidence and witnesses for the awful things you’ve done. You’ll get what you deserve. Dr. Carden, let’s head to the hotel. Liberty and the others are waiting for us to have dinner.”
Lilian nodded. As they passed by, Mr. Jimenez stopped and looked at Clarissa with hatred, though his voice was calm. He said, “I served the previous matriarch Farrell in life, and I belong to her in death. To me, you’re just her sister. If she hadn’t loved you and the third young madam so much, I wouldn’t even want to look at you. How can you compare to her? You’re ungrateful and will never be as good as your sister!”
He added, “She raised you like her own child, but you showed no love for her in return. A dog would have been more loyal than you.”
After speaking, Mr. Jimenez turned away, not wanting to look at Clarissa any longer.
Audrey added, “Your husband cheated on you, your biological daughter disagrees with you, your three sons are failures, your son’s marriage is falling apart, and your adopted daughter, whom you cared for over 20 years, died because of you. This is all karma.
“You’re heartless and ungrateful. You killed my parents and my third aunt. God sees everything. You and your family will pay for your wrongdoings.”
Clarissa’s face darkened. She said nothing, only glaring at Audrey and the others as they walked away. Mr. Jimenez’s words hurt—he said a dog was better than her, and he would only acknowledge her because of her sister.
She wondered why Mr. Jimenez, who watched her grow up, never had feelings for her. She was younger and just as attractive as her sister, so why did he never care for her?
Clarissa clenched her fists. She knew Mr. Jimenez was right—she was ungrateful. Audrey said she’d be punished, and it was true. Her husband betrayed her after decades of marriage, and her sons depended on her too much. Without her, they’d soon fall apart, maybe even be ruined by others. Her adopted daughter’s death was her greatest sorrow, and her biological daughter, Kathryn, though capable, didn’t share her views.
But so what? Clarissa sneered. As long as she was alive, she wouldn’t give up. She wouldn’t step down as head of the family. If she had to go down, she’d take others with her. If she couldn’t live well, neither would they.
She pulled out her phone and called Mr. Dunn, but he didn’t answer.
Married At First Sight Chapter 3608
Married At First Sight Chapter 3608 – Mr. Dunn not answering Clarissa’s call worried her. He never ignored her calls, so if he didn’t pick up, it meant he was either injured, under control, or busy dealing with something.
She called again, and after a moment, Mr. Dunn answered.
“Mr. Dunn, did something go wrong?” Clarissa asked quietly.
“No,” Mr. Dunn replied.
“No? I just called you, and you didn’t answer. Why didn’t you follow our plan?” Clarissa demanded, suspicious.
Mr. Dunn explained, “I was busy evacuating everyone and didn’t have time to answer. It seems they saw through our plan and made countermeasures. If we proceed, we’ll fail and be caught in the act, which would be very bad for us.”
“You mean they have people near the cemetery, waiting for us to make a move so they can catch us?” Clarissa asked.
“Yes,” Mr. Dunn confirmed.
Clarissa’s face darkened further. “We planned this carefully, just the two of us. How did they know? Is there a traitor among your people?”
It was frustrating to miss such a good opportunity. The next time she saw Mr. Jimenez, he’d have more protection, making it even harder to act without hurting herself. The only option left would be to go down with them, which was the worst-case scenario she wanted to avoid.
“Find out if there’s a traitor,” Clarissa ordered. “I want to know if someone betrayed us or if they’re just that powerful.”
Mr. Dunn didn’t believe there was a traitor but wasn’t sure. If there wasn’t, it would mean their opponents had an incredibly strong information network, which was even more concerning. He hoped it was a betrayal rather than facing such a formidable enemy.
“Ma’am, I’ll find out,” Mr. Dunn promised. “Have you confirmed it was Mr. Jimenez?”
“I’d recognize him even if he turned to ashes,” Clarissa replied. “It’s him, without a doubt.”
Mr. Jimenez was the only man Clarissa had ever truly loved, though he never loved her back. To him, she was always just a child, even as she grew older. The age difference of over 20 years didn’t bother her, but it did him. While other men would have appreciated her youth, Mr. Jimenez didn’t care. Still, she was drawn to him.
Clarissa continued, “Audrey said she has both evidence and witnesses. Besides Mr. Jimenez, is there anyone else? Look into it carefully, and remember, only use the worst option when there’s no other choice left.”
Married At First Sight Chapter 3609
Married At First Sight Chapter 3609 – Mr. Dunn respectfully replied, “I always follow your orders, ma’am. I won’t act on my own.”
If Clarissa decided to die with her enemy, Mr. Dunn would join her and the enemy in the afterlife. They were loyal to their master in both life and death.
Mr. Jimenez was an exception; he didn’t follow his master back then because he wanted to avenge her.
Clarissa still trusted Mr. Dunn. She once told her daughter that while others might betray her, Mr. Dunn never would.
Clarissa hung up the phone.
Audrey and the others descended the mountain, left the Farrell family cemetery, and visited the adjacent cemetery. They also burned some incense for Audrey’s father and grandparents before returning to the taxi.
The taxi driver grew nervous while waiting because Audrey and the others took too long. If he hadn’t seen them visiting the other cemetery and the gravekeepers, he might have thought they were ghosts.
Once Audrey and the others got in the car, the driver quickly drove off. He sped up, afraid that driving slowly might invite ghosts to appear.
Even in broad daylight, Jensburg’s winters were bitterly cold, and the sun rarely showed itself. Without sunlight, the remote cemetery felt gloomy and eerie, giving people the chills.
At the Queen family’s house, Silver Fox and other elders had arrived in Jensburg before Audrey and the others. After Donald and his wife learned about their identities from their daughter, they personally went to the Fortress Hotel and invited them several times before they agreed to stay at the Queen family’s house.
In addition to Silver Fox and his group, the current head of the Lafayette family and his wife had also flown in from Meadspring. He claimed they were there to see the snow, but no one believed him. Meadspring often had heavy snowfall in winter, so there was no need to come to Jensburg just for that. But no one called out his lie.
The head of the Lafayette family introduced himself, greeted Zachary and the others, and had dinner with them. The Queen family naturally invited him and his wife to stay at their home.
The house, usually quiet, suddenly became lively with the arrival of these distinguished guests. Donald, who often found his home too quiet, was happy with the change.
The Silver Fox group was missing only the old doctor. The four who came were older than Donald, but they didn’t seem as mature as him. Instead, they resembled old lady York, behaving like mischievous kids. Donald felt like a parent around them.
When Silver Fox found out that Hayden was actually a woman, he slapped his thigh and said to Donald in front of Kevin, “Mr. Queen, why didn’t you tell us earlier? If we had known your eldest son was actually a daughter, we would have arranged a marriage with my most talented apprentice, Alijah. He would have been the perfect match for your daughter.”
“But that old chili from the York family got to her first. How did she figure out your eldest son was actually a woman?”
Hearing Silver Fox refer to his grandmother as an “old chili,” Kevin frowned and said, “Senior Silver Fox, my grandmother isn’t hot-tempered at all.”
Silver Fox laughed, “She’s not hot-tempered in front of you. She loves your grandfather deeply, and you’re her grandchildren. She only shows love to you, so you never get to see her fiery side.”
Married At First Sight Chapter 3610
Married At First Sight Chapter 3610 – “But when she was young, she was really fiery. She would admire Audrey and Elisa because they were just like her when she was young. I wonder why she didn’t arrange for Elisa to marry one of you brothers?”
Kevin glanced at Zachary.
Seeing that Zachary remained calm, Kevin spoke up, “Elisa once liked my elder brother, but he never had feelings for her. Her love for him was known to everyone in Wiltspoon. After he married my sister-in-law, Elisa gave up and moved on.”
“Grandma knew Elisa once loved my elder brother. If she tried to match her with one of us, it would have been awkward. We were also worried that Elisa might compare us to him, which wouldn’t be good. Even though we think we’re pretty good, we know we’re not quite at his level.”
Silver Fox smiled and said, “I understand. But Elisa’s fiancé is also excellent. When she marries into the Johnson family, I will feel relieved.”
The men of the Johnson family were indeed impressive.
Look at Lilian’s husband; he was great. He tolerated everything about her and pampered her immensely.
Of course, Lilian herself was strong and came from a powerful family.
In their husbands’ families, whether it was Lilian or her sisters-in-law, they were treated well. Their husbands, who had status and power, treated them like queens.
If Bianca and the others get married in the future, they will likely have a good life too.
Seeing the apprentices they raised find good homes, Ezequiel and the other elders felt content.
But there were still many apprentices who didn’t want to get married. They couldn’t just sit back and do nothing—they had to encourage them to settle down.
When it came to their apprentices’ marriages, should they follow old lady York’s example, pick out potential partners everywhere, and then arrange for their apprentices to pursue them?
If they didn’t intervene, many of them would end up like the old brothers—never marrying.
Even though they themselves never married, they felt their lives were fulfilling. But they still couldn’t resist urging their apprentices to marry, hoping they would live more traditional lives.
It seemed like a common issue among the elders—worrying about the younger generation not getting married.
Donald smiled and added, “Hayden liked to dress that way and insisted we tell others we had two sons. We spoiled her too much and went along with it. We don’t know how old Mrs. York found out Hayden was a girl or when she set her sights on her. Even Kevin didn’t know. But it’s all worked out well. We’re very happy with this marriage and Kevin as a son-in-law.”
Donald spoke sincerely; he and his wife were especially fond of Kevin as a son-in-law.
Sometimes, Hayden and Hugh would joke that their parents favored their son-in-law over them.
But they never considered that without their daughter, their parents wouldn’t have such a wonderful son-in-law like Kevin.
Kevin was just too good. He could cook delicious meals, go fishing with Donald, and spend the whole day with him.
In short, in Donald’s eyes, Kevin was the perfect son-in-law. He was afraid someone might try to steal him away. He wasn’t worried about anyone stealing Hayden from Kevin—Hayden was too cold and wouldn’t be easily swayed.
