Married at First Sight Chapter 1314
“Kevin, find a reason to invite her to a meal at one of our hotels.”Kevin paused. “Nana… What excuse am I going to use to invite her? ‘Thank you for scaring my nana until she was hospitalized’?”Grandma May was speechless.Then, she said, “You’re a smart boy, you can think of something. Don’t think that I don’t know what you’re thinking. Mr. Queen is a great person and is a perfect match for you. Your mouth never stops chattering, but Mr. Queen doesn’t talk much. You two won’t be bored together.”“Nana, you’re also calling her Mr. Queen. When I look at her, it’s really as if I’m looking at a man. She won’t admit that she’s a woman either. You keep trying to push us together, but I feel like I’m looking for a brother instead of a wife. It feels like I’m gay.”Grandma May laughed. “She’s very convincing at playing the role of a man, but experienced people will be able to tell by hearing her voice. Her deliberate deep voice is different from your natural baritone. Her voice is still

“Just be happy with what you have. Although I worry about your marriage, I’m not like that old friend of mine. I’ll help you find the right girl according to your character so that you’re free to develop feelings for yourself. I’m showing you more than enough respect.“Your parents are also irresponsible. They only know how to nag you a little but never take any action. That’s why a pack of old bones like me had to get her hands dirty.“I know you guys scold me every day for being overbearing.”Kevin immediately defended, “Nana, we’ve never scolded you, much less for being overbearing. Our nana is the smartest. We all love you very much.”Their parents only nagged them about getting married but never took any action. They simply let the old woman do the heavy lifting instead because they knew the boys respected her the most and would not be angry no matter what she did.Even Zachary and his temper gave in to his nana in the end.Besides, Zachary and Serenity were very happy now,
Married at First Sight Chapter 1316
Lily had a habit of going on a stroll after eating.Mrs. Lewis looked at Duncan.Duncan and his three brothers were talking about the recent trends in the stock market.He did not notice the conversation between Lily and his mother, much less his mother staring at him.It was his second brother who noticed first. He nudged Duncan and whispered, “Mom is looking at you. I think she wants you to do something.”Duncan turned to look at his mother and smiled. “What’s up, Mom?”Why was she looking at him like that?“Lily wants to go on a stroll. Go with her.”Mrs. Lewis did not expect this son of hers to appreciate the pains she was taking, so she spoke bluntly and told him to accompany Lily on a walk.Duncan looked at Lily and said, “Ms. Harmon, you’ve lived in my home for a while now, so you should be familiar with the environment here. You can’t go very far, so you can just walk by yourself. You won’t get lost.”Mrs. Lewis’s expression darkened. She almost wanted to throw someth

Duncan’s three brothers did not dare say more.They were afraid their mother would blame them for spoiling Duncan if they spoke up for him again, causing him to still remain single at the age of thirty-six.Duncan accompanied Lily out of the house. The two strolled casually along the paved path in the courtyard.However, Duncan’s pace was fast.Lily wore high heels, so she struggled to follow him.“Duncan.”Lily was not the type who was willing to suffer for the sake of others. She jogged up and reached out to pull Duncan’s hand.“What is it?”Duncan’s attitude toward Lily was neither good nor bad. He did not hate Lily, but he just did not feel a spark with her.He also did not like how his family was arranging a girlfriend for him without his consent.“Are you running a race with me?”Duncan’s dark eyes flashed. “Didn’t you say you wanted to take a stroll? Even if you wanted to race, you can’t race after just eating. It’ll upset your stomach.”Lily paused before stating, “

Lily agreed. “I’m like that too. I only talk about work while I’m at work, and no talking shop while I’m resting.“Duncan, can I ask you some questions?”Duncan replied, “Go ahead.”“Our parents want us to be a couple, and I’m quite pleased with you. You can say that I like you very much, but it’s definitely too early to say that I love you. However, I believe I will be able to fall in love with you with time.”In Lily’s eyes, Duncan was her target.She liked him and wanted to conquer him, but when it came to love... Even she did not believe she loved him now, let alone Duncan.There was no such thing as love at first sight when it came to them.“However, you keep running away from me. Is it because I’m not good enough? Or do you have another person in your heart?”Duncan did not expect Lily to be so blunt about it.She did not hide anything or beat around the bush. Instead, she asked him directly. This character of hers was quite suitable as a friend.He looked at Lily. For

Duncan did not like his mother setting him up with girls, but he had to admit that Lily’s words were reasonable.“After talking about it, I think we share similar views, and you also think I’m excellent. Why don’t we give it a try? If you still can’t fall in love with me, I won’t continue to pester you.”It was not like Lily had no other suitors.Duncan was silent.“Do you have someone you like, Duncan?”“No.”Duncan denied that he had someone he liked, but the image of that once-fat figure gradually slimming down flittered in his mind.He adamantly denied to Zachary and the others that he had any feelings for Liberty.Why did he suddenly think of her now?He liked Sonny, not Sonny’s mom.Duncan snapped back to his senses and hurriedly waved Liberty’s figure out of his mind, not daring to think about her again.Lily smiled. “Since you don’t have anyone you like, let’s give it a try. If you have someone you like, tell me who she is and I’ll see how I’m inferior to her. I’ll t

Liberty said that there was no need to force herself if she could not meld into the social circle.When it was time, she could step into the circle naturally without deliberately trying to.Zachary appreciated that part about his sister-in-law.She knew her place but did not put herself down.“Am I wearing this? I don’t think it looks good.”Serenity looked at the gown Zachary picked out for her and felt that there was something odd about it. However, she could not pinpoint what it was.“It’s good, it’s very good. You have a good figure, good looks, and a great mien. You’ll look good in anything.”Serenity held the gown and said, “I’ll go pick one myself.”All the clothes in the cloakroom were prepared by Zachary. There were so many different evening gowns that she could open up a dress store.When Serenity chose her dresses, she only cared if they looked good and did not bother picking the ones that covered the most skin. As a result, every gown she picked was rejected by Zac

“I’ll help you with your makeup, honey.”Serenity complied with his wishes and changed into the most conservative dress in her wardrobe. Zachary volunteered to help his wife with her makeup again.Serenity refused without even thinking about it.“I still care about my appearance.”Her words made Zachary’s mouth flap several times without saying anything.His reaction amused Serenity, and she asked with a smile, “Do you know how to do makeup? Don’t think I don’t know what you’re thinking. You’re going to paint my face like a ghost so no one will look at me.”Zachary was speechless. “I’ve never helped a woman with her makeup before, but I wouldn’t make you look like a ghost to scare people.”“Forget it, I can’t trust you. I’ll do it myself. Go and get yourself ready. We’ll be heading out soon.”Zachary refused to leave and said, “I don’t have anything to prepare. I just need to change into a suit, switch my home slippers for leather shoes, and the finishing touch will be you help

“A baby’s face changes almost every day. We’ll only know who he takes after when he’s a little older.”Serenity agreed. “I should call Elisa and share this news with her.”Jasmine probably did not have time to tell her friends about her newborn. Serenity also forgot to inform Elisa because she was too worried about Jasmine. Zachary told her to call Elisa only after they were inside the car. There were too many people in the hospital. Serenity held back her excitement and immediately called Elisa when she got in the car. Elisa was extremely busy at the company. She was the only one who could manage their joint company at that moment because Serenity and Jasmine were pregnant. Even if they wanted to return to the company to work, Elisa would not allow them. Rest was of utmost importance for pregnant women. Elisa was unmarried and not pregnant. She did not mind being busier. She only picked up Serenity’s call after some time.“Seren.”Elisa held the phone in her left h

“All that matters is that you’re okay, honey. Let’s not have more children. We’ll just have this one son.”Josh spoke while holding Jasmine’s hand.Women had to experience immense pain when giving birth. It came with many risks as well. Josh had heard other people saying that a woman usually had one foot in the grave during childbirth.He was genuinely shocked after accompanying Jasmine through her labor. He had been terrified and worried that something would happen to Jasmine.Luckily, everything ended well. Jasmine and their son were safe. However, Josh did not want to experience something like that again. Having one child was enough. There was no need for a second or third child. The Buchams were a big family anyway. He did not have to bear the responsibility of expanding the family alone.“Okay. We shall not have another baby.”Although Jasmine was brimming with motherly love and recovery from a vaginal delivery was quicker, she still thought childbirth was too

It was not just Camila. The rest of the people there also had the same thought. Josh and Jasmine had a great relationship. If something happened to Jasmine, Josh would be devastated and lose all hope of living.“Congratulations. The mother has given birth to a boy safely. The baby boy is six pounds and three ounces.”The people who brought Josh out were the anesthetist and nurse.The nurse instinctively reported the good news when she saw the crowd.Then, she explained, “The father probably fainted from shock after the baby was born. Come over and help bring him to the side to rest. The mother won’t be out that quickly.”Upon hearing her words, everyone’s mood brightened up.Camila, whose legs felt weak just now, was immediately filled with strength and stood up. Without Drake's help, she went to the nurse and asked, “Does the baby need to be in the incubator since he was born prematurely?”The nurse replied, “We’ll put the baby in the incubator and observe him for a while. If

Zachary was also worried that Serenity would go into premature labor out of shock. He also persuaded her to go for her checkup in a gentle voice. They could not do anything but wait anyway.Serenity finally decided to conduct her prenatal checkup first. Zachary accompanied her. Just moments after they left, the door to the delivery suite opened. A nurse stood there and shouted, “Is Jasmine Sox’s husband here?”“Yes. I’m her husband,” replied Josh quickly. He dashed to the nurse. “You must save Jas, doctor. Save the mother no matter what.”His family members behind him also echoed, “That’s right. No matter what happens, you have to save Jasmine.”The nurse said, “The mother is fine. It’s just that she wants her husband to accompany her as she’s in a lot of pain.”Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.Josh was about to rush inside but was stopped by the nurse.She asked him to change his clothes before taking him inside the delivery suite.Jasmine was wailing in pain. When

With advanced medical technology, a premature baby could still be healthy if taken good care of in the incubator. Serenity said, “Jasmine should be at thirty-five weeks. I just don’t understand why she would suddenly go into labor. Did she fall at home?“Or did she eat something that made her go into labor?”Zachary said, “That’s most likely not the case. Josh’s cousin is Jasmine’s dietician and keeps an eye on her food every day. There’s no way Jasmine would’ve eaten something bad unless she ate it secretly.”Serenity and Zachary suddenly went silent. Pregnant women had weird appetites. Once they had a craving, they could not go unsatisfied. Sometimes, they would even crave fruits that were not in season. Serenity herself was one of them. Once, she woke up in the middle of the night craving mac and cheese. Of course, Zachary, the ever-doting husband, had to satisfy her request. However, where could he find mac and cheese at that hour?Ultimately, he had to drive to the

People would reap what they had sown. They would have to bear the consequences of their actions. Sometimes, interfering in another person’s fate would backfire. After chatting for some time, Serenity said, “I have to go for my checkup now, Liberty. Let’s talk again when you’re free another day.“By the way, I’ll get someone to bring Sonny to you this weekend. He misses you.”“Okay,” said Liberty. After the call ended, Serenity put her phone into her bag and stood up. She told the man behind the office desk, “It’s almost time, babe. Let’s go.”“Okay. I’m almost done.”Zachary quickly signed and stamped a document before closing it. He walked over with the document in hand. Serenity and Zachary left the office together. He handed the document to his secretary. The secretary did not expect him to pass the document to him personally. He had thought of entering Zachary’s office to request it later. The secretary watched Zachary and Serenity leave. He could not believe

Lilian often messed with the medicinal herbs her master cultivated, which led to her being chased and scolded by him.It seemed her son had inherited her restless nature.“How’s Sonny been lately?”Liberty had been on edge these past few days because Caroline had been preparing to lure her three brothers into a trap and had not had time to call her son.“Same as usual, but it seems like things have soured again with the Browns.”Serenity added, “Sonny still answers when Hank calls him, but he doesn’t seem happy when his grandparents visit. He doesn’t like going to the Browns’ place, and he doesn’t want to take their calls either.“Hank’s mother and sister are truly incorrigible. They must have been badmouthing you and Duncan in front of Sonny again, which is why he’s upset with them.”During the holidays, Sonny had stayed with the Browns for a few days and started to warm up to them.However, who would have thought that the mother and daughter would start spouting nonsense in f

Once the baby was born, he would apply the knowledge he had learned over the past few months to care for the baby. He was determined to be a competent and responsible father.Serenity released her arms from around him and shifted to her side.Zachary let go, too, allowing her to turn.Then, she planted countless gentle kisses on his face.“Babe, with you here, the baby and I will be just fine. Don’t worry too much,” Serenity comforted softly after kissing him.“You are my rock. If even you are nervous, I’ll start feeling anxious too, and that won’t be good.”Hearing this, Zachary immediately said, “Seren, don’t worry. I’ll protect both of you. Alright, I won’t be so nervous anymore.”He gently touched her rounded belly again. “Lil’ Bun should be a calm kid. He’s not that mischievous.”He felt that the baby’s movements were not too intense.Serenity wanted to tell him that there were times when the baby kicked more vigorously, but she decided against it, knowing it would only m

“Just hit the gym a few more times. Lately, you’ve been spending less time there.”Every day after work, he would come home and orbit around her. As a result, he had less time to work out.It was normal to gain a few pounds eating well and exercising less. Did he really think he could eat anything without gaining weight?The reason he could maintain a model-like physique before was that he exercised daily.“Ow.” Serenity suddenly cried out in pain.This startled Zachary so much that he nearly jumped up, asking anxiously, “Is it stomach pain? Are you going into labor? Let’s go to the hospital right away.”He was about to pick her up, but Serenity stopped him by pressing his hand.“Don’t be so nervous, Zachary. It's not time yet. It’s not happening so soon. It’s just the baby kicking again. His kicks are getting stronger.”As she entered the later stages of pregnancy, the little one inside her was growing stronger. Sometimes, a couple of kicks from the baby could actually hurt.
