Married at First Sight Chapter 1567
Zachary said, “You don’t have to put too much pressure on yourself. Nana told you that, but the handover will be at least a few years later. Even the smartest and greatest missus in charge will take a few years to fully take over everything. “Look at the account books when you have time so you can learn where the properties are and what businesses are in operation. You can take your time with the rest.” Serenity nodded and responded, “That’s what Mom said. She said I’ll be able to take over after two or three years.” “It’s thanks to the missus in charge every term that the number of stores and properties grew. If the money earned isn’t fully spent, it can be used to repurchase stores and houses, or it can also be invested in other financial products. In any case, money is used to generate more money.” Serenity replied, “I’m still under a lot of pressure after hearing what you said. I dare not say that I have an eye for investment.” “It’s not difficult. You just need to purcha

Serenity left Zachary’s shoulder and looked at him. She seemed gossipy. “What did the psychic say? Can Julian be treated? Or did he lie about it?” “According to Mr. Bucham’s investigation, Julian didn’t lie about it. I don’t think he’d have the guts to come up with such a lie. As powerful as he is, his dad is still the head of the family. Since Mr. Bucham still hasn’t completely let go of everything, Julian won’t be able to get away.” Serenity asked, “So he really has hypoactive sexual desire disorder?” Zachary nodded. Julian’s update came from Zachary pestering and asking his nana. “Then… What did the psychic say?” Julian was also an excellent man, but it was unfortunate that he had hypoactive sexual desire disorder. A person with such a disorder could only depend on fate to find a partner and live a normal life. Otherwise, Julian would be someone who was only living in the shell of a man. He was normal in all aspects but did not react to women. Zachary answered, “Th

Serenity thought of her main task at the moment, which was to first figure out all of her in-laws’ family properties. This was to prepare her to become the head missus in the future. With her attention distracted, she would not dwell on the matter of being pregnant or not. Zachary embraced her again and whispered a few words in her ear. Serenity blushed right away and pinched his thigh. Zachary played along and shouted, “Honey, are you trying to kill your husband?” “Come on, I didn’t even use force. You screamed like a little girl,” Serenity commented. Zachary laughed out loud. Meanwhile, at the Stones, Mrs. Stone was helped into the house by the housekeeper and a strange man. When Elisa, who was about to go out, saw this, she threw her bag onto the sofa and quickly went forward. She asked anxiously, “Mom, what happened to you?” She remembered that her mom mentioned going out for a walk to get some fresh air. Mrs. Stone was assisted to the sofa. She sat and answer

Along the way, Elisa kept thanking Mr. Reading. Mr. Reading smiled and said, “It was no trouble at all. Our families are considered relatives, so you don’t need to be so courteous, Ms. Stone.” He stopped at the villa entrance and looked at Elisa. Afterward, he reached into the hidden pocket of his suit and retrieved a small box of business cards he carried with him before pulling one of the cards out for her. “Ms. Stone, this is my business card.” Elisa took the card and looked at it. Mr. Reading’s name was Andrew Reading. He was the COO of Reading Group, and the CEO was his elder brother. After accepting Andrew’s business card, Elisa said, “Thanks for sending my mom home, Mr. Reading. I’ll treat you to a meal someday when you’re free.” Andrew grinned. “Okay. I’ll be leaving first, Ms. Stone.” Elisa walked him to his car and waved him goodbye. She stood at the same spot to watch him drive away. Remy, who just came out of the villa next door, happened to see this. He

Elisa answered, “I think so, but I’ve never met him by chance. The Readings are too low-key.” Remy hummed. He had never paid attention to the Readings either. The Readings’ business was not in Wiltspoon, and there was no collaboration between them and FC & Co. Their whole family kept a low profile, so Remy would not pay attention to them. Now, Remy had to watch out for Mr. Reading. For some reason, he felt that Mr. Reading would become his love rival. Elisa did not know that Remy was already on guard, preventing Mr. Reading from becoming his love rival. She asked Remy, “Are you not going home this holiday?” Remy answered, “It’s just for a few days, so I’m too lazy to go back and forth. Besides, I have to keep an eye on the renovation here.” He looked deeply at Elisa and added, “I’d prefer to go back with you.” Elisa smiled and did not answer. Nothing had happened between the two of them yet. It was still early for them to meet each other’s parents. “I’ll go back

Nevertheless, Alice knew her in-laws would be reluctant to have Elisa married far away. As excellent as Remy was, he was from Annenburg, which was far from Wiltspoon. It would take about three hours one-way by plane. If the Johnsons lived in Wiltspoon, and Remy liked Elisa, everyone in the Stones would be extremely satisfied. There would not have been such an incident. Clive pinched his wife’s hand, suggesting that she should not expose their mom even if she saw through her. They should wait and see what would happen. Clive loved his sister the most. He felt that Remy was a great man but was also reluctant for his sister to be married off far. If his sister had another option in Wiltspoon, he would not support Remy in pursuing her no matter what. As for Remy, he was very pressured. Even if he and Elisa loved each other, it would not be easy for him to win her over. Elisa did not have other thoughts. She thought that her whole family should be grateful to Andrew for send

Remy was not bothered by Mrs. Stone’s attitude. He was pursuing his future wife, so he had to be thick-skinned. He still asked with concern, “Mrs. Stone, have you applied ointment to your sprained foot? I also bought a few types of ointments for you. They’re meant for treating sprains and bruises.” After hearing what he said, Elisa opened the few big bags and found a small bag from the pharmacy in one of them. Inside were several bottles of ointments for sprains and bruises. “Remy, we have common ointments for families. My mom’s foot has been treated with it,” Elisa noted. Even so, she was moved by the fact that Remy brought ointments for her mom. Remy valued her family, which meant that he valued her. It turned out that being valued by the opposite sex could give such a warm feeling. When Elisa used to pursue Zachary, he did not even want to see her, let alone value her. Remy said, “As long as some ointment has been used. If it doesn’t help, remember to go to the hospita

Remy recalled when his big brother and sister-in-law received their marriage license. When his sister-in-law knew his brother’s true identity, her mom also tried everything to persuade them to divorce. Even so, Remy’s brother did not feel that his ego was damaged and used his actions to prove his sincerity. Remy’s brother and sister-in-law were able to be in love now after his brother got rid of his mother-in-law’s worries. It was not Remy’s first day receiving cold looks from Mrs. Stone. She had not been the nicest to him since she realized that he had other intentions. Mrs. Stone would normally be careful about not letting Elisa know, but she no longer cared. Remy believed that Mrs. Stone must be determined to stop him and Elisa from getting together. It would be a long and arduous journey for Remy to pursue his future wife. Remy elegantly drank the glass of water. He did not forget to care for Mrs. Stone. It took him half an hour to finish the glass of water. He said a

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.

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.

Zachary, afraid that his wife might refuse to spend time with him at his office in the future, emphasized that he was not busy today.He had already cleared his morning schedule because he needed to accompany his beloved wife for her prenatal checkup.His secretary was well aware of Serenity’s checkup dates. Whenever he saw Serenity turn up at the office with his boss, his secretary would quietly adjust his schedule.Sometimes, on the day of the Serenity’s checkup, his secretary would not schedule any appointments for Zachary at all.Even if appointments were scheduled, Zachary would request they be canceled or rescheduled.Now, in Zachary’s eyes, his wife’s matters were the most important.With Alex now able to share the workload, Zachary felt that he, as the eldest of his generation who had shouldered the bulk of the burden for so many years, deserved a break.Plus, there was the elite team the company had trained; if not now, then when would they be put to use?Everyone was

Tony turned around and left.Only after hearing the door close did Carrie dare to open her eyes.She had woken up while Tony and his son were on the phone, but she did not dare move, fearing that Tony might suspect her of eavesdropping.Just now, when that old lecher stood by the bed looking at her, there was definitely a murderous glint in his eyes. She could feel it.Sooner or later, he would kill her.Carrie was filled with panic. She wanted to escape but was afraid she would not succeed. No one was there to help her.For a moment, Carrie even considered running to Camryn to confess everything, but she quickly dismissed the thought. The reason she ended up in this situation was entirely due to Camryn.She and Camryn were sworn enemies. Their conflict would not end until one of them was dead. However, even if she died, she would drag Camryn down with her.-Meanwhile, in the CEO's office at York Corporation, Zachary, seated at his desk, kept glancing up at his pregnant wife.

“You should have gotten rid of them all back then and cultivated a network of people loyal only to you.” Manny felt that his father should not have spared those people in the first place.Tony said, “There were too many of them, all relatives and friends with the same goal as us. We couldn’t eliminate them all at once.”Back then, he had incited everyone to join him in wiping out the entire main family, sparing neither the elderly nor the children.It was because they were all from the collateral branches, jealous of the main family’s long-standing control, and shared a common goal that his conspiracy succeeded.He had also spent over a decade waiting for the right opportunity.Who would have thought that even after wiping out the main family, he still could not obtain the family seal, token, or totem? Without these, he could not become the true head of the family and could only act as a proxy. Many of the connections loyal to the head remained inaccessible.Moreover, much of the
