Married at First Sight Chapter 1690
Jessica simply wanted Hank to fully side with her.Her current situation was self-inflicted. She did not deserve sympathy.“Mom, why didn’t Dunc come today?” Sonny asked.He recalled visiting Dunc in the hospital with his mother yesterday. He asked, “Mom, hasn’t Dunc recovered?” Duncan said he would recover soon.Sonny thought that Duncan would be able to recover by today.Liberty said gently, “Dunc will need some time to recover. Do you miss him?”Sonny nodded.He was used to Duncan’s presence.He would not be accustomed to suddenly not seeing someone he had been seeing every day.“Mom, can you bring me to the hospital to visit Dunc?”Liberty recalled that Duncan did not want to meet her. However, he did not mention not wanting to meet Sonny. Anyway, she was concerned about Duncan’s injury. Although Duncan drove her out of the ward early morning yesterday, she felt that it had been a while since she last visited him. She hoped that Duncan could recover soon.“Okay. I’ll

After some thought, Camryn said, “Let me call my assistant and ask her when she’ll be back. I can only leave if someone can watch the shop.”Given that she wanted to socialize with the Lewises, it would be better for her to visit them in person to show her sincerity.She used her old-fashioned phone to call her shop assistant. The call connected shortly.“Ms. Camryn, I’m at the door,” the shop assistant said with a smile. Subsequently, she hung up and parked her e-bike before entering the shop.At the sight of Liberty and Sonny, the shop assistant greeted them with a grin and carried Sonny.Sonny felt that he was likable indeed.Camryn reminded the shop assistant about some things. After that, she followed Liberty and Sonny to visit Duncan in the hospital while bringing along the tonics.Upon their arrival at the hospital, Duncan still refused to meet Liberty.Camryn was dumbfounded when she heard that.Not only did he refuse to meet Liberty, but he also refused to meet Sonn

Lilian pinched her husband’s face while laughing.Lilian and Tim did not hold a wedding for the time being as she was pregnant. They registered their marriage first.Jane and Iris had given birth. Soon, Lilian’s baby would come into this world. Jane was pregnant with twins, which explained why her babies were born earlier than expected. Otherwise, Lilian’s baby would be almost the same age as Jane’s children.Jane had delivered her babies, whereas Lilian was still pregnant with a belly as big as a watermelon.Lilian’s baby was mischievous, showing strong movements.Sometimes, the baby could be seen arching Lilian’s stomach using his small legs or hands. At this point, Tim enjoyed playing with the fetus the most. Every night, when the fetal movement was strongest, he would be playing with the baby with Lilian’s stomach between them.Lilian had long since known that she was pregnant with a baby boy.Perhaps it was because she was a doctor. A brilliant doctor.Tim pulled a long

Tim scowled quietly.Lilian walked to a gazebo and sat under it.Naturally, Tim followed her.“Let’s get the butler to prepare some coffee and pastry to serve Mr. Callum when he comes later.”Tim took out his phone and ordered the butler to send some coffee, pastry, and fruit over.He also asked the butler to prepare Lilian’s favorite snacks.Ever since Lilian got pregnant, she had not been able to stop herself from eating whenever she was awake. She felt the need to eat snacks.She still had three meals a day. Even so, she did not gain much weight. Her nutrients were all absorbed by the baby in the womb.About ten minutes later, Callum walked to the gazebo with the butler.“Mr. Tim, Dr. Carden.”Callum greeted them with a smile.Tim looked sullen without saying a word. Once Lilian darted a glance at him, his expression became gentle. He politely greeted Callum, “Please take a seat, Mr. Callum.”Callum could tell that Tim disliked the sight of him.Given that Callum came o

Nevertheless, Lilian had a giant belly. Even when Lilian went out for a check-up, Tim had to bring along a few bodyguards to follow her closely and look after her.Callum quickly said, “Mr. Tim, I got it. Even if Dr. Carden promises to treat my fiancée’s eyes now, I won’t dare ask her to leave the house.”He fixed his eyes on Lilian and begged, “Dr. Carden, can you get the genius doctor to treat my fiancée? I can afford the cost no matter how expensive it is. I can also accept any requirements for it.”Lilian was an excellent doctor, and the genius doctor was even more outstanding. After all, he was Lilian’s mentor. Furthermore, the genius doctor had been well-known for over a decade. Being called a genius doctor, he was indeed an impressive figure.If the genius doctor was willing to treat Camryn’s eyes, there would be a strong likelihood that Camryn’s vision would be restored.The genius doctor and Lilian were Camryn’s last hope.Callum had promised Camryn that he would beg the

Upon receiving Lilian’s promise, Callum was relieved.He felt the need to leave FC Manor since Mr. Tim disliked the sight of him at that point.Callum learned about Tim and Lilian’s story from Zachary.Initially, Lilian merely wanted a child and not a man.She knew that Tim was looking for her, yet she did not tell him that she was the one.She even ran away.She did not even attend Jane and Ben’s wedding.By the time Tim found out that Lilian was the person he was looking for, he put aside his work and flew to where she was. After staying by Lilian’s side for half a year, he had feelings for her. It was only then that Lilian was willing to return to Annenburg with him.The public had no idea what Tim had done and how much he had sacrificed in those six months.However, one could imagine that Tim went through a hard time before winning Lilian’s heart and marrying her. Although they had not held their wedding, they were considered married couples. Tim enjoyed spending time with

Seeing the York brothers walking over, the Lewis family’s bodyguards’ heads hurt.“Mr. York.”The bodyguards bit the bullet and stepped forward to stop Zachary and the others from advancing. One of them said apologetically, “Mr. York, Mr. Duncan doesn’t want to meet you all. Please leave.”They did not want to be put in a difficult spot. Zachary said with a deep voice, “Is Duncan awake?”“He is, but he doesn’t have an appetite and refuses breakfast. Whether the food was delivered from home or Ms. Liberty, he wouldn’t eat it. He even knocked over the breakfast Ms. Liberty brought.“Mr. and Mrs. Lewis are inside trying to persuade Mr. Duncan to eat something. He’s in a terrible mood now.”The bodyguards said all that in hopes that Zachary and the rest would leave and not put them in a difficult spot. Actually, they wished Mr. Duncan would meet his friends and stop lying on the bed and driving himself into a dead end. Unfortunately, Mr. Duncan would not listen to Mr. and Mrs.

Mr. Lewis felt upset listening to his son yelling. Criticisms could no longer leave his mouth.Duncan was tall and massive. He looked like a rough man. After having lain in the hospital for over ten days, he had gotten thinner. People who were concerned about him would feel sad upon seeing his state. He could not stand and lacked the spirit and vigor he used to have. Even his gaze had lost its usual sparkle, replaced with despair. The doctor said that Duncan’s full recovery depended on whether he could reignite his confidence and persist in treating his legs and undergoing physiotherapy. It would be a long journey. There was a possibility that he would not make any progress even after time passed, and that could easily break someone’s spirits. “Darling, stop scolding Duncan.”Mrs. Lewis persuaded her husband, “It’s my fault. I insisted on feeding him even though he said he wasn’t hungry.”She wanted to take all the blame. Duncan watched his mother and averted his gaz

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

It was his father. Manny composed himself and picked up Tony’s call as he walked toward his car.“Hey, Pops.”“How’s it going, Manny? Has there been any progress?”Tony was still in Carrie’s room at the moment, but had gotten up and walked to the balcony to call his son.Carrie was still fast asleep, though her face was set in a frown. She was obviously discomfited.Tony had pestered her for the majority of last night, so it would be weird if she did not feel any discomfort.Despite her begging, Tony would not let her go. He even forcefully drugged her to make her mess around with him while out of it. He was simply an old pervert.Before she passed out, she cursed him in her heart. However, she knew that Tony only treated her so roughly because she was just his mistress—a tool for him to vent his frustrations on.If she really was his wife, he definitely would not treat her like this.In the past, she had ambitions of taking Mrs. Longbottom’s place and becoming the real missus

Tati also finished her plate of pastries.She followed Isabella out.“Isa, you’re always so busy and exhausted. If you’re feeling even a little unwell, you should have a good rest. Stay home for the day. I can handle the work you have on hand. It’s the same either way.”Tati wanted Isabella to take the day off so Isabella could spend some time with Austin and nurture their relationship.However, Isabella still declined Tati’s kind offer.She said, “Not today. There’s an important meeting today, and I have two important clients to meet. I’m fine, really. Don’t worry. From now on, I won’t touch alcohol.”Given her current status and position, no one would dare to force her to drink during social engagements.Many people also knew that Isabella would not drink outside her home, fearing that she might fall victim to someone’s schemes.However, Isabella would occasionally make an exception. When she was in a good mood, she would have a couple of drinks.Hearing this, Tati stopped t

Austin still smiled gently and said, “It’s all thanks to Ms. Isabella’s guidance.”He felt that he had indeed improved a lot.Grandma May really understood him well. The wife she picked for him could actually help improve his culinary skills.“After eating the sweets, I feel much better.” Tati picked up another piece of pastry and ate it.Austin quietly retreated, not wanting to disturb their conversation and also to avoid overhearing their private matters.“Just ignore him. Are you really going to skip work because of him?”Isabella added calmly to Tati, “If you let him provoke you, he’ll only cling to you even more. If you act like he doesn’t exist and don’t respond no matter what he does, he’ll naturally give up once he sees that you’re completely unresponsive.”Tati said, “I’m afraid that he’ll go and bother Edith and Eleanor if he doesn’t get anywhere with me. They don’t have the same resolve as we do.”She, therefore, decided to bear the brunt of it.“Every time I see hi

Austin replied, “Both Mr. Louis and Mr. Phillip woke up very early, especially Mr. Phillip. He gets up earlier than Mr. Louis every morning. It’s really hard on him, getting up so early in such cold weather.”Sometimes, he himself felt like staying in bed a little longer, reluctant to leave the warm comfort of his blankets.Even after the New Year, Satbury remained quite cold. In contrast, over in Wiltspoon, the temperatures had begun to reach a high of over seventy degrees Fahrenheit in the daytime, with nighttime lows around fifty degrees.The two provinces and cities were simply incomparable. The temperatures in Wiltspoon were just so very comfortable for Satbury locals.Isabella smiled and said, “Phillip is just afraid he’ll get here too late and that you’ll assume he’s not coming over for breakfast, then not prepare any for him. He's such a little foodie.”The house was never short of snacks for the little ones. In fact, any goodies were always reserved for them first.Yet,

Even when she attended banquets, she would show up in formal clothing. Isabella did not remember the last time she wore a dress. Perhaps it was when she was in third grade. In fact, she liked wearing pretty princessy dresses when she was young. Her mother had told her that.As Isabella was the first child and extremely adorable, Delphine had dolled her up like a princess. Her pretty dresses filled the closet. Her parents, aunts, uncles, and relatives would always gift her many beautiful dresses. As she grew up, perhaps when she was in fourth grade, she stopped wearing dresses. Regardless of who gave her new pieces, she would refuse to wear them and give them to her cousins instead. After everyone realized she disliked dresses, they gradually stopped giving her them. Delphine had asked Isabella why she disliked wearing dresses. Isabella reasoned that she could not walk quickly enough while wearing one. She valued speed and efficiency. Delphine said she had alway

While the private chefs Ms. Isabella had hired in the past were respectful, they were leaning toward flattery instead of sincere dedication, like how Austin was toward Ms. Isabella.Dominic was experienced. He could sense that Ms. Isabella treated Austin differently. She was also a special existence to Austin. It was normal for young people to be attracted to each other. Initially, Dominic wanted to advise Austin not to even think about dating Ms. Isabella. However, upon discovering that Austin was a young master of a wealthy family, he decided not to interfere. Dominic was glad that he did nothing.Austin returned to the house. Instead of heading straight to the kitchen, he went upstairs. He stopped outside of Isabella’s room and knocked on the door lightly. No response came from within the room. Perhaps Austin was too soft when he knocked. He knocked on the door again with more force and asked, “Are you up yet, Ms. Isabella? It’s time to have breakfast.”Isabella w
