Married at First Sight Chapter 5422
“It’s true that you look remarkably like the late family head who passed away decades ago, but even those unrelated by blood can share a resemblance. How can you prove you’re the son of the late family head?” Laurence said solemnly, “Without the family heirlooms, I wouldn’t even show my face around here or call every family member here.” The mention of the bloodline was such a low blow since his immediate family was dead. Laurence was aware of the family rules. Susan’s attempt to use the bloodline against him would not work. Susan scanned the room before her gaze fell on Laurence’s handsome face. Laurence kept his cool, looking like he had everything in the bag. She knew that a DNA test would not hold Laurence back. Still, she said, “Since you have everything, why don’t you show us the totem?” The totem was the key. In any case, the totem had always been carefully protected by the successive family heads. The totem would only be shown to everyone when a new head was takin

Roxy tore into Laurence too. The fact that Laurence got back to Havenmill more quickly caught them off guard. “Grandpa, we have lost the upper hand.” Tony replied, “I know.” They were backed into a corner. Laurence was far more cunning than they had imagined. It was bad enough that they could not get a good read on him. After years of rivalry, Tony thought he knew Laurence inside out. Yet today, Tony realized there was a lot more to him. One little mistake, and they could lose their lives. “It’s so frustrating,” Roxy murmured under her breath. Ignoring her, Tony sank his back against the seat and closed his eyes. His mind was busy figuring out ways to turn the tables. He needed to get out of the deadlock. Susan sat on an armchair in the huge living room while Laurence took the couch. Noelle, along with the bodyguards, stood behind him. The senior family members were seated while others stood, packing the living room to the brim. The crowd spilled beyond the livin

The fact that Laurence could summon the whole family to be under one roof in a short amount of time sent a shiver down Susan’s spine. She suspected that Laurence had been in touch with the family members. Laurence, a Longbottom, was the CEO of Longtail group, and the company had established itself in Havenmill for a few years now. If Laurence knew about his history, he must have started planning the moment he set foot in the city. Well, that would not surprise Susan as much. However, terror gripped her as Laurence might have been interacting with the family members right under her nose. “We are back in Havenmill. It will take us half an hour to reach home. The traffic is horrible, with some parts of the road in a gridlock.” Tony added, “That’s a norm in the city. You know that. Don’t panic. Keep your composure. We knew he was coming. So long as he provides the heirlooms, he will be the head of the family. “So what if he proves to be a Longbottom? Shouldn’t he take a DNA test?

Tony said, “I never brought it up. I wouldn’t want to put family at risk.” He had a deeper bond with Susan’s offspring. Susan had built the empire alongside him and had been his biggest supporter. Susan’s family had provided a lot of resources as well. It was true that Tony had cheated on her more than a handful of times, but he had never neglected Susan. His connections, resources, and assets practically belonged to Susan’s children. It was his way of compensating Susan for turning a blind eye. That was what Susan had proposed back then. So long as Tony gave everything he had to her children, she could not care less about the lovers he had. Her only wish was that these mistresses would not carry a son for him. Since Tony already had a son, he did not need another son to take care of the family. He was allowed to have daughters out of wedlock. Most of the Longbottom girls did not have access to the family’s core businesses. Their assignment was to marry well and provide f

There was hatred in Roxy’s eyes. “I want to drive a wedge between Laurence and Noelle. The misunderstanding will drive them apart.” She hated Noelle the most. Noelle was uncompromisingly strict and highly skilled in combat. The point was, she had Laurence’s deepest trust and respect. The way Laurence looked at Noelle was something else. Roxy dared to say that Laurence was in love with Noelle. Noelle’s heart belonged to Laurence, too. “Grandpa, we can use Noelle. She’s loyal to Laurence, but she’s just a girl. She loves Laurence. Once Laurence produces the family heirlooms and takes over the family, his social standing will rise, but within the family, he will be bound by tradition. “Noelle is unfit to be Mrs. Longbottom. Can Laurence change the family law for her? With the senior family members around, they won’t let him get his way. Noelle is a good pawn to tear Laurence down.” Tony said, “I know, but that won’t work since they trust each other. They are too smart to get t

Tony said, “Louis is out of the question. Isabella practically raised him. It won’t be easy for you to wrap him around your finger.” Back then, Tony tried to set Manny up with Tati and did not bother to consider Isabella because the latter was a force to be reckoned with. Surely, Louis, growing up under Isabella’s guidance, would refuse to be tamed. “Who else is better, Grandpa? I have feelings for Louis. Laurence was just my mission, but it’s a different story with Louis.” Roxy honestly fancied Louis. It was love at first sight. Of course, Louis’s standing was the most attractive trait. He was a worthy match for her. Since Roxy was the granddaughter of the Longbottoms’ acting family head, she had every right to become the lady of the O’Connor household. Laurence was good-looking, but in terms of family hierarchy, he was technically her distant uncle. The family did not have proof that Laurence was a Longbottom before, but Manny assigned her to get close to him and find evi

To everybody’s surprise, Zachary grimacingly ignored Josh and stormed past him. The only thing Josh heard was Zachary callously telling Mr. Chaplin, “Notify all senior-level executives for a meeting now.” Josh wondered if the earth was about to shake. “Duly noted.” Mr. Chaplin was ahead of Josh in r

Liberty had just put the phone to her ear when she heard Hank Brown scolding her through the phone, “What do you normally teach Sonny? You’ve taught Sonny to have no respect, no friendship, and no spirit of sharing with his cousin! I said I’d buy him some toys and he said he didn’t want to give them

Serenity was aware of Elisa’s deep affection for Mr. York and did not want to linger on this topic lest Elisa felt upset. Thus, she quickly changed the subject.As they chatted, Elisa talked about what she was up to now. She said, “My brother was worried that I’d think of Mr. York when I’m bored and

Nana dragged her luggage and walked straight to the sofa. She sat down and said, “Zachary, I want to move in with you and Seren.”Zachary’s face stiffened. “Nana, you promised me—”“I’m not stirring trouble, so what are you so nervous for? What are you worried about?” Nana rebutted. Following that, sh
