Married at First Sight Chapter 2908
Martin chimed in, “Your mum has me to pick her up. You don’t need to.”“Alright, alright. We’ll each bring our own wives home.”Once Camryn and Rosella were done with the dinner, Callum would take Camryn home and stay far away from his mother to avoid her hogging his wife all to herself.He and his wife had just gotten married and were still in their honeymoon phase. He could not bear being apart from her even for a second and wished he could be with his wife 24/7.Even his secretary had pointed out that after he married, the amount of networking dinners he went for had lessened greatly.Of course, married men should put their families first and go straight home after work to spend time with their wives.Zachary too had stopped going out to network at night as much.“Come here, Camryn. I’ll help you put on the jewelry. Let me see if I was right.”Rosella could not be bothered with those two overly doting men and picked up the necklace to put it on Camryn.Camryn said, “Mom, yo
Married at First Sight Chapter 2909
Camryn laughed as sweetness filled her heart. She thought to herself that she was really, very lucky.Before meeting Callum, luck had never been on her side. With a biological mother like Paige, she was hurt the most deeply by her.Fortunately, Callum’s love and her in-laws’ doting, as well as the rest of the York family’s care for her had healed her.She had also avenged her father and retrieved everything that belonged to her.Now, all she had to do was to take care of her health and after a few years, have a kid, and then her life would be complete.In the end, Camryn accepted the vintage set of jewelry from her mother-in-law. If she continued trying to refuse it, her in-laws and her husband would take turns trying to persuade her.She knew Rosella and her aunts-in-law had lots of jewelry. As they did not have daughters, their jewelry was to be passed on to their daughters-in-law. Grandma May had quite a stash too, despite having distributed some once before when her daughters

“Alright, stop pouting. People who don’t know what happened would assume I wronged you or something.”Camryn wrapped her arms around Callum’s neck and kissed him.His wife was taking the initiative to kiss him, so of course, Callum would not be reserved about it. He hugged her soft body tightly and they kissed for a while before he let her go.When his gaze fell on the jewelry she was wearing, he said sourly, “You rarely wear the jewelry I give you but you haven’t taken off the jewelry Mom gave you since you put it on. My mom’s jewelry is all amazing. My gifts can’t compare to hers.”Camryn pinched his cheeks, amused. “That’s your mother—your biological mother—who gave me jewelry, and you’re still jealous? I was going to refuse it earlier but you told me to accept it. Now, you’re being such a sourpuss. What do you want me to do?”Callum scowled and stayed silent.He just was jealous.He felt like anyone could take his place in his wife’s eyes.“Or should I take it off right now

“Well, since you thought about it, I’d have to grant your wish. Don’t worry. I won’t wear you out in bed.”However, he would bathe with her. Camryn was speechless. What a cunning man. “I’ll get your clothes and run the bath, honey.”Callum walked out of the bedroom after speaking. Despite what he said, he did not wear Camryn out that night. It was already late at night, and they had to wake up early to return to the city for work the next day. He was worried she would be exhausted. In another villa, Carrie, disguised as Mrs. Longbottom, was on her phone while lying on her luxurious bed. After cutting her two aunts off and getting angered by Camryn, she no longer wanted to stay in her rented house. She terminated her tenancy. Being Mrs. Longbottom was way more comfortable. Carrie could enjoy the best of everything.It was the kind of life she deserved. Suddenly, someone opened the door to her room. Carrie was startled and thought it was a burglar. Her two bodyguar

Paige forbade Carrie from smoking too. While she usually let Carrie do whatever she wanted, smoking was strictly banned because she hated the smell of it. If Cain smoked, Paige would make him spend the night in the study. Paige also told Carrie that she was to become the York family’s missus in the future. If she liked to smoke, it could be disadvantageous to her plan to marry into the family as the Yorks might not like it. In the end, Carrie neither smoked nor married into the York family. She had become a middle-aged man’s mistress instead. It was all because of Camryn and Serenity. Carrie would grit her teeth in anger whenever she was reminded of her situation. “You can learn how to smoke. It can help when you’re in a bad mood or feeling depressed.”Mr. Longbottom passed her a cigarette and lit it for her. Carrie took two drags before she started coughing heavily. Mr. Longbottom laughed and said, “You’ll get used to it. Learning how to smoke is easy, but quitting is

Seeing Carrie’s pale face looking at him in horror, Mr. Longbottom laughed. He asked, “Were you scared?”Carrie nodded. She was frightened. Mr. Longbottom extended his hand again. Carrie looked at it, startled, but she dared not avoid it. However, he was not going to strangle her again. He simply caressed her face with a heartbroken expression, “Look at your face. It’s as pale as a sheet. My bad. I didn’t mean to scare you like that.“You just have to do my bidding, babe. I won’t kill you. I’ve taken a liking to you. You’re young, vibrant, and beautiful.”Carrie’s expression still looked terrible. Although Mr. Longbottom’s tone was gentle, she remained afraid of him. She knew he was a demon who would not even bat an eyelid when he committed murder. “Mr. Longbottom.”Carrie stuttered. “I’ll do my best and complete the mission you gave me. Serenity didn’t recognize me when I appeared before her with my new face. It gave me a lot of confidence.“I’ll try to overcome my fear o

Aware of his brutality, his lovers became more tactful. They were fine with him giving them money. They never dreamed of replacing his wife or having his child to get a portion of his inheritance. They would probably end up dead if that happened. However, Mr. Longbottom still had illegitimate children. Aside from the three sons and a daughter he had with his wife, he still had a son and a daughter—children he shared with two especially obedient lovers of his. He liked them a lot. Aside from being obedient, the ladies had done a lot for him and played a role in an important incident that occurred several years ago. Therefore, he allowed them to carry his child. Having a child meant they would have someone to rely on in the future. His wife was not capable of preventing all of his lovers from having children. It was all up to his will. If he wished to give his lovers a child, the child would be born without a hitch. Otherwise, Mrs. Longbottom would order her people to beat up his

The night passed peacefully. The next morning, Camryn snuggled up to Callum as she felt the cold before she was fully awake. Mornings at the manor were colder than those in the city. In addition, they did not close the windows but simply had the thick curtains down. That was why Camryn found it cold once the chilly morning air drifted into the room. It was also raining outside. The rain had lowered the temperature and announced the arrival of winter. After a week of chilly days, the temperature had increased. It had been hot days with the sun shining brightly as it did in summer. Wiltspoonians only had to add another layer of clothing during early mornings and late nights. However, the rain turned the weather cold again. Callum brought Camryn closer to him and tugged on the blanket without opening his eyes. He only woke up a few minutes later due to the sound of the rain. No wonder he felt the cold. Callum pecked Camryn’s cheek before getting up stealthily. He wen

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
