Married at First Sight Chapter 3017
“Honey, I want you to wear the jewelry I gave you tonight.”“Doesn’t matter whose gift I wear tonight, as long as I’m wearing the diamond ring you gave me.”Callum pecked Camryn on the lips. “Alright, I’ll let Mom have this round.”Camryn pinched Callum’s cheek in amusement.“Oh, right. That Mrs. Longbottom you and Serenity mentioned before will be attending the dinner tonight too,” Callum suddenly said.At the mention of the young woman who sounded and looked like Carrie figure-wise, Camryn lost her smile.She said calmly, “It’ll be a good time to observe her carefully then. She’ll slip up at some point if it’s a facade.”“I got someone to look into it when I was free. She really is Mrs. Longbottom. Her husband really is a Longbottom.”“Hmm.”Camryn only suspected that Mrs. Longbottom was Carrie and had no evidence to prove it.If Mrs. Longbottom and Carrie were one and the same, then there was a scheme in the works, which also meant that there had to be a schemer manipulati

Austin said to Grandma May, “Didn’t you say you wanted me to spend time with you, Nana?“But the moment we got back, before you’ve even taken a sip of water, you’re already planning to meet up with your old friends and play cards.”Serenity said, “Nana, it’s not easy for the old ladies to save up. You shouldn’t make them lose all their savings to you every time you come back.”Grandma May chortled. “I don’t take their money. Whoever loses gets one stroke drawn on their face to see who gets to become a Sharpie cat in the end.”Everyone was speechless at this.They could not understand the world of these old kids.All they could do was let them be.Soon, Josh and Jasmine arrived too, followed by Josh’s parents.This made the place even more lively.When Grandma May spotted Josh’s father, Wyatt Bucham, she asked, “Hey, Threebie. Has your oldest brother not come back from visiting his in-laws yet?”Wyatt was the third oldest among his cousins.Grandma May had always called him T

“Where are you going, Grandma May?” Josh asked when he saw that she was leaving.“I’ve been away for so long and only just returned, so I want to meet up with my old friends to catch up with all the gossip and play some cards.”She never put on the airs of a rich madam, so she got on particularly well with the employees’ mothers who lived at the foot of the hill.Those old ladies loved gossiping with Grandma May too.“You guys chat! I’m heading out. There’s no need to call me back once you guys start the barbecue party, just get someone to send me and my friends some of the food and I’ll eat with them. There’d better be some steak!”Serenity said, “Nana, you’re getting on in years. You should cut down on red meat.”“Oh, alright. I’ll listen to you. If you tell me not to eat it, I won’t then,” Nana conceded.“When I tell Nana not to eat red meat, she scolds me, but when Seren does it, Nana agrees right away,” Zachary grumbled.Grandma May was a typical example of someone who shu

Rosella only yelled that one sentence before quickly winding the window back up and telling the driver to continue driving.“That old kid really is like a kid,” Rosella muttered.Camryn giggled. “As long as Nana’s happy.”“Oh, she’s very happy every day. She always says that life is short, and this trip to earth is only worth it if we live life happily every day.”Rosella was deeply appreciative of her mother-in-law’s attitude towards life.Her decision to marry into the York family was due to a combination of factors—the strength of her and her husband’s feelings for each other, her in-laws’ characters, as well as the family’s culture that gave her zero reservations about joining the family.Time had proven that she had not married the wrong person.It had been a few decades since she married and she had not suffered a single grievance since. Her in-laws treated their daughters-in-law better than they even treated their sons.They did not even have to worry about their childre

“Thank you, Mrs. House.” Camryn said. Ginny told Rosella, “Your daughter-in-law has a lovely voice. Listening to her soothes me.”“You and your sisters-in-law must be happy to have daughters-in-law already. Meanwhile, I don’t even have a daughter- or son-in-law.”Ginny looked toward her daughter and two sons when she spoke. Her younger son was only in his early twenties, so he could be excused. However, her elder son and daughter were already of marriageable age, yet they had not gotten married yet.Ginny’s daughter, Tasha, was one of Elisa’s best friends. Ginny was an expert in socializing. She did not only get along with Audrey Stone, but she was also close to the York missuses and had never offended any party. Tasha used to be in a relationship while hiding her identity. In the end, her boyfriend left her for another woman for the money. Little did he know, Tasha, whom he had abandoned, was his golden ticket to becoming rich. After the breakup, Elisa often hung out wi

Camryn had learned how to build a wall around her; rumors could not hurt her at all. Her aunts and Carrie had tried various ways to ruin her reputation by going to the York family, yet all their attempts had failed. The only person she cared about, Callum, had chosen to trust her and stay by her side unconditionally. There was nothing that could hurt her anymore. “That’s right. Ignore what others say. Many people used to badmouth Elisa too. They kept criticizing her.“Didn’t you think Elisa was nice after getting to know her? That’s why it’s better not to care about other people’s opinions. They’re just jealous.”Camryn replied, “Yes. They’re just jealous. Elisa was hit the worst out of all of us.”Luckily, Elisa had always had a positive attitude. She continued doing things her way despite the rumors about her. It was obvious that those people were just envious of her courage to pursue Zachary. Zachary was the man of countless women’s dreams when he was single. However, n

Tasha told Camryn apologetically, “I’ll get someone to take you inside. I need to greet Mrs. Longbottom.”Camryn looked forward. Rosella and the rest had already entered the lavish manor with Ginny. She did not know anyone around her, so she said, “Do you mind if I follow you to meet Mrs. Longbottom, Tasha?“I don’t know many people here,” she added. Tasha smiled. “Okay. Let’s go and have a look at what Mrs. Longbottom looks like. I’ve never heard of her.”She did not know anyone with the last name Longbottom among Wiltspoon’s elites. Even the other ladies had not heard of that name. Tasha was curious. “I’ve met her once, but I’m not sure if she’s the same person as the Mrs. Longbottom who’s here tonight.”Tasha was guiding Camryn by holding her hand. She was surprised when she heard Camryn’s words, “You’ve seen her before?”“Yes. I saw Mrs. Longbottom in Serenity’s bookstore a few days ago. She seems to be in her twenties. She looked beautiful and rich. She was looking for

Birth rates started falling as fewer marriages took place. Even newly introduced government policies were unable to incentivize the younger generation to marry and have children. Camryn and Tasha soon arrived at the manor’s entrance while chatting. As most guests were arriving at that hour, the Houses’ outdoor parking lot could not fit that many cars. The employees were directing the guests to park outside the manor or by the roadside, which already had a long row of cars parked. “Ms. Tasha.”One of the maids called Tasha the moment she walked out. Tasha first greeted the guests who had just arrived and got someone to guide them into the manor. After looking around, she could not spot Mrs. Longbottom. She asked, “Where’s Mrs. Longbottom?”“She’s still in her car. It was just parked.”The maid pointed at a luxury car not too far away. In the car, Carrie had spotted Camryn and Tasha. She used to attend banquets often with her mother and had met Tasha several times. How

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

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
