Married at First Sight Chapter 3392
“What about us ordinary people, Grandma May? If Zachary and the rest are considered mediocre, we’re probably bottom feeders.”Clive smiled and joked around. Remy nodded in agreement. Grandma May laughed aloud. Her nine grandsons were her greatest pride. After a few more years, her grandsons would have formed their own families. Even if she died, she could leave with a smile on her face. Patrick looked toward Sonny again. Sonny was in Serenity’s arms, looking at everyone curiously. He did not understand what the elders were saying. “He does look a lot like her,” Patrick murmured to himself. “He looks a lot like Ms. Lisa when she was young. If he had his hair in braids and wore a dress, he would look exactly like her.”Patrick was lost in reminiscence while staring at Sonny. Back then, Lisa used to ask him to lift her whenever she saw him. “Uncle True, upsy-daisy.”He could never refuse her request. Patrick would lift her high and spin her around before putting her

Grandma May smiled. “Sonny is indeed a good boy, but he can also be very naughty sometimes.“If he’s quiet, it means he’s causing trouble somewhere.”Serenity chimed in. “There was once when he was playing quietly on his own. I went looking for him, and it turned out he was playing with my skincare and makeup. My lipstick was smeared all over the table and floor.“He even smeared it all over his face. I was totally speechless.”Everyone burst into laughter as they imagined the scene. Sonny was embarrassed by everyone laughing at him. He buried his face in Patrick’s chest and said, “Aunt Ser is laughing at me, Great-grandpa True.”Patrick was swooning over how Sonny was addressing him. He immediately got protective and told Serenity, “Stop laughing at him, Serenity. That’s just how kids are when they’re young. Your mom used to be naughty when she was young too.“She would spill the expensive alcohol Madam Tiara had collected and even smash the bottles. She also took a pair of sc

The Hunts had hurt the sisters too much. Before Patrick made his visit, he already knew what Madam Tiara’s daughters had experienced. His heart ached for Lisa, and he resented the Hunt family.He also supported Serenity and Liberty in fighting for the house Scott and Lisa had left for them.The house belonged to them. Built by their parents, the house held the memories of their childhood happiness. They would always recall times with their parents whenever they returned to that house. Those were the memories the sisters wanted to protect. Therefore, the house could not be taken away.The Hunt family had wronged Serenity and Liberty. Not only did they become rich with the compensation they received for Lisa and Scott’s passings, but they also chased them out of the house and forcefully occupied it. Before Liberty and Serenity came of age, the Hunts tried to guilt-trip them into paying Old Mrs. Hunt’s hospital bills. Oppressing the Hunts and pushing them into a corner was me

When the fight for the house was ongoing, the Howdens gave up on Lisa’s inheritance and passed it all to Liberty and Serenity. After that, Serenity sent some gifts over to the Howdens. That was the last of their interaction. Lisa had lost a lot of memories, probably from being transferred from family to family countless times when she was young. It could have been selective amnesia.Serenity and Liberty were mature enough to stop asking their mother about her past after she had refused several times to recall or talk about it. However, Serenity had always been curious about her mother’s younger days. Before Lisa was three or four years old, she was a happy kid. Patrick jogged his memory. He said, “Ms. Lisa was honey-tongued. She looked adorable. Sonny is like a replica of the young Ms. Lisa. Everyone loved her.“Although she was a troublemaker, everyone couldn’t bear to scold her because it was a child’s nature. On the other hand, Ms. Audrey wasn’t as eloquent. Ms. Lisa tru

Sugar tacitly understood Silver’s nudge. She whispered, “I’m not your only student. You have students who are older than me. Why don’t you urge them instead? I want to be an aunt too.”Silver replied, “If Old Mrs. York introduces a guy to you, you should check him out. She has a sharp eye that can choose outstanding granddaughters-in-law and even men.“The York family is strict about loyalty in marriage. If she introduces you to a boyfriend, he’s most likely dedicated to a relationship.“Date for a year and get married. Then have children two years into your marriage. That way, you can still spend some time alone with your husband. If you have children, I can help you to take care of them. I’m really jealous of Old Pat now. Although Sonny isn’t related to him, he’s a descendant of his matriarch.“Sonny calls him great-grandpa. Old Pat has become a grandpa and a great-grandpa. I’m so envious.”Sugar said, “If we’re speaking of age, Sonny can also address you as his great-grandpa.

Silver gave in to Sugar. It was lively as many people were gathered for the meal. The atmosphere was great, and everyone’s appetite grew as well. Even Patrick ate half a steak, and a bowl of soup, with some sides. He also had some fruits to finish off.The elders told Audrey, “Old Pat doesn’t usually eat much, Audrey. He would take a bit of noodles, half a bowl of soup, and some vegetables. He doesn’t even eat fruits afterward.”Audrey looked toward Patrick and said, “You should eat more, Uncle True. More nutrients would do you good.”People his age were supposed to eat whatever they wanted without restraint. Food lovers would say that everyone was born to taste all the delicacies in the world. Patrick smiled. “I’ll have to go for a walk to digest my food if I overeat. Now that I’m old, my stamina has worsened, and I don’t really like moving around much. However, I know I must do it to maintain my physical fitness.“That’s why I usually walk around in the garden for half

Grandma May smiled. “Sure.”“I’m not talking to you anymore. I’ll go out for a walk. Do you want to come with me, girls?”Sugar stood and asked Serenity, Camryn, and Elisa.The three of them got up as well. Sugar was a guest, while Elisa was the host. If the guest wanted to walk around, then it was only proper that the host accompanied.Hence, the four ladies escaped. Sonny had wanted to follow his Aunt Ser. However, he remembered he had to accompany Patrick and had no choice but to watch as Aunt Ser left.Luckily, Uncle Zak was still with him.Aunt Ser would definitely return as long as Uncle Zak was around.The other young masters of the Yorks left after some time. They still had matters to attend to. More importantly, they were still single and feared the elders would mention them in their conversation.Anthony also found an excuse to sneak away. He was the only one among the three Stone siblings without a partner. Not only were his parents keeping an eye on him, but e

Grandma May glared at Dylan and said, “Can’t I ask you for a simple request anymore?”He looked toward the other adults. They did not utter a word. It seemed like they did not mind Grandma May making decisions on her own. Under his nana’s glare, he had no choice but to sit and say, “Of course, you can. I’ll wait for Ms. Sugar here and take her to the hotel later.”Dylan could not believe that she was pushing any young woman she saw to him. While Sugar was dressed plainly, she looked elegant. She probably came from a wealthy family.Was his nana playing matchmaker despite only meeting Sugar for the first time and not knowing anything about her background?Grandma May knew that he was in love with Chameleon Fox. How could he like Sugar when he even rejected Imogen?Sugar’s and Imogen’s personalities were complete opposites. Sugar was more energetic, but she still could not compare to his Chameleon Fox. ‘Ah, my little fox. Am I that terrible of a man that you don’t even want

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
