Married at First Sight Chapter 5404
“Go check it out. Make sure those hounds don’t spot you. Throw those beasts the roasted chicken laced with rat poison. Once they’re down, it’ll save us a lot of trouble.”Without those hounds barking, their chances of quietly slipping inside would be much higher.“Yes, sir.”A few men in black acknowledged in a low voice, took the poisoned roasted chickens, and crept stealthily toward the main gates of the estate.In Havenmill, Laurence was not the only one with an estate. There were quite a few wealthy tycoons with deep roots spanning generations who also lived in massive estates. Even the Longbottoms owned a manor of their own.Usually, those estates had security booths at the main gates, staffed with plenty of security guards working twenty-four-hour shifts to ensure the main entrance was constantly watched. That was always the first line of defense for an estate’s security.Laurence’s estate, however, did not have a security booth. Instead, there was just an archway over a se

Who would not wish to be the true head of the family?The true head of the Longbottoms was recognized by the sacred heirlooms, and every single piece of it was essential. If one piece were missing, ascending to the position of the true head of the family was out of the question.Since they were so incredibly important, Manny naturally insisted on stealing them or, as he preferred to see it, reclaiming them personally.After all, those items rightfully belonged to his branch of the family. He and Tony had collectively served as the acting heads for thirty long years.They knew the family’s internal affairs inside and out, were familiar with all the business operations, and the vast majority of the other family branches lived comfortably under their rule. Only a handful of stubborn troublemakers were constantly nitpicking and finding fault, and that was solely because those particular relatives had not managed to line their own pockets.Manny would never admit that he had been squ

Tony paused for a moment before adding, “We might not be able to get the legendary thief’s help, but your suggestion still has some merit. We can look into other highly skilled thieves on the market and hire them instead.”Both Tony and Manny knew deep down that even though the fearless assassins they trained were capable, tearing the family heirlooms away from Laurence would be no easy feat.In fact, the hired killers in the underworld were growing increasingly reluctant to take their contracts. Every time they accepted a job from the Longbottom family, they had suffered devastating losses. After it happened one too many times, the syndicate bosses started turning them down.They would only cooperate with the Longbottoms if the target was not Laurence.Tony had spent a fortune to hire these men to raid Laurence’s estate for two reasons. Firstly, to preserve his own strength, and secondly, to make Laurence an enemy of the syndicate bosses so they would destroy Laurence for him.Ho

“Because we made a move, caused such a massive scene, and suffered a loss, they’ll surely assume that we’re lying low to recover. They won’t expect us to act again so soon, which means they will lower their guard. That is exactly when we proceed according to our original plan.“However, let’s modify it slightly. We only steal the family token, and we don’t hurt anyone.” Besides, hurting them would be next to impossible anyway.Tony finally understood why Laurence was so incredibly powerful now. As it turned out, he was Lilian’s sole apprentice.When Jane had mentioned before that someone had taken an interest in Laurence, she meant that Lilian had recognized his potential. That was why Jane had sent her adopted son to Lilian to learn both medicine and self-defense.Not only was Lilian a master of poisons, but her combat skills were unfathomable. According to the bodyguards from last night, her strikes were incredibly fast, precise, and ruthless. They were beaten to a pulp before

Noelle walked out of Laurence’s study. When the door slipped shut, she stood outside for a bit before heading downstairs. Jane and Lilian had finished their supper. Jane was cleaning the dishes in the kitchen while Lilian stayed at the dining table. The two ladies seemed to be chatting. Picking up on Noelle’s footsteps, Lilian stopped talking. Noelle wanted to do the dishes for Jane, but Jane was done with the task. “Mom, just leave the dishes to me next time.” Jane replied, “I’m not helpless. I’ll keep going while I still can. I don’t need to leave the chores to you, especially since you’re already busy every day. You need to relax at home and stop sweating the small stuff.“Lilian and I aren’t princesses. It won’t kill us to do the dishes. Stop acting as if you let us down.” After putting away the dishes and cleaning her hands, Jane gave Noelle a squeeze on the cheek. “Lilian is right. I can’t get a good pinch like before. You need to start caring for your skin better.

Laurence grimaced. He glared at Noelle. Any idiot could see how he felt about her. Noelle, perceptive about everything else as she was, would not be oblivious. Yet, Noelle had to name Callia as the woman he loved. It was true that he adored Callia, but it was familial. He cared for Callia as a brother would. Callia was a lot younger than he was. In some ways, Laurence practically raised her. With Laurence’s expression turning sour, Noelle smiled embarrassedly. “Sir, i-it was just an assumption. The only young girls around you are Chloe and Callie.”“Thank goodness the Yorks aren’t here to hear that, or else I’d never be able to set foot in Wildridge Manor. They’d treat me like a predator.” Caught between laughter and tears, Laurence said, “Chloe and Callie are just family to me. There’s nothing romantic between us. Can’t you tell? “Stop talking nonsense. Chloe has Devon, and Callie has Xavier. I’m in no business to break them up.” Noelle smiled awkwardly, not divul

“Why are you here, Zachary?” asked Elisa, baffled. There was no reason for a man of Zachary’s status to be here. However, it was Zachary in the flesh. Unable to believe her eyes, Elisa blinked a few times before taking a closer look at the man. Sure enough, it was the Zachary she knew. Elisa’s eyes

Serenity said, “Okay. We’ll do as the doctor said. We’ll keep him in the hospital for a few days until he’s well enough to be discharged. His work… His salary…” With Zachary in the hospital, Serenity was hoping to get him to rest for a few days. His boss owned the company. The company was not Zachar

After listening to a day of gossip about Mr. York’s marriage and wife-doting tendencies, Serenity applied a facial mask in front of the dressing table at night and said to Zachary, “All I hear is stories about your boss today.” With his game face on, Zachary asked, “Oh. What about?” “You don’t know?
