Chapter 971

Author: Gu Lingfei
The possibility of Liberty and Duncan being together was rather slim.

It had never been Liberty’s wish to marry into a wealthy family. The sisters were not ones with wishful ambitions.

Grandma May gave up on the idea.

After leaving Liberty’s restaurant, Duncan returned to Lewis & Co. and walked into the office to lie on the sofa. He pulled out his phone and gave Zachary a text message.

It was quiet during lunchtime in the office.

Duncan: [Can I bother you?]

Zachary was having the sleep of his life since he managed to convince his wife to stay at the office for a nap. Duncan’s untimely message woke him up.

He would probably travel through the radio wave to give Duncan a beating if the guy was not his best friend.

Serenity was still asleep. Zachary gave her a peck on the lips before grabbing his phone. He tiptoed out of the private resting room and approached a sofa to lie down like Duncan was.

“What do you want?”

Duncan’s mind was still blank by the time his best fri

  • Married at First Sight   Chapter 4819

    “You’re this happy that your patient is being discharged? Was he a difficult one?” Ivor asked his sister with concern.“He wasn’t difficult. It’s just that his injury wasn’t serious. Actually, he could have been discharged after two days of observation in the hospital. But he insisted on staying longer, up to one or two months, even.”“Why?”“He said he wanted a proper rest. He mentioned that once he’s discharged, a mountain of work would be waiting for him, leaving him no time to rest properly.“By staying in the hospital, everyone would know he’s injured and won’t bother him with work matters.“Oh, right. He’s the eighth young master of the York family.”Ivor noticed that when his sister mentioned Alex, her expression was relaxed and carried a smile. His eyes flickered, and a thought flashed through his mind.“The eighth young master of the York family? How do you know that?”“The chief told me. He’s an old classmate of Dad’s, so he wouldn’t lie to me. Interacting with him al

    Ivor did not think highly of Kent.After learning about Kent’s family situation, he was even more opposed to his sister being with him.Their parents were concerned about their daughter’s future, but they had also said not to settle—to keep their eyes wide open, to see the other person’s character clearly, and not to compromise just because she was getting older and feeling anxious.Marriage was a decision that would affect the rest of her life, so there was no room for settling.“Ivor, does Sheila have someone she likes already?“Wait, I know there’s a classmate of hers who also likes her a lot. Did she accept him?” Kent asked anxiously.Had he not been vigilant enough, despite watching for two years?Did someone else snatch Sheila away before he could?That should not be the case. If someone else was pursuing Sheila, there was no way the Joneses did not know. Plus, he came here so often, so he could not possibly not know either.“Sheila said she doesn’t want a doctor as a pa

    Kent always used the pretext of asking her uncle for advice.Before Kent confessed his feelings to her, Sheila could not really say anything about it.Her only option was to avoid him.“When I was with him before, it was not because he was handsome. I’m not that shallow. I value character more. Unfortunately, it was my first relationship, so I judged wrongly.”Sheila admitted she had misjudged him.She never expected Huey to be that kind of person.They had broken up now, and their relationship was over. She did not want to discuss Huey anymore.If they were talking about looks, the young masters of the York family were far more handsome.Sheila had met quite a few of those gentlemen. Apart from those not in Wiltspoon, she had seen them all. They were truly outstanding, every one of them like gods among men.The York family’s old matriarch really knew how to raise her grandchildren.For some reason, Alex’s handsome face flashed through Sheila’s mind.Alex had excellent manne

    Sheila knew what she wanted.“Sheila, how can you know we can’t develop feelings for each other if we haven’t even tried? Feelings can be nurtured over time.“You have to give it a chance to see if we’re compatible.”Kent was not ready to give up, and he would not give up easily.After spending two years trying to build a rapport with them at the Joneses’ clinic, how could he just walk away?Given his social status and position, the best match he could hope for was someone like Sheila.Kent would not give up unless Sheila married someone else. He would keep pursuing her.His mother had told him that even the most contrary woman could be worn down by persistent pursuit. If he kept at it diligently, he could gradually win Sheila’s heart.He had shown photos of Sheila to his parents and family, and they were all very pleased.His parents said Sheila looked like a blessed person, with a healthy appearance, who would bring good luck to her husband.If he married Sheila, her auspic

    “Yup! When did you get back?” Sheila was overjoyed to see her brother. She walked over and gave him a hug. “I’ve missed you so much, Ivor.”Ivor smiled and let his sister hug him for a moment before gently pushing her away. “Alright, you’re all grown up now, but you’re still acting like a child. I’m seeing a patient here.”“No matter how old I get, you’ll always be my big brother. Who would dare laugh at me for acting spoiled with my own brother?”Ivor’s patient chuckled.Sheila stayed silent in embarrassment.The patient said with a smile, “Dr. Jones, I’m just envious of how close you siblings are.”“Of course! My brother and I are very close. He’s always taken good care of me. When we were kids and our parents were often on duty and too busy to look after me, it was my brother who took care of me.”There was a four-year age gap between the siblings.When they were young, her brother was like a little adult, making sure she ate and went to bed.When she missed their mother, h

    Alex listened to Stanley’s words, knowing they were the truth.When Sheila first saw him, she had been momentarily stunned by his appearance. Okay, it felt a bit strange for a man to be looked at with that kind of admiring gaze, but after that, she truly treated him no differently from anyone else without any special consideration.She even seemed eager for him to be discharged.Probably, in her eyes, his staying in the hospital for such a minor injury was simply taking up a hospital bed, especially since beds in major hospitals were always in high demand.Sheila had been in a relationship before.She and her first love had been together for two or three years. Naturally, there were feelings involved.However, after he “made it” and had climbed the social ladder, he felt that Sheila could not help pave his way to success, and so he broke up with her.When Alex had asked someone to look into Sheila’s family background, he learned about her past relationship. He had even seen phot
