Married at First Sight

Zachary believed he was quite charming, and it wasn't just his imagination-it was true.

Serenity glanced at him and smiled. "Yes, yes, all of your brothers are very charming. But what's most attractive is your family tradition. The men in your family are devoted to their wives and loyal to their feelings."

A good family tradition, a good man, and a loyal relationship were rare and desirable. Any family with a marriageable daughter hoped she could marry into the York family-not for their wealth, but for the loyalty of their men. "Where's Sonny?" Serenity asked.

"He's off having a wild time with Rowan," Zachary replied. "I'm not sure if they're in the villa or down by the mountain, but Rowan's watching him, so you don't need to worry."

"I'm not worried about him. There are always so many people looking after him here," Serenity sighed. "It's his father who frustrates me. Hank keeps saying things to Sonny that make him think my sister doesn't love him anymore or that Brother Duncan won't like him. He even tells Sonny that if my sister has another child, she won't want him. I wanted to yell at him in the car, but I had to hold it back because of Sonny. It was so infuriating.'

She took a deep breath and continued, relieved, "Thankfully, my sister divorced Hank."

Zachary was quiet for a moment before responding, "He's just bitter that your sister's doing better without him. If she wasn't happy, he'd act differently."

Revenge on a cheating husband, Serenity thought, was simply living a better life than him.

"You're right," she agreed. "He and his family are all just jealous." She smiled again and looked at Zachary "But my husband is the best. A good family tradition makes a good man. Thank you for marrying me without hesitation. Without you, my sister and I wouldn't have been able to change our lives."

Zachary spoke tenderly, "This is mutual, my love. We were destined to be together, even in our past lives. In this life, we'll love each other for the rest of our days. Meeting you and falling in love with you is my greatest blessing. Without you, I'm not sure I would've gotten married."

"You're so exceptional, you could get married whenever you wanted," Serenity said.

"Maybe," Zachary replied

thoughtfully, "but marrying without love is easy. The challenge is finding someone you truly love, someone

you can cherish, trust, and spend et

your life with. Thinking back on our whirlwind marriage, if it had been anyone else, I wouldn't have been interested. Maybe I would've divorced after my grandmother passed away. But because it was you, I was drawn in. And now, we're in this for life." NôvelDrama.Org copyrighted © content.

"Husband," Serenity said, smiling, "you're getting so good at saying sweet things. It's like drinking honey."

Zachary chuckled. "I'm just speaking from the heart, not trying to fool you."

"I know," she replied. "I'm not accusing you of lying." Serenity affectionately took his arm.

As they made their way down the stairs, they saw the old lady sitting on the sofa in the hall. Julian and Kiera were seated across from her, and Tania was by her side. The group was chatting cheerfully.

The old lady clearly liked Kiera. Knowing that Kiera was Julian's destined partner, she had accepted her. However, given the close ties between the York and Bucham families, Kiera was expected to call her "Grandma York," as she would soon be part of the extended family.

Hearing the footsteps on the stairs, the group looked up to see Zachary and Serenity descending. The old lady and Tania's smiles grew even brighter.
