Married at First Sight novel (Serenity and Zachary York)

Chapter 1308
Serenity once again sighed at her fortune. Although the man she married liked to throw tantrums, he was very good to her. He
never raised his hand against her, and she did not have to worry about him cheating on her.
More importantly, his family was great. Having open-minded and tolerant in -laws like the Yorks was rare among wealthy and
influential families.
She remembered Grandma May saying that since Serenity saved her life, she would never introduce a bad grandson to Serenity.
In fact, all of her grandsons were exceptional.
Zachary was just the oldest and thought to be the most exceptional by his elders.
"Mrs. Lewis already helped pick a wife candidate for Mr. Lewis. Her name is Ms. Lily Harmon. She's young and beautiful, but she
also seems to be smart and competent. I could tell at a glance that she was an experienced person. The self-confidence and
nobility that emanates from her gestures show that she came from a wealthy background. Furthermore, she must be good if she
could earn Mrs. Lewis's favor.”
"I know."
Zachary said while eating, "It's because Mrs. Lewis tried to forcefully matchmake Duncan several times that he was shameless
enough to stay in our house."
He did not know what the woman's name was.
There was no need for him to know.
She was not his wife candidate.
All he needed to know was his Serenity.
"It’s still Ms. Harmon? I thought it would be someone else.
"Mrs. Lewis has high standards. Although she's anxious about Duncan's marriage, she’ll never allow him to marry below his
social status. She picks her daughter-in-law like she's a queen choosing a consort for the prince. There are not many noble
ladies in Wiltspoon who caught her eye."

The families that Mrs. Lewis had her eye on did not have daughters suitable for marriage.
As for families that did have marriageable daughters, Mrs. Lewis did not take a fancy to them.
The Lewises were one of the top-ranking giants in Wiltspoon. Duncan was capable on his own and was worth tens of billions.
When his father passed and the family assets were divided, Duncan's fortune would continue to grow even if he did not take a
single penny from the inheritance.
Thus, Mrs. Lewis was naturally very demanding in choosing a wife for him.
Zachary thought of how the York family had no daughters. If he had a sister, she would surely be Mrs. Lewis's number-one pick.
"Liberty said that Mrs. Lewis passed by one day and visited the store for a chat. She let Liberty see Ms. Harmon's picture. Babe,
I think Mrs. Lewis did it on purpose. She wanted my sister to back off."
Without further thought, he said, "She definitely did it on purpose. An arrogant person like Mrs. Lewis wouldn’t approach your
sister and make small talk even if she was just passing by."
When Audrey hosted a banquet for her two nieces, Mrs. Lewis did not pay much attention to Liberty that night. The two did not
meet again after that banquet.
Why would Mrs. Lewis go in and chat with Liberty just because she was passing by?
"Will Mrs. Lewis wreck my sister's store? Will she toss out a check of five million, then tell my sister to leave with the money and
never come back to see Mr. Lewis?"
Zachary, who was drinking milk, instantly choked when he heard Serenity. He coughed furiously and quickly put down the glass
of milk.
Serenity tried to pat his back, but he raised his hand to stop her.
He quickly stopped coughing and said with a smile, "Seren, you think too much. Clichés like that only happen in novels, not in
real life.
"If we didn't exist and your sister was really trying to pursue Duncan, then Mrs. Lewis would get someone to smash her store.
Then, she'll forcefully drive your sister away, but she won't give her a single penny."

Zachary continued, "But Mrs. Lewis won't do that because we're around. I'm good friends with Duncan, and you're my wife as
well as the missus of the York family. No matter how displeased Mrs. Lewis is, there's nothing she can do. Besides, you guys
have your aunt too.
"Even if Liberty likes Duncan, Mrs. Lewis would at most go straight to your sister to talk to her. She'll tell your sister directly that
she won't accept a daughter-in-law like her.”
