Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 102

Chapter 102

The despair, anger, sadness, and helplessness did not go amiss between the lines. Tears filled Serenity‘s eyes as she flipped through her sister‘s diary while accounts of the past flooded her mind.

Dad‘s side of the family and Mom‘s side of the family were ripping each other apart over the insurance money. All of them were trying to get a bigger cut. No one cared about Serenity and me. No one talked about adopting us and taking care of us. Mom and Dad were dead, but all they could think about was money. What about our feelings? Is this what they call a family?

Mom, Dad, come home. Do you know what your daughters are going through now? How could you leave me and Serenity behind?

It was raining. Was God feeling sorry because my sister and I lost our parents? We didn‘t have a mom and dad anymore. I cried for Mom and Dad, but they could no longer hear me. I looked at Serenity‘s clueless face and cried. She cried too.

Serenity had been asking me when Mom and Dad were coming home. She missed them.

I held my sister and cried. I told her that Mom and Dad were never returning. They went to Heaven and

abandoned us. We have become orphans, children without a mom and dad…]

(To get more money, Granddad and Grandmom said that we won‘t owe them anything if we agree to give them six hundred thousand dollars. I mean, they have other children who can help with their retirement.

All they want is money, money, money. Money is more important than family. Is money more important than their granddaughters? The blood money was an exchange for their son and daughter–in–law‘s lives. Don‘t they have any consideration for their son and daughter–in law with all that fuss about money? Oh, I guess they don‘t care about the dead since Mom and Dad are gone.
