Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 1399

Chapter 1399

Serenity tilted her head to look at Zachary and asked him, “Did you guys discuss this long ago? Or did you already know the other party’s plot and deliberately used Sonny to lure them?”

“We didn’t!” Zachary hurriedly denied it.

“The Buchams only watched Mrs. Newman’s moves and noticed that she was unusual today. They informed me and Duncan, so we increased our efforts to protect Liberty and Sonny.”

Zachary explained, “If they snatch Sonny away, we can surely save him. Only, we underestimated Liberty’s determination as a mother to protect her child. She ran so fast at that time and left our bodyguards behind.

“They were only a few minutes slower, but she was already harmed.”

Serenity looked down at Sonny, who was not even sleeping soundly. She said with red eyes, Sonny was born to my sister and is her life. Not to mention she didn’t know you had people secretly protecting her and could help her save Sonny. But even if she knew, she would still chase after the bad guys out of a mother’s instinct to get him back.”

Zachary blamed himself and said, “It was also due to our poor protection.”

Serenity freed one of her hands to wipe her tears. “Why didn’t you remind my sister that Jessica was being used?”

“She knows–it was she who suspected Jessica first and called to tell me about it. She insisted on following Hank and Jessica today because she suspected Jessica and refused to let Hank take Sonny away by himself.”

Serenity asked, “Why didn’t she tell me?”

Zachary was stumped for an answer. Liberty had her reason for not saying it, but he did not know why.

“Did Mr. Bucham have all the evidence?”

“The evidence is with Julian.”

“Why didn’t you call the police when you have all the evidence?” Serenity questioned.

Zachary answered after a moment of silence. “Mrs. Newman’s men were scattered in their hiding, so arresting one of them would alert the rest. After the last zoo incident, I told you and Liberty to treat that as an accident and to live as usual.

“But Mrs. Newman would definitely strike again. We just needed to bide our time, and when she goes crazy, we can focus our efforts on catching her and her men. Even if we can’t capture all of them, we can capture most of them.”
