Chapter 158
Out of habit, Zachary took a moment of silence before asking, “Has the Brown family left? Did they do anything excessive?”
“They didn‘t do anything overboard , but they did say a lot of nasty stuff. I was so angry I nearly beat them up. They‘re just as ridiculous as my relatives. All they did was blame my sister and say it was my sister‘s fault. They want my sister to go to their place and apologize to Hank with gifts. As if that‘s going to happen!”
The mention of the Browns saw a rise in Serenity‘s blood pressure. Before she knew it, Serenity clicked her tongue on the phone and quickly realized how embarrassingly she behaved. She said, “I got too angry, Mr. York. I hope you didn‘t mind my language.”
Zachary replied tenderly, “Did you have a stern word with them? You should chase them out with a broom. They had the audacity to tell your sister to apologize when she was a victim of abuse.”
“I roasted them to kingdom come, and they fled the scene. Jasmine took out the broom, but I thought I should keep it together since we‘re civilized human beings. I didn‘t chase them out with the broom.”
Zachary was tempted to laugh.
Serenity was not a tolerant person, but she put up with it for the sake of her sister‘s future and before her sister made a decision. It was hard on Serenity.
“Where is your brother–in–law working?”
Zachary intended to ring up the boss of that company to give Hank some extra attention.
That was, of course, only if he knew the boss of the company.
“Waltham Electronics. It‘s a large–scale company of over three thousand employees that manufactures mainly electronic parts. My sister and Hank joined the company straight out of college. My sister was in the finance department and worked her way up to be the finance director before getting hitched. “She‘s so gullible to trust Hank. She quit her job after marriage and stayed at home to ready herself for pregnancy. Her pregnancy and time with the baby took three years away from her career while Hank climbed the ladder to become a manager with his own secretary.”

The readers' comments on the novel: Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary)
Please use the English names as it is difficult to read and connect....
I am very greatful of your hard work in translating the novel in English, is there any chance you could use the character’s name in English please, it’s hard to follow the story with Chinese names. Thanks...
Please use correct names and watch the repeating of pages....
Thank you for the story, its going on well, however the changing of names somehow makes it difficult to follow. Even learning the new ones that you have tried to match, it is extremely difficult to follow and enjoy the drama while trying to go back to rechecking who we are talking about. The title is still Married at first sight (Serenity and Zachary) but they no longer exist in the whole picture. You created a dynamic community which I am sure everyone felt they lived and travelled with. We appreciate all the effort and your insight. I am very grateful for this novel is very captivating....
Please continue using Zachary,. Serenity,Duncan, Liberty etc . You jumped 30 updates and changed names where I'm unable to follow the story and losing interest. This is a great disservice to your loyal readers....
Changing names ruins the whole story. Whoever heard of such a thing....
Please use the old names, the new names are too confusing...
