Knowing that Pedro cared about Kathryn, Clarissa reassured him, “Don’t worry, this medicine won’t harm her. It will just make her sleep for a few days. Even when she wakes up, she’ll be weak for a week or two. I would never harm my only daughter.”
Pedro took the packet of powder, slipped it into his pocket, and said to Clarissa, “Madam, I’ve taken the medicine, but I can’t guarantee the young lady will take it.”
Clarissa had already decided that if Pedro didn’t do it, she would find someone else to drug Kathryn. But Pedro planned to have the medicine tested first to understand what it was, so Kathryn could be more cautious.
“I understand you don’t mean to harm her, madam,” Pedro continued, “but Kathryn is an adult with her own mind. If I do this, she’ll be furious with me.”
After a pause, Clarissa said, “It doesn’t matter what she thinks. I just want to get her out of here.”
“Pedro, for Kathryn’s sake, we must be on the same page this time. We’re doing this for her.”
Pedro wanted to argue—was this really for Kathryn’s sake? Did Kathryn want this? But he held his tongue.
Clarissa added, “Don’t tell Kathryn about the medicine.”
Pedro responded, “I’m someone she trusts. I can’t keep secrets from her.”
Clarissa replied firmly, “Sometimes it’s necessary to keep things from her. There are lies, and then there are lies told for the right reasons. It’s okay to tell a good lie once in a while. Even if Kathryn gets mad at you, it won’t last. She’s smart and will understand my intentions as her mother.”

The readers' comments on the novel: Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary)
What happened? No updates after 3650....
Y all of a sudden there is no updates? Sometime they update 7 chapters, sometimes 2 and sometimes none… 😞...
It says 7 chapters a day. Some days we don't even get 1 chapter....
Yayyy!!!! New chapters. Love, love this novel....
Been hanging for a few weeks now are we gonna finish the chapters as something happened to the author...
Do a search in Yahoo for Aekosa Married at First Sight they have the updated chapters. There is a lot of ads also it is an actual pdf so a little different type of reading....
There was a site that updated this story almost every day. This site no longer offers the book for free. It also seems that it translated it in different languages. It appears all the free sites for this novel have stopped being updated since this one particular site now requires a paid subscription. I suspect all the free sites got their updates from there. Good Novel owns the rights to publish the translation but they are still behind. Also their site you have to pay. It used to be that you could find multiple sites with this story but that no longer seems to be the case. The site that has a subscription has been updating it with more chapters. It is now at 3632. We may not see additional updates until Good Novel catches up to the chapter numbers....
Guys, let’s continue the story by ourselves… let’s imagine what would happen in jensburg.. once they all reach there??...
I really hope that the author writing this novel is alive and well.... There hasn't been an update in days. I hope nothing terrible has happened...
This site obviously doesn't read the comme ts. If they did, I would hope they would have the decency to at least provide an explanation to its readers....
