Sariyah continued, “Aunt Audrey is the eldest daughter of the former Matriarch, and Clarissa’s niece. With Grandpa Jimenez back, I’m sure Clarissa will invite us all under the pretext of welcoming Aunt Audrey and Grandpa Jimenez.”
She added, “Then my master, Mr. Dakota, and I will search the Farrell mansion again. Unless Clarissa swallows the gun, we can’t cut her open to find it. But with our skills, we won’t fail.”
Everyone knew Clarissa’s tactics well.
At around ten o’clock that evening, the doorbell at the Queen family’s house rang. It was the Farrell family’s butler, delivering an invitation from Clarissa. She invited Audrey and the group to a dinner at the Farrell mansion the next night, under the guise of welcoming Audrey and Old Mr. Jimenez.
The dinner party was for the Farrell family members with some status.
Clarissa made it clear it was a family dinner, so the Queen family wasn’t invited. She didn’t want to be their enemy.
Audrey told the butler, “Tell your matriarch we’ll arrive on time tomorrow evening. Make sure there’s plenty of food and wine. Since she’s welcoming me and Uncle Jimenez, everyone should eat and drink well.”
The butler replied respectfully, “Madam, I’ll convey your message to our matriarch.”
Audrey added, “In Jensburg, I prefer people to call me by my name.”
After a brief pause, the butler, still respectful, said, “I’ve delivered the invitation as instructed. If there’s nothing else, I’ll report back.” Audrey nodded.
The Queen family’s butler escorted the Farrell family’s butler out.
After the Farrell family’s butler left, Audrey glanced at the large stack of invitations. She told everyone, “We have a banquet tomorrow evening. Let’s eat and drink well before we go out. Don’t drink even a drop of water at the Farrell house. Be cautious—Clarissa might poison the food and drinks.”
Lilian yawned. It was time for her to rest.
She had been extremely busy lately, performing several operations daily.
This trip to Jensburg with Audrey was supposed to be a break for Lilian. She just wanted a good night’s sleep, knowing she had to face Grandpa Jimenez tomorrow.
After hearing Audrey’s warning, Lilian said, “With me here, what are you afraid of? Unless that old witch Clarissa uses instant-kill poison, she won’t dare poison the food with her own family present.”
Audrey, knowing Lilian’s skills, smiled. “Dr. Carden, you’re right. But you should eat something before we go. You never know how long the argument will last. You need to eat well to have the energy to fight.” Lilian agreed.
Zachary then said, “Aunt, I think Clarissa is more likely to set fire to the house, trapping us inside to die with her. Dunn probably prepared plenty of gasoline.” Liberty added, “Mr. Dakota said he’d replace the gasoline with water.”
Everyone smiled.
They knew Clarissa was planning something and were already thinking of ways to counter it. But they hadn’t anticipated what Dakota and his apprentice were up to.
Both Zachary and Clive were relieved they had never crossed paths with these old masters.

The readers' comments on the novel: Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary)
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....
I am reading at naijdate.com website. the admin updates daily. The latest chapter there is 3622.. but it needs subscription....
Please update....
