Married At First Sight Chapter 3972
Chapter 3972
Spencer had been living abroad for so long that he rarely visited home. The idea of settling down and raising a family seemed far-fetched. After all, if Abby and Spencer were to get married and have children, someone would need to prioritize family over work—and neither of them seemed willing to make that sacrifice.
Abby was deeply committed to her career, and Spencer, being ambitious and driven, wasn’t the type to compromise his professional goals either. This was why their parents had shelved the idea of matchmaking years ago.
But now, with Spencer’s job transfer requiring him to stay in Huyoniville long-term, everything had changed.
When Mrs. Du’s best friend heard about Spencer’s move, she wasted no time reigniting the discussion about a potential match. Mrs. Du, eager to see her daughter paired with someone she trusted, planned to have Abby pick him up at the airport to reconnect.
Back in the present, Evan suddenly broke into the conversation, shamelessly declaring,
“Auntie, Abby likes me. Don’t try to match her with someone else.”
Abby glanced at him, her expression unreadable. She didn’t dignify his bold statement with a response.
On the other end of the line, Mrs. Du’s sharp ears picked up Evan’s voice. “Abby, is that stinky boy from the York family with you again?” she asked. “He came by on the fourth day of the New Year. You weren’t home, so we didn’t let him in. I thought he had given up, but here he is, bothering you at work. What’s his deal?”
Before Abby could answer, Mrs. Du continued, “If he’s trying to win you back, you should give Spencer a chance. Let that boy know you can do far better than him any day.”
Evan overheard the remark and protested indignantly, “Auntie, I’m not stinky!”
Mrs. Du snorted. “You are a stinky boy. Anyone who upsets my precious daughter is a stinky boy.”
“Mom,” Abby interrupted, eager to steer the conversation elsewhere, “it’s only
Wednesday. I can’t confirm my schedule for Friday yet. Let me see if I can make time to pick up Spencer, okay?”
“Fine, but don’t forget,” Mrs. Du replied before Abby hurriedly ended the call.
As soon as she hung up, Evan asked, “Is your mom trying to set you up with someone?” “What does it matter to you?” Abby shot back, her tone cold.
Evan, caught off guard, couldn’t think of a retort. After all, what claim did he have over Abby now? The painful truth was that she had once been his fiancée, but through his own carelessness, he had pushed her away. If he wanted her back, the road ahead would be long and fraught with challenges.
“How long have you known him?” Evan pressed, undeterred.
Abby raised an eyebrow, unimpressed by his persistence. “Spencer has known me since the day I was born.”
Evan’s expression tightened.
“Brother Spencer and I go way back—nearly 30 years. Our bond is special,” Abby continued, emphasizing her words to provoke him.
Evan’s mind reeled. Mrs. Du’s earlier comments about Spencer being a perfect match for Abby gnawed at him. He couldn’t shake the feeling that this “Brother Spencer” was a real threat.
Abby leaned back in her chair, feigning casual indifference. “Spencer is six years older than me. My mom always says older men are more caring.”
“I’m older than you too,” Evan interjected quickly, his tone defensive.
Abby smirked, meeting his gaze. “Oh really, Evan? Do you even understand what you’re saying? Are you trying to pursue me again? Because if I remember correctly, you once said you could never fall in love with me. So why are you here, stirring things up?”
Evan opened his mouth to respond, but no words came out. For once, the usually smooth-talking man was at a loss.
Abby’s sharp question hung in the air, leaving Evan to wrestle with the consequences of his past mistakes.

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...
