Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 625

Chapter 625

“Aunt Rachel, I didn’t drive and took Shawn’s car here. It’d be great if you could arrange for the chauffeur to drive me back to the shop.”

Holding back her anger, Mrs. Lowe summoned a maid to arrange the ride for Jasmine with the chauffeur.

Once Jasmine was gone, Mrs. Lowe slapped her son and lashed out, “Shawn, are you trying to infuriate me? Serenity is three years older than you. She doesn’t come from a good family. Are you blind to fall for her?”

“Aren’t you fond of Serenity, Mom?

“So what if she’s older? It’s not like she’s thirty years older than I am. How is it that she doesn’t come from a good family? Her family isn’t involved in the mafia. She comes from a family of farmers, not criminals.”

Mrs. Lowe grimaced. “I like her and see her as another niece of mine because of Jasmine. I’m only fond of her on the condition that she doesn’t get involved with you.

“I wouldn’t have allowed you two to spend time together had I known what was going on in your head.

“You better give up on your feelings, Shawn. Even if Serenity wasn’t married, I wouldn’t let anything develop between you two. Serenity’s relatives are bloodsuckers. Anybody would. be unlucky to be acquainted with that family.

“Serenity lost her parents early in life. I admit that she’s a nice girl, but she’s not for you. She doesn’t deserve you. You’re the heir of the Lowe family and the successor of Lowe Enterprise. Your wife must be someone who is born into privilege.

“What can Serenity help you with? Nothing. I won’t allow you to marry someone without social standing. We might ignore her relatives and refuse to see them as in-laws, but it won’t stop her relatives from using our family name to get around and ride on our coattails. It’ll only give our family a bad name.”

Shawn refuted, “I like Serenity, Mom. I’m not asking her for anything, nor do I need her to help me with anything. Everybody knows that she doesn’t get along with her relatives. Those people can’t possibly claim to be our in-laws and destroy our family’s reputation.

“Mom, I really, really love Serenity. Can you…”

“No! Don’t ask me for anything! I won’t ever give my blessing so long as it involves Serenity! Besides, Serenity’s married. She has a husband. Your harassment makes you a homewrecker!

“I’m warning you, Shawn! Don’t blame me for going after Serenity if you continue to pester her.”
