Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 5380

Lilian refused to let Noelle accompany them.

Jane had been her sister-in-law for decades. How could she not know what Lilian was thinking?

She said, “Noelle, we won’t be going far. We’ll just take a drive around the area. Give us the car keys.”

After hesitating for a moment, Noelle said, “I’ll ask Mr. Laurence first.”

Then she walked to the side, called Laurence, and spoke to him quietly for a few moments.

Laurence said, “Then let them go out. If you’re really worried, you can secretly follow them with some people. Personally, I don’t think there’s anything to worry about. Even if Manny sent people to forcibly invite them over, the two of them would probably welcome it.”

Noelle was stunned.

“Haven’t you figured it out yet? The moment you said it was dangerous for them to go out and that they might get abducted, they didn’t want you to come along. They’re clearly trying to act as bait.”

The Longbottom family did not know Lilian’s true capabilities. They only knew that she was a miracle doctor with exceptional medical skills and some martial arts ability, but they had no idea just how formidable she really was.

Not only did they not know, but even her direct disciple had never truly witnessed how powerful she was. Laurence had only heard stories from Hawk and the others.

Noelle had nothing to say.

She had only intended to remind Lilian that going out without bodyguards could be dangerous. She had not expected it to play directly into Lilian’s plans.

“I’m not worried about Master. I’m worried about Mommy Jane.”

“You don’t need to worry about that either. Mom has the entire Johnson family behind her. Even though the two cities are far apart, the Johnsons are related to the O’Connor family in Satbury. Unless Manny is a complete fool, he wouldn’t dare do anything serious to Mom.”

Tati O’Connor had married one of the Johnson gentlemen, so she and Jane were sisters-in-law.

Over the past twenty years, the O’Connors’ position had become increasingly stable and powerful. In contrast, the Longbottom family’s influence had long since declined due to the lack of a true head of the family. Manny and Tony still feared the O’Connors.
