Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 2321

Belinda provided benefits to his family, but they had always kept a low profile outside due to her authority over them.

Hunter also had to be meek in front of his wife, like a maid, and that upset him. He had no choice but to bet all his hope on his daughter.

“Cece, I can’t change what your mom has decided. You should go to her. I can’t do anything. Didn’t you hear what Caroline said? I married into your mom’s family. I don’t have any authority.”

“Dad.”

Hunter said resignedly, “Cece, my hands are tied. You know what status I hold in this family.”

Celine pouted. She knew her dad was telling the truth. He had no authority in the Fisher family.

In the study room on the second floor, Belinda was already seated behind the table and waiting for Caroline. She said, “Lock the door.”

Caroline did as told.

“Why did your car break down?” Belinda asked.

“It was tampered with.”

Belinda leaned against the chair and asked, “Do you suspect anyone?”

“I can’t think of anyone besides my dad, brothers, sisters-in-law, and your dearest Celine.”

Caroline’s reply did not anger Belinda.

After a moment of silence, Belinda said, “My feelings for Celine are complicated now. However, our family rules can’t be changed.”
