Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 2752

Caroline turned her gaze away from Hunter and followed Belinda to a small lounge. She placed the lunch box on the table and opened it. She told her mother, “I even brought you some fruits.”

Belinda sat and stared at the sandwiches and cut fruits Caroline had brought. After some time, she said, “You’re the only one who’ll actually prepare sandwiches for me.”

Her sons and Celine would not have followed her request because they opined that those foods were not worthy of her.

“Have the sandwiches while they’re fresh, Mom.”

Back when Caroline was still with her abusive adoptive family, she could not even have sandwiches.

A sandwich was a luxury for when she was young.

Having experienced a tough childhood, Caroline never wasted money once she was an adult and earning money herself. She maintained a low profile and spent money wisely.

Her personality, which was shaped by her environment, did not change with her increasing savings.

Belinda ate the sandwiches while recalling a scene from decades ago. She and her sister’s family were having breakfast together in the morning.

Even after plotting her sisters’ murder and becoming the matriarch, she was not happy.

“Mom, about Dad…” Caroline asked softly.

Hunter did not seem like he was beaten up. Did Mom stab him?

After he was sent to the hospital last night, Mom forbade them from asking about his condition. Caroline did as told. Mom would not let Dad die anyway.

Knowing Mom, she would torture Dad slowly instead of letting him die right away, which would have been an easy way out for him.

“He won’t die.”

“If I die one day, just inherit the position according to my will. As long as you don’t get blinded by love and give any assets to your man, my granddaughter will be able to receive everything that I bequeath to you.”

“Why are you talking about this, Mom? You’re still young.”

Belinda sighed. “My energy depletes by the day. I must admit that I’m old. I’m seventy. Back in the day, to have lived until seventy was considered rare and a very old age. Who knows when I’ll die from them angering me?

“I’ll arrange everything once your dad’s discharged, but you must remember not to be blinded by love.”

“If I were to have an illegitimate daughter, can she be recognized as a Fisher?”

Belinda was stunned. Then, she quickly asked, “You have an illegitimate daughter? When did it happen?”

Caroline had only been back for two years. Belinda could not remember when her daughter had started dating or gotten pregnant and birthed child.
