Chapter 3991
**Married At First Sight Chapter 3991**
“Carrie claimed she had a miscarriage,” Serenity informed Zachary. “Camryn mentioned that Carrie wanted to undergo surgery and asked Trenton for money. Although Trenton offered to return and care for her, Carrie refused. I suspect the miscarriage occurred around that time. The way she looked at me just now—she likely recalled our past conflict. The hatred in her eyes indicated she still believes she was in the right. In her eyes, I’m the villain.”
Carrie truly seemed beyond hope.
No matter how much she despised Serenity, Serenity remained unafraid of her.
Now that Serenity had grasped Carrie’s true motives, she decided not to trust “Mrs. Labbe” or let her into her circle of friends. That decision alone was sufficient. If Carrie failed to fulfill her task, her financial backer would eventually grow impatient and discard her.
Even Camryn didn’t want Serenity to deal with Carrie. It wasn’t out of sisterly concern; Camryn simply wished to handle Carrie herself.
What Carrie despised most was witnessing Camryn marry the man she once desired, a man who deeply loved his wife. Once Camryn recovered and eventually became pregnant, Carrie would likely be consumed by jealousy.
Zachary’s voice lowered to a menacing tone. “If she dares to harm you, I’ll ensure she learns the meaning of regret.”
“Don’t worry,” Serenity reassured him. “I know how to protect myself. Besides, Carrie lacks the ability to hurt me. She’s merely a pawn, a plaything for her so-called financial backer. Sooner or later, she’ll be discarded. If her parents had disciplined her better—if they had shown Camryn even a hint of affection—none of this would have happened. Now, Camryn and Callum’s wedding will likely drive her completely insane.”
“That’s a problem,” Zachary said firmly, placing a gentle hand on Serenity’s belly. His tone softened. “Right now, you need to focus on taking care of yourself and our baby. Let everything else go.”
“Callum and his wife probably dislike Carrie even more than we do,” he continued. “They’re only holding back for Trenton’s sake; he values family loyalty.”
Serenity nodded. “Trenton does care deeply about family. When he first learned that Camryn was the one who sent their father to jail, it was difficult for him to accept. Although he understood that Camryn wasn’t at fault, he still resented her for prioritizing justice over family loyalty. It took him time to come to terms with the truth. If Camryn were to kill Carrie now, I fear it would completely ruin their sibling relationship.”
She sighed. “Camryn mentioned that Trenton has always been her protector, her one constant as an older brother. That warmth is the only thing she’s known for the past twenty years, and she treasures it.”
Shaking her head, Serenity resolved to change the subject. “Let’s not discuss Carrie any further. We should go to the hospital for my prenatal checkup. After that, you can take me back to the company; you still need to work this afternoon.”
As the driver began to pull away, Zachary said, “Elisa is managing your company for now. You and Jasmine should focus on the baby. There’s no rush to return to work. Once the baby is born, you can resume your career.”
After Elisa and Remy got engaged, they decided to postpone their wedding until after Serenity and Jasmine had their babies. Although Remy wanted to marry sooner, Elisa insisted on waiting, and Remy respected her decision. Their wedding was scheduled for the end of the year.
Earlier in the year, three other couples—Callum and Camryn, Kevin and Hayden, and Julian and
Kiera organized their weddings together. Following the ceremonies, everyone departed for their honeymoons, leaving behind cherished memories of the beautiful celebrations.
