Chapter 1230
Married at First Sight
Zachary asked.
âWe need to deliver some poultry to my sister, so we should leave now.â
Her sister might be asleep if they went too late. The last thing they wanted was to wake Liberty up.
Serenity closed the shop and got into Zacharyâs car while the bodyguards took her car back.
During the ride, she asked Zachary, âAny news on the kidnapping at the zoo? Was it not the Newmans?â
Zachary took a moment in silence before answering, âThe only thing confirmed is that Mr.Newman wasnât in on it.â
âIf it wasnât him, was it Mrs. Newman?â He mentioned nothing about Mrs. Newman.
âJosh is still investigating. Nothing is concrete for now, but we have our eyes on Mrs. Newman.â
Zachary had believed the prime target was him right from the start.
After a series of investigations though, he realized that the mastermind was after Serenity,not him.
Since Mrs. Newman and her daughter had a grudge against Serenity, they zeroed in on Mrs. Newman.
âMr. Newman and his wife seem to have a lot of secrets, but theyâre cautious and careful not to leave any dirt behind. The couple even piqued Julianâs interest.â
Julian was interested in cases that were tough to crack. Now that his attention was caught, Julian would handle the investigation himself.
âMaybe weâll get something on the couple if we get help from Ms. Camryn.â
With Camrynâs disinterested personality, Serenity voiced her concern, âHow can she help if she canât see? No matter what, Mrs. Newman is her mother.â
Camryn and Mrs. Newman did not get along, but it would not change the fact that Mrs. Newman was her mother.
Zachary kept to himself for a while before replying, âWeâll see how things go for Callum and Ms.
Camryn. Callum has asked a practicing student of miracle healer to treat Ms. Camrynâs eyes.â
âMiracle healer?â
The term did not sound very scientific.
Since entering Zacharyâs world, Serenity realized she was introduced to a lot of unfamiliar things and people.
As expected, she lived in a simple world before.
âThe miracle healer is a highly skilled medical doctor. We donât know his name. All we know is that he is a genius doctor. He doesnât work in the hospital or a health center for that matter.
âHe would only see patients of his preference. He wonât even examine if the patient doesnât meet his personal liking. Nevertheless, he managed to heal the people he examined. That is how he earned his name.
âIf my guess is right, he must be about my nanaâs age. It must be hard for the old man to move around at this age because not much was heard about him lately, but he has a student.
âThe student, Dr. Carden, is a legend too. She rescued Mr. Lafayette during the power struggle between the Hamiltons and Lafayettes in Meadspring last year. She was the reason for the fall of the Hamiltons. The police arrested the family.
âLater, I heard Dr. Carden became close with Lee and Tim of the Johnson family but nothing more thereafter.â
Since Lilian Carden did not return to Annenburg with the Johnson family, the Yorks could not track her down.
âDr. Carden is on good terms with the ladies of the Lafayettes and the Johnsons. However, Mr.
Lafayette and his wife went on a honeymoon. Weâll see whether we can get anything on Dr. Carden from Mrs. YoungâJohnson.â
Serenity listened intently and asked, âYou talked about taking me on a trip to Annenburg- when are you bringing me? I want to get to know Mrs. YoungâJohnson. Iâve heard stories about her.
âSheâs like the heroine in a book. Her life story was movieâlike. Everybody wants to be her.â
Serenity got to know a bit about Jane from Zachary and Elisa.
She believed Jane had the best of both worldsâdeeply loved by her inâlaws and her family.
