Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 5435

Laurence picked up the necklace again and walked behind Noelle, intending to fasten it around her neck.

“Mr. Laurence, no.”

Noelle snapped back to her senses and hurriedly stopped him. “Sir, this necklace is far too precious. I can’t accept it.”

It was a necklace meant to be worn only by the wife of the head of the Longbottoms.

She was nothing more than Laurence’s bodyguard. What right did she have to wear something so valuable?

Laurence gazed at her deeply. “Noelle, I bought this necklace to give to you as a token of my love. If you don’t want it, then it has no meaning. I’ll throw it away.”

With those words, he gripped the necklace as if to toss it aside.

“Mr. Laurence!”

Noelle quickly stopped him again.

This necklace cost him tens of millions. How could he just throw it away?

“Mr. Laurence, please don’t force me,” she said helplessly. “We’re not a good match. I’m just an orphan.”

“I’m an orphan too. My family is gone. I was raised by Doc and the others. You know that. We’re both orphans, so neither of us is nobler than the other.

“And stop calling me Mr. Laurence. I’m not your boss, and I never once thought of you as a servant. We’re equals, Noelle. From now on, call me by my name.”

Laurence’s refutation left Noelle speechless.

After a long silence, she said softly, “Even if you’re an orphan, you still have Master, Mom, and everyone else. You were born into a prestigious family too. You’re someone destined for greatness.”
