Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 5609

Even if Darien did not know about Laurence and Noelle's relationship, he would still have treated Noelle politely.

She was fiercely loyal and exceptionally skilled. She was certainly more than qualified to serve as a bodyguard. Darien respected anyone with genuine strength and ability.

"Noelle, have a seat too."

Laurence suddenly turned to her, not letting her stand behind him as she had always done.

Noelle hesitated for a moment before agreeing.

She brought over a stool, placed it several feet away from Laurence, and slowly sat down.

Once she was seated, Laurence poured her a cup of tea and set it in front of her. Only then did he turn to Darien. "Mr. Yarrow, please have some tea."

Darien observed every one of Laurence's actions.

It seemed the rumors were true. Laurence intended to marry Noelle and make her the matriarch of the Longbottom family. Whenever he saw Laurence in the past, Noelle would always stand beside him. Now, Laurence was asking her to sit down.

He was no longer treating her as merely his bodyguard. He was helping her break away from her old habits and learn to stand on equal footing with him.

Darien noted to himself to remind his family to show Noelle proper respect whenever they met her in the future. They must never treat her as a mere bodyguard.

Once Laurence and Noelle married, they might no longer be as inseparable as they were now. After all, being the matriarch of such a prominent family came with countless responsibilities. Noelle would have to handle family affairs and would not be able to follow Laurence around all day.

That meant people in Havenmill would have more opportunities to encounter Noelle on her own. Whether they treated her well or not would depend on how perceptive they were.

Whatever background Noelle might have had, Laurence loved her and was determined to give her a place she belonged. Even the elders of the Longbottom family could not stop him from marrying her, which meant she was one of the faces of the Longbottom family. Disrespecting her would be equivalent to offending the entire family.
