Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 2627

Belinda responded, “Hmm, that’s good. I’m not at home, so listen to Caroline. Anyone who disrespects Caroline disrespects me.”

The servant’s expression stiffened, and she quickly responded, “Noted, Madam Fisher.”

“That’s all, I’ll hang up now.”

Right then, Belinda was ready to disembark.

She did not call Hunter or notify anyone to fetch her from the airport. Her reason for returning early was to see how well Caroline was doing during her absence.

After getting off the plane, the group walked out of the airport and hailed two taxis to head to Fisher Enterprise.

Belinda did not go home and only wanted to go to the company.

After more than ten minutes in the taxi, Belinda called Hunter. It took a while before he picked up.

“What were you doing? It took so long for you to answer the phone,” Belinda questioned.

Hunter was still catching his breath and came up with a lie, “I’m at home, and my phone is charging upstairs. I heard the phone ring, so I rushed upstairs to answer it. Running up the stairs got me out of breath. I’m getting old, only a few steps up and I’m panting.”

Belinda laughed, “You think you’re still young? We’re both over seventy.”

“Sweetheart, when are you coming back?”

Hunter added, “You went to attend a wedding, why did it take so long? You’ve been away for almost half a month, and you didn’t take me with you.”

“I didn’t just attend a wedding, there were other things I needed to take care of. You can’t help with them anyway so why bother bringing you along? I still have a few more days of work before I can return. Look after things at home. Caroline is still new at managing the company, and people aren’t completely convinced by her.”

“Caroline has a solid moral compass, impartial and just. She is perfect for the role of the matriarch. Your emotions will no doubt lean toward Celine, so it's only natural that you find Caroline less pleasing.

“Alright, I'm busy now. Let's talk about our daughters when I return. When I'm not at home, you better behave and not flirt with others outside. Keep your eyes on our sons, too.”

All three sons had cheated. If she had not strictly monitored Hunter in the past, who knew how many times he would have cheated on her?

It seemed that Hunter carried some unpleasant genes—the genes of a cheater.

Fortunately, Caroline inherited her good genes.

“Our sons are busy with business, and they occasionally play around. It’s not like they’re bringing anyone home, so as long as they don’t get divorced, let the daughters-in-law turn a blind eye. How else do you expect me to handle it when things have gotten so ugly? I don’t have a say in this household.”
