Married at First Sight Chapter 52

Chapter 52
“Zachary is not someone she should be involved with. You need to help her move on. You don’t see other young women lingering around Zachary, except for his family,” Clive expressed his frustration. “He’s a cold-hearted man. Why can’t Elisa just listen to reason?” Clive finally admitted defeat regarding his sister. “I’m too busy to handle this right now. Honey, I’m relying on you to look after Elisa.”
“Focus on your work. I’ll go pick Elisa up and take her shopping with Mom. She’s been feeling a bit down lately,” Alice replied. Clive’s wife, Alice, enjoyed a wonderful relationship with her mother-in-law. Noticing her mother-in-law’s sadness, Alice encouraged her to get out for some fresh air. A bit of shopping might lift her spirits. Clive fell quiet, understanding the root of his mother’s sorrow. There had been no updates about his aunt, a topic his mother often brought up. Audrey, Clive’s mother, had grown up in an orphanage after losing her parents at a young age, along with her younger sister who was just four years old.
The sisters were subsequently placed in an orphanage. Eventually, a wealthy couple visited the orphanage looking to adopt. They chose Audrey’s younger sister. At the time, Audrey was eight and her sister was only four. Although it pained her to let her sister go, Audrey knew that the couple could provide a better life for her sister. Thus, she made the difficult decision to allow the adoption.
Before their heartbreaking separation, the sisters took a picture together as a keepsake. Decades passed without any contact. As Audrey reached adulthood, she left the orphanage and worked diligently to climb the corporate ladder, earning the trust and respect of her superiors. She also caught the attention of the boss’s eldest son, ultimately marrying into a wealthy family and becoming Mrs. Stone.
Now that she had the resources, Audrey never stopped searching for her sister.

Clive’s sister had been hoping to hear from her sibling for years, but her efforts yielded no response. Recently, Clive stumbled upon some information regarding his aunt, which brought joy to Audrey. They had successfully tracked down the affluent couple who had adopted Audrey’s sister. Eager to learn more, Clive and his father accompanied Audrey on a visit to the wealthy couple. During their meeting, they discovered that the couple had welcomed their own child just a year after the adoption.

Unfortunately, things took a turn for the worse. The couple, after having their biological child, began to treat Audrey’s sister poorly. They instructed their maid to take her away, intending to give her to someone else, as they wished to reserve their family inheritance solely for their own bloodline. Time passed, and the maid eventually disappeared, leaving her family unaware of the situation and the fate of Audrey’s sister. The latest developments in the search weighed heavily on Audrey’s mind. The only remaining clue to find Clive’s aunt was an old photograph that their mother had kept all these years.

Clive took the initiative to upload a digital version of the photograph online, hoping it would lead them to his aunt or her descendants. “Honey, tell Mom that we’ll find her sister as long as she’s alive. Even if her sister has passed on, we will track down her children. Mom needs to take it easy; we still need her to recognize her sister when we eventually find her,” Clive expressed, filled with love for his mother and hoping she could regain her strength.

Alice responded, “I will. Now, get back to your work. I’ll go pick up Elisa. Clive, if Elisa isn’t receptive, why not just let her try? Zachary might seem indifferent, but he’s a good man who Elisa could potentially connect with.” Alice genuinely believed in Elisa’s potential with Zachary and supported the idea of her taking the leap to confess her feelings.

Although both families belonged to the same social class, they had a strained relationship due to fierce competition in business. Nevertheless, they still maintained a level of social etiquette whenever they interacted.

If Elisa decides to confront Zachary and marry into the York family, it could help resolve the ongoing tensions between their two families.
