Married at First Sight Chapter 887

Chapter 887

Jasmine couldn’t help but laugh. “You can become a landlord whenever you wish.”

“The houses and stores belong to my parents, not me. My mom only asked me to collect the rent because she’s too lazy to handle it herself, and she pays me a few thousand as compensation.”

Her parents’ wealth was theirs alone,

but her worth could only be measured by the money she earned on her own.

“Aunt Rachel mentioned that Shawn has returned and invited us over for dinner to catch up.”

“He’s only back for the weekend to see my aunt. He won’t bother Seren, so you and Mr. York should ease off on attacking him and Lowe Enterprise.”

Jasmine wasn’t naive; she pieced everything together once she learned that Zachary was from the York family.

She couldn’t believe that Josh wasn’t involved in the attacks on Lowe Enterprise.

With no guilt, Josh remarked, “Zachary only informed Mr. Lowe of the reason for terminating their partnership out of consideration for you and me. Otherwise, Lowe Enterprise would still be oblivious to what hit them.”

Jasmine regarded him, thinking, ‘Out of consideration for you? What connection do you have to the Lowe family?’

But then she remembered that Josh was trying to win her over…

Zachary was still a man of integrity; he wasn’t as callous as the rumors suggested.

“Shawn really likes Seren, but he gave up when he learned she’s married to Zachary,”

Jasmine recalled what her mom had told her. After New Year’s, Aunt Rachel had informed Shawn of her decision to send him to the branch office in Havenmill for a fresh start. They also froze his bank account and allowance.

Thinking back to Shawn’s reaction at that time…

“Mom, I’ve already done what you asked. I stopped…

Contacting Serenity and visiting her—Isn’t that enough? Why are you sending me off to Havenmill?” Shawn was furious. His mother controlled him, forbidding him from seeing Serenity. He wasn’t even allowed to call her. He missed her so much that it was driving him crazy, yet he tried his best to endure the pain for her sake and refrained from visiting her bookstore. Still, his mother insisted on sending him to Havenmill.

Shawn angrily confronted his mother, “What do you want from me, Mom? I’m your son. Don’t you feel any concern for me?” Aunt Rachel stood up, ready to slap him, but her hand froze midair as she looked at her son’s furious expression. His handsome face, once full of vigor and vitality, now appeared sunken and lifeless because of Serenity.

But it wasn’t Serenity’s fault; it was his feelings that caused him pain. Experiencing emotions was always more agonizing than being emotionally numb. Shawn loved Serenity deeply, while she remained unaffected; he endured daily anguish and longing.

Feeling heartbroken for her son, Aunt Rachel nonetheless uttered cruel words. Lowering her hand, she said coldly, “Do you know who Serenity’s husband is?” She locked eyes with her son and continued, “Do you really believe that the man she married is just an ordinary employee? Do you think you can compete with him simply because you’re the young master of the Lowe family? Shawn, you’re still too young. How can you contend with your rival when you don’t even know who he is?”

“I’ll tell you then. The man Serenity married isn’t just any employee; he’s the CEO of York Corporation. Don’t look so shocked—this is the truth. Serenity’s husband is the eldest son of the York family. You met him at a banquet before, and he even greeted you.”
