Married at First Sight Chapter 891

Chapter 891

Serenity gazed at Elisa in silence.

Elisa remarked, “I’m feeling a bit fatigued from all this talking. I’m going to grab a glass of water. Would you like one?”

“Yes, please, and thank you.”

Elisa playfully pinched Serenity’s cheek, laughing. “We’re sisters, so no need to be so formal. You take great care of your face; it feels really nice to touch. Does Zachary enjoy touching your face?”

Serenity was taken aback.

Before she could respond, Elisa smiled and walked away.

She poured warm water for both of them.

As Serenity extended her injured hand to take the cup, Elisa instead brought it directly to Serenity’s lips and said gently, “I’ll feed you.”

“I can manage on my own. I might not be able to do much with my fingers wrapped like this, but I can still hold a glass of water.”

Despite her words, Serenity accepted Elisa’s kindness.

Once they both finished their water, Elisa sat back down and said, “That’s all I have to share for now. Please think about what I said. If you’re unwilling to change, then you need to be clear with Zachary. You two can end things early if he and his family cannot accept you.”

“It’s not as if his family is unaware of my financial situation,” Serenity replied on behalf of her in-laws. The York family had known her background from the start.

Elisa chuckled. “That’s true. The elders of the York family are quite open-minded. Even if they harbor some disapproval, they won’t show it publicly. They respect the choices of the younger generation, so your main concern is with Zachary.”

“I don’t think a separation is likely unless he stops loving you. However, he is quite possessive and devoted. If you want to leave him, you’ll need to…”

“You’re likely going to have to wait until you’re reincarnated in your next life,” Elisa remarked. Serenity sighed in response. “Elisa, I believe the gap between us is too significant. Even if we reconcile now, I’ll always feel inadequate for him, and I’ll become overly sensitive to it. Sensitive individuals are also more likely to lose their temper.”

“If I lose my temper, arguments will arise easily, and our feelings for each other aren’t particularly strong to begin with. Our relationship can’t withstand constant quarreling. Regarding a breakup, it’s true he’s not ready to end things with me now. Honestly, I can’t bear the thought of breaking up either. I have feelings for him too.”

“Let me think about it.” Serenity had given this considerable thought. She contemplated the challenges she and Zachary would face in the future. As Elisa mentioned, she would represent not only herself but also Zachary and the entire York family. Every action she took would be scrutinized. A minor mistake could quickly go viral, severely damaging her reputation as well as that of the York family.

Being a noblewoman was challenging, and it was even more difficult to be the wife of the wealthiest man in the city. Lacking a strong family support system, if she wanted to be with Zachary for the long haul, she needed to strengthen herself, much like her aunt had done within the Stone family.

However, this was easier said than done. With all industries saturated, it would be extremely challenging for her to reinvest in a business. She wasn’t even sure where to start. Previously, she hadn’t harbored any grand ambitions; she merely envisioned running the bookstore with her best friend. With the modest income from her online store, she hoped to save enough money for a…

She saved for a house down payment, hoping to have a true home of her own in the vibrant city. In comparison to many salaried workers, she was already quite well-off. She never considered marrying into the nobility, nor did she have any interest in them. This was because she understood that she did not want to force herself into a circle where she did not belong. Lacking a strong passion for anything, she simply desired a peaceful life. Everyone understood the reason behind her sudden marriage to Zachary, so there was nothing more to discuss.
