Chapter 873<\/div>\n
\u201cJust wait! I\u2019ll cause a scene at your husband\u2019s office and demand that he pays up. If he doesn\u2019t, I\u2019ll turn to your in-laws. You won\u2019t be able to show your face there. They\u2019ll find you unbearable and kick you out!\u201d threatened Old Mr. Hunt.<\/div>\n
That was his intention.<\/div>\n
Before coming here, his grandsons had prepared him in case Serenity and Liberty resented them too much to pay. Now that Serenity was Mrs. York, she would surely want to maintain her image more than ever.<\/div>\n
If they made a public ruckus, Serenity would likely pay them hush money to protect her in-laws\u2019 reputation.<\/div>\n
The Hunts could create a disturbance at Zachary\u2019s office or the York family home if Serenity refused to pay. Although Serenity was not on good terms with them, they were still family, and their presence would be an embarrassment for her.<\/div>\n
Serenity had little chance of establishing herself after marrying into the York family as an outsider. In fact, her in-laws probably didn\u2019t even like her. A public outburst from the Hunts would undoubtedly humiliate the Yorks and escalate the conflict between her and them.<\/div>\n
This situation could potentially lead to Zachary divorcing Serenity.<\/div>\n
John advised Old Mr. Hunt to gauge Serenity\u2019s willingness to pay while they were here. If she agreed, they could return for more. After all, the Yorks were wealthy, and the entire family could enjoy a comfortable lifestyle as long as they asked whenever they needed money.<\/div>\n
Of course, they were also prepared for Serenity to refuse. If that happened, they would contact the press to discreetly record them causing a scene at York Corporation or the York residence and publish the footage online. They would\u2026<\/div>\n

The Yorks would likely be furious, and Serenity would bear the brunt of their anger. The Hunts had nothing to lose since they were unemployed, and they intended to make Serenity\u2019s life difficult until she was driven out of the York family. Why should Serenity embrace her role as Mrs. York when their lives felt like a living hell?<\/p>\n

\u201cYou don\u2019t need to go to my office. I\u2019m right behind you,\u201d a deep, flat voice said. Old Mr. Hunt turned his head and saw it was Zachary. His sons and grandsons looked frightened as Zachary\u2019s security team kept them at bay. <\/p>\n

God only knew when Zachary had arrived and how much of the conversation he had overheard. Zachary had a habit of waking up early, but now that his wife was no longer in bed beside him, he was up before dawn. He went to his sister-in-law\u2019s house to wait for Serenity downstairs. <\/p>\n

Despite the lengthy wait, Serenity was nowhere to be seen. It wasn\u2019t until his sister-in-law appeared with Sonny that Zachary realized Serenity was already at the shop. He quickly headed to Wiltspoon School, stopping along the way to buy a bouquet of roses from a florist.<\/p>\n

As he approached, Zachary noticed a few cars parked outside the shop and a crowd gathered at the door. Thanks to his keen eyesight and good memory, he recognized the group from afar\u2014it was the greedy Hunt family. His mother had mentioned the Hunts the day before, expressing concern that they might come to demand money from Serenity after discovering his identity. <\/p>\n

He never expected this absurd family to come harassing his wife first thing in the morning. Old Mr. Hunt\u2019s crudeness knew no boundaries. Were Serenity and her sister not considered Old Mr. Hunt\u2019s?<\/p>\n

Granddaughters? Why was the old man always trying to extract money from the sisters? Serenity would never turn her back on Old Mr. Hunt, even if he asked nicely and was struggling with the high cost of living. At the very least, she would offer a little something to help with his expenses. <\/p>\n

However, the Hunts were doing well. True, Zachary had driven them out of business and caused them to lose their jobs, but they had saved a considerable amount of money over the years. Their savings were sufficient to support them even if they were forced out of their careers. <\/p>\n

Still, all they seemed to want was to take advantage of Serenity and Liberty as if the girls were not family, or worse, mere strangers.<\/p>\n
