Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 5405

Surprisingly, Manny was smart enough to suspect there would be a trap and avoid stepping inside.

Once Manny led his men away, the hounds that had been lying lifelessly on the ground began to move, scrambling back to their feet.

The large dogs trotted over to the gates, staring out into the darkness in the direction Manny had fled.

Was their acting not good enough?

How on earth did he see through them?

Their master had given strict orders that no matter what happened tonight, they were not allowed to bark. They had to play dead, and they absolutely could not eat any treats tossed in from the outside. Otherwise, they really would end up dead.

Standing just behind Laurence, Noelle watched as he lowered his binoculars.

“Manny left?” she asked.

“Yeah, he didn’t take the bait.”

“He’s not as clever or ruthless as his old man, but he’s not entirely brainless. I told you they wouldn’t fall for this.”

Laurence chuckled softly. “Well, since they didn’t take the bait, we can finally get some peaceful sleep. Let’s head downstairs and rest. We don’t have to wake up too early tomorrow. Just get a good night’s sleep. With Master and Mom around, they’ll be able to deal with things themselves.”

“At least Master got to satisfy her urge to break some bones earlier.”

Noelle was speechless.

“Let’s go.”

With that, Laurence turned and headed downstairs.

Noelle had no choice but to follow him.

There was not a single sound coming from the herb garden. Lilian and Jane had likely anticipated that exact outcome, which was why they had drifted off to sleep without a single care in the world.
