Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 5514

“Thank you for the reminder, Mr. Brown. I won’t accept a blind date like Mr. Tatum. No matter who introduces him to me, if I say no, then it’s a no.”

Everly would have a proper talk with her mother and uncle later.

Even if she had to get married, her partner would be her decision.

Sonny nodded.

Everly continued, “My maternal relatives are always introducing men to me. I’ve rejected countless men and even had people investigate the men they introduced. Not a single one of them was good.”

At first, whenever a relative introduced a man to her, she would have him investigated. Once she found his flaws, she would tell her relatives about them. She thought that doing that would make them give up.

Unfortunately, she was too naive. Not only did they refuse to give up, but they also became even more persistent. They kept introducing so-called excellent men to her. That was when she realized that they were not doing this for her sake at all.

They simply wanted to use her marriage to gain leverage over her. They wanted to make her feel like she owed them a huge favor so they could use that favor later on to make more demands of her.

In the past, Kaden had told her that she could keep in contact with the Zellers, but she should not trust them. In this world, there was no one except him who genuinely wanted what was best for her without ulterior motives.

Even her mother had her own agenda. Maddie always hoped that she would keep helping the Zellers. It was as if Maddie thought that their lives going badly were somehow Everly’s responsibility.

Kaden had complained to Maddie more than once in private, saying she was too sentimental and did not know how to distinguish right from wrong.

He also said that when Everly’s parents were dating, he had not really approved of their relationship. However, it was love at first sight for Ike, and he loved Maddie desperately. Kaden adored his only son, so in the end, he agreed to their marriage.

Maddie was from a wealthy family herself, so Kaden thought that she would mature after getting married, becoming a mother, and managing a household. However…

Knowing what Maddie was like, Kaden did not dare to let Everly grow up under her care.
