Chapter 1120
Mrs. Newman would have everything sorted if they were faced with an ordinary person.
It was a different story because the person they were targeting was Mrs. York.
“No. Did Mr. Newman come looking for you?”
“Yes. He came with gifts to apologize again, but I wouldn’t meet with him. I told Callum to handle it.”
Since Callum would have to engage with the Newmans in the near future, he could use the practice by dealing with
the matter.
Poor Callum.
“I wouldn’t be so kind as to forgive Carrie even if Mrs. Newman came to me. To be kind to the enemy is to be cruel
to myself.
“The feud between Carrie and I is past reconciliation.”
Serenity took Camryn’s side too, and Carrie had it in for Camryn. The fact that they took different stands
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtdetermined that they were on opposing sides.
“No need to patch things up with her. She’s spoiled and thinks she should get her way in everything. She’ll always
hold a grudge even if you forgive her. She’ll get even with you every chance she gets. There’s no point resolving
things with someone who doesn’t think they’re wrong.”
Zachary showed his tyrannical side. “Don’t worry about it, Seren. You have me. I won’t let my wife be wronged. No
need to be scared or grovel to anyone!”
Serenity uttered with a smile, “Even if I’m not your wife, I have my principles. Why should I relent when I did
nothing wrong? If she can do it to me, she can do the same to anyone. I got the law to punish her. While it might
not change her attitude, it could serve as a lesson. to stop her from playing with lives.”
Putting on a solemn face, Serenity added, “I just hope you don’t think I overstep my boundaries and give you
problems.”
Zachary nibbled on her face. “I don’t think so. I’m happy to clean up after you and take away your problems for a
lifetime.”
“You talk as if I often get myself into trouble.”
Zachary chuckled.
“I need to talk to you about something. My grandparents spread some rumors in my hometown, saying that my dad
isn’t their son. Apparently, they found him somewhere and raised him. They said my dad should be grateful that
they raised him, but he died before he could repay my grandparents, so they deserved my dad’s inheritance.”
Zachary asked, “Do you need help to investigate whether your father is their biological son?”
“I have no doubt my dad is their son. My dad has an uncanny resemblance to Granddad and the only explanation
for this is their blood relation.”
Serenity never doubted that her father was not a Hunt.
“I would believe them if they dragged me to do a DNA test to prove we’re not related. Otherwise, it’s all a ruse.”
Zachary fell silent for a moment before uttering, “You can never be too sure about things. Some people might look
alike even though they are not related by blood. Have you read the news? There’s a child who resembles a wealthy
man, but they’re not related at all.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Your father might look like Old Mr. Hunt, but they might not be biologically related. No parents would be so
emotionally detached as your grandparents were from your father and mother. There’s a possibility that they found
and raised your father.”
Serenity remarked, “The townspeople would know if it’s true. Many from the older generation are still around. My
sister and I have never heard anything about my dad not being their biological son.”
Pursing his lips, Zachary said, “You probably don’t know that Ben’s wife, Jane, was adopted by the Murphy family.
The Murphies had a daughter and intended the name for their daughter, but their daughter fell sick and left the
world. They found Ben’s wife when their daughter passed away.
“They brought her home to replace their daughter. Since both girls were of the same age, the townspeople had no
idea of the switcheroo. They always thought Ben’s wife was the Murphies’ biological daughter.”
Serenity commented, “Do you think this is the same case with my dad?”
Zachary answered, “Yeah. There’s no harm in looking into it. They must be really biased parents if your dad turns
out to be their biological son. If he isn’t, then it would explain their attitude.”
“Why bother with an investigation? Just ask Noah to get here. I’ll do a DNA test with him. The test should still show
something since we have the same grandfather.”
Poor Noah. He was always the first person to pop into Serenity’s head.
