Married at First Sight

Chapter

4500

River had never told anyone about his poor sense of direction. Even his family didn't know.

But hey, these days, almost everyone used navigation. It wasn't a big deal. "Miss Lafond, are you sure this won't take up your time?" Serenity asked. "Not at all. I haven't been out in a while anyway. Sister Seren, I'll meet you at Eaglioncile Hotel."

Eaglioncile Hotel was a famous landmark, and since they had originally met there, Romina suggested it again.

Serenity said, "Okay then, I'll take you up on it."

Romina replied warmly, "Sister Seren, I felt such a connection with you the

moment we met.

Like we've known each other for years. No need to be so formal with me." Serenity smiled. "I felt the same. See you soon."

Women who clicked like that on a first meeting usually ended up becoming her sisters-in-law. Serenity figured maybe this was fate bringing them together.

All her sisters-in-law had strong family backgrounds and were great matches for the York family. She was the only one who married up-but they all still respected her as the eldest sister-in-law.

Now that she had gradually taken over the responsibilities of the family matriarch from her mother-in-law, her sisters-in-law respected her even more and worked well with her.

They were all working toward the same goal: maintaining the York family's traditions and creating a stable, warm home for the next generation.noveldrama

After ending the call, Serenity turned to River. "Romina said to meet her at Eaglioncile Hotel.

River, when you see her, don't argue again. Be the bigger person."

River muttered, "As long as she doesn't pick a fight, I won't either."

Serenity raised an eyebrow. "She's nice to everyone. The moment we met, she called me Sister Seren and treated me like family. But when it comes to you? Totally different story."

She continued, "And don't act like you're any better. You're usually so polite and calm-more so than your older brother, even. But around Romina, you're a completely different person."

"You two only show your worst sides to each other. River, if you tried being gentle with her, she'd probably freak out, thinking you're plotting something."

River was speechless.

Should he try a new strategy?

Maybe his sister-in-law was right. If he suddenly became nice to Romina, she'd definitely think he was up to something big.

That evening, River took Serenity, her nephews, and the kids out for dinner.

After dinner, they waited in the hotel lobby for about half an hour.

Around 8 p.m., Romina showed up.

The moment she saw River, she frowned.

Before she could say anything, River smiled gently and greeted her, "Romina, good evening."

Romina took a step forward-then immediately paused.

She took a few steps back instead, eyeing him suspiciously.

Did she hear that right?

Was she hallucinating?

Or had this guy been possessed?

He actually greeted her... and in such a soft, warm tone?

She was seriously creeped out.
