Married at First Sight –
Chapter 5158
“Josh is quite good.”
Titus spoke up for Josh after a moment of silence.
York also paused for a moment, then sighed and said, “That’s true. Besides him, I’m afraid no one would dare to marry our Belle.”
“That won’t be the case. My master really likes Belle and has said countless times that he wants to arrange a marriage between your family. It’s Avah who has the same feelings I have for Belle. Maybe it’s because we grew up together and developed a sibling-like bond.”
Lillian Johnson really liked Belle and wanted to send her son to Serenity’s house so that Serenity could raise Avah as her son-in-law, allowing Avah and Belle to grow up together and be childhood sweethearts.
In the past, elders thought that if children played together and developed deep bonds, their paths would be easier when they grew up. Their bonds were indeed deep, but they were all familial, sibling-like, without romantic feelings.
Lillian Johnson always said to Avah, “Why doesn’t Avah like the beautiful and lovely Belle?”Avah said that he did like Belle, but his liking was very pure. He had no intention of marrying her. He also said that Belle had eighteen brothers, and he didn’t dare marry her— he was afraid of being beaten up by all eighteen of them.
He joked that if each brother punched him once, he would have to endure eighteen punches.
It left Lillian Johnson both amused and speechless.
With the Johnson family being so large, and with brothers, uncles, and nephews all united and living in harmony, even Avah didn’t dare to harbor thoughts about Belle. That made it even more impossible for other men.
Those who wanted to curry favor with the York family didn’t dare entertain such ideas either. They knew the York family was not to be messed with, and they also knew that the York family’s only little princess was not a love-brained girl. The men around her were all exceptionally outstanding.
Ordinary men were simply not good enough for Belle.
Josh was different. From a very young age, he had already told his best friends that when he grew up, he would marry Belle and cherish her for a lifetime.
And the boy thought that way—and acted that way too.
For the past twenty years, he had truly treated Belle as his wife, doting on her and protecting her. No matter how the York family brothers treated him, he never wavered from his original intention. The elders of both families did not interfere, allowing things to develop naturally.The butler quickly brought fruit, snacks, and a pot of freshly brewed tea.
“The ninth.”Titus remained seated, calling out to Hank Brown.
Hank Brown immediately rose and approached, respectfully greeting, “Young Master.”
“I want some tea. Try this pot of tea and see how it’s brewed,”
Titus instructed.
The butler was about to pour tea for Titus when York glanced at him, signaling with his eyes that he should go back to his work and not get in the way.
The butler realized his mistake, smiled, and quietly withdrew from the pavilion, leaving the place to Miss Long.
Hank Brown picked up three teacups, arranged them, and then picked up the teapot. She poured herself a cup of tea, took two slow sips, savored it, and then finished the rest.
Afterward, she placed the teacup on the corner of the table, as it was the one she had used, and she wanted to put it aside to prevent the young master from taking the wrong cup.
“Young Master, the tea is quite good,”
Hank Brown said softly.
Titus said, “You’ve only had such a small cup. How can you taste the tea? Drink a couple more cups before you tell me.”
Hank Brown paused for a moment, then took back her teacup and poured herself two more cups of tea.
After finishing the third cup, she placed the teacup back in the corner, her expression respectful, and said in a firm tone, “Young Master, that’s fine.”
Titus then hummed in agreement.
She poured a cup of tea for both Titus and York, and was about to retreat to the corner when Titus called her back.
“Try each of these fruits, see if they’re fresh. Also, try the pastries and see if they’re good. Tell me after you’ve tried them,”
Titus instructed again.
