Chapter 572 – The Disguised Billionaire and His Accidental Wife Novel Free Online

“If you’re not used to wearing high heels, just wear flats in the future. You’re already quite tall. You’ll still be taller than others without wearing heels.” Zack did not want his beloved wife to torture her feet

“Aunt Audrey will glare at you if she heard you say that.”

Zack laughed. “Your aunt has always been a stern person. She mellowed out considerably after retiring, but it’ll still be hard on you because you asked her to teach you. However, she’s still your aunt and is doing it for your own good. If you can bear the hardships, the lessons you learn from her will serve you for the rest of your life.”

Serena walked to the sofa and sat down.

Zack followed and propped her feet up, then started to massage them.

Serena tried to stop him and said, “You’re the high and mighty Mr. York, the

CEO of York Corporation.”

“In front of you, I’m just your husband. My wife tortured her feet with her muchhated stilettos for an entire night for me. Who can stop me from pampering her a little when she gets back?”

After hearing his domineering yet sweet words, Serena did not stop him from massaging her feet.

“I met Camryn Newman tonight.”

Serena took the initiative to tell him when he did not ask.

“Who’s Camryn Newman?”

Zack focused on massaging Serena and did not even raise his head. He could not care less who Camryn was.

“Didn’t you see her picture earlier? She’s really pretty, but her face is a little small. The large shades she always wears take up more than half of her face, making her look even smaller. The way she speaks is soft and wispy.”

Zack paused in his movements and looked up at his beloved wife, saying defensively, “When did I see her photo? I’m not interested in any other woman besides you. I don’t even want to look at photos of other women.”

Serena was amused. “I’m not being jealous. Why are you so nervous? Camryn is the wife candidate Nana picked for Callum. Didn’t you see her photo too when you passed it to me?”

“I just glanced at it and don’t remember her face… Why would I remember her face or name if she’s not my wife candidate?”

He continued to massage her legs.

“It turns out that Camryn is blind. Zack, why did Nana pick a blind person for

Callum? She picked me, a country bumpkin, for you, but at least I’m healthy. On the other hand, she picked a lady from a wealthy family for Callum, but she’s blind. Besides, it seems the Newman family doesn’t treat Camryn well.”

Zack said faintly, “Nana has her reasons. She selects her granddaughters-inlaw according to our characters.”

Grandma May asking him to marry Serena might be because of the simplest reason-a fortune teller said that Serena and he were destined to be husband and wife.

Now, Zack believed in those words. If he had the chance, he wanted to meet that fortune teller and ask if Serena and he could be husband and wife in their next lives too.

If the fortune teller were here, he would say, “You’re only destined to be husband and wife in this life. Don’t be too greedy. Live your current life well before worrying about your next life.”

A next life?

Nobody knew if there was a next life in the first place.

People die when their lives come to an end. Like a candle being snuffed out, there would be nothing left.

No one knew if reincarnation existed. People who knew and experienced it were already dead, so there was no answer.

‘That’s true. I guess that’s something Callum will have to deal with. Has he started yet?”

“I don’t think so, but he visits Josh’s office whenever he has the time. He’s probably asking Josh to help get information about that Newman girl. He’ll only start moving when he gets a background check on her.”

“Did you also do a background check on me?” Serena suddenly asked.

After a moment of silence, Zack replied, “Yes, but I trust my eyes and feelings more. That was why I concealed my identity to examine your character.”

“Given your character, you wouldn’t agree to marry me either if you didn’t get a background check on me. Why did you still suspect me of going after you for your money?”

“I was afraid that the investigation was wrong.”

Serena was speechless.

“Marriage is a life-long event. Women are afraid of marrying the wrong man, but the same goes for men. I have to get along with you personally before knowing what you’re really like. A background check is just a few lines of summary.”

“Yes, marriage is a life-long event. It seems we were both too hasty.”

Serena sighed, but said gratefully, “Fortunately, we fell in love with each other.”

If she could do it all over again, she would probably make a different choice.

“Keep going, Seren. I’ll listen to the story.” Zack did not want to talk about the time when their marriage was hidden because those were the days he lied to her.

If not for the fact that she was softhearted because he hurt his stomach after starving himself unintentionally, the couple’s relationship would still be frozen now.

That was why he was afraid to bring up the topic of him concealing his identity and lying to her.

He could avoid raking up the past by returning the topic to Camryn.

“Camryn has a sister who’s a few years younger than her called Carrie.

Carrie is quite pretty too, but her personality is horrible. She actually spiked a glass of wine and asked Camryn to send a bouquet of flowers over, then forced

Camryn to drink the drugged wine in exchange for the payment for the flowers.

“Elisa and I saw the entire process. We’ve never seen such a horrid sister before. I couldn’t help but intervene, and we ended up making Carrie drink the wine instead. Boy, did that drug kick in quick. In just a few minutes, Carrie said she was feeling hot and tried to strip.

“Mrs. Newman is as biased as my grandparents. Camryn is also her daughter, and she takes after her mother more than Carrie does. However, Mrs. Newman only blamed Camryn and even tried to slap her, but I pulled her away.

“Carrie is too vicious. She tried to ruin Camryn’s life. If I didn’t butt in and let

Camryn drink the wine… She would’ve lost her rationality after the drug kicked

No matter whose hands she fell into, it’d be devastating for her.

“Camryn is the wife Nana picked for Callum, so we’ll be sisters-in-law in the future. It’d be fine if I didn’t know, but since I do, I have to protect her. How can a missus of the York family be bullied by others?”

Zack said faintly, “Camryn Newman was born to Mrs. Newman and her first husband. When her husband died, she remarried, and her current husband is the elder brother of her late husband. In other words, she remarried her brotherin-law.”

Serena paused. “Even so, she can’t treat her eldest daughter that way.”

“Nana must have had her reasons for picking Camryn. She probably knows something we don’t. Matching Camryn with Callum might also be to help her.”

‘What does Nana know?”

Serena was very curious.

Zack thought about it and said, “If my guess is correct, the death of

Camryn’s father might not be as simple as it appeared to be.” Serena was shocked.

“Waters run deep in wealthy families. They can do anything for the sake of their interests, but don’t worry, Seren. Our family isn’t like that. Even if I paid someone in our family to take my spot as the head, they wouldn’t want to.”

Serena believed in Zack’s words.

She met her in-laws several times. Whether it was her elders or peers, they were all good people. The only person who was a little prejudiced against her and was not satisfied with her was her mother-in-law, but the latter still did not do anything to harm her.

When she was angry at Zack, her mother-in-law accompanied Grandma May to apologize to her instead of taking the opportunity to tell Zack to divorce her.

Perhaps to Tania, although she cared about what her daughter-in-law’s background was, her son’s feelings and happiness were more important than that.
