Married at First Sight novel (Serenity and Zachary York)

Holden said, “Kathryn, this is a small gift from me and your brothers. We’re family, so of course, we had to visit you in the hospital. I’m getting older and not as strong as I used to be, and I’ve been in the hospital myself recently, so I can’t take care of you. But your brothers are still young and can look after you. If you feel uncomfortable having them here, you can ask your sisters-in-law to come and stay with you. There’s no need to rely on Mr. Fraser all the time—after all, he’s still a stranger.”

Holden stressed the word “stranger,” reminding Kathryn to keep her distance from Pedro. The people at the hospital, unaware of the situation, probably thought Pedro was Kathryn’s husband.

Holden didn’t like Pedro. In fact, he despised the all-around assistant who was always by Clarissa’s side. Don’t be fooled by how friendly he seemed with Mr. Dunn, sometimes even acting like they were brothers. The truth was, Holden hated Mr. Dunn deeply.

Mr. Dunn was more respected by Clarissa than her own husband and was trusted with everything. Clarissa confided in him, while she kept many things secret from Holden. He only knew what Clarissa wanted him to know, and nothing more.

Holden could see the affection in Pedro’s eyes when he looked at Kathryn, and he didn’t want anything to develop between them. To him, Pedro was just a servant to Kathryn.
