Married at First Sight novel (Serenity and Zachary York)

Married At First Sight Chapter 3974 Chapter 3974

Even if Evan was serious about pursuing Abby again, she wasn't going to rush into anything. She needed time to think, even though a part of her still had feelings for him.

Evan, meanwhile, had overheard her phone conversation with Mrs. Du. He knew Mrs. Du was trying to match Abby with a man named Spencer, making it clear that he now had competition. When Abby firmly asked him to leave, Evan didn't argue or linger stubbornly. Instead, he rose to his feet with quiet composure.

"I'm sorry for disturbing you, Miss Du," he said, his tone steady but sincere. "I know you're Abby, the second daughter of the Du family, and I know exactly what I'm doing.

Abby's heart wavered slightly at his words.

The first time, she had offered him her heart, only for Evan to reject it. That was his mistake. Now, it was his turn to prove himself, to lay his heart bare.

This wasn't going to be easy, and Evan knew it. Winning her back would take time, but he was determined to persist.

Zachary's situation was... unique. For the rest of us, she gave us the freedom to build relationships and only get married when we were ready. That's not what this is about."
