Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary)

Did You See Everything Maria staggered forward. Each passing second, her vision became more and more blurred. Fortunately, she still managed to get to the area just outside the comfort rooms. With her consciousness quickly fading, she held onto the shared sink with both her hands. Then, she turned the faucet on for some water. But to her surprise, nothing flowed out. She thought that this was such a sick joke. Jade Hotel was known as the most luxurious hotel in Sheffield. How could there be no water in the sink? This was so unacceptable.

A second later, from the comer of her eye, she vaguely saw a sign beside the sink which read, “UNDER REPAIR. What an unlucky coincidence. However, she couldn't just give up. Maria had to do something before she completely lost her consciousness. Still able to think, she tried to go inside the comfort room, knowing that there should be a sink in both the men’s and ladies* rooms. But she was really dizzy at this point. She couldn't determine which side was the ladies ‘room.

Not able to clearly process things anymore, Maria just went with her gut, chose a side, and barged inside. She had no time to care whether it was the ladies‘ room or not.

Inside the comfort room, she rushed to the sink and turned the faucet on. Finally, a cold stream of water gushed out, and she was able to stimulate her facial nerves with it. After constantly splashing water on her face for a while, Maria's sleepiness eventually dissipated, and she became fully awake again. However, from her peripheral vision, she seemed to catch a glimpse of a person standing in front of the urinal nearest to her.

At this moment, Maria's eyes widened.

Wait! A urinal?! It meant that she actually barged into the men’s room, and someone was there, witnessing her stupid mistake.

The man in front of the urinal looked pretty tall and was wearing a suit. However, Maria was slightly confused upon seeing an electric wheelchair beside him. What was it for? But of course, she didn't have time to think about it. She was in the wrong restroom, and she had to get out of there as soon as possible. Moreover, the atmosphere had already started to get awkward. She couldn't help but wonder what the man was thinking of her. Without saying a word, Maria tried to walk out as if nothing happened. “Did you see everything?” The man called from behind Maria and asked an unexpected question. Hearing this, Maria couldn't help but stop in her tracks.

She couldn't believe that this was what he was going to ask her. Oh, how embarrassed she was. What was this person thinking? Couldn't he just ignore her instead? Clearly, she didn't intend to go inside the men's room on purpose. However, feeling that the man wouldn't get off her back, she gritted her teeth and sneered coldly. “Yes, | saw it. Are you going to hold me responsible just because | did?” After saying that, Maria went out of the comfort room without looking back. She used to be very composed, but now, her pace was somehow hurried. A moment after Maria left, the man smirked and sat back in his electric wheelchair. He took his time very well before he came out. At the same time, Maria didn‘t return to the cafe right away. Because she splashed water on her face, her collar had also got wet and she had to fix herself first. Otherwise, she wouldn't hear the end of it from Bill. Thus, she went to the ladies‘ room and made sure she looked decent enough before walking back to the cafe. “Oh, there she is.” Seeing that Maria was finally back, Bill pointed at her while letting out an unprecedented kind smile.

“Maria, I'm glad you're here already. Let me introduce this gentleman to you. This is... Wait. What's wrong with you?” Before Bill could finish introducing Anthony to her, he noticed that Maria was flummoxed, as if she just saw a ghost. Although Maria had only taken a glance at that man she ran into in the men‘s comfort room, she immediately recognized that he was the same guy who was sitting face to face with Bill right now.

After all, she wouldn't be mistaken by something more obvious. This guy was sitting on the same electric wheelchair that she saw back there.

“No... It's nothing.” Although Maria looked very stunned for a few seconds, her eyes immediately returned to being calm.

Regaining her composure, she sat down as if the incident in the restroom didn‘t happen. Since the man across the table remained silent about it, Maria also didn‘t say a thing. In fact, only Bill was the one talking all this time.

“Oh, okay. As | was saying, this is Mr. Anthony Wilson; and this is my daughter Mana. Mr. Wilson, I'm aware that the marriage between you and my daughter was decided by your grandfather. However, I'm afraid he didn‘t know that | actually have two daughters. You must already know Vivian since she is an actress. On the other hand, Maria was raised in the town | come from, and she is actually my elder daughter. Because we were not able to talk about it at length, there might have been some misunderstandings. Instead of Maria, | think your grandpa believed that Vivian was going to be your fiancee. Even you must know the tradition. The elder daughter should be married first, so | hope you have no problem with that. Besides, Maria is an outstanding girl. | do believe that you won't have an issue with her. Ha-ha...” Bill let out a nervous chuckle but still kept on talking without stopping. On the other hand, Maria couldn't help but scoff subtly. The Wilson family was one of the richest and most powerful families in Sheffield. She wondered if Bill was really expecting that he could fool them. Although it seemed that he was the one dominating the conversation, in fact, he was in a passive position. No matter how hard he sold Maria, whether the engagement would go on or not was completely up to Anthony.

Being deliberately toyed with by the Jenkins family, Maria assumed that Bill was only — making Anthony angry.

“It's fine.” At this time, Maria was instantly dragged back from her thoughts the moment she heard Anthony's voice. The handsome man in the wheelchair seemed to be very gentle, but Maria could detect a cunning smile on his face.

“Miss Maria, right? You don't have to worry, Mr. Jenkins. | am in favor of this arrangement.” mmMwWLIII0fifl0&1 mmMwWLIII0fifl0&1 mmMwWLII0fiflO& 1 mmMwWLIII0fifl0&1 mmMwWL1i10fif10&1 mmMwWLIiI0fiflO&1
