Married At First Sight Chapter 4049

Annenburg, Province X.

Several luxury cars pulled up at the entrance of Qaxun Group and came to a stop. The door of the leading Rolls-Royce opened, and a bodyguard stepped out first. The bodyguard stood respectfully, waiting for the passenger in the back seat to exit.

Mr. Labbe, a man over 50 years old but appearing in his early 40s thanks to excellent selfcare, emerged from the car.

Dressed in a tailored white suit and tie, he exuded sophistication, with his attire making him appear slightly younger.

The bodyguards from the following cars quickly exited as well.

They walked briskly behind Mr. Labbe-not only to ensure his safety but also to showcase his status.

Meanwhile, several assistants retrieved numerous gift boxes from the trunks of the other cars.

Mr. Labbe paused at the company's entrance and looked up at the towering 68-story office building before him-a powerful symbol of the Ormond family's influence and success. The Ormond family's empire extended far beyond Qaxun Group. Their businesses spanned multiple industries, and in every sector they entered, they consistently rose to dominate. The Ormond family was immensely wealthy and powerful.

To outsiders, the Ormonds were a coveted prize. Their wealth and status made them a "fat piece of meat," and both ambitious and unambitious individuals alike dreamed of marrying into the family.

The family's two eldest daughters, Elora and Tinsley, were especially desirable. As key figures managing the Ormond family business, they represented capability and intelligence.noveldrama

For any family that succeeded in marrying one of these two women, the benefits would be immeasurable.

Yet, despite countless efforts, no one had managed to win the hearts of these two remarkable women.

The daughters of the Ormond family were not easily pursued.

Some suitors shifted their focus to younger Ormond cousins, particularly those still in college. They believed these younger women, lacking life experience and exposure to society, might be easier to manipulate. However, such schemes inevitably failed.

Because the Ormond family had more daughters than sons, they raised their daughters as strong, capable individuals, ensuring they were independent and astute qualities that made them impervious to manipulation by ordinary rich second-generation heirs. Let alone by the so-called "Phoenix men."

With a strong elder sister like Elora guiding them, all the Ormond daughters grew up cautious and chaste, particularly wary of men from other families.

The Labbe family from Havenmill naturally set their sights on the Ormond sisters.

After finding Elora difficult to pursue, they turned their attention to Tinsley, assuming she might be more approachable.

However, Mr. Labbe, the acting head of the Labbe family, was keenly aware of his limitations.

No matter how well he maintained his appearance, it didn't change the fact that he was over 50 years old.

Having faced setbacks with both Elora and Tinsley last year, Mr. Labbe devised a new strategy.

Instead of pursuing the sisters himself, he decided to focus on arranging a marriage between his eldest son and Tinsley.

His eldest son was the same age as Tinsley, and Mr. Labbe believed that people of the same generation could connect more easily.

Mr. Labbe placed great value on his eldest son. Although he kept many women outside his marriage, he never allowed any of them to threaten the position of his wife-the mother of his children.

The children born to his wife were all grown adults.

His wife had been a steadfast partner, even helping him handle affairs with women he grew tired of. With her support and that of her family, Mr. Labbe successfully navigated many challenges. As a result, despite his dalliances, he never considered replacing her. The only exception, in his eyes, would be if he could marry Elora or Tinsley. He believed that only these two young women possessed the skills, power, and status to rival his wife.
