“Your sister…” Mrs. Stone felt that Liberty was always having a rough time in relationships. She bit her tongue mid-sentence.“Mr. Lewis still doesn’t want to meet Liberty?” Mrs. Stone asked concernedly.“He didn’t want to meet Zachary and I when we went to visit him. Zachary texted him, but Duncan didn’t reply or answer any calls. He led himself down a blind alley, always assuming that we’re just taking pity on him.”Mrs. Stone let out a sigh.Elisa and Remy came in while holding hands. After Mrs. Stone took a glimpse of him, Remy let go of Elisa’s hand.His future mother-in-law had yet to accept him. Therefore, he did not want to be intimate with Elisa in front of Mrs. Stone.After Elisa asked Remy to take a seat, she walked away with the bouquet of flowers and put it in a big vase. She also brought the jewelry that Remy gave her into her room.When she headed downstairs, everyone was chatting merrily.It was mainly because of Sonny’s presence. Mrs. Stone was afraid of leadin

However, Jenna said seriously, “Goodbye, Mr. York.”Zachary was in a sulk.Jenna liked his cold look. Having been staying by her father’s side, she had seen many big bosses and rich young men. It was her first time seeing such an outstanding man like Zachary.She was not bothered about how Zachary engaged in business. All she cared about was his looks.He was handsome and cold. Seeing him gave her the urge to conquer him.She wanted to conquer this man.Jenna did not mind Zachary’s silence. After Mr. Daniels bade goodbye to Zachary, she followed her father to their car.Once the chauffeur pulled open the door, Mr. Daniels and Jenna got into the car.Mr. Daniels pressed down on the window button to wave and say goodbye to Zachary again.Zachary waved at Mr. Daniels.The Danielses’ luxury car left Wiltspoon Hotel shortly.“Jenna, what did you do to Mr. York just now? His face instantly darkened.”Mr. Daniels pressed the window button before he turned his head to his beloved d

“Jim, what did you see just now?” Zachary, who was silent, suddenly asked.Jim answered without hesitation, “I saw Ms. Daniels stroke your palm.”With that, he became conscious of what he had just said. He quickly changed his answer. “No, no, boss. I didn’t see anything. Really, I saw nothing.”Considering Zachary’s brilliance, he could easily win young women’s hearts. In order to avoid trouble, he had been bringing along bodyguards whose main job was to stop young women from approaching him. They did not expect this accident to happen tonight.From the way Ms. Daniels looked at Zachary, she had an ulterior purpose.“From now onward, all young women, except my family, must keep a distance of ten feet from me.”Zachary felt the need to behave like he did back then whereby he made all young women, except his family members, stay ten feet away from him.He thought that everyone was aware of his marriage with Serenity, so no one would have an interest in him.He was wrong.Someo

“Sam, I didn’t hear or see anything. I’m going to take a rest now.”Ultimately, Jim dared not tell Sam that a client’s daughter was interested in Zachary and flirted with him. Jim ran like the wind.“B*stard.”After scolding Jim, Sam turned his eyes to the chauffeur.The chauffeur said with a yawn, “Sam, I really didn’t see anything. I didn’t hear what Mr. Zachary said as well. I was focusing on my drive.“Sam, it’s getting late. You should go and rest. Good night.”With that, the chauffeur strode away.Other bodyguards did not have the slightest idea what was going on. Jim was the one who was in the same car as Zachary. If Jim did not reveal it, no one would know.Feeling helpless, Sam went back to the house.Zachary did not stay on the ground floor. He had gone upstairs.Once he arrived at the study, he gently knocked on the door.Perhaps Serenity was so absorbed in her work that she did not notice what was happening outside. She was unaware that Zachary had returned. When

It was not related to work.Again, Serenity asked Zachary with her pretty eyes glowing, “What’s it then? Tell me. We’re a couple. We shouldn’t hide anything from each other. As you said, you’ll never hide anything from me no matter what it is.”“Honey.”Zachary said in a low voice, “Someone flirted with me.”Serenity was speechless.Her eyes widened, and her mouth agape.Did she mishear him?Someone actually dared to flirt with Zachary?When he was outside, he always looked sulky, signaling others not to approach him. There were bodyguards who followed him around to stop strangers from approaching him.How was it possible that someone flirted with him?Unless that was a man.With such a thought, Serenity asked, “Was it a man? Was it a gay who showed interest in you?”She felt that he would only allow people of his gender to approach him, which explained why that person had the opportunity to flirt with him.After being quiet for a moment, he replied in a deep tone, “It was

Toward the end of her sentence, Serenity’s smile faded. She said, “Hank and Jessica’s case is a good example. Of course, Jessica isn’t to blame completely. Much of the blame rests with Hank.”Karma had hit Jessica now.However, it had yet to hit Hank.Zachary showed a pathetic look and said, “Honey, I don’t care. I belong to you. You need to protect me. Don’t allow anyone to take advantage of me.”“Alright, I’ll protect you. I’ll keep you company at any social function you attend. I’ll announce my ownership of you to everyone. Zachary fully belongs to Serenity. If anyone has the audacity to snatch my man, I’ll beat them up.”“Honey, why do you sound as though you’re comforting a child?”“How should I say it then?”Zachary stopped speaking.Serenity kissed him on the cheek. After that, she hugged him with her upper body lying on his chest. With a soft voice, she said, “Babe, don’t be angry. I’ll walk the talk. I’ll keep you company at every social function to prevent others from

At least, this was Serenity’s innermost feeling.It was better than all other poetic phrases that she copied from elsewhere.There was a message at the back of the paper.He turned it over.[I’m jogging outside. Let’s have breakfast together later.]Zachary folded the letter joyfully and put it back into the envelope. After that, he slid open the drawer and placed the love letter inside.He got up and walked toward the window. Once he pulled open the thick and heavy curtains, the sunlight shone in.The morning sun in summer was dazzling. Once the hot summer was over, the cool fall would come, which was also time for Zachary and Serenity’s wedding.Zachary was more eager for the arrival of the baby that belonged to him and Serenity.The psychic told the couple decidedly that their baby would come in the fall. No matter how much the two of them loved each other, the baby would not come until it was fall season.Ben from FC & Co. now had a son and a daughter, which made Zachar

Without much hesitation, Serenity answered, “Okay. Liberty goes to the hospital to look after Mr. Lewis whenever she’s free. Mrs. Lewis was the one who begged her to do so.”Zachary was not surprised. Considering Duncan’s current condition, Mrs. Lewis deeply regretted her actions. She would not even mind kneeling down to beg Liberty as long as Duncan could recover.“Is Duncan willing to meet Liberty?” Zachary asked concernedly.“I didn’t ask Liberty. But she’s insistent on looking after Duncan. She must have a way to get into the ward.”She would sneak in, by hook or by crook. Sure enough, Serenity and Liberty were sisters. Serenity knew her sister very well.Zachary replied, “I hope Duncan doesn’t overthink things and gets well soon.”Comparing Duncan’s previous and current states, Zachary could identify with Duncan. If it were Zachary, he would have difficulty regaining confidence as well.“He’ll recover.”Serenity said to him, “Let’s jog two more rounds. After Sonny wakes
