Zachary stayed in his room for a while until Serenity came knocking on his door.“Mr. York, Mrs. Lane says that breakfast is ready.”Serenity stood in front of his room door, knocking on the door while shouting for him.However, she silently thought, ‘He’s been in there for a while. Is he not done changing?‘He’s usually swift and decisive, rarely dilly-dallying.‘Oh, except when he wants to send flowers. He’s not swift and decisive when it comes to that.’Zachary opened the door.His shirt was on, but it was still unbuttoned.As soon as he opened the door, Serenity saw his slightly exposed pecs.She was stunned, then said, “It’s time for breakfast, Mr. York.”Zachary paid attention to Serenity’s expression. When he saw that she only froze slightly, he walked away after she finished speaking.He closed the room door again and looked down at his unbuttoned shirt. Did he not expose enough?His wife was not drooling yet.Wait.He seemed to be playing tricks and seducing his
Mrs. Lane smiled when she saw Serenity eat with such enthusiasm. As she watched, she suddenly felt hungry as well. She stopped looking at Zachary and started to eat with gusto.While Mrs. Lane brought the dishes to the kitchen to wash them after the meal, Serenity pulled up a chair and slowly walked to Zachary.Zachary instantly straightened up like a defensive hedgehog.The difference this time was, he was not guarding against her. Instead, he was nervous and had no idea what his wife wanted to do to him.“Mr. York, we have a guest room, but there’s no bed. After we pick Sonny up later, we’ll send Mrs. Lane and Sonny back to the store. We’ll have to go and buy a bed and sheets for her since we can’t let her sleep on the floor.”The hedgehog’s quills flattened at once.“You're the lady of the house. You can arrange it however you like.”Zachary had an important meeting this morning and could not spare the time to accompany Serenity to buy the beddings.“Have you run out of the
Serenity did according to her thoughts.She immediately took out her cell phone and searched online on how to tie a tie.After quickly reading the steps twice, she stuffed her phone back into her pants pocket.She moved forward, grabbed the tie that Zachary held in his hand, and placed it around his neck. “You went back to the room to change your clothes, but you took longer than a girl putting on makeup. You didn’t even wear your tie.”Seeing this, Mrs. Lane tiptoed and went out.She waited for the young couple outside.“Of all the men I know, no one wears suits and ties except for my scumbag brother-in-law. I really have no experience and just learned it from the internet, so I don’t know if I can get it right. Bear with me if I strangle you, okay?”Zachary’s eyes flashed with pleasure as he heard her soft mutters.She had no experience.She never tied a tie for a man before.She even had to surf the Internet on the spot to find the steps.This made him incredibly happy.
However, if she went to work to earn money, she would not have time to spend with him.Liberty sniffled but did not turn back. She moved forward on her bike ferociously.She would be fine once her son’s crying was out of earshot.Serenity carried Sonny to the car. After coaxing him for a long time with Mrs. Lane, the boy finally stopped crying.He refused to sit by himself and nestled in Serenity’s arms. He wrapped his arms around her tightly and muttered pitifully, “...not want me anymore?”He did not speak clearly, so Serenity could not catch what he said at first.She gently pushed the little one away and asked softly, “What did you say?”Sonny looked up at Serenity and asked, “Mommy no want me anymore?”“Who said that? Your mommy only went to work. It’s not because she doesn’t want you. Your mommy will come back every night to accompany you.”Sonny said in grievance, “Daddy said mommy no want me.”Serenity wanted to cuss.‘That scumbag Hank Brown! He doesn’t want Liberty
After leaving Wiltspoon School in his national MPV, he stopped at his usual spot and ordered his bodyguards to drive the MPV while he got into his Rolls Royce.On the way to the company, he called Sam and asked him to arrange for someone to send a booster seat over.To Zachary’s surprise, Elisa was waiting in front of his office building again, but she was not blocking his way anymore.She just quietly stood by the side and watched his car entering the building.It was hard for Elisa to let go of her love for Zachary. She told herself that she would see him again today, and never again.However, if she found out that he was not actually married and only wore the ring to make her give up on him, she would make a comeback.After Zachary’s motorcade drove into the building, the gate of York Corporation closed soon after.When the Rolls Royce was out of her sight, she stood for a while longer before turning around and returning to her car despondently.It took a while before she st
”You’ll be doing me a favor by accepting it. Help a girl out, will you?” Elisa said as she made a playful pleading gesture.The Stone family had plenty of money, but Audrey grew up in an orphanage. Even though it had been decades since she married into a wealthy family, she was still frugal.She hated it when Elisa spent money indiscriminately.Serenity thought, ‘The rich really are willful!’Jasmine felt that she herself was quite extravagant too when it came to shopping, but compared to a true wealthy lady like Elisa, it was likened to comparing an ant to an elephant.“Serenity, who’s that lady?” Elisa asked Serenity after seeing Mrs. Lane.“I hired her to take care of Sonny. Jasmine and I are busy sometimes, and I worry that Sonny might run out of the shop, so I got someone to look after him. That way, we can both be at ease.”Serenity was taking care of another person’s child. Even if he was her nephew, it was a heavy responsibility.She could not afford to be careless when
Serenity patted the back of Elisa’s hand and comforted her. “You’re a good girl, Elisa. Give up the man who doesn’t belong to you, and you’ll find happiness at your next stop.”Elisa pursed her lips. Her eyes reddened, but she stubbornly wiped away the tears at the corners of her eyes and forced a cheerful expression. “Yeah. As long as I want to marry someone, there are plenty of men lining up for my hand in marriage. I don’t have to steal another woman’s man!”Jasmine chimed in, “Isn’t it nice to remain single? You’ll be free and unfettered.”She had not fallen in love with a man before, so she could not imagine Elisa’s pain of not being able to attain her love.Elisa looked at her and thought of something. Her eyes were still red, but she laughed and said, “Ms. Sox got famous in Wiltspoon for lying down on the ground at Mrs. Dawson’s party.“You were really drunk. Thinking about it now, you did that on purpose, right? I heard your family has been nagging you to get married.”Ja
Before Clive had taken over Stone Group, Darrell’s voice was weaker than Audrey’s. The seniors in the company were more than willing to defer to her.It was clear what status Audrey held in Stone Group.“Yes yes yes, I also agree with Elisa.”Jasmine felt that she and Elisa shared the same thoughts.Her mother and aunt had always wanted her to climb up the social ladder.Serenity laughed. “That’s why I found myself a man with similar status and had never expected to marry into a rich family.”Zachary’s salary was a little higher than her income, but he was still a salaryman, so they could be considered to be on the same level.“Since you all say so, ask your husband to arrange the date for me then, Serenity. I’ll meet with his colleague. Maybe this is our fate.”“Sure.”Serenity was quite thrilled to be able to help her friend find happiness.Mrs. Lane was listening in on the trio’s conversation about marriage and agreed with Elisa’s statement.Elisa and Serenity got along w
