In the end, he stood up, turned around, and ran. Serenity went after him and swept him to the ground with a single kick. Then, she grabbed his shirt roughly and dragged him back, causing him to scream in pain again as his skin grazed the ground. After throwing him at the group of punks, she warned them,” I advise you to stay here obediently and wait for the police to rescue you. If anyone dares to run, don’t blame me for being impolite.” The punks were frightened by Serenity’s ferocity. No one dared to run again.
Noah kept cursing at Serenity, and she warned him with a dark expression, “One more word out of you and I’ll beat you till your face swells up like a balloon.”
Noah was terrified and he instantly fell silent, not daring to curse at her anymore. However, he cursed at her ancestors in his heart.
Serenity’s ancestors were also Noah’s ancestors. Their ancestors must be rolling in their graves. They could not wait to welcome the descendant who was cursing at them.
Zachary saw that Serenity had the complete upper hand. He did not even have the chance to save the damsel in distress. Of course, even if Serenity was in danger, he would not show up. At most, he would arrange for bodyguards other than Jim to go and help her beat the thugs up.
He knew Serenity learned mixed martial arts before, but he was not aware of her skills.
To think I was worried about her just now.
‘Those punks couldn’t even touch her.’ “Drive,” Zachary commanded in a low voice. “Jim, don’t let her see you.”
Jim had sent him home twice, so Serenity remembered how he looked. Thus, he could not let her see Jim.
The driver started driving again. In order to prevent Serenity from recognizing him, Jim turned his head and looked at the other side of the road before turning back only when they had passed by Serenity. The driver drove much faster now so Zachary’s car sped past before Serenity could see anything clearly. Furthermore, she was not familiar with the bodyguards’ cars that followed behind.
Shortly after Zachary’s motorcade passed, the cops arrived. After a little interrogation, the policemen sympathetically picked up those thugs on the ground and led them to the patrol car.
They blocked the road and threatened to assault Serenity, but they were beaten up instead. Serenity had to follow them to the station to make a statement.
With footage from the dashcam and traffic monitoring, the thugs were on their best behavior when they arrived at the station and confessed to everything. Serenity was the victim, but she learned mixed martial arts and knew how to defend herself, so she did not get hurt.
Thus, she only acted in self-defense.
After making the statement, she could leave.
As for Noah and the others, they could not leave and were detained.
Even though Noah mentioned that Serenity and he were cousins, and it was just a family conflict, he was still detained because Serenity refused to forgive him.
Noah thought, ‘I wanted to get revenge on Serenity, but I ended up in a cell instead.’
When Serenity got home, it was already one in the morning.
The house was dark when she pushed the door open. Either Zachary did not come back, or he was in his room. Serenity silently closed the door, locked it, and turned on the lights in the hall. After a minute of silence, she went to Zachary’s room. She was just about to raise her hand to knock on the door before she remembered that it was already late at night, and Nana had mentioned that Zachary would be furious if he was awakened before his natural body clock woke him up.
She dismissed the idea of knocking on the door. So what if he was at home? They were having a cold war. She finally turned around and went into her room. The night passed without a word. The next morning, Serenity was catching up on her sleep because she went to bed too late last night.
Zachary, who went back to Regent Residences, woke up as usual. He changed into sportswear and prepared to go out for a morning run.
When he went downstairs, Sam told him, “Mr. Zachary, Old Mrs. York is here.” Zachary’s expression sank slightly at the words. Without stopping his feet, he walked out of the main house at a steady pace and saw his nana stepping out of the car. Although he did not like his nana’s sudden intrusion into his life, he quickly walked over to help her. The old lady did not refuse his thoughtfulness. Seeing his sportswear, she asked him, “Going for a morning run?”
“Yeah.”
“Grandma will run a few laps with you.” Zachary frowned. “Nana, you’re getting old.”
“I’m still as healthy as a horse.”
Zachary was helpless. Since his grandmother insisted on running with him, he had to give in.
The pair walked out of the villa together and jogged on the cement track in the neighborhood. Although the woman was old, she was in the pink of health. When she was at home, she sometimes worked in the fields together with the workers.
She was an old lady who never put on airs, and all the workers in York Manor adored her.
“You were living well in Brynfield. Why did you move back again?”
In fact, Old Mrs. York came over because she received news that there was a problem between her eldest grandson and Serenity. However, she did not know what the problem was. Callum only mentioned that Zachary had been a bit distracted lately.
She heard from Sam that Zachary moved back to the villa. She was hoping that sparks would fly between the newlyweds and wanted them to become a real couple, so she rushed over to see if she could mediate the young couple’s conflict.
“I’m more used to living here.” This large villa was bought by Zachary after he became an adult, and he had been living in it ever since. Apart from the old residence, this place was his second home.
As for the other villas under his name, he would stay there when there was a need. Most of the time, he would return to Regent Residences.
“Did you fight with Serenity?” The old lady asked her eldest grandson who was beside her as she slowed down to a walk.
