“Well, don’t give me any more living allowances for the year since you already got me a car.”
Zachary lifted his chin and stared at her without saying yes or no.
Serenity took his silence as his affirmation on the matter. It was a weight off her shoulder as she believed she owed him nothing now.
“Pay no mind to your relatives for now. They might stick to their guns now, but it won’t last long. They’ll apologize to you. You and your sister can bring your grandparents to court over your parents’ house.
You should make them pay half if not all.
“No need to go soft on people who prey on you and walk all over you.”
If Zachary had a choice, he would make the Hunts’ lives a living hell.
This was Serenity’s personal business. He could offer suggestions on what to do, but ultimately, it was her choice to make.
“I’ll go to court to repossess my parents’ home after Grandmom’s surgery.” “Okay,” Zachary answered. They were her grandparents after all. Serenity tried to show a bit of leniency as they were still family.
After breakfast, Serenity went into the kitchen and brought out two containers. She said, “Most of the breakfast is untouched, so I’ll pack it up for you. You can bring it with you to the office and have it when you’re hungry. We shouldn’t waste food.”
Zachary pulled a long face as he believed bringing packed lunch to the office was beneath him as the CEO.
“I’m full. I don’t need any packed lunch.” “Okay then. I’ll bring the food to the shop. Jasmine loves my breakfast, and Shawn too. He’d usually pass by the shop on his way to work. I’ll text him now to drop by for breakfast on his way to work.” She should never go heavy on making breakfast ever again. Despite knowing that Serenity’s feelings for Shawn were restricted to friendship, the mention of Shawn still put Zachary in a foul mood. He fell silent for a while before making the sacrifice.” Give me the packed food. Callum’s working in the same office too. I’ll bring him some.”
It was better than letting Shawn have it.
“Don’t make too much food even if it’s just to thank me. It’s just the two of us. How many are you trying to feed?” Serenity always had a huge appetite, but she had overdone herself today. She would not be
able to finish all that food alone.
“Callum, is it? Yes. Share the food with him.”
Zachary’s younger brothers and cousins struck quite an impression with Serenity. It was mainly because they
were charming hunks in their own way.
Who would forget a beautiful face? “Sure,” Zachary responded.
After putting food into the containers , Serenity cleared the table and washed the dishes. She then went to the balcony to water her plants. With the flowers in a beautiful bloom today, Serenity took a bunch of photos as usual and shared them on Facebook.
Zachary was rarely on Facebook, but since having a wife, he would keep an eye on her latest update. Her activity on Facebook would give Zachary an idea of her personality.
He was always the first to check out Serenity’s post of flowers. However, he would never like her posts because he did not want her to know he had been keeping up with her.
Zachary stood at the door to the balcony and watched Serenity quietly for a minute before turning on his heel to leave for work. All this happened without Serenity knowing
Carrying his wife’s packed lunch for him, Zachary was on his way to work.
Before leaving, he said to Serenity, “I’m off to work.”
“Drive safe,” Serenity replied kindly.
Zachary closed the door and carried two containers of food down the stairs.
His bodyguard squad was waiting for him there. They were either caught standing , perching, or sitting in the
greenery. Having caught sight of Zachary descending with food containers in hand, the bodyguards got on their feet and stared at him. No one drew close to Zachary.
Zachary was speechless.
What? Did they not recognize him because he was carrying containers of food?
“Sir.”
Thinking on his feet, Jim took quick paces over and
attentively took the packed food from Zachary.
Without a word, Jim headed straight to the Rolls Royce.
Soon, the Rolls Royce drove out of the neighborhood escorted by the bodyguards’ vehicles.
Serenity happened to look down from the balcony and saw the luxury sedans, which were commonly spotted in the neighborhood, driving away in convoy. She also caught sight of her man’s national MPV tagging along at the very end.
It was better to give way to the expensive cars than cut into their lane. God forbid if anyone crashed into them. The repair cost would be too much of a burden for ordinary people to afford.
The area must be one of the finest neighborhoods since a resident was driving a ten–million–dollar Rolls Royce here. Serenity wondered how much Zachary paid for the house.
Zachary worked as a senior executive at a major corporation. However, Serenity knew nothing beyond that. She never asked him either. Since he kept his guard up against her, Zachary’s mind would go on the deep end again if she started asking questions about his job. After Zachary was gone, Serenity nourished the flowers with water and took a seat on the swing. She had time to read the netizen’s comments after her big response.
Seeing that the netizens were having a go at her relatives, Serenity felt at ease.
There were people who advised Serenity to forgive and forget since it was all in the past. Plus, her grandmother was sick and frail now. Nevertheless, other netizens jumped to Serenity’s defense whenever these comments turned up.
It was unwise to judge a person until others had walked a mile in their shoes.
People were unlikely to let bygones be bygones if they were in Serenity’s shoes.
Serenity believed barely a handful of them would be able to put everything behind.
Nevertheless, it was always easier said than done.
Serenity was out the door after a quick rest. Needless to say, she went to visit her sister first.
Liberty had already left to get groceries with her son by the time Serenity arrived at her place. Serenity called her sister and found out that her sister would not be back any time soon, so she made her way to the bookshop.
A ten million dollar Rolls Royce!! Man I want to see that car! The Rolls Royce Phantom is their top car and runs $628,300
