Chapter 1095
Married at First Sight
âseren, donât put the pressure on yourself.
Weâre only taking preventive measures.
Besides, people in our circle often go around with security detail.
No one will be caught dead without one.â Serenity blamed herself.
âIâm concerned that the Newmans will get back at me through my sister and Sonny.â However, she did not regret helping Camryn.
Carrie went too far.
âIt wonât happen.
Donât worry.
Iâm here for you.
Besides, your sister rented the shop from Duncan.
Duncan is pretty responsible as a landlord.
He won't let his tenants get into that kind of situation.
Heck, he owns the commercial space of half the street.
He has never had a problem.â Duncan had been on the other side of the law before.
Even though Duncan had turned away from the dark side, he was still on good terms with many people from his past.
No one would stir trouble on his turf.
Plus, Duncan was fond of Sonny.
Duncan would not sit by and watch if anybody were to lay a finger on Sonny.
âThe only people with the audacity to come after you are the Newman mother and daughter and your relatives.
I'll let Josh know to have eyes on both families.
At least we'll know if they are up to something, and we will be ready for them.â Zachary then asked his beloved wife, âWill you still help Camryn if you could turn back time?â Serenity replied without a second thought, âI will.
She wouldâve died if Elisa and I didnât jump in that night.â It never occurred to Serenity that Carrie would have no respect for the law.
Zachary smiled, knowing that his wife would not turn away from justice.
âIn that case, you shouldnât blame yourself.
What you did is admirable.
We canât please everybody in this world.
There are bound to be a few bad apples.
âWe canât stop these bad apples from coming into our lives.
All we can do is keep our guard up.
Anyway, go and take a bath.
Itâs late.â Serenity echoed his thoughts.
Even if she did nothing, there would still be people who would not see eye to eye with her and would wish her the worst of luck.
Since she had no regrets about helping Camryn, she should not dwell and blame herself further.
As for the possible retaliation from the Newmans, she should go with Zacharyâs advice and just be ready for the vile family.
Having gotten over it, Serenity went into the bathroom for a bath while Zachary sat down on the bed to give Josh a call.
Josh and Jasmine had just arrived at the Soxesâ residence after a night out together.
He wanted to come in for a drink when Zacharyâs call came.
Jasmine said it was late and her family was asleep anyway.
He was told to go home and rest.
He watched Jasmine enter и.Ï.ν.ÑâÑ.вÏ.Ïк.¢Ïм the house and took the call from Zachary.
âAre you still on a date?â âItâs late.
Ijust drove my girlfriend home.
Why are you not asleep at this hour?â Zachary answered, âSomething happened to my wife again.â
Getting a bad feeling, Josh asked with concern, âWhat happened? Did you fight or have another misunderstanding? Did you drink at tonightâs business meeting and screw around when you were drunk? Zachary was speechless.
âYouâre the one screwing around.
I didnât even drink a drop of alcohol.â âNot a drop? And Mr. Moe и.Ï.ν.ÑâÑ.вÏ.Ïк.¢Ïм was fine with that?â Mr. Moe was the client Zachary met tonight.
âT was straight with Mr. Moe that my wife doesnât like me drinking.
She doesnât like the stench of alcohol on me.
I have to sleep in the study if I drink, and Mr. Moe called me an uxorious husband.
I drank tea instead.â
