Chapter 1184
Married at First Sight
In any case, Duncanâs future wife had to be wellâmatched with him in terms of their families social status.
Mrs. Lewis remarked, âLily is still the most suitable one, but that brat isnât giving her a chance at all. If he spends some time with her, they might end up being together. Iâm going to York Corporation tomorrow.â
Mr. Lewis asked her, âWhy are you going there?â
âDuncan, Zachary, and Josh are a trio. Theyâre the closest friends. Zachary and Josh are both taken and have tasted the sweetness of love. Iâll ask them to do the thinking for Duncan and get them to persuade him to give it a shot with Lily.
âHe might not listen to his parents, but heâll listen to his good friends. Heâs even staying at Zacharyâs place now. Dear, send me Zacharyâs phone number. Iâll call him later and not wait until tomorrow.â
Mrs. Lewis thought about asking Zachary and Josh for help.
âZacharyâs bad at talking and is worse than your son. Call Josh instead. Josh knows how to talk, so heâll be more likely to persuade Duncan.â
âRight, right, right, then Iâll call Josh.â
If Josh heard this, he would wonder if he was almighty!
Everyone always looked for him.
Late at night, Zachary arrived home. He gently pushed the door to enter his house, then he carefully closed it again and locked it.
The lights were lit.
He turned around and saw Serenity standing at the door of their room in pajamas.
âSeren, youâre still up?â
Zachary walked over and gently pushed her draped hair to the back of her head. Her pretty face was fully exposed to him.
âI just woke up and heard the door open. I knew it was you.â
Serenity helped Zachary take off his suit jacket as she spoke. She then asked him, âAre you hungry?
Should I make you supper?â
âIâve never had supper. Iâm afraid Iâll gain weight and then youâll despise me.â
Serenity chuckled. âIâll despise anyone but you.
The couple spoke softly and went into their room together. They were afraid of waking up their nana.
Zachary even closed the door very carefully.
Back in their room, Serenity helped Zachary hang up his suit jacket and went to get some clothes for him to take a shower.
Zachary looked at her and smiled ear to ear.
âWhy are you looking at me with that grin? You look like a fool.â Serenity stuffed the clothes into his arms and picked his cheek. âSeeing you smile used to be the hardest thing.â
âSeren.â
Zachary opened his arms and embraced Serenity. âI was thinking how blessed I am to see you by my side when I wake up in the morning and have you get my clothes while listening to your soft voice when I come home at night. I just couldnât help but smile.â
He was grinning ear to ear.
Serenity returned the embrace as she was also moved. She later pushed him away and said, âHurry up and take a shower. Itâs past midnight.â
Zachary touched his face and asked for a sweet kiss. âHoney, Iâll go shower if you kiss me.â
âItâs up to you if you donât want to shower, but donât come to bed. You can sleep in the study,â Serenity said as she turned to leave.
Zachary held her back, then she swirled and went back into his arms. She held his handsome face with both hands and gave him a peck on his lips. She looked lovingly at him and asked with a smile, âHappy? Mr. York?â
âI like to hear you calling me babe.â
âBabe.â
Zachary smiled dotingly and went to the shower as he was satisfied. Before closing the bathroom door, he said to Serenity, âHoney, wait for me.â
