Chapter 1321
Married at First Sight
âIâll help you with your makeup, honey.â
Serenity complied with his wishes and changed into the most conservative dress in her wardrobe.
Zachary volunteered to help his wife with her makeup again.
Serenity refused without even thinking about it.
âI still care about my appearance.â
Her words made Zacharyâs mouth flap several times without saying anything.
His reaction amused Serenity, and she asked with a smile, âDo you know how to do makeup? Donât think I donât know what youâre thinking. Youâre going to paint my face like a ghost so no one will look at me.â
Zachary was speechless. âIâve never helped a woman with her makeup before, but I wouldnât make you look like a ghost to scare people.â
âForget it, I canât trust you. Iâll do it myself. Go and get yourself ready. Weâll be heading out soon.â
Zachary refused to leave and said, âI donât have anything to prepare. I just need to change into a suit, switch my home slippers for leather shoes, and the finishing touch will be you helping me with my tie.â
He did not need to apply makeup.
He was born handsome. Makeup would only make his handsome face look ugly instead.
Zachary York never wore makeup.
âWe donât have to rush. It doesnât matter if weâre late as long as we show up.â
In previous years, Zachary always showed up very late to the Marshallsâ banquet. He would not stay long before leaving either.
He was used to being late and leaving early.
Serenity went back to the vanity and sat down, combing her hair while saying, âYouâre used to being late and leaving early.â
âI donât like to be surrounded by them.â
âItâs because youâre the eldest young master of the York family.â
Zachary said, âI wouldnât be able to marry you if I wasnât the eldest.â
If he was not the eldest, his nana would not have let him marry Serenity.
Knock, knock.
Someone knocked on the door.
âGo open the door.â
Serenity chased him away lest he chatter in her ears endlessly. She never dreamt that one day, the mature and calm Mr. York would become a broken record, nagging her so much that her head hurt.
Zachary darted over to press a kiss on her cheeks. Just when she was about to slap him away, he swiftly ran off to open the door.
âMr. Zachary.â
A maid stood at the door of the room and said respectfully when Zachary opened the door, âYour parents have arrived.â
Zachary hummed and closed the door again.
âWho was it?â Serenity asked as she put on her makeup.
âMy parents are here.â
âWell, why arenât you going downstairs then?â
âThis is their sonâs home. Theyâre free to do whatever they want here. They donât need me to accompany them.â
Zachary went up behind Serenity and watched her put on her makeup. âHoney, you donât need to dress up so beautifully. In fact, I think you look great au naturel. Youâre naturally beautiful, so youâre still the most beautiful woman on earth even without makeup.â
âDonât say Iâm the most beautiful woman on earth. Youâll make people die of laughter.â
âYouâre the most beautiful woman in my eyes. Just light makeup is enough.â
If asked for his opinion, he would say that his wife was better off without makeup.
There would be many people tonight. He really did not like other men staring at her.
Even if they looked at her secretly, he would still be upset.
âJust go downstairs already!â
