Chapter 1673
Married at First Sight
After some hesitation, Zachary told Serenity the truth.
âSeren, Iâm not going over anymore. If the food has been delivered, you can dig in first. Iâm at the hospital. Duncan met with an accident.â
Upon hearing the news, Serenityâs expression changed She quickly asked, âHow did it happen? Did it occur when you two were together? Did you both drink and drive again?â
Zachary explained, âNo. We didnât drink today. That was yesterday All of us didnât drive. I still donât know what happened. I came to the hospital right after Josh informed me Duncanâs still in the emergency room. They say his legs were injured the worst, and itâs uncertain whether they can be saved.â
Toward the end, his tone turned heavy, and his speech slowed. He sounded sad.
âIâm done with my work now. Iâll head to the hospital after closing the store.â
Zachary did not stop his wife from coming over He reminded her, âDrive slowly â
âIâll have a bodyguard drive. Donât worry. Mr. Lewis is a good person. Heâll be protected by the heavens and be okay.â
Serenity could only console her husband.
Zachary hummed in response. âHeâll be okay.
He believed that Duncan could pull through.
âSeren, eat something before coming over.â
While he worried for his best friend, Zachary did not forget to remind Serenity to first grab a bite: She would probably not be in the mood to eat after coming to the hospital. He could starve, but he could not let Serenity starve with him.
âOkay. How many people are waiting in the hospital? Iâll order takeaways for everyone.â
âNo need. Just have your food. Iâll have someone head out to grab some food.â
Serenity was at ease as Zachary had already made arrangements.
After ending the call, she quickly ate some food and moved all the racks at the storeâs entrance back inside.
The bodyguards noticed that she was closing up and entered to help.
Several minutes later, Serenity hopped into the car and let the bodyguards drive her to Wiltspoon Community Hospital.
She thought hard and long on the way to the hospital. In the end, she dialed her sisterâs number.
âAunt Serâ
Sonny picked up the phone âSonny, whereâs your mom? Tell her to get on the phone.â
âDonât you miss me, Aunt Ser? I miss you. Mom and I moved to a new house, Aunt Ser Do you want to come and live with us? I want to live with you and Mom.â
He would be able to see Aunt Ser every day, just like before.
Sonny was referring to the days when Serenity was still living in Libertyâs home He had a good memory, so he had some impression of it.
âSonny, I have something urgent to tell your mom. Pass the phone to her first Sonny obeyed and brought the phone into the kitchen. He said to Liberty, who was washing the dishes, âMom, itâs Aunt Ser.â
Liberty took the phone. After turning the speaker mode on, she asked her sister as she washed the dishes, âWhatâs wrong, Seren?â
âLiberty, something happened to Mr. Lewis.â
Upon hearing that, Liberty was stunned. She asked, âWhat happened to him?â
âZachary said Mr. Lewis had gotten into a car accident. The cause is still unknown, but heâs heavily injured and still being rescued in the hospital. Iâm on the way to the hospital. When you were injured last time, Mr. Lewis helped out a lot. He even stayed overnight in the hospital by your side.
âI thought I shouldnât keep this from you, so Iâm letting you know.â
It would be up to her sister to go to the hospital or not.
Liberty stopped washing the dishes and said, âIâll go to the hospital now.â
It had nothing to do with romantic feelings. She and Duncan had known each other for almost a year.
He had always taken great care of her. When they were still strangers, she accidentally scratched his car. He only asked her to compensate him with a small amount of money for repairs. because of Zachary When she was stabbed, he watched over her in the hospital.
Due to those favors, Liberty had to go to the hospital and wait for him to regain consciousness âLiberty, if youâve decided to go to the hospital, Iâll make a turn and go over to pick you up.â
âNo need. Iâll drive.â
Serenity reminded her, âBe careful when you drive. Are you bringing Sonny too?â
