Chapter 230
Married at First Sight
âIâm outside now.
Iâm going to your store to have breakfast with you.
By the way, you donât need to get takeouts for breakfast, Seren.
I bought three portions.
Iâll bring them over to eat with you and Jasmine.â âSure.
Wait for me in the store then.
I'll be right there.
But Nana, you donât have to get up so early in the future.
You can sleep in.
I wonât be hungry.â âTâm old now and a light sleeper.
I wake up as soon as the sun rises, so Iâm used to it.
Iâm not worried about you going hungry.
I just like eating with you.
Food tastes especially good when itâs with you.â Serenity laughed.
For the past few months, she often ate with the old lady.
Old Mrs. York knew that many old stores in Wiltspoon serve delicious snacks.
She would often take Serenity and Jasmine to eat all these famous and most authentic snacks in Wiltspoon.
Serenity and Jasmine both felt that Old Mrs. York was definitely a glutton when she was in her youth.
Now that she was old, she could not eat a lot.
Furthermore, since her living conditions had improved, her palate became picky.
That was why her appetite decreased.
The two chatted for a while before Old Mrs. York hung up the phone.
Then, she looked up and saw her grandson's dark eyes staring straight at her.
She was taken aback, so she asked, âWhat are you looking at me like that for? Did you want me to ask her something?â Zacharyâs lips which were pursed into a straight line parted.
â You've hung up. Is there a point In me saying It now?â âWhy didnât you speak up before?â He tensed his face and turned silent.
Old Mrs. York smacked his arm and said, âLook, this is exactly what Iâm talking about.
Youâre just so stubborn.
If you want to say or ask anything, just open your mouth and ask! You always make that long face and purse your lips.
Itâs as if your mouth wasnât made to speak.
âYour grandfather and I werenât clumsy in speech.
How did you grow up to become like this? You have a perfectly working mouth, but you donât know how to speak.â Zacharyâs handsome face was quietly tinted red.
He was scolded by his nana.
âTell me.
What did you want to ask Serenity? Iâll help you ask her when I see her later.â Old Mrs. York finally chose to help her grandson since she looked forward to the young couple getting along.
Zachary tensed his face again and remained silent.
Old Mrs. York was furious and wanted to smack him again.
She rubbed her hands together and muttered incessantly, âIs he my grandson? Is he really my grandson?â âT just want to know what time she came back last night.
She had an accident yesterday.â âWhat accident?â âA bunch of punks stopped her car in the middle of the road.
They wanted to beat her up, but she managed to fight back.
Finally, the police took the punks and her back to the station.â As soon as he finished speaking, Old Mrs. York glared at him.
The next second, she smacked him even more forcefully.
Zachary was wearing a running tank top, so his arms were bare.
A red mark bloomed on his arm after being slapped by his nana.
It was as clear as day how angry she was at the moment.
âYou saw that happening? Yet you didnât do anything? Zachary, even if you donât love Serenity, you canât just stand by and do nothing if you see her in danger.
Even if itâs a stranger, you should also stand up for whatâs right, let alone your wife.â Zachary waited until his grandmother was done scolding him and said sullenly, âSheâs very skilled.
I didnât even have the chance to save the damsel in distress.â Old Mrs. Yorkâs berate came to an abrupt halt.
