Chapter 364
Married at First Sight
Chapter 364 Mrs. Lane smiled when she saw Serenity eat with such enthusiasm. As she watched, she suddenly felt hungry as well. She stopped looking at Zachary and started to eat with gusto.
While Mrs. Lane brought the dishes to the kitchen to wash them after the meal, Serenity pulled up a chair and slowly walked to Zachary.
Zachary instantly straightened up like a defensive hedgehog.
The difference this time was, he was not guarding against her. Instead, he was nervous and had no idea what his wife wanted to do to him.
âMr. York, we have a guest room, but thereâs no bed. After we pick Sonny up later, weâll send Mrs. Lane and Sonny back to the store. Weâll have to go and buy a bed and sheets for her since we canât let her sleep on the floor.â
The hedgehogâs quills flattened at once. âYouâre the lady of the house. You can arrange it however you like.â Zachary had an important meeting this morning and could not spare the time to accompany Serenity to buy the beddings.
âHave you run out of the ten thousand I gave you previously? When I get to the office later, Iâll use a computer to transfer some money to the livingâexpenses card. Although we hired Mrs. Lane as a nanny to take care of Sonny, we canât treat her poorly. Buy a higherâquality bed and cabinet. Donât feel bad about spending the money.â
âI havenât used up the money, so you donât have to transfer more. Thereâs enough money left to buy the furniture for Mrs. Lane. Donât worry, Iâm not the kind of person who would abuse the nanny.â Serenityâs face reddened a bit when he mentioned the livingâexpenses bank card.
When they were having a cold war, she was in a bad mood and went out on a mad shopping spree.
She swiped the card used for living expenses and spent quite a lot of his money.
Serenity decided to use her own money later when she went shopping as a way to make up for her act of abusing the livingâexpenses card.
In a family, both the husband and wife had to contribute. She would not take advantage of him, and he would not scheme against her.
They coexisted peacefully and respected each other like a guest. Zacharyâs face was gentle, but his eyes were like a bottomless and unfathomable pit when he looked at her.
IL However, not a word came from him.
Serenity was used to his habit of staring at her silently. In fact, she would find it abnormal if he spoke more.
Zachary was speechless still. âOh, itâs getting late. We have to hurry to fetch Sonny from my sisterâs place. My sister has to go to work.â
Liberty was riding her own bike to work today, so there was no need to pick her up and drop her off again.
Zachary hummed and stood up.
He walked back to his room.
Soon, he came out again.
In his hand was an extra suit jacket as well as a tie.
He simply held them in his hands, neither tying the tie nor putting the jacket on.
Serenity was waiting for Mrs. Lane at the kitchen door.
Perhaps because Zacharyâs gaze was intense, Serenity looked over and saw him staring at her. She blinked, smiled at him, and turned back to Mrs. Lane, Seeing that Mrs. Lane finished washing the dishes, she said with a smile, âWe have to go now, Mrs.
Lane. Your daytime job is mainly to help me take care of my twoâyearâold nephew, Sonny. Heâs very obedient when he wants to be, and equally naughty when heâs feeling mischievous.
Mrs. Lane removed her apron and laughed as she walked out. âAll children are like that.â
When Sam arranged for her to come over, he made it clear to her what her job was.
Zachary would increase her pay as long as she did her job well.
Zachary was still standing there with his jacket and tie in his hands. Serenity did not know what he wanted, but Mrs Lane did.
She whispered something to Serenity.
Serenity instantly looked at Zachary.
âThatâs what he wants?
âBut I donât know how to help a man tie a tie. âIs it too late to search the steps online and learn now?â
