Chapter 383
Married at First Sight
Chapter 383 Serenity said she wanted to go to the beach for some fresh air, so her wish was Zacharyâs command.
Of course, he could not bring her to the Seaview Villa.
Fortunately, during this season, the beach was not as busy as it was in the summer at this hour. There were only a few tourists scattered around the beach.
The couple walked on the soft sand while the waves crashed onto the shore. The sea breeze messed up Serenityâs hair and she was feeling chilly.
Zachary suddenly stopped in his tracks, so Serenity followed suit and asked him, âWhatâs wrong?â
He took off his suit jacket and handed it to Serenity. âItâs quite windy today. You should wear my jacket.â
Seeing that Serenity did not take the jacket from him, Zachary continued, âAre you gonna put it on yourself, or do you want me to help you?â
Serenity had no choice but to take his jacket and put it on. She asked, âArenât you cold?â âI am, but Iâm more afraid that youâll catch a cold.â
Serenity looked at him and laughed, âMr. York, your answer is different from the ones on TV shows.
The male lead will usually say, âNo, Iâm not cold. You can wear it.â
Of course, his answer was honest.
âIf Iâd known that the sea breeze was so strong and chilly, I wouldnât have requested to come here.â
Serenity put on his jacket and instantly felt warm.
She tilted her head to look at him, and he happened to be looking at her. Their eyes met, and he said, âAlthough I feel cold, I wonât shrink up like you. Iâm wearing a longâsleeve shirt, anyway. Itâs definitely warmer than your shortâsleeve blouse.â
âWell, now that you mention it, I feel less guilty.â
Zachary pursed his lips and said, âIf youâre worried that Iâll catch a cold, you can hug me. That way, I can feel your warmth and wonât feel cold anymore.â
Serenity almost choked on her saliva.
Was he flirting with her?
Seeing that Serenity was silent, Zachary knew she would not hug him, so he continued walking forward.
Within minutes, Serenity caught up to him and returned his suit jacket to him.
Before he could speak, she quickly said, âYouâre taller than me, so even if I hug you, I wonât be able to block the wind for you. Why donât you put on your jacket and hug me instead?â.
Zacharyâs face was cold when Serenity handed his jacket back to him, but after hearing what she said, he quickly took his jacket and put it on. He could not wait to pull her into his arms.
âLetâs find a place to sit,â he suggested. Serenity had no objections.
Zachary and Serenity were hugging each other while walking slowly. It was considered a breakthrough in their relationship as husband and wife.
They finally found a quiet place and sat on the sand.
As they sat, Serenity leaned against Zacharyâs chest while he hugged her. She felt warm and cozy. âMr.
York.â âHmm?â
âYou usually put on a cold and serious face, but your embrace is warmer than I imagined.â
Zachary looked down at her. âOh? Youâve imagined me hugging you?â
Serenity was speechless.
Zachary pursed his lips and smiled.
He hugged her a little tighter. âI was going to bring you to the beach for a nice seafood dinner this weekend, but since Liberty is going to talk to Hank about the divorce, Iâm guessing you wonât be in the mood for a holiday with me here. Iâll treat you to a seafood supper later tonight.â
âNow that youâve mentioned it, Iâm hungry. Letâs go eat now.â
Zachary laughed. âOkay. Iâll stay with you tonight no matter what.â.
Serenity stood up and said with a smile, âDonât make empty promises! Will you strip dance if I ask you to?â Zachary was at a loss for words.
