Chapter 695
Married at First Sight
Having been caught searching the web, Serenity could not stop the burn in her cheeks.
She sat up and snatched her phone back. Locking the screen, Serenity pretended like nothing ever happened and said, âI was just looking around because I was bored Whereâs the alcohol?â
Zachary brought two glasses of alcohol over and gave one to Serenity. He uttered,â We didnât have dinner, so we canât drink much. Just a little will do.â
âThatâs so little. Iâll finish this in two gulps before I can taste the alcohol.â
Serenity whined before taking the glass from Zachary. She took a sip to savor the taste. As expected, the liquor was not strong enough. He must be afraid she would get wasted.
She downed the drink like it was water.
Zachary took a sip and stared at her.
Since he was not selfâconscious, he did not need alcohol to psyche up.
âArenât you going to drink that? Iâll have it if youâre not going to.â
Serenity reached out to grab his wine glass. His glass was bigger and had more alcohol than hers.
Zachary stretched his arm up high so she could not steal his glass. He pushed her hand away and put the glass on the bedside table before pressing her down by the shoulders. While leaning in, he sealed her luscious lips and pinned her down onto the bed.
âZacharyâ¦
âIâm a little scaredâ¦â
âDonât be scared. Leave it to me.â
Zachary tenderly kissed her so she could relax her nerves.
Taking in his affection, Serenity gradually loosened up and swayed along his hips as they lost themselves in a sea of lust.
Ring, ring, ringâ¦
Zacharyâs phone rang.
âYour phoneâs ringing.â
âIgnore it.â
He was too busy to pick up the phone.
Ring, ring, ring The phone rang nonstop, but Zachary refused to pick up. The caller tried three times before giving up.
It was Clive.
Clive got the message that Zachary was back from his business trip. He wanted to ask Zachary out for a talk.
Yet, Zachary did not take his call.
Clive put his phone on the dinner table.
While carrying the dishes out, Alice took notice of Cliveâs sour face. She asked with concern, âWhatâs the matter, Clive? You look upset. Itâs after office hours, so you shouldnât be thinking about work. You promised me. No business meetings tonight. Weâre going to the movies later.â
Clive answered, âI tried to give Zachary a call, but he wonât answer. I called him three times too.â
âHe just returned with his wife, and itâs dinnertime. They must be eating. Do you have time tonight to meet him even if he picks up your call?â
Alice looked at him with her piercing and threatening gaze. Clive could try to ditch her at home to have a talk with Zachary.
Clive immediately responded, âI donât have time tonight. Iâll ask him out tomorrow. He must be busy since he just got back with Serenity.â
The couple was presently at Aliceâs family home. Since Mrs. Stone and her daughter were not around, the couple could talk without scruples. They did not need to worry about Elisa hearing about Serenity and Zachary.
Clive intended to enjoy the movies with his wife later before inviting Zachary out.
The dark of the night was the perfect time to talk as Elisa would not know about it.
Meanwhile, at Regent Residencesâ¦
