Chapter 697

After a phone conversation with her sister, Serenity felt a lot better. She stood up and got out of the bath.

Her darling husband had thoughtfully left a change of clothes for her before she went into the tub.

Ten minutes later, Serenity went down the stairs.

All was quiet downstairs.

Serenity thought their house in Brynfield was eerily silent. Since he was always home late, she did not have anyone to talk to when she got home.

That was why she wanted to have pets.

Mrs. Lane later joined the family, adding some noise to the quiet home.

To her dismay, he bought a villa that was bigger than the property in Brynfield. It was a quieter environment for the couple to live in.

Once on the ground floor, Serenity could hear the commotion in the kitchen.

Serenity drew close and saw Zachary busy in the kitchen. Without startling him, she leaned against the door frame and observed him.

He looked most charming when he was earnest at work!

Nevertheless, he was attractive doing anything at all.

While watching him, Serenity was hit with an idea and pulled out her phone. She tapped on the Facebook app and started taking a video of him to post on stories. She included a caption.

“The stunning back of the man who is making me dinner.”

After posting the video, she clicked on the video to watch it herself when Zachary caught the noise.

Turning around, he saw her and beamed. Zachary remarked, “Why don’t you have a lie–down? I’m not done cooking.”

“I’m hungry.“.

Since he had spotted her, Serenity made her way into the kitchen. She leaned in to look into the pan over the fire and uttered, “I’m too hungry to lie down. It’s only the two of us, so we don’t need a lot.”

“I’m making five dishes. Do you want some fruit since you’re hungry?”

Serenity could guess what he was cooking by the ingredients he set aside. She replied, “These dishes won’t take too long. I’ll wait.”

Just then, the doorbell rang.

“Who’s that?” Serenity asked.

“I didn’t find your favorite shrimp in the fridge, so I asked Mrs. Lane where she usually gets her supply. I placed an order for immediate delivery. It must be them. Go and take a look.”

“Sure.”

Turning on her heel, Serenity advanced forward before tracing her footsteps back. She wrapped her arms around his waist from behind and buried her face against his back. “Zachary, are you going to always be good to me?”

Zachary stopped what he was doing and held her hands around his waist. He turned around and looked deeply into her eyes. “You’re my wife. I will always be good to you. I will never be the one to leave you. I won’t ever agree to a divorce even if that’s what you want!”

To him, marriage was for a lifetime. Serenity may get angry when his cover was blown, but Zachary would not possibly let her go.

Serenity uttered with a smile, “We just became a real couple. Don’t talk about divorce.”

She loosened her grip around his waist. “Carry on with your cooking. I’ll get the shrimp. You can leave it out next time. There’s no need to get the shrimp delivered.”

“It’s your favorite. I’d satisfy your needs if time permits.”

With a smile, Serenity took off.
