Chapter 911
Married at First Sight
Paperwork for the transfer of Zacharyâs personal assets, including York Corporation shares, bank accounts, and all title deeds of residential and commercial properties had been sorted and packed in one envelope for Serenity.
âYou will own the companyâs equity, but Iâll manage York Corporation for you. The profit will be yours to keep. Iâm only working for you. If you have a financial target in mind, I will do my best to help you reach that goal.
âWe can proceed with the paperwork to transfer everything to your name if youâre okay with it. I wonât keep anything. You can decide how much you want to give me for allowance.
âI kept my guard against you, thinking you were out to get my money. Now, Iâm handing over everything I have to you to prove my confidence in you and apologize. through my actions. I promise all the hiding and lies wonât happen again.â
Without looking at the deeds, Serenity stuffed the document back into the envelope and stared at him in silence.
âSay something, Seren. What do you think?â
Her unresponsiveness drew an unsettling concern in Zachary.
There was no telling what was on her mind or what she planned on doing.
Serenity slid the envelope across the table to Zachary and said, âI wonât accept this, Zachary,â
Thrown into a fluster, Zachary grabbed Serenityâs hands out of impulse and desperately asked, âTell me, what do you want me to do, Seren? I promise I can do whatever it is.
âYou believe I was far too rich for you, so Iâm transferring my assets to you, turning the table between us. I put myself in a lesser position. Isnât that enough to give your assurance?â
He was giving her everything he owned.
âZachary, I donât want your charity. I donât want to rely on you. Donât you get it? I donât want to be an accessory, dependent on you for everything.â
He was a great shoulder to lean on when their relationship was at its best. What if she got used to having him around too much, and their marriage was doomed? Serenity would be putting herself in a very vulnerable and precarious position.
They had only been married for a few months. The way ahead was long. Zachary could say that he would love her forever, but an eternity had no end. Serenity found it hard to believe that his feelings would remain unchanged.
Some couples would still fall out of love and separate in their later years.
Serenity was only putting a safeguard in place.
âBut I want to be your rock and your lifetime support!
âI got you covered for anything and everything.â
Serenity had faith in his capabilities.
In the past, Zachary always took care of her troubles.
She believed he was a supermanâher superman.
Later, Serenity found out that all the troubles went away because of his social standing.
âSeren, take and keep this. Iâm readily available when you decide to go through with the process. The passcode for the bank cards is the same as the one I gave you for household expenses. Just get anything you need.
âYou can check out the property and see if thereâs anything that tickles your fancy. You can also keep a lookout for other properties that are to your liking. Your bumper is still damaged from the time you tailgated another vehicle. I see you havenât sent the car off for repairs. Why donât you switch to another car?
âI have a lot of cars in the garage. Pick one you like.â
Zachary slid the envelope back to Serenity, demanding that she accepted it.
