Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

Chapter 1203
A ringtone was heard.
It was Serenity’s phone.
Her instincts told her that it was her husband’s call.
When she took her phone out, it was really Zachary who was calling.
“My husband’s calling me,” Serenity told her two best friends.
Jasmine was tactful and walked away to take a novel she had not finished from a bookshelf.
Elisa laughed and said, “I should be going back too. If there are no problems with the contract, I’ll have someone sign the
contract with the mayor. Our project can commence afterward.”
She took her bag as she spoke and left after speaking.
Serenity smiled and proceeded to answer Zachary’s call.
“Honey.”
Zachary’s voice was warm and alluring. He was captivating his wife with his voice on purpose.
Serenity could not stand him doing it. She could not help shuddering. She laughed and said, “Just say what you want to,
Zachary. You don’t have to seduce me.”
Zachary was speechless.
“Why are you laughing? I heard your laughter when you answered my call. Tell me what had happened that was so funny.”
Zachary returned to his usual personality.
His wife did not like his deliberate gentleness. She preferred him being natural.
“Nothing. Aren’t you busy?”
“I’m getting off work in half an hour,” Zachary reminded his beloved wife. Time passed quickly.

“Oh, are you coming over to eat? I recall you saying you had a lunch appointment and that you won’t be able to come over
before heading out this morning.”
Zachary rubbed the spot between his brows. He felt tired after having been busy the entire morning.
“Seren, I want you to accompany me to a meeting.”
Serenity was stunned. She said hesitantly, “I–I’m not fully ready. I’ll embarrass you if I make a mistake during the meeting.”
“You’ve been learning from your aunt for some time. It’s time to put it into practice. I’lII teach you about socializing at a meeting.
Don’t worry. I’m not afraid of embarrassment.” Zachary’s tone was gentle as he coaxed Serenity into accompanying him to the
meeting.
Serenity was not someone lacking self–confidence. At first, she was a little timid because the businesses Zachary dealt with
were big. Moreover, the people who could sit and eat with Zachary were all business tycoons. It was natural that a newbie
investor like her would feel scared at the thought of eating with those big shots.
However, she quickly threw those feelings behind her.
Would nothing be fine if she spoke less, listened more, and looked around more instead?
She would not affect her husband talking shop. In the meantime, she could also learn a thing or two from the experts.
“Okay. I’ll go over, but Sonny is asleep. My sister isn’t here yet.”
Jasmine immediately stuck her head out from the back of a bookshelf and said caringly,” Just go, Seren. I’ll take care of Sonny
for you. Liberty should be here soon.”
Zachary thought about it for a second and said, “You can come over after your sister reaches your place. I arranged to meet my
client at half past twelve in Wiltspoon Hotel’s presidential suite on the top floor.”
He could also rest in the presidential suite with his wife after ending the meeting and eating.
It was true that Zachary wanted to let Serenity learn by his side. However, it was also undeniable that he wanted to enjoy the
bliss of spending some time with her as husband and wife.
“Okay.”

Jasmine could take care of Sonny, but Serenity was still worried. She wanted to wait until her sister arrived.
“Did the Browns come looking for you?”
