Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

Chapter 1366
Now, it was time for Lily to make her move.
The maid served tea.
Lily picked up a cup and elegantly took a sip.
Serenity opened one of the boxes and tried a dessert. As the food was good, she invited everybody to sample.
Zachary was not keen on anything sweet. He would only try it if the food was made by Serenity, so he would not bother with
anyone else’s.
Duncan would prefer not to eat sweet food either. Nevertheless, he would still taste the food out of courtesy.
Now that he tried Lily’s dessert, Duncan thought his senses were not overwhelmed by the sweetness, so he took another.
Seeing that Duncan grabbed the dessert twice, Lily reflected joy in her eyes.
Although Lily said she was here to meet Serenity, everybody, excluding William and Sonny, knew Lily was here for Duncan.
Still, Serenity could feel Lily’s intention to be good friends.
Zachary and Duncan were best friends, and Lily liked Duncan. If Lily could win Duncan’s heart and be a couple with him, there
was bound to be a long–term interaction between the group. Serenity was open to starting a friendship with Lily.
Aunt Audrey told Serenity not to underestimate the circle of married women in the higher society.
It was a group of connections to get intel and close deals. Since she was the missus of the York. family, she needed not to cozy
up to anyone. She would try not to step on other people’s toes and tried to be close to those whose friendships were worthwhile.
Serenity could simply steer clear of
those who had ill intentions.
Serenity was no longer just representing herself, but Zachary and the whole York family.
The philosophy Serenity upheld was not to be a drag even if she could not bring glory to the York. family.

“Lunch is ready, sir, missus,” Sam said in a soft voice.
The couple invited everybody to the dinner table.
Zachary hired an instructor for Sonny for one–on–one sessions. Nevertheless, William mentioned. that Sonny was a young
beginner, so the boy could spend some time building a good foundation. with fellow beginners at his gym.
After Sonny got the basics down–pat and was a little older, William could start giving him personal attention.
The Yorks had a private gym room, By then, Sonny could take up residence at Wildridge Manor.
It would take a while to build a firm foundation. Zachary and his wife would probably move back to Wildridge manor because they
would have their own kid. The place was huge, had a great view, and was secured. The children would be well–protected there.
The kids of the York family were shielded from the outside world before they reached adulthood
or stepped into society.
Considering that business could get hectic for Liberty, Zachary assigned Jim to drive Sonny back and forth from the gym.
Duncan and Lily left together after lunch. William left a business card to Liberty before taking his leave.
Sonny would begin his lessons at William’s gym tomorrow.
Since Sonny had not started attending kindergarten yet, he had a lot of free time and could take the lessons anytime.
Serenity and her husband accompanied Liberty to get her car.
Liberty joyfully drove her son home once she got the car. Finally, Zachary had some alone time with his wife.
“Where do you want to go, honey? I’m all yours. I’ll be with you no matter where you go.”
Although things were good with the couple right now, they rarely ever went on a date.
Serenity slumped against the chair and said, “I’m down with whatever. Just take me wherever you want.”
She yawned with grace. “I bet you told on me to my sister this morning. My sister walked into the room and said I drank too
much.”

It was a good thing her migraine was subsiding.
Otherwise, her sister would give her a piece of her mind.
“No. I went to Lewis & Co. to speak to Duncan, but he wasn’t at the office. I had to drop by your sister’s diner since I was passing
by. Your sister asked about you, and it just slipped my mouth. I wasn’t telling on you.”
Serenity let out a snicker.
As if she would believe him!
