Married at First Sight novel (Serenity and Zachary York)

Chapter 1279
After lunch at the Stones' residence, Zachary had to make his way back to the office. Remy no longer had a good reason to
remain at the Stones' villa.
While eating, Clive had given Remy the dirty look multiple times.
Remy remained a gentleman and kept a smile on his face when meeting Clive's glares. It simply reflected poorly on Clive's
manner, further infuriating Clive.
"Mr. Johnson, shall we leave together?” Zachary asked Remy.
Remy replied with a smile, "Sure. There’s something I need to discuss with you too."
Serenity saw her man out the door. She was not in a hurry to leave as she wanted to spend some time with her aunt.
At the door, Zachary stopped and said to Serenity, "No need to see me off, Seren. I’m leaving with Mr. Johnson. Have a nice rest
at your aunt's before returning to the shop."
His two bodyguards were at the shop. They could help Jasmine, so all the work did not have to fall on her.
"Get some shuteye in the car during your ride back. At least you won't feel tired in the afternoon. Don't drink too much coffee
unless you plan on staying awake the whole night."
He would use his energy on her when he could not sleep.
Serenity urged him, reflecting her concern for him and herself.
Zachary answered, "I will."
He did not feel annoyed by her constant reminder at all. In fact, he felt loved.
As Serenity watched on, Zachary got into the car and rolled down the window to wave goodbye.
With the car driving out of the Stones' residence, Zachary rolled up the window and stopped the car in front of Remy’s home.
Remy asked, "Do you want to come in, Mr. York?"

Zachary did not turn down his invitation. He got out of his car and followed Remy into the highly sought-after villa. The residence
was built on a huge piece of land.
"Mr. York, the place can be a little untidy since it's still under renovation. I hope you don't mind."
Remy took Zachary for a stroll around the yard. The renovation began inside the house, so it was a complete construction site
inside. While there were building supplies piled up outside, the yard was in a better state than inside the house.
The landscape had been untouched for now. Remy did not move the decades-old trees away since Elisa suggested not to.
"How much longer will the renovation take?” Zachary asked in a husky voice.
After much thought, Remy answered, "I can probably move in next year."
The major facelift to the structure contributed to the length of time.
'The renovation can be time-consuming and bothersome. I always leave the task to my butler."
All Zachary had to do was bring his suitcase in.
Remy smiled. "I can delegate the renovation to my butler for other properties, but this house means a lot to me. I want to do it
myself to get the results I want. It will cost more time if we have to start over."
Tilting his head, Zachary glanced at Remy and showed understanding. "You do have to make an effort and make it special if you
intend to make this house your marital home."
Remy curled his lips. "Yes. I only want the best. I let her participate in the planning so she will be pleased with the style of decor.
I showed her the blueprints and asked for her opinions."
Seeing that Remy admitted his feelings for Elisa, Zachary paused and stared at Remy. He went straight to the point." So are you
saying that you have fallen for Elisa, Mr.
Johnson?"
