Chapter 207
There was no reply from Zachary, so Serenity said to her sister, “Zachary’s probably having a good time with his friends. He
didn’t reply to my message yet.” “You don’t have to come here tomorrow. Spend some quality time with Zachary.” Liberty had a
failed marriage, so she hoped her sister’s marriage would be better and longer than her own. She approved of Zachary as her
brother-in-law because he was genuinely kind to her sister and was more generous than Hank. Although Liberty had known
Hank for a long time, Hank was reluctant to buy her a scooter even when he had ample savings. Serenity was the one who
bought her the e-bike. “Alright,” Serenity said. “By the way, are the Hunts still looking for trouble with you?” Liberty asked about
her money-hungry relatives. “I wonder what happened to them. Grandmom had probably undergone the surgery by now.” “They
wanted to reconcile the last time they came over but didn’t return after that. They’re probably embarrassed. Besides, that
trending story has been topped by new ones. There’s no trace of it now, so the impact on them is limited. That’s why they won’t
come again.” What Serenity did not know was that Zachary helped her to solve the problem. She thought her money-hungry
relatives were too embarrassed to come looking for her again. Liberty was relieved. In the evening after they had dinner, Liberty
urged her sister to go home. Jasmine did not want to go back to face her mother’s disappointed face, so she followed Serenity to
Brynfield and visited Serenity’s apartment. “Serenity, your apartment is spacious and well-lit. I especially like your balcony. You
can sit on the swing, read a book, and enjoy the flowers out here. How relaxing! If you have a small coffee table in front of the
swing, you can drink tea, too. It’ll be even cozier.” Serenity smiled. “That’s a great suggestion! I’ll buy a small coffee table
tomorrow and put it here.” “I bought some of these flowers, and Zachary bought the rest. I don’t know which florist he went to
pick them up from. Their flowers are healthy, beautiful, and huge.” Serenity was truly satisfied with Zachary’s way of doing things.
“Mr. York bought those flowers? They are beautiful. Can you ask him where he bought them? I want to buy a dozen pots from
there and place them on my balcony on the second story at home.” Serenity agreed. The two girls chatted for a long time, and
Jasmine did not leave until after nine o’clock in the evening.
After Jasmine left, Serenity sat down on the sofa and watched Tv. Having lived in this apartment for a while, Serenity had rarely
turned on the TV. Since Serenity did not usually watch shows, she did not know which channel to tune into when she turned on
the TV. She then simply turned it off and scroll through some news, trending stories, and videos on her phone. Time flew by.
When Serenity looked at the clock, it was already eleven at night. Serenity went into her room to take a bath. When she came
out of the bathroom, she heard a knock on the apartment’s door. Did Zachary not bring the key? Or was he drunk again?
Serenity responded and opened the door. Jim was standing at the door, holding Zachary up. Zachary’s face was flushed, and he
smelled of alcohol. At a glance, Serenity knew that Zachary was drunk. “Um... I’m the substitute driver. Your husband is drunk
again, so I drove him back.” Serenity smiled. “It’s you again! Thanks for taking my husband back.” She stretched out her hand to
help Zachary, but Zachary slapped her hand away and pushed Jim aside. His face was cold as he walked past Serenity. Serenity
had a good temper and did not throw a fit. She thanked Jim again before closing and locking the door. She turned around and
saw Zachary sitting on the sofa. His whole body exuded a chill, and he seemed to be angry. Who pissed him off? Serenity was
silent for a moment before she walked over and asked him, “Why did you drink again? How much did you drink?” “None of your
business!”
