Married at First Sight novel (Serenity and Zachary York)

Chapter 255
Serenity got in her car and sped off.
Zachary watched her go before walking into the bookshop. He took a look at the materials that she had not put away yet. He
could not make sense of it, so he turned away and went into the kitchen.
He washed the wok and put a little water in it before placing the leftovers from lunch into the wok, then turned on the gas to heat
it up.
Out of boredom, he casually opened the fridge and saw that it was stuffed full of seafood.
They were all given by Elisa Stone.
Elisa Stone was pretty generous to Serenity, even dragging a carful of seafood back for
her.
Thinking of how Serenity taught Elisa how to pursue him and that being the reason. Elisa gave her so much seafood... and that
he’d eaten quite a bit at lunch...
“Serenity? Serenity!”
Shawn Lowe’s cries came from outside.
Zachary immediately turned the fire down to its lowest and speedily ran into the bathroom, closing the door behind him..
There was no other reason than for the fact Shawn Lowe had met him before. If Shawn saw him, his real identity would be
exposed to Serenity.
Zachary did not want Shawn to expose his real identity.
Shawn walked into the bookshop and called for Serenity a few more times after seeing there was no one around.
In the bathroom, Zachary pinched his nose and shouted: “Who’s there? Serenity’s not in at the moment. Is something the
matter?”
Hearing a stranger’s voice and having seen the national MPV parked in front of the shop, Shawn guessed that it was Serenity’s
husband.
He was silent for a moment before he replied: “Are you Serenity’s husband? Where did she go? It’s not a big deal, I’ll just give
her a call.”
“She’s probably driving at the moment. You can tell me what you have to say to her and I’ll pass on the message when she’s
back,” Zachary said from the bathroom.
How could Shawn tell Zachary the truth?
He had come over to beg Serenity to accompany him to the business reception at Wiltspoon Hotel that night.
Although Lowe Enterprise did have its place in Wiltspoon’s world of business, Shawn, as a successor, was still in training. He
was still a small fry. His father arranged for him to attend tonight’s business reception to expand his network of connections
within the industry and to get to know the elites.

Once he took over Lowe Enterprise and if the management got gutted, he would still be able to choose from the elites at this
business reception and nurture his own confidants.
“It’s nothing much, brother–in–law.”
Shawn walked further in. “Where are you, brother–in–law?”
He saw that there was no one in the kitchen.
Zachary harrumphed in his heart. ‘Brother–in–law? Who on earth was his brother–in law?
You call me brother–in–law, but you want to snatch my wife away!‘
Zachary saw Shawn as his love rival, and he was his love rival indeed. Shawn was definitely waiting for him and Serenity to
divorce.
Even if they divorced, did Shawn really think he had a chance? If Serenity was going to fall for Shawn, she would have fallen for
him long ago. She said it herself, that she only saw him as a little brother!
“I’m in the bathroom. You can sit outside for a moment. I’ll be done soon.”
“I–I have something urgent to deal with, so I won’t stay. I’ll make a move first, brother -in–law.”
Shawn did feel a little guilty.
Even if Serenity and her husband did have a shotgun marriage, he could not ask Serenity to go with him to a business reception
right in front of her husband’s face.
“Alright, I won’t send you off then.”
Zachary would never ask Shawn to stay.
Shawn paused for a second, then turned to walk outside.
