Chapter 344
Serenity said, “My sister said she‘s not coming over for lunch because her office is quite far from here. It‘s troublesome to go
back and forth since she doesn‘t have a long lunch break. They have an office cafeteria, so she‘ll be eating there.”
Zachary hummed.
“When Liberty comes back from work in the evening, you should ask her if she can adapt to the company and if anyone bullies
her. I‘m quite close with Mr. Lewis, so if someone bullies her, I will ask Mr. Lewis to back her up.”
Serenity turned her head to look at him again. “No wonder my sister loves you so much. She always tells me to treat you well.”
Zachary blushed slightly.
He had always been on his best behavior in front of his sister –in–law.
Due to time constraints, Serenity prepared a simple lunch.
Fortunately, Zachary ate with relish and did not dislike it at all.
Serenity thought that apart from not eating bacon, green onions, garlic, and coriander, he was actually quite easy to please.
After the meal, Zachary did not leave immediately.
Serenity washed the dishes and came out of the kitchen. Seeing that Zachary was still there, she took out her phone and
checked the time. She walked over to him and asked, ” Mr. York, don‘t you have to go to work in the afternoon? It‘s past one
o‘clock. I remember you used to hurry back to the office at about one o‘clock.”
Serenity noticed that Jasmine and Sonny were missing, so she shot another question, “Where are Sonny and Jasmine?”
“Ms. Sox said she was going to the supermarket to buy something, and Sonny followed her.” Zachary felt that Jasmine went out
deliberately to give the couple some privacy.
It seemed that Jasmine truly had no intention of matchmaking Shawn and Serenity.
Zachary‘s opinion of Jasmine improved greatly.
“Oh.”
Serenity walked back to the cashier and sat down.
“Serenity.”
Zachary was in a dilemma. When Serenity looked at him, his words were stuck in his throat again, and he could not say anything
Before Zachary could say the next sentence, Serenity asked with concern, “Mr. York, have you encountered any difficulties? I
can tell that you‘re very troubled. You can share them with me and I‘ll see if I can be of any help.”
Zachary was speechless.
He did not have any trouble.
No, he was actually in trouble.
He bought a bunch of flowers for his wife, but he did not know how to give them to her. “Is it a financial issue?”
Serenity definitely could not help Zachary with his work problems. Furthermore, he would not look so troubled in front of her
because of his work.
“How much do you need?”
“I‘m not short of money.”
“Then tell me what is it? What‘s wrong? You don‘t go to work when it‘s time to leave, and you don‘t speak your mind. Why can‘t
you just tell me straight? I told you that I‘m stupid and can‘t read your mind.”
Zachary was silent again.
When he thought about the agreement, he could not bring himself to say anything. He felt that giving flowers to Serenity was a
slap in the face.
Serenity was anxious because of his stoic expression.
“Mr. York, you don‘t have to tell me anything if you don‘t want to. I just feel anxious looking at your troubled face.” Zachary still did
not speak. Nana was eloquent and talkative, but her grandson was a
man of few words.
Serenity suddenly understood why Nana was trying to matchmake her with Zachary.
Nana must have been worried that Zachary would stay single for life.
