Married at First Sight novel (Serenity and Zachary York)

Chapter 607
“Zachary, maybe Serenity didn’t tell you because she didn’t want you to worry?”
Duncan felt that he made a mistake and quickly offered an explanation.
However, Zachary hung up the phone.
Duncan said to himself, “Damn it. What am I supposed to do if the couple gets into a quarrel because of this?”
Once Zachary cared about a person, he would want the other party to put him first. In simpler terms, he was overbearing.
His domineering nature would sometimes let people feel like he cared about them, but other times, it made people feel
suffocated as if they could not breathe.
What was worse was that Zachary would feel like he was in the wrong. For example, he felt like he fell in love with Serenity, so
he was willing to do everything for her. However, Serenity was independent and would not tell him everything for him to help her
with. Thus, Zachary would feel that Serenity did not trust him and did not treat him as family.
Duncan called Zachary again, but it went to the mailbox because the number he dialed was on hold.
“Did he call Serenity in the middle of the night to question her?”
Duncan felt at a loss.
He merely said a few words. How did it cause so much trouble?
Josh was usually the one having such a loose mouth, but he never saw Josh get into trouble.
Zachary actually called Serenity.
The couple had just ended the call not long ago, so he dared to bet that Serenity was not yet asleep. Thus, he could not resist
calling her.
Serenity was still awake. When she heard the phone ring, she reached out of the covers for the phone and quickly retrieved her
hand back in.
It was cold.

After turning on the heating for a while, she did not like how dry it was, so she turned it off again. There was no hot water bottle
in Zachary’s room, and the natural hot water bottle that was Zachary himself was on a business trip, so she had to bundle herself
up to stay warm.
She saw that it was Zachary calling again.
She answered the call. “What’s up? I’m going to sleep.”
“What happened today?”
Zachary’s voice was low. Serenity had been getting along with him for some time and knew that his mood was different when his
tone changed.
She instinctively said, “Nothing happened. I told you, I found out that Mrs. Stone is my aunt. What’s with that tone, Zachary? You
sound as if you’re interrogating me. I didn’t take advantage of your business trip to eat and go shopping with other men.”
What tone?
“Aren’t you going to tell me about your sister? Even Duncan knows about it, and you’re not telling me even though I’m asking you
about it. Serenity, do you not regard me as your family? You didn’t even tell me about something this big.”
Serenity was speechless. “My sister and her former mother-in-law have a fight every once in a while. Is that something big to
you? We can handle it ourselves, so there’s no need to bother you. Besides, you’re away from home on a business trip. Are you
going to fly home and help us fight them even if I were to tell you?
“Mr. Lewis knows about it because he’s the boss of my sister’s company. Those two women went for my sister outside her office
building, and Mr. Lewis saw it as he was getting off work. I didn’t tell him deliberately. When I arrived, my sister and them had
finished fighting, and police officers had already arrived. I didn’t even have the chance to do anything.”
“I told you to tell me when you encounter difficulties! ”
Serenity sat up. ‘Did this man not listen to a single word I said? He’s just laser pointing at the fact that I didn’t tell him about this
matter.’
She said patiently, “Zachary, I also told you that I will handle stuff that I can handle myself. There’s no need to bother you, and I
won’t completely depend on you. Like I said, even if I’ve told you, you can’t come back to help me anyway. Why should I tell you

just to worry you?
“If you want to escalate the matter to the point of saying that I don’t regard you as family, then I can’t help it. Either way, can you
guarantee that you’ve told me everything? I don’t even know where your hometown is. Doesn’t that mean you don’t regard me as
your family either?”
Zachary choked.
“Zachary York, you’re a six-foot-tall grown-up man. Can you be a little less petty? Don’t get angry because of something trivial
and bicker over every single thing with me. I know you’re worried about me, but I’m not the kind of weak person who needs your
help 24/7.
“If that is what you want from your wife, then I’m sorry. I can’t do it.”
