Married at First Sight novel (Serenity and Zachary York)

Chapter 639
Zachary looked at the drawing.
His gaze deepened.
Serenity had drawn him particularly well, but she deliberately drew his heart outside, and a super duper small one at that...
Was she saying that he had a tiny heart? She meant to say he was petty and narrow–minded!
There was also water behind his portrait. Was it a lake or a pond? Furthermore, what did the circles on the surface of the water
mean? There were no fish under the water. If there were, he could say that the bubbles were from the fish.
Zachary held the drawing and pondered while walking.
What did Serenity mean by her artwork?
The portrait was “Zachary“, but what did the water and balls mean?
Jim was waiting for him downstairs.
“Mr. Zachary.”
“Mm.”
Zachary hummed. When he saw Jim looking at the paper in his hand, he got into the car and said, “ Serenity drew this for me.”
Jim did not see clearly what was on the paper, but since the missus drew it, then it must be a good drawing.
He thus complimented, “The missus’s drawing must be beautiful.”
“Yes, she drew me like a photograph.”
Zachary leaned back on the car seat and stared at the series of circles on the water.
Zachary was a what–ball?
“Water? No... Zachary is a slimeball!”

Jim perked up and turned to look at Zachary. “What did you say, sir?”
He seemed to hear the words “Zachary is a slimeball.”
‘Is Mr. Zachary calling himself a slimeball?
‘Or are my ears playing tricks on me?”
“It’s nothing, just drive. I’m in a hurry.”
Zachary sighed deeply upon deciphering the hidden meaning behind Serenity’s drawing. He folded the paper carefully and kept
it. Although Serenity was calling him names, it was her first drawing for him.
It was especially meaningful and he had to cherish it wholeheartedly.
Ring ring ring...
His phone rang again.
It was Josh calling.
“Zachary, are you home or leaving for your business trip again?”
“I’m going on the trip.”
“That sucks. You have to work over the weekend.”
Josh looked sympathetic.
“Stop gloating.”
Zachary spoke in a bad mood. He did not have to return to the company during the weekend, but the, problems had not been
fully managed. In addition to that, he had to visit a few of the injured employees.
The matters this time needed to be handled by him or Josh personally mainly because his employees‘ lives were involved.
Fortunately, the injured workers were rescued.
The purpose of this business trip was to clean up the mess. The management of that subsidiary would have to be changed.

“Zachary, have you seen your wife’s drawing?”
“I saw.”
“How do you feel?”
Zachary said faintly, “It’s incredibly lifelike. It’s clear that she engraved me into her heart. She must love me very much to draw
me so skillfully.”
Josh paused. “Well, you can think of it that way. What about those circles she drew? Do you understand what those mean?”
“Yes, my Serenity can’t bear to call me a slimeball to my face, so she used the drawing to express herself. She’s taking care of
my reputation so I don’t feel humiliated. It’s clear that she likes me very much. She can’t even bear to scold me in person.”
Josh said, “Zachary, you’re the only person who can spin a completely different meaning to a drawing that was meant to scold
you.
“Aren’t you angry? Did you tear that drawing?”
