Married at First Sight novel (Serenity and Zachary York)

Chapter 69
Zachary made an unexpected appearance at Serenity’s shop in the afternoon.
Serenity and Jasmine were ready to dig into their takeout after finishing the task at hand when Zachary arrived at the shop. He
went directly into the shop.
Surprised, Serenity stared blankly as Zachary approached her.
Zachary made a beeline to Serenity and lowered his gaze to her face. “Did you forget who I am?”.
Snapping out of the shock, Serenity replied with a smile,“ I didn’t expect to see you here. What brings you here? Have you
eaten? I can order you takeout if you’re hungry.” Jasmine said hello to Zachary before picking up her food and hiding behind a
huge shelf to eat. She left the space to the couple.
“I had lunch. Why did you wait until now to have yours?”
Zachary raised his hand to look at the time. It was almost one o’clock. Furrowing his brows, he told Serenity off, “ Take your
meals on time. Your body won’t be the same once you develop indigestion.”
He had an eleven o’clock lunch appointment with a client
at a hotel today. Zachary enjoyed a good meal before dropping by at Serenity’s shop. Had he known that Serenity delayed her
lunchtime, Zachary would have called her along to his lunch appointment.
Huh?
No way!
Zachary attended the lunch as the CEO. Bringing her along would expose his cover.
Although startled by his own sudden thought , Zachary did not show it on his face. He said faintly, “Have your lunch in the car.
I’m taking you somewhere.” “Where to? Is it urgent?” Without offering an explanation , Zachary turned on his heel and left.
After a quick contemplation, Serenity grabbed her takeout and informed Jasmine before chasing after Zachary.
Once in the car, she asked, “Where on earth are we going? Must we do it now?”
Zachary continued to withhold that information. Since Serenity got nothing out of him, she turned her attention to her lunch. By
the time she finished, Zachary’s car had come to a stop.
Serenity got out of the vehicle and saw that he brought her to a car dealership.
“Buy a car? My bike is fixed.
Shawn got my bike delivered to the shop. One of the wires short-circuited.”
Serenity walked toward a trash can to dump the food packaging. Watching as Zachary entered the car dealership without a word,
Serenity mumbled under her breath and followed suit. Zachary had mentioned before that he would pay the deposit for a four-
wheeled vehicle for her.
Serenity rejected the kind offer as the shop was not too far from Brynfield. Her e-bike served her well for the journey. It never
crossed her mind that Zachary would take her here to get a car. “I have a meeting at three. Better get right to it. Pick what you

like. I’ll pay for it and get back to the office.” Zachary added, “Don’t look at the price.
Just check if the exterior and functionality is to your liking. Have a test drive. We can get it if the drive feels right to you.” Serenity
drew close to him and whispered in his ear,“ What if I fancy a car that’s worth several hundred thousand dollars? The deposit will
be a lot for an expensive car. How much is yours? I’ll get the same brand.” Zachary’s national MPV was about a hundred
thousand bucks. Although his dark eyes flickered in brilliance , his tone remained flat. “Get a sedan then. Do you like black or
white?” “Black. Dirt is visible on white.”
“Sure,” Zachary responded. He preferred a black vehicle too. The couple shared similar tastes there. With the brand locked
down, the selection was made easy. Serenity test-drove a few sedans and settled on an SUV. Zachary got a good feel of the car
after a quick drive too. He went straight to make payment. She assumed it would be days before the car was ready for collection
after making the initial payment. To her surprise, Zachary paid in full, and Serenity could drive the car right out of the dealership
then and there.
