Chapter 810
Serenity’s heart sank to the pit of her stomach.
Zachary usually drove a national MPV. Did he deliberately buy the car to trick her?
She bet he went around in an expensive car with his security detail in tow because that was how stylish the heir of the Yorks
traveled!
“Seren.”
Zachary got out of the car and took large strides over.
“Seren.”
Zachary approached the sisters, first apologizing to Liberty. “I know I’m in the wrong here, Liberty. Can you give me a moment
with Seren?”
Tilting her head, Liberty looked at her sister.
Serenity callously retorted, “What’s there to talk about? You’re the great Mr. York. You’re up there, and I’m down here. I’m just a
lowly citizen, and you’re out of my league. I’m not entitled to have a chat with
you.”
She dragged her sister along to leave.
“Seren.”
Zachary reached out to pull her back.
Liberty let go of Serenity’s arm and said, “You should talk to him, Seren. No matter what, you should give him a chance to
explain.”
Serenity tried to shake Zachary’s hand off, but he would not let go.
Suddenly, Serenity lost it and pounded him like a lunatic.
Zachary quietly took her outburst and waited until she was drained from the
hammering to pull her into his arms. Zachary locked her in his arms and clung to her tightly.
It was an outcome he had expected.
That was why he feared facing the truth.
After a talk with Ben, Zachary took Ben’s advice and mustered the courage to be truthful about everything.
“Let go, Zachary! Let go of me! You liar! B*stard!”
Zachary kept Serenity’s warmth close to him, refusing to loosen his grip as Serenity yelled and bit him. She did not hesitate to
chomp down on his flesh. Although in pain, Zachary did not allow her to break free. She might just walk away from him the
moment he let go.
“I’m sorry, Seren. I’m sorry.”
All Zachary could utter was apologies.
He owed her big time.
After all, Zachary had kept the truth from her for a long time.
Her mind flew back to when Zachary came down with the nasty flu. He probed her, asking under what circumstances would she
leave him. She quoted domestic abuse, cheating, and endless lies to be the last straw.
She also mentioned that she would not make a commotion or say anything if she was leaving for real.
After Serenity was exhausted from hitting, yelling, and biting, Zachary bent over and picked her up to carry her to his Rolls
Royce.
Serenity tried to put up a struggle, but she was out of energy.
Since she had to face reality sooner or later, Serenity gave up the fight and let him carry her into the car.
Soon, Zachary’s Rolls Royce took off from York Corporation under the protection of his attending convoy.
“To the villa on the hilltop,” Zachary huskily instructed the driver.‘
Serenity then recalled Zachary lying about a mortgage on the villa. Apparently, he had not fully owned the villa since the house
was still on a mortgage. Closing her eyes, Serenity did not even want to look at the man.
Every memory she had with him was all lies.
Did he ever speak a word of truth to her?
Zachary threw a huge fit one time because she had not kept him in the loop about Liberty. He made a huge fuss, saying that she
did not see him as family. The fight nearly progressed into another silent treatment.
In the end, he was the one who had fooled her the whole time.
Talk about hypocrisy.
In the car, Zachary latched onto Serenity, and her refusal to even look at him was killing Zachary inside.
Their affection for each other was no more the moment he accepted the interview.1 Would their relationship ever get back to
where it once was?
