Chapter 847
Zachary’s eyes flashed with hurt, but he did not react as fiercely as he did yesterday.
He said gently, “Seren, do you really want to keep those little animals? If you do, I’ll tell Brandt to lead the way. Ms. Sox and you
can go see our family orchard. If you think it’s suitable to rear chickens there, you can keep them there. You can take care of
them yourself if you want or let the workers do it.”
Serenity frowned. “I didn’t see an orchard at your house when you brought me over during the holidays.”
“The hills planted with fruit trees next to Wildridge Manor is the orchard. It’s the York. family’s ancestral manor.”
Serenity was not surprised that her in–laws had a manor.
They were rich.
They were involved in all sorts of industries as long as there was money to be earned.
“Are you willing to let me out of this villa?”
Serenity captured the key points of Zachary’s remarks.
Zachary looked at her, and she met his gaze. When the couple looked at each other, Serenity finally saw the fatigue his face
bore. When she was upset, he was not happy either.
“Seren, I’ve apologized countless times, but I still want to say that I’m sorry. I shouldn’t have lied to you for so long. I caused you
to lose your trust in me, so I won’t beg you to forgive me immediately and pretend as if nothing happened.
“I just hope you can give me a chance to regain your trust. Don’t simply mention divorce again, okay? It really hurts me.”
Unless a couple really wanted to divorce, mentioning it in the heat of the moment during a quarrel was easy to break the other
party’s heart.
Serenity was silent for a moment before softening her tone. “My heart is in a mess right now, and I might regret things I do or say
later... Zachary, I don’t want to talk to you right now. I just hope you can let me leave this place and let me go back for a
breather.
“I also need to think about how our marriage will go in the future. I need to face the reality of us both. You don’t have to worry
about me going far away after walking out the door. Where would I go? All my loved ones are here.

“Besides, I won’t run away. Running doesn’t solve the problem.”
Zachary nodded with a heavy heart. “You can go back with Ms. Sox. L... I also need to
be alone for a while.”
Serenity looked at him for a moment before standing up. Her tone was much gentler than before. “Let’s both calm down and cool
off. I’ll leave now,” she said in a slight hurry as if afraid that Zachary would change his mind.
Zachary also stood up and looked at her deeply. “I’ll see you off.”
Serenity did not refuse.
Jasmine was quite surprised that Zachary came around.
Of course, this was good.
She was happy for her best friend.
Serenity walked in front with Zachary following behind, and Jasmine brought up the rear. She could tell that Zachary was
extremely reluctant. It was truly a tough
decision for him to let Serenity go.
However, he still managed to do it.
Zachary’s points were in the negatives, but she added a few points to him because of that action.
Liberty happened to drive over with her son.
She saw the villa gate open with a truck parked inside. The truck seemed to be
loaded with... chickens and ducks?
That was besides the point. What was important was that she saw her sister come
out.
Zachary simply followed Serenity. The look of reluctance, pain, and conflict could all be seen in his eyes.
“Seren.”
Liberty carried her son and got out of the car.
“Aunt Ser.”
Sonny was too young to know what was going on between the adults. When he saw his aunt, he struggled to get to the ground
and trotted over to Serenity.
“Hey, Sonny.”

3/3
Serenity was elated to see her nephew too. It had obviously only been a day, but it
felt like an eternity had passed.
During the time she lost her freedom, she especially missed her family and friends.
