Chapter 1309
“I think Mrs. Lewis showed your sister Ms. Harmon’s picture deliberately to test whether your sister has any ideas
about Duncan. In the end, she found out that Liberty has absolutely no interest in her son and was purely focused
on her store and making money.”
Zachary’s analysis was more thorough than Serenity’s.
“If Liberty showed the slightest hint that she was interested in Duncan, Mrs. Lewis would not allow her to continue
operating her store.”
Serenity agreed with her husband.
Mrs. Lewis was testing Liberty, but Liberty did not know anything. However, that was good. At least Liberty would
not be influenced.
“Babe, do you think I should tell my sister about all this?”
“Mrs. Lewis’s hands are tied, which means she’s on the same boat as we are. She only has speculations but no way
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtto prove them. You don’t need to say anything to Liberty. I’ll talk to Duncan and tell him not to go to your sister’s
store for breakfast so often in the future.”
Zachary grumbled about Duncan in his heart, ‘He has breakfast prepared for him at home. Why does he have to
get up early every weekend to go all the way to All You Can Eat for breakfast?”
“Okay.”
After Zachary ate his fill, Serenity asked him with a smile, “Do you want me to accompany you anywhere else?”
Zachary dotingly flicked her forehead. “Of course. I’ve eaten too much and need to go on a walk to help with
digestion. Walk with me downstairs.”
Serenity grinned. “It’ll be my honor.”
“Don’t be so serious. You’re just walking with me. It’s nothing that honorable.”
Mrs. Lane smiled as she watched the couple go out on a walk.
Serenity wanted to bring Snowball with her. She looked at the man beside her, then glanced at Snowball, who
looked like he wanted to follow. In the end, she chose her man and left Snowball
behind.
There were quite a number of people walking around in the neighborhood, and there were many walking their
dogs.
Zachary did not like to be close to those small animals. Whenever he encountered someone with their dog, he
pulled Serenity and avoided them. There was one person walking his dog who was embarrassed and said to the
couple, “My dog doesn’t bite.”
Small dogs were all the dogs that the residents of the area kept as pets.
Serenity smiled sheepishly at the man but did not explain that her husband did not like furry
animals.
As for Zachary, he always put on an icy cold face when they were outside. His expression was hard like it was
carved from marble.
Serenity thought, ‘I can’t even take a chisel to carve his face. It’s too tough!”
“Babe, why don’t you like cats or dogs? Putting aside whether other people’s pets are cute or not, our little
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSnowball and two Ragdolls are adorable, but you don’t like them either. Snowball is round and chubby, so I find him
especially cute.”
Mrs. Lewis took great care of the three pets.
Even the two Ragdolls were fed until they were round. They were more than twice as big as when they first arrived
at Serenity’s side.
“I don’t know why either. I just don’t like them. Back at the manor, my cousins never dared let their pets appear in
front of me for fear that I’d sell them.”
Zachary held Serenity’s hand tightly and looked at her.
She did not like how cold and quiet the house was back then, and the couple often got into spats, so it indeed got a
little awkward sometimes. After thinking about it, he decided to send her some pets for her to keep, but he did not
allow the three little things to enter his room.
That was the line he drew.
For her, he broke too many exceptions.
Serenity knew what his look meant and said with a smile, “Thanks, babe.”
He would not have given her pets if he did not love her.
In fact, Zachary already fell in love with her back when he compromised and gave her pets.
