Married at First Sight Chapter 84 – Zachary was speechless.
He refused to budge from a stare-down before saying faintly, “It’s late. Get some early rest. Don’t fall
asleep here again. It’s chilly at night. You’ll feel the pain when you catch a cold.” Zachary then turned on
his heel and left. Soon, Serenity picked up on his door closing and locking.
Serenity murmured with glee, “Who is he trying to keep out by locking the door?” It was her who Zachary
was trying to keep out! Back in his room, Zachary went straight to the bathroom, but not for a bath. He
stood in front of the mirror and stared at his reflection.
Judging by the faint blush, he did turn red on the face. Lifting his hand, he traced his facial lines and
rubbed the spot Serenity touched while searching for the tingles he got back when her fingers ran along
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇthis face.
He turned on the tap and washed his face. Thinking back on his reaction, Zachary smiled and mumbled
to himself, “I’ve never let anyone touch my face for as long as I can remember.”
Now that he had reached adulthood , his stern and aloof personality warded anyone off from invading his
personal space. Besides, it was hard for young women to approach Zachary through his wall of
bodyguards. There was no chance anyone could throw themselves at him or take liberties with Zachary.
Despite the impenetrable defense , Zachary dropped the ball on that one woman at home. Serenity
defiled the innocence of his face. Yet, she was his legal wife. It was not like he could do anything to her
after she violated his face. Plus, his response was ridiculed in return.
Zachary took his time in the shower. Reminded by the woman on the balcony, he opened his bedroom
door and put his foot forward before shrinking back into the room. He was giving the cheeky girl a free
peep show if he were to walk out bare-chested without his dressing gown on.
A few minutes later, Zachary confidently took strides out of the room after he put on his dressing gown
and tucked everything under, making sure nothing was showing. He went to the balcony to check on the
woman. Well, he might catch her asleep on the swing.
As expected, the girl had dozed off there. Zachary was caught between emotions, especially after he told
her not to fall asleep there. With a kick to the swing, the seat jerked into the air and startled the woman
awake. “Mr. York? Is it morning already?” Staring into her bleary eyes, Zachary was tempted to give hear
boogie.
“You fell asleep here. Get up and return to your room. I told you off about this, yet here you are. You
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmcould’ve told me you wanted to feed the mosquitos and I would’ve moved your bed to the greenery. ”be
mean, but behind all that tough exterior is a softie.” Zachary was rendered speechless.
“Oh.” Serenity got to her feet and murmured, “You might one had ever called him a softie. Plagued by
sleepiness, Serenity retreated to her room without another peep. She took a quick shower and conked
out. It was a quiet night all the way through.
The following day, Zachary woke up to breakfast served on the table. His wife was watering the plants on
the balcony. He went out there. “Morning, Mr.York.” Serenity greeted him with a grin. Zachary hummed in
response. Serenity went back to pouring water over the plants.
The roses were blooming today. “It will be beautiful when the roses climb all over the balcony and
blossom.” Zachary’s mindharked back to the rose garden at the gate of the Yorks’ estate.
It was breathtaking when flowers bloomed, but he never stopped to smell the roses, probably because
he had seen them one too many times. Although the family’s greenhouse enjoyed a variety of roses,
Zachary rarely had time to appreciate the beauty.
