Chapter 1278
"It's nearly time for lunch. I don't suppose your kitchen is ready yet. Do you want to join us?”
Remy was quite at home at the Stones’ residence since he had the pleasure of dining there a few times. He said,
"My kitchen is still under renovation, so I don't have any cooking facilities yet. There will be a lot of people dining in
the hotel at this hour. I don’t think I can get a private dining room for myself. I'd love to have lunch at your place.”
With a smile, Elisa welcomed him into the house.
As for Zachary and his wife, Elisa needed not to attend to them.
Standing next to Zachary, Serenity stared at the backs of Elisa and Remy before telling her man, 'They look good
together."
Zachary only had his eyes on Serenity. Following her comment, he took a quick glance at the pair and faintly
uttered, "They do."
"It's obvious that Mr. Johnson has the hots for Elisa, but he’s not being truthful to her about his feelings. Zachary-uh,
I mean-Babe, can you try and put out feelers with Mr.
Johnson?"
Serenity was most eager for Elisa to start dating again.

She could not shake the guilt that she stole Elisa's love everytime she and Zachary appeared before Elisa.
Elisa was really into Zachary.
Able to read his wife’s mind, Zachary held Serenity's hand and interlocked fingers with her as they walked out of the
gazebo. He replied, "Sure, I’ll try and get something out of Mr. Johnson. I'll encourage him to go after Elisa if he's
romantically interested in her.
"Don't get wound up in this, Seren. Nothing will ever happen between Elisa and me even if you aren't in the picture.
She's not my type."
Serenity refused to admit to it. "I'm not getting wound up. That reminds me, why did you come over? It must be
exhausting for you to make trips back and forth."
The journey from York Corporation to the Stones' residence was a lot further than Zachary making his way to
Wiltspoon Hotel.
Zachary would have time for a quick afternoon nap if he kept to the same lunchtime routine.
Now that he was here at the Stones' residence, Zachary would have to rush back to the office after lunch. He only
had time for a quick shuteye in the car.
"I came because I missed you."
Amused, Serenity answered, "We leave home together every morning. Yet, you still miss me."

"I miss you everytime you're not with me. I can't stop thinking about you and can't be bothered to do anything if
you go somewhere far away and won't be home for days."
As if Serenity would believe him. Still, his sweet nothings made her feel loved.
He would only give his everything to his job and work his employees to the core when she was not around.
"Is Clive still being a d*ck?" Zachary sullenly asked.
"We managed to talk some sense into him. At least he stopped insisting on Alice getting an abortion. Aunt Audrey
and my sister said that the abortion will only cause more harm to Alice. He didn't want Alice to go through that, so

"His attitude rubbed Aunt Audrey the wrong way. Pregnancy is hard enough. Men should cherish and love their
wives who are willing to bear their children."
Women did not have it easy during pregnancy. Plus, childbirth could prove fatal. Women were basically exchanging
their lives for the birth of their babies.
Stopping in his tracks, Zachary turned his head and looked into Serenity’s eyes with deep affection. "I will always
love and cherish you, Seren."
Serenity grinned. "We have not been married for a year. We're still in our honeymoon period. Only time can tell
whether you're able to cherish me forever."
"I will use a lifetime to prove my love to you."
Lowering his head, Zachary planted a warm kiss on her forehead. As she closed her eyes to enjoy the tender
moment, he pulled her into his arms and sealed her lips.
Nevertheless, he quickly released her from his grip.
Zachary could not take things too far since they were at the Stones' residence.
Serenity did not share his thick skin.
"Come on. Let’s have lunch."
Free from his hold, Serenity opened her eyes and locked fingers with him once again as they approached the
magnificent house.
