Cupid's Arrow hit me hard!

Chapter 49

Serenity finished her breakfast and cleaned up in the kitchen before telling Zachary, "I'm going out.Don’t forget to lock the door on your way out."

Zachary glanced at her before turning his attention back to his toast.

"That reminds me.Can I take some of the fruits to my sister's?"

She bought too much fruit the other day for the family event and they would be left to rot in the fridge since she and Zachary could not finish everything in time.

Zachary answered, "Your sister is family.You can take whatever you want without asking me.You're free to make decisions over household affairs unless it's a matter that requires a discussion between us."

"We're not that close, and I’m living in your house.I think it’s respectful to you as a husband to ask.

"I'm not the type to hog all the good stuff for my own family.I bought a little too much fruit the other day and I think they'll go to waste since we can't eat that much.At least now my sister can have some before they turn bad."

"Sure," Zachary responded.

Seeing that Zachary had no issue with that, Serenity packed two bags of fruit and brought them to her sister.

Liberty said to Serenity, "You don’t have to bring gifts when you visit.I have money to get things."

"It's only Zachary and me at home.I might eat some, but Zachary doesn’t like fruit.It's a waste to leave it to rot.He told me to give them to you.He said you're family"

Serenity had never seen Zachary munching on fruit.

Zachary often worked late and holed up in his room when he was back.She only saw him in the mornings.

It did not appear that Zachary had grabbed any snacks from the house. This belongs © NôvelDra/ma.Org.

Serenity suspected that Zachary would eat out like before if she did not make him breakfast.He probably had never drank from the tap at home.

At that point, Liberty accepted the bags of fruit.

Serenity played with her nephew for a while before heading to the shop.

With Serenity gone, Zachary threw the toast and the paper with the Word of the Day into the trash.

The toast was delicious at first, but the wheat contained too much carbs for his liking.

He said it before, and he would say it again! He would never know the meaning of jealousy! Zachary took out the trash with him in case Serenity saw the paper and breakfast in the bin.

The bodyguards were waiting for him downstairs.

Since Serenity had already left the building, they did not have to worry about the missus seeing them here.

With Mr.Zachary coming downstairs with a trash bag, the bodyguards were stunned.

In all the years they had been by Mr.Zachary's side, the bodyguards saw Mr.Zachary as a speckless God.

Zachary put the trash in the dumpster before walking to his car.

Since the bodyguards were not keeping up with him, he turned his head around and asked, "Are you under a freezing spell? What are you standing there for?"

Snapping out of their thoughts, the bodyguards kept up with his pace.

A bodyguard was in charge of driving the national MPV to York Corporation every day.

Zachary would then drive the vehicle back home from work.

Half an hour later, a red Ferrari stood out by forcefully blocking Zachary's convoy entering York Corporation.

The owner of the sports car was a lady in red.

With long, wavy hair curtaining her back, the woman had an exquisite face and her neck was complemented with a diamond necklace.

She also wore a diamond bracelet and matching diamond earrings.

She was shining bright like a diamond for sure.

The girl got out of her car and approached the Rolls Royce to knock on the window.

Zachary wound down his car window.

"Elisa Stone! You have two minutes to move your car!"
