Sitting up, Serenity took the cup of hot cocoa and slowly sipped on it.
She had no idea whether it was Zachary’s care for her or the hot drink working
its magic, but she felt a lot better after the cup of cocoa and another lie-down.
By the time Zachary was back with something to relieve her pain, Serenity was
scrolling the news on her phone.
“Why are you on your phone when you’re sick?”
Zachary drew close and snatched the phone out of her hands before stuffing the
pain-relief medicine into her hands. He said, “It’s late. The pharmacy was

closed. I went to the nearby hospital and got a doctor to prescribe you some
pills. Take some and go back to bed.”
Lifting her chin, Serenity quietly stared at him.

went out.”
Zachary held her to sit back on the bed and held her hands. Unable to feel the
ring, he immediately raised her hand up high.
With a scowl, he asked, “Where’s the wedding ring I gave you?”
“I didn’t feel comfortable wearing it while working, so I took it off when I got to
work.”
Peering at his grimacing face, Serenity immediately added, “I’ll put it on right
away when I get to the shop tomorrow. I won’t ever take it off again.”
