Chapter 150
A few minutes later, Serenity mumbled to herself, “Do you think I want to go into your room? If one day you were to beg me, I wouldn’t set foot inside at all.”
Having realized that she also had the habit of locking her bedroom door, Serenity stopped rambling. Ultimately, this was the aftereffect of marrying at first sight.
After guzzling down the hangover cure Zachary made for her, Serenity returned to her room and turned in for the night.
It was a quiet night throughout. The following day, Serenity woke up to the sun shining on her face.
She felt around the nightstand for her phone and looked at the time. It was past seven o’clock. Even as an early riser, Serenity barely got up at this hour today. She was usually awake by six in the morning.
This was the result of having one glass of wine last night.
It was a good thing she did not wake up with a headache.
She was hungry though. Serenity felt bad for her sister last night and that resulted in her not much eating at her sister’s place. Now, the
hunger was settling in.
She got dressed, brushed her teeth, and left her room in record time. She was about to make her way into the kitchen to get a start on breakfast when she noticed a breakfast spread on the dining table. It was her favorite full breakfast, complete with bacon, sausages, hashbrown, pancake, and coffee.
Zachary came out of the kitchen with the perfect sunny side-up eggs in hand. Seeing that Serenity was up, he said faintly, “I didn’t see you when I got up, so I went out to get breakfast. I cooked some eggs.”
“I thought you made everything yourself.” She was also about to say that he had the makings of a great chef.
It turned out that he got takeout.
Since Serenity was hungry, she sat down and helped herself to a sausage.
“The sausage tastes good. I don’t think you got the food from the restaurants around here.”
Although many restaurants had full breakfast on their menu, the taste was always not quite there. The hotel restaurants tended to be more savory.
“I drove to the Wiltspoon Hotel to get breakfast. The Wiltspoon Hotel has a good variety, and they make their food from scratch. Their food tastes out of this world. I was thinking I might as well get the best food I could
find.”
Truth be told, Zachary told his bodyguards to get takeout from the hotel.
“I share the same thought. I prefer to treat myself to the best food around.”
Serenity had a taste of Zachary’s eggs and realized it was not bad at all. She remarked with a smile, “Mr. York, I can’t believe you also have the potential to become a chef.”
Zachary was without a word.
Once the couple was nearly stuffed, Zachary suddenly said, “Serenity, it’s better that you don’t look for your brother-in-law to get even today.”
“Why?”
“You should ask your sister whether she wants to continue with her marriage. If they still want their marriage to work, you, as the sister-in-law, shouldn’t try
to teach your brother-in-law a lesson. Of course, you can’t pretend like nothing ever happened but it never hurts to ask about it.
“Although you have a great relationship with your sister, your sister and brother-in-law are in this for the long run. They wouldn’t be able to move on if you kick up a huge fuss. What if they were to kiss and make up? You’d become the bad person, and your sister might blame you
for telling your brother-in-law off.”
Zachary had not married anyone prior to Serenity, so he had no experience on how to make a marriage work. Nevertheless, he had heard about a family standing up for a woman in their family after the latter’s fight with her spouse. In the end, the couple could not live with each other. The woman even blamed her family for her failed marriage.
It was because the woman had never considered divorce.
Serenity’s fork halted at picking her mushroom. It might not be what she wanted to hear, but Zachary had a point.
Her sister raised the subject of divorce to Serenity, but only in private. There was no telling whether Liberty had made up her mind about it.
With a temper such as hers, Serenity might beat Hank up when she sought him out. Would
her sister feel sorry for Hank if Serenity hurt him?
