Married at First Sight novel (Serenity and Zachary York)

Chapter 147

Chapter 147 
As the sisters only had each other for many years, Liberty understood Serenity well enough to know that her sister would stick up for her. In a deliberate effort to get her sister to stick around, Liberty took out a bottle of wine and enjoyed a glass with Serenity until midnight before letting the couple leave.
Serenity was a lightweight, and Liberty took out a stiff drink. After a glass of wine, Serenity found herself tipsy. She was feeling dizzy and staggering in her footsteps by the time she left her sister’s place.
Liberty saw the young couple off at the door.
She used to attend social engagements with her boss when she was working back then. Having learned to hold her liquor , Liberty could handle a glass of wine just fine.
“Zachary, Seren’s drunk. Please take good care of her,” Liberty urged her brother-in-law.
She got her sister drunk, so Serenity would not go after Hank for payback
Liberty was afraid the Browns would gang up on Serenity if she went to the Browns’ residence.
The Browns were just as absurd as Liberty’s relatives.
“I will take good care of Serenity, Liberty.”
Zachary helped Serenity down the stairs effortlessly. After Serenity nearly fell more than a few times, Zachary had to pick her up and carry her.
“Why did you drink when you couldn’t? Your sister had a reason to bring out that bottle of wine. Yet, you were so foolish to drink it.”
Serenity wrapped her arms around Zachary’s neck while letting out a blech. With the stench of alcohol invading his space , Zachary turned his head away in disdain and said, “Don’t blow your breath at me. You smell of alcohol. It reeks.”
LLLL
“I want to!”
Serenity stuck her face against his. “I’ll stink you to death. Why didn’t you stop me when you saw through my sister’s plans?”
Zachary was not comfortable with her being so close to him and nearly hurled her to the ground.
“Serenity!”
Scowling, he cried, “I know you’re still sober. Don’t you dare try to cop a feel!”
Serenity chuckled before resting her head on his shoulder. “I want to get even with Hank for abusing my sister. I’ll go tomorrow if I can’t go today. I’ll barge into his office to find him!
“How could you say that my breath stinks? I didn’t even complain about your breath when you were drunk the last time.”
Zachary muttered, “I didn’t ask you to look after me when I was drunk, but you need my help to carry you now.”
Serenity murmured, “I didn’t ask you to carry me.”
Zachary was rendered speechless.
Well, no good deed went unpunished.
After descending the stairs, Zachary stuffed his drunken wife into the car. Due to her tendency of groping him, he shoved Serenity in the backseat so her wandering hands would not get in the way of his driving.
It did not matter to Serenity as she got into the car, lay down, and conked out.
Zachary turned over to glance at her. Seeing that she had fallen asleep without qualms, Zachary squinted his eyes and said nothing
He quietly drove his wife home.
Midway, the woman in the backseat jolted up and yelled,” Pigs will fly when men become dependable.”
She fell back down and continued her beauty sleep after that.
Zachary turned his head around to look at her once more.
He sat in silence for a while before his husky voice echoed in the car. “Don’t paint all men with the same brush. It takes all kinds to make a world. Some men can’t be trusted, but there are reliable guys too.”.
Zachary would be a reliable man if he were to fall for her.
Even if love did not exist between them, he would do his due diligence as a husband in the next six months.
The woman in the backseat did not answer.
Zachary did not count on her to give a response.
Soon, they were back at Brynfield.
Zachary parked the car, got down, and pulled open the door to the backseat. He popped his head in and called out to the girl, “We’re home, Serenity. Get down.”
