Chapter 642
Liberty shot her sister a skeptical glance. “Are you suggesting that his clothes just ran outside by themselves? They’re still damp, which means they must have been washed last night or this morning.”
Serenity whispered, “Did he really come back last night?”
“What did you say?”
“Nothing. Anyway, don’t you think the flowers I have are lovely? You can enjoy the little balcony garden while I finish my meal.”
After Serenity returned to the dining room with her bowl and sat down, she quickly took out her cell phone and sent a message to Jasmine.
[Jasmine, when did I get drunk last night? Did you and your brother take me home after I got intoxicated?]
[Why did I dream about Zachary coming home? It’s not like I miss him.]
[There are clothes drying on my balcony, and they’re still damp… Could it be that I wasn’t dreaming? Did he actually come back?]
[Please text me instead of calling since my sister is here. I don’t want her to worry that I’m fighting with Zachary.]
After her divorce, Liberty’s greatest fear was that her sister would be affected and unhappy in her own marriage.
Consequently, Liberty was worried about the relationship between her sister and brother-in-law.
Jasmine responded promptly.
[You drank a lot before getting drunk. It was my first time seeing you break your record. Your husband did come back. I helped you out of the bar after you got drunk last night.]
[Then, I ran into Mr. York in front of the bar. He grabbed you before I could react.]
[He was the one who took you home. You weren’t dreaming; you truly sensed his presence. He came back. I thought you wouldn’t remember anything given how drunk you were.]
Serenity was left speechless.
After a moment of contemplation, she texted her friend.
[Zachary really came home? I can’t recall what happened. I…]
I thought I was dreaming. He said a lot of things to me too, and he nagged like an old man. Jasmine was too lazy to type, so she sent a voice message instead.
“Did you just wake up? Is Mr. York around? Oh, right, I asked Josh last night, and he said Mr. York had to rush back to the city today for his business trip. Josh mentioned that those matters needed to be handled by Mr. York before he could return.
“Seren, he was so worried when he found out you went to the bar to drink that he dropped everything and came rushing back. It’s clear that he still cares about you.”
Serenity turned down the volume slightly before listening to her best friend’s voice message. It turned out that Zachary had indeed come back. However, he had left before she woke up. He was incredibly busy, yet he hurried back because she had gone to the bar to get drunk.
Serenity didn’t know whether to feel touched or continue being stubborn. How did Zachary find out she went drinking at the bar? While they had met Josh there, who might have told Zachary, it seemed unlikely since Zachary was far away. He couldn’t have arrived right as she left the bar. He must have returned earlier because he received advance notice.
“Didn’t you follow when Zachary brought me home?” Serenity asked. Jasmine replied, “Mr. York went to pick you up himself and called a car. That substitute driver from your neighborhood, Jim, drove.”
Serenity recalled that while she was showering, the clothes she wore this morning were different from what she had on yesterday, indicating that someone had changed her clothes after she got home. With Mrs. Lane absent and Grandma May back at her house, Jasmine hadn’t returned with her. This meant Zachary must have been the one who helped her change. She had been completely out cold last night.
Did Zachary do anything when he undressed her?
