Chapter 577
“My memory isn’t that poor. It’s not like we just got our marriage license.”
Serenity yawned and added, “Go to sleep, Zachary. You have to travel tomorrow. Rest well so you’ll feel energized.”
She leaned over and kissed him gently on the lips.
“Goodnight, Honey.”
Zachary’s gaze suddenly intensified. He wrapped his arms around her waist, refusing to let her leave after that brief kiss.
His dark eyes burned as they locked onto her beautiful face.
Though she usually went without makeup, her dedicated skincare routine kept her skin radiant and smooth, making her face delightful to touch.
She was a true natural beauty.
Zachary had felt drawn to her from their very first meeting.
However, having encountered many beautiful women before, he did not feel an instant attraction to Serenity at first sight.
“Seren, what did you just call me?”
She hadn’t reacted the first time he used the term “Honey.”
Later, he found this a bit disheartening.
He reasoned that perhaps his tone lacked warmth and his feelings were not deep enough when he addressed her as Honey, leading him to stop using that pet name after two attempts.
When she called him Honey, however, her voice seemed to carry an electric charge that shot straight to his heart.
“Zachary.”
“No, you called me Honey.”
“So? You’re my husband.”
Zachary pressed her head gently and used his passionate kiss to convey his feelings.
As the kiss lingered, Serenity pushed his wandering hands away and lay back on the bed. She turned to her side and said, “Let’s sleep. It’s late.”
In a hoarse voice, Zachary replied, “You go ahead. I… I’ll go take a
He quickly lifted the quilt, got out of bed, and hurried into the bathroom. It was best not to continue with such an intense kiss when their relationship was still in its early stages. Zachary felt he was losing control, and it was not the right moment for that. Additionally, a cold shower in chilly weather could be invigorating!
Listening to the sound of splashing water from the bathroom, Serenity adjusted her position and lay flat, muttering to herself, “It’s your fault for being greedy.” She understood that the timing wasn’t right, so she only dared to give him light kisses, avoiding anything more.
The wife who had convinced her husband to take a cold shower hid under the covers, struggling to keep her eyes open. Eventually, she fell asleep before he emerged from the bathroom. The night passed in silence.
At dawn, she was awakened by the sound of a ringing phone. Serenity, too lazy to get up, kicked the man beside her. “Zachary, please check who’s calling. Who’s disrupting my beauty sleep so early?”
Zachary, also roused by the ringing, reached for his cell phone but found the screen dark. He then grabbed Serenity’s phone to check it. “It’s from your sister’s mother-in-law.”
The phrase “sister’s mother-in-law” piqued her interest. Serenity took her phone back from him. “I forgot to block their numbers.” Her sister had already blocked everyone from the Brown family.
“It’s already seven,” she noted as she sat up in bed. “I’ll pack your luggage later. You can go ahead and make breakfast.”
“Do you need something?” Serenity asked Olivia on the phone.
