It\u2019s inconvenient for her to make the trip back and forth, especially since she doesn\u2019t have a long lunch break. They have a cafeteria at her office, so she\u2019ll be eating there.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Zachary hummed in response.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cWhen Liberty gets back from work this evening, you should ask her how she\u2019s adjusting to the company and if anyone is giving her a hard time. I\u2019m quite friendly with Mr. Lewis, so if she is being bullied, I can ask him to support her.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Serenity turned to look at him again. \u201cNo wonder my sister cares for you so much. She always tells me to treat you well.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Zachary felt a slight blush creeping up his cheeks.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>He had always made an effort to be on his best behavior around his sister-in-law.<\/div>\n<div>Due to time constraints, Serenity prepared a simple lunch.<\/div>\n<div>Fortunately, Zachary ate it with enthusiasm and didn\u2019t seem to mind at all.<\/div>\n<div>Serenity thought that aside from his aversion to bacon, green onions, garlic, and coriander, he was actually quite easy to please.<\/div>\n<div>After the meal, Zachary didn\u2019t leave right away.<\/div>\n<div>Serenity washed the dishes and came out of the kitchen. Noticing that Zachary was still there, she checked the time on her phone. She approached him and asked, \u201cMr. York, don\u2019t you have to return to work this afternoon? It\u2019s past one o\u2019clock, and I recall you used to rush back to the office around this time.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Serenity then realized that Jasmine and Sonny were missing, so she asked, \u201cWhere are Sonny and Jasmine?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cMs. Sox mentioned she was going to the supermarket to pick something up, and Sonny went along with her.\u201d Zachary suspected that Jasmine had stepped out intentionally to give the couple some privacy.<\/div>\n<div>It seemed that Jasmine truly had no interest in matchmaking Shawn and Serenity.<\/div>\n<div>Zachary\u2019s opinion of Jasmine improved.<\/div>\n<p>\u201cGreatly.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cOh.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Serenity returned to the cashier and took a seat. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cSerenity.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Zachary found himself in a dilemma. When Serenity looked at him, his words caught in his throat, leaving him unable to speak. <\/p>\n<p>Before he could form his next sentence, Serenity, concerned, asked, \u201cMr. York, are you facing any difficulties? I can see that you\u2019re quite troubled. Please share your concerns with me, and I\u2019ll see if I can help.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Zachary was at a loss for words. <\/p>\n<p>He didn\u2019t have any issues. <\/p>\n<p>Actually, he was in a predicament. <\/p>\n<p>He had bought a bouquet of flowers for his wife but didn\u2019t know how to present them. \u201cIs it a financial issue?\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Serenity certainly couldn\u2019t assist Zachary with work-related problems. Furthermore, he wouldn\u2019t appear so troubled in front of her due to work. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cHow much do you need?\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI\u2019m not short on money.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThen what is it? What\u2019s wrong? You leave work at odd times and keep your thoughts to yourself. Why can\u2019t you just tell me directly? I\u2019ve mentioned that I\u2019m not good at reading minds.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Zachary fell silent again. <\/p>\n<p>Thinking about the agreement made it hard for him to speak. He felt that giving flowers to Serenity would be like a slap in the face. <\/p>\n<p>Serenity grew anxious at his stoic expression. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cMr. York, you don\u2019t have to share anything if you don\u2019t want to. I just feel uneasy seeing you look so troubled.\u201d Zachary still remained quiet. Nana was expressive and chatty, but her grandson was a man of few words. <\/p>\n<p>In that moment, Serenity understood why Nana was so eager to matchmake her with Zachary. <\/p>\n<p>Nana must have been worried that Zachary would remain single for life.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chapter 344 Serenity said, \u201cMy sister mentioned that she won\u2019t be coming over for lunch because her office is quite [&hellip;]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":1,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"site-sidebar-layout":"default","site-content-layout":"","ast-site-content-layout":"default","site-content-style":"default","site-sidebar-style":"default","ast-global-header-display":"","ast-banner-title-visibility":"","ast-main-header-display":"","ast-hfb-above-header-display":"","ast-hfb-below-header-display":"","ast-hfb-mobile-header-display":"","site-post-title":"","ast-breadcrumbs-content":"","ast-featured-img":"","footer-sml-layout":"","ast-disable-related-posts":"","theme-transparent-header-meta":"","adv-header-id-meta":"","stick-header-meta":"","header-above-stick-meta":"","header-main-stick-meta":"","header-below-stick-meta":"","astra-migrate-meta-layouts":"default","ast-page-background-enabled":"default","ast-page-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-5)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"ast-content-background-meta":{"desktop":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"tablet":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""},"mobile":{"background-color":"var(--ast-global-color-4)","background-image":"","background-repeat":"repeat","background-position":"center center","background-size":"auto","background-attachment":"scroll","background-type":"","background-media":"","overlay-type":"","overlay-color":"","overlay-opacity":"","overlay-gradient":""}},"footnotes":""},"categories":[20],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-12096","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","hentry","category-married-at-first-sight"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12096","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=12096"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12096\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12096"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12096"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12096"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
