As they walked, he explained, \u201cMy friend discovered that your brother-in-law is now at the Grand Hotel, which is owned by the Stone Group. I work at York Corporation, and the two companies aren\u2019t on good terms. To avoid being recognized by anyone from the Stone Group, I painted half of my face black. Now, no one will be able to identify me.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Serenity glanced at the birthmark he had drawn.<\/div>\n<div>Even in a hurry, Zachary\u2019s attention to detail was evident, showcasing his meticulous nature.<\/div>\n<div>No wonder he was a white-collar executive at York Corporation.<\/div>\n<div>Serenity finally understood Grandma May\u2019s praise of Zachary as a very attentive man.<\/div>\n<div>Of course, Zachary was only attentive when he cared about someone.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cWash it off with soap and water when we get back later,\u201d she suggested.<\/div>\n<div>As Serenity ran a stationery bookstore, she knew how to clean marker stains from skin. Zachary wanted to ask her to help him remove the marker from his face, but he hesitated.<\/div>\n<div>He felt a bit embarrassed.<\/div>\n<div>If Grandma May had been there, she would have said, \u201cWhat\u2019s the use of your mouth if you don\u2019t dare to speak?!\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Josh would have chimed in, \u201cBoss, just say it boldly!\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Meanwhile, Serenity, Zachary, and Mrs. Lane were busy with their tasks. Jessica had just ended a call with Liberty when she knocked on the bathroom door.<\/div>\n<div>Jessica entered after Hank opened the door for her.<\/div>\n<div>After a while, the two emerged from the bathroom together, with Hank carrying Jessica, her cheeks flushed. Anyone with a sense would realize what they had been doing in there.<\/div>\n<div>Once they settled back onto the large bed, Jessica nestled into Hank\u2019s arms and suddenly said, \u201cHank, I forgot to mention that your wife called.\u201d<\/div>\n<p>\u201cWhy are you asking me to go home now? I answered the call\u2014do you think she\u2019ll misinterpret our relationship?\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Upon hearing this, Hank pushed Jessica away, sat up straight, and said anxiously, \u201cWhy didn\u2019t you mention this sooner?\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Jessica felt hurt by his reaction and replied, \u201cI knocked on the door to tell you, but you distracted me\u2026 That\u2019s why I forgot. Are you worried she\u2019ll find out?\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Hank\u2019s expression softened. <\/p>\n<p>He harbored a strong dislike for Liberty. After the incident of domestic violence, they no longer shared a room, and Liberty refused to let him sleep with her even when he felt the urge. <\/p>\n<p>He had long desired Jessica and was now feeling a bit greedy after finally being with her. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cDarling,\u201d he said, quickly wrapping his arms around Jessica\u2019s shoulders. Apologetically, he continued, \u201cI\u2019m sorry for my earlier reaction. I\u2019m not afraid of Liberty finding out; in fact, I\u2019m ready to divorce her at any moment. But Sonny is still very young. I mentioned before that my parents will help with pick-ups and drop-offs when he starts kindergarten. After that, I plan to divorce Liberty.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf she discovers this now, it will disrupt my original plan, which is why I was anxious.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Hank spoke sincerely. <\/p>\n<p>He hadn\u2019t divorced Liberty immediately because he wanted to wait until their son was older and could start kindergarten, after which he intended to leave Liberty. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou should go home now and explain everything to her so she doesn\u2019t get the wrong idea about us,\u201d Jessica urged, returning to her gentle and considerate demeanor. <\/p>\n<p>Hank, however, was indifferent. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo what if she misunderstands us? I don\u2019t owe her any explanations,\u201d he replied. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cAnd what if she finds us together?\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cSo what? I\u2019m disgusted by her ugly face. I\u2019m a healthy and\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>A regular guy. Does she want me to remain abstinent? Jessica, I love you; you\u2019re my one true love.\u201d Hank embraced Jessica, offering her comfort. \u201cEven if she does come over, I\u2019ll make sure you\u2019re safe. Plus, she won\u2019t come here; it\u2019s too late, and no one else is around to look after Sonny. She wouldn\u2019t leave him home alone.\u201d<\/p>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chapter 390 Zachary locked the front door and pulled Serenity outside.
