Although she fell asleep afterward, she was not really drunk. How could she have vomited if she wasn\u2019t intoxicated?<\/div>\n<div>Could it have been because she ate too much the night before?<\/div>\n<div>Serenity felt a bit doubtful. However, since it was merely a drawing and Zachary had no reason to deceive her, she decided to let it go.<\/div>\n<div>Taking Liberty\u2019s advice to heart, she resolved to drink less in the future.<\/div>\n<div><\/div>\n<div>\u201cDo you want to try to get it back?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cHow would you even retrieve it? Even if you could, it\u2019s all mangled. That\u2019s fine; I\u2019ll just redraw it.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Zachary replied with regret, \u201cI didn\u2019t realize that drawing was so significant. I just grabbed it without thinking. Next time, make sure to keep your drawing off the dresser; it\u2019s too close to the bed.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cOkay.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Serenity thought to herself, \u2018Well, this kind of thing can\u2019t happen every day\u2026\u2019<\/div>\n<div>Nor would she drink every day either.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cMr. York, there\u2019s no need to feel sorry. It\u2019s my fault for not putting it away properly. Don\u2019t worry; I\u2019ll redraw it myself.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>\u201cI can buy you a real golden hairpin as a reference.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Serenity quickly declined his offer. \u201cNo need for that. I\u2019ll just recreate the sample myself.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Zachary had no choice but to relent.<\/div>\n<div>How could he have suspected that she married him at first sight for his money?<\/div>\n<div>Perhaps it was because his grandmother nagged him daily and Serenity had saved her, leading him to believe that Serenity was seeking a reward. That was likely why Zachary had initially held such a prejudice against her.<\/div>\n<div>He had misunderstood her and kept his guard up.<\/div>\n<div>Zachary had even signed a troublesome agreement intended to restrain her. Who would have guessed that she would adhere to the agreement while he was\u2026<\/p>\n<p>be the one feeling restrained?\u201d He reflected on how he had sabotaged their agreement the previous night, yet he enjoyed the breakfast his wife had prepared. A sense of relief washed over him, lifting the weight from his chest and alleviating his pressure. <\/p>\n<p>After breakfast, Serenity cleared the dishes while Zachary took the cup of coffee she made for him and stepped out onto the balcony. He settled onto the swing and sipped his coffee at a leisurely pace. <\/p>\n<p>Although it was instant coffee, Zachary considered it the best he had ever tasted. <\/p>\n<p>As the sun rose higher, November in Wiltspoon felt unusually warm whenever the sun was shining. Serenity wore short sleeves throughout the day, and ladies could be seen in skirts and dresses on the streets. <\/p>\n<p>Serenity, however, rarely donned skirts or dresses. Zachary suddenly found himself curious about how she would look in a dress; she must be stunning. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI thought you were going to work,\u201d he said as Serenity, having finished washing the dishes, stepped outside to admire the flowers, spotting Zachary on the swing with his coffee. She smiled and remarked, \u201cDon\u2019t you think I picked the right chair?\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cYeah, it\u2019s nice,\u201d he replied. <\/p>\n<p>Serenity joined him, glancing at the flowers on the stand. \u201cThat\u2019s only because your balcony has enough space. In a smaller balcony, planting flowers would be a waste, not to mention adding a swing chair.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cAre you getting used to this coffee?\u201d he asked. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s fine as long as it does the trick,\u201d she answered. <\/p>\n<p>Leaning back in her chair, Serenity added, \u201cI just ordered an automatic coffee machine and some coffee beans online. I won\u2019t let you drink instant coffee again; it just feels wrong.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Zachary admitted, \u201cThis is the first time I\u2019ve had instant coffee.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cI figured as much. You\u2019ll\u2026\u201d<\/p>\n<p>\u201cToday is just something we have to endure.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Zachary was a manager at a large company, ensuring his coffee was always freshly ground. <\/p>\n<p>After finishing his cup of coffee, the couple sat together on the swing chair on the balcony before Zachary sent his wife to the store and headed straight to the office.<\/p>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<div id=\"text-chapter-toolbar\">\n\t\t\t\t<a href=\"#\"><i class=\"icon ion-md-settings\"><\/i><\/a>\n\t\t\t<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chapter 402 Serenity had no memory of the incident at all.
