His lips were set in a firm line, and he was silent. She then asked gently, \u201cDo you not want me to stay? The doctor mentioned that Sonny might have a fever tonight, and I\u2019m worried my sister will be too tired to care for him alone.\u201d <\/div>\n<div>Zachary reached out, his large hand grazing her face. <\/div>\n<div>His touch was tender, reminiscent of a gentle spring breeze, making Serenity want to close her eyes and savor this rare moment of affection. <\/div>\n<div>\u201cYou need to take care of yourself while looking after Sonny,\u201d Zachary finally said, his voice deep yet softened with warmth. <\/div>\n<div>\u201cI will.\u201d <\/div>\n<div>\u201cPlease inform me if anything happens. I don\u2019t want to be left out.\u201d Zachary remembered how Serenity had bravely faced Noah Hunt and his gang alone; her courage had left a lasting impression on him.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cgangsters, leaving him with no opportunity to be the hero who rescues the damsel in distress.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Serenity smiled as she glanced around the living room, hugging Zachary\u2019s slim waist when she noticed the York brothers were not watching them. She rested her head against his chest, and Zachary wrapped his arms around her tightly. He enjoyed the sensation of holding her close, and the warmth of her soft body filled him with happiness. <\/p>\n<p>Josh asked Zachary if he was in love with Serenity. Zachary pondered, \u2018Perhaps I already am in love with her\u2026\u2019 <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThank you, Zachary.\u201d Serenity said, feeling grateful. He had always been by her side whenever she faced challenges, offering help and comfort. To her, he felt like an invincible superhero. <\/p>\n<p>Many times, Serenity was deeply touched by Zachary\u2019s actions, and this gratitude slowly blossomed into affection. Zachary sighed, reflecting on Josh\u2019s words: \u2018Feeling touched is not the same as love.\u2019 Yet, he believed that this was how love began. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cSerenity, as husband and wife, your issues are also mine. Please don\u2019t keep thanking me; it makes me feel like an outsider,\u201d he said. <\/p>\n<p>Serenity nestled deeper into his embrace and replied, \u201cBut we signed a six-month agreement. Who knows how long our marriage will last?\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Zachary was left speechless. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cZachary, can I share something with you?\u201d she asked. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhat is it?\u201d he replied. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThe drawing you discarded\u2026 I just remembered that the agreement was on the other side. I didn\u2019t care much about the agreement and left it on my dresser. I used it for sketching my ideas, but then you destroyed it.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Zachary\u2019s dark eyes glinted with surprise. She recalled that the back of the drawing contained their agreement. But so what? He had already burned both copies to ashes and flushed them away. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cSince you ruined my\u2026<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWill you provide me with a new copy of the agreement, or will you also destroy your copy?\u201d This approach would help her feel less insecure about the situation.<\/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 461 Serenity and Liberty were unaware that Mr. Brown had unexpectedly sided with Sonny.
