I\u2019m old and can\u2019t stay up late.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>She took a few steps, paused, and turned back to ask Serenity, \u201cSeren, would you like me to bring your pillow out?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Serenity smiled and replied, \u201cNo need. There are pillows in the guest room for me.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Grandma May glanced at her grandson twice but chose not to say anything further. She then went into Serenity\u2019s room.<\/div>\n<div>By the time Serenity decided to shower, the old lady was already snoring loudly.<\/div>\n<div>Serenity was left speechless.<\/div>\n<div>Ten minutes later,<\/div>\n<div>She emerged from the bathroom in her pajamas. Just as she closed the door, she noticed her man in his robe, leaning against the doorframe of his room with his arms crossed.<\/div>\n<div asleep yet you have work tomorrow.>\n<div>Serenity casually remarked to him, feigning forgetfulness about teasing him earlier. She walked past him toward the guest room.<\/div>\n<div>However, when she opened the door to the guest room, she was taken aback.<\/div>\n<div>The bedsheet was missing.<\/div>\n<div>The quilt was gone.<\/div>\n<div>The pillow was also absent.<\/div>\n<div>She had definitely purchased a complete set of bedding. Where had it gone?<\/div>\n<div>Had it been stolen?<\/div>\n<div>That didn\u2019t seem likely; a thief wouldn\u2019t only steal bedding.<\/div>\n<div>She turned her head to look at the smug man still leaning against the door. He must have seized the opportunity while she was in the shower to remove all the bedding from the guest room.<\/div>\n<div>Zachary remained silent, simply watching her.<\/div>\n<div>Serenity turned around and<\/p>\n<p>She walked back toward him, pausing briefly before entering his room. As she stepped inside, she remarked, \u201cI recall someone saying he\u2019d leave the door open for me to search for the agreement.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Zachary waited for her to enter before following her in. He shut the door behind him and calmly replied, \u201cBe my guest. If you can\u2019t find it, please don\u2019t mention the agreement again in the future, because it simply doesn\u2019t exist.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Aside from the safe that had yet to be opened, she had already searched every corner of the room. Serenity feigned casualness as she rummaged through the space, eventually approaching his safe and giving it a pat. \u201cOpen it and let me see. You must have hidden it in here.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Zachary walked over and unlocked the safe. Serenity looked at him before opening it, revealing only a small document inside: their marriage license. There was nothing else.<\/p>\n<p>She took out the marriage license and inspected the safe, confirming that it was indeed empty. \u201cThere\u2019s not even a penny here. What did you buy a safe for?\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Zachary replied matter-of-factly, \u201cTo keep our marriage license.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cIf you\u2019d like to put money in there, I can go to the bank tomorrow after work to withdraw some cash and bring it back to store in the safe. You can use it whenever you want.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>\u201cThere\u2019s still money on the household expenses card you gave me.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Serenity turned the marriage license over to view their wedding photo, which looked quite unnatural.<\/p>\n<div>\u201cLook at your face back then. You were like an iceberg. I was worried I\u2019d freeze and turn into an ice sculpture while taking the wedding photos.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Zachary sat down beside her and glanced at the photo on the license. \u201cYou weren\u2019t exactly enthusiastic either. The photographer kept urging you to lean closer, but you were frozen stiff. You didn\u2019t move an inch.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Serenity was left speechless.<\/div>\n<div>It was a case of the pot calling the kettle black.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cSeren, please don\u2019t bring up the agreement again. It\u2019s gone. Even if it weren\u2019t, I would have probably flushed it down the drain by now.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Serenity looked at him, diving deep into pondering what he could mean.<\/div>\n<div>He was going back on his word\u2014that was what he meant. He had taken advantage of that night when she was a little drunk to destroy her copy of the agreement. He feared she would wake up and look for it, so he destroyed his own copy as well.<\/div>\n<div>When she remembered to ask him about it, he shamelessly denied it, claiming that she had been worrying too much lately and was hallucinating.<\/div>\n<div>He was clearly trying to avoid shooting himself in the foot again. Serenity mulled over his words but chose not to press him on his lies.<\/div>\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<\/p><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chapter 485 After soothing Serenity, Grandma May yawned elegantly, set down the TV remote, and announced to the young couple, [&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-12286","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\/12286","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=12286"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/12286\/revisions"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=12286"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=12286"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/kezpres.xyz\/novelreading\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=12286"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
