It\u2019s my mother\u2019s eightieth birthday. Would you honor us by joining the party?\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Instead of responding to Mr. Jefferson, Zachary spoke quietly, \u201cJim.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Jim stepped forward, carrying a gift.<\/div>\n<div>Zachary said, \u201cI apologize for the intrusion. This is a small gift for the birthday girl. I wish your mother happiness and longevity.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>Even though Zachary would not be attending the celebration, he showed respect for Old Mrs. Jefferson by preparing a gift.<\/div>\n<div>Jim handed the present to Mr. Jefferson, who graciously accepted it and thanked Zachary profusely.<\/div>\n<div>Standing there, Zachary looked quite dashing. The bouquet appeared stunning under the night lights.<\/div>\n<div>Noticing that Zachary had no intention of entering, Mr. Jefferson refrained from insisting and instructed the maid to fetch Serenity.<\/div>\n<div>However, Mr. Jefferson did not need to do this, as Zachary\u2019s arrival created quite a stir. Serenity, who had been enjoying food in a corner, was startled. Upon realizing Zachary was there, she set down her cutlery and told Elisa she would see what was happening.<\/div>\n<div>\u201cZachary.\u201d<\/div>\n<div>As she exited the corner, Serenity recognized Zachary. She called his name and had to stop herself from running when she remembered she was wearing high stilettos.<\/div>\n<div>Zachary\u2019s gaze was fixed on her. He had to admit that Serenity looked stunning in those heels. She resembled a princess straight out of a fairy tale, adorned in her evening gown, light makeup, and jewelry.<\/div>\n<div>He maintained a serious expression in front of Mr. Jefferson and the others. However, the moment his eyes landed on Serenity,<\/p>\n<p>His tense facial muscles relaxed into a smile as Zachary focused solely on her. <\/p>\n<p>\u201cSeren,\u201d he said, carrying the bouquet of roses. He brushed past Mr. Jefferson and made his way directly to his princess.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWhy are you here?\u201d Serenity inquired.<\/p>\n<p>Zachary presented her with the flowers and replied softly, \u201cI bought these from Spring Blossoms.\u201d <\/p>\n<p>Serenity would be pleased to know that Zachary supported Camryn\u2019s business. As she accepted the bouquet, he said in a low voice, \u201cI\u2019m here to take you home.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Lifting her chin, Serenity smiled and responded, \u201cIt\u2019s early. It\u2019s only nine o\u2019clock.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Zachary gazed deeply into her eyes, remaining silent. Serenity blinked, recalling her promise to him. She found herself at a loss for words.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI need to let Aunt Audrey and Elisa know,\u201d she said. Since he was holding her to her word, she had to follow through.<\/p>\n<p>Affection radiated from his eyes as he held her hand and led her to the car. \u201cWe can leave a message with Mr. Jefferson. He\u2019ll relay it to your aunt and cousin,\u201d Zachary suggested.<\/p>\n<p>Serenity looked at him, both amused and speechless. She had whispered a promise in his ear just the other day, and now he had come early to pick her up from the Jeffersons\u2019 residence. She hoped she could wake up in time for work tomorrow.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cWe\u2019re leaving now, Mr. Jefferson. Please inform Mrs. Stone that I\u2019m taking Seren home,\u201d Zachary said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cAlright,\u201d came the reply from Mrs. Stone, who was standing nearby with a few other ladies, watching the scene unfold.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cI have to go, Aunt Audrey,\u201d Serenity called out.<\/p>\n<p>Mrs. Stone nodded in understanding, smiling warmly. Serenity felt\u2026<\/p>\n<p>embarrassed.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<div>It was unfortunate that her partner lacked any sense of shame. As onlookers observed, he guided her into the<\/div>\n<div>car and closed the door, preventing anyone from probing further.<\/div>\n<div class=\"fpm_end\"><\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Chapter 1116 The clock struck nine.
