Chapter 1343<\/div>\n
Zachary smiled affectionately and held her close.<\/div>\n
He felt like the luckiest man in the world to be able to call her his wife.<\/div>\n
It wasn\u2019t long before Serenity drifted off to sleep.<\/div>\n
After confirming that she was soundly asleep, Zachary removed his suit jacket and draped it over her, taking care not to disturb her rest.<\/div>\n
\u201cTake us back to the hilltop villa,\u201d Zachary quietly instructed the driver.<\/div>\n
The driver nodded obediently.<\/div>\n
With that, Zachary settled into the backseat, cradling his beloved wife in his arms. He closed his eyes and began to rest.<\/div>\n
By the time they reached the villa, he had also fallen asleep.<\/div>\n
The driver stopped the car and then turned to check on Zachary and Serenity, who were both peacefully asleep in the backseat. He glanced at Jim in the front passenger seat and asked, \u201cJim, should we wake Mr. Zachary and Mrs. up?\u201d<\/div>\n
Jim quickly responded, \u201cOf course! Are you just going to let them sleep in the car all night? If you do, you may find yourself out of a job by morning.\u201d<\/div>\n
The driver chuckled and suggested, \u201cAlright, Jim, why don\u2019t you wake them up?\u201d<\/div>\n
\u201cYou\u2019re the driver; I\u2019m just the bodyguard,\u201d Jim replied.<\/div>\n
\u201cMr. Zachary prefers you and gets along well with you. Plus, the missus is generally friendlier with you too, isn\u2019t she? I think it\u2019s best if you wake them up. They\u2019re less likely to mind you than me interrupting their sleep.\u201d<\/div>\n
Jim countered, \u201cMr. Zachary feels that way about me because I\u2019ve always been attentive and followed his instructions. I had to maintain that image for quite some time before I finally gained the missus\u2019s trust.\u201d<\/div>\n
He had deliberately worked to earn the missus\u2019s trust for a considerable time.<\/div>\n
In the past, it was Old Mr. and Old Mrs. York who managed the family affairs.<\/p>\n

The atmosphere in the house had shifted since the missus arrived, and he understood that if he wanted a raise or a promotion, he needed to earn her trust above all else. <\/p>\n

The Yorks had hired numerous bodyguards, but Jim was the only one the missus recognized by name, a fact he took pride in. <\/p>\n

\u201cJim\u2026\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cAlright, I\u2019ll wake them up.\u201d <\/p>\n

Jim ceased his banter with the driver and called out in a bright voice, \u201cSir, we\u2019ve arrived.\u201d <\/p>\n

Zachary barely stirred. <\/p>\n

Jim attempted to rouse him again. <\/p>\n

Finally, it appeared that Zachary was awake. <\/p>\n

The driver then chimed in, \u201cSir, we\u2019re home.\u201d <\/p>\n

Jim shot him a glance, and the driver responded with a sly smile. <\/p>\n

Jim refrained from saying more; he realized that everyone was ultimately looking out for their own interests. <\/p>\n

Once Zachary was awake, Jim and the driver exited the vehicle and opened the door for him. <\/p>\n

Zachary made no effort to wake Serenity. He doubted she would awaken, as she was completely out cold. She had a tendency to fall into a deep sleep after drinking and wouldn\u2019t stir even in a raging thunderstorm. <\/p>\n

He stepped out of the car, carrying Serenity in his arms. <\/p>\n

Sam, the butler, emerged from the house to greet him. <\/p>\n

\u201cWelcome back, sir.\u201d <\/p>\n

\u201cKeep your voice down; she\u2019s asleep,\u201d <\/p>\n

Sam immediately fell silent upon hearing this and followed Zachary into the house. <\/p>\n

Once inside, Zachary made his way to the upstairs bedroom, still cradling Serenity. <\/p>\n

Sam waited until Zachary had ascended the staircase and was out of sight before turning around and heading outside. He called over to Jim, who was about to take a break, and kept his voice low, \u201cDid anything<\/p>\n

\u201cWhat happened to them at the banquet tonight?\u201d
\n\u201cNothing unusual.\u201d
\n\u201cThey didn\u2019t get into a fight or anything like that, did they?\u201d
\nJim bluntly replied, \u201cSam, you\u2019re not secretly hoping they would get into a fight, are you?\u201d
\n\u201cYou brat! I just wanted clarification in case I say something I shouldn\u2019t tomorrow.\u201d
\n\u201cNo, they would never fight. Have you seen how much Mr. Zachary pampers the missus?\u201d
\nSam felt relieved to hear this and shared, \u201cThis morning, the missus woke up earlier than usual to visit her sister. Mrs. Lane told me that when Mr. Zachary woke up and found the missus missing, he was quite upset.\u201d
\nMr. Zachary was a very loving husband to the missus, but he could be overbearing at times.
