Chapter 255


    Serenity got in her car and sped off.


    Zachary watched her go before walking into the bookshop. He took a look at the materials that she had


    not put away yet. He could not make sense of it, so he turned away and went into the kitchen.


    He washed the wok and put a little water in it before cing the leftovers from lunch into the wok, then


    turned on the gas to heat it up.


    Out of boredom, he casually opened the fridge and saw that it was stuffed full of seafood.


    They were all given by Elisa Stone.


    Elisa Stone was pretty generous to Serenity, even dragging a carful of seafood back for


    her.


    Thinking of how Serenity taught Elisa how to pursue him and that being the reason. Elisa gave her so


    much seafood… and that he’d eaten quite a bit at lunch…


    “Serenity? Serenity!”


    Shawn Lowe’s cries came from outside.


    Zachary immediately turned the fire down to its lowest and speedily ran into the bathroom, closing the


    door behind him..


    There was no other reason than for the fact Shawn Lowe had met him before. If Shawn saw him, his


    real identity would be exposed to Serenity.


    Zachary did not want Shawn to expose his real identity.


    Shawn walked into the bookshop and called for Serenity a few more times after seeing there was no


    one around.


    In the bathroom, Zachary pinched his nose and shouted: “Who’s there? Serenity’s not in at the


    moment. Is something the matter?”


    Hearing a stranger’s voice and having seen the national MPV parked in front of the shop, Shawn


    guessed that it was Serenity’s husband.


    He was silent for a moment before he replied: “Are you Serenity’s husband? Where did she go? It’s not


    a big deal, I’ll just give her a call.”


    “She’s probably driving at the moment. You can tell me what you have to say to her and I’ll pass on the


    message when she’s back,” Zachary said from the bathroom.


    How could Shawn tell Zachary the truth?


    He hade over to beg Serenity to apany him to the business reception at Wiltspoon Hotel that


    night.


    Although Lowe Enterprise did have its ce in Wiltspoon’s world of business, Shawn, as a sessor,


    was still in training. He was still a small fry. His father arranged for him to attend tonight’s business


    reception to expand hiswork of connections within the industry and to get to know the elites.


    Once he took over Lowe Enterprise and if the management got gutted, he would still be able to choose


    from the elites at this business reception and nurture his own confidants.


    “It’s nothing much, brother–inw.”


    Shawn walked further in. “Where are you, brother–inw?”


    He saw that there was no one in the kitchen.


    Zachary harrumphed in his heart. ‘Brother–inw? Who on earth was his brother–inw?


    You call me brother–inw, but you want to snatch my wife away!‘


    Zachary saw Shawn as his love rival, and he was his love rival indeed. Shawn was definitely waiting for


    him and Serenity to divorce.


    Even if they divorced, did Shawn really think he had a chance? If Serenity was going to fall for Shawn,


    she would have fallen for him long ago. She said it herself, that she only saw him as a little brother!


    “I’m in the bathroom. You can sit outside for a moment. I’ll be done soon.”


    “I–I have something urgent to deal with, so I won’t stay. I’ll make a move first, brother -inw.”


    Shawn did feel a little guilty.


    Even if Serenity and her husband did have a shotgun marriage, he could not ask Serenity to go with


    him to a business reception right in front of her husband’s face.


    “Alright, I won’t send you off then.”


    Zachary would never ask Shawn to stay.

    Shawn paused for a second, then turned to walk outside.
