    After calling Zachary, Serenity told her sister that she would be going back to Brynfield in the evening to


    have a talk with him before returning to the rented apartment.


    Liberty said, “That’s fine. It doesn’t matter howte you are. I’ll leave the door open. for you.”


    After the phone call, Serenity did not go back to the store immediately. She walked alone on the streets


    along the river in front of the school.


    Her mind slowly calmed down as the cold wind blew.


    The most important problem in front of them was not the question of whether she was angry or not, but


    the reality gap between them.

    As she walked, she realized that she had walked quite a ways. She stopped and turned to walk back.


    When she turned around, she saw that Jasmine was following her from afar. She paused before


    walking toward her friend.


    “I’ll get over it.”


    Jasmine smiled. “I know you will. I just figured that I should follow you so I can hear you if you shout if


    you need anything.”


    Serenity looked at Jasmine for a moment and suddenly hugged her. She said gratefully, “Jasmine, I’m


    so lucky to have you as my best friend.”


    “I could say the same thing.”


    Jasmine patted Serenity’s back and let her go so they could walk side by side. She asked, “Shall we go


    back to eat?”


    “I told Zachary to pick me up,” Serenity answered.


    Jasmine looked at her. “Have you decided to forgive him?”


    “I’m just angry at him. I don’t hate him. What I should face now is the gap between us. I want to have a


    good talk with him.”


    Jasmine hummed. “Yeah, you should talk it out. Communication is very important between people.”


    Serenity nodded.


    Zachary came quickly.


    Josh followed him over. He came to invite Jasmine to dinner.


    Jasmine and he watched Serenity get into Zachary’s car. When Zachary’s car drove. away, Josh


    nudged Jasmine’s arm and asked, “Have they made up? Zachary looked like he had just won the


    lottery when he came out of the office. It looked like he might start floating.”


    “The money he gets from winning the lottery can’tpare to his savings. What does he have to be


    excited about? Seren is only willing to talk to him now. They won’t reconcile that quickly, but the


    problem has to be solved. Like I said, Serenity. won’t run away from her problems. She just needs


    some time to calm down and think about the solutions.”


    Josh praised her. “Yes, yes, yes, you’re the most beautifuldy. Everything you say is right.”


    Jasmine red at him. “That sounds like sarcasm, not apliment. When have I evermented on


    my appearance? Besides, I won’t dare talk about my face in front of bigwigs like you.”


    “I was wrong. I shouldn’t have said that.”


    Joshughed. “Let’s go. I’ll treat you to Italian.”


    “Call Drake.”


    Josh was speechless and reluctantly said, “Sure.”


    Well, it was his fault for going for the brother–inw route first. Now, his future brother -inw had


    be the third wheel.


    He shot himself in the foot.


    Back at Brynfield, Zachary said, “You watch TV first, Seren. I’ll go cook.”


    Zachary entered the house, took off his suit jacket, and walked straight into the kitchen. He took the


    apron from the hook and put it on. “We can talk after dinner.”


    After receiving Serenity’s call, Zachary called Mrs. Lane and told her to send groceries over. However,


    he did not let her cook as he wanted to cook by himself.


    Serenity did not say anything and silently went to the balcony to water the flowers.


    Zachary suddenly rushed out and reminded her nervously, “Don’t let water get to your hand, Seren. It’ll


    get infected.”
