Chapter 361


    Chapter 361 A few momentster, Serenity said, “After listening to what you‘ve said about your


    colleague, I think he‘s better than all the blind dates Jasmine had gone to. I‘ll ask her what she thinks


    tomorrow.


    “It‘ste now, Mr. York. I‘m going back to my room to wash up and sleep.” Serenity was exhausted from


    shopping. Zachary got up as well and said faintly, “Oh, good night.”


    Serenity replied with a good night and went into her room. She could not be bothered to even put away


    the things she bought from shopping and nned to leave them for tomorrow morning.


    Seeing how she went straight into the room without any intention to stay, Zachary stood where he was


    and remained silent for a long time.


    After a while, he walked out to the balcony, sat down on the swing, quietly looking at the night sky and


    wondering how both of them would go on in the future.


    Zachary was used to sleepingte, so he sat at the balcony until past eleven o‘clock before returning to


    his territory.


    The husband and wife lived in the same house, but they stayed separately. He did not enter her room,


    and neither would she step into his territory. Once the doors of the two rooms were closed, it was as if


    they had nothing to do with each other.


    It was Zachary himself who had caused this.

    The night passed without another word. The next day, Serenity woke up at her usual time.


    She habitually went to the balcony to tend to her flowers.


    Then, she saw some tiny ants on the balcony. When she bent down to have a closer look and followed


    the ant trail, she traced it back to them crawling out from several potted flowers.


    She realized why there were so many ants in the area.


    It was because the ants hatched from their eggs in the soil since she had not used any pesticide when


    she made a garden out of the balcony


    She usually watered the flowers without bending down, so she did not notice there were ants in the


    flower pots.


    After watering the nts, she took her purse and went out to the market to buy groceries for a home–


    cooked lunchter in the store. She also bought a few packs of ant repellent and sprinkled them in the


    flower pots.


    In the future, Sue had to diligently kill insects and ants for her flowers, lest the pests go out of control.


    Serenity was at the market for half an hour and came back with several bags of groceries.


    When she went upstairs, she found a middle–aged woman standing in front of her house. The woman


    was pulling out her cell phone, seemingly wanting to make a call. “Madam.”


    Serenity walked over and called out to the woman, who was startled by her greeting. She smiled and


    asked the woman,” Madam, may I ask who you‘re looking for?” Mrs. Lane blinked. ‘Is this the missus?


    ‘I was about to call Mr. Zachary and our conversation might give away his identity. Fortunately, she


    interrupted me by calling out to


    me.


    ‘Otherwise, if he picked up my call and she heard me addressing him as Mr. Zachary by habit like how


    it is back in the main residence, it might raise suspicion to the ordinary man persona he painstakingly


    crafted, or it could have also been exposed by me.‘ “Hello.”


    Mrs. Lane smiled. “I’m Mrs. Lane, the nanny Mr. York hired. I‘m here to start work today as agreed. I


    came here ording to the address that Mr. York gave me. Are you Mrs. York?”


    So it turned out to be Mrs. Lane.


    Serenity took out her keys and opened the door, saying, “Mr. York told me about you. You can just call


    me Serenity, Mrs. Lane. I‘m not too used to being called Mrs. York.” In reality, she still felt like she was


    the same free and unfettered Serenity Hunt. She only remembered that she was married when she


    saw Zachary. “That’s... not really...” Mrs. Lane was hesitant to call the missus by her name. When they


    spoke, she had already sized up Serenity. She saw that Serenity was carrying several bags of freshly


    bought groceries in her hands, and felt that Serenity was someone down–to–earth, just like Old Mrs.


    York.


    She was not arrogant or haughty like other richdies. Serenity invited Mrs. Lane into her home and


    said with a smile,” Since you‘reing to work with us, we have a professional rtionship. You can


    just call me by my name. There‘s no need to call me Missus.”


    Hearing Serenity and Mrs. Lane‘s conversation, Zachary quickly put on his clothes and came out of the


    room. “Mr. York.”
