Chapter 604


    Mrs. Lane stood up for her boss. “Ms. Hunt, I haven’t been working with you for long, but I’m a good


    judge of character. Mr. York and your former brother–inw are not the same. from type of people. Mr.


    York has a strong sense of responsibility. He won’t shrink away his duty to care for you, his wife.


    “The way I see it, Mr. York doesn’t know how to talk to women and doesn’t like it when young women


    get close to him. He rarely talks to Ms. Sox. He keeps his distance but acknowledges her presence.


    He’s a brilliant man, but he’s also the kind that won’t look at another woman. Ms. Hunt, don’t be scared


    because of your sister’s failed marriage.


    “Love is beautiful, and there are happy endings to marriages. Not everyone’s marriage is like your


    sister’s. I was a nanny to Mr. York’s youngest cousin for many years. They are a good family.


    “Mr. York’s parents, uncles, and aunts aremitted to their rtionship and marriage. The men in the


    house are responsible and loyal to their wives.


    “Mr. York is exposed to this sort of environment. Despite the many broken marriages happening


    around, he would still bemitted to his. You need tomunicate with him if you ever have a


    disagreement with him or if you find something he’s hiding from you. Put yourself in his shoes. There’s


    always a reason for people’s actions.”


    With her mind harking back to Zachary’s prideful personality, Serenity realized Zachary was a lot more


    reliable than Hank.


    Besides, Zachary was by her side through thick and thin before they even had feelings for each other.


    It showed Zachary’s sense of responsibility more than Hank’s.Content (C) N?v/elDra/ma.Org.


    She said, “Our marriage willst so long as Zachary doesn’t do anything to betray me. It can only mean


    he doesn’t trust me enough if he keeps things from me. I will be angry, but I’ll try to understand and


    be better so he has full confidence in me. That way, he wouldmunicate with me about


    anything at all.”


    Mrs. Lane incessantly nodded her head. “That’s the way to do it. It’s all about understanding and trust


    between couples. Communication and understanding are the keys to a longsting marriage.”


    Once Mr. Zachary was back from his business trip, Mrs. Lane intended to persuade him toe clean.


    The missus would only be angrier the longer he kept the truth from her.


    Serenity drank half the ss of water and looked at the time. It was eleven o’clock at night. She told


    Mrs. Lane, “It’ste, Mrs. Lane. You should get some sleep. I’m going to my room for a wash.”


    She also sent Zachary a text message.


    He reminded her repeatedly before going away that she must send him messages.


    “Goodnight, Ms. Hunt.”


    Mrs. Lane retreated to her room after saying goodnight.


    Although Grandma May was gone, Serenity continued to upy Zachary’s room instead of returning to


    her room.


    Half an hourter, shey in bed with the covers over her. Still feeling cold, she got up and turned on


    the heater to warm the ce up.


    She then sent a text message to Zachary.


    [Hot water bottle, are you done for the day yet?]


    Zachary was swamped with work, but he had been keeping an eye on his phone. He was upset that he


    had not received a single message from Serenity. Sure, he told her to drop in a message at night, but


    she did not have to wait until midnight to do so.


    Did she really not miss him?


    It sounded about right. She was humming to a tune, wishing he would leave right away when she


    packed his luggage.


    As if she would miss him.


    Now that she finally sent him a message, Serenity called him a hot water bottle.


    It took a lot in Zachary not to blow up.


    Could not be bothered to type, Zachary gave Serenity a call.
