His romantic gesture made her a little… embarrassed.
The moment he carried her, Serenity got a whiff of that familiar scent on his body and could not resist
touching his face.
Yeah, that still felt really good.
Zachary was speechless.
She said she did not want his thoughtfulness, but when he hugged her, she took the opportunity to take
advantage of him.
Wait till night fell and she-
Zachary hurriedly stopped himself and halted that train of thought, lest he could not help himself.
After cing Serenity on the ground, Zachary went to carry Sonny from the car.
“Uncle Zak,” said Sonny in his childish voice. As Zachary reached out to hug the little guy, he jumped
straight toward Zachary. Zachary reacted quickly and caught him easily before raising him high into the
air.
Sonny burst intoughter.
After teasing Sonny a little more, Zachary put Sonny down and stopped ying with him. He asked,
“Sonny, did you miss Uncle Zak?”
Sonny nodded. “Yeah.”
Zachary had a gentle expression on his face as he bent down to kiss Sonny on both his cheeks. “Uncle
Zak missed Sonny a lot too.”
Once Liberty got out of the car, he greeted her as well.
Liberty responded with a smile.
“Ms. Hunt.”
Jim walked over and greeted Serenity.
She smiled and asked, “Are you guys not going home for the holidays?”
Most of the people in the neighborhood had returned to their parents‘ homes for New Year. Only a
minority had stayed in Wiltspoon.
Jim grinned sheepishly as he replied, “It’s expensive to go back. I can’t save up much in a year and
once it’s New Year, I have to spend it all anyway. Every year, I’m left with pretty much nothing. So this
year, I don’t n to go back and spend it with my parents. I’m just going to transfer some money to
them. That way, I’ll still have a little left.”
Still smiling, Serenity said, “That’s fair. Or you could also bring your parents over.”
A regr person would only be able to save a few thousand bucks at the end of the year. With all the
expenses for the festive season, money would be spent in a sh. Celebrating Christmas and New
Year was not cheap indeed.
After buying gifts for one’s rtives, elders, and children, one also had to ount for gatherings with
friends and old ssmates. Just like that, a person’s money would soundlessly evaporate.
Some who had children who were still studying and had tuition fees that needed to be paid had to be
extra cautious about their expenditures.
“They don’t like it here. They said they’re not familiar with the people nor the environment here with no
one to talk to, so it’s much morefortable to stay where they are.”
Serenity expressed her understanding.
“Ms. Hunt, Mr. York has asked me to help move the things from your car to his car. He said the two of
you will be returning to the old residence for New Year.”
Serenity looked toward Zachary. She did not have any particr disagreement with his arrangements.
Thus, Jim removed everything from Serenity’s car and then moved them to Zachary’s national MPV,
Some of the items were Liberty and Sonny’s, so they remained in Serenity’s car.
Jim was done with the moving in just a few minutes.
Once he was done, Zachary dug out his wallet from his pocket and opened it in front of Serenity. He
took out a hundred bucks and handed it to Jim, saying, “Jim, this is the moving fee.”
Jim epted the hundred–dor bill and smiled as he thanked Zachary. He then took out his own
wallet and shoved the hundred dors into it. He then said to Zachary and Serenity, “Mr. York, Ms.
Hunt, if there’s anything you need in the future, just give me a call. I can do anything as long as I’m
paid for it.”
Serenity chuckled. “Sure. I’ll definitely give you a call if there’s anything I need help with.”
Jim swept a lightning–quick nce at Zachary and said, “Then I’ll make a move. I’ll be around the
neighborhood to see if I can get some more business and earn a little more money to usher the new
year.”
Serenity nodded.
Jim walked away as if nothing was wrong..
