Chapter 256 Zachary only came out of the bathroom when he heard Shawn’s footsteps fade into the distance.

and He was thankful for two things right then and there. One for Nana calling him over, two for himself

resisting his pride and taking the out that Nana offered him. Otherwise, Shawn would have the chance

to be alone with Serenity.

Shawn walked out of the bookshop, got into his car, and drove away. However, just as he reached a

junction, he stopped his car and called Serenity.

Serenity quickly picked up his call.

“What’s up, Shawn?”

“Serenity, are you free later? Around 7:30 pm.”

“Why?”

Serenity did not say if she was free but instead straightforwardly asked him why.

Shawn hesitated before saying, “I have to attend a business reception at Wiltspoon. Hotel in a while. I

need a female companion. You know me, I don’t have a girlfriend yet, so I wanted to ask for your help

to accompany me to the reception.”

“Get Jasmine to go with you. I’m not free. My husband’s still waiting in the bookshop. to have dinner

with me.” Serenity rejected his invitation without a second thought.

She saw Shawn as a younger brother, but Zachary misunderstood her and thought she was treating

Shawn as a backup partner.

Although she had no intention to do so, she would still minimize the chances of her being alone with

Shawn, or even better, if there were not any at all.

Speaking of which, the last time she treated Shawn to a meal, Jasmine was there too. They were not

alone together, but Zachary still managed to misunderstand after seeing them and thinking she was

cheating on him with Shawn. That really pissed her off.

Why was it that in Zachary’s eyes, she was someone who could not wait to find her next partner?

Shawn felt uncomfortable in his heart upon hearing Serenity bring up her husband, but he did not show

it and proceeded to beg. “Serenity, are you really going to eat dinner all the way till seven o’clock later?

Please help me out. Jas always has something going on at night. She can’t help me with this.”

“Must you

have a female companion? I don’t need until 7 pm to have my dinner, but I still have to watch the shop.

And anyway, I’m married. Shawn, I’ve always treated you as my younger brother, but in others‘ eyes,

we’re not blood–related.

“If I were to accompany you to this business reception, what would they think of us?”

Shawn knew Serenity did not see him as a man at all and only did think of him as a younger brother.

That did not stop Shawn from feeling hurt to hear her actually say it out loud, that she only saw him as

a younger brother.

If only he had known earlier that Serenity needed a man to get into a shotgun marriage with, he would

definitely have helped her.

Unfortunately, there was no such thing.

Serenity was probably put off by the fact that he was three years younger than her. She had never

considered him as an option and would rather marry a stranger than him!

Shawn understood that in his heart, but still could not help but hope.

Jas had said that Serenity and her husband had signed an agreement and would divorce after half a

year.

Once she was divorced, he would definitely confess his feelings to her.

“Serenity, that’s just what they think. Who cares what they say? Our consciences are clear.”

Serenity was silent for a moment before she said with complete honesty, “Shawn, my husband minds a

lot if I’m spending time alone with other men.”

Shawn might really have just been looking for a female companion and did not mean anything else by

it, but Serenity had to drill into Shawn’s head that she was now a married woman!

pay attention to her proximity to men.

Shawn was speechless.

“Shawn, I’m going to start driving, so I’ll hang up now. If you really need someone to go with you, get

Jas to go. What could she have tonight? Isn’t it just watching dramas? If you just mention it to her,

she’d definitely help you with this.”
