Chapter 1228
Unable to stand the wait, Serenity gave Zachary a call.
The phone was ringing, but Zachary did not pick up.
“Is he really jealous?” she mumbled to herself as she gave up calling him.
She placed her phone on the cash register and sat in silence for a while before taking out her crafting tools. She
might as well pick up on crafting since she had nothing to do.
Serenity was only getting to it when a bouquet of flowers appeared before her eyes.
Lifting her chin, Serenity met a pair of beady eyes.
“You… Why didn’t you pick up your phone? You could’ve at least answered your text message.”
Dropping the crafting, Serenity took the bouquet and groaned.
Zachary looked deeply into her eyes and replied, “I’m here now, so I didn’t take the call. I was busy during the day
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtso I could get off work early today.”
Seeing that she had finished a miniature tree, he picked up the copper wire product for a look.
“Didn’t you hire people? Don’t tire yourself out. You need to watch your hands.”
Zachary put down the miniature tree and held her once–injured hand. The injury was no more, but a scar was left
behind as evidence of her carelessness. He caressed the scar, reflecting the heartache in his eyes.
She got hurt because of him.
“The flowers are fresh.”
Not wanting Zachary to blame himself further, Serenity withdrew her arm and changed the topic. “Didn’t Mr.
Bucham buy out all the roses from every florist in Wiltspoon?”
Since Josh needed to use a lot of flowers for his proposal, Serenity assumed all florists in Wiltspoon would run out of
roses.
“I was late because of these flowers.”
Serenity looked at him, “Don’t tell me you went to your home to cut these flowers?”
Zachary dotingly dabbed her button nose and gave her scarlet lips a quick pinch before replying, “You got that
wrong. My home is your home. That is our home.
“Do you still remember that you asked Ms. Sox to get a truckload of poultry? They were raised in the orchard near
the estate. They laid a lot of eggs. My mom told me to collect those eggs because nothing beats homegrown eggs.
She had a few poultry prepped and
killed so I could take them with me too.
“I dropped by and cut the bunch of flowers in the garden.”
Serenity replied, “I forgot about that…”
She did a silly thing when he put her under house arrest after she found out about who he was. Serenity had a
truckload of poultry dumped at the orchard near the estate.
She never gave it another thought after that.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“Mom said the free–range chickens are tastier, so she wanted me to bring you some. We’re only two people, plus
Nana. I doubt we can finish all of them. I’ll give some to Liberty later.” Zachary never forgot to include his sister–in–
law for the good stuff.
For this, Serenity was grateful. He cared for and respected the people who mattered to her.
“Mr. Bucham proposed to Jas.”
“I know.”
Zachary stared at her, “Are you envious, honey? I can pop the question to you in public.”
“Oh, please. We’re basically an old married couple now. We got our marriage license a long time ago. I don’t need a
proposal.”
Zachary fell silent for a moment before uttering, “I will give you the grandest wedding so you will become the envy
of all women.”
“I’m already the envy of all women.”
Zachary got to the cash register and held Serenity from the back. Sticking his chest against her back, he breathed
into her ear and could not hide the jealousy in his husky voice. He asked, “Why did Shawn come back? What did he
tell you? The look in his eyes when he stared at you… Was it as passionate as ever?”
