Chapter 364
Mrs. Lane smiled when she saw Serenity eat with such enthusiasm. As she watched, she suddenly felt
hungry as well. She stopped looking at Zachary and started to eat with gusto.
While Mrs. Lane brought the dishes to the kitchen to wash them after the meal, Serenity pulled up a
chair and slowly walked to Zachary.
Zachary instantly straightened up like a defensive hedgehog.
The difference this time was, he was not guarding against her. Instead, he was nervous and had no
idea what his wife wanted to do to him.
“Mr. York, we have a guest room, but there‘s no bed. After we pick Sonny up later, we‘ll send Mrs. Lane
and Sonny back to the store. We‘ll have to go and buy a bed and sheets for her since we can‘t let her
sleep on the floor.”
The hedgehog‘s quills flattened at once. “You‘re the lady of the house. You can arrange it however you
like.” Zachary had an important meeting this morning and could not spare the time to accompany
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSerenity to buy the beddings.
“Have you run out of the ten thousand I gave you previously? When I get to the office later, I‘ll use a
computer to transfer some money to the living–expenses card. Although we hired Mrs. Lane as a
nanny to take care of Sonny, we can‘t treat her poorly. Buy a higher–quality bed and cabinet. Don‘t feel
bad about spending the money.”
“I haven‘t used up the money, so you don‘t have to transfer more. There‘s enough money left to buy the
furniture for Mrs. Lane. Don‘t worry, I‘m not the kind of person who would abuse the nanny.” Serenity‘s
face reddened a bit when he mentioned the living–expenses bank card.
When they were having a cold war, she was in a bad mood and went out on a mad shopping spree.
She swiped the card used for living expenses
and spent quite a lot of his money.
Serenity decided to use her own money later when she went shopping as a way to make up for her act
of abusing the living–expenses card.
In a family, both the husband and wife had to contribute. She would not take advantage of him, and he
would not scheme against her.
They coexisted peacefully and respected each other like a guest. Zachary‘s face was gentle, but his
eyes were like a bottomless and unfathomable pit when he looked at her.
However, not a word came from him.
Serenity was used to his habit of staring at her silently. In fact, she would find it abnormal if he spoke
more.
Zachary was speechless still. “Oh, it‘s getting late. We have to hurry to fetch Sonny from my sister‘s
place. My sister has to go to work.”
Liberty was riding her own bike to work today, so there was no need to pick her up and drop her off
again.
Zachary hummed and stood up.
He walked back to his room.
Soon, he came out again.
In his hand was an extra suit jacket as well as a tie.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe simply held them in his hands, neither tying the tie nor putting the jacket on.
Serenity was waiting for Mrs. Lane at the kitchen door.
Perhaps because Zachary‘s gaze was intense, Serenity looked over and saw him staring at her. She
blinked, smiled at him, and turned back to Mrs. Lane,
Seeing that Mrs. Lane finished washing the dishes, she said with a smile, “We have to go now, Mrs.
Lane. Your daytime job is mainly to help me take care of my two–year–old nephew, Sonny. He‘s very
obedient when he wants to be, and equally naughty when he‘s feeling mischievous.
Mrs. Lane removed her apron and laughed as she walked out. “All children are like that.”
When Sam arranged for her to come over, he made it clear to her what her job was.
Zachary would increase her pay as long as she did her job well.
Zachary was still standing there with his jacket and tie in his hands. Serenity did not know what he
wanted, but Mrs Lane did.
She whispered something to Serenity.
Serenity instantly looked at Zachary.
‘That‘s what he wants?
‘But I don‘t know how to help a man tie a tie. ‘Is it too late to search the steps online and learn now?‘
