Love at First Novel

Chapter 109

Zachary stood at the door to the balcony and watched Serenity quietly for a minute before turning on his heel to leave for work. All this happened without Serenity knowing

Carrying his wife‘s packed lunch for him, Zachary was on his way to work.

Before leaving, he said to Serenity, “I‘m off to work.”

“Drive safe,” Serenity replied kindly.

Zachary closed the door and carried two containers of food down the stairs.

His bodyguard squad was waiting for him there. They were either caught standing , perching, or sitting in the

greenery. Having caught sight of Zachary descending with food containers in hand, the bodyguards got on their feet and stared at him. No one drew close to Zachary.

Zachary was speechless.

What? Did they not recognize him because he was carrying containers of food?

“Sir.”

Thinking on his feet, Jim took quick paces over and

attentively took the packed food from Zachary.

Without a word, Jim headed straight to the Rolls Royce. This content belongs to Nô/velDra/ma.Org .

Soon, the Rolls Royce drove out of the neighborhood escorted by the bodyguards‘ vehicles.

Serenity happened to look down from the balcony and saw the luxury sedans, which were commonly spotted in the neighborhood, driving away in convoy. She also caught sight of her man‘s national MPV tagging along at the very end.

It was better to give way to the expensive cars than cut into their lane. God forbid if anyone crashed into them. The repair cost would be too much of a burden for ordinary people to afford.

The area must be one of the finest neighborhoods since a resident was driving a ten–million–dollar Rolls Royce here. Serenity wondered how much Zachary paid for the house.

Zachary worked as a senior executive at a major corporation. However, Serenity knew nothing beyond that. She never asked him either. Since he kept his guard up against her, Zachary‘s mind would go on the deep end again if she started asking questions about his job. After Zachary was gone, Serenity nourished the flowers with water and took a seat on the swing. She had time to read the netizen‘s comments after her big response.

Seeing that the netizens were having a go at her relatives, Serenity felt at ease.

There were people who advised Serenity to forgive and forget since it was all in the past. Plus, her grandmother was sick and frail now. Nevertheless, other netizens jumped to Serenity‘s defense whenever these comments turned up.

It was unwise to judge a person until others had walked a mile in their shoes.

People were unlikely to let bygones be bygones if they were in Serenity‘s shoes.

Serenity believed barely a handful of them would be able to put everything behind.

Nevertheless, it was always easier said than done.

Serenity was out the door after a quick rest. Needless to say, she went to visit her sister first.

Liberty had already left to get groceries with her son by the time Serenity arrived at her place. Serenity called her sister and found out that her sister would not be back any time soon, so she made her way to the bookshop.

The Coo‘s office

Having made himself a nice cup of coffee, Callum was walking out of the pantry and ran into Zachary who

knocked on the door and came right in. “Zack,” Callum said as he approached Zachary. Spotting the boxes of packed food in Zachary‘s hands, Callum uttered with a smile, “Are you here to deliver me breakfast, Zack?”
