Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 706

Chapter 706

Clive relayed the whole phone conversation he had with Zachary to his wife, clearing any doubts that he swung both ways.

Zachary did not tell Serenity about the call from Clive to meet up.

He went back into the house and joined his wife on the sofa to watch TV.

They enjoyed the TV program until Serenity started to yawn. Zachary eagerly turned off the TV and carried her upstairs.

Back in the bedroom, Zachary lay in bed with Serenity to chat for a while. The conversation ended when the person next to him stopped speaking. Tilting his head, Zachary realized Serenity had drifted into slumberland.

Zachary heaved himself up and drew close to her before murmuring, “Seren. Seren.”

Serenity was asleep to realize what was going on around her.

With his mind at ease, Zachary kissed her cheeks and tenderly uttered, “Goodnight, Seren.”

He then lifted the covers and tiptoed out of bed.

Zachary tucked Serenity in, grabbed his coat, and snuck out of the bedroom.

Out of the villa, Zachary called his chauffeur and security detail to meet him at the Grand Hotel.

He got to make a grand entrance to see Clive.

Clive told Zachary to meet him at the Grand Hotel at midnight, and Zachary arrived at midnight sharp.

Not a minute too soon.

“Sir.”

The team of bodyguards went up to Zachary,

Zachary got down from the car and went straight inside. While walking, he said, ” Keep up.”

His security detail followed Zachary into the Grand Hotel.

Zachary would argue that his security detail was to protect his chastity and not for ostentation.

Zachary scowled. “What do you mean?”

The bodyguard explained patiently, “Mr. York, Mr. Stone said that he’s your wife’s cousin, so that makes him your relative. Since this is the first meeting, he won’t see you if all etiquette rules are not observed. You can go back, and he’ll meet with your wife tomorrow instead.”

Zachary grimaced. “How is it our first–time meeting? I’ve known Mr. Stone for many years. Don’t you know?”

“Mr. Stone mentioned that it’s your first encounter since becoming family.”

Zachary was rendered speechless.

Clive was Serenity’s family.

It was impolite to show up empty–handed when seeing the wife’s family for the first time.

Zachary fell silent for a moment before conceding. Turning around, he instructed Sam. “Sam, can you check whether there’s any shop open at this hour? Just buy anything you can find.”

So long as he got something to offer Clive.
