Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 817

Chapter 817

“This is your true personality. You’re always self–centered and lord over everything You’re overbearing, arrogant, egotistical, and even paranoid!”

Serenity’s words were full of mockery.

That was Zachary’s character.

He behaved the same way at the beginning of their marriage. Even if he pretended to be an ordinary person, his mannerisms were ingrained in him and could not be changed.

It was only after the couple’s feelings warmed up and they had two conflicts that his overbearing self improved slightly.

Now, he revealed his true colors again.

It was suffocating to be with a Zachary York like that.

That was especially true for Serenity, a woman who liked her independence. If she had a conflict with a man like Zachary, the fight would escalate and only worsen.

Zachary clearly wanted to calm Serenity down, but he kept making mistakes that exacerbated his case, causing her anger to soar even higher. There was no way to extinguish the fury now.

“Seren…”

Zachary let her go and instead touched her face lightly, saying as if he was in pain, Don’t go to Shawn, okay? It took me a lot of effort to drive him out of Wiltspoon so he wouldn’t be able to see you again. Don’t go to him.”

“You drove Shawn out of Wiltspoon? Did you say something to Aunt Rachel?”

After her questioning, she added wryly, “What do I have to be surprised about? I don’t even know how many things you’ve done behind my back. Heh. Zachary, do you even regard me as your family?

“Then again, I’m not your family. Women are still outsiders even if they marry into another family. They’re just guests. With what audacity could I expect you to treat me as family… You kept so many things from me and lied to me for so long. You’re just treating me like an outsider…”

Serenity’s eyes reddened with injustice as she spoke, but she forced herself not to cry.

She did not want to cry in front of Zachary. She did not want to be comforted by a hypocrite like him.

“Seren, you’re my family. You’re the wife I want to spend the rest of my life with. I know I let you down. I hurt you and destroyed your trust in me, but I promise…”

Serenity looked at him coldly. The ice and obvious mockery in her eyes made it so Zachary could not finish his sentence.

His promise was not worth anything to her anymore.

What if she asked for the stars in the sky?

Serenity took the two bunches of keys and slapped the back of his hand. When he loosened his grip a little, she stepped on his foot so hard that he instinctively jumped up and released her.

She threw the two keyrings to his chest and said coldly, “Thank you for the generosity, Mr. York, but I can’t afford to accept it!”

Then, she turned to leave.

“Seren!”

“Zachary York.”

When Zachary was about to catch up, Serenity stopped, turned around, and coldly warned him, “If you dare sneak up behind me and knock me out again, I’ll cut ties with you immediately!”

Zachary was too afraid to sneak up on her again.

He also could not bear to knock her out again. He felt distressed because her neck would hurt.
