Chapter 820
Jasmine said, “I know Seren better than you do. I can assure you that she won’t do that, so let her come back.”
“You’re not her. I can’t trust your assurance.”
Jasmine was speechless.
He was like a rock, unwilling to listen to a single word she said.
Josh quickly took the phone back and comforted Jasmine. “Don’t mind him. He’s going crazy. He hasn’t experienced
anything like this before, so it’s normal for him to handle it badly. You’ll be the one angered if you take him
seriously.”
Jasmine opened her mouth but was at a loss for words.
Zachary was usually mature and calm. Although his expression was always solemn, he was excellent at handling
people.

“Zachary, how’s Serenity now?”
Josh asked with concern, “What did you do to her?”
“I–I didn’t do anything to her. She wanted to leave, so I locked the gate and threw the keys away. She wanted to
climb over the wall, so I threw the ladder away as well. Then, she got angry and locked herself in a room.
“Josh, I don’t know what I should do. You must be more clear–headed than me now. Tell me, what am I supposed to
do? I can’t think of anything right now. My head is a mess filled with panic and confusion.”
When Zachary fell in love, he fell hard.
Serenity had already become the most important woman in his life.
He could not bear the pain of losing her.
The reason he never came clean until now was that he was afraid of losing her.
Remy suggested he pick a special day when Serenity was happy to confess to her in a different way, which he did.
However, the storm still happened.
Chapt
He was drenched to his bones and could not see the path in front of him. He did not know which direction to go.
Throughout his thirty years of living, this was Zachary’s first time feeling this
magnitude of helplessness.
He had always been confident. He always felt that there was nothing he could not handle.
Josh thought about it and advised, “Zachary, I think Jasmine is right. Although Serenity and you are a couple, you’ve
only known each other for four months, while Jasmine has known her for more than ten years. She knows Serenity
better than you do.
“Do as she says and let Serenity come back to simmer down. Let her confide in her sister and Jasmine. I believe
everyone will advise her to make up with you, not break up. Right, Jasmine?”
Jasmine answered in her mind, ‘I won’t advise Seren. I’ll support any decision she makes!
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm‘This is Seren’s life. Even if I’m her best friend, I can’t make the call for her. She’ll
decide for herself after she calms down.‘
“I know I shouldn’t do this, but I can’t bring myself to let Seren leave. Yes, I haven’t known her for that long, but I’m
her husband. I’m the person she shares a bed with. I know her temperament very well.
“I dare say, as soon as I let her go, she’ll leave me. She’ll pack her bags and leave Wiltspoon quietly to hide
somewhere I don’t know. Her sister and all her friends will help her.”
Josh paused before responding, “Zachary, I think you need to calm down as well. Don’t keep thinking that Serenity
will leave you. You need to figure out what you need to do to ease her anger and trust you again.”
Zachary said irritably, “I can’t calm down. I don’t know what I’m supposed to do to soothe her. It’s like she gets
angrier no matter what I do. I had to knock her
unconscious in order to get her to stay.”
Josh wanted to swear at his best friend.
Zachary’s stupidity when it came to handling an emotional crisis was really challenging Josh’s perception of him.
