NovelEnglishPerhaps it would not be long before Serenity and Zachary turn into areal couple and live happily ever after.
Snapping out of her thoughts, Serenity thanked the hotel manager and saw him off at the door. She watched as the manager got into the car and drove away before heading into the shop.
As there were two lunch sets, the other share was without a doubt for Jasmine.

With her best friend appr aching, she said with a smile, “Come on and eat. The Wiltspoon Hotel is a seven— star hotel. We tried their food at the dinner party the last time. | co uldn't stop thinking about the delicious food after | got home.
“Thanks to you, | finally get to relive the taste.” Jasmine shoved the cutlery into Serenity’s hands while complimen ting Zachary with glee, “I can't believe Mr. York can be so thoughtf ul. He bought you lunch and had it delivered to you. He must feel
bad that you've been having takeout for lunch.
“Serenity, Mr. York has a lot of redeeming qualities. Although he ha s his guard up and signed a six-month contract with you, he might trash the agreement and become lifelo ng partners with you once you two spend some time together. Thin k about it.” Serenity burst out laughing . “You've already taken his side after h bought you lunch. | get along with him, but it doesn't look like ou r relationship is going to advance from here.” “I'm not someone who can be bought with a single meal. Besides, you're my best friend. No matter what happens or the circumstanc es, | will always be on your side. Compared to your brother—in— law, would you dare say that Mr. York is not one of the good guys? The pair dug in and discussed the quality of men.
“My brother—in— law used to be so good to my sister. His attitude changed for the w orst ever since Sonny was born.” Human beings were fickle-minded.
Serenity and Zachary had only been married for a month, so they were not very familiar with each other yet. She still had a lot to lear n about Zachary. They had not reached the stage to put themselve s out there, showing their flaws and strengths to one another.

Nevertheless, Serenity was happy that Zachary delivered her a bo untiful and delicious lunch. Before digging in, she snapped a photo and posted it on Facebook with the caption: (Special delivery fro m the husband.) Considering that she and Zachary kept their marriage under wraps , Serenity did not make the post visible to friends who were in the dark about her marriage.

Zachary happened to be at the Wiltspoon Hotel for a luncheon wit h a few clients, where he could discuss business over lunch.
With an incoming call from Serenity, Zachary excused himself apol ogetically to the few CEOs, “I need to take a call.” “Be my guest, Mr. York.” The CEOs gladly gestured for Zachary to go ahead.
Having closed a deal with York Corporation, the CEOs were in the best of moods. They enjoyed a few bites and chatted while Zachar y got up to take the call elsewhere. One of the CEOs asked Josh, who was also there, “Mr. York's outfit today doesn’t seem to be his usual attire.” Those with keen eyes picked up on Zachary's change in his clothi ng label Josh replied with a smile, “Good catch, Mr. Williams.
