Chapter 948
The large needle that preordained great pain danced in front of Zachary’s face.
“Come here so I can give you your injection,” Serenity ordered with a stern face.
A certain Mr. York sat up with a doleful expression. Looking at the large needle, he swallowed and asked tentatively,
“Seren, can you prepare some painkillers for after?”
“What do you think?”
Zachary did not dare speak more with his esteemed wife glaring at him. Picking up the large needle and thinking of
the pain, he felt terrified..
“Seren, it’s too early. I’ll do it a bit later, okay?”
“It’s up to you.”
Serenity sat down in the armchair and leaned back. Then she dug out her phone and sent a voice note to her sister.
“Liberty, make sure to latch the door from the inside. I’m not going back tonight.”
Hearing that, Zachary’s expression brightened.
The corners of his lips could not resist rising upwards.

managed to make Serenity stay overnight.
Out of the corner of her eye, she caught Zachary’s cheerful expression. She looked around and finally picked up a
pillow to throw at him, scolding him, “Zachary, just you try starving yourself again in the future! Do you think I’ll
care?
“I won’t care! I won’t care a single bit! I’ll rejoice in your excruciating pain and it’ll be great! You’re in your thirties
and still don’t know how to take care of yourself. What is a mouth for? It’s for eating!”
Even when she was at her angriest and saddest, she would never skip a meal.
Zachary caught the pillow she threw. “Seren, I’ll pay attention in the future. I won’t make you worry again.”
“Who’s worried?! I’m not worried at all! You think you’re all that?!”
“Alright, alright. I think I’m all that. I’ll get them to give me all of this so I can think I’m all that.”
Serenity was speechless.
“Seren.”
Zachary got up and walked to his wife’s side. He then forcibly squeezed into the armchair with her and Serenity
even shoved him twice in anger, but did not manage to push him away. He firmly occupied most of the armchair.
It was such a tight squeeze she wanted to get up and walk away, but he put his arms around her waist, and with a
show of strength, she stumbled and fell into his lap. He hugged her closely, rested his chin on her shoulder, and said
softly, “Seren, please forgive me?
“The days I couldn’t come looking for you were too hard for me. I was like a zombie.”
Even if he could find out about her movements at any moment, he still missed her like crazy.
“I won’t lie to you again in the future. If I do, I’ll take whatever you throw at me.”
Serenity tried to pry his hands away but after failing to do so, pinched the back of his hand with force a few times.
Her expression was stiff as she said, “I never said you
couldn’t come to look for me.”
“Nana didn’t let me.”
Zachary added pitifully, “I got drunk one night, and do you know how Nana woke me up?”
“She poured a bucket of cold water over your head.”
“Nana got someone to move a deck chair next to the swimming pool and laid the drunk me on the chair. Then,
when I accidentally rolled over, I fell into the pool. I really was shocked awake within seconds- also from how cold it
was.”
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmSerenity was struck speechless.
Only Nana could do such a thing.
“After I sobered up, Nana didn’t let me go and look for you and said to let you calm down. Only God knew how hard
it was for me to go days without seeing you,
sol
could only throw myself into my work. Only when I was busy would I not miss you… I really wasn’t trying to make
you pity me.
“I made you lose trust in me and I really regret that. I just want to use actual deeds to help you regain trust in me
again. I absolutely won’t even think of trying to deceive you again.
“Seren, I’ve thought it through. You can do whatever you want to do and I’ll support you no matter what. If you
can’t fit into my circle, you don’t have to force yourself. I’ll
accommodate you instead. It’s much easier than you accommodating me.
“I think living our own lives simply is pretty good.”
Serenity turned to look at him.
Their gazes met.
In the next moment, Serenity grabbed Zachary’s face and viciously bit him on the lip, proceeding to bite him on
each cheek too.
