Chapter 654
Communication was key.
“Sure.”
Zachary’s hanging mind was at ease.
“You’re sick. Don’t take your drinks cold, and get a doctor’s appointment after work. Why don’t you go now instead?
Don’t drag on. Do you have a fever?”
Zachary lifted his arm to feel his head. It was burning. No wonder he felt light–headed.
Nevertheless, he did not tell Serenity the truth. “I don’t have a temperature. Don’t worry. I’m feeling fine. I’ll get
some medicine from the pharmacy later. How are you at your aunt’s place?
“Are your uncle and cousins good to you?”

Serenity had a keen observation.
“My uncle and cousins are nice. I don’t need to say much about Elisa. We hit it off fine. Zachary, blood relation is an
amazing thing. Elisa and I have never met before. We didn’t even know we were cousins, but we got on well from
the get–go.”
Zachary grinned. “Send my regards to your aunt since I can’t visit her yet. I have time during the New Year’s
holidays. I’ll go with you to visit your aunt then.”
He intended to come clean to Serenity about his identity before visiting the Stones.
Zachary would accept it wholeheartedly no matter the response Serenity would have.
As his nana put it, he deserved it.
“My aunt understands. She said that the party tomorrow is to introduce me and my sister to everyone. Zachary, it’d
be great if you were here too. I don’t really like this sort of thing. I feel better when you’re with
1. me.
“You give me a lot of assurance. You’ll always find a way to help me out of any trouble. You’re a superman to me,
Zachary.”
Zachary chuckled. “I’m just lucky to be able to help you. Let me know if you ever come across a problem
you can’t solve.
“Don’t feel too worried about the party. Your aunt has standing in Wiltspoon. Now that she has finally found you, she
wants to take you under her wing and introduce you to everybody at the party.
“Everyone will be nice to you out of respect for your aunt. Don’t feel burdened.”
“I want you by my side…”
That was why she put it out there.

Apart from an apology, Zachary had no idea what else he could say.
“But I feel assured with Elisa and Jasmine there. At least there’d be people I know at the party.
“Zachary, you don’t look too good. You better go to the hospital. I’ll let you off now, I’ll video call when I get the
time tonight. If you look worse than you already are, you must send me your address so I can drag

you to the doctor’s!”
Serenity believed Zachary was the kind to hold up even when he was sick.
Many believed taking medication could ward off sickness whereas some would not even take it and would hang on.
However, that would only make the illness worse.
Serenity might sound stern, but Zachary took it as her concern and care for him.
Although feeling light–headed, Zachary felt his illness washing away through his beloved Serenity’s concern for him.
He replied with a smile, “I don’t have time tonight. You’re busy tomorrow too. I’ll have a video chat with you in two
days. If I don’t get better in the next two days, then you’re welcome to drag me to the hospital.”
