The injury on Serenity’s hand healed up well after seven days of rest. At least, she could now drive.novelbin
Zachary asked to meet her at the presidential suite on the top floor of Wiltspoon Hotel.
Serenity brought Sonny along.
The little man was with her today because the facelift for Liberty’s restaurant was nearing completion.Since Liberty would be busy in the coming days, she did not have time to look after Sonny. Theresponsibility of caring for Sonny fell on Serenity’s shoulders.
“Mrs. York.”
Standing at the hotel entrance, Jim and his colleague watched as Serenity carried Sonny out of the car.Jim went ahead and respectfully said hello.
“Where’s your boss?”
“Mr. Zachary is waiting for you on the top floor. Please come with us.
Remaining deferential throughout, Jim and his colleague led Serenity into the hotel.
A few minutes later, Serenity entered the magnificent presidential suite with Sonny in her arms.
With his back facing the door, Zachary stood by the window. The room bore a heavy stench ofcigarettes.
Zachary, who rarely ever smoked, had helped himself to multiple packs.
Serenity noticed the ashtray, filled with cigarette butts on the coffee table. There was also a thick yellowenvelope on the table, but the content was unknown.
They had not seen each other for a week.
By now, Serenity had gotten a grip on herself.
“Uncle Zack.”
Sonny was the first to break the silence.
Sonny’s voice urged Zachary to turn around. He quickly put out the cigarette in his hand.
He was aware of Serenity coming into the room.
The only reason Zachary did not turn around was that he was smoking. He did not want her to see himsmoking because she had a thing against smokers.
It never occurred to him that Serenity came along with Sonny.
Zachary did not want to expose the little guy to second–hand smoke.
Drawing near, Zachary removed the ashtray from the coffee table and put it far away. He opened thedoor, letting fresh air clear the cigarette stench.
Serenity watched as he did all that.
“I–I was bored and took a few puffs. I’ll quit smoking if you don’t like it.”
Zachary explained as he came forward to take Sonny from Serenity’s arms. Weighing
the boy in his hands, Zachary remarked, “Sonny has gotten a little heavier.
“Please sit, Seren.”
Zachary asked his wife to sit down.
Serenity took a seat.
“I’ll pour you a drink.”
Zachary put Sonny down and poured his guests a drink. He also took out some snacks for Sonny.
He then took a seat next to Sonny.
Zachary stared at Serenity for a while before picking up the yellow envelope from the coffee table. Hehanded the envelope to Serenity and said, “This is for you, Seren.”
“What’s this? Divorce papers?”
Zachary responded, “Dream on.”
Pursing her lips, Serenity took the yellow envelope and replied, “I thought you came around.”
She opened the yellow envelope and pulled out the papers from inside. It did not take long for her tosee what they were all about.
Zachary uttered tenderly, “I’m giving you my assets, so you don’t feel the weight of the stress. I acceptyour proposal to sign an agreement, but my only condition is that we don’t divorce.”
