Chapter 777
While Josh’s proposal had failed, elsewhere, Zachary and his wife were happily enjoying theirhoneymoon phase.
After dinner, Serenity sat on the sofa watching television as Zachary washed the dishes in the kitchen.
A life like this made Serenity feel very fulfilled and also blissful.
After sitting for a moment, she got up and walked to the kitchen. Leaning on the doorway, she watchedZachary wash the dishes.
“Don’t you want to watch TV anymore?”
Her stare was quickly noticed by Zachary. He turned his head to glance at her before he resumedwashing the dishes.
“I don’t follow any dramas, and I don’t know which ones are good. I didn’t find any that I wanted towatch after flipping through the channels either. I feel like TV dramas aren’t as good as they used to be.The special effects are over the top. Maybe I’m just old, but anyway, I can’t bring myself to watchanything.”
Zachary laughed and said, “You’re so young, but you’re calling yourself old already. You normally comeback late at night too, so where would you have found the time to follow any dramas?”
After a pause, he continued, “I don’t have time to watch TV and I don’t follow dramas either, but I trustyour evaluation.”
“We have a film and television company under our group too. I wonder if you’d enjoy watching dramasfrom productions.”
“Forget it. I’m not interested. What if I get addicted to it and just start binging on dramas all day, everyday, and give up on doing anything? I still have a lot of stock I haven’t used. I’m better off utilizing mytime to make handicrafts and earn money than to watch dramas.”
Speaking of work, Serenity suddenly asked Zachary, “Zachary, your mother recommended that I takesome etiquette classes before this. Should I? Does your mom think my conduct and manners aren’tgood enough so that’s why she suggested that I learn some etiquette?”
Zachary arranged the washed dishes neatly and replied, “There’s no such thing. My mother is verysatisfied with you. That day, she even wanted me to help out in the kitchen. She’s biased toward you. Ifshe didn’t like you, she wouldn’t help you out like that.”
Even if his mother had a bit of dislike for Serenity, it would not affect him whatsoever.He was not amommy’s boy.
“My mother felt that you had a pretty good disposition. If you took some etiquette lessons, it would onlyimprove. There’s no other meaning to it. Of course, you should go only if you want to. Otherwise, noone would force you to. I think you’re pretty good as you are right now. I like you just the way you are.”
He had tried to change her, but that ended in a cold war between husband and wife.novelbin
Mrs. Lane had advised him not to try and change Serenity.
The reason being, the Serenity he liked was exactly the way she was right now. If he really managed tochange Serenity into someone who only revolved around him, put him on a pedestal, and no longerhad any opinions of her own, he would not like Serenity anymore.
Therefore, he gave up on trying to change her and wanted to keep her as she was.
Instead, in order to live a normal life as husband and wife with her, he kept doing things he had neverdone before and continuously grew out of his shortcomings.
“I don’t mind taking some lessons, but it’s very hard for me to find the time to do it.”
After having been dragged to upper–class gatherings by Jasmine previously, Serenity knew that herconduct and manners could not even be compared to those rich young ladies.
In the past, she had not cared, since she would never be part of the upper class in this lifetime. Whatwas the point in mimicking the behaviors of those rich young ladies then?
After hearing her mother–in–law’s suggestion and seeing that her in–laws were all incredibly well–mannered, Serenity began to view the issue of etiquette seriously.
“You could take fewer online orders. You’d be able to make the time for etiquette lessons then.”
“So you do want me to take those classes, don’t you?”
