Chapter 906
The scowl on Zachary’s face could not be any more grimacing.
Nevertheless, he did not have the nerve to go ahead to face another beating from Nana’s cane. Takinghis nana’s cynical remark to heart, Zachary callously retorted, ” Nana, I never said Serenity’s not theonly girl out there for me.”
There was no way he would say such a thing.
Serenity was the only one for him. He did not want anyone but Serenity.
“So you never said that?”
Stumped, Zachary took a moment before uttering, “I might have said it in my dreams. How did youknow, Nana?”
Was it possible that it did not happen in dreamland?
He had a huge fight with Serenity and said the unthinkable in a fit of rage. The rage somehow inflamedsomething else in him too….
“Nana, I–I had a lot to drink. What did I do to Serenity while intoxicated?”
If he was drunk to use force on Serenity….
Jesus!
Zachary had to stop his thoughts from spiraling there.novelbin
Alcohol could really mess things up!
He was wasted.
Grandma May put down her cane and said, “How am I supposed to know what you did to Serenity?You were rambling on after downing a few bottles of liquor. I thought you could use some help to soberup. How do you feel? Is your mind clear now?”
Zachary fell silent before saying, “I’m sober.”
Grandma May’s method of sobering him up could end up fatal if his waking came too late. He wouldhave to wait to reconcile with Serenity in Heaven then.
“Can your problems be solved by drowning your sorrows?”
Zachary shook his head. “At least I can forget my troubles for a moment.”
“Are your troubles still here now that you’re awake? Or does it feel worse? You can say anything anddo anything when you’re drunk. You might think it’s a dream, but you could be acting it out in real life.”
Zachary turned as white as a sheet. He nervously asked, “What happened to Serenity, Nana?”
“I don’t know.”
Grandma May’s tactic of intimidation worked. However, the old lady had no clue how Serenity wasdoing because the person who drove her wasted grandson home last night was Josh and not hergranddaughter–in–law.
Zachary turned on his heel to leave.
“Come back. What time do you think it is? She’s going to give you an attitude if you wake her at thishour.”
It was five o’clock in the morning. It was not even the break of dawn.
“Also, change out of your wet clothes. You look like you took a bath with your clothes on.”
Turning a deaf ear, Zachary proceeded to walk out of there.
“Josh was the one who sent you home last night.”
Grandma May had to come clean before her drunken grandson went to Serenity looking like that.
By the looks of his pale face, Zachary must have done something to Serenity in his dreams. Serenitywould probably be left scratching her head if her door was pounded first thing in the morning.
Stopping short, Zachary turned around and brisked his pace back to Grandma May.
“Josh drove me home? Did I do anything to Josh?”
Furious, Grandma May smacked him on the arm and chided, “God knows what you did to Josh. Joshfled right after dropping you off. He didn’t even come in for a drink.”
Zachary looked sullen.
Grandma asked him on purpose, “Zachary, what happened in your dream? Josh is your most trustedand closest friend. He dumped you here before running away. Did you mistake him for Serenity?”
“Nana!”
Zachary hissed through clenched teeth, “I don’t remember a thing!”
His memory was stuck on asking his two best friends out to Neon Nights. He needed a drink afterSerenity proposed signing a new contract with him. She needed time to get used to his status as theheir of the Yorks. While she would try to adapt to his world, she would not push herself if it was not forher. If it was not meant to be, Serenity hoped Zachary would not push the agenda and let it go too.
