Serenity smiled and remarked, “I’m not concerned about them being difficult to get along with. I’m simply curious about what Grandma would choose for them.” She was all about gossip. Serenity had faith that her future sisters-in-law would get along well, knowing that Grandma May had good taste. If Grandma chose them, they must possess good character.

There was no need to worry, even if they didn’t get along with her. Each person had their own villa at Wildridge Manor, where they all resided. Living separately would allow for clearer communication; they could maintain a superficial relationship, even if they didn’t get along.

Zachary commented, “I have no idea what kind of people they are, but I imagine they must be attractive. After all, my cousins are the best of the best. If they were too unattractive, Grandma wouldn’t choose them. It’s been a while since Evan visited, and I’m not sure how he and his partner are doing.” He didn’t even know his brother’s partner’s last name.

Since she wasn’t his woman, why should he be overly concerned? Eventually, Evan would likely bring them home to meet their parents.

“I don’t understand what Grandma saw in me in the first place. While I’m not unattractive, I lack a strong background, and the gap between my reality and yours is significant. You are the eldest son and grandson, yet she arranged for us to be together and pressured you into this marriage. It must be difficult for you,” Serenity said.

After a moment of silence, Zachary replied, “Perhaps we owe it to that master.” Grandma May had immense trust in the master, who had told her that Zachary and Serenity were destined to be husband and wife.

lifetime. If he missed Evan in this life, he would remain a bachelor forever. Grandma May adored him the most. How could she allow him to remain single?

After secretly assessing Serenity’s character, she concluded that Serenity was a good person. Seizing an opportunity, she gradually approached Serenity, hoping to win her over as his future wife.

The only variable in her plan was that Serenity seemed eager to marry. Grandma May likely envisioned taking a year or two to win Serenity over, but she never anticipated that Serenity would become Zachary’s wife in just a few months.

“Zachary, do you regret it?” Serenity suddenly asked, lifting her head to look at him.

Zachary seriously pinched her face and replied, “I regret it so much that my intestines have turned blue.”

As soon as he finished speaking, Serenity retaliated by lightly punching him twice. “If you regret it, just get a divorce. Do you think I can’t live without you?”

Zachary couldn’t help but laugh. He grabbed her small fist and said with a smile, “I regret it. I regret not meeting you sooner and marrying you earlier. If I had married you sooner, we would have had much more time together, Seren. I truly cherish the moments we share.”

Serenity’s expression softened, and she blushed again. She scolded him playfully, leaned against his chest, and wrapped her arms tightly around his waist.

In the past, she would have been more than happy to divorce him if he claimed he didn’t love her. Now, however, her love for him made the thought of losing him painful.

He was afraid of losing her; why wasn’t she?

Zachary hugged her tightly and said earnestly, “I will never divorce you in this lifetime, and let’s avoid using the word ‘divorce.’ It’s too hurtful.”

Serenity simply hummed, “I won’t mention it.”

He had just said he regretted it, and her heart raced with anxiety.

Feeling angry, she spoke her mind.

Upon arriving at the vegetable and fruit store co-owned by Serenity and her friends, the driver halted the car.

Serenity grabbed her bag and told Zachary, “You don’t need to get out of the car. Head back to the company. Josh is on vacation, so you should keep busy.”

“I’ll go in with you,” Zachary replied as he exited the car, determined to accompany Serenity to the office.
