Chapter 1042
“When did I say I was going back to the manor tomorrow for a barbeque?” Zachary asked.
If Duncan wanted to have some barbeque, could he not eat somewhere else? Why did it have to be at the manor?
“And squid, lamb, and big prawns. Anyway, I like eating whatever you roast.”
Duncan continued talking to himself about the food as if he did not hear what Zachary said.
Zachary proceeded to hang up immediately after that.
Though, Duncan’s words did make him think about the idea. Tomorrow was Sunday and they did not need to go to work. Plus, he had never brought Serenity to the manor before. He would do as Duncan said and invite a few friends to the manor for a barbecue. There was indeed a barbecue area back at the manor.
He could even bring Serenity back to stay for a few days and let her familiarize herself with the surroundings. The beautiful landscape there might cheer her up too.
While the plan brewed in his head, Zachary texted Duncan: [Got it. Call Josh too, and tell him to bring Julian along if he’s free.]
When Duncan received his buddy’s reply, he breathed a sigh of relief.
His cover was nearly blown.
Anyway, even if Zachary had not taken the hint, he would have gone to look for Zachary the next day and clung to his side for the whole day.
Duncan readily agreed.
After Zachary finished texting Duncan, he walked out of the kitchen and to the balcony. Serenity looked at him and asked, “Is dinner ready?”
“Almost. Are you hungry? The soup’s ready. Why don’t you have some soup first?”
