However, being busy for a period of time in exchange for peace of mind for the rest of her life was worth it.
“It’s been hard on you, Seren.”
Zachary kissed her forehead, distressed at how much she was going through because of him.
“I asked for it. If I learn well, it’ll serve me for the rest of my life.”
Serenity yawned again.
She got up early in the morning, so she was sleepy now.
“You have to go back to the office in the afternoon too. Your time is much more valuable than ours.”
He lost more by sacrificing half his day for her sister’s sake.
How would he be willing to make such a sacrifice if he did not love her deeply?
Serenity looked at Zachary and reached out to touch his handsome face. Her eyes were filled with emotion. “Babe, how did I manage to marry you? Don’t worry, since you’ve entrusted me with your life, I’ll never let you down. I’ll treat you well for the rest of your life.
“My sister is always nagging me to treat you better. It’s as if she’s afraid that I’ll abuse you. Sometimes, even I feel jealous. It’s like my sister treats you better than me.”
Zachary held her hand touching his face and said seriously, “My dash cam recorded everything you said. If you go back on your word and treat me badly in the future, I’ll take the recording and tattle to Liberty about you not keeping your word.”
Serenity was speechless.
If Zachary went to her sister to tell on her, her sister would definitely discipline her.
She quickly assured him, “I won’t let you down. Zachary, you won’t snitch on me, right?”
“I don’t like to snitch, but if I suffer a grievance, I need someone to do me justice. I think Liberty can fulfill that role.”
Serenity was speechless.
‘Zachary, so these are your true colors!’
She could not imagine the scene of Zachary and her having a little spat, then Zachary going to Liberty to cry about it.
