Cupid's Arrow hit me hard! novel Chapter 991

Chapter 991

Going down to the first floor, Serenity walked extra carefully because she was worried the floor was slippery.

Clive and Alice just came in from the outside. Alice was pregnant, so she went back to her maiden home for dinner, and Clive went to pick her up after work.

The couple was stunned when they saw Serenity’s cautious look.

“What’s wrong, Seren? Are your legs uncomfortable?” Alice asked with concern as she approached.

Elisa laughed. “Look at her shoes, Alice. She’s not used to wearing high heels, so Mom told her to walk outside in these shoes for a while so she can walk more naturally before we go.”

Alice looked at the pair of stilettos on Serenity’s feet, then at her face. She patted Serenity’s shoulder with a smile and said, “It’s tough, but if you think of Mr. York, you can overcome everything.”

Serenity had a long way to go. If she wanted to join Zachary’s social circle, she had to work hard for it.

Clive also walked over and glanced at his cousin’s legs but said nothing.

“I’ll go outside to practice walking.”

“Go ahead but stay safe. You’re still wearing your gown. Be careful not to stain it.” Alice reminded her with a smile. She was worried that Serenity would slip and fall.

Serenity walked even more carefully.

Elisa accompanied her out of the house.

As Serenity slowly adapted to the high heels, Elisa took a video and sent it to Zachary.

Zachary silently removed Elisa from his blacklist after learning that Serenity was Audrey’s niece. He also took the chance when Serenity was sleeping to open up social media and stopped hiding her posts from Elisa.

Now, Zachary could receive the video sent to him by Elisa.

Elisa added a message along with the video: [Zachary, Seren is working really hard for you. I hope you’ll never let her down or lie to her for the rest of your lives.]

Zachary replied: [All the love in my life belongs to Serenity alone.]

Elisa remarked with a smile, “No one is asking you to run in those heels.”

Serenity stole a glance at her aunt’s face before putting on the stilettos. Grabbing Elisa’s hand, she stood up and took a few steps. She was tempted to kick the stilettos off her feet.

Oh, how she longed for her house loafers.

“Wear these heels down the stairs and walk a few rounds on the front lawn. We can

leave when you feel comfortable in them.”

Audrey was so focused on picking outfits and shoes for Serenity the other day that she forgot to let Serenity practice wearing the heels.

Serenity quietly stuck her tongue out. Without defying Aunt Audrey’s orders, she cautiously strutted out of the room.

“I’ll go with Seren, Mom.”

Taking pity on Serenity, Elisa merrily went with her cousin.

Once out of the room, Elisa gave Serenity a sympathetic look as the latter clung to the barrister and walked. Elisa commented, “You asked for it. You could’ve asked anyone for help, but you sought guidance from my mother. My mom is all about etiquette. She could probably work for the Queen. She probably will tell you to start over if you don’t do a good job.”

Serenity was lost for words.

Who else could she look for, if not Aunt Audrey?

If she were to go with Zachary, Zachary would dote on her so much and be cool with her leaving home in her loafers.
