Chapter 116
Zachary hummed and said, “They wouldn‘t dare mess with you again after this ordeal.”
The Hunts would only regret it.
“Where do you usually go for lunch?” Serenity asked suddenly.
“Outside.” Zachary replied, and then asked back, “Do you want to invite me over for lunch?”
Serenity smiled and said, “I‘ll invite you over if you‘re free since you‘ve helped me so much. I‘m very grateful for your help and have nothing to give in return, so let me treat you to a meal. But don‘t choose restaurants that are too fancy. I‘m afraid I won‘t be able to afford it.”
Zachary wanted to laugh. Serenity wanted to treat him to a meal to thank him, but she was afraid that she would not be able to afford a meal at a high–end hotel. Was this sincerity genuine or what?
“I don‘t have much free time during lunch, and there are too many people in the nearby restaurant at that hour. If you really want to treat me to a meal, go home early in the evening and cook a feast for me. But don‘t overdo it since we won‘t be able to eat that much.”
Zachary would never pack food for Callum again. Why
should he pack his wife‘s cooking for Callum? So what if Callum was his cousin? If Callum wanted to eat home cooked food, he should get a wife for himself so he could eat his wife‘s home–cooked food every day.
If Callum knew what Zachary was thinking at that moment, he would say, “Zachary is indeed jealous!”
Haha, what a slap in the face! Some time ago, Zachary said that he did not know what jealousy was and would never experience it. Did he finally know what jealousy feels like?
Serenity smiled. “Alright then. I‘ll go home early tonight to buy some ingredients and cook up a feast for you!”
“Thanks for your hard work.”
Zachary did not think that it was a wife‘s duty to cook for her husband. Thus, he was grateful that Serenity was willing to cook for him.
Both of them had to go to work and had their own jobs, so no one had it easier than the other.
It would take both the husband and wife to work together to build a happy family,
