Serenity did not know that Zachary was having lunch at Grace’s Diner with his friends, Serenity, Jasmine, and Shawn chatted while they ate and spent quite some time there.
Shawn received a call and had to excuse himself by leaving early, so Serenity said, “Jas and I are done eating.
l’ll get the bill soon.
Shawn, you can go ahead and deal with whatever you need to.
Jas and I will go to the cafe next door.” Serenity fell in love with Beans and Cream’s tranquility the last time sheaccompanied Jasmine on a blind date there.
This street was busy, so surrounding businesses were booming.
The owner of the case was willing to spend money on sound insulation, so when customers walked into the case, the noise outsidewould be filtered out.
Shawn thought that his cousin drove, so she could take Serenity home later.
He said, “Jas, Serenity, I’ll get going then.” “Go ahead! Drive carefully on the road,” Jasmine urged her cousin.
“Jas, please send Serenity home later.” Serenity had a car, but she seldom used it because gas was getting more expensive.
A full tank would cost her hundreds of dollars.
Serenity would not use the car unless necessary.
Managing a home required careful planning.
Although Zachary gave her a considerable sum for household expenses, Serenity could not squander it.
Jasmine said with a smile, “Yeah, I’ll send Serenity home even if you don’t remind me.
Hurry up and go do your work.
It’s so sad that you can’t have a peaceful meal on a weekend.”
It was not easy to be the successor of a big company.
Shawn was a little reluctant, but he still had to take his leave.
After Serenity settled the bill, she walked out of the restaurant linking arms with Jasmine.
They walked to the nearby cafe, Beans and Cream.
