Chapter 57 “Serenity, we have an agreement. We‘ll divorce after six months, so can‘t you wait until then before moving on to the next guy? I don‘t know why you‘re on the prowl when we‘re still legally married. You‘re basically cheating on me right now.
“I might not have any feelings for you, nor will I ever, but no man will stand by being cheated on.”
He was only acting weird because he was angry. Zachary was furious that Serenity was so quick to have an affair.
Shawn had a crush on Serenity.
That was Zachary‘s love rival!
This was not a matter of love but a man‘s pride and dignity.
Serenity looked around as if searching for something. Unable to find anything handy, she grabbed her purse, filled with her phone and keys, and hurled it at Zachary. Since Serenity had learned self–defense, she got a pretty aim.
Caught off guard by the attack, Zachary was smacked right in the face.
The keys and phone in her purse turned into weapons and did a painful number on his lips.
He shot an angry look at Serenity.
No one had ever disrespected him like this!
Serenity walked over and bent to pick up her purse. Her tone matched his. “You asked for it.
“You convicted me of some mumbo jumbo you conjured in your head without so much as seeking clarification. Have you always been this bossy and self–righteous?” Zachary felt his aching lips while glaring at her. “What are you looking at? Is this a stare–down? As if I‘d lose to you.”
Serenity raised her purse peevishly.
Zachary thought to himself, ‘... Not again!‘
