Chapter 607
“Zachary, maybe Serenity didn’t tell you because she didn’t want you to worry?”
Duncan felt that he made a mistake and quickly offered an explanation.
However, Zachary hung up the phone.
Duncan said to himself, “Damn it. What am I supposed to do if the couple gets
into a quarrel because of this?”
Once Zachary cared about a person, he would want the other party to put him
first. In simpler terms, he was overbearing.
His domineering nature would sometimes let people feel like he cared about
them, but other times, it made people feel suffocated as if they could not
breathe.
What was worse was that Zachary would feel like he was in the wrong. For
example, he felt like he fell in love with Serenity, so he was willing to do
everything for her. However, Serenity was independent and would not tell him
everything for him to help her with. Thus, Zachary would feel that Serenity did
not trust him and did not treat him as family.
Duncan called Zachary again, but it went to the mailbox because the number he
dialed was on hold.
“Did he call Serenity in the middle of the night to question her?”
Duncan felt at a loss.
He merely said a few words. How did it cause so much trouble?
Josh was usually the one having such a loose mouth, but he never saw Josh
get into trouble.
Zachary actually called Serenity.
The couple had just ended the call not long ago, so he dared to bet that
Serenity was not yet asleep. Thus, he could not resist calling her.
Serenity was still awake. When she heard the phone ring, she reached out of
the covers for the phone and quickly retrieved her hand back in.
It was cold.
After turning on the heating for a while, she did not like how dry it was, so she
turned it off again. There was no hot water bottle in Zachary’s room, and the
natural hot water bottle that was Zachary himself was on a business trip, so she
had to bundle herself up to stay warm.
She saw that it was Zachary calling again.
She answered the call. “What’s up? I’m going to sleep.”
“What happened today?”
