Chapter 906
The scowl on Zachary’s face could not be any more grimacing.
Nevertheless, he did not have the nerve to go ahead to face another beating from Nana’s cane. Taking his nana’s cynical remark to heart, Zachary callously retorted, ” Nana, I never said Serenity’s not the only girl out there for me.”
There was no way he would say such a thing.
Serenity was the only one for him. He did not want anyone but Serenity.
“So you never said that?”
Stumped, Zachary took a moment before uttering, “I might have said it in my dreams. How did you know, Nana?”
Was it possible that it did not happen in dreamland?
He had a huge fight with Serenity and said the unthinkable in a fit of rage. The rage somehow inflamed something else in him too….
“Nana, I–I had a lot to drink. What did I do to Serenity while intoxicated?”
If he was drunk to use force on Serenity….
Jesus!
Zachary had to stop his thoughts from spiraling there.
Alcohol could really mess things up!
He was wasted.
Grandma May put down her cane and said, “How am I supposed to know what you did to Serenity? You were rambling on after downing a few bottles of liquor. I thought you could use some help to sober up. How do you feel? Is your mind clear now?”
Zachary fell silent before saying, “I’m sober.”
Grandma May’s method of sobering him up could end up fatal if his waking came too late. He would have to wait to reconcile with Serenity in Heaven then.
“Can your problems be solved by drowning your sorrows?”
Zachary shook his head. “At least I can forget my troubles for a moment.”
