Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 693

Chapter 693

After unlocking the gate, Zachary got back into the car and started the engine. He drove into the villa compound and parked on the empty driveway.

He replied without Serenity pressing for answers. “My parents and Nana prefer living in the old residence and away from the bustle. They’re used to the place because they have been there for decades. They prefer their peace away from us kids. Nana would stay with us for a few days and disappear somewhere else.”

Serenity concurred, “Yeah. Sounds like it.”

She got out of the car and strolled around the front lawn.

The landscape was great. The estate had a front lawn and backyard. There was a swimming pool, some pruned trees, and a pergola in the front. The tree near the pergola had a swing installed onto the branch. It was perfect to enjoy a good book or the view while sitting there.

The backyard was lush with scenic and fruit trees. There were homegrown Wiltspoonian trees like shoppingmode apple and mango trees.

Serenity observed the open space in the middle of the backyard, contemplating growing fruits and vegetables on the vacant lot.

She blurted out the idea she had in mind.

Zachary said with a smile, “I don’t have time to garden. You’re the lady of the house. You can grow whatever you want. I don’t have a problem with how you use the land.”

Truth be told, the gardener cleared the land to grow roses.

Since he wanted to let Serenity know about the villa, Zachary informed the butler to move everybody to the other villa during his time in the hospital while Serenity was not around. The gardener cleared the land for Serenity to have her dream garden.

The swing by the pergola was installed hastily at the last minute.

Serenity would enjoy taking in the view from the swing.

“The place is a little far from our workplaces. I’ll forget about it for now.”

Serenity believed the apartment in Brynfield was more accessible.

“You haven’t been living here for a while now. Is the kitchen usable?”

“It’s been a while, but my mom will hire a few cleaners to tidy up the place in two days and stock up the fridge, so I can come back and make my own meals.”

Serenity had no reason to suspect Zachary was lying.

The way she saw it, many mothers would fuss over their children’s daily lives.

Hank was an example. Her sister took care of basic needs after marriage while his mother would check in on Hank every now and then as if Liberty would do a bad job.

“Let’s have dinner and a stroll after that.”

Zachary remarked, “But I want to eat you up now, Seren.”

Serenity pouted. “What’s the rush? Can’t you take me around to get familiar with the place?”
