Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 5386

Manny murmured a few instructions to the butler, and the latter excused himself.

He then gave Laurence a call.

Once the call connected, Manny said, “Laurence, the two Mrs. Johnsons are guests at the Longbottoms’. If you wish to take them home, you should show up. If not, I can’t guarantee they will remain unharmed.”

No doubt Jane and Lilian were held hostage.

Manny ended the call before Laurence had a chance to say anything.

Jane and Lilian exchanged looks.

With her eyes, Jane asked Lilian whether they should fight their way out of there or stay.

Lilian was into the idea of staying.

“Mr. Longbottom, what’s the meaning of this?”

Jane looked enraged.

“Are you holding us hostage?”

Tony chuckled. “Let’s not use such a crude term. We are extending our utmost hospitality to you. You are our guests of honor.”

Lilian said, “Since we are the honored guests, why haven’t we been offered a meal? We’ve had nothing but light snacks while shopping.”

“At this hour? You expect a meal?” Tony blurted.

“Of course. We’re starving, so we want to eat. As the hosts, it’ll be rude if you don’t join your guests to eat. You need to sit with us at the dinner table.”
