Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 36

Zachary refused to be associated with Hank, not only because Zachary found the likes of Hank type to be a pain in the neck, but also for Hank‘s attitude toward Liberty.

Sonny was thirsty, and the milk bottle containing water was right in front of Hank on the coffee table. Instead of grabbing the milk bottle, Hank had to call Liberty all the way there to feed their son water.

Today was only their first encounter . Yet, Zachary was able to pick up on Hank‘s contempt and lack of respect for his wife. Hank believed Liberty had it easy being a stay –at–home mom.

Due to his upbringing, Zachary did not take too kindly to men who disrespected their wives.

Although he and Serenity got married on the day they met without any feelings involved, Zachary gave Serenity the respect she deserved.

Serenity smiled. “I see. That‘s all right.”

“Kevin‘s very articulate. Hank won‘t feel left out with Kevin around.”

Looks may be deceiving when it came to Kevin, who ranked third among Zachary‘s age group. A wolf in sheep‘s clothing, Kevin could strike up a conversation

with anyone while scheming against them amid talk. “You can be my kitchen assistant.”

Zachary was without a word. He came into the kitchen to help out anyway.

Both sides of the family were pleased to see the young couple busy in the kitchen.

Liberty thought Zachary was sweet toward Serenity.

During lunch, everybody raved about Serenity‘s cooking after getting a taste of it. Perhaps they were too used to finer delicacies that their palates were more accepting of the exotic home–cooked meals.

It was an animated day for sure. The families stayed for dinner before taking off in the evening, returning peace to the humble home.

Serenity walked back into the house, hurled herself onto the sofa, and sprawled across the soft fabric. She told the man who came up from behind her. “Ow. I can barely stand up straight.”

Zachary remained quiet.
