First Sight Novel Serenity And Zachary
Married at First Sight Gu Lingfei Chapter 706 – Clive relayed the whole phone conversation he had with Zachary to his wife,
clearing any doubts that he swung both ways. Zachary did not tell Serenity about the call from Clive to meet up.
He went back into the house and joined his wife on the sofa to watch TV.
They enjoyed the TV program until Serenity started to yawn. Zachary eagerly turned off the TV and carried her upstairs.
Back in the bedroom, Zachary lay in bed with Serenity to chat for a while.
The conversation ended when the person next to him stopped speaking. Tilting his head, Zachary realized Serenity had drifted into slumber and.
Zachary heaved himself up and drew close to her before murmuring, “Seren. Seren.”
Serenity was asleep to realize what was going on around her. With his mind at ease, Zachary kissed her cheeks and tenderly uttered,
“Goodnight, Siren.” He then lifted the covers and tiptoed out of bed. Zachary tucked Serenity in, grabbed his coat, and snuck out of the bedroom.
Out of the villa, Zachary called his chauffeur and security detail to meet him at the Grand Hotel. He got to make a grand entrance to see Clive.
Clive told Zachary to meet him at the Grand Hotel at midnight, and Zachary arrived at midnight sharp. Not a minute too soon.
“Sir.” The team of bodyguards went up to Zachary, Zachary got down from the car and went straight inside. While walking, he
said, ” Keep up.” His security detail followed Zachary into the Grand Hotel. As it was midnight, the hotel was rather quiet.
Clive must have informed the receptionists in advance as the hotel staff did not seem surprised about Zachary’s arrival.
Zachary took the green channel all the way to the top floor of the hotel.
Like Wilt spoon Hotel, the Grand Hotel had a presidential suite on the top floor catered exclusively to Clive.
Once on the top floor, Zachary, escorted by his security detail, came to the entrance of the presidential suite.
There were two men in black standing at the door. They were the Stones‘ bodyguards. Clive did not show off like Zachary. He would bring along two bodyguards to social events, but most of the time, he was without any security detail.
Zachary would argue that his security detail was to protect his chastity and not for ostentation.
The two bodyguards put their hands out and stopped Zachary.
Pulling a long face, Zachary shot a piercing glare at the bodyguards and remarked callously, “Mr. Stone invited me over.”
One of the bodyguards courteously uttered, “Mr. Stone is waiting for you inside, Mr. York, but you came empty–handed.”
Zachary scowled. “What do you mean?” The bodyguard explained patiently, “Mr. York, Mr. Stone said that he’s your
wife’s cousin, so that makes him your relative. Since this is the first meeting,
he won’t see you if all etiquette rules are not observed. You can go back, and he’ll meet with your wife tomorrow instead.”
Zachary grimaced. “How is it our first–time meeting? I’ve known Mr. Stone for many years. Don’t you know?”
“Mr. Stone mentioned that it’s your first encounter since becoming family.” Zachary was rendered speechless. Clive was Serenity’s family.
It was impolite to show up empty–handed when seeing the wife’s family for the first time.
Zachary fell silent for a moment before conceding. Turning around, he instructed Sam. “Sam, can you check whether there’s any shop open at this
hour? Just buy anything you can find.” So long as he got something to offer Clive.
