Zachary made an unexpected appearance at Serenity’s shop in the afternoon.
Serenity and Jasmine were ready to dig into their takeout after finishing the task at hand when Zachary arrived at the shop. He went directly into the shop.
Surprised, Serenity stared blankly as Zachary approached her.
Zachary made a beeline to Serenity and lowered his gaze to her face. “Did you forget who I am?”
Snapping out of the shock, Serenity replied with a smile, “I didn’t expect to see you here. What brings you here? Have you eaten? I can order you takeout if you’re hungry.”
Jasmine said hello to Zachary before picking up her food and hiding behind a huge shelf to eat. She left the space to the couple.
“I had lunch. Why did you wait until now to have yours?”
Zachary raised his hand to look at the time. It was almost one o’clock. Furrowing his brows, he told Serenity off, “Take your meals on time. Your body won’t be the same once you develop indigestion.”
He had an eleven o’clock lunch appointment with a client at a hotel today. Zachary enjoyed a good meal before dropping by at Serenity’s shop.
Had he known that Serenity delayed her lunchtime, Zachary would have called her along to his lunch appointment.
Huh?
No way!
Zachary attended the lunch as the CEO. Bringing her along would expose his cover.
Although startled by his own sudden thought, Zachary did not show it on his face. He said faintly, “Have your lunch in the car. I’m taking you somewhere.”
“Where to? Is it urgent?”
Without offering an explanation, Zachary turned on his heel and left.
After a quick contemplation, Serenity grabbed her takeout and informed Jasmine before chasing after Zachary.
Once in the car, she asked, “Where on earth are we going? Must we do it now?”
