Brandt and the maids did not even dare to breathe.
After a long time, Zachary raised his voice and ordered Brandt, “Go and bring my phone charger for the missus.”
“Yes, sir.”
Brandt quickly went to get the charger for Serenity.
Was Zachary allowing her to charge her phone a sign that he would let her leave?
In fact, Brandt also felt that Mr. Zachary should not keep Serenity under house arrest and that he should let her leave so that they could both calm down.
However, he did not dare say such a thing.
Serenity was too important to Zachary and he was afraid she would never come back if she left.
That was why he forced her to stay with him. However, that would only aggravate the couple’s conflict.
Brandt soon returned with the charger.
He handed it to Zachary.
When Zachary passed it to Serenity, he could not help but grab her hand when she took the charger, begging, “Seren, don’t bring up divorce again, okay?”
Serenity drew her hand back and took the charger.
She turned away and plugged in her phone.
Zachary panicked when he did not get the assurance he wanted. He knew she was still thinking about leaving him.
He could not comprehend. Yes, he lied to her, but was his true identity not worthy of her? Why did she want a divorce after knowing the truth? An ordinary person would be jumping with joy if they found out their husband was a multi-billionaire.
Zachary’s lack of understanding blinded him from seeing Serenity’s anger stemming from his web of lies and his betrayal of her trust.
When faced with Serenity’s wrath, Zachary’s approach made her feel incredibly uncomfortable.
