Chapter 906
The scowl on Zachary’s face could not be any more grimacing.
Nevertheless, he did not have the nerve to go ahead to face another beating from Nana’s cane. Taking his nana’s cynical remark to heart, Zachary callously retorted, ” Nana, I never said Serenity’s not the only girl out there for me.”
There was no way he would say such a thing.
Serenity was the only one for him.
He did not want anyone but Serenity.
“So you never said that?”
Stumped, Zachary took a moment before uttering, “I might have said it in my dreams.
How did you know, Nana?”
Was it possible that it did not happen in dreamland?
He had a huge fight with Serenity and said the unthinkable in a fit of rage. The rage somehow inflamed something else in him too….
“Nana, I–I had a lot to drink. What did I do to Serenity while intoxicated?”

“Also, change out of your wet clothes. You look like you took a bath with your clothes on.”
Turning a deaf ear, Zachary proceeded to walk out of there.
“Josh was the one who sent you home last night.”
Grandma May had to come clean before her drunken grandson went to Serenity looking like that.
By the looks of his pale face, Zachary must have done something to Serenity in his dreams. Serenity would probably be left scratching her head if her door was pounded first thing in the morning.
Stopping short, Zachary turned around and brisked his pace back to Grandma May.
“Josh drove me home? Did I do anything to Josh?”
Furious, Grandma May smacked him on the arm and chided, “God knows what you did to Josh. Josh fled right after dropping you off. He didn’t even come in for a drink.”
Zachary looked sullen.
Grandma asked him on purpose, “Zachary, what happened in your dream? Josh is your most trusted and closest friend. He dumped you here before running away. Did you mistake him for Serenity?”
“Nana!”
Zachary hissed through clenched teeth, “I don’t remember a thing!”
His memory was stuck on asking his two best friends out to Neon Nights. He needed a drink after Serenity proposed signing a new contract with him. She needed time to get used to his status as the heir of the Yorks. While she would try to adapt to his world, she would not push herself if it was not for her. If it was not meant to be, Serenity hoped Zachary would not push the agenda and let it go too.
