Chapter 910
Zachary had no idea his commitment to work had caused distress to the entire office. It was Monday after he took seven days to cool off. He invited Serenity out at the start of a new week.
The injury on Serenity’s hand healed up well after seven days of rest. At least, she could now drive.
Zachary asked to meet her at the presidential suite on the top floor of Wiltspoon Hotel.
Serenity brought Sonny along.
The little man was with her today because the facelift for Liberty’s restaurant was nearing completion. Since Liberty would be busy in the coming days, she did not have time to look after Sonny. The responsibility of caring for Sonny fell on Serenity’s shoulders.
“Mrs. York.”
Standing at the hotel entrance, Jim and his colleague watched as Serenity carried Sonny out of the car. Jim went ahead and respectfully said hello.
“Where’s your boss?”
“Mr. Zachary is waiting for you on the top floor. Please come with us.
Remaining deferential throughout, Jim and his colleague led Serenity into the hotel.

Serenity took a seat.
“I’ll pour you a drink.”
Zachary put Sonny down and poured his guests a drink. He also took out some snacks for Sonny.
He then took a seat next to Sonny.
Zachary stared at Serenity for a while before picking up the yellow envelope from the coffee table. He handed the envelope to Serenity and said, “This is for you, Seren.”
“What’s this? Divorce papers?”
Zachary responded, “Dream on.”
Pursing her lips, Serenity took the yellow envelope and replied, “I thought you came around.”
She opened the yellow envelope and pulled out the papers from inside. It did not take long for her to see what they were all about.
Zachary uttered tenderly, “I’m giving you my assets, so you don’t feel the weight of the stress. I accept your proposal to sign an agreement, but my only condition is that
