Chapter 8

Zachary was careful to watch his weight, refusing to let himself go and become overweight.It was hard to shed the pounds.Serenity smiled.

"You're fit, Mr.York."So...I guess I'll go back to bed?"

"Sure" Zachary replied.

"Goodnight." Serenity wished him goodnight before turning on her heel to leave.

"Hang on, Se...Serenity."

Zachary called after her.

Pausing, Serenity turned her head around and asked, "Yes?"

Zachary looked at her and said, "Please don’t walk around in your pajamas next time."

She was not wearing a bra underneath her pajamas.Unfortunately, his eagle eyes picked up on that.

They were husband and wife anyway, but what if someone else caught her in her pajamas? The last thing he wanted was for other men to see his wife's body.

Red in the face, Serenity bolted back to her room and slammed the door shut.

Zachary was speechless.She was embarrassed before he could feel awkward for her.

Zachary took a moment to sit before heading to the master bedroom.

He bought the furnished house at the last minute.

It was move-in ready.

Nevertheless, his bedroom had not been sorted out due to the rush.

He was quite impressed that Serenity knew how to take a hint instead of brazenly demanding to sleep in the same room.

Thank goodness fulfillment of marital obligations was not asked of him.

The wee hours of the morning went by uneventfully for the married couple.
