“It has nothing to do with Zachary. I cut myself by accident.”
Acting like everything was okay, Serenity said to Elisa, “Elisa, the thing about me and Zachary…”
“I don’t blame you, Seren. You don’t have to explain or apologize to me. It’s not like we just met. I’m
only furious that Zachary lied to both of us. He made a monkey out of us cousins.”
Moments ago, Jasmine had told Elisa the whole story about Serenity finding out Zachary’s identity.
Elisa’s heart went out to her cousin who was fooled the whole time.
“Seren, I gave up on Zachary a long time ago. I got over Zachary the moment I found out he was
married. I feel more at peace after I backed off and stopped thinking about him for a while. Don’t let me
come in the way of your decision. Lying aside, he’s someone you can spend the rest of your life with.
“Of course, since he played you like a fiddle, I hope you take your time in forgiving him. At least, make
him suffer for a bit.”
Now that Elisa thought about it, she was the older cousin–in–law to Zachary now. Elisa could straighten
Zachary out for her cousin.
“That’s what I think, but I won’t interfere with what you think or how you want to deal with the matter.”
Elisa picked her injured finger up for a careful inspection. “The bleeding doesn’t seem to stop. Let’s get
you to the hospital. You’re looking a little pale too.
“I’ll drive you to the hospital.”
Serenity refused even though her finger was hurting like hell.
The scissor really drilled deep into her finger. It was a good thing her finger was still intact.
“I’m your cousin, older at that too. You have to listen to me.”
Not taking no for an answer, Elisa dragged Serenity out.
Jasmine was on Elisa’s side, convincing Serenity to clean and redress her injury at the hospital.
Serenity gave in to her best friends‘ persuasion and let Elisa drive her to the hospital.
Meanwhile, Zachary was headed for his office after picking up what was left of his dignity and leaving
the bookshop.
Josh was surprised by Zachary’s return. Ditching the work at hand, Josh rushed to Zachary’s office.
“What brings you back? Didn’t you say you won’t be at the office for a while? Look at your scary face.
Don’t tell me you had another argument with your wife.”
Josh poured Zachary a glass of water. “Have a drink. Calm yourself down.”
Zachary helped himself to the drink and downed the water before slamming the glass on the table. He
remained without a word.
“Say something. Tell me if you’re facing another issue. I told you time and again–you need to do
something about that temper of yours.”
“Elisa is back from her travels.”
Josh unconcernedly replied, “So she’s back. Are you scared she’s going to do something to your wife
when she finds out? I trust you are capable of protecting your woman.”
Zachary answered, “It’d be easier to handle if she does anything to hurt Serenity, but she didn’t. Elisa
was furious and criticized me for lying to Serenity. She accused me of making a monkey out of her and
Serenity. Things were starting to get slightly better between me and Serenity, but Elisa blew it by
turning up and now we’re back to square one.
“Serenity even tried to kick me out! I told her off in the heat of the moment… I ran away before I lost my
temper and did something to hurt her.”
Josh stared blankly at him.
Hot and bothered, Zachary added, “It’s so hard to appease women! I let her go home with her sister
when she wanted to stay with her family. She wanted to cool off, but my presence wasn’t a bother to
her. Why did she ask me to leave then? I just wanted to see her. That’s all.”
“What did you say to her?”
“I asked if she cared more about Elisa because she’d rather have Elisa around instead of me. She
always does that to me. She chooses others over me while I always put her first. I guess I can’t even
compare to Sonny. Well, Sonny is her nephew, so I can’t take it to heart, but I can’t believe Elisa is
more important than me.”
Now that Josh got to the bottom of things, he composedly uttered, “You’re jealous of
Elisa. It did not sit well with Serenity that Elisa gave you a piece of her mind, so she asked you to
leave. Yet, you got riled up. Zachary, I don’t know how to make this clearer to you.”
