[Serenity & Zachary]
“What’s the matter, Mr. York?”
Serenity’s voice was heard from the balcony.
Chewing on the wrap, Zachary mad e his way to the balcony.” Your sister’s thing is
nothing to worry about. The car in question happens to belong to one of our important
clients. It dawned on me last night, so I gave Mr. Lewis a call. He said the repairs cost
about ten thousand dollars.”
Although she appeared rather lively dabbling the plants, Zachary could tell that she was
not at her best, likely due to a lack of sleep last night. The matter with her sister was the
cause of trouble in slumberland.
Serenity lifted her chin and observed hi m munching on the wrap. While thinking to
herself that Zachary was easy to appease in the food department, Serenity asked, “How
can y ou be sure it’s the car of your company’s client?”
Her sister was clueless about the car owner’s name. All she knew was tha t he was big,
strong, and had an intimidating scar on his face. Sonny was scared stiff of the man.
“I attended to Mr. Lewis when he came to our office yesterday morning. I noticed there
was a scratch on his car, so I asked him about it. Mr. Lewis told me t hat a woman with a
baby knocked a stroller onto his car.
“I was thinking if it could be a coincidence when you talked about it last night, so I called
Mr. Lewis. Is your sister called

Her sister could manage ten thousand bucks.
“I aske d him, and that was what he said.”
Serenity heaved a sigh of relief. “That’s great. Thank you, Mr. York.”

The sisters’ biggest worry was the cost of the damage. Now that Serenity found out that
it was only going to set them back by ten thousand dollars, th e sun over the horizon
seemed awfully bright.
At the same time, Serenity realized that they might be strangers before, but postnuptial,
Zachary had her back whenever she sought help from him. Zachary was a capable
man.
He was like a shoulder she could lean on.
“You’re welcome.”
With relief spreading across her face, it put Zachary in a good mood too.
“Ring, ring, ring…”
Serenity’s phone rang.
She picked up the call. It was from her sister.
“Liberty, I was just about to call you. I told my husband about vour incident. By a stroke
of luck, the car owner turns out to be one of Zachary’s clients. Zachary asked about the
repairs, and it should come to around ten thousand bucks. Can you afford
that?”
Serenity barely slept a wink over the matter. As the party invol ved, Liberty must have
had a rougher night.
The compensation would not have been a concern in the past when she was earning a
high wage. Nevertheless, she was now a full - time housewife without a source of
income. Her husband blamed her for getting into tro uble and sulkily announced that
Liberty was on her own. Of course, Liberty had a harder time fretting over it than
Serenity.
“I can manage if it’s around ten thousand bucks. I saved half of the allowance you gave
me without telling my husband. It should be enough to cover the repair cost.
“Oh, I actually called you to talk about this. The owner of the car sent me a text
message at two o’clock in the morning. He gave me an account number to wire nine
thousand bucks into. I saw the message when I got up. I wa nted to tell you this, so you
don’t have to worry about it.
“Now it seems Mr. Lewis is not expecting me to pay the whole thing.”

Liberty only had to foot nine thousand dollars out of a bill that could have cost over ten
thousand dollars. Mr. Lewis probably asked for less on account of her new brother - in -
law. So far,
Zachary scored a brownie point in Liberty’s books.
Since the unfortunate incident, all her husband did was call her a t r oublemaker and say
it was her problem to solve. They were already splitting the household expenses, so he
left the bill to Liberty to figure it out on her own.
