Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 33

Accustomed to the convenience of five-star transportation, Zachary was exhausted from the two hour shopping as Serenity‘s personal porter despite taking self–defense classes and keeping a fitness routine.

He would rather be buried under a pile of work and meetings than go shopping with a woman. As the car came to a stop, Serenity got a call from Grandma May before she stepped out of the car.

“Are you home, Serenity? We‘re downstairs.”

Serenity replied with a smile, “We just returned from the market, Nana. Wait for us. We‘ll be right there.”

“Did you go to the market with Zack?”

That put a smile on Nana‘s face. Nana thought to herself, ‘ To think my callous and stuck–up grandson put aside his pride and go shopping with Serenity at the market.‘

Since he wanted to play the pauper, Zack might as well step into the shoes of an ordinary person.

“Yeah. We went to get groceries.”

“Zack has always been busy with work, so he‘s never been to the market. It‘s a good thing to bring him around.

Serenity, make Zack do the heavy lifting. He‘s strong. Don’t tire yourself.”

Zachary began to doubt whether Serenity was Grandma May‘s birth grandchild instead. As Serenity got down from the car, she held the phone with one hand and opened the rear door with another. Popping her head in, she grabbed a foldable wagon and gestured for Zachary to unfold it.

“Don‘t worry, Nana. I won‘t exert myself.”

Since the wagon was not big enough to carry all the groceries, Zachary was left to haul the rest. Serenity took Nana‘s advice and had it easy throughout their walk home.

“Nana, we‘re coming right now.”
