damaging my expensive car. The repair costs will be overwhelming.” This had occurred twice now; the first time was relatively minor since it was just a scratch, and the repairs were not too costly. However, this incident was much worse. Who knows how much greater the damage could be next time? Zachary was left speechless and at a loss for words. It was quite a coincidence that his sister-in-law seemed to be involved each time. If Liberty weren’t already married, Zachary might have joked that fate was bringing Duncan and her together. “I didn’t let her pay for the damages, just for you.” “How much will the repairs cost? I’ll cover her expenses,” Zachary offered generously. “It’s fine; I’m not short on cash. I just needed to vent. Speaking of which, Zachary, it seems your sister-in-law isn’t getting along well with her husband. She bought a lot of things and called him for a ride, but he refused to pick her up.” Any ordinary man would tell his wife to call a cab if he couldn’t go to get her. Since Liberty had no income, she likely didn’t want to spend money even if her husband suggested it. Duncan thought he might be overanalyzing the situation. In a deadpan tone, Zachary replied, “If I’m not mistaken, her husband is currently at the Wiltspoon Hotel with a hot, beautiful woman.” Duncan responded, “… No wonder. So, her husband is cheating on her.” “I can’t confirm if he’s cheating, but I’ve got Josh looking into it. He’ll gather evidence of any infidelity if it’s happening. So far, I haven’t received a report from him.” The family that Serenity cared about most was her sister, and Zachary felt it was his duty as Serenity’s husband to support her.
Sister-in-law was experiencing the ultimate betrayal. He also had issues with Hank. “You seem to care about your wife’s family. When will you allow us to meet your wife?” Duncan was eager to discover what made Serenity so special that Grandma May held her in high regard. For three months, Grandma May persistently urged Zachary to marry Serenity after she saved her life, until he finally relented. Although Grandma May might not act her age and could be unreliable in small matters, her judgment was sharp; she had a keen sense of character.
