Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

Chapter 641
She also dreamed that he said a lot of things to her, but she did not hear them.
In the dream, she told him to speak louder because she could not hear him, but his mouth simply continued to open and close.
She was unable to hear a single word and had been incredibly anxious.
Mrs. Lane turned to look at Serenity, then turned back to her work.
“I sent your sister and Sonny home yesterday evening and stayed overnight at their place. I really have no clue if Mr. York came
back or not.”
Serenity smacked her own head. “Right, you didn’t come home. Ugh, my head hurts. Mrs. Lane, can you please make me a bowl
of hangover soup? No, I’m going to take a painkiller. My head is killing me.”
Serenity turned and slipped out of the kitchen.
Acting completely naturally, she wandered into the guest room and found the medicine box to grab a bottle of painkillers.
“Headache?”
Her sister’s voice resounded.
Serenity was startled that she almost dropped the bottle.
“I have a headache from not sleeping well. I’ll be fine after taking a painkiller.”
Since she was seen by Liberty, she stopped trying to take the medicine secretly.
“How many times have I told you not to drink? You’re not a good drinker and get drunk after just a few glasses, but you never
listen to what I say. Do you think you can go drinking without consequences because Zachary isn’t at home to keep an eye on
you?”
Liberty was distressed and angry. She pulled her sister’s ear and nagged, “When Zachary comes back, I’m telling him to take
you along on his business trips in the future, lest you take advantage of his absence to go drinking again.”
“Sis, his business trips are for work. What am I going to do if I follow him?

“I just had a couple of drinks. I didn’t drink that much.”
“What a load of bull. Do you think I don’t know you? You can’t drink, yet you love to drink. If there’s no one watching you, you’ll
definitely drink five, six, or even eight glasses.”
Liberty turned around and walked toward the kitchen while scolding her sister, “Ask Mrs. Lane to make you a bowl of hangover
soup to drink.”
“I know you love me the most, Liberty. You’re the best sister in the whole wide world.”
“Yeah, yeah.”
Liberty glared at Serenity.
While Serenity was eating. Liberty went to the balcony and saw there were clothes hung outside. She brought Zachary’s clothes
in while saying to her sister, “Zachary has been away for a few days, but you didn’t help him put away his clothes. Why are they
still damp?
“You have good lighting here, and the balcony is facing east. The clothes will dry easily when the sun rises, but why are they still
damp after being hung for a few days?”
It had not rained the past two days either.
Although it was cold, there were occasional sunny hours during the day.
The house Liberty rented did not have as much sunlight as Serenity’s, but the mother and son’s clothes. were able to dry after
hanging them out in the sun all day.
Serenity said instinctively, “Zachary rarely dries his clothes on the main balcony. He has a small one in hist room, so he always
dries his clothes over there.”
Liberty hung the clothes again and said, “If he doesn’t dry his clothes here, then whose clothes are these? Yours? This long pair
of trousers should be Zachary’s. It’s clear they’re men’s pants.”
Serenity was at a loss.
She carried the bowl and walked out to see.

She froze.
It really was Zachary’s pants. His shirt as well as his briefs were there too.
“That’s weird. I remember he rarely hangs his clothes outside. Besides, I helped him pack his luggage. before he went on his
business trip. I made sure he didn’t have any clothes left out in the sun.”
