Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

Chapter 828
Serenity was surprised to see that the person who came in was her sister. She immediately put down her plate and walked
toward Liberty.
Zachary’s knee–jerk reaction was to grab her wrist.
Serenity stared at him coldly.
“Seren...”
Zachary’s heart ached with such a glare from her. He felt like their relationship as husband and wife had returned to the way it
was on their first night. No, it was even colder than the beginning of their marriage.
He finally let go of her hand and let her walk toward her sister.
“Seren.”
Liberty jogged over.
When the two sisters were face to face, Serenity plunged into her sister’s arms and wailed her heart out.
“Seren...”
Liberty hugged her sister tightly.
“Cry if you want to. I’m here.”
“Liberty...”
The floodgates to Serenity’s suppressed emotions finally broke free when she fell into her sister’s embrace. She cried pitifully for
a long time.
Zachary stood not far away, watching his petite wife cry. His heart ached, but he could offer her comfort because he was the
cause of her tears.
Ten minutes later, the Hunt sisters were seated side by side while Zachary sat by himself opposite them.

“Zachary, I came here to bring Seren home,” Liberty spoke bluntly.
Zachary tensed his face and said in a low voice, “This is Seren’s home. We’re husband and wife. Her home is where I live.”
Liberty paraphrased, “I’m here to take Seren back to my home for a while.”
“Liberty, you and Sonny can move here instead.”

Liberty was speechless.
“What’s that supposed to mean, Zachary?”
Liberty’s expression turned cold. “Are you forbidding Seren from leaving this villa? Do you know what you’re doing? Do you think
you can keep her by doing this? You’ll only make the conflict worse.”
“Seren won’t come back if she leaves. I won’t let her out of my sight!”
Zachary was insistent.
“You-!”
Anger got to Liberty.
“Save your breath, Liberty. He’s someone who only does things he thinks are right. Everything has to go his way. He doesn’t care
what we think. He won’t even give me the simplest things like trust and respect.”
Instead of the anger and agitation from before, Serenity’s face was indifferent. It was as if her heart had died.
“Where’s Sonny?”
“Mr. Lewis is still at my place. I asked him to take care of Sonny for me.”
“Isn’t Sonny terrified of Mr. Lewis?”
“He fell asleep before I came here.”
Serenity was struck by realization.

“I’m fine, Liberty. You should go back first. Sonny will be scared if he wakes sees Mr. Lewis instead of you.”
Serenity asked her sister to leave.
“Seren...”
Serenity comforted her sister. “Trust me, Liberty. I’ll be fine.”
Liberty looked at Zachary, but he was staring intently at her sister. It appeared he was afraid that she would fly away if he even
blinked.
When she looked at her sister’s resigned expression, she sighed deeply and said to Zachary, “Zachary, let’s take a walk. We’ll
have a few words alone.”
Liberty stood up and went out.
Zachary followed silently.
Outside the house, Liberty stopped and turned to look at this brother–in–law whom she once admired and always nagged for her
sister to treat well.
She could see that Zachary was physically and mentally exhausted by Serenity after confessing everything, but she did not
sympathize with him.
They were all adults. They had to be prepared to face the consequences of any decision they made.
