Cupid's Arrow hit me hard! novel Chapter 2147

When Serenity woke up, it was already early morning the next day.

She opened her eyes and saw herself lying in bed, feeling a bit confused. Was she not in the car?

How long did she sleep?

She turned her head and saw the man sleeping beside her. She shifted her body and quietly watched Zachary.

As she watched, she could not help but reach out and touch his face.

This man of great eminence was hers!

Such thoughts made Serenity feel a sweet sensation in her heart.

She intended to lean in and kiss his face. It was right then that Zachary opened his eyes. Seeing her getting closer, he guessed what she wanted to do, so he closed his eyes again.

Serenity chuckled softly. “You’re awake.”

“I’m not awake, I’m still dreaming. I dreamt that my wife wanted to kiss me, so I’ll wait for her to finish kissing, and then I’ll wake up.”

Serenity burst into laughter.

“You’re talking now yet you say you’re not awake.”

“I was sleep-talking.”

As an old married couple, kissing was their favorite daily activity.

Serenity was not shy either. She rolled over and pressed herself on top of him, leaning down to kiss his lips. Zachary pressed her head with one hand, wanting to deepen the kiss, but she moved her lips away and planted several gentle kisses on his face.

“You can wake up now.”

Serenity playfully stuck out her tongue. “I don’t know, I wanted to close my eyes for a moment as my eyelids felt heavy. The next second, I was already fast asleep. I guess it’s true that I've been too busy recently, and I haven’t gotten enough time to rest. Look, I have dark circles under my eyes now.”

“Exactly, right? I feel so sorry for you when I see you like this. Seren, you’ve achieved a lot. The company you founded is going in the right direction. The number of workers and delivery trucks has also been increasing steadily.

“You don’t have to worry about market demands anymore. You have even secured a good number of orders from neighboring cities. About the small family business we own, my mother is still running it. Don’t take the business over from my mother yet, as that would leave her bored at home all time.

“Just stick around and learn the business, let my mom run the actual business for a few more years. As for the few businesses owned by both of us, I hired some professional managers to look over the operations. You just need to know how much money we’re making, you don’t have to handle business matters personally.

“It saddens me to see you so exhausted.”

It was a good thing to marry a strong and independent wife. However, as he saw his wife striving to do everything she could to measure up to his achievements, Zachary would much rather she be less ambitious and live the easy life of a wealthy man’s wife.

Too bad for him, however, Serenity could never settle for such a life.

Her sister’s failed marriage had led her to believe firmly that a woman must have her own job regardless of her marital status. Only then, they could be financially independent.
