Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 2239

After much silence, Liberty said, “They won’t now, but they might do it in the future. We can raise Sonny well, so Sonny can make his own decisions. His father paid for child support after all. I won’t stop the boy from having a relationship with the Browns.”

“Yeah. Let’s end this conversation here, Liberty. Today is the opening of your new restaurant. We should keep the mood uplifted for a booming business.”

Liberty smiled. “I appreciate it. My restaurant will thrive.”

She was confident with her business management and cooking.

“Ms. Hunt.”

A server entered the restaurant with a strange man.

“Ms. Hunt, this mister insists on meeting you. He said he came all the way from Jensburg.”

Jensburg?

The sisters turned to look at the strange man.

The man politely extended his right hand to Liberty. After the handshake, he turned to Serenity, who was next to Liberty, and asked with a smile, “You must be Ms. Serenity Hunt, the wife of Zachary York. I heard a lot about you in Jensburg.”

He then reached his right hand out to Serenity.

Out of courtesy, Serenity shook his hand too. The man said with a smile, “Pleased to meet you, Ms. Serenity.”

Serenity grinned. “How should I address you?”

“Call me Mr. Fletcher.”

“Mr. Fletcher, did Ms. Caroline Fisher send you?” Liberty asked.

“Ms. Hunt, this is from the miss, her gift for the opening of your restaurant. I hope you will accept it.”

Liberty refused, saying, “It’s an honor that Ms. Fisher sent you to give her congratulations, and that’s more than enough. I can’t accept Ms. Fisher’s generous gift.”

Mr. Fletcher looked at Liberty cheerfully and uttered, “The miss said that in the event you refused the gift, I should tell you that you can’t push away a gift from your elders.”

Liberty had no words.

If Caroline and Audrey were cousins, it would make Caroline an aunt to Liberty and Serenity. Even though Caroline was younger than Liberty, she could claim seniority over Liberty as an aunt.

“Ms. Hunt, this is a token of the miss’s regard. She hopes you can accept it, so I can report back to her with the job done.”

Mr. Fletcher made a sad face and added, “I’ll be punished if I can’t complete the task given by the miss. On top of that, I’ll lose three months of bonus. Ms. Hunt, although I don’t have children and have only my parents to care for, it will hurt me to lose the three months of bonus.”
