Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 5437

Laurence looked at Noelle, then at the necklace she had placed on his palm. He asked, “Are two days enough? You will give me an answer, right?”

“Sir, I’m never one to back down or run away.”

Noelle was flustered and at a loss at first, but her mind had never been clearer now.

With two days to think things through, Noelle believed she would give Laurence the right answer.

“Noelle, the only thing you need to consider is whether you want to marry me and spend the rest of your life with me. Nothing else should carry weight. Don’t worry about the opposing voices.

“The Longbottoms are my family, but I don’t see them as one. I’m only regaining leadership over the family to stop my enemy from occupying the seat.

“They have no say in my marriage, and the opinions that matter belong to those who have always loved to see us together. Mom, Master, and my family all love you.”

Fearing that Noelle would worry about opposition from the Longbottoms, Laurence repeatedly emphasized to her that those people lacked the standing to interfere in his life decisions.

The loved ones Laurence counted as family were highly progressive. Plus, they believed that Laurence and Noelle made a great couple. Instead of stopping them from being together, they blamed Laurence for not telling Noelle how he felt a long time ago.

Jane had given Laurence a nudge, forcing him to put his heart on the line.

“I understand, sir.”

“Get some rest. I’ll check what we have for dinner.”

Noelle replied, “I should take care of dinner, sir. You should be the one resting.”

“Stop fighting me on this. It has been a while since I was in the kitchen. I must be rusty now. My friends and family are going to make fun of me if I can’t whip up something good.”

The Johnson boys might be born into privilege, but they were taught essential life skills early on. All of them knew how to cook. This was the hallmark of the Johnson family education across generations, ensuring that all their children grew up to be exceptionally remarkable individuals.
