Should Serenity call Zachary to wake him up?

Nana mentioned that Zachary would be furious if anyone were to disrupt his sleep.

Serenity looked at the time. It was past midnight.

Zachary must still be awake since he usually came home around this time.

Serenity took the plunge and called Zachary.

Zachary was wide awake. In fact, he locked the door from the inside on purpose, albeit he had no idea of the reason behind his own actions. Anyway, it triggered Zachary to see Serenity and Shawn

Chapter 5438
The medicinal herb garden earned its name from the wide variety of healing plants grown there.Usually, Noelle and Laurence tended to the plants themselves. No one else was allowed to mess with the herbs. The crops could be ruined by untrained hands. Lilian took the load off Noelle and Laurence. They could be at ease, with Lilian overseeing the garden. Emerging from the cabin in the garden, Lilian spotted Noelle and smiled. “Hey, Noelle. I heard the gate opening, so I came out to check it out.” Security was tight around Laurence’s residence. “Master, did I disrupt your rest?” Jane came out of the cabin too. Noelle said apologetically, “I didn’t know where to go, so I dropped by. I might have interrupted you and Mom.” “Silly girl. Why are you being so formal with us? Jane and I weren’t resting. We were just chatting. Come inside the cabin. Don’t just stand there. You look like you have a lot on your mind.“Come inside and tell me. I will help you no matter what it is.”

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

Laurence’s finger pressed against Noelle’s lips, stopping any words of refusal. With his gentle eyes, he said tenderly, “Nothing else matters so long as we love each other. Noelle, say you’ll be mine. I promise to only love you like Ben loves Mom. It’s just you and only you in this lifetime. “Don’t worry about the Longbottoms getting in the way. They have no right to dictate what I do. Marriage is my own, and I want to be with the one I want. No one can stop us from being together,” Laurence said with absolute confidence. Jane had a point, but her words did not deter Laurence. Besides, Jane was basically suggesting he tell Noelle how he felt. “Noelle, the road ahead is full of challenges since I have just taken over the family. I don’t want our feelings to be used against us, nor do I want them to drive us apart. I can’t stand other women getting close to me. My heart belongs to you.“If you feel overwhelmed by it all, I’ll give you two days to think it over. What do you say?”

Laurence picked up the necklace again and walked behind Noelle, intending to fasten it around her neck.“Mr. Laurence, no.” Noelle snapped back to her senses and hurriedly stopped him. “Sir, this necklace is far too precious. I can’t accept it.”It was a necklace meant to be worn only by the wife of the head of the Longbottoms.She was nothing more than Laurence’s bodyguard. What right did she have to wear something so valuable?Laurence gazed at her deeply. “Noelle, I bought this necklace to give to you as a token of my love. If you don’t want it, then it has no meaning. I’ll throw it away.”With those words, he gripped the necklace as if to toss it aside.“Mr. Laurence!”Noelle quickly stopped him again.This necklace cost him tens of millions. How could he just throw it away?“Mr. Laurence, please don’t force me,” she said helplessly. “We’re not a good match. I’m just an orphan.”“I’m an orphan too. My family is gone. I was raised by Doc and the others. You know that. We

“Who said anything about acting? Look at me, Noelle. Stop backing away. Let’s have an honest conversation,” said Laurence.Noelle looked at him.“Noelle, do you know why I bought this necklace? At first, it was because it belonged to my ancestors. As a descendant, it was my duty to bring it back.“But the second reason I bought it was to give it to you as a token of my love.”A token of his love?Noelle looked at him, stunned.The panic in her eyes became even more obvious.‘Oh no. Is Mr. Laurence really confessing to me?’This necklace once belonged to the wife of the head of the Longbottoms. Although she had later given it to her daughter as a wedding gift, whenever people saw the necklace, the first thing they thought of was the lady of the Longbottoms.It symbolized the position of the lady of the house.However, Laurence said he bought it back to give it to her as a love token. That meant…“S-sir, s-stop joking around. That’s not funny at all. How could I accept such a

“You don’t know how to act, huh?”Jane drew out the last word, exchanging a meaningful glance with Lilian. Then, they stood up at the same time and said to Laurence, “Lilian and I came back with you because we were worried something might happen, but it seems everything went smoothly, so we can stop worrying.“We’re exhausted from rushing back. We’ll go and rest now.”Laurence understood exactly what they were trying to do. He and Noelle stood up to see them off, but Lilian refused.“We’re all family. Stop acting like strangers. You two get some rest too, or you can discuss how you’re going to play the part of a couple.”Lilian patted Laurence’s shoulder as she passed, encouraging him to confess to Noelle.Jane said to Noelle, “You’re family to us.”Noelle tried to respond, but Jane stopped her.With that, the two ladies left.Only Laurence and Noelle were in the house.Laurence turned to Noelle and asked, “Where’s the necklace I bought at the auction?”“In the car,” Noelle
