NovelEnglishChapter 973 Plopping herself in Zachary’s arms, Serenity yawned and said, “I forgot to talk to you about one thing.” “What's that?” Zachary took anything that cout of his wife’s mouth seriously-no matter how trivial.
“My money-hungry relatives are planning the old switcheroo. They want my cousin to go under the knife to look likeand replaceas Mrs. York.” Zachary glowered.
“My cousin is as old as | am. Our dads look a little alike. Plus, we both take after our dads. | guess you can say that we kinda resemble each other. At least, that was what people used to say when we were little. haven't seen her for more than a decade after my parents’ passing. | don’t know what she looks like now.” Zachary uttered with a scowl, “These people have their heads in the clouds. Seren, is my father-in-law really your grandparents* son?” “That's not important when you have parents who play favorites. There are cases where the child can get less attention than an adopted child too.

Can you look into it and stop her from looking like me? | got the word out of Noah when your bodyguards caught him stalking and taking photos of me.” Noah was not straight with Serenity. All he said was that the photos were for Harriet, so the latter could mimic Serenity’s mannerisms.
It was not hard to guess that the Hunts were trying to get Harriet to play Serenity.
Serenity and the Hunts were way past reconciliation. Now that Serenity becMrs. York, the Hunts resented her for refusing them to ride on her coattails. On top of that, Serenity was the cause of their heavy financial losses.
The plan to have Harriet replace Serenity was so they got someone on the inside to benefit from as well as to get even with Serenity and Zachary.
Zachary immediately called Josh and put Josh in charge of this.
Serenity quietly stared at Zachary as Zachary got off the phone call. With a sparkle in his dark eyes, Zachary said tenderly, “I got you, Seren. | won't let them get away with it.
“Josh has a point. They would hold a grudge for losing everything they cared about, and they would only try to get even when backed into a corner. Now that they had nothing to lose, they would do anything in the nof revenge.” “They're a pest and a nuisance.” Reaching out, Serenity caressed Zachary’s face. “Zachary. | want...” Zachary drew his face near, lifting his chin and narrowing his eyes as he puckered up for a kiss.
Serenity smiled and met his lips as he wished.

He was turned on, but it was the tof the month for her, so he had to deal with it.
“Zachary, I'm not mad and won't make a fuss about you placing security aroundbehind my back.” Zachary kissed her and explained, “They're not there to spy on you. I'm just worried about your safety. You're my wife, and there are so many people after you now that your identity is out in the open. You can't stay in the house forever. | had to do it for your safety,” He would rather die than admit that he wanted to know her every move.
“I understand where you're coming from. If it weren't for the bodyguards, we wouldn't have known what the Hunts were up to.
Get more eyes on them. At least we'll have evidence when they get desperate and commit a crime. They'll only leave us alone once they're locked behind bars.” Zachary was a powerful man, but unlike the lawless heroes in the books, he had his principles and drew the line somewhere.
Serenity did not want her man to break the law because of these vile people.
