Serenity and Zachary York



Even a simple supper looked extremely appetizing.

Isabella was hungry as she only ate a few small bites and skipped dinner.

"Have you eaten?" Isabella asked as she started digging in.

Although Austin was her chef, she held respect for him after knowing he had a career of his own.

Despite being a successful businessman, he continued learning and even gave up on his identity as a boss to travel far and become her private chef.

Besides, he adapted quickly to being a chef and treated her respectfully.

Isabella dared say that Austin would achieve greater things in the future.

The man's potential was unimaginable.

That was why she often teased Tati. If Tati truly liked Austin, Isabella would happily play matchmaker.

He was indeed an outstanding man and handsome to boot.

Austin and Tati would make a good-looking couple.

"Yes, I have."

Austin would never let himself go hungry.

While Isabella was handling official matters, he had already cooked dinner for himself and ate it. He even walked around the area near the hotel to familiarize himself with the surroundings.

He started preparing supper for Isabella after nine o'clock as she told him she would be back around eleven.

Since Austin had already eaten, Isabella did not invite him to join her for supper.

Austin did not linger and walked to the living room to sit.

He would clean up the table after Isabella finished eating.

She ate quickly yet elegantly.

Such was the etiquette of an elite lady.

"You can start cleaning up now, Austin."

Isabella walked out of the dining area.

Austin responded before he went to clear the table and washed the dishes. He even cleaned up the kitchen, ensuring it was spotless.

Only then did he exit the kitchen.

Isabella seemed to be messaging someone.

He walked over and stopped before her. He said gently, "I shall leave if you have no further instructions for me."

"There's none. You can go rest now."

"Will you be having breakfast at your usual time tomorrow?"

Isabella replied, "Yes. You've worked hard today, Austin."

Austin replied softly, “It's not difficult. This is my responsibility.”

He only had to prepare three meals a day for Isabella throughout the business trip.

Back at the Dunboy Manor, he would have to prepare meals for her entire family. Sometimes, he even had to cook extra when other O'Connor family members came over to eat.

Luckily, there were personnel who helped with preparing the ingredients. Otherwise, he would have been utterly exhausted.

"You should rest early too, Ms. Isabella. Good night."

Austin left right after.

The female bodyguards who stood by the door closed it after Austin exited.noveldrama

Isabella locked the door to her suite from the inside.

Austin and the two male bodyguards stayed in a family suite a floor below. He took the smaller room while the two bodyguards took the beds in the bigger room.

Although they lived in the same suite, the three of them seldom interacted.

Isabella did not like having talkative people by her side.

Her bodyguards simply focused on work and were people of few words.
