Serenity finished her breakfast and cleaned up in the kitchen before telling Zachary, “I’m going out. Don’t forget to lock the door on your way out.”
Zachary glanced at her before turning his attention back to his toast.
“That reminds me. Can I take some of the fruits to my sister’s?”
She bought too much fruit the other day for the family event and they would be left to rot in the fridge since she and Zachary could not finish everything in time.
Zachary answered , “Your sister is family. You can take whatever you want without asking me. You’re free to make decisions over household affairs unless it’s a matter that requires a discussion between us.”
“We’re not that close, and I’m living in your house. I think it’s respectful to you as a husband to ask.
“I’m not the type to hog all the good stuff for my own family. I bought a little too much fruit the other day and I think they’ll go to waste since we can’t eat that much. At least now my sister can have some before they turn bad.”
“Sure,” Zachary responded. Seeing that Zachary had no issue with that, Serenity
packed two bags of fruit and brought them to her sister.
Liberty said to Serenity, “You don’t have to bring gifts when you visit. I have money to get things.”
“It’s only Zachary and me at home. I might eat some, but Zachary doesn’t like fruit. It’s a waste to leave it to rot. He told me to give them to you. He said you’re family.”
Serenity had never seen Zachary munching on fruit.
Zachary often worked late and holed up in his room when he was back. She only saw him in the mornings. It did not appear that Zachary had grabbed any snacks from the house.
Serenity suspected that Zachary would eat out like before if she did not make him breakfast. He probably had never drank from the tap at home.
At that point, Liberty accepted the bags of fruit.
Serenity played with her nephew for a while before heading to the shop.
With Serenity gone, Zachary threw the toasts and the paper with the Word of the Day into the trash. The toast was delicious at first, but the wheat contained too much carbs for his liking
Together with the leftover breakfast, the Word of the Day also chucked away.
He said it before, and he would say it again! He would
never know the meaning of jealousy! Zachary took out the trash with him in case Serenity saw the paper and breakfast in the bin. The bodyguards were waiting for him downstairs. Since Serenity had already left the building, they did not have to worry about the missus seeing them here. With Mr. Zachary coming downstairs with a trash bag, the bodyguards were stunned. In all the years they had been by Mr. Zachary’s side, the bodyguards saw Mr. Zachary as a speckless God. Zachary put the trash in the dumpster before walking to his car. Since the bodyguards were not keeping up with him, he turned his head around and asked, “Are you under a freezing spell? What are you standing there for?” Snapping out of their thoughts, the bodyguards kept up with his pace. A bodyguard was in charge of driving the national MPV to York Corporation every day. Zachary would then drive the vehicle back home from work.
Half an hour later.
A red Ferrari stood out by forcefully blocking Zachary’s convoy entering York Corporation.
The owner of the sports car was a lady in red. With long, wavy hair curtaining her back, the woman had an
exquisite face and her neck was complemented with a diamond necklace. She also wore a diamond bracelet and matching diamond earrings. She was shining bright like a
diamond for sure.
The girl got out of her car and approached the Rolls Royce to knock on the window.
Zachary wound down his car window. “Elisa Stone! You have two minutes to move your car!”
Zachary threatened the lady coldly. The apple of the Stones‘ eye, Elisa was the princess of Stone Group‘s chairman and the twin sister of the CEO, Clive Stone. Elisa was the most eligible bachelorette.
“Hang on, Zachary.“.
Struck by a thought, Elisa turned around and ran back to the sports car to grab a huge bouquet of roses.
She returned with the bouquet and shoved it through Zachary‘s open window while saying, “These are for you, Zachary. I know you and my brother don‘t get along, but I love you. I feel the need to confess my love to you, so you know I‘m your one true love.”
Stone Group and York Corporation might be sworn enemies, but they were certainly business rivals due to clashing trades. Both groups were not on the best of terms, to say the least.
Yet, it was love at first sight for Clive‘s sister, Elisa, when she first laid her eyes on Zachary at an event many years ago. Due to the conflict of interest between both giants, Clive and her parents disapproved of Elisa‘s new–found love.
Although Elisa was pampered all her life, it did not mean
she was foolish. She thought about giving up on Zachary, but the passing of years failed to wipe him out of her mind. As a matter of fact, she found it harder to resist Zachary.
Elisa was really into Zachary‘s aloofness. He was cool in her eyes. Seeing that Zachary kept away from young women, Elisa took it as a challenge to win his heart. Since she could not get Zachary out of her head, Elisa decided to disregard her family and boldly confess her love to Zachary.
From today on, she, Elisa Stone, would openly go in pursuit of Zachary!
Zachary gave a black look.
Grabbing the bouquet, Zachary hurled it far and away.
He then wound the window up and callously instructed the driver, “Drive!”
“Zachary! Zachary! I love you! I want your heart!” Elisa shouted as she pounded on the car window. Zachary‘s driver started the engine and asked, “Sir, what about Ms. Stone‘s car?”
“Hit it!”
The driver did not floor the pedal, but one of Zachary‘s escorting vehicles raced ahead instead and smashed Elisa‘s million–dollar Ferrari out of the way.
Bang!
The security guards on duty watched with their jaws dropped.
With Elisa‘s car out of the way, Zachary‘s Rolls Royce entered the company‘s private parking lot.
Elisa was dumbfounded as she stared at the damage made to her new sports car. By the time she came to and ran after Zachary, the security guards had closed the gates.
“Zachary!”
Elisa shouted out loud, “You have to get me a new car since you crashed mine. You owe me one. I‘ll bug you every day till you get me a new car.”
It pained her that her car was wrecked. However, on second thought, Elisa could use this as an excuse to pester Zachary. Elisa believed the crash presented her with opportunities. Anyway, she had made her stance clear to Zachary that she was seeking his hand!
No matter the outcome, she would have no regrets about going through with her decision.
Nevertheless, Elisa had to admit that Zachary’s stunt to smash her car was bad*ss. Of course, it would have been better if it was not her car.
The security guard was amazed by Ms. Stone’s courage. Not only did she come to York Corporation to kick up a fuss, but she also professed her love for Mr. York. That was definitely some nerves of steel!
