Serenity also seemed to be a lot colder toward him, which flustered Shawn.
“Jasmine took Sonny to the supermarket.”
Serenity took out her phone and took a picture of the bouquet. Her eyes were always on the bunch of flowers and not Shawn.
Seeing how focused Serenity was when she took pictures of the bouquet, Shawn asked tentatively, “Serenity, this bouquet…”
Serenity said, “My husband gave it to me. Isn’t it pretty? I think it’s beautiful. I love it!”
After taking countless photos of the bouquet, Serenity put down her phone to pick up the bouquet and took a sniff. “It smells so good too!”
To Shawn, this scene was an eyesore.
“Oh, your husband gave it to you? What’s the occasion today? I haven’t seen him send flowers to you before.” Shawn’s smile was a little stiff. His tone was a little bitter as if he had a bone to pick.
Serenity looked up at him and said, “Does it need to be an occasion for my husband to send me flowers? If I want, my husband can send me a bunch of flowers every day. I was just worried that he’d spend too much because a bouquet isn’t cheap. It’s not edible either. I told my husband that it would be better if he saved that money to buy meat instead of flowers. That’s why he never sent me flowers.”
Shawn said, “Right…”
“Shawn, are you looking for Jas? Why don’t you call her? She should be back soon.”
“It’s nothing. I just passed by and thought of coming in here to see you two. I’ll head back to work then.”
“Okay.”
Serenity responded while she admired the bouquet that Zachary gave her.
When Shawn saw that her attention was on the bunch of flowers, he felt unbearable. But he could not say anything about it, so he turned around and left.
Since the last time Serenity rejected Shawn’s invitation to attend a business reception with him, she was indifferent to him. She had always intentionally emphasized to him that she was a married woman.
Shawn thought, ‘Didn’t Serenity get married to a stranger?’
Jas said that Serenity only got married to put Liberty’s mind at ease and that Serenity and her husband signed a half year agreement. They would divorce after the contract period.
Did Serenity fall in love with her stranger husband?
Shawn was listless.
“Shawn? Why are you here? Don’t you need to go to work?”
Jasmine brought Sonny back just in time to see her cousin’s dejected appearance and immediately understood what was going on
“Jas.”
Jasmine called out to Shawn and he quickly regulated his emotions in an attempt to cover up his loss.
“I was sending some documents to my dad and passed by after that, so I came to see you girls.”
Shawn’s excuse could deceive Serenity, but not Jasmine.
Jasmine was aware that her uncle would usually discuss business with clients at their hotel but the bookstore was not en route from Lowe Enterprise’s hotel to the company.
Jasmine did not expose Shawn’s lie and said, “Wait for me here. I’ll bring Sonny and come right out. Let’s go for a cup of coffee.”
After that, Jasmine carried Sonny into the store. The little boy was already asleep.
“Seren, Sonny is asleep.”
Jasmine handed the little guy to her friend. Seeing the bouquet on the table, Jasmine understood the main reason for Shawn’s listlessness. She did not need to ask to know that Mr. York gave this bouquet to Serenity.
Jasmine thought, ‘I guess Serenity made up with her husband. Mr. York even gave her flowers.”
Serenity carried her nephew. “Sonny slept late today. He usually naps at noon.” Jasmine put the snacks and toys she bought on the table.
“You bought so many toys for Sonny again.”
“I bought whatever he liked, and it didn’t cost much. Seren, did Mr. York give you this bouquet? It’s so beautiful!”
When Jasmine praised the beautiful bouquet, she winked at her friend.
Serenity’s face flushed, and she said, “He told me he came
across a florist and saw this beautiful bouquet, so he got them for me. He also said that it didn’t mean anything.”
Seeing Zachary so troubled and him running away after he gave her the bouquet was enough for her to reminisce for a few days. It was nothing but hilarious!
Jasmine said, “Do you believe that it doesn’t mean anything? Seren, if you both have feelings for each other, you two should seize the opportunity. I’m still waiting to attend your real wedding so I can be your bridesmaid!”
Jasmine teased her friend.
“You’re thinking a little too far ahead.”
“I don’t think it’s too far ahead. Haha! Seren, I’m going to grab a cup of coffee with Shawn. What do you want? I’ll get a takeout for you later.”
Serenity thought about it for a while and said, “Just get me a cup of milk tea, please.” “Okay,” Jasmine replied immediately. “You watch over the store. I’m going to have coffee.”
“Go ahead!”
The store was not busy at this time anyway. Serenity would either be napping at the cashier or making her handicrafts.
Jasmine left.
Shawn was waiting outside.
When Jasmine came out, the smile on her face faded. “Let’s go.”
She went straight to Shawn’s car.
Shawn saw that his cousin’s expression was a little serious and he felt a little guilty for no reason. At the same time in York Corporation, Zachary walked out of the elevator happily.
Mr. Chaplin approached him with a letter.
“Boss, Mr. Bucham told me to hand this letter over to you personally. He said it involves your wife.”
Only a few people in the company knew that the CEO was married. Mr. Chaplin was one of the lucky people who was in the know.
Zachary took the letter without saying anything and went straight into his office. Sitting down on the black swivel chair, Zachary opened the envelope and retrieved the letter from the inside to unfold it. However, it was an anonymous letter, and the content was simple. t was to tell him that Serenity helped Elisa to come up with ideas on how to pester him.
Zachary called Josh immediately.
The nosy Josh was waiting for his boss to call him.
“Who wrote this letter?”
Josh told Zachary that it was related to Serenity, so Josh must have known who wrote the letter.
“Your brother–in–law.”
“My mother–in–law only gave birth to Liberty and my wife, so I don’t have a brother–in–law.”
Josh giggled. “Well, close enough. The Hunts are your wife’s side of the family. Although they’re not siblings, they’re cousins and still related by blood.”
Zachary said coldly, “They’re not worthy!”
“John Hunt wrote the letter.”
Josh finally answered Zachary after teasing him.
“He doesn’t know that you’re the CEO of York Corporation. He just knows that Mr. York is tired of Elisa’s pestering, so he wrote this anonymous letter addressed to Mr. York, thinking that Mr. York could deal with your wife.”
