The best we can do now is to swallow our prides and pay Serenity a few morevisits.
John took the young ones there the last time.
You know youngsters.
They can be impulsive.
Noah even said he’ll smash Serenity’s shop.
He didn’t go there to reconcile.
I think he made the whole thing worse.
“Stuart, we should talk it over with everybody.
We, the grown-ups, should personally apologize to Serenity.
Maybe we can convince her to delete the tweet and share a post that we have settled our differences.
It’s the only way we can get out of this iness.”
The power of the internet was beyond everything they knew.
Things had gotten out of hand.
Sigh.
Had they known, the Hunts would not have taken this approach.
They would have demanded money from Serenity at her workplace.
It was probably a better idea “I guess we don’t have any other choice.” Serenity neither knew about the Hunts’ new attempt to bury thehatchet, nor did it matter to her Her relatives may want to patch things up, but Serenity was not going to budge and fork out the money The Hunts look a chunk out of her parents’ life insurance payout and occupied her parents’ home and field without taking Serenity and Liberty under their care.
Now that the Hunts needed money, they expected Serenity to dish out hundreds of thousands forOld Mrs.
Hunt’s medical bills Serenity might find it in her heart to compensate Old Mrs.
Hunt a little if the relatives were on the breadline Yet, the Hunts were wealthier than she was.
Why should she pay for the medical ins then? When the afternoon came around, Serenity got lunch readyand waited for her sister to eat together.
As her mind wandered to the man who tried to shut her up with money, Serenity had a passing thought about bringing Zachary over to havelunch together.
She told Jasmine, “Jasmine, I’m going over to bring my man here for lunch.
Watch the shop.
Tell my sister that Sonny has already eaten when she comes.”
Sonny had soft-boiled vegetables and a bit of formula before he went for a nap.
Jasmine teased, “Ah, I see Mr.York comes to mind when you have good food to share.
It seems your relationship with him is going well.” “He’s the one supporting my means andcovering all the living expenses.
He should get a taste of the food I make.
I’ll take a cab there and get a ride back with him.” “Hurry along.
I’ll be here.” Jasmine was happy that her best friend was making strides in her marriage.
Serenity left for York Corporation.
She only phoned Zachary once there.
Zachary, Josh, and a few senior executives were talking business with an important client when Serenity’s call came in.
Furrowing his brows, Zachary hesitated for a moment before taking the call.
“Mr. York, I’m outside your office. Are you on your lunch break yet? I’m here to take you to my shop forlunch. Surprise!” Zachary was lost for words. Sure, it was a surprise, but not the good kind.
Thank goodness he was good at staying composed because that was quite a scare.
“Mr.York?” Serenity said as she did not get a response from the man.
Tugging on his tie, Zachary replied in a husky voice, “I’m on my break but the clienthasn’t left.
We’re still ironing out the business details with the client, so it’ll probably take a while.
Why don’t you go ahead, and I’ll meet you at your shop for lunch?” “How long more do you need? I didn’t drive.
I took a cab.
It’s okay.
I’ll wait for you outside your office building.
We can go back together when you’re done with your work” Zachary lifted his arm to look at his watch before responding,”There’s a dessert shop right across the office.
Wait for me there.
I’ll see you in a bit.” Serenity turned her head and saw the dessert shop.
Without a second thought, she took Zachary’s suggestion Once Serenity hung up the call, 7 u nconsciously sighed in relief.
He was afraid she might barge in and that would give his game away…
Since Serenity came for him, Zachary went to the VIP reception and quickly closed the deal with the client He then arranged for Josh and the few senior executives to take the client to have a meal at the Wiltspoon Hotel “Aren’t you coming along, Mr York?” the client asked.
“Something came up, so I can’t have lunch with you, Mr.Johnson.
We’ll have it some other time” The important client today was none other than Remy Johnson, a member of the wealthiest family in Annenburg FC & Co hadsubsidiaries in Wiltspoon but with FC & Co.’s Wiltspoon branch being sensible enough not to undercut the local tycoon, they had no reason to cross paths with York Corporation This time, FC 8z Co.’s Wiltspoon branch undertook a huge project and was looking for a potential partnership with either York Corporation or Stone Group Both York Corporation and Stone Group were interested in doing business with Remy After a discussion with the head of the Johnson household, Remy was leaning toward working with York Corporation That was the start of a business relationship between both giants.
Remy tactfully ended the conversation Josh ushered Reiny to come along Remy’s bodyguards were waiting outside
kemny often traveled with his security detail whenever he was out and about.
It was said that out of his ten siblings, Remy could not fight to save his life.
Hence, he was surrounded by bodyguards when in public.
Zachary personally walked Remy and the entourage to the elevator.
Once the group was in the elevator, Zachary returned to his office and took out a pair of binoculars to look downfrom the window.
With Remy and the rest cruising in a car out of York Corporation, he turned around He whipped out his phone to call his bodyguards to wait for himon the first floor of the office building A few minutes later, Zachary went down to the first floor.
“Sir.”
“Go on and have your lunch.
No need to follow me.
Just give me the keys to the MPV.” Zachary said as he walked.
A bodyguard handed the keys of the MPV over to Zachary, The bodyguards followed behind Zachary when the latter waved them off.
It was a signal to stop following Zachary Since Mr Zachary was using the N that case, they should not tag, al it could only mean that he would be with the missus.
While waiting for Zachary at the dessert shop, Serenity did not want to sitin the establishment without getting anything, so she ordered two milkshakes to go. Since she was sitting near the entrance, Serenity was able to spot Zachary when he drove out of the office building.
Carrying her inilkshakes, she walked out of the shop.
With a smile across her beautiful face, Serenity waved at Zachary.
Zachary drove over and pulled up in front of her.
Serenity took a few steps forward and opened the door to the passenger seat.
She got into the car and put on her seat belt before Zachary restarted the engine.
“Why are you wearing a black mask?” Serenity asked in passing.
Without a word, Zachary removed the mask He did not want anyone to recognize him as he drove out of his office building.
Even though not many had seen hun in person before, it was best Zachary practiced caution.
Instead of dwelling on Zachary’s refusal to answer, Serenity asked, “Do you want a milkshake? I bought you a cup.
I’ll have mine now, and I’ll take over the wheel when I finish it.
You can then have your drink.” “No, thank you.” Zachary never had milkshakes before.
“HI give it to Jasmine then.
Jasmine likes milkshakes.
She loves to pair milkshakes with sweet treats for tea.” “I guess girls prefer to have milkshakes.
I rarely have it.
I don’t like it that much either.” Sereillty took a sip and said, “I seldom drink milkshakes too.
It’s not exactly the healthiest thing.” She would always order juice whenever Jasmine placed a delivery order for milkshakes.
“What made you come all the way here to pick me up today?” Zachary asked in a lowvoice “You could’ve called ine before you came.
What if I wasn’t in the office? You would’ve come all this way for nothing.”
He just happened to be in the office today, Usually, Zachary would not be around at this hour “Do you always talk business when it’s time to eat?” “Yes.” Zachary added, “Many deals are closed during lunch and dinner appointments.” Serenity said, “Oh I’ll call you in advance next time.
