Chapter 217
Hank thought of the York family, and then his mind shifted to his sister-in-law’s conditions. He felt like pigs would fly before Zachary was Mr. York. Serenity was indeed beautiful, but all her other aspects were far inferior to the Stone family’s daughter. If Mr. York did not take a liking to someone like Elisa, why would he fancy Serenity instead? After making comparisons, Hank automatically dismissed the idea, feeling that he was overthinking. There was no way the Zachary he knew was the young master of the York family! “My eyes must be playing tricks on me. Come on, let’s go have breakfast.” Jessica was hoping that Hank could get acquainted with Mr. York. That way, if she followed Hank, she would be able to take advantage of that relationship to get to know Mr. York as well. Maybe she could even squeeze into that circle of high society. However, reality gave her a tight slap in the face. That was impossible! She had better not daydream. Seizing Hank’s heart and making him divorce Liberty to marry her was already the best ending. Jessica stopped thinking about anything else.
Zachary did not see Hank, but Jim did.
Fortunately, Hank did not know the bodyguards around Zachary, but the bodyguards had to be familiar with the faces of the people around the missus. Thus, Jim recognized Hank.
After getting into the car, he said to his boss, “Mr. Zachary, I think I just saw Missus’s brother-in-law in front of the hotel. I only caught a glimpse of him, so I can’t be sure if it was really him, but the woman beside him wasn’t Missus’s sister. However, it’s also possible that I was mistaken.”
That man was Missus’s brother-in-law. What Jim saw was the cruelest thing that could happen to a married woman, her husband having an affair!
Zachary did not speak immediately. He was silent for a while before saying in a low voice, “I told you, her affairs have nothing to do with me.”
Jim opened his mouth, wanting to say something but had no idea what to say either.
It was clear that Mr. Zachary and Missus were at odds.
They seemed to be having a cold war.
Missus did not take the initiative to call Mr. Zachary, and Mr. Zachary did not go back to stay in Brynfield.
However, the bodyguards did not know why the couple was fighting, so they were helpless.
Zachary fell into silence after he had spoken.
Jim turned his head and peeked twice at Zachary, to see him staring at his phone and looking at something,
It was a message sent to him by Serenity.
She saw his national MPV that he used to lie to her about being poor parked downstairs and asked if he was not working today. Zachary was in a dilemma. ‘Should I reply? ‘I spent the night at my own villa last night. ‘I didn’t go back to Bryn field. ‘I thought she would ask about it. Even if she didn’t call, I thought she would send a message at least, so I waited until late at night. My phone did end up ringing a few times, but it was never from her.’ Zachary’s pride stopped him from bowing to her. Since she did not care about him, he would not care about her either. His fingers moved, not to reply to her message, but to delete it instead. He also deleted her number from his contact list. Serenity never received a reply after sending Zachary that message, so she knew he was still angry. He was mad because he did not believe that she and Shawn were innocent. She also did not send him any more messages. After Sonny had finished eating, she carried him and went out with her sister.
