Chapter 248

Author: Gu Lingfei
No wonder Jasmine and Serenity were best friends. They were two peas in a pod.

The tackiest way to coax a girl was to give her money.

When Zachary was in the store, he told Serenity they could not accept Elisa’s seafood for free. Thus, he wanted to transfer money to Serenity and ask her to give the money to Elisa so as not to owe Elisa a favor. However, Serenity refuted so righteously that he was speechless.

They deleted each other’s WhatsApp, and Serenity blocked his number.

If Serenity could not reply to his messages, how could Zachary send her money and make it rain?

Zachary regretted that he acted petty. Just because of a little misunderstanding, he had a cold war with his wife and deleted her WhatsApp.

He did not know how he could add her back.

……

At Waltham Electronics, Hank came out of the general manager’s office with a triumphant smile.

When Jessica saw her boss come back with a bright smile, she immediately followed him into the office and closed the door.

    “Liberty's fat and ugly. She’ll only embarrass me if I take her there. Everyone will laugh at me.”After Hank finished speaking, he pinched Jessica’s pretty face and praised her, “How can she compare to you, Jessica? You’re the apple of my eye now, and I don’t have any feelings for her anymore.“I can’t forgive her for chasing me down the block with a kitchen knife. Although she apologized and treated me better than before, I just couldn’t forgive her. If I didn’t run fast enough that day, she would’ve stabbed me to death!“She’s vicious. I’ve known her for so many years and only realized how vicious she was that day. If it wasn’t for Sonny, I wouldn’t want to go back to that house. Besides, my mother and my sister mentioned that I bought the house before marriage where I paid the down payment and am paying the mortgage, so why should I let her live there?“She doesn’t have a good relationship with my family. Jessica, you’ve met my parents and sister. What do you think of them?”J

    Hank immediately stopped working and brought Jessica out.He was the manager, and Jessica was his secretary. Usually, Hank would take Jessica with him whenever he went out for business, so no one would say anything when the two of them left the office together.The janitor saw Hank driving away with Jessica at the entrance of the office and said to an old security guard, “Mr. Brown and Ms. Yates go in and out together all day long. Is Liberty not worried that Mr. Brown will cheat on her?”Liberty used to work in the same office as Hank, so the old employees still remembered her.The old security guard looked at the janitor oddly.After looking around to make sure that no one else was there, the security guard lowered his voice and said to the janitor, “You clean the office every day and go through the whole building. Don’t you know what happened? Mr. Brown and Ms. Yates are having an affair. How could you not know about it?”The janitor was surprised and asked with interest, “How

    In the evening, when the work day was about to end, Josh knocked on the door to the CEO’s office and entered, carrying a stack of documents in his arms.Zachary raised his head and eyed him for a second before he returned to his work. After Josh sat down, Zachary remarked, “What use is your secretary?”“She’s pregnant! I’m being considerate of her. I don’t want her to run back and forth and tire herself out. Her husband might come looking for me then. So I did it myself.”Josh placed the stack of documents in front of his good friend.“I’ve looked through them. There’s no problem with them, so you just have to sign them.”After he set the documents down, he got up to pour himself a glass of water. He sat back down and proceeded to drink his water while looking at the man sitting opposite him.Zachary was extremely handsome. Even if his face was tense all day in a cold and serious expression, it wasn’t enough to mask his handsome exterior.In this age and day where looks were eve

    “Want to come along?”No matter where it was, wherever Zachary lived, there would be a large collection of fine wines.“No, thanks. I’m scared of getting drunk again. When you get drunk, you have your wife to take care of you. I am but a single dog. No one would take care of me even if I got alcohol poisoning and died.”“You make yourself seem so pitiful. You could go on a blind date too and have a shotgun marriage to get a wife to take care of you.”Josh chuckled. “With you as a precedent, I think I’d better obediently wait for my fate to come around.”“What’s wrong with me? I’m doing just fine!”“Sure, sure. You’re doing just fine. So much so that your expression hasn’t warmed a single degree for the past few days. Your work efficiency has increased a lot, but you’ve made life harder for those under you. These few days, more and more people have automatically volunteered to work overtime even into the wee hours.”York Corporation would not force its employees to work overtime.

    Josh was not surprised that Hank Brown was having an affair.He said, “That sister-in-law of yours changed too much after getting married. When Hank Brown got promoted, he probably thought any other woman would be a better match than her. As time passed, he began losing interest in her.”Zachary’s gaze was cold, and so was his tone of voice. “Why did she change? Because she loved him. She gave birth to a child for him without a care for how her body would change. And to let him focus on his work, she single-handedly raised the kid and took care of the whole household alone. She gave up her youth and her beauty for him.”While Zachary knew that Liberty looked different after her marriage, that was not an excuse for Hank to have an affair. Ruthlessness had long lurked within Hank, but it just had not had the chance to make its appearance before this. Now that he was doing well in his job, he was arrogant and started to look down on his wife, treating her with disgust. If Hank was

    ”Serenity, what’s all this?”Callum had detected the smell of seafood.“It’s seafood. A friend of mine brought it back after holidaying by the beach. She gave me a lot. They’re all fresh, and your brother and I can’t eat that much, so I’m giving some to you guys to bring home and eat.”Callum stole a glance at his nana. Seeing that she was not declining it, he said, “This is a lot.”Seafood was something their family lacked the least.However, since it was given to him by his sister-in-law, he best helped bring them home.“Nana, don’t forget to give everyone a portion to try.”Serenity had meticulously prepared a portion for each family unit, contained in individual nets. After getting home, all Grandma May had to do was to hand it out portion by portion. They were equally divided.“Alright, I will.”Grandma May waited for Callum to put the seafood in the trunk before getting in the car. She then said to Serenity, “Serenity, I texted Zack earlier, telling him to come over and

    Serenity got in her car and sped off.Zachary watched her go before walking into the bookshop. He took a look at the materials that she had not put away yet. He could not make sense of it, so he turned away and went into the kitchen.He washed the wok and put a little water in it before placing the leftovers from lunch into the wok, then turned on the gas to heat it up.Out of boredom, he casually opened the fridge and saw that it was stuffed full of seafood.They were all given by Elisa Stone.Elisa Stone was pretty generous to Serenity, even dragging a carful of seafood back for her.Thinking of how Serenity taught Elisa how to pursue him and that being the reason Elisa gave her so much seafood… and that he’d eaten quite a bit at lunch…“Serenity? Serenity!”Shawn Lowe’s cries came from outside.Zachary immediately turned the fire down to its lowest and speedily ran into the bathroom, closing the door behind him.There was no other reason than for the fact Shawn Lowe had me

    Zachary only came out of the bathroom when he heard Shawn’s footsteps fade into the distance.He was thankful for two things right then and there. One for Nana calling him over, and two for himself resisting his pride and taking the out that Nana offered him. Otherwise, Shawn would have the chance to be alone with Serenity.Shawn walked out of the bookshop, got into his car, and drove away. However, just as he reached a junction, he stopped his car and called Serenity.Serenity quickly picked up his call.“What’s up, Shawn?”“Serenity, are you free later? Around 7:30 pm.”“Why?”Serenity did not say if she was free but instead straightforwardly asked him why.Shawn hesitated before saying, “I have to attend a business reception at Wiltspoon Hotel in a while. I need a female companion. You know me, I don’t have a girlfriend yet, so I wanted to ask for your help to accompany me to the reception.”“Get Jasmine to go with you. I’m not free. My husband’s still waiting in the booksh

    Serenity agreed empathetically, “You can offend anyone, but don't ever offend Nana. Luckily, she's my nana.”Out of all her in-laws, Grandma May was Serenity’s favorite because the old lady treated her the best. Whenever she had conflicts with Zachary, Grandma May would always stand by her side first. Only when she was ready to listen would Grandma May try to reason with her and speak up for Zachary. Even though Grandma May was Zachary’s grandmother, she treated Serenity like her own granddaughter; more so than Serenity's biological grandmother.“Are you going to help Dylan?” Jasmine asked.“How? He’s wooing his future wife. No one can help with that,” Serenity replied. “Zachary never meddles in his brothers' private matters. As long as they don’t ask him for help, he doesn’t care about anything.”In Zachary's words, he only wanted to take care of her. In his world, she was his priority.“True. Let’s just watch for now, unless Dylan comes to you asking you to speak well of him

    “Now he's suddenly trying to pursue Imogen again? Did something happen to him? Or was it that his beloved turned him down, and then when he saw everyone else all coupled up, plus Grandma May’s pressuring him to get married, he decided to try to win Imogen back?“Who does he think Imogen is? Does he think he can just have her when he wants to, and throw her aside when he doesn't?”Even though Dylan was Serenity's cousin-in-law, Jasmine could not bring herself to take his side. Back then, when Imogen followed him from Huntington to Wiltspoon and even asked Serenity for help, all she ended up getting was an apology from Dylan that he could never love her. He even mentioned that he was in love with someone else, a woman he called Fox. How could a vixen be any good? Was she better than Imogen?Jasmine thought Dylan was out of his mind, but that was someone else's business. She was just a bystander. Even Serenity did not interfere much since she was only a cousin-in-law. After all,

    Without a second thought, Leticia replied to her daughter.[Of course you should. As long as you can win that boy over, you'll be happy in the future. I’ve met so many young men, but I still think he’s the most suitable for you.]Despite her earlier anger, Leticia still hoped her daughter could win Dylan’s heart. She had always regarded him as a potential son-in-law, after all.Imogen smiled and left it at that. She had already made up her mind.In truth, when Dylan rejected her, she was not all that upset because the person he loved was still her. It was just that she had kept Dylan in the dark. One could say that he had been made to dance in her palm.However, when he realized that he could not love Imogen, he was honest with her and decisively left without bothering her further, not wanting her to fall even deeper when the situation was hopeless. In this aspect, she appreciated him.Now that she knew she was the one Dylan’s grandmother had chosen for him, Imogen was curious ab

    When Dylan overheard Imogen’s phone conversation with Leticia, he realized that Leticia was trying to match her with someone named Kade. Now, he had a rival.Even though he was being asked to leave, Dylan did not get angry, nor did he shamelessly insist on staying. He stood up and said, “I’m sorry for disturbing you, Ms. Doyle. I know you’re Imogen Doyle. I also know what I’m doing, and I won’t make the same mistake again.“Ms. Doyle, you were on the nose earlier. Yes, I do want to pursue you again. Starting today, I will try to win your heart once more. No matter what your attitude is toward me, I’ll accept it.”The first time, she had offered her heart, but he did not accept it. That was his fault.This time, it was his turn to offer his heart. If it took more time to win her over, he was willing to be patient.“My nana isn’t forcing me.” He continued, “When it came to our generation, she only pushed Zachary to marry Serenity.”Zachary had been a special case. For the rest of

    Imogen felt a surge of satisfaction when she saw Dylan was rendered speechless by what she said. She deliberately leaned closer to him, her beautiful face coming right up to his, and their gazes met.They were so close that Dylan could smell a faint, delicate fragrance on her. It was a little familiar, but it was not the same as Chameleon Fox’s scent, because she never used fragrance when she appeared—probably to avoid being recognized by scent.It was the scent he smelled on Imogen back when he was initially pursuing her—it was Sugar’s. Imogen smelled the same as Sugar, a scent he remembered when he was in close proximity to Sugar.Imogen was Sugar.Dylan was now sure of this, but he did not bring it up. Even if he asked, Imogen would not admit it anyway.Besides, he no longer needed her to confirm it. As Zachary had said, he only needed to trust his nana; she would not mislead him when it came to marriage. His nana knew very well that he loved Chameleon Fox, and yet still aske

    Unexpectedly, Kade had to return to the country due to a work transfer and would be staying in Huntington long-term.Leticia’s best friend Jade immediately called her again to bring up the idea of a marriage match. Leticia then thought about it and decided to arrange for her daughter to fetch him from the airport.“Mrs. Doyle, the person Imogen likes is me, so please stop trying to match her with someone else.” Dylan boldly interjected.Imogen glanced at him but did not say anything.On the other side of the line, Leticia asked Imogen when she heard Dylan’s voice, “Jen, has that York scoundrel gone to look for you again? He came by once a few days ago, but you weren’t home. We didn’t even let him past the gate.“He didn’t show up again after that, so we thought he left, but he actually went to your office to look for you. Jen, what does he mean by this? Is he trying to pursue you once more? If that’s really the case, all the more you have to give Kade a chance—to make Dylan York

    “Why are you looking at me like that, Mr. York?”Just as Dylan was about to respond, Imogen’s phone rang from her desk where she had left it. She looked at the caller ID and saw it was her mother calling, so she had no choice but to answer.“Hey, mom.” She was busy with work and usually would not answer personal calls during office hours unless it was from her family, which usually meant something urgent. If there was no urgency, her parents would not call her.“Are you free this weekend?” Leticia asked over the phone. “What’s going on?”“Tell me if you’re free first. I need you to do something for me.”Imogen replied, “Does it have to be me? If not, please ask someone else. I have a client meeting scheduled for the weekend.”“You're still meeting clients this weekend? Is Davidson Group really lacking business? Can’t you even rest on the weekend?” Leticia complained. Her daughter went out early and came home late every day. Sometimes, even though they lived under the same r

    The one who was hurt was her. The one who would suffer was also her. When it came to love, the one who fell first was the one who lost. She had lost once and did not want to lose again.Even though she still had feelings for Dylan, Imogen did not want to be in a passive position anymore. She wanted to be the one in control, making Dylan the one who was passive. “Ms. Doyle, I’m here today to apologize.”“Apologize? Apologize for what?”Dylan then took out the set of jewelry and placed it in front of Imogen. “Ms. Doyle, months ago, I pursued you first. When you were moved, I withdrew and said that I didn’t love you. That was my fault, and I’m here to apologize for that. This bouquet and this set of jewelry are my way of offering an apology.”Imogen put down the bouquet and took the red velvet box. She opened it right in front of Dylan. Inside was a set of ruby jewelry.With trained eyes to recognize valuable items, she could immediately tell that they were very expensive when

    Huntington was having another bout of snow.When Dylan arrived, he spent the first day at the hotel to rest. Afterward, he picked up the gifts that Sam had prepared for him, rented a luxury car, and drove to the Doyles’ residence with a car full of presents.However, Imogen and her older sister, along with several younger cousins, had gone on a trip. Dylan did not even get the chance to go past the Doyles’ gate and the gifts he brought were refused by Winston.Once Winston learned that the woman Dylan truly loved was actually his own daughter, he guessed that Dylan would soon return to pursue her again. To make sure Dylan left with nothing to show for it, he persuaded his daughter to go on a trip.Imogen also missed her master and her fellow disciples. So, she took her cousins and went to visit her master. All of them together enjoyed a lively reunion, and she completely forgot about Dylan.It was not until after Davidson Group resumed work after the holidays that Dylan would have
