chapter 253
Hank was tired of Liberty. It was possible he had intentionally made her gain weight to justify his disgust and pursue an affair.
“Make sure Hank Brown doesn’t find out about this,” someone warned.
“Relax! I’m in charge of this. Do you really not trust me to handle it well? Unless my men want him to know, we could trace his family tree back eighteen generations and he’d still be in the dark,” Josh assured.
“Zachary, this is a solid plan. When you present the evidence of Hank Brown’s affair to your wife, she will appreciate it, and then you two can finally reconcile and return to how you used to be,” he suggested.
Zachary’s mouth twitched. “Return to how we used to be? When we first met, I could barely remember her name.”
Josh was left speechless. Clearly, that was not the right thing to say.
After asking Josh to investigate Hank Brown, Zachary handed over the stack of documents he had been working on and said flatly, “You can clock out now.”
“I want to, but I have a business engagement tonight,” Josh replied.
Zachary fell silent, remembering he too had a business engagement to attend. Typically, his business discussions occurred in the office or his presidential suite at Wiltspoon Hotel.
Fine. He didn’t have to go to the hotel to drink tonight; he could indulge at the business engagement instead.
Meanwhile, Serenity shared some seafood that Elisa had given her with her sister to take home. She also offered some to Jasmine. Although Jasmine’s family had plenty of good food and ate seafood daily, she gladly accepted it because it was a gift from her good friend.
Just then, Callum York…
When Serenity arrived to pick up Grandma May, she struggled to carry a large bag of seafood. Noticing her difficulty, he quickly exited the car and rushed to help her. “Serenity, this bag is really heavy. You should have asked us for help,” he said. He didn’t want his sister-in-law to tire herself out.
“Exactly! I told you that you didn’t have to. Let Callum handle it; men like him are stronger,” Grandma May chimed in.
She thought to herself, ‘Look at Callum; he knows how to be considerate. It’s just that iceberg Zack who doesn’t understand.’
‘Sigh… How concerning,’ she reflected.
Although Grandma May recognized her worries, not a trace of it showed on her face. Her eldest grandson had given her front-row seats to an amusing spectacle, and she was thoroughly enjoying it. She wasn’t truly worried; that feeling simply didn’t exist.
