Dizzy from the shaking, Jasmine pried Elisa’s fingers from her shoulders and said, “Elisa, Mr. Bucham and I only went on one blind date, and that was it. He won’t tell me if I ask him.” “I can’t believe you went on a date with Josh Bucham!” Elisa exclaimed in amazement. “Josh is the most eligible bachelor in Wiltspoon, and I’m talking about among the elites.” Elisa had no doubt about the authenticity of Jasmine’s date with Josh because Jasmine was the daughter of a local wealthy man. Jasmine’s aunt was also the missus of the Lowe family. Jasmine often attended higher society events with her aunt. However, Mrs. Lowe stopped bringing Jasmine around to parties after Jasmine’s lying stunt at Mrs. Dawson’s birthday celebration. “Serenity’s husband set up the date.” Serenity smiled and admitted openly, “My husband does seem to be in Mr. Bucham’s good books. Seeing that Mr. Bucham was always busy at work and single, he boldly set him up with Jasmine. He thought Jasmine would make

“I wonder who the lucky lady is.” Although Clive knew his question would come to naught, he still had to ask. His sister wanted to know who defeated her. Zachary’s eyes were fixated on Clive for a while before he answered, “Mr. Stone, I’d ask for privacy, so I’m not going to answer that question.” Clive had foreseen getting nothing from Zachary. Accepting the result, Clive graciously smiled. “You have your wife well protected, Mr. York.”“I promised to love, protect, and cherish her forever when I married her.” Clive replied with a little surprise, “You’re an affectionate man, Mr. York.” His sister and Zachary were not meant to be. Clive had talked his sister into letting Zachary go, but his sister refused to listen. Now, she was devastated. He sighed in his mind. Clive would support his sister to be with Zachary and ease the tension between the rivaling York Corporation and Stone Group if Zachary had fallen in love with Elisa. This was because Zachary only had ey

“Seren, are Mrs. Stone’s and your DNA test results nearly out?” Zachary decisively changed the subject to end the gossip about himself. He was only flaunting his relationship to announce his marriage on Facebook. It never crossed his mind that it would bring about a stir that occupied his wife’s day with gossip. “Elisa said they’ll collect the results tomorrow.” “Oh.” Zachary quickly added, “You’ll meet them again if the results show you’re related to Mrs. Stone. I might not be able to go with you to the Stones’ house. I’m going away on business tomorrow.” Serenity picked her head up to meet his eyes. “I thought you didn’t have to do business trips.” Zachary stared at her in silence. He knew it; she looked forward to him leaving soon. Zachary was scared that she would forget who he was when he returned from his trip. “Have you booked the flight yet? What time is the flight? I’ll drive you to the airport. “I’ll get up early tomorrow to pack for you.” Serenity belie

“My memory isn’t that poor. It’s not like we just only got our marriage license.”Serenity yawned and added, “Go to sleep, Zachary. You have to travel tomorrow. Rest well so you’ll feel energized.”She then leaned over and kissed him gently on the lips.“Good night, Honey.”Zachary’s gaze became intense all of a sudden. He wrapped his arms around her waist, not letting her leave after that peck on the lips she gave him.His dark eyes burned and locked on her pretty face.She was usually barefaced without makeup, but she took great care of her skin, so her face was still looking radiant and smooth, making it pleasant to the touch.She was a natural beauty through and through.Zacahry was already attracted to her the first time they met.However, he had come across plenty of beauties before, so he did not feel anything for Serenity at first sight.“Seren, what did you just call me?”She did not react the first time he called her Honey.It was a little depressing when he thoug

Serenity laughed and said, “Chelsea, you should go to the bathroom and wash your face at the sink. Oh, wait, there’s no faucet anymore. My sister paid for all the water pipes, so we sawed them all off. I guess you’ll just have to take a piss and see your reflection in it. Look at how big your face is.“My sister and your brother are divorced. They have nothing to do with each other whatsoever. How do you get off telling my sister to find a house for you to stay? Was it my sister’s fault that you don’t have a house to live in now? You were the ones who brought this upon yourselves.“If you guys had gone along and compensated my sister for her loss, you would have a place to stay now. Alas, it’s really cold today. I wonder if you’ll be able to sleep in a house full of holes.“But you have thick skin and flesh. If all of you huddle together, you’ll be able to withstand the bitter cold wind.“If there’s nothing else, I’m hanging up now. It’s very warm under the covers, so I’m going to
