After confirming that her nephew was fine, Serenity got her phone and took pictures of the roses and clothes. The pictures were sent to Zachary. Soon, Zachary gave her a call. “Honey, who sent you flowers?”Zachary’s tone was aggressive. Which bold b*stard dared to give his wife flowers? Did that person have a death wish? “Didn’t you see the clothes were suits? There are neckties too. They’re all yours. The bouquet is meant for you too.”Zachary said, “They’re for me?”His aggressive aura dissipated. The presents were for him.Which hateful person was playing a prank on him by sending him flowers and clothes? Was that person trying to cause a rift between him and Serenity on purpose?Zachary quickly explained, “Honey, I’ve never led someone on or done anything to betray you. Does the card mention who the sender is? I have a score to settle with that person.”“There’s no signature. I don’t know who sent the items.”Serenity guessed it was Ms. Daniels. Zachary told her l
It must be Jenna! Zachary did not look too pleased. While Jenna did not come along, she would not quit. Jenna had flowers and clothes delivered to his residence. Mr. Daniels had invited Zachary for a meal today and talked about collaboration, so Jenna would have known. She deliberately timed the delivery for when he was out. It was so Serenity would get the wrong idea and kick up a fuss with him. That woman was vile. “I had a good talk with Mr. Daniels and sealed the deal on the partnership, but now that I think about it, I want to give up on the project, Seren.” Jenna was the only daughter of Mr. Daniels. It was said that Mr. Daniels took a while to regulate his health so that he could have a child. Mr. Daniels and his wife simply adored their only daughter. Although Mr. Daniels was sensible enough not to bring Jenna along today, nor was he supporting Jenna’s courtship of Zachary, Zachary did not want to take the risk. Even the most sensible parents, who doted on their
Worried that Serenity might be angry, Zachary cautiously asked, “So you’re not mad, honey? You’re not pretending, right? I swear to God that I won’t fall for any other woman other than you. I won’t give any woman the wrong idea either. “My heart isn’t big enough for another person. My heart belongs to you.” “I’m not mad, babe. Honestly, I’m not angry at all. You’re such a brilliant. It would be weird if no one likes you. Besides, it only proves that I’m lucky when you’re popular. I must have saved the world in another life to be able to be your wife in this life.” Serenity was not offended. She had braced herself for the appearance of love rivals since she married an outstanding husband. Not every woman would be sensible to love and let go like her cousin, Elisa. It took Serenity’s repeated assurance that she was not angry before Zachary felt at ease. After the phone call, Zachary immediately gave Josh a call to look into the matter. Josh whined, “Zachary, can’t you let
Mr. Daniels knew that Jenna was too proud to take a fancy to just any guy. Plus, Zachary was a married man. Hence, Mr. Daniels did not think much about bringing his daughter along to meet with Zachary. Zachary was not keen on clients being accompanied by young women during any business talk. Since Zachary was married now, Mr. Daniels thought the man might have eased up a little. But… Mr. Daniels sighed. Kevin had no idea about Jenna’s crush on Zachary. He smiled and said, “All the men in my family are the same. You can say that it runs in the family. That’s it for us once we find true love. It takes fabulous luck to find true love in a big world. We must have done a lot of good in another life to find the woman of our dreams. That’s why we cherish them.“Zack loves his wife. They have come a long way to be where they are today. Their relationship is stronger now. They value each other and set a good example for those of us who are younger than Zack.” Kevin had no expectations
The child Zachary was carrying must be Serenity’s nephew. It was apparent that Zachary was fond of the little man. He loved his wife and her family too. A lot went through Mr. Daniels’s mind as Zachary brought Serenity into the room. “Seren, this is Mr. Daniels. Mr. Daniels, this is my wife, Serenity.” Zachary led Serenity to the table and introduced Serenity and Mr. Daniels to each other. Snapping out of his thoughts, Mr. Daniels rose to his feet and shook Serenity’s hand with a smile. He then glanced at the bodyguards who were carrying flowers and shopping bags. At a closer distance, Mr. Daniels got a good look at the brand on the shopping bags. The brand did men’s wear. Mr. Daniels thought to himself that Mrs. York must have purchased clothes for Mr. York. Mr. York was simply showing off the stuff his wife bought him. “Serenity.” It was Kevin’s turn to greet Serenity after her handshake with Mr. Daniels. He got up and put his hand out to take Sonny from Zachary
Cutting Zachary off, Mr. Daniels solemnly uttered, “We have agreed on the project, and I’m happy to work with your company. I am a man of my word. I won’t change my mind about the partnership, and I hope you will do the same. “I take what Jenna has done seriously, and I will deal with her when I get back. I promise Jenna will not show herself in your presence during our ongoing partnership. I will keep an eye on her and try to stop her from disturbing and harassing you, Mr. York.” Mr. Daniels could not guarantee that he could stop his daughter, but he would discourage her whenever possible. He had raised his daughter with love and care. Mr. Daniels and his wife were proud of their outstanding daughter. He did not want his daughter to blow the rest of her life because of her feelings for a married man. Zachary sullenly said, “I trust you, Mr. Daniels. I will leave someone else to follow up on the project. I hope you mean what you said and stop Ms. Daniels from harassing me. Ms.
Serenity withdrew her arm from her husband’s grasp. Zachary was not pleased. She whispered, “Kevin and Sonny are here.” Zachary looked at Kevin and his nephew. Kevin scooped a spoonful of food for Sonny. The little man had a problem with using his utensils and was oblivious to the matter between the adults. “Sonny, are you able to get it? How about I feed you?” Acting as if nothing had happened, Kevin asked the little man without looking at Serenity and Zachary who were across the room. Kevin knew that he was a third wheel in the room. Zachary could moan that he was a third wheel, but Kevin could do the same and call Zachary out for his constant public display of affection. “I can do it, Uncle Kevin.” Sonny turned down Kevin’s offer to feed him. Serenity picked a cupcake for Sonny and put it on his plate. “Have a cupcake, Sonny.” “Thank you, Aunt Ser.” Serenity smiled and said, “Get Uncle Kevin to get any food you want.” She then turned to the man beside her
Mr. Daniels gave his daughter a dry towel and left those words before turning on his heel to leave. Jenna took the towel and watched her father leave, knowing that something was up. Maybe Zachary canceled the partnership proposal because of the little tickle on his palm? The Daniels Group’s proposal offered significant profits to both companies. It was a win-win project, and a lot of companies had extended their interest in participating. Zachary was a businessman. Surely, he would not turn his back on a big payoff. Jenna climbed out of the swimming pool and entered the changing room for a change of clothes before taking off.She stepped into the living room and saw her father sitting on the sofa. His face was flushed with brewing anger. There was a bouquet and a few shopping bags in front of her father. “Dad, who gave you those? Did you buy them for me?” Jenna said while approaching, “I’m going to tell Mom if they are gifts for you.” She followed her father around wi
