“I’ll leave you to your work then.” Grandma May did not take up too much of her grandson’s time.After the phone call, Zachary put his phone on the desk and leaned back against his black swivel chair while resting his right elbow against the arm of the chair for his hand to brush his chin. His chin felt prickly. It was time to shave. Elisa and his wife were getting on well. Should he figure out a way to wreck their relationship? The girls would become best friends at this rate. Elisa was bound to find out that Serenity was her love rival when Zachary spilled the beans to Serenity about his identity. Rage would drive Elisa to take it out on Serenity since the former would not be able to let it go. With Zachary around, he would not allow Elisa to harm Serenity. Zachary contemplated for a while before giving up on that thought. He was not someone who could not protect his wife. Why should he be scared of Elisa? The girls should bond as they liked. It would only do Serenit

“This is your company?” Liberty had no doubts that this was Duncan’s company after pulling herself out of the shock. The company’s name was Lewis & Co. after all. Zachary mentioned that Mr. Lewis was an important client of his company. It never crossed Liberty’s mind that Duncan was the CEO of Lewis & Co. Liberty was still in the working scene when Lewis & Co. was on the rise, so she knew what the company was made of. However, she had never connected the dots between Duncan and the CEO of Lewis & Co. “Mr. Lewis, I don’t want to make a scene. I came for the interview, but your interviewer said the way I carry myself doesn’t befit the company’s image. I asked for the reason, and she told me I'm overweight and proceeded to shame me. I was furious and put her down for that. She then called me a fat cow and told me to get lost. “Lewis & Co. is one of the biggest companies here in Wiltspoon. I always thought the employees of your company would have class. I’m surprised to find othe

Once Duncan and Liberty were gone, everybody around started to speculate how their CEO might have met Liberty. It appeared their CEO was watching out for Liberty. “Could she be the CEO’s relative?” “No, I don’t think so. Didn’t you hear the woman addressing the CEO as Mr. Lewis? They must've met before, but I guess they’re not very close.” “Do you think our CEO has a crush on her? He’s thirty-five this year, but he doesn’t have a girlfriend.”Duncan was a young and promising CEO, but the scar on his face together with his towering and muscular build and penetrating eyes gave the impression that he was with the mafia. That was the reason he did not have a girlfriend despite being in his mid-thirties. Everybody turned their attention to the person who pointed that out. Ms. Chaplin smacked the back of the person’s head and replied, “What’s in that head of yours? I can’t believe you’d think that. As a woman, I’m disgusted by her looks. I’m sure you men feel the same.“All Mr.

“You’re here too, Zachary.” Seeing that her brother-in-law was around, Liberty smiled at Zachary before picking up her son. Liberty smooched her son’s cheeks a few times until the little man was tickled pink. “Liberty,” Zachary greeted his sister-in-law.“Huh? Where did these cats and a dog come from? They’re so cute!” Liberty noticed the new members in the shop after kissing her son. “Zachary gave them to me. Liberty, did you find a job?” It had been quite some time since Serenity saw Liberty so elated as she did when she came in. Liberty first praised the pets Zachary bought before answering her sister, “I got a job. It was unexpected. I didn’t think I’d bump into someone I know. Seren, do you know where I’ll be working?“It’s Lewis & Co.” Serenity did not pay much attention to the major corporations in town. She only recognized York Corporation, the most well-known company in the city because her best friend would not stop talking about the heir. She became more famili

With Zachary putting it out there, Liberty did not argue and helped her son put on the disposable gloves. After lunch, Zachary helped his wife to clear the dirty dishes and brought them to the kitchen to wash. Liberty could not stop singing praises of her brother-in-law in her sister’s presence. Liberty urged Serenity to be nice to Zachary. She was utterly afraid that her failed marriage would discourage her sister from believing marriages could work. Hank was a cheating b*stard, but that did not mean all men were the same. Good husbands still existed in the world. Liberty was not lucky enough to meet the right guy. Serenity replied helplessly, “Got it, Liberty. You don’t have to constantly put in the good word for him. I’m going to help him with the dishes.” She then slipped into the kitchen before her sister could start nagging about Zachary’s greatness again. Liberty told her to treat Zachary right as if she had been bullying and torturing him. Jasmine secretly l
