Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 1825

“Let me talk to Julian now.”

Knowing that Zachary was busy, Andrew stood up and planned to take his leave after pouring out his problems.

“Why are you so desperate? Julian might not be at home. You should ask Josh before heading to the Buchams’ place so you won’t go there for nothing.”

At the thought of how mysterious Julian was, Andrew hummed in acknowledgment.

He said, “I have no choice but to be desperate because I’m extremely worried that Mrs. Stone will matchmake me with Elisa. She can scheme against someone without a trace. Only after getting into her trap will one come to their senses. By then, it’ll be difficult to get out of the trap.”

Zachary laughed. “If Aunt Audrey plots against you, it means you’re outstanding. Everyone in Wiltspoon knows that she loves Elisa very much. She’s only interested in outstanding men.”

“Zack, are you praising me or gloating at my misfortune?”

“Both.”

Andrew’s face darkened before he said, “Let me ask Josh. Because of Mrs. Stone’s doing, I haven’t been able to focus on my work lately. I’ll have Clive make it up to me. I have a project recently, and I plan to get Clive to take over it so I can earn some money from him.”

“Do count me in if you have any great projects. I promise I’ll invest heavily in them and work with you. It’s a win-win situation for us.”

“Of course.”

Andrew grinned and headed outside.

Zachary leaped to his feet not to walk Andrew out. Instead, he paced around his office. In the end, he walked to the window and gazed at the blue sky and white clouds. He took out his phone to call Serenity.

Serenity replied, “I wonder which b*stard schemed against me!”

It had been a long time since she last told someone off. If she found out who was behind it, she promised to beat that person up and give him a taste of his own medicine.

Zachary’s smile disappeared, then he said, “I told Josh to investigate the matter, and he found out the truth soon. It was an old pervert who wanted to conspire against his subordinate. He asked the server to serve the drink to the subordinate. It turned out that you got the two glasses of wine instead. Just so happened that the wine I drank was fine, whereas yours was spiked.”

Serenity asked, “Did you punch that old pervert?”

Even if she was unfortunate enough to drink the wine that was drugged, the old pervert deserved a punch for trying to scheme against someone.

“Babe, as a gentleman, I resolve disputes through communication. There’s no need to get into a fight. I warned the old pervert and frightened him. His subordinate learned the truth and slapped him on the spot. He quit his job and lost his reputation.”
