Chapter 575

“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’W drive you to the airport

“I’ll get up early tomorrow to pack for you ”

Serenity believed she was rather considerate to pack his things and see him off at the airport for his

business trip.

“I’m taking the 10:35 AM flight. No need to drive me to the airport. I need to head to the office to pick up

some paperwork before leaving with a colleague. The company arranged for an airport transfer ”

“Oh.” That would save her the trouble

“Send me a text message when you get the DNA test results. I’ll be busy during the trip, so I’ll only

have time late at night to read the messages. I won’t miss your messages.

“Okay. I’ll text you when I get the results”

Zachary specifically mentioned his busy work schedule during the trip in case Serenity would call him

while Elisa was around during the day.

“That reminds me, should we give Jasmine and Mr. Bucham a nudge? Jasmine said Mr. Bucham was

out of her league when she found out about his position in the company.”

Zachary replied, “That’s between them. Let them decide how they want to progress with this

relationship. We can only set up the initial date and not anything else.”

Serenity smiled. “You got a point. We’ll see where the relationship takes them, but I think they look

good together. I’m rooting for things to work between them.”

Jasmine was not that into Josh.

Josh was probably swamped with work to make the first move.

He did give Jasmine a call and urged her to drink more water when she was sick.

“I have another candidate to introduce to Ms. Sox if there’s no chemistry between her and Mr.

Bucham.”

Serenity asked with concern, “Is the person better than Mr. Bucham?”

“You can say that, but Mr. Bucham fares better at a fistfight than him. The person isn’t great at self-

defense, so he goes around with a team of security. He’s an important client of my company. The only

thing is that his home is a little far and not in Wiltspoon.”

The person Zachary had in mind was Remy.

He was the younger brother of Ben Young-Johnson, CEO of FC & Co., in Annenburg.

Remy was in charge of the Wiltspoon branch of FC & Co. As Zachary had engaged in business with

Remy many times and got to know him, he believed Remy was a dependable man.

“Jasmine won’t consider him if he’s not from Wiltspoon. The important client must be a rich boy since

you said he travels with a security team. Jasmine doesn’t want to marry into a wealthy and influential

family.”

Zachary smiled. “He’s rich for sure. We can forget about it if Ms. Sox won’t consider the rich and

powerful. As a matter of fact, others see Ms. Sox as an heiress since her family owns a lot of assets.

The Soxes have wealth that many will never see despite working their whole lives.”

The locals who struck it rich from the property boom did not see themselves as wealthy. They would

continue living like ordinary people, riding their bicycles or e-bikes to work and taking on menial jobs

like cleaning and patrolling premises.

They did not like to dress up and often went out in their loafers.
