Chapter 821
Married at First Sight
âLet me calm down, Zachary. Iâll call you back when I think of a solution, but your mustnât do anything to
hurt Serenity again. Otherwise, you really wonât be able to get her back.â
Josh was so angry with Zachary that he wanted to hurry up and hang up the phone. so he could calm
down. He did not want to burst out in expletives in front of Jasmine since he was trying to maintain his
good image as Mr. Bucham.
After what happened to Zachary, Josh decided to be one hundred percent sincere when treating
Jasmine. He would not lie or deceive her as Zachary did to Serenity.
He ended the call before Zachary could respond.
âWhy did you hang up? I still wanted to persuade him. Judging by what he said, heâll only make
Serenity angrier. She might even start to hate him.â
Josh said, âDidnât you hear what he said? Even Iâm speechless and getting angry too. I need to take a
step back. How did I get a boss with a negative EQ like him?
âUgh, why is my life so hard?!â Josh sighed.
He never once complained no matter what problems Zachary asked him to solve.
However, when Zachary sought help for his relationship problems, Josh got a headache.
The main problem was that Zacharyâs domineering attitude that he had had since birth was acting up
again, and at full blast.
âI have a feeling that they wonât make up for at least a few months.â
Jasmine thought the same and said, âThe Serenity I know will bring up divorce, but I can guarantee that
she wonât run away from this problem. Sheâll definitely talk to him about the divorce.â
Maybe she was even writing the divorce agreement at this moment.
Hearing Jasmineâs words, Josh hurriedly said, âJasmine, you have to persuade Serenity not to divorce
Zachary, or many people will die, and the first to bear the brunt is me. Iâm courting you now, so you
wonât want me to die, right? If I die now, other people might say that youâre a jinx who kills men who try
to pursue you.â
Jasmine slapped his arm and scolded him. âYouâre the jinx! Iâve always been lucky in my life. My mom
had my fortune read and said that I would be rich and prosperous in the future. Iâll have burlap sacks
full of money and a fortune of over a hundred million.â
Josh grinned. âThat fortuneâteller is accurate. Youâll be rich and prosperous if you marry me. If you like
keeping money in burlap sacks, Iâll buy two dozen sacks for you and take out all my savings so you can
keep them in the sacks. You wonât just have a hundred million. Youâll have several billion.â
Jasmine slapped him again. âIn your dreams. Why are you thinking about marriage when I havenât
even agreed to be your girlfriend? After what happened to Serenity now, I need to examine you
properly. If youâre also full of lies like Mr. York, we can just stay friends.â
She wanted to say that they would not even be friends, but considering how he knew a lot of gossip
which could satisfy her curiosity, she decided to remain friends with him.
âNo, absolutely not. Iâm much more sincere than Zachary. Besides, our situations are different. We
know who each other are, but Zachary was nagged by his grandmother and forced to marry Serenity.
âItâs actually very normal for him to conceal his identity. I think many people will understand his actions.â
Jasmine said, âItâs normal to conceal his identity in the beginning, and itâs also understandable, but he
chose to hide it when he fell in love with Serenity later on. Thatâs whatâs making her angry.â
âHeâs just afraid of losing her.â
âSo why did he dare reveal it now? Is he not afraid of losing her anymore? Is he emboldened now
because he thought Seren and him are a real couple?â
Josh paused before saying, âZachary was conflicted too. He went to Annenburg last year to attend the
wedding of FC & Co.âs boss, and he also asked for advice from Remy. Upon his return, he started
making arrangements to come clean.â
