Chapter 378
Married at First Sight
Chapter 378 Unfortunately, the handful of close friends he had were just as inexperienced as he was.
He could not ask Nana for a few tricks in private either. She would laugh at him.
He thought of how he stubbornly said to Nana that he would not chase after his wife. Now, he was feeling his cheeks burn in embarrassment.
However, he did not actually have to chase after his wife. Serenity was already his wife!
âThank you for your concern, Mr. York. Iâll be mindful.â
Serenityâs dexterous hands were nimbly crafting a car. âMr. York, you take Mrs. Lane home first. Also, donât forget to take Snowball and the others with you.â
Zacharyâs expression tightened. âI wonât take the three furballs.â
âThen let Mrs. Lane take them. The storeâs not busy now, so you two canât help me much here anyway.
Why not go home and let Mrs. Lane clean up her room?â âYouâre chasing me away!â Serenity glanced up at him and then looked down again to continue working. She said in amusement, âMr. York, I realized that youâre quite a sensitive person. Iâm telling the truth, not chasing you away. Tell me. What can you do to help me by staying here?â
Zachary tensed his face and did not speak.
He did not know how to weave crafts.
If he helped her to sell books, she would say that his face was too stern and would scare the students away.
Zachary had to admit that he really could not help her here. âWhy did Nana find me such a capable wise? I donât even have the chance to show off!!
Zachary grumbled about his nana in his heart.
If Old Mrs. York was here, she would say, âSerenity and you signed a sixâmonth agreement and will divorce once the time is up anyway.â
Zachary fell silent Was she really his nana?
Mrs. Lane quickly said, âMs. Hunt, I only brought a few sets of clothes over. Thereâs nothing I need to unpack, so thereâs no rush to go back.â
Since the two were unwilling to leave, Serenity did not say more.
Mrs. Lane hid behind a bookshelf in the corner and read a book so as not to be the third wheel.
However, her ears were perked up as she listened carefully to the conversation between the young couple. If something went wrong, she could step in to save the day. Zachary was arrogant, clumsy in speech, and had no skills in appealing to a girl. Even if he realized that he cared for Serenity, he would not be able to express it to her with sweet words.
Mrs. Lane felt it would be more practical to pray for pigs to sprout wings and start flying, rather than counting on Zachary to sweet talk into making Serenity happy.
Zachary silently watched Serenity work.
Serenity suddenly asked him, âMr. York, your big boss is the heir of the York family. Is he married?â
Zacharyâs dark eyes flickered. He did not immediately answer and waited for her to continue.
âEveryone in Wiltspoon knows that Elisa likes your boss, and Iâve given her a few tips on how to pursue him. Unexpectedly, she came over this morning and said that she saw Mr. York wore a wedding band on the ring finger of his left hand.
âSince heâs your companyâs CEO, do you have any insider information? Did Mr. York really get married?â
Zachary looked at his bare fingers. He only wore the ring when he was faced with Elisa.
âWe donât have a definite answer to that either, but I was fortunate enough to be able to attend the meeting today. Although I sat at the very end of the table and was far from the boss, I have excellent eyesight, so I did see him wear a ring on his left finger.â
Serenity lookedâ p at him, met his dark eyes, and asked nosily,â Do you know who his wife is?â
Zachary shook his head. âNo. Although Iâm one of the executives of the company, Iâm not one of his trusted aides, so Iâm not privy to matters like that.â
After a pause, he added, âSomeone asked Mr. Bucham about it upon hearing the news. Mr. Bucham is my bossâs closest friend.
âHowever, Mr. Bucham didnât say who the bossâs wife was either. He only said that the boss was indeed married and spoiled his wife very much.â
In the corner, Mrs. Lane wanted to burst out laughing.
âMr. Zachary, you sure know how to paint yourself in a good light.
âItâs as clear as day that youâre lying to your wife, but youâre saying that you spoil her...â
