Chapter 572

Putting down his pen, Josh got up and drew near the window to look down. He looked at the paparazzi standing firmly outside the company entrance and murmured, “They sure have the patience to stay from last night until now. Seriously, Zachary. All it takes is for Zachary to show off his relationship and boom, the community’s rocked to the core.”

Well, it only shook the community. All was calm with the missus.

Zachary shielded the missus well.

Everybody in the office had seen Serenity, but no one had the guts to blab it out.

The York family kept mum, refusing to let a word out despite the reporters‘ incessant inquiries.

“Do you know who Mr. York’s wife is?” was the first thing that popped out of everyone in the upper crust’s mouth today.

Business clients would join in on the gossip after closing deals, snooping on the identity of Mr. York’s bride.

Josh was annoyed.

Since he was best buddies with Zachary, many tried to pry information from him.

Josh knew the most but could say nothing about it.

After dropping the bombshell, Zachary nonchalantly occupied himself with work as it was business as usual for him.

Escorted by his team of security, Zachary went to have a meal at Wiltspoon Hotel after work. As always, he called Mr. Zen to deliver a few of Serenity’s favorites to her.

Zachary also asked Mr. Zen to buy a bouquet of flowers at the florist to be delivered together with the food.

The only thing that caught Zachary by surprise was running into Clive at the hotel entrance.

The Stones have their own hotels. Plus, Clive and Zachary were business competitors. Hence why Clive would never really show his face at Wiltspoon Hotel.

Yet today Clive was here with clients. His clients must have asked for the business meeting to be held at Wiltspoon Hotel.

With two major CEOs crossing paths at the hotel, both stopped in their tracks.

Behind Zachary was his security detail while Clive had a few of his important executives and secretaries. at his tail.

Both carried an imposing presence.

The people following behind these CEOs stopped walking when the big shots came face–to–face.

Clive’s eyes immediately ran along Zachary’s left hand. There was a ring on his ring finger. However, it was not the gold ring that Zachary posted on Facebook.

Catching on to Clive’s gaze, Zachary openly raised his left hand and put his hand out so Clive could get a closer look.

“I heard you posted on social media, flaunting your relationship, Mr. York,” Clive said.

“You’re quite well informed, Mr. Stone.”

“It’s hard not to when it’s highly publicized. Did you change into another ring, Mr. York?”

Lowering his gaze, Zachary stared at his wedding ring and graciously told Clive, “My wife felt the gold ring wasn’t very pretty, so I replaced it with the Eternal diamond ring.”

Clive grinned. “Your wife has good tastes.”

The Eternal diamond ring on Zachary’s finger cost a bomb.

It appeared Mr. York’s wife appreciated fine rocks. She must be from a well–off family, but the question was which family.

Clive was dying with curiosity.

He grumbled about his rival in his mind.
