Chapter 652

Looking rather curious, Alice asked Serenity.

Serenity turned around before replying, “It’s a good thing my sister didn’t tag along, but all’s good now since my sister divorced Hank. I knew I was the reason for the fights between Hank and my sister. That was why I married in such a hurry.”

She explained to Alice the hasty marriage.

Alice nodded her head. “I see. You saved your husband’s nana, and his nana really likes you. She paired you two together probably to repay your kindness too.”

She had rarely seen the Old Mrs. York, but her man had mentioned that the old lady was friendly and did not put on airs.

Old Mrs. York had a thing for going around keeping her identity hidden like a woman–child.

There was one thing Alice could not wrap her head around.

It was questionable for a bad*ss person like Old Mrs. York needed rescuing.

Was Serenity sure that the old lady did not have her eye on Serenity from the very beginning and tried to scam her to be Zachary’s wife?

“Is your husband working at York Corporation?”

“Yeah.”

“Is your husband’s last name also York?”

Tilting her head, Serenity glanced at Alice and answered with a smile, “Alice, do you think my husband is the wealthy heir of the York family?

“My husband is only an ordinary salaryman, but he’s a brilliant man to hold a managerial position in the company. Honestly, there are too many managerial positions at York Corporation. My husband said that he rarely got to see the great Mr. York in person.

“Work has been good mainly because… Well, he sort of got a free pass at work.”

It was all thanks to his connections to Josh.

Zachary and Josh would be speechless to find out about this.

The actual person with the free pass was in question.

“York is not a common surname, and your husband happens to work at York Corporation too. It really gets people thinking.”

Alice followed with another question, “What’s your husband’s name?”

“Zachary.”

“Zachary York?”

“Yeah. Does the heir share the same name too?”

Serenity added with a smile. “My husband’s last name is York, but I doubt he has the same name as ‘the’ Mr. York.”

Alice replied with a grin, “That’s true. I was just checking.”

However, a storm was brewing inside her.

Jesus Christ.

Serenity’s husband was indeed “the” Zachary York!

There were many people with the same surname under the sun.

Of course, the same went with people of the same name and surname.

Nevertheless, there was only one person named Zachary York in the whole of York Corporation, and that was the heir of the York family.

Alice could not believe that her man’s suspicion was true.

If they were the same person, it would explain Zachary’s abrupt invitation to Clive for a meal the other day Zachary must have known early on that Serenity was Mrs. Stone’s niece and Clive’s cousin. He was trying to get on Clive’s good side.

“Truth be told, you’re not the only one to suspect my husband’s link to the wealthiest York. It can’t be a coincidence. A man of status and power like Mr. York wouldn’t need to marry in such a rush. Would he need to marry someone like me?

“Jasmine always talks about the female lead having a blind marriage to a rich heir and that I must have married a rich husband too. How can fiction be taken seriously? How many rich heirs are there anyway to be married randomly to one?”

Alice replied with a smile, “That’s right. Fiction can’t be taken seriously, but stories come from life itself.

Sometimes, life can be more cliché than stories.“
