Chapter 796
Married at First Sight
Zachary replied with a question, âIs it weird? The boys in my family can cook. One of my brothers can cook better than the chef at Wiltspoon Hotel.â
The female reporters enviously lamented, âYour wife is so lucky.â think Iâm luckier. My Seren is good to me. Sheâs a fabulous cook. She always makes my favorite food.â
Jealousy would kill everybody before they could ask further questions.
The young couple was not in the same room right now, but the way Mr. York talked and the expression on his face explained how happy he was with his married life.
The media wrapped up the interview after asking a few more details about his life.
âThat reminds me. Donât go hounding my wife. You can come to me with any questions. Iâll make time to take the interview. My wife prefers to live a quiet and mundane life.
The people gave their word, âWe wonât intrude on the missus without your permission.â
The most they would do was snap photos of her in secret.
They would not dare to mob Serenity.
Zachary summoned his security detail to lead the reporters out.
Once the reporters were gone, Zachary gave his best friend a call.
Josh took the call and said, âDo you think itâs still the holidays? Get back to work! I canât believe you have not come back to work. Is the company yours or mine?â
Josh had not had time to sit down since returning to work.
He used to get it easy when Zachary was around in the past, but now, he had to call the shots in Zacharyâs absence. It was not a task Josh was going to take lying down.
It was the Yorksâ company, but Josh was the one working his butt off instead.
Since today was Valentineâs Day, Josh wanted to get off work early to buy flowers for Jasmine and ask her out for dinner.He had called the florist to reserve a bouquet.
âJosh, Iâve accepted the press interview.â
âWhat interview?â
Zachary did not tell Josh. Plus, to get himself a wife, Josh promised Jasmine to be an ordinary citizen and not to use the Buchamsâ network to pry into other peopleâs personal lives.
It never crossed Joshâs mind that he would know nothing about Zacharyâs interview. There was nothing on the itinerary Mr. Chaplin prepared for Zachary.
Did Zachary take it upon himself to accept the interview?
âItâs an interview about my marriage.â
Dumbstruck, Josh quickly ensued with a smile. âSo youâre planning to come clean, are you?â
âI can only keep secrets for so long. Itâs better for it to come from me than from someone else. Seren and I are at a sweet spot in our marriage right now, and today is Valentineâs Day. I thought I should tell her who I am on this special day. She might not be⦠that angry.â
It was a suggestion from Ben.
There was no telling whether it was a useful suggestion.
Well, he could get even with Ben if it did not work.
Poor Ben. All he did was suggest an idea. The consequence was supposed to be Zacharyâs to bear.
Now that everything was out there, Zachary braced himself for the hissy fit his wife was about to throw.
Josh commented, âIâm dumping the work on Callum, so I can deliver flowers to Jasmine.â
It was not something Josh wanted to miss!
