Chapter 798
Married at First Sight
It would take a couple of days before their order could be processed.
Serenity and Jasmine needed to get all the study materials the students needed for the new school term before the school reopened.
They should at least know the materials needed in advance so they could place the order.
Putting the mop back into the closet, Jasmine uttered, âI found out last night what we needed and made a list. The list is in my bag. You can check it and phone the supplier to make the delivery in the next few days.â
Students would purchase the school materials assigned by the teachers or that were recommended in the first few days of school. It would be the busiest time in the shop.
Serenity asked her sister and Mrs. Lane to help out at the shop on the first day of school.
Liberty had gotten in touch with a contractor to remodel her restaurant. Now that the price had been agreed upon, the remodeling would begin in a few days.
The students would be returning before the restaurantâs renovations began, so Liberty could come over to lend her sister a hand.
âLet me check.â
Taking a seat behind the cash register, Serenity retrieved the list from Jasmineâs bag. Serenity turned on the computer to key the information in an Excel spreadsheet.
Jasmine drew close.
She pulled a chair over and sat next to Serenity, watching Serenity turn on the computer.
Once the computer was up and running, Serenity clicked on Spotify to play a song. It was nice to listen to music while working. She picked the song, âMiss Youâ.
âThis song again? You like the song, huh?â
âYeah. The song was on the radio when I took a ride in Zacharyâs car. I thought it was beautiful.â
âOh, Iâve been meaning to ask-did Mr. York do anything for today?â Jasmine suddenly asked.
Serenity asked in confusion, âDoes he need to do something today? Is today a special occasion?â
Jasmine answered with a grin, âYouâll know when you look at the calendar.â
âFebruary the fourteenth. Whatâs special about today?â
Serenity inquired before it hit her. Curling her lips, she answered, âOh, Valentineâs Day. I donât have any concept of special occasions. Every day is Valentineâs Day to us when weâre in a good place in our relationship. Valentineâs Day means nothing if we donât get along.â
âI knew you wonât pay any mind to special occasions. Your husband must be the same. I donât see him having anything planned yet.â
âDid Mr. Bucham do anything for you?â
Jasmine choked. âNo.â
She then added, âHe probably has the same character as Mr. York. They donât even learn from the rest of the world and send some flowers on Valentineâs Day.â
Serenity smiled and clicked on a browser. This was her work habit where she would listen to music and open the browser to check for some news. Serenity would get to work after reading the latest news.
She had only opened a webpage when a pop-up appeared at the bottom right corner of her screen.
Serenity took a quick glance and saw it was a piece of hot gossip. Uninterested, she was about to close the pop-upâ¦
âDonât close it, Seren. Look closer. Itâs about the heir of the York family. Come on, click on it. Mr. York hasnât been in the news for a while now.â
Although the fun-loving Jasmine believed she would never have the chance to meet Mr. York in person, she was keen on some gossip about the heir. She was dying to find out who his beloved wife was.
