Chapter 936
Married at First Sight
âMy boss suddenly showed mercy and attended the social function on his own. Iâm quite relaxed, so I came over to pick you up after work. Letâs have a meal together. I made a reservation and even ordered the dishes at Wiltspoon Hotel. Once we arrive, we can straight away have the dishes served without waiting.
âIâve also bought two movie tickets. After dinner, we can watch a movie. Itâs rare that I have so much leisure time.â
Ever since Josh became Zacharyâs administrative executive, he had been really busy.
He barely had nights with no social functions to attend.
Josh was busiest during the period when Zachary and Serenityâs relationship improved. It was because Zachary always assigned the companyâs matters to Josh while he spent time with his wife.
When Jasmine was about to speak, Josh suddenly swung around and ran out.
Jasmine was dazed for a moment before she asked Mrs. Lane, âI havenât said anything, have I? Why did he run out all of a sudden?â
Mrs. Lane said, âJust now, I was standing outside and saw Mr. Bucham getting out of the car with a bouquet of flowers. He noticed the crowd in the sto e, so he put the bouquet back in the car. After that, he removed his coat and came in.
âSo now, heâs probably going to get the bouquet.â
Mrs. Lane said with a grin, âMr. Bucham cares about you. Youâre blessed like the missus.â
At the mention of the missus, Mrs. Laneâs smile faded. She sighed and said, âI wonder what the missusâs decision is. Mr. Zachary has lost his appetite because of the missus, and he has thinned down. We feel great pity for him.â
Of course, his mother, Mrs. York, was the one who sympathized with Mr. Zachary the most.
As it was Mr. Zacharyâs mistake, Mrs. York could not cause the missus trouble. Also, Old Mrs. York was still around in command.
According to Old Mrs. York, the coupleâs conflict should be solved by themselves.
No one should meddle in it unless Zachary asked the elders for help.
âZachary and Seren are having a hard time. Although Liberty is the one on diet, Seren has lost a few pounds as well.â
Serenity did not let this issue affect her diet. She became slightly thinner probably because she had been pretty preoccupied.
âMs. Sox and Mr. Bucham must take care of yourselves.â
Jasmine said, âMrs. Lane, do you think Josh and I are wellâmatched?â
The Buchams had strict criteria for selecting marriage partners.
âYes. Both of you are wellâmatched in appearance.â
Jasmine was speechless.
Ever since her parents and aunt knew that Josh was going after her, they all told her to hurriedly accept his love and not miss the boat.
Even Shawn told Jasmine that Josh was great.
It made Jasmine feel that she would be beaten if she rejected Joshâs love.
Josh put on his coat again. Then, he held the bouquet of flowers and walked in. He walked up to Jasmine and handed the bouquet to her before he said affectionately,â Jasmine, these flowers are for you.â
Jasmine accepted the bouquet. âThanks.â
âGlad that you like it.â
He then took out a red Tiffany box from his pocket. After opening the box, he handed it to Jasmine. âI thought this charm bracelet suits you, so I bought it.â
He pulled Jasmineâs hand over and put the bracelet on her wrist.
Jasmine did not decline his gift, knowing that she was unable to do so. Josh might be all smiles most of the time and seem more approachable than Zachary, but he was actually domineering.
After receiving such an expensive gift, she had to think about what gift to return him with so that she would not owe him.
As the saying goes, âOne good turn deserves another.â
