Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 142

Chapter 142

Shawn believed the Hunts were unbelievable. Their shamelessness was on a whole new level.

“Serenity, I got your conversation with them on tape,” Jasmine said. “I‘ll send the voice recording to you in case they make things up about you again online.”

Serenity gave her best friend the thumbs up. The Hunts got her so riled up that it slipped her mind to record on her phone.

“Shawn, aren‘t you going to work?” After sending the voice recording to her best friend , Jasmine realized her cousin was still at the shop. She urged him to hurry to work.

Reluctant to leave , Shawn uttered, “I‘m working in my family‘s company. It doesn‘t make a difference if I‘m a little late.”

“All the more you should put in the effort and abide by the company‘s rules and regulations since you‘re working in your family‘s company. Set a good example so no one can find fault with you. Hurry along now. You‘ll get it if Aunt Rachel finds out you‘re not in the office.”

As Shawn was the firstborn, Jasmine‘s aunt and uncle had high expectations of him to eventually take over the family business.

Serenity chimed in, “Shawn, you should rush to work. It‘ll be time to clock out if you don‘t leave now.

Although Shawn grumbled and whined , he grabbed his car keys and walked out while reminding Serenity,” Serenity, don‘t forget to buy me dinner.” “Got it. When did I ever break my promise to you?”

Shawn left the bookshop reluctantly.

With Shawn gone, the bookshop resumed its former peace.

Oh, Serenity! The battle is far from over. You need to keep going! ‘You can do it!‘ Josh cheered Serenity on in his mind, hoping the missus could steal Zachary‘s heart soon. It would be interesting when it happened.

“Lunch together?”

Zachary put his signature on the paperwork before putting down his pen. He glanced at Josh and declined the request, “You put me off lunch.”

Josh was speechless.

“You‘re nosy like a woman. I prefer silence.”

Josh was dumbfounded , to say the least. How was Josh supposed to gather intel for Zachary if he did not pry into other people‘s business?
