Chapter 882

Author: Gu Lingfei
Judging by the timing of Josh’s arrival, Jasmine guessed that Zachary went to the office.

“What did Elisa say or do when she found out that Zachary was Mr. York?”

Josh did not send the photos to Zachary right away after taking them.

Elisa had taken Serenity to the hospital to redress the injury anyway. Zachary would summon him back to the office while he himself would check on his wife at the hospital if Josh were to send him the photos right now.

Josh selfishly thought to himself, ‘All I’m asking for is a half-day.’

He wanted to spend some alone time with Jasmine before going back to slaving himself at the office.

Josh believed he must have owed Zachary tremendously in another life because he was ungrudgingly paying Zachary back by bending over backward now.

“She blamed Mr. York for lying to Serenity. She didn’t do anything though. Mr. York didn’t defend himself, probably because he couldn’t talk his way out of the truth.”

Jasmine looked at Josh. “You wealthy and power

    Josh was not impressed, to say the least. He had asked Jasmine out many times, but her parents still had no clue that he was pursuing their daughter. Here Mrs. Sox thought Mr. Bucham was asking Drake out. Josh was lost for words. Jasmine took her mother’s call. “Mom.” Jasmine chirped, “What can I do for you, mother dearest?” “Don’t act smart with me. Come home early tonight. We’re going to your aunt’s for dinner.” Jasmine asked warily, “What’s the occasion since we’re having dinner at Aunt Rachel’s place?” Mrs. Sox fell silent for a while before asking in a hushed tone, “Is Serenity with you?” “No.” “Good. Shawn’s back but only for a couple of days. Your aunt has been missing him since he went to Havenmill. Mothers are all the same. We can’t stop worrying when our children are miles away. Now that Shawn’s back for a few days, your aunt wants to organize a get-together.” Scowling, Jasmine glanced at Josh and relayed the question that had been bugging her. “Mom, is

    Mrs. Sox would not approve if Shawn continued to dwell on Serenity. What was the meaning of pestering a married woman? “Oh, that reminds me. Your aunt found another nice man for you. You can meet the guy at tonight’s dinner. Your aunt said the guy doesn’t come from a wealthy family. She gave up on that criteria since you hate it so much.” Truth be told, Mrs. Lowe knew her niece had kissed goodbye the notion of marrying a rich husband the moment Jasmine lay herself down on the floor at Mrs. Dawson’s birthday party. That was when Mrs. Lowe called it quits on playing the matchmaker. After staying out of her niece’s business for a while, Mrs. Lowe was once again back to find a man for her niece. Jasmine was twenty-six and single with no boyfriend in sight. Aunt Rachel was nervous for her niece who was not getting any younger. The anxiousness was getting to Mrs. Sox too. The two ladies would always think about setting Jasmine up on dates whenever they got together. “Your aunt

    Nevertheless, Josh was a brilliant man. Mrs. Sox would sigh to herself every time Josh invited her son out for dinner. She would leap with delight if Josh asked her daughter out instead. In fact, Mrs. Sox would be laughing in her sleep. Josh earnestly replied, “Mrs. Sox, I’m not pretending to be Jasmine’s date. To put it accurately, I’m pursuing Jasmine. She hasn’t agreed to be my girlfriend.” Mrs. Sox put the phone away from her ear, making sure she had called the right number. She picked her ear before placing the phone back against it. She asked, “Are you really Mr. Bucham?” “It’s me, Mrs. Sox.” “Did you say you’re wooing Jasmine and not Drake?” Josh replied, “Mrs. Sox… I’m a straight guy. I only like women.” He moaned in his mind, ‘My future mother-in-law and Jasmine are the same to suspect I have a thing for Drake.’Amusingly, Mrs. Sox did not stop him from asking Drake out despite her suspicions. The old lady was quite open-minded. “But you’re so nice to Drake,

    Unfortunately, those good days were coming to an end.Josh finally ended the call with Mrs. Sox.He returned the phone to Jasmine and looked at her with a smile and said, “Let’s go to your aunt’s house for dinner tonight. What should I prepare? What’s my status now?”Jasmine glanced at him as she continued to eat, and said, “Even if you’re a scumbag, my aunt and the others will still think that you’re the best.”He was Josh Bucham, the Mr. Bucham from York Corporation, and from the mysterious Bucham family. That status and identity were what her aunt wanted her niece to have.When they discovered that Serenity’s husband was the heir of the York family, Jasmine’s mother and aunt envied Serenity’s good fortune in front of Jasmine for having taken one of the most outstanding men in Wiltspoon.They always looked at Jasmine when they praised Serenity, and Jasmine knew very well what those expressions meant.Josh said confidently, “I’m not a scumbag. Not to blow my own trumpet, but th

    Jasmine could not help but laugh. “You can be a landlord whenever you want.”“My family’s houses and stores belong to my parents, not me. My mom only told me to collect the rent because she’s too lazy to do it herself, and she gives me a few thousand as remuneration.”Her parents’ money belonged to themselves.Her capabilities could only be measured by the money she earned by herself.“Aunt Rachel said that Shawn came back and asked us to go over for dinner for a get-together.“He just came back for the weekend to see my aunt. He won’t try to bug Seren, so you and Mr. York should stop attacking him and Lowe Enterprise.”Jasmine was not dumb. She figured everything out after learning that Zachary was from the York family.Jasmine would not believe that Josh did not have a hand in Lowe Enterprise being attacked.Josh did not have a guilty conscience, so he said, “Zachary only told Mr. Lowe the reason he terminated their cooperation out of consideration for you and I. Otherwise, L

    At those words, Shawn was shell-shocked. He was in utter disbelief.“You’re lying, right? You’re lying to me because you want me to give up. How can Serenity’s husband be Mr. York? I...” Shawn suddenly remembered that he had not seen Serenity’s husband since she got married.“I have no reason to lie to you. I also found out about this not long ago. It was Mr. York who told us himself. He said that he was attacking Lowe Enterprise because you’re pining for his wife. Shawn, the entire Lowe family will be buried with you if you continue to pester Serenity.”Solemnly his mother added, “You don’t have to bring benefits to the Lowe family, but don’t drag Lowe Enterprise through the mud.”“Zachary... Mr. York’s name is Zachary?”Shawn was in incredulity.Mr. York was Serenity’s husband!“It’s not surprising that you don’t know Mr. York’s name. Many people don’t either. Shawn, it doesn’t matter what his name is. What matters is that he’s Serenity’s husband! Putting aside his status, pos

    The phone in Zachary’s hand almost slipped to the ground. He anxiously called Josh.“Josh, which hospital is Seren in?”His words affected her so much that they caused her to hurt herself.Zachary regretted and blamed himself.Why could he not control his foul temper?“I don’t know which hospital she’s at either. I saw Jasmine alone when I came to the store. I only learned that your wife was injured and sent to a hospital by Elisa when I asked. If you want to know what happened, then call and ask.”Zachary immediately hung up the call with Josh.He called Serenity.The line rang for a long time before she picked up.“Which hospital are you at, Seren? Are you badly hurt? I’ll be right there.”The person who answered the phone was Elisa.Serenity was getting an IV infusion.It was only after arriving at the hospital did Elisa see how deep Serenity’s wound was. It continued to bleed even as the doctor cleaned the wound again. Elisa was a little afraid of blood, so her legs wen

    Zachary was speechless.There was no doubt Elisa was Clive’s sister—the siblings were the same. When they found out that he was Serenity’s husband, they both acted like they had seniority over him as Serenity’s older cousins.He hung up the phone.The nearest hospital to Wiltspoon School was Wiltspoon Community Hospital. Even without checking, he could guess that Elisa sent Serenity to Wiltspoon Community Hospital.Elisa was not angry at being hung up on by Zachary. She helped put Serenity’s phone back into her purse and said, “Seren, your mom is my aunt, which means we’re cousins. The DNA test confirmed it, so it’s an indisputable fact.“I’m a year older than you, so I have seniority over you, right? Zachary is your husband. It stands to reason that I also have seniority over him. You need to make him address me more politely, or my anger won’t be relieved.”Serenity wanted to laugh and said, “It’s his mouth. I can’t control him if he doesn’t want to do it.”“You have to contro

    Zachary was also worried that Serenity would go into premature labor out of shock. He also persuaded her to go for her checkup in a gentle voice. They could not do anything but wait anyway.Serenity finally decided to conduct her prenatal checkup first. Zachary accompanied her. Just moments after they left, the door to the delivery suite opened. A nurse stood there and shouted, “Is Jasmine Sox’s husband here?”“Yes. I’m her husband,” replied Josh quickly. He dashed to the nurse. “You must save Jas, doctor. Save the mother no matter what.”His family members behind him also echoed, “That’s right. No matter what happens, you have to save Jasmine.”The nurse said, “The mother is fine. It’s just that she wants her husband to accompany her as she’s in a lot of pain.”Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.Josh was about to rush inside but was stopped by the nurse.She asked him to change his clothes before taking him inside the delivery suite.Jasmine was wailing in pain.

    With advanced medical technology, a premature baby could still be healthy if taken good care of in the incubator. Serenity said, “Jasmine should be at thirty-five weeks. I just don’t understand why she would suddenly go into labor. Did she fall at home?“Or did she eat something that made her go into labor?”Zachary said, “That’s most likely not the case. Josh’s cousin is Jasmine’s dietician and keeps an eye on her food every day. There’s no way Jasmine would’ve eaten something bad unless she ate it secretly.”Serenity and Zachary suddenly went silent. Pregnant women had weird appetites. Once they had a craving, they could not go unsatisfied. Sometimes, they would even crave fruits that were not in season. Serenity herself was one of them. Once, she woke up in the middle of the night craving mac and cheese. Of course, Zachary, the ever-doting husband, had to satisfy her request. However, where could he find mac and cheese at that hour?Ultimately, he had to drive to the

    People would reap what they had sown. They would have to bear the consequences of their actions. Sometimes, interfering in another person’s fate would backfire. After chatting for some time, Serenity said, “I have to go for my checkup now, Liberty. Let’s talk again when you’re free another day.“By the way, I’ll get someone to bring Sonny to you this weekend. He misses you.”“Okay,” said Liberty. After the call ended, Serenity put her phone into her bag and stood up. She told the man behind the office desk, “It’s almost time, babe. Let’s go.”“Okay. I’m almost done.”Zachary quickly signed and stamped a document before closing it. He walked over with the document in hand. Serenity and Zachary left the office together. He handed the document to his secretary. The secretary did not expect him to pass the document to him personally. He had thought of entering Zachary’s office to request it later. The secretary watched Zachary and Serenity leave. He could not believe

    Lilian often messed with the medicinal herbs her master cultivated, which led to her being chased and scolded by him.It seemed her son had inherited her restless nature.“How’s Sonny been lately?”Liberty had been on edge these past few days because Caroline had been preparing to lure her three brothers into a trap and had not had time to call her son.“Same as usual, but it seems like things have soured again with the Browns.”Serenity added, “Sonny still answers when Hank calls him, but he doesn’t seem happy when his grandparents visit. He doesn’t like going to the Browns’ place, and he doesn’t want to take their calls either.“Hank’s mother and sister are truly incorrigible. They must have been badmouthing you and Duncan in front of Sonny again, which is why he’s upset with them.”During the holidays, Sonny had stayed with the Browns for a few days and started to warm up to them.However, who would have thought that the mother and daughter would start spouting nonsense in f

    Once the baby was born, he would apply the knowledge he had learned over the past few months to care for the baby. He was determined to be a competent and responsible father.Serenity released her arms from around him and shifted to her side.Zachary let go, too, allowing her to turn.Then, she planted countless gentle kisses on his face.“Babe, with you here, the baby and I will be just fine. Don’t worry too much,” Serenity comforted softly after kissing him.“You are my rock. If even you are nervous, I’ll start feeling anxious too, and that won’t be good.”Hearing this, Zachary immediately said, “Seren, don’t worry. I’ll protect both of you. Alright, I won’t be so nervous anymore.”He gently touched her rounded belly again. “Lil’ Bun should be a calm kid. He’s not that mischievous.”He felt that the baby’s movements were not too intense.Serenity wanted to tell him that there were times when the baby kicked more vigorously, but she decided against it, knowing it would only m

    “Just hit the gym a few more times. Lately, you’ve been spending less time there.”Every day after work, he would come home and orbit around her. As a result, he had less time to work out.It was normal to gain a few pounds eating well and exercising less. Did he really think he could eat anything without gaining weight?The reason he could maintain a model-like physique before was that he exercised daily.“Ow.” Serenity suddenly cried out in pain.This startled Zachary so much that he nearly jumped up, asking anxiously, “Is it stomach pain? Are you going into labor? Let’s go to the hospital right away.”He was about to pick her up, but Serenity stopped him by pressing his hand.“Don’t be so nervous, Zachary. It's not time yet. It’s not happening so soon. It’s just the baby kicking again. His kicks are getting stronger.”As she entered the later stages of pregnancy, the little one inside her was growing stronger. Sometimes, a couple of kicks from the baby could actually hurt.

    Zachary, afraid that his wife might refuse to spend time with him at his office in the future, emphasized that he was not busy today.He had already cleared his morning schedule because he needed to accompany his beloved wife for her prenatal checkup.His secretary was well aware of Serenity’s checkup dates. Whenever he saw Serenity turn up at the office with his boss, his secretary would quietly adjust his schedule.Sometimes, on the day of the Serenity’s checkup, his secretary would not schedule any appointments for Zachary at all.Even if appointments were scheduled, Zachary would request they be canceled or rescheduled.Now, in Zachary’s eyes, his wife’s matters were the most important.With Alex now able to share the workload, Zachary felt that he, as the eldest of his generation who had shouldered the bulk of the burden for so many years, deserved a break.Plus, there was the elite team the company had trained; if not now, then when would they be put to use?Everyone was

She could feel it.Sooner or later, he would kill her.Carrie was filled with panic. She wanted to escape but was afraid she would not succeed. No one was there to help her.For a moment, Carrie even considered running to Camryn to confess everything, but she quickly dismissed the thought. The reason she ended up in this situation was entirely due to Camryn.She and Camryn were sworn enemies. Their conflict would not end until one of them was dead. However, even if she died, she would drag Camryn down with her.-Meanwhile, in the CEO's office at York Corporation, Zachary, seated at his desk, kept glancing up at his pregnant wife.

    “You should have gotten rid of them all back then and cultivated a network of people loyal only to you.” Manny felt that his father should not have spared those people in the first place.Tony said, “There were too many of them, all relatives and friends with the same goal as us. We couldn’t eliminate them all at once.”Back then, he had incited everyone to join him in wiping out the entire main family, sparing neither the elderly nor the children.It was because they were all from the collateral branches, jealous of the main family’s long-standing control, and shared a common goal that his conspiracy succeeded.He had also spent over a decade waiting for the right opportunity.Who would have thought that even after wiping out the main family, he still could not obtain the family seal, token, or totem? Without these, he could not become the true head of the family and could only act as a proxy. Many of the connections loyal to the head remained inaccessible.Moreover, much of the
