Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 882

Chapter 882

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 powerful men can win an Oscar with your acting.”

They had the power to shut people up and keep the deceived in the dark.

Ordinary people had no means to stage the play for so long.

“I never lied to you, Jasmine. You didn’t want me to hang out with you as Mr. Bucham, so I’m just an ordinary guy here with you. I’ve kept nothing from you.”

Opening a box of pastries, Jasmine took a bite out of one and said, “You already ran background checks on me. Even if you’re an ordinary guy with me now, you already have all the information you need and don’t need to know about me.”

Josh was embarrassed.

That was his habit.

Jasmine went for another tart after finishing one. She slid the box toward Josh, gesturing for him to eat.

Bucham household.

What kind of woman would turn the head of a resourceful man like Julian?

Josh pulled out a napkin and kept both hands under the table as he wrapped the cake with the napkin before throwing it into the trash can. Pretending like nothing ever happened, he wiped his hands and put them back on the table. Josh said, “Well, it won’t reach our ears even if there’s gossip about Julian.”

There was no way they could get dirt on Julian unless the latter leaked the information himself.

Curious, Jasmine remarked, “I wonder what type of woman would attract Julian.”

Josh murmured, “I’d like to know too.”

Ring, ring, ring…

With Jasmine’s phone ringing, she looked at the caller ID and said, “Keep it quiet. It’s Mother Superior calling.”
