Chapter 158
Out of habit, Zachary took a moment of silence before asking, “Has the Brown family left? Did they do a
nything excessive?”
“They didn‘t do anything overboard , but they did say a lot of nasty stuff. I was so angry I nearly beat th
em up. They‘re just as ridiculous as my relatives. All they did was blame my sister and say it was my si
ster‘s fault. They want my sister to go to their
place and apologize to Hank with gifts. As if that‘s going to happen!”
The mention of the Browns saw a rise in Serenity‘s blood pressure. Before she knew it,
Serenity clicked her tongue on the phone and quickly
realized how embarrassingly she behaved. She said, “I got too angry, Mr. York. I hope you didn‘t mind
my language.”
Zachary replied tenderly, “Did you have a stern word with them? You should chase them out with a bro
om. They had the audacity to tell your sister to apologize when she was a victim of abuse.”
“I roasted them
to kingdom come, and they fled the scene. Jasmine took out the broom, but I thought I should keep it to
gether since we‘re civilized human beings. I didn‘t chase them out with the broom.”
Zachary was tempted to laugh.
Serenity was not a tolerant person, but she put up with it for the sake of
her sister‘s future and before her sister made a decision. It was hard on Serenity.
“Where is your brother–in–law working?”
Zachary intended to ring up the boss of that company to give Hank some extra attention.
That was, of course, only if he knew the boss of the company.
“Waltham Electronics. It‘s a large–
scale company of over three thousand employees that manufactures mainly electronic parts. My sister
and Hank joined the company straight out of college. My sister
was in the finance department and worked her way up to be the finance director before getting hitched.
“She‘s so gullible to trust Hank. She quit her job after marriage and stayed at home to ready herself for
pregnancy. Her pregnancy and time with the baby took three years away from her career while Hank cli
mbed the ladder to become a manager with his own secretary.”
“Mr. York, do you know anyone from Waltham Electronics?”
Zachary replied, “…I don‘t know anyone, but I‘ve heard about this company.”
York Corporation had a subsidiary
company that produced electronic parts too. It shared the same field as
Waltham Electronics, so that would make them rivals.
Zachary did not run the subsidiary company, but its managing director would have the information on W
altham Electronics on his desk should he ask for it.
“Let me know if you need my help.”
Zachary adjusted his tie. It was the tie Serenity gave him.
Although it was her thank–you gift
for his help, Serenity bought the tie with her money. Zachary would put on clothes that she gave him. He
Callum had recommended the handicraft to everybody before, so he trusted they would increase traffic t
Zachary‘s silent publicity effort would have a way better effect than Callum‘s.
“I will handle what I can. I‘m good without your help for now. Oh, I want to ask you a favor if you can help
After a brief silence, Zachary responded apologetically,” I‘m sorry, Serenity. I can‘t help
you with this. Our finance
department is at full capacity now.” Even if York Corporation was hiring, Zachary was not going to place
in-
law in the company. He would blow his cover. “It‘s okay. I was only asking. My sister has the experience
