NovelOnlineChapter 251 In the evening, when the work day was about to end, Josh knocked on the door to the CEO’s office and
entered, carrying a stack of documents in his arms.
Zachary raised his head and eyed him for a second before he returned to his work. After Josh sat
down, Zachary remarked, “What use is your secretary?”
“She’s pregnant! I’m being considerate of her. I don’t want her to run back and forth. and tire herself
out. Her husband might come looking for me then. So I did it myself.”
Josh placed the stack of documents in front of his good friend.
“I’ve looked through them. There’s no problem with them, so you just have to sign them.”
After he set the documents down, he got up to pour himself a glass of warm water. He sat back down
and proceeded to drink his water while looking at the man sitting opposite him.
Zachary was extremely handsome. Even if his face was tense all day in a cold and serious expression,
it wasn’t enough to mask his handsome exterior.
In this age and day where looks were everything, girls and young women would fall for him without fail
once they glimpsed at him a few times.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtMaybe there was an exception, and that was their Mrs. CEO.
Josh admired Serenity, hands down. In just a little more than a month, she had managed to coak the
most thoroughly iron–hard tree of York Corporation that was their CEO into flowering buds, and it even
seemed like the buds were about to bloom.
And more importantly, Serenity had not fallen for Zachary.
How did she manage to protect her heart?
Zachary treated her pretty well. Those admirers out there only had a glimpse of Zachary a few times
but could not forget him for years after, like Elisa Stone! She was just like that. After being unable to get
over him for a few years, she tried to pursue
him.
On the other hand, you had Zachary treating Serenity so well and even making many exceptions for
her, but Serenity could still protect her heart and remained unmoved. That was the part that Josh
admired her for.
“What are you looking at?”
Zachary had not raised his head, but he knew his friend was staring at him.
“Looking at your handsome face, duh! Zachary, you really are handsome. You’re just bad–tempered
and aloof. If you were the gentle and considerate type, people might think you were a woman. If you
were a woman, how could anyone else go on? But if you were a woman, I’d do anything to cling to you
and marry you.”
Zachary flipped through the documents Josh had brought and studied them carefully. After making sure
there really were not any problems with the documents, only then. did he sign off on them.
“Isn’t there a business reception tonight?”
“Yeah. Are you planning to go? If you are, the organizer would probably dance in joy for a month and
brag about it for the next ten years.”
The business reception that was being held at Wiltspoon Hotel that night could not be considered a
high–level reception. The invitees were middle management at big corporations or bosses of smaller
companies.
Someone like Zachary, who was at the top of the top, would never take part in a business reception like
that of tonight.
Of course, if Zachary wanted to go, he could.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏm“If you want to go, I’ll get Mr. Murray to wait for you.”
Mr. Murray was a manager of one of the subsidiary companies under York Corporation. Josh had
arranged for him to take part in the reception after he analyzed the invitation sent to York Corporation
by the organizer.
That was because the subsidiary Mr. Murray was managing had just opened recently and still needed
to network to get business.
Taking part in a business reception and getting to know some of these old managers would smoothen
the road before him even if he could not get their business.
“I’m not going. I was just asking.”
Zachary rarely attended gatherings held by the upper crust, let alone a business. reception like that.
He just wanted to go to the hotel to have a drink.
“You have something on your mind, or else you wouldn’t have brought it up out of nowhere.”
“I want to have a drink or two,” Zachary said nonchalantly.
He had a presidential suite exclusively for his use at the Wiltspoon Hotel, located on the top floor.
In the past, if the socializing ran late, he would not return home and just stay in the
hotel.
