Chapter 805
Old Mr. and Mrs. Hunt could not give the family a moment of rest too. The old folks expected money from their kin for the holidays since their savings were spent on Old Mrs. Hunt’s hospital stay. The seniors did not feel comfortable without any money. so they tried to get money from the rest of the family for retirement.
John said, “Dad, Serenity’s husband is the York guy. He’s Mr. York, the heir of the York family. I’m talking about the wealthiest family in Wiltspoon. He’s worth billions.”
Baffled, Chris looked at his son as if he could not believe the words coming out of his
son’s mouth.
Was Serenity’s husband the heir of the wealthiest Yorks?
A billionaire?
That would mean a lot of money.
“Is that true, John?”
“Honest to God. His interview was on TV. We’ve met Zachary. The reporters called him Mr. York. It must be him. It is him.”
Once Chris got the confirmation he needed, he smacked his lap and said, “I’ll go find. your grandparents now. That’s their retirement fund sorted. Serenity’s husband is wealthy. How much is he worth again? Billions! I get your grandparents to ask her for money. She doesn’t have to give a lot to provide for your grandparents anyway.
“Well, I’ll get your grandparents to ask for more since the money will be ours to split once they’re dead.”
Chris had everything thought out.
Why should they be left out when their niece married a billionaire?
It slipped Chris’s mind that their relationship with Serenity and Liberty was beyond
repair.
With no regard to his son’s thoughts, Chris ditched John and hurried to look for his parents at Serenity’s parents’ home.
Serenity had no idea how people, who had met Zachary but did not know who he was, would react to the interview. All she knew was that she needed to see Zachary
now.
She drove too fast and rear-ended a car. It was a good thing the damage was not as
bad. The person wanted to call the cops and claim the insurance when Serenity got out of the car and assessed the damage. She dug out all the cash in her purse, around several thousand dollars, and gave the money to the person.
“I can’t stay to sort this out since I have an emergency, mister. This is for the repairs. You can contact me if it isn’t enough.” She then gave her number to the person.
The person had checked the bump on his car. He did not drive an expensive car, and the damage was only superficial. The repair would cost two thousand dollars at most, but Serenity gave him more than enough to cover the cost.
With Serenity in a hurry to leave and looking distraught, the man said, “You don’t look too good. Watch out on the road.”
“Thank you, mister. I’m so sorry about the accident. I got to go. I have an emergency, a really urgent one.”
“Go on. Be safe.”
Serenity returned to her car and drove away.
Although she was still driving recklessly the rest of the journey, Serenity made it to York Corporation in one piece.
She pulled the handbrake and jumped out of the car before racing into the office building.
The security guard on duty was going to stop her when he got a good look at who it was. He would not dare come in her way.
If someone like Serenity who had no interest in the entertainment news had seen. Zachary’s interview, then of course, the employees of York Corporation would have watched it by now.
Even though everybody knew Serenity was the CEO’s wife, the CEO had only made it public today.
Serenity dashed into the office building.
“Ms. Hunt?”
The two receptionists stopped her.
Serenity stopped in her tracks and caught her breath from running too quickly.
A receptionist went to pour her a glass of water while the other moved a chair over
for her to sit on. The receptionist uttered, “Are you looking for Mr. York, Ms. Hunt? He hasn’t come in today. He’s not in the office.”
This was the truth.
