Love at First Novel

Zachary gave a few instructions and then hung up the phone.

In the past, he would want to talk for hours when they spoke on the phone. But now, with something to hide from Serenity, he ended the call quickly to avoid letting it slip.

Serenity had no doubts because it was the New Year, and everyone was busy. Zachary, as the head of the York family, was busier than anyone else.

His younger brothers had grown up and could take care of themselves, but few stayed in Wiltspoon for long-only Callum, River, and Alex. Evan and Elian had to travel frequently.

Kevin and Tatum hadn't returned to Wiltspoon because of love. With the seniors visiting, they hadn't paid much attention to Tatum's situation these past few days. They didn't know if there had been any progress between Tatum and Elora.

Thinking about it, it had only been a few days. Unless it was love at first sight, Elora wouldn't fall in love with Tatum so quickly.

Serenity didn't go to watch the situation unfold. After her brothers-in-law succeeded in wooing their wives, they would bring her sisters-in-law back to meet their parents, and then she could meet them.Content © provided by NôvelDrama.Org.

After putting down his phone, Zachary was silent for a moment. He then stood up, walked to the floor-to-ceiling window, and looked at the night view outside. His office was on the top floor of an office building, offering a view of the entire city of Wiltspoon.

"Knock, knock."

There was a knock on the door.

Zachary didn't turn his head and responded in a low voice, "Come in."

His bodyguard pushed the door open. Zachary wasn't working overtime; he was just staying in the office. His secretary had left, but the bodyguards were still waiting outside. Many employees were also working late, knowing President York was still there, as he often worked late into the night.

"Master, Mr. Lewis is here and wants to see you."

Duncan is here? Zachary guessed Duncan might know about Liberty's current situation. He couldn't hide it from Duncan, as the Lewis family also had bodyguards with Liberty.

"Let him in."

Zachary didn't stop Duncan.

The bodyguard responded respectfully. Shortly after, the two bodyguards who always followed Duncan pushed him in.

Zachary turned away from the window and walked toward Duncan.

"You can go out now." Zachary personally pushed Duncan towards his desk.

The Lewis family bodyguard quietly left the office.

After pushing Duncan to sit in front of the desk, Zachary asked, "Do you want water or wine?"

Duncan, with a headache, replied, "I don't want to drink. Zachary, Liberty will be in danger in Jensburg. Shem said she won't come back and will stay there to confront the head of the Farrell family. She said she can't keep avoiding them and must solve the problem. I can't persuade her no matter how hard I try. Please help me persuade her to consider Serenity and Sonny." Liberty might not consider Duncan, but she would definitely consider Sonny and Serenity.

Zachary poured him a glass of warm water. "Drink some water first. Do you want to have a midnight snack? Let's go have a snack and talk slowly."

"Zachary!" Duncan shouted in a low voice, "Why aren't you anxious at all? Liberty's just your sister-in-law, You' don't need to worry. I'm so anxious I wanted to fly there overnight, but Liberty wouldn't let me. She said that even if I went, I wouldn't be able to help her."

As he spoke, Duncan raised his fist and hit his legs. "It's all my fault that my legs are useless. I've been doing rehabilitation for asosilve been long, long, but they still can't recover. When Liberty needs my help, I can't go because of my mobility problems. Even though I want to fly over, I know I can't help her and would only be a burden."
