Chapter 243
Zachary’s exclusive car drove away from the entrance of York Corporation. Jim only let go of Elisa after
Zachary’s car was out of sight.
Elisa turned around to slap Jim.
Jim quickly grabbed her wrist and warned her with a cold expression, “Ms. Stone, I don’t discriminate
between men and women in a fight.”
“Let me go! I dare you to hit me!”
Jim flung Elisa’s hand away fiercely and said coldly, “I won’t hit you if you don’t hit me. Ms. Stone, if
you’re rude to me, I’ll treat you the way you treat me.”
Although Jim was a bodyguard, he did not feel inferior to others.
His boss treated the bodyguards like brothers.
If Elisa used her identity to threaten and hit Jim, Jim would not be polite to her.
“You!”
Elisa was shocked by Jim’s cold attitude. Unlike Serenity, Elisa did not know martial arts. She only
used her status to act as she pleased in Wiltspoon and had never met another young lady who was
more powerful than her. That was why Elisa could do whatever she wanted.
Jim was not bothered to bicker with Elisa. He said coldly, “Stop pestering my boss. He doesn’t like
you!”
After speaking, Jim strode toward the bodyguard’s car that was waiting for him.
Elisa’s face turned red and gloomy with rage because of what Jim said. It took a while. for her to come
to her senses. As the bodyguard’s car drove past, she yelled, “Who do you think you are to talk to me
like this?! Don’t you know who I am?”
The guards on duty in the security room heard Elisa’s enraged remarks and thought to themselves, Jim
only treated Ms. Stone like that because he knew who she was…‘
Elisa was the younger sister of Stone Group’s CEO and was adored by her family. It was not an
exaggeration to say that she was loved by everyone because of her powerful identity. However, the
employees of York Corporation knew that Stone Group was their rival, so why should they bother to
please Elisa Stone?
It was impossible for Zachary York to accept Elisa’s pursuit.
Thus, no one in York Corporation was afraid of offending Elisa.
Zachary’s exclusive car stopped at a red light.
Zachary called Josh.
Josh looked at the car in front of him and answered the phone with a laugh. He said, ” I’ll be able to
hear you if you just wind down your window, turn back, and shout.”
“Josh, I’ll have to cancel our lunch. You can have lunch at the hotel by yourself.”
“Why?”
“I’m going to accompany my grandma. She called me just now.”
Zachary wanted to save face and did not say he was going to Serenity’s bookstore for lunch.
Josh said with a smile, “I can accompany Grandma May for lunch too. I don’t think she’ll mind my
presence!”
Grandma May was an easygoing person and was affable to the younger generation. She would treat
Zachary’s friend–cum–employee like her own grandson.
“Not today.”
“Oh-”
Josh dragged his response and seemed to have guessed the reason. He smiled and said, “ Okay then.
I’ll go to the hotel by myself.”
After explaining to his friend, Zachary ordered the driver, “Send me back to Brynfield.”
During their stalemate, Zachary and Serenity had been living separately. Zachary’s national MPV that
he bought specifically to deceive Serenity was still parked in Brynfield. He did not ask anyone to drive
that car to the office as he usually did.
Thus, Zachary went over to drive the national MPV.
The driver complied with his order.
Ten minutes later, the driver sent Zachary back to Brynfield. Zachary drove the national MPV and went
straight to Wiltspoon School.
When Zachary arrived at Serenity’s bookstore, the students who just got out of school were picked up
by their parents.
The bookstores and convenience stores in front of Wiltspoon School resumed their peace after the
bustle.
