Chapter 574
After spending a day hearing gossip about Mr. York’s marriage and his tendency to dote on his wife, Serenity applied a facial mask at the dressing table that night and remarked to Zachary, “I heard nothing but stories about your boss today p>
With a serious expression, Zachary asked, “Oh? What kind of stories p>
“You genuinely don’t know?” Serenity turned to look at him. “Your boss made a public announcement that he’s married, but no one knows who his wife is. Elisa mentioned that it created quite a stir in high society p>
“Zachary, you work at York Corporation. Do you have any insider information about the identity of your boss’s wife p>
“I heard the press waited outside your office building for a long time but left empty-handed p>
Zachary pulled a chair over and sat next to his wife, watching her apply the facial mask. He picked up the mask packaging to check the brand, noting it was a high-quality, expensive product.
“Elisa gave it to me. I rarely use facial masks, but I decided to try it tonight,” Serenity explained.
Zachary frowned and said, “Don’t use the skincare products Ms. Stone gives you. Tell me the brand you usually use, and I’ll get them for you p>
“Elisa gave me plenty. It would be a waste not to use them. Besides, Elisa’s a girl. Are you jealous of women too p>
Zachary reached out to touch her face lightly. “I’ll be jealous of anyone who distracts you and when you don’t prioritize me p>
“Hehe. Who was it that claimed he doesn’t know what jealousy is p>
Zachary was left speechless.
“Come on, Zachary. Tell me who your boss married p>
Zachary replied with a chuckle, “I thought you weren’t interested in my boss’s affairs p>
“I can’t say I’m not interested; I just haven’t tried to pry. Your boss p>
You and I come from two different worlds. You rarely see your boss at York Corporation, let alone me. It’s likely that I will never meet him.
“That’s why I can’t be bothered with the gossip surrounding him. There’s quite a stir this time, so I thought I should ask,” Serenity said.
“Most importantly, Elisa wants to know who his wife is p>
Zachary asked cautiously, “Why does Ms. Stone want to know? Is she planning something against my boss’s wife p>
Serenity shot him a glare. “Don’t say that about Elisa. She’s not malicious; she’s a good person. But things just aren’t meant to be between her and your CEO.
“Elisa mentioned she would move on and stop pursuing Mr. York if he’s married or has a serious girlfriend. True to her word, she has. God knows how many times she cried upon discovering your CEO is married.
“She’d rather suffer in silence than openly pursue Mr. York. That alone makes her stand out among many. I even encouraged her to go after him. She wanted me to be her maid of honor if she married Mr. York. Who knew? What is up with Mr. York anyway? He could have announced his marriage sooner, so Elisa wouldn’t have had to wait so long to move on.
“I almost helped her sabotage someone’s marriage p>
Zachary couldn’t help but smirk slightly. It hadn’t been long since he and Serenity got married, and he had been single back then.
“Elisa wants to find out who Mr. York’s wife is not to cause trouble, but to gain closure on who she lost to p>
After a lengthy pause, Zachary replied, “I’ve told you before: only Mr. Bucham has insight into the CEO’s personal life. However, it is true that the CEO loves his wife deeply p>
“How deeply? I keep hearing that, but it would be nice to get some clarification p>
“Examples of his uxorious ways p>
Zachary opened his mouth, but no words came out.
Serenity muttered to herself, “But he protects his wife and keeps her out of the public eye. It’s clear that he treats her well. I had no idea Mr. York wielded such influence. I only grasped the extent of it after hearing the gossip about him all day p>
“It’s wise for him to want his wife to remain anonymous to prevent potential stalkers. His admirers might go to extremes and harm her p>
Zachary nodded solemnly. “Yes, the CEO chooses not to reveal his wife’s identity as a form of protection p>
While Serenity wasn’t looking, Zachary discreetly lifted his arm to wipe the cold sweat from his forehead.
