“Zachary, are you a liar?” Serenity asked him.
Zachary merely stared at her, remaining silent.
“Zachary, are you really a liar?” Serenity raised her voice this time.
Then, she woke up.
Even after waking, Serenity felt dazed. After a moment, she gathered her thoughts and muttered, “So it was just a dream… What did I dream about p>
Turning her head, she noticed that the man who had gently lulled her to sleep was no longer there.
“I knew he was up to something, trying to get me to sleep early. No wonder I had a nightmare like that p>
Serenity picked up her phone to check the time before attempting to go back to sleep.
This time, she fell into a deep, dreamless slumber.
Meanwhile, at Wiltspoon Hotel, Mr. Lowe sat in the lobby on the first floor, waiting for Zachary.
He had received an unexpected call from Josh earlier, informing him that Zachary was willing to spare a little time to meet and instructing him to wait at the Wiltspoon Hotel.
Mr. Lowe hurried over right away.
Even after waiting for two whole hours at the hotel with no sign of Zachary, he didn’t dare to show any impatience, remaining seated on the sofa, waiting patiently.
His wife accompanied him.
Occasionally, Mrs. Lowe would check the time, stand up, and step outside the hotel to look for Zachary’s luxury car parade. When she saw nothing, she would return to sit beside her husband.
“Darling, do you think Mr. York will actually come p>
“Mr. Bucham told me it was true, so it has to be. Mr. York is a man of his word. He said he would meet me here, so he will definitely come. Let’s just keep waiting. If Mr. York changed his mind at the last minute, he p>
“would inform us. He wouldn’t make us wait here all night for nothing.” Although York Corporation posed a threat to his company at this moment, Mr. Lowe still trusted Zachary’s integrity.
Mrs. Lowe said anxiously, “We don’t even know how we offended Mr. York in our business dealings. I still remember when Mr. York attended that dinner and greeted Shawn. It’s only been two or three months since then, yet York Corporation has ceased all cooperation with us and even started to poach our business p>
“Darling, do you think someone might have turned them against us?” Mrs. Lowe couldn’t think of anything they had done to upset Mr. York.
After a long pause, she said, “I’ve tried asking around, but no one seems to have instigated any discord between us. We must have unintentionally offended Mr. York in some way p>
“How is that possible? Our opportunities to see Mr. York are rare. Even when we do see him, we hardly get a chance to speak to him. Even if we wanted to offend him, we wouldn’t have the opportunity p>
Mrs. Lowe still believed someone must have slandered them to Mr. York, leading to the breakdown of their business relationship with York Corporation.
“Could Shawn have done something?” Mr. Lowe thought of his son.
He then began to express his frustrations, “I don’t know what’s gotten into Shawn lately. He’s always absent-minded and doesn’t take things seriously anymore. He keeps making mistakes, and the upper management is growing dissatisfied with him. I’ve spoken to him numerous times, but he refuses to change. If this continues, he may not successfully take over the company. There are other capable sons in the Lowe family p>
Mr. Lowe was the current head of Lowe Enterprise, and Shawn was his son, leading everyone to assume that Shawn would naturally inherit the company. However, if Shawn lacked the qualifications, his status as Mr. Lowe’s son would be irrelevant. The priority for everyone was the future of Lowe Enterprise, rather than familial connections.
Mrs. Lowe’s expression soured as she said, “Right now, he really… I believed he would give up, but I didn’t expect him to turn into a virtual zombie, handling things so carelessly. He doesn’t even talk to me when he gets home, as if I’m his enemy when I’m actually his mother p>
Mrs. Lowe felt immense pain seeing her son so heartbroken.
