Cupid's Arrow hit me hard! novel Chapter 1913

After a moment, Josh said, “I wish I could go to Jensburg to get first-hand gossip.”

Zachary told him, “You can still get first-hand information even in Wiltspoon. Kevin had only given Hayden the flowers an hour ago, yet you’ve learned about it. Do you even need to go to Jensburg?”

Josh smiled and said, “Although I can get intel in Wiltspoon, it’s still quicker if I were in Jensburg.”

“There are twenty minutes left until we can get off work,” Zachary suddenly said.

“So? I’m going to have a meal with my wife after clocking off. Oh, right. I have to tell her about this big news. She loves gossip the most. I’m not afraid of you laughing at me, Zachary, but I feel like Jasmine only married me to obtain first-hand gossip.”

Zachary said, “It seems like you have some self-awareness.”

Josh said, “It can’t be. It must’ve been because I was excellent, treated her well, and our personalities complemented each other. We got together because she had fallen in love with me and not to become gossiping partners.

“Nevertheless, having someone to gossip with feels great. I’m requesting to leave twenty minutes early. I have to go back and eat with my wife. The traffic will be getting heavier. I’ll be home just in time for dinner.”

Josh stood up to leave after speaking.

Zachary told him, “You’ve been coming in late and leaving early every day. Where did the old dedicated Josh go?”

“Didn’t you do the same in the past? You weren’t professional at all, and I learned that from you. Besides, this is York Corporation, your family’s company. It doesn’t belong to the Buchams.”

Josh was thick-skinned. He was not afraid of his friend nagging him about leaving early.

When he reached the office door, he stopped and turned to say, “You’re dedicated to work now because your wife isn’t home. If your wife were back home, you would’ve left earlier than me.”

Zachary smiled and said, “You can leave. Is having a wife that proud of a thing? As if I don’t have one myself.”

“Yes, having a wife is that great.”

Josh left smugly.

He could enjoy piping hot food prepared by his wife when he got home. What would Zachary have? There would only be his wife’s pets waiting for him at home.
