Chapter 403
Josh was waiting for Zachary at the entrance of the office building.
His pearly whites welcomed Zachary.
“I thought you weren’t coming to the office today.”
Josh followed Zachary inside while the bodyguards stopped at the entrance of the office building.
“If I don’t come in and ask you to preside over the meeting, you’ll just complain about how much you must’ve owed me in the past life that you’re enslaved by me now.”
“You’re quite self–aware and know that you’ve been enslaving me this whole time, huh?” Zachary turned his head to look at him. “I’m just providing a stage for you to perform. If I didn’t, would you be able to get the attention of your patriarch?”
The younger generation of the Bucham family was not inferior to the York family.
Josh stood out among the Bucham family’s younger generation mainly because of his capability, his friendship with Zachary, and his position in the top management of York Corporation.
He was the most valued nephew of the Bucham family’s patriarch, so he had a very high status within the family. Josh was not interested in becoming the next patriarch and was very close to the patriarch’s son. The two of them were like biological brothers.
Josh giggled. “You’re just training me to be your chief of intelligence. It just so happens that I love gossip, and those private affairs you asked me to investigate are all gossip–worthy news. If I’m ever short of money, I can make a fortune by selling one of your personal scoops to the paparazzi.”
The two men entered the elevator together.
Zachary retorted, “You’ll only be short of money if you transfer all your property to me. Otherwise, you’ll never lack money.”
Although Josh had a thing for gossip and drama, he was reliable and tight–lipped. Otherwise, Zachary would not be able to trust Josh to this extent.
Clive Stone tried to poach Josh countless times, but he failed to do so.
So many people tried to get Josh drunk so Josh could spill the York family’s internal secrets, but they all failed too.
“You have so much money that you can’t possibly spend in your lifetime, yet you still want me to transfer mine to you?! By the way, did you enjoy catching the scandalous pair last night?”
Since they were the only ones in the elevator, Josh asked about it openly.
“And why didn’t you ask me to help? I was dreaming about it all night!”
For those who liked gossip, it was incredibly frustrating not to be able to watch the drama
unfold.
“It’s at the Stone Group’s hotel. You’ll just attract unnecessary attention if you go. You might
even be in today’s headlines.”
Josh said reluctantly, “As if no one will recognize you if you go…”
“I put on makeup.”
Josh was lost for words.
Well, he did not think of that.
“Was there a fight?”
“Yup.”
“Was it amusing?”
Zachary glanced at him again. Seeing Josh’s eager face, he smiled and said, “Yeah. My sister–in -law was really good at acting, and her fighting skills can compare to my Serenity’s.”
“Wow, so she’s become YOUR Serenity, huh?”
Josh locked in on the keyword.
“Otherwise, could she be yours?”
Josh quickly said, “I wouldn’t dare make her mine. Your wife is exceptional at fighting.” “She practiced kickboxing.”
Josh sang her praises. “Wow, brawn and brains! Zack, you definitely picked up a treasure. Grandma May introduced such a good woman to you only because you’re her grandson. Back then, you looked like the Grim Reaper in the office every day when Grandma May nagged you about marrying Serenity.
“I’m also a capable man, but Grandma May didn’t think to introduce such a brawny and brainy. girl to me. By the way, does Jasmine know how to fight?”
