Chapter 724
FC & Co. and the York Corporation had in–depth cooperation. Elisa heard that Remy was in charge of FC & Co.’s branch in Wiltspoon. No wonder Remy was at York Corporation.
“Mr. Johnson.”
Elisa was the daughter of the Stone family and had heard of Annenburg’s FC & Co. She knew that FC & Co. was the same as York Corporation and was a multi–billion. dollar corporation. These two families were the richest people in their respective cities.
Moreover, the Johnson family was just like the York family. Although they were rich, all family members got along well with each other and worked together. They were a truly harmonious and cohesive family.
Elisa’s mother often said that the York family could become the richest family and be at the top of the social hierarchy for so long because they had an excellent upbringing. The York children and grandchildren were well–trained to be amiable with each other. The York brothers would not turn against each other for personal interest and get along well. They were also unwilling to take over the family business.
Zachary was the eldest grandson and was raised as the successor since birth, so he had no choice but to shoulder the heavy burden.
Some of his younger brothers entered the business world to assist Zachary, and some went into their favorite fields. They were all leaders in their respective industries.
“Ms. Stone, do you want me to give you a ride?” Remy asked warmly and looked at Elisa with a smile that reached his eyes. Elisa felt comfortable around him.
She subconsciously became a little gentler and said, “Thank you, Mr. Johnson. But there’s no need for that. My driver will pick me up.”
Elisa only followed to find out who was the ostentatious person with the convoy. Since she had figured that it was Remy Johnson, she did not need to follow anymore. She could not follow him even if she wanted to because of her flat tire.
“Then I’ll get going first.”
Elisa replied, “Okay, go ahead. I’ll wait here for my driver.”
Remy smiled and said a few pleasantries before he returned to his car. He waved goodbye to Elisa again and drew the curtains of his car window. Soon, the car engine started. Within a few minutes, Elisa could no longer see his convoy.
Meanwhile, Serenity was still waiting for Zachary at the entrance of his office. After Elisa left, Serenity went into the milk tea shop, picked a seat, and sent a message to Zachary.
Serenity: [Zachary, have you gotten off work yet? I’m waiting for you at the milk teal shop opposite your office.]
Zachary: [Why did you come here when it’s so cold today? Did you wear a thick coat?]
Serenity: [You know what I wore when I left the house this morning. I won’t catch a
cold. Let’s go to my sister’s place for lunch. I don’t have to be at the store now, so I thought of picking you up from work since I have nothing to do. Why? Do you not like that I’m here? If you don’t like it, I won’t come here again.]
He came out with a bright smile on his face, which shocked everyone. They all stopped to look at him and thought they were delusional.
