Hitched & Hitched Again: A Comedy of Marital Mayhem novel Chapter 472

"Given your attitude, we'll definitely put in a good word for you with Winona when she gets back. Maybe she'll soften up a bit toward you."

Zane chuckled, "Alright, then you guys better head back. I've got to dash for a meeting at the office. Let's catch up when we're free."

"Sure thing," Blossom waved goodbye.

Elysia, snapping back to reality, waved at him too.

As soon as the elevator doors closed, Zane's expression shifted instantly.

Stepping out of the elevator, he returned to the call he had earlier, "What's the problem now?"

"You've got a tail."

"Who?!"

"Not sure yet, looks like it's more than one party."

Zane furrowed his brows as he got into his car, slamming the door with force, "Could it be someone from the Newsom family?"

"Possibly, has the old man noticed anything odd?"

"His daughter's been out of touch for a while; he's getting anxious."

"Didn't you show him the video?"

"I did, and he bought it, but that old fox is cunning. We can't take him lightly."

"Should we take him out?"

"Not yet, the timing's not right!"

"The only thing we're sure of is someone named Callum is on your tail! He's been snooping around for Winona lately, seems like he caught wind of her agent's mishap but isn't quite sure, so he's digging deep."

A vicious gleam crossed Zane's eyes,

"Callum once had a thing for Winona. His digging might just be because he can't reach her. Don't sweat it; we'll find an opportunity to deal with him. Focus on finding out who else is poking around!"

"Got it."

After hanging up, Zane tossed his phone into the glove compartment and massaged his temples.

Looking up at the building, his face creased in frustration, "Elysia, when will you ever see the truth behind my actions? Sigh..."

Zane lingered for a while before leaving. Axel, hiding in a corner, watched him go, eyes narrowing.

Upstairs, Blossom asked Elysia curiously,

"What happened to you just now? You seemed troubled all of a sudden."
