Chapter 66 “Josh!”
Zachary was peeved.
It was the truth when Zachary said it was all for his pride.
Serenity was his wife. It would be a slap on his face if Serenity was harassed. He could not possibly let that happen.
“Fine, fine. I let you be. It‘s all for your pride and dignity. Alright, I‘ll look into the matter. Your wife is Serenity Hunt, right? You could‘ve asked Duncan to help you. As your administrative executive, I had a lot on my plate with the business side of things. I don‘t even have time to get a drink of water.”
Getting up, Zachary went to pour a glass of water. “Drink up. I don‘t want you going around saying you don‘t have time to even drink water.”
“Well, that took you long enough.”
“I thought you weren‘t thirsty. You would‘ve poured yourself a drink if you were. When have you ever asked for permission? Are we buddies or what?” Josh chuckled.
“Duncan doesn‘t know how to keep a tight lid.”
“That’s true. He can be a blabbermouth.”
Josh shuddered.
“Don‘t forget to get me detailed information about all her family members.” Learning from Serenity about her family, Zachary had a feeling that trouble was brewing for the sisters.
He could wash his hand off Liberty‘s affairs but not his wife’s.
For that to happen, Zachary had to know what he was getting into. The art of winning lay in knowing your own and the opponent‘s strengths.
Zachary had never fought an unsure battle. The Hunts could do their worst because Zachary had Serenity‘s back all the way.
