Chapter 172 Furthermore, Zachary was only thirty years old. How did that make him old?
Serenity mentioned more than once that he was a middle aged man.
Zachary had his power of meditation to thank as Serenity‘s words could have stung him to the point of blowing his cover.
“My boss isn‘t old. He‘s not a middle–aged man!” Pulling himself together, Zachary defended himself. Serenity looked at him. “I thought you never met your boss. How do you know he isn’t a middle–aged man? Do you think someone young can run a huge company like York Corporation? Although the business world is not my thing, I know what a big deal York Corporation is in Wiltspoon. York Corporation is neck to neck with that something & Co. in Annenburg.”
Zachary replied after what seemed like an imaginary eyeroll, “FC & Co.”
Like York Corporation, FC & Co. of Annenburg was a giant in its respective city. Behind FC & Co. was the multi billionaire Johnson family. The present CEO, Ben Young Johnson was a year younger than Zachary.
FC & Co. had subsidiaries in Wiltspoon but had no conflict in business with York Corporation. That was why the two giants were able to get along so far. “I don‘t know what‘s the name, but I can tell you it‘s one hell of a corporation. Do you think your boss gets a handle on his senior executives if he‘s young? Is he able to run the company resolutely as the CEO?”
With Zachary nodding, she added. “So, he must be old. Otherwise, he won‘t have the experience and assertiveness to override his senior executives.”
Zachary was speechless.
While Serenity had a point, Zachary was not that old. Of course, he would own up to it if a thirty–year–old man was considered old.

The readers' comments on the novel: Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary)
Please use the English names as it is difficult to read and connect....
I am very greatful of your hard work in translating the novel in English, is there any chance you could use the character’s name in English please, it’s hard to follow the story with Chinese names. Thanks...
Please use correct names and watch the repeating of pages....
Thank you for the story, its going on well, however the changing of names somehow makes it difficult to follow. Even learning the new ones that you have tried to match, it is extremely difficult to follow and enjoy the drama while trying to go back to rechecking who we are talking about. The title is still Married at first sight (Serenity and Zachary) but they no longer exist in the whole picture. You created a dynamic community which I am sure everyone felt they lived and travelled with. We appreciate all the effort and your insight. I am very grateful for this novel is very captivating....
Please continue using Zachary,. Serenity,Duncan, Liberty etc . You jumped 30 updates and changed names where I'm unable to follow the story and losing interest. This is a great disservice to your loyal readers....
Changing names ruins the whole story. Whoever heard of such a thing....
Please use the old names, the new names are too confusing...
