The Billionaire's Heir I Never Knew Was Mine novel Chapter 105

Chapter 105: Meeting Him Again (2)

After a few minutes, Zachary’s voice broke the silence again.

He asked casually, "Did you go to Virelle with your friends?" while keeping his eyes on the road ahead.

"Hmm...yeah." Sienna nodded before glancing at him briefly. "My friend was fired from the company."

The moment she brought it up, sadness crept into her heart. Her sorrow over losing her best friend was enough to dampen her mood once more.

"Fired?" Zachary finally turned his head toward her, genuine surprise appearing on his face. "Why does your company always fire people?"

Sienna stared at him for a moment before sighing deeply. "I know, right?" she said helplessly. "My company is honestly very weird."

Zachary’s expression softened slightly at her reaction.

"First, Mia almost got fired," she continued, shaking her head. "Now, Riley. At this point, I’m scared to check my email every morning."

"You won’t get fired." The certainty in his voice startled her.

Sienna looked at him quietly for a moment.

"Zach, you sound very confident about that."

"I am." He said calmly.

She gently chuckled at his reaction, aware he might attempt to amuse her.

"My friend is also a bit strange," she continued. "He should be sad tonight, but instead he dragged us all to Virelle to celebrate his last day on the job."

Zachary’s lips curved faintly. "He sounds like a good friend."

"Riley? Of course he is. He’s always ready to help us and brighten our mood when we’re stressed," Sienna said warmly, her thoughts instantly drifting to Riley’s silly jokes and dramatic antics earlier.

She laughed without realizing it.

It confused Zachary. "What is it?" He asked.

"He told us to order the most expensive food because his father gave him a black card."

"He is generous."

Sienna shook her head. "Haha, of course not. But he is taking revenge on his father."

Zachary glanced at her briefly. "Revenge? He seems to hate his father."

Sienna was utterly stunned. She had revealed too much about Riley’s family drama. "Ugh, well, I’m just saying this randomly."

A brief silence passed.

Then Zachary said calmly, "It sounds like your friend comes from a wealthy family."

"Hmm, he is." Sienna nodded and agreed with him. "His family owns a business—"

Her voice slowly faded near the end of her sentence. Because suddenly, something crossed her mind.

Sienna’s gaze shifted toward Zachary. So many things she wanted to know about him. But this man seldom talks about his personal life.

He looked ordinary at their first meeting. Not ordinary in appearance—because honestly, nothing about his face could ever be considered ordinary—but ordinary in the way he carried himself. Quiet. Calm. Simple. He never bragged, never talked about money, never acted superior around her.

However, the last time they met, her curiosity about him actually increased.

Sienna’s heart tightened slightly as several questions rushed through her mind all at once.

’Why have I never asked him about his company?’

’And... I only know his name, Zach.’

Every time she wanted to ask, something distracted her. Either the conversation shifted naturally, or she became too nervous and forgot about it entirely.

After hesitating a few seconds, Sienna finally spoke. "Zach..." she began softly.
