The Billionaire's Heir I Never Knew Was Mine novel Chapter 206

Chapter 206: Zachary’s Gossip News! (2)

For another moment, neither Kevin nor Ethan spoke or even made a sound. They simply stared at Zachary, then at Sienna, then back at Zachary again as if hoping they had misunderstood him.

"Hi, Sienna," Kevin was the first to recover. "...It’s nice to meet you. I’m really sorry to ask this, but are you really Zach’s wife?"

Kevin stood and politely extended his hand toward her. Before Sienna could respond, however, Zachary casually stepped between them and guided her toward the empty seat beside him.

"Please greet my wife without involving any handshake," Zachary said, with a completely straight face and devoid of emotion.

Sienna barely managed to hide her smile, secretly pleased that her husband was looking a bit jealous. At the same time, she enjoyed watching them share a lighthearted, amusing conversation.

Kevin lowered his hand and looked at him in disbelief. "Seriously, Zach?"

"What?"

"No handshake? I was only being polite."

"I know."

"And?"

Zachary ignored him.

Kevin let out an exaggerated sigh before dropping back into his seat. "You’ve been married for who knows how long, and you’re already this protective."

"Why not? I’m just setting boundaries," Zachary replied nonchalantly.

"You call that boundaries?" Kevin asked, shaking his head. "I didn’t even get within a meter of her."

Scott couldn’t help laughing from the side. "I think you’re wasting your breath, Kev. Once Zach makes up his mind, no one can change it. Not even the best hypnotherapist."

Ethan nodded in acceptance, a smile tugging at the corners of his mouth. "Nevertheless, I’ve never seen him act like this before."

Zachary looked at all three of them without the slightest embarrassment.

"Then get used to it," he said proudly, then glanced at Sienna and took her hand, holding it firmly.

Sienna couldn’t help but smile at their conversation. She found their friendship surprisingly easygoing despite all the teasing. Sitting beside Zachary, she turned to Kevin with an apologetic smile.

"It’s nice to meet you too, Kevin..." Sienna finally interrupted their argument. Then she turned to Ethan and said, "Nice to meet you, Ethan."

Kevin smiled back, deciding not to argue with Zachary any further.

But then—

"Oh...!" Kevin exclaimed, his eyes widening as something suddenly clicked in his mind. "I think I’ve seen you before."

Sienna looked at him in surprise, clearly caught off guard by his words. She searched her memory, trying to remember where they might have met, but no matter how hard she thought about it, she couldn’t recall seeing him before.

Before she could respond, Zachary spoke first. His voice remained calm, but the protective edge in his tone was impossible to miss.

"You’ve seen my wife before?" he asked, narrowing his eyes at Kevin. "Where? When?"

Kevin turned to him and immediately noticed how serious he looked. He couldn’t help laughing softly.

"Wow... relax, my friend." He raised both hands in surrender before smiling. "I never met her personally. I only saw her at a club."

"A nightclub?" Scott and Ethan asked at the same time, both staring at Kevin.

Sienna blinked in confusion because she had never stepped into a nightclub in her life.

"What nightclub?" she asked, looking genuinely puzzled.
