Chapter 72 – Zachary felt brushed off.
He pulled a long face the entire afternoon, leaving everyone at York Corporation on tenterhooks. It was a
mystery who stepped on the toes of the stone-faced CEO. As if his usual aloof demeanor was not
enough, the tensed lines running along his chiseled face only made him scarier.
Even Cullum and Josh refrained from hanging around Zachary. Despite feeling exasperated , Zachary
kept his promise and waited for Serenity at the shop after work. Since Serenity was busy, he stepped into
the shop to help out behind the cash register.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHowever, the combination of his stern outlook, his quiet presence, and his towering build scared the
students away from the cash register. The students could only muster the courage to approach Serenity
and Jasmine. Serenity said to him point-blank, “I’ll take over from here, Mr. York.
” Tilting his head, Zachary stared into Serenity’s eyes with utmost profundity. It took a while before he got
up with a sour face and walked around the cash register to head outside the shop and stand like an ice
sculpture.
It was hard not to notice as Zachary stood there, emanating ominous vibes to stay away. Now the issue
was not that no one came to him to make payment, but no one dared to set foot into the shop other than
the people who were already there.
Serenity, “…” Realizing this, Jasmine drew close and whispered in her best friend’s ear, “Serenity, take
Mr. York away now. I can handle the shop on my own. His presence at the entrance is causing our sales
to plummet.” “Appreciate it, Jas.” Serenity helplessly got up and walked out.
She told Zachary, “Come on.” Zachary stood still, refusing to move. It was only when Serenity tried to pull
him away that he hissed through clenched teeth, “You think I’mno help!” Not knowing what to think,
Serenity reached out and grabbed his arm. “I don’t think so.It’s not a job for you, that’s all.The students
are afraid of you.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmThey’re more terrified to see you than their teachers.” She dragged him into the car. “I’ll take the new car
home, and then you can drive us to my sister’s.” Zachary did not voice an opinion, quietly agreeing to her
plan. He felt a little better. Serenity was right.
As the heir of the York’s, Zachary had never dabbled in the service sector. His birth as the firstborn had
decided his fate to take over the family businesses and affairs. Zachary assumed his position as the
CEO of York Corporation the moment he came of age and hadthe capability to carry on the business.
Being at the top only added an air of aloofness to him. Apart from a few close executives , everyone else
at York Corporation shied away from him.
It was extraordinary that Serenity did not hold his stoic nature against him when they signed the papers
minutes afterthey had just met.
Hmm… He should really thank Serenity for not dismissing him. Zachary would have been humiliated if
Serenity shunned him when he was willing to get a marriage license with her.
