Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

Chapter 220
Serenity had been careful in spending money.
Unless she was buying large pieces of furniture, she would spend no more than two hundred dollars a day.
As time passed, Zachary did not bother to guess.
Since he had given her the money, she was free to spend it.
He was angry at her and deleted her from his WhatsApp, but he did not want to take back the money he gave her to spend.
Anyhow, he would bear with her until the agreement expired.
He would not breach the contract prematurely, since he would have to compensate her with a large number of liquidated
damages.
Ten minutes later, his phone received another expenditure notification.
This time, the total was more than twenty thousand.
Of course, this bit of money was nothing for Mr. York.
He just wanted to know why the woman was suddenly spending so much money.
Was she buying gold? Or did she get angry after she found out that he deleted her, so she deliberately went shopping to spend
his money? Sure enough, Zachary was good at guessing.
He was right.
There were still ten minutes before the office hours were over, but the meeting had come to an end, so Zachary simply
adjourned.
In the past, he was always the first to leave the conference room after the meeting.
The senior management would then follow him out.
This time, Zachary sat in his seat, looking at something on his cell phone.

He did not take the lead in leaving the conference room this time.
The others looked at each other.
No one dared to be the first to stand up and leave.
After a while, Zachary finally noticed something was off.
He looked up and asked in a low voice, “Don’t you want to get off work?” The others thought, ‘We do, but we don’t dare to move.’
In the end, it was Callum who took the lead to leave the room.
Callum was the second to Zachary in the York family.
Since he had taken the lead, the senior management grew bold enough to hurry out of the conference room one after another.
Josh did not leave.
Since he was Zachary’s administrative executive, he was seated the closest to Zachary in every meeting.
The others might not notice Zachary’s change, but he did.
When they were the only ones left in the conference room, he asked with concern, “Boss, what’s wrong with you?” Zachary put
down his phone again and leaned back.
He stared at Josh for a long time before saying, “I fought with Serenity.” “Why?” Before Zachary could answer, Josh continued, “1
felt something was up with you.
Your mood changed after lunch on Saturday.
Are you finally admitting that you fought with Serenity? Tell me the reason and I’ll try to analyze it for you.” “What's there to
analyze? I saw her eating with another man with my own eyes.
I saw her smiling and giving that man food.
Even if I’m only her husband in name, she doesn’t even treat me that well.” Josh asked, “She’s having an affair?” “Tt’s an
emotional affair.” Josh opened his mouth to say something, but fora moment, he did not know what to say to comfort his boss
and best friend.

Whether it was a man or a woman, they would be furious if they found out that their significant other was cheating on them.
It was natural to act impulsively.
Zachary was a prideful person.
He was used to being high above and dominating everything.
More than that, he was used to everyone bowing to him.
Now that Serenity betrayed him, even if it was just an emotional affair, it was a great blow to Zachary.
The main point was that Zachary’s ego could not take it!
