Love at First Novel by Gu Lingfei

Chapter 806
“Zachary’s not in the office? He hasn’t come in today?”
Serenity was in disbelief.
Where was he if not the office?
Did he not have the interview in his office?
Serenity recalled the background of his interview was fancy. However, it was not a familiar place to her. She had never seen that
kind of furnishing.
She thought that was his office, and she had never stepped into his office before.
Serenity had been to York Corporation multiple times, but Zachary had not brought her to his real office. He lied to her, saying
that everybody worked at cubicle desks.
If she remembered correctly, Callum’s office had an office door sign that read COO.
The whole family was in on it!
Serenity scowled at the thought that Zachary had her fooled for a long time.
“Ms. Hunt, Mr. York hasn’t been in the office today.”
The receptionist, who poured Serenity a glass of water, added, “Do you need to speak with Mr. York? Maybe you can call him?”
Serenity grabbed the glass of water.
She came in a rush and raced all the way here. Now that she was seated, the thirst started creeping in.
Serenity finished the glass of water before asking, “Is Josh around? I want to see him.”
Zachary talked about riding on Josh’s coattails to thrive in the company. That was bullsh*t! It was the other way around!
Josh was the CEO’s administrative executive, which meant he was Zachary’s administrative executive. Josh knew Zachary was
married all along.

The receptionists exchanged looks, getting an idea why Serenity was here.
“I’ll ask and check if Mr. Bucham has time right now, Ms. Hunt.”
One of the receptionists contacted Josh’s secretary on the intercom while the other suggested Serenity try Zachary on the phone
instead.
Serenity was without a word.
Her phone had rung throughout her journey here, but she was not in the mood to take any calls. The phone later stopped ringing,
probably because its battery died. Her phone did not have much battery life left, and she did not have time to plug in the charger.
News that Zachary was Mr. York really messed up her head.
With rage sweeping over her, Serenity ran out of her shop and put the pedal to the metal, only to be told Zachary was not in the
office.
Since Zachary was not around, she could get some answers from Josh.
“Get Callum to see me if Mr. Bucham isn’t free.”
Callum was Zachary’s brother, so she could question him all the same.
The receptionist on calling duty put down the phone and courteously said to Serenity, “Ms. Hunt, Mr. Bucham will see you
upstairs.”
She then walked around the desk, leading Serenity to the lift. After pressing the button on the lift, the receptionist stayed with
Serenity instead of letting her go alone.
Once they arrived at the desired floor, the receptionist brought Serenity to Josh’s secretary and personally handed her over to
the secretary before turning to leave.
“Please come with me, Ms. Hunt.”
Josh’s secretary remained respectful toward Serenity.
They approached the administrative executive’s office and knocked on the door. After getting a response from Josh on the other
side, the secretary opened the door for Serenity and beckoned her to go inside.

“Ms. Hunt.”
Josh was going to ditch work to deliver flowers to Jasmine at the shop and catch the moment of truth between Zachary and
Serenity, but the lady of the hour herself showed up at the office instead.
