Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 2274

“Ms. Stone, um… What's going on? I kept it a secret. How did it get leaked?”

Elisa angrily uttered, “How would I know? You’re the heir of the Buchams, for Heaven’s sake. How am I supposed to know when you don’t? Mr. Bucham, you started it and dragged me into this. I don’t care where you are and what you’re doing right now, but you must come here. Stat!”

Knowing he was at fault, Julian embarrassedly said, “Don’t be mad, Ms. Stone. It’s my fault, and I got you into this. I’ll head there right away to explain to my parents. Please let me know if you ever need my help. I will assist you unconditionally.”

Julian, who was in the wrong, made a promise to Elisa as the last thing he wanted was for Elisa to hold a grudge.

“I’ll keep that in mind. I won’t be shy to ask when I need you.”

Elisa then hung up.

Serenity, who had heard the whole phone conversation, waited until Elisa tossed her phone aside before approaching her. She picked up Elisa's phone and placed it back in front of her.

“Wow, you’re mad. You nearly broke your phone.”

“Julian will have to compensate me for a new phone if it breaks. What the hell was he doing? Why did he get me involved?”

Elisa got a call from her mother to hurry home. After she inquired, she realized that Walter knew about Julian's attempts to woo her.

Worried that his son would remain single forever, Walter took the psychic's word and searched for suitable girls to marry. For a while, Walter gave Julian pictures and arranged dates, but nothing came to fruition.

The higher society of Wiltspoon was aware that Walter was all out to find a wife for his son. He would arrange dates for Julian to meet with girls who could hold a conversation with him, but everyone knew about Julian's illness. The ladies might be pleased with Julian's looks, status, and wealth, but no one wanted to be in a sexless marriage.

Hence, Julian never advanced further than the first dates.

“Julian doesn't have romantic feelings for me, and neither do I for him. I have no idea what he's up to. I asked him why he keeps sending me flowers, but he wouldn't tell me. He's definitely making Remy jealous.”

“Elisa, I’ll be honest. Aunt Audrey has something to do with it.”

Elisa looked at Serenity suspiciously, “So you know the truth, Seren?”

“I found out not too long ago, but I didn’t know how to bring it up to you. I’m sorry.”

“Just tell me. I won’t get angry. How is my mom involved in this? But Julian did talk about my mom sometimes.”

Serenity hesitated for a bit before responding, “Aunt Audrey doesn’t want you to marry and live in another city. She wants to break you and Remy up and set you up with Andrew, Zachary’s cousin.”
