Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 5608

Now that Laurence and Noelle had officially become a couple, everyone in Havenmill knew about their relationship. Roxy practically went mad with jealousy.

It was not that she loved Laurence. They were from the same family, so marriage had never been an option. She had deliberately pursued him before just to get closer.

Even so, she could not help but feel jealous. Noelle was just a bodyguard. What made her worthy of Laurence's love? What gave her the right to be the lady of the Longbottom family?

Roxy used to be the most privileged lady in Havenmill, but after Laurence took power, she became an ordinary "Ms. Longbottom". Not only had her status plummeted, but there were plenty of people waiting to see her family make a fool of themselves. Some were even wondering when her family would be wiped out.

Unwilling to just accept her fate, she was determined to change things around. Thus, she set her sights on Cian Yarrow.

She had known him for more than ten years, but she never considered him a suitable match before. She believed she would eventually become the matriarch of one of the most powerful families in the city, and that her father would eventually become the head of the Longbottoms.

If she had known things would turn out this way, she would have started dating Cian long ago. Then, she would not have to chase him so desperately now, only to receive such a lukewarm response.

At Longbottom Corporation, Laurence was busy reviewing documents in his office while Noelle sat quietly on the sofa. She was examining the ledgers she had not finished the night before.

She had already marked every suspicious entry and sent people out to gather evidence.

If she was going to take action, she wanted everyone to be thoroughly convinced. She would make sure that Stuart had nothing to say.

The office phone rang.

Laurence pressed the speaker button, and the deep voice of his new male secretary came through. "Mr. Longbottom, Mr. Yarrow is here."

Darien Yarrow was the chairman of Yarrow Corp, the fifth most powerful business family in Havenmill. His children had not been particularly capable and struggled to preserve what their predecessors had built.

Fortunately, his grandchildren had finally grown up, and a few of them turned out to be promising.
