There were no photos of Mr. York on the internet.
Mr. York was followed around by a security squad. Last time at the dinner party, there were so many tall and brawny bodyguards surr ounding him to the point where Serenity and Jasmine could not ca tch a glimpse of Mr. York's face even when they tiptoed.
Now knowing that Zachary who was a white— collar employee in York Corporation and yet he rarely saw Mr. Yor k, Serenity felt much better about herself.
Zachary did not carry on with the conversation.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtHe did not care what others say about him and acted according to his own wishes.
The couple chatted about Mr. York and returned to their block Zachary's bodyguards wandered nearby. Although they did not foll ow Zachary and Serenity closely, the guards were always watchin g the young couple and kept them within range of vision, wherever
they went.
Of course, Serenity did not know that she was being watched this whole time.
Serenity turned her head and inadvertently saw a bodyguard wan dering not far away. She thought he looked familiar, so she stopped and said to Zachary,” That man looks very familiar.” Zachary was stunned.
That was his bodyguard, Jim.
Jim was also surprised when he saw Serenity and Zachary lookin g right at him. He quickly regained his senses and walked over as if nothing was wrong.
“Aren't you the driver from that night?” Serenity recalled when she had seen him.
This familiar— looking man was the driver who sent Zachary home when Zachary was drunk that night.
“Yup, that's me,” Jim replied.
Serenity had good eyesight and memory.
“Do you also live around here?” “Yeah, but I'm renting the place. Usually I'd drive for the car— hailing service, and occasionally I'm a driver for hire when they're under the influence.” “Oh, okay.” Although Serenity remembered this driver, she was unf amiliar with him and only greeted him today since they had met previously. Sh e did not ponder on this matter.

In the future, Jim would have to be discreet while tailing Zachary in public so as not to be seen by Serenity because it would indirectly reveal his identity. If that happ ened, Jim would not be able to afford the consequences.
Back at home, Serenity sat on the swing out of habit while Zachar y went back to his room.
They did not talk again that night.
The next day, Zachary was about to leave when Serenity was just done making breakfast. “Mr. York, you haven't had breakfast yet.” Zachary tugged at his tie. Serenity noticed that was the tie she gift ed him.
She thought he would not like or even wear it. To her surprise, he wore it today.
“I have an early meeting today, and | can't be late. I'm afraid of get ting stuck in traffic, so | need to leave early. | won't have breakfast at home today and will order takeout later.” “I've already made it. Don't order takeout. I'll pack it for you so you can take it to your office.” Zachary hesitated for a while as he could not bear to reject her kin d offer, especially since her breakfasts made every day were delectable.
Serenity brought out an insulated lunch box and she filled it with s andwiches, a hard—
boiled egg, and some salad. She covered it before handing it over to Zachary. “Eat it when you get to the office. Don't work on an empty stomach.” “Okay.”
