The whole of Wiltspoon knew Zachary was crazy for his wife.
It would be the death of Zachary if anything were to happen to Serenity.
“Do you think Mrs. Newman is in on it?” Serenity’s first thought was Mrs. Newman.
After a brief silence, Zachary said, “I can’t tell for sure, but I told Josh to keep an eye on Mr. Newman and his wife after your argument with Ms. Carrie. There’s no unusual activity on their end.
“Seren, we can only know through an investigation if the mastermind is after you or me.”
Zachary put Sonny next to him and pulled Serenity into his arms. Locking Serenity in his embrace, he vowed solemnly, “Don’t be scared. I’m here for you. I won’t let anyone harm you.”
Lifting her chin, Serenity looked into his eyes with worry. “If they’re out to get you… You must be careful, Zachary.”
“Unfortunately, I hold a status that tends to attract danger. I’m used to it. Don’t worry. I’ll be fine.”
The York family sheltered their descendants from the outside world until they were ready to enter the business world. The world had no idea what their names were.
The purpose of doing so was to protect the York boys against malice.
The York boys took up the art of self-defense since they were young to train their bodies and defend themselves.
Although they would not be caught dead without their bodyguards, there was still that 1% chance they might find themselves alone and needing to fend for themselves.
Serenity rested her head against his chest. “I hope it’s only an accident and nothing more to it.”
If it was simply an accident, they could call themselves unlucky to be eyed by kidnappers.
Should there be a mastermind involved, incidents would only keep coming.
“It was quite a commotion today. Even if it was a scheme, the mastermind wouldn’t try anything so soon.”
Sonny, who was left alone and ignored by his aunt and uncle, nudged Serenity away from Zachary. As Serenity straightened her back and watched in confusion, the boy climbed onto Zachary’s lap and sat down.
