Nothing good ever came out of Zachary’s mouth, to be honest.
Perhaps Zachary should show his apology through his actions.
“What’s the matter? Were you wrong about your wife? What did you do to warrant an apology gift?”
Josh was in the mood for gossip.
“None of your business. Get back to work. You’re going to be speaking with Mr. Williams about the partnership tonight. I'll be busy tonight.”
Zachary had dinner plans with his wife at his sister-in-law’s.
“Why are you busy? Where are you going?”
“You should know that a married man shouldn’t spend all his time on work, or else it’ll give his wife an excuse to cheat on him.”
Josh, “…”
He was speechless.
At least Josh found out that the work was pushed to him so his boss could spend some time with his wife.
Zachary sure thought he was all that just because he was married.
Josh could get married too. He could then skip social engagements and overtime to go home to his wife.
Alas, he did not have a girlfriend. There was no one in the picture even if Josh wanted to tie the knot any time soon.
After taking the blow, Josh dejectedly retreated.
Under the same blue sky, different individuals were engaging in different activities at various places.
