Married At First Sight By Gu Lingfei

Chapter 606
Zachary, on the other hand, became more addicted and fell deeper in love with
Serenity.
Ring ring ring...
Zachary’s phone rang again.
He thought it was Serenity, but then he saw the caller ID and it was Duncan.
“Duncan.”
Zachary leaned back on the black swivel chair and asked indifferently, “Why are
you calling me so late at night?”
“There’s something important I need to tell you. Do you know that your wife has
an aunt? It’s Mrs. Stone. It turns out that the sister Mrs. Stone has been looking
for is your mother-in-law.”
Duncan was not as gossipy as Josh, but he loved to watch drama and gloat on
the sidelines.
He just felt that he should relay this news to his best friend.
“Stone Group and York Corporation have always been at odds.
Clive and you will never appear at the same place together. The relationship
between the two of you is completely frozen... I just thought of something.”
Duncan muttered in hindsight, “When you treated Clive to that meal back then,
did you already know that your wife was Mrs.

Stone’s niece? Is that why you tried patching up your relationship with Clive in
advance?”
Zachary was a little embarrassed and angry that his thoughts were read by his
best friend. Fortunately, Duncan was thousands of miles away and did not know
how he was feeling right now.
“I was in a good mood that day, and Clive rarely takes his clients to Wiltspoon
Hotel for a meal, so I bought them lunch. I just wanted them to know that our
Wiltspoon Hotel is worthy of its name.
That’s all.
“I’m not a god. How could I know in advance that my mother-in- law is the sister
who Mrs. Stone has been looking for? I only found out just now when I asked
Serenity.”
That was also true.
However, he had a hunch that Mrs. Stone’s sister was his mother- in-law who
died long ago.
That was why he generously invited Clive and his party to a meal when he met
Clive that day.
“What are you going to do now that you know?”
Duncan asked with concern, “Are you going to reconcile with the Stones?”
“Serenity and Mrs. Stone are aunt and niece. They have no influence on the

decision-making of York Corporation. A great man cannot brook a rival. Between
York Corporation and Stone Group, only one of us will remain standing.”
Duncan paused before adding. “You’re a businessman through and through.
You only talk about profit and never about feelings.”
Zachary said faintly, “In the business world of deceit, feelings will only be used
by the opponent. You’ll be swallowed and everything will go up in smoke.”
That was unless the Stone Group intended to make peace with him.
Only when both sides took a step back would it be possible to ease relations.
“Elisa has been infatuated with you for years. If she finds out about your
relationship with Serenity and with her explosive personality, will your wife be in
trouble?”
Duncan felt that this matter was a concern.
“They’ve become cousins, so maybe she won’t do anything to your wife, but
your wife will definitely feel as if she robbed her cousin’s beloved man. She’ll
kick you away.”

Zachary paused before saying, “Duncan Lewis, can you speak a little more
tactfully?”
He was overly straightforward.
Duncan laughed. “You know I’ve always been like this. I don’t like to beat

around the bush. Do you think I can talk in circles like Josh?
“Serenity and her sister are strong-natured. If she finds out the truth... I’m
having a headache on your behalf just thinking about it.”
Zachary’s expression darkened as he said, “There’s no need for that. I can
handle it myself.”
“That’s good. I won’t be able to help you even if you ask for my help. You can
call me if it’s a fight, but I’m not good at dealing with matters involving emotions.
“Zachary, you can’t deal with emotional problems either, right?
You’re no better than I am in that regard.”
Zachary was speechless.
Duncan had zero tact. His words were stabbing Zachary like a knife.
“By the way, your sister-in-law was in trouble again. Her former mother-in-law
and sister-in-law came to the office to find her, and they had a fight. I guess it
won’t be easy for your sister-in-law to live the quiet life she wants. Now that the
Brown family knows that Mrs. Stone is your sister-in-law’s aunt, I don’t know
what kind of mishap they’ll be up to in the future.”
Zachary’s voice instantly turned cold. “Serenity didn’t tell me a word about that!”
She did not treat him as her family!
