Chapter 657
Zachary terminated the call right away.
Despite being hung up on, Clive was not angry at all.
He smirked coldly. “You can refuse to acknowledge me as your cousin, Zachary, but I’ll get my way one
way or another.”
Alice was pouring him a ss of water when she heard hisment. She said, “You’re now family.
What do you mean get your way? Whatever reason he keeps his identity a secret, Zachary is
Serenity’s husband.”
I’ve been his rival for many years, and none of us ever get the upper hand. Now that I have the chance
to climb over his head, I got to make use of the opportunity.”
Clive grabbed the ss and took a couple of gulps. “Zachary wound me up badly. I must get my
payback when he returns from his business trip. I’ll contact Serenity toe along when he buys me
dinner. I bet he’ll have to call me his cousin then.
“Honey, I’m walking on air just thinking about my nemesis bowing to me because I’m the older cousin.”
“I think you’ve gone mad.”

Alice replied amusedly. “He’s your peer. Are you going to force him to acknowledge you if he doesn’t
want. to?”
I’ll give him a hard time and call him rude in front of Serenity if he doesn’t acknowledge me as the older
cousin.”
Alice was speechless.
She could imagine her man having a discreet showdown with Zachary
Zachary was a little worried at first now that Clive saw through his cover. After hanging Zachary fell
deep into contemtion and soon felt at rest.
Clive was furious because he felt sorry for his sister and not Serenity. on Clive’s call,
Before Elisa could let go of her feelings for Zachary, Zachary did not have to worry about Clive telling
Serenity the truth about him.
Not only that, but Clive would also figure out ways to keep Zachary’s identity under wraps.
Zachary could unt his affection for Serenity before Clive too.
Once he was back from the business trip, Zachary would be on his best behavior during the dinner with
Clive in case thetter might try to start something and make him look bad in front of Serenity because
he was Serenity’s cousin.
As for admitting Clive to be the older cousin…
It was not like Clive would bite him if Zachary refused to acknowledge him.
Uff! Zachary felt like he was between a rock and a hard ce.
Rubbing his temples, Zachary was at his physical limit and called someone to make a quick trip to the
pharmacy for him.
Back at the study on the second floor of the Buchams‘ residence, the head of the household was busy
at work.
Josh’s torso was against the desk as he leaned in to read the text messages sent in the group chat. It
was an arrangement to protect Zachary’s privacy. The head of the family was informing everybody
what. information about Zachary could and could not be released.
All credit should go to the head of the Bucham household that Zachary’s privacy was protected from
everybody including the press.
“Julian.”
“Speak.”
“You’re amazing. I think the public must be curious about you.”
The head of the household lifted his head and nced at Josh before uttering, “Didn’t Zachary arrange
a blind date for you? You could’ve used your weekend to woo your wifey instead of watching me work
here. I asked you to help me, but you said you prefer to ve away at York Corporation.”
Josh replied, “I invited my future brother–inw to dinner tonight.”
Julian rolled his eyes. “You should be taking Ms. Sox out to dinner if you want to win her heart, not her
brother. Look at you. When are you going to say goodbye to singlehood?”
“I’ll win her heart through my brother–inw.”
“That’s a silly move. You should start with your mother–inw, no, future father–inw. It’s easy with
your mother–inw. Mothers–inw tend to warm up to sons–inw rather quickly.”
Pursing his lips, Josh answered with a smile, “I’ll build a rtionship with all of them. Jasmine will have
no choice but to fall into my arms when the whole family pressures her.”
“Knock, knock.”
Someone was at the door.
