Chapter 755


    “It’s better you tell her the truth than she realizes it or hears it from someone else.”


    Ben had been there.


    Jane might not have reacted so strongly if he had been honest with her.


    It meant that he trusted her to bare his soul to her.


    Since Jane got the news from Yves‘ mouth, Jane believed Ben had no confidence in her and walked on


    eggshells around her. Plus, his mother–inw was convinced there was a social gap between them.


    Worried Jane would be treated like dirt by the Johnsons, his mother–inw was once against the


    marriage.


    “She’ll take it that you trust her if ites from your mouth, but the moment she finds out from


    someone else… She’ll be angrier by the minute, thinking the whole world but she knows about it. The


    deceit won’t sit well with her. In fact, she’ll conclude it to be ack of trust and confidence.


    “Hell hath no fury like a woman scorned.”


    With Serenity’s tempering into mind, Zachary timidly uttered, “I sounded her out to see under what


    circumstances she would leave me. She said she’ll go for divorce if I ever cheat, abuse, or lie to her


    multiple times.


    “I started off with a lie, but I had to make up more stories to cover up for that one lie. I have lied to her


    multiple times. I even told her I was away on business to attend your wedding.”


    Ben replied, “I’d still rmending clean to her. I can’t guarantee how your wife would react to it


    though. We both might be quick to sign the marriage papers, but our situations are different.


    “Mr. York, you can’t escape what’s toe. You might as well face it head–on.”

    Zachary fell silent.


    “Maybe you can go back and have a think about it. You can pick a good time and date and be truthful


    to her in a different way.”


    After much thought, Zachary thanked Ben. “Thank you for your advice, Mr. Young- Johnson. I’ll


    examine my options.”


    Ben uttered with a smile, “We’re all human. I’m sure your sincerity will touch her heart. Besides, you’re


    already a couple, and you’ve developed feelings for each other. You’re conflicted now, but she’ll feel


    the same regardless of her decisions when she finds out who you are.


    It was easier to fall in love than out of it.


    Rarely anyone was a master of their own emotions when it came to love.


    Zachary expressed his gratitude to Ben once more.


    “Don’t mention it, Mr. York. You can talk to me if you encounter any more problems. Although my


    wedding was yesterday, I have gotten the marriage license for a while now. I’ve been through it, so I


    have more experience than you newlyweds.


    “I hope you can bring along your wife next time, Mr. York. I believe my wife will be happy to have a


    friend.”


    Zachary knew a little about Jane’s history. Jane was friendly and did not put on airs like the missus of a


    wealthy family. It was good for Serenity to make friends with someone like Jane.


    “I’ll bring my wife for a visit if an opportunity arises.”


    Ben remarked with a grin, “You can make opportunities happen, Mr. York.”


    An opportunity would not exist if Mr. York did not wish to make the trip.


    Zachary rose to his feet. “I’ve been a bother today, Mr. Young–Johnson. I’ll take you around Wiltspoon


    and buy you dinner if you ever go there.”


    Ben looked at his brother and said teasingly, “You can buy me dinner anytime anywhere, but if you


    know a nice girl, please set Remy up for a date. He’s flying out of the radar by permanently staying in


    Wiltspoon, and I rarely fly there. I don’t have many connections to introduce anyone to him.


    “The senior of my family is worried if he’ll ever meet a girl.”


    Remy was neck–deep into the gossip until he was suddenly pulled into the picture. His brother even


    asked Zachary to set him up on a date. Remy jumped in. “Ben, Lee and Tim are single and older than I


    am. You should start with them, not me.”


    Ben answered, “They’re in Annenburg, so we don’t have trouble pushing them to take the major step.


    You, on the other hand, are heading back to Wiltspoon after New Year. We know nothing about your


    social life there. That’s why we need to seek Mr. York’s help with it.


    “Tim’s out anyway. He’s got his eye on a girl, and you’ll probably get yourself another sister–inw in


    no time.”
