“Could you give Jasmine and Mr. Bucham a little push? Jasmine mentioned that she feels Mr. Bucham is out of her league after learning about his position in the company.”
Zachary responded, “That’s really up to them. They need to determine how they wish to move forward in their relationship. Our role is just to arrange the initial date; everything else is their responsibility.”
Serenity smiled and said, “You make a good point. We’ll see how their relationship unfolds, but I think they look great together. I’m rooting for them to succeed.”
Jasmine wasn’t particularly interested in Josh.
He was likely too busy with work to make the first move.
He did call Jasmine and encouraged her to drink more water while she was sick.
“I have another candidate to introduce to Ms. Sox if she doesn’t feel a connection with Mr. Bucham,” Zachary said.
Serenity asked, a bit concerned, “Is this person better than Mr. Bucham?”
“You could say that, but Mr. Bucham would definitely win in a fistfight. This candidate isn’t great at self-defense, so he travels with a security team. He’s an important client of my company. The downside is that he lives quite far from Wiltspoon.”
The person Zachary had in mind was Remy.
Remy was the younger brother of Ben Young-Johnson, the CEO of FC & Co. in Annenburg.
He managed the Wiltspoon branch of FC & Co. and, having interacted with him numerous times in business, Zachary considered Remy to be a reliable man.
“Jasmine won’t be interested in him if he’s not from Wiltspoon. Given that you mentioned he has a security team, he must be wealthy. Jasmine isn’t keen on marrying into a rich and powerful family.”
Zachary smiled and replied, “He is definitely wealthy. If Ms. Sox won’t consider the rich and influential, we can drop it. Interestingly, many people view Ms. Sox as an heiress because her family owns considerable assets.”
“Soxes possess wealth that many will never experience, even after a lifetime of hard work.” The locals who became rich from the property boom did not view themselves as wealthy. They continued to live like everyday people, commuting to work on bicycles or e-bikes and taking on menial jobs such as cleaning and patrolling. They preferred casual attire and often went out in loafers.
