“Seren!”
Callum stepped in front of the sisters.
He addressed Liberty, saying, “My brother is on his way to the office now, Liberty. This is between them. Let them talk it out and find a way to move forward, okay?”
Liberty retorted, “Mr. Callum, Seren doesn’t want to speak with your brother right now. Please step aside. The Yorks are beyond our reach!”
Still holding her sister’s hand, Liberty maneuvered around Callum to leave.
Callum anxiously followed while dialing his brother.
“Callum,” came Zachary’s husky voice from the other end.
“Are you here yet, Zachary? Serenity is about to leave, and I can’t hold her much longer.”
Zachary replied, sounding worried, “Just a few more minutes. Callum, don’t let her leave, no matter what.”
Callum grimaced and responded, “I can’t keep her here much longer, Zachary. You should have called the rest of the family for backup.”
His strength alone was insufficient.
Zachary snapped, “Just hold on a few more minutes!”
He then hung up.
It wasn’t that Zachary didn’t want to involve his other brothers and cousins, but they worked far from York Corporation, and by the time they arrived, it would be too late. That’s why Zachary had to rely solely on Callum.
Callum, along with Josh and now Duncan, was on Zachary’s side. They did everything they could to keep Serenity near the office building for as long as possible.
Fortunately, Zachary arrived just in time.
His convoy pulled in as Serenity was getting into her car.
The approaching Rolls Royce reminded Serenity of the one she frequently saw in Brynfield. It must belong to Zachary.
When she asked him about it, Zachary claimed it belonged to a fellow resident.
He was lying to her every time.
It was the second of the day. Among Zachary’s security team, a familiar figure stood out. Upon closer inspection, she recognized him as Jim, the hired driver. However, Jim was not just any hired driver; he was not merely someone who ran errands for the right price. Jim was Zachary’s personal bodyguard!
