Zachary accepted the bag from Mr. Chaplin.
Inside contained two red brocade boxes.
He took one box out. Josh was not stupid and knew that Grandma May retrieved this from her private treasury to please Serenity.
He envied Zachary for having a good grandmother who was worried about his marriage.
Grandma May was the pillar of the York family and was respected by everyone. No one would stop her if she arranged for a sudden marriage like the one between Zachary and Serenity. Josh wanted a handful of grandmothers like that.
Unfortunately, his grandmother passed away. “I‘ll go back to work.” Josh did not want to be further provoked by luis best friend again. There were some things that should not be envied.
He stood up and left the office with Mr. Chaplin. Zachary looked at the two diamond rings that his nana had sent him and took out his cell phone to call her. “Nana, I‘ll buy these two rings from you. How can I accept wedding rings as a gift from you?” Grandma May laughed. “Sure. Since you‘re my grandson, I‘ll give you a discount. One diamond ring costs one buck, so you can pay me two bucks in total.” “Nana!” Zachary shouted in exasperation, “If Seren discovers the price, she would suspect I bought knock–offs from a roadside stall in the night market.” Grandma May was amused and said, “Fine. Look at the rings yourself and give me however much you want. I‘m fine with anything.” When she were to be promoted to become a great–grandmother in the future, the money given to her by her grandson would be rewarded to Serenity.
