Chapter 522 Forced Marriage

In the director's office of Fuller Group, the secretary's internal line rang through. "Mr. Fuller, Mr. Wilson has arrived in the reception room. Are you free now?"

Zachary glanced at his wristwatch and the schedule beside him, nonchalantly stating, "I have a meeting in ten minutes. Let him wait."

"All right."

After hanging up the phone, the secretary brewed two cups of coffee. With a professional smile on her face, she walked into the reception room, placing the coffee unhurriedly before Bjorn and Avril. In fluent Uprian, she said, "Mr. Wilson, please enjoy your coffee. Mr. Fuller is in a meeting. Please wait here for a moment."

Bjorn casually glanced at the coffee on the table, maintaining a calm demeanor. Hmph! You little rascal.

Avril then said sarcastically, "It's quite something that Mr. Charlton, as busy as he is, still manages to find time to meet us."

The secretary continued to smile, feigning ignorance. "I'll step out now. If you two need anything, just call for me."

Avril asked, "How much longer will the meeting last?"

"I'm not certain about that, but once the meeting concludes, Mr. Fuller will surely come to meet the two of you immediately."

Avril wanted to say something more, but Bjorn waved at the secretary. "Leave us."

The secretary, feeling as though pardoned, quickly stepped out of the reception room.

Avril voiced his frustration, saying, "Sir, he's definitely leaving us hanging on purpose. Why are we still sitting here?"

Zachary dared to disregard them so blatantly because they were in Jacaster.

Avril thought Zachary was merely kicking them when they were down.

If it had been in Fairlake, had Zachary dared to act this way, he would have shown him a thing or two.

Bjorn was unperturbed. He took a sip of his coffee and said, "That's exactly the reaction he's aiming for. If you really leave like this, you'll be playing right into his hands." Bjorn was there for Carol's sake.

Zachary was well aware that he had come for Carol, expressing his stance in this manner. He was saying that he wouldn't agree to let Harrietta return to Fairlake with him.
