Chapter 51 Surprising Zach 1

At Zach's house.

Victoria tried Xavier's number once more but the line could not go through. She was so annoyed with his unreliability. She grimaced when she thought of what he could possibly be doing. But it was odd, he never turned off his phone.

She shook her head and looked around at the preparations she had made: the banner with the words 'WORLD'S HOTTEST BACHELOR' printed in big and bold red letters, the wall and floor decorated with flower petals, balloons, glitter, LED lights, and anything that sparkles; the living room had been turned into a colorful runway.

She would surprise Zach with a wife hunting show with the girls showcasing their beauty and having little sessions to say something about themselves. The girls used a spare room to dress in outfits she had bought last minute although they were good ones.

But she had to admit, it was all coming together nicely. She had thought about how to ambush him from the moment she asked her friends for help in finding a daughter-in-law. All that was left was to find the women which she now has. She was sure her son would surely love this show. Which hot-blooded male wouldn't want to choose a wife in this style?

Rebecca had left for her home so Victoria overseered the work herself. Edmund had a worried expression on his face as he watched on.

"Madam...."

Victoria took in his worried expression and chuckled. She had an easy-going attitude with him mostly because she and Edmund were almost the same age. She slapped his shoulder ignoring the wincing man and said, "Relax Edmund! Don't be such a killjoy!"

Edmund suppressed the urge to rub his shoulder when he heard the sound of approaching cars from outside. Edmund peaked through the window and his eyes widened. Five cars drove into the compound and the one in the middle of the convoy drove to the house's entrance.

"Madam, master is here!"

"That can't be? Didn't Xavier say Zach works on Su-" she rushed over to peak behind the curtains. She gasped at what she saw and was instantly annoyed. "Damn that Xavier! He will pay for this!"

She turned and rushed towards the door. "Places people! He's here! Edmund make sure everything is in place! I'll try to stall."

Edmund did not want to have anything to do with this but it was Mrs. Frost. He could not go against her even if he wanted to.

Outside

The driver got the door for Zach and the man alighted from the car with his eyes glued to his phone. The meeting had run for three good hours and he immediately texted Amy. He had originally planned on working but after Xavier sent those texts, he thought to make a surprise visit and see what his mother was up to. The conversation between him and Amy had picked up from where they left off.
