Ever since Serenity got pregnant, Zachary had the urge to be with his wife 24/7.It was Serenity who stopped him from clinging to her.She had work to do.Since Serenity was working while pregnant, Zachary had no excuse to skip work. He had to earn money to spend on the baby.Sonny said it was a boy.If that were true, then Zachary would have to earn more money for his son to be able to own a house and a car in the future. Zachary did not lack money. In fact, he could confidently say that the one thing he had the most was money.Of course, no one would say no to more money. The amount he earned was enough to last his son for a lifetime.The money could be inherited by Zachary’s grandchildren and future generations to come. He hoped the York family would still hold its position as the wealthiest family in Wiltspoon for a long time.“Is Alex going to work next year?”Serenity had always felt that Alex was still very young.“He looks like a high schooler. His baby face makes h
Serenity said, “If you’re this nervous now, will you drive off to the hospital by yourself, without me, when I’m in labor like Elisa did when Alice’s water broke? Zachary replied in a serious tone, “Don’t compare me to Elisa, okay? I won’t do such a thing. I may get nervous, but I won’t forget about you. I want to be in the delivery room with you.”“You will?”“That’s right. I’ll be there with you. No matter what happens, I’ll be by your side.”Serenity smiled sweetly. “Thank you, Zack.“Thank you for loving me and being so nice to me.”Zachary corrected her again. “Call me babe. I like it better that way. I should be the one thanking you for carrying our children. You’re a great hero in our family.”“Let’s stop thanking each other.”Serenity snuggled into his embrace again with a grin and hugged him tight. Happiness filled her to the brim. Zachary used to be a man of few words, yet he became someone who could utter such loving words to her. He changed so much for her
“No. The baby is fine.”Serenity’s in-laws were being overprotective of her. It also meant that they were concerned about her and the baby. “That’s good. I’m just scared of hearing that something has happened to you.”Tania was relieved. She said, “I have a friend whose daughter-in-law is pregnant too. She was five months along, but the baby died in the womb the day before yesterday. She was utterly devastated. The baby boy had been developing well. They had no idea why he died. “Enough with that. Our Seren and her baby are healthy and fine.”Tania was so worried because she had heard about the story of her friend’s daughter-in-law.“The baby died in the womb at five months?”Tania held Serenity’s hand. They walked into the house together. Zachary was left behind. He was used to his parents revolving around Serenity whenever they returned to the manor. Even the baby in Serenity’s womb was more important to them than he was. ‘Mom and Dad couldn’t have become grandparents
Tania added, “The York family hasn’t had a daughter for generations. If we get a baby girl, we’ll shower her with love. I hope she can live a carefree life and do whatever she likes. I don’t wish to place a heavy burden on her.“She’ll have many brothers to take up those responsibilities in her stead. I can guarantee that she’ll never have to lift a finger.”After thinking about it, Serenity smiled. “You’re right. I guess, in this sense, it’s better to have a son shoulder the burden of the heir.”She was satisfied after knowing Tania’s opinion. Serenity did not want her daughter to bear the heavy responsibility either. Well, she would have to give birth to a daughter before thinking about that. Sonny kept saying that the baby in her womb was his little brother. Her instincts told her Sonny was right too.Even if she would come to have both sons and daughters, the daughter would probably only arrive at her second or third pregnancy. “Is Dad not home?” Serenity asked when she
Did he gain weight? No way. Zachary worked out every day and stayed on the same diet he had even before his marriage. He definitely did not put on weight. His weight was usually maintained at a certain range. “I did take some of Serenity’s supplements… But that was because she couldn’t finish them and insisted I had some.”Zachary wanted to say that he would never take his wife’s supplements. However, he dared not say it when he remembered that he had been helping her finish her supplements every day. Anyway, he was more concerned about his appearance. He quickly asked Serenity, “Did I gain weight, Seren? Do I have a pot belly now?”He pinched his stomach. Serenity doubled over with laughter. Her husband’s reaction amused her. It turned out that he cared a lot about his image. “You didn’t gain weight or have a pot belly, honey. Your body is still the best, and you’ve maintained it well. I’m telling the truth. Mom was just teasing you.”It was hilarious.Zachary
Even though there was a nanny and a butler at home, a mother would still have to devote her attention to caring for her child. Sometimes, this would keep her so busy her husband would be neglected.By then, there would be little chance for the couple to have time alone together like they did now. Tania understood this from experience.“Alright. Once winter break starts, I’ll bring Sonny back for a couple of days.” Serenity could not bear to ruin Tania’s joy, so she decided to bring Sonny back to visit before their week-long trip to Annenburg. They would be back by Christmas.“Just for a couple of days? Is Sonny going to Jensburg?” Tania asked in concern. “Jensburg is so cold, and it snows often. Will Sonny be able to bear it? He might find it fun if it’s only for a short visit once in a while, but he might catch a cold if he stays there every day. It’s hard for us to adapt to the bitter cold over there.”The temperature in Wiltspoon usually dropped around ten degrees and everyone w
Serenity replied, “Alright. We’ll leave Sonny to you when the time comes. We’ll come back first to finish up our work, and when it’s almost Christmas, we’ll take another trip to pick you guys up.”The elder couples of the two families were retired and bored. If they were staying together, they would at least have a fun time even just playing cards. If they talked to Ben about this, Ben would surely agree.Tania happily headed for the kitchen to get the cook to make more of Serenity’s favorite dishes, making sure her son’s palate was taken care of at the same time. When she returned from the kitchen, Grandma May got home. She immediately abandoned her friends and returned to the manor with Sam when she heard Zachary and Serenity were back to see her.“Nana,” Serenity greeted sweetly.Grandma May smiled back kindly. After they hugged, she pulled Serenity over to the sofa to sit down. Tania personally prepared some fruits and various types of snacks for Serenity. Before Serenity got p
Grandma May laughed and said, “Now that’s the Audrey Fisher I know. She should take back whatever should have been hers in the first place. She doesn’t need a reason! Even if Mr. Patrick doesn’t have much evidence regarding Tiara and her family’s deaths, he’s one of the witnesses. His statement is proof too. If Tiara wasn’t murdered, why was he being hunted?“Doc and the rest were the ones who saved him. Even though they’ve been retired for decades, they’re still talked about, and with Dr. Carden’s reputation, they’ll return to the public’s eye and remind everyone of their past.“With their testimony to prove that Mr. Patrick was being pursued and was seriously injured as a result of that, everyone will believe every single word he says. Now, all Mr. Patrick has to do is take good care of his health. It’ll be great if he can go with you guys to confront Belinda, otherwise, just get him to record a video and the other old fellows to accompany you guys as backup. Belinda might deny it
