“Me too. I’ll like it whether it’s a girl or a boy. Of course, I’ll be happier if we have a girl.”Zachary grinned and watched his wife finish the spicy fries.After saying that, he felt like his words would make Serenity feel pressured to have a daughter, so he quickly added, “Seren, you don’t have to feel pressured to have a daughter. Both Nana and my mom didn’t get girls like they wanted.“Since they failed to have a daughter, they have no right to pressure you.”Serenity laughed. “I’m not pressured. The elders in your family aren’t picky either. They’re happy enough that I can give you a baby.”She did not get pregnant for a year after they married.Everyone was worried that she was sterile.The York family went from wanting her to give birth to a daughter to just getting pregnant.Now that she was pregnant, it meant that the young couple was healthy. The elders were very happy with that and would not be picky about the baby’s sex.Zachary also laughed, thinking that what

Serenity hurried Zachary while grinning.Zachary watched her fasten her seatbelt before he started driving.He drove around leisurely before returning to their house in Brynfield.Although it had been ages since the couple stayed at their Brynfield home, Mrs. Lane would come over daily to clean the house. She would also look after the plants that Serenity grew on the balcony.Upon entering the house, Serenity switched on the lights. Then, she headed straight to the swing on the balcony and sat on the swing. Sighing, she said, “This is the swing I’ve been dreaming of.”The hilltop villa had a swing too but what she missed about the house was the swing. Perhaps this was where Zachary and her relationship developed.After all, it was not the same.Zachary poured her a glass of warm water. After that, he switched on the lights on the balcony and sat beside her. Once he lifted his head, he saw the two bamboo poles used for drying clothes.He remembered that Serenity went all the w

That night, the couple was chatting till the wee hours. Eventually, Serenity was so tired that she fell into a slumber, which put an end to their conversation.The next day, Serenity was woken by some door knocks.The knocks were similar to those that happened at midnight a year ago. She was under the impression that Zachary would not return, so she locked the door. However, she ended up being awakened by Zachary’s knocks on the door.She opened her eyes, tilted her head, and looked at her side. Zachary was not around.She supposed that he had gotten up early to make her breakfast.The knocking soon ceased as the door was opened.Zachary opened the door, only to see his nana. He greeted her.Grandma May pushed him away and entered the house directly while asking, “Where’s Seren?”“She’s still sleeping. Did you spend the night traveling over here? You came at such an early hour. How do you know we’re here?”Upon learning that Serenity was still sleeping, Grandma May softened he

Just as Zachary entered the kitchen, someone knocked on the door.Grandma May said, “Carry on with your work. I’ll open the door.”She rose to her feet and opened the door, only to see Liberty standing there.Liberty was holding a few bags filled with groceries. One could tell that she had just bought them from the market.“Grandma May, when did you come over?” Liberty asked with a grin. She was delighted to see the old lady here.“I just got here. As soon as I heard Seren got pregnant, I hurried over as I was worried that Zachary didn’t know how to look after Seren. I can’t stop worrying unless I look after her personally.”Grandma May smiled cheerfully. She moved aside to let Liberty in. After checking out Liberty from head to toe, she praised with a smile, “Liberty, you’re looking prettier, and every movement of yours carries confidence.”“Thank you for the compliment, Grandma May. I was born with good looks.”Grandma May burst into laughter. “You’re right. Serenity and you

Liberty laughed before she replied to the old lady’s remark, “Grandma May, since you’re old, you’d better not be out and about. You should stay at home so that we can always see you, which will lessen our worries. They say elders are treasures, and you’re our treasure.”Grandma May grinned. “Even if you kick me out now, I won’t leave. I’ll stay here to take care of Seren’s basic needs. I’m worried my eldest grandson knows nothing.”Zachary’s handsome face reddened and said, “Nana, even though I have no experience, I’ll learn. Later, I’ll go to the bookstore to buy several books and read through them. Parents usually raise their first kid by referring to books.”When raising the second kid, parents could make use of their prior experience.It was not easy for Zachary and Serenity to have a child. For now, they would not think about getting another child. Zachary was hoping that Serenity could be as lucky as Jane to give birth to fraternal twins. In that case, his wife would only n

Liberty said, “It was through your Facebook story that I knew you both have come back. Zachary called me yesterday. After he ended the call, I finally digested his message. He didn’t say you both were already back.“Aunt Audrey and I planned to head over to you, but we thought you were still in FC Manor, so we were thinking about visiting you in the Wildridge Manor after you returned.“We had something on yesterday, so I texted to ask you. You didn’t let me know that you’re back.”Caroline came yesterday.After Caroline left, Audrey used Caroline’s blood for DNA testing in the hospital.Serenity said awkwardly, “We were too happy to make things clear.”“You can talk to Grandma May. I’ll go to the kitchen and make breakfast with Zachary. What do you want to eat? I’ll prepare it for you. My cooking has improved a lot compared to before.”Liberty was in the food industry. No matter how busy she got, she must not stop cooking.Previously, all she could make was home-cooked meals. N

Zachary did not need Liberty’s help but Liberty was someone who could not sit idly, so she went ahead and helped out in the kitchen.While holding Serenity’s hand, Grandma May chatted with her.In the end, Grandma May said, “That psychic is brilliant. As I said, those words aren’t meant to just comfort you. Look, they’re true, aren’t they?”Serenity grinned and responded, “Yes, yes. The psychic is an expert. He’s skillful.” “Yeah. If he weren’t capable, I wouldn’t have trusted him.”Grandma May continued, “In fact, I believe in fate. I think fate determines the course of our lives. We can’t force things.“The Yorks have never done anything evil, and what’s more, you’re good-hearted. How could God possibly not grant you a child? Having said that, it depends on luck too. Just relax and nurture your baby. Don’t get overstressed.“Continue doing what you can do. I won’t demand you to stay at home and grow the baby without doing anything else. Most importantly, you should stay in a

Mrs. Lane said, “When I left yesterday, the door was locked. I was wondering why it’s not locked today. It turned out that you’re back, Missus.”The moment the pet dog saw Serenity, it wagged its tail and scurried toward her.Serenity said with a smile, “Snowball.”She touched Snowball’s head and it lay obediently by the side of her leg.“Mrs. Lane, we came back last night.”Mrs. Lane grinned and said, “Missus, you should’ve given me a call so I could prepare great food for you.”“No worries. This place is close to the market.”Mrs. Lane had been working for Serenity, so the both of them were close. Mrs. Lane knew that Serenity would not put on airs. Even if Serenity did, Mrs. Lane dared not act unscrupulously.When Mrs. Lane noticed that Zachary was busy preparing in the kitchen, she promptly went over to help him out.Zachary said, “I’ve cooked pulled pork with sauerkraut. Mrs. Lane, you don’t need to help out. You can go to the balcony and see to the plants. You’ve been loo
