“Josh!”After Mrs. Bucham called her son, she saw that he was pulling a young girl to hurry inside to shy away from her.Mrs. Bucham could not help but scurry forward. She caught up with them shortly and stopped in front of Josh.“Josh, you brat. Didn’t you hear me calling you?”Mrs. Bucham gave him the piece of her mind first. When she turned her gaze to Jasmine, she wore a smile and said to Jasmine, “Young lady, don’t be intimidated. I had to tell Josh off. How dare he turn a deaf ear to his mother’s words and run away when his mother was calling him!”“Mom.”Never in his wildest dreams did he think that he would bump into his mother here.Mrs. Bucham checked Jasmine out from head to toe and saw her holding a bouquet of flowers. Even though Josh had let go of Jasmine’s hand, Mrs. Bucham clearly saw her son holding Jasmine’s hand just now.Giving flowers and holding hands were daily acts of a couple. When did that brat get into a relationship? He did not even let his family

Jasmine smiled and replied, “I’m afraid I’ll disturb you.”“No worries. I enjoy having you around, in fact.”Mrs. Bucham brought Jasmine upstairs as if she knew in which room Josh was going to have a meal. Once they entered the room, it happened to be the private room that Josh had reserved.After being seated, Mrs. Bucham took off her fine charm bracelet. Then, she lifted Jasmine’s hand with the bracelet that Josh gave to Jasmine, and she removed that bracelet. After that, Mrs. Bucham put her bracelet on Jasmine’s wrist and said, “Jasmine, this is our first time meeting. I didn’t prepare anything, so I’ll give you my bracelet as a gift. That bracelet was given by Josh, right? The fineness of this charm bracelet is better.”Jasmine was born into a wealthy family and had a wealthy aunt. Therefore, she had come across all kinds of jewelry and could determine the value of the jewelry.The bracelet Josh gave her was quite costly. It was estimated to be worth a hundred thousand doll

Jasmine thought about how her parents liked Josh. If their parents were to meet, they would likely start discussing their nuptials immediately. And so, she said tactfully, “Mrs. Bucham, my parents are currently traveling and may only be back in a few months.”Mrs. Bucham said regretfully, “Oh, they’re out traveling? Then we’ll wait for them to come back and have a meal together. Jasmine, have your parents met Josh yet?”“They have.”“What did they think of him?”Jasmine looked at Josh and said, “I didn’t ask my parents that because when Josh came to my house, ninety percent of the reason was to look for my brother and treat him to a meal, so my parents think he likes my brother.”Mrs. Bucham was at a loss for words.Josh’s handsome face appeared slightly embarrassed but he did not try to explain himself.He knew Jasmine still did not want their parents to meet yet. He was not in a hurry anyway—it was enough for him to be able to bring home this beautiful woman this year.“Jasmi

When Zachary received the call from the bodyguards, he was at Wiltspoon Hotel, having a meeting with a client.After hearing from the bodyguards that Serenity had entered the drugstore to buy pregnancy tests, his hand holding the phone clenched, although he was still relatively calm. He said in his deep voice, “Got it.”After hanging up, Zachary immediately placed a call to Callum.“Hey.”“Callum, where are you now?”“I’m still in the office, doing some overtime.”Lately, his cousin had been working nonstop and everyone under him was tired to their bones.Even Callum, as the COO, was also having a hard time. After dinner, he still had to work overtime.“Come to the hotel now to discuss our collaboration with Mr. Fletcher. We’ve had a few meetings about this, so you should know about it.”“Alright.”Callum did not even dare ask where Zachary was going at the last minute. His cousin told him to go to the hotel and off he went.The York Corporation office was not far from Wilts

“You shouldn’t feel too much pressure about it either. Sometimes, you’ll get affected when there’s too much stress too. Anyway, let nature take its course. If you still don’t manage to get pregnant in two or three years, then you should go and get checked to find out the reason for it.”Some couples did not get pregnant even after a few years but even after getting examined, no problems turned up. Then after getting divorced and both married other people, they were able to become parents.“Maybe it just happened to be during the safe period every time.”Serenity could only guess.Liberty wanted to say that it was not necessarily safe during the safe period.She still felt that it just was not time for them to have kids yet, so it was hard for Serenity to get pregnant.There definitely was no problem with Zachary’s health. Her sister looked healthy too. And because she raised her sister, she was very familiar with her sister’s state of health. If there was something even a little

“Come on in.”Liberty stood aside to let Zachary in.Zachary carried the things in. Seeing that his beloved wife was watching TV, he walked over and placed the bag on the coffee table as he sat down beside Serenity.“Zachary, help yourself to whatever you want to eat or drink,” Liberty said and returned to her room.This allowed the husband and wife some alone time.“What did you buy?”Serenity put down the remote and asked. Then she pulled the bag towards her and after opening it to take a look inside, she was struck speechless.Never mind that he had people watching her every move, but he had bought milk powder for pregnant women beforehand for her to consume when her pregnancy was not even confirmed.Luckily, he had not sent a van full of supplements over.Maybe he had been in too much of a rush on his way over that he had not thought of buying a truckload of supplements for her.“I can’t take these for now. You should go and return them. They’re returnable.”Zachary said

Then he passed the fast food he had bought to Serenity and whispered, “The boss has been working like mad lately. He hasn’t been eating properly. Whenever we send him food, he keeps forgetting to eat.”Serenity took the fast food, and said, “Got it. I’ll remind him.”Jim was extremely grateful.After closing the door, Serenity took a few deep breaths to suppress the heartache and anger she was feeling. When she walked into the kitchen, she saw Zachary pressing a hand against his stomach with his other hand supporting him against the kitchen counter, seemingly in a lot of pain.“You’re having a stomachache, aren’t you?”An angry voice filled the room.He did not have to turn his head to know it was his esteemed wife.Zachary stood up straight in a flash, but the pain emanating from his stomach twisted his expression.Serenity felt her heart ache incredibly when she saw this and went forward to support him. She helped him out of the kitchen and pressed him down onto the sofa, ask
