Chapter 962
“Seren, why didn’t you tell me you were coming? I would’ve gone downstairs to pick you up.”Zachary took the insulated lunch boxes from his wife, fearing that she would be tired from carrying them. He turned around to place the two boxes on his desk, then led her by the hand to sit on the sofa.His fiery eyes glued to her body.Callum spat in his heart, ‘If he could dig out his eyeballs and stick them on Serenity, I guess he would do it without hesitation.’“It’s not the first time I came to your office. You don’t have to pick me up. I brought you food, so eat it while it’s hot. Eating your meals on time every day will help your stomach recover.”Zachary grinned. “Thank you, honey.”Serenity could not help but pinch his cheery face and smile. “Is the company giving out bonuses today? Everyone I saw today was beaming brightly.”Callum chimed in with a laugh, “Serenity, having you come here is more gratifying than getting a bonus.”Zachary looked at his brother.‘Didn’t you see
Chapter 963
Zachary wanted to see the photos now because Serenity was present.There was new gossip to be heard, so of course he wanted to let his beloved wife in on it.Callum was not stupid and knew that Zachary was using Kevin and him as gossip material for Serenity.Alas, he was betraying his brothers for his wife.As Callum handed over the two photos, he despised himself for his lack of backbone. Zachary was selling him out to please his sister-in-law, but he was still bending over backward to go along with it.If his relationship did not go smoothly in the future and he needed his brother’s and sister-in-law’s help, he hoped the young couple would lend him a hand unconditionally.Bah, what was he thinking?His relationship was sure to be smooth sailing.In any case, he would not get married out of the blue or hide the marriage. He would not conceal his identity to lie to his wife either. Everything would go smoothly.“What photos?”Sure enough, Serenity was interested.Zachary pre

Callum remembered that Kevin was six feet two and understood Grandma May’s arrangements.Callum was only five foot seven. If he were to get together with Hayden, she would be taller than him.Out of the nine brothers, Kevin was the tallest.“Even if a woman dresses up as a man, there’ll be signs. A woman’s Adam’s apple is less obvious.”Serenity stared at Hayden’s picture. Her interest was genuinely piqued. ‘Why did she pretend to be a man for more than twenty years?’“Seren, there are clothes to hide the Adam’s apple.”Serenity was speechless.She did not think of that.“Who is Casey Stoll?” she asked curiously.Zachary took the initiative to explain, “She’s the president of Stoll Corporation in Annenburg. She’s a little pitiful. She lost all her family members except for her little sister, so she had no choice but to take over the family business. Her life has been quite hard. She often dresses in unisex clothing, but she’s very powerful and influential, so people mistake he

Zachary and Callum said in their hearts, ‘Nana won’t do anything she’s uncertain about.’Zachary took Camryn’s photo from his beloved wife’s hand and handed it to Callum, then started to glare at the latter again.Callum was speechless… “I’ll go now, Zachary and Serenity. You guys continue chatting. Eat more, Zachary!”What a cheapskate!Serenity said there was enough food for them to eat together, but Zachary would not let him eat!He could only find an excuse to leave, but he could not let Serenity notice that it was because Zachary was being stingy and not letting him stay.Callum left, leaving the young couple in the office.“Have you eaten, Seren?”“I ate before I came here.”Serenity would not let herself go hungry.Zachary was just about to reach out for the food when his wife smacked his hand.“You’re an adult. Use a spoon.”She handed him the utensils. “Hurry up and eat. Cold food isn’t good for your stomach.”Zachary took the spoon and said to Serenity, “I’ll eat
Chapter 966
Zachary casually raised the question as he pulled Serenity’s hand over to play with after he finished eating.The last time he met Clive, he even mentioned how Clive had not had a child despite several years of marriage. Now, Alice suddenly got pregnant.He wondered when his Seren would get pregnant too.Zachary was not in a hurry to have a baby. He just liked the process.After remaining chaste for so long, all the cells in his body were screaming at him, desiring Serenity.Unfortunately, he had to hold back for a while longer.He pulled her hand up to check her injured finger and make sure that it was recovering well. Lowering his head, he tenderly kissed the wounded finger.It was his fault that caused her to get hurt.“I talked to Liberty about it. She’ll go buy some supplements. She’s a mother, so she knows more than I do. Once she buys them, we’ll send them over together.”Serenity was genuinely happy about Alice’s pregnancy.“That’s fine. I’ll reimburse Liberty for the

Grandma May nagged Liberty. “Your sister and you don’t know how to use the York family name for your own benefit. If you agree to let me arrange for those boys to come over and support your restaurant, I guarantee that your business will be booming.”If all nine young masters of the York family came here for breakfast, they would be a walking advertisement.However, Liberty refused.“Nana, we want to rely on ourselves. My aunt is also always saying that she wants to help me. The pressure on Seren will be greater if I refuse.“Have you eaten yet? We can eat together if you don’t mind.”Liberty fed her son first and had yet to eat.Grandma May said bluntly, “I’ve had all sorts of food before. Of course, I won’t mind eating with you. In fact, I’d love to.”She was used to eating extravagantly, but it would be nice to have a change of palate.Liberty brought out the plate of spaghetti she made and said sheepishly, “I only made spaghetti because I thought only Sonny and I would be e

Grandma May put down her fork. She was full.Duncan agreed. “Yes, Sonny is indeed smart.”“Then why are you buying windmills for him? If you want to buy toys, then buy him some educational toys. There’s no novelty if you only buy him windmills. Can’t you see how he’s more interested in his food?”Her grandson and his friend were two peas in a pod.Josh was the exception. His mouth was as crafty as Kevin’s.Grandma May was not sure if Duncan was interested in Liberty, but she could tell that he was trying to appeal to Sonny. It looked like he was trying to make Sonny call him “Dad”.Duncan would have thought to himself, ‘I just like Sonny…’He smiled sheepishly and said, “I’ve never had a child before, so I don’t know what toys children like. Sonny was very happy the last time I gave him a windmill and even let me hold him. I thought he liked windmills, so I bought another one for him.”Grandma May was speechless.Did Duncan not know what change meant?She wondered if her old

Grandma May was glad that Duncan was not her grandson.When she thought of Zachary, she sighed silently.Birds of a feather flock together.Duncan was a good friend of Zachary, and they shared many similarities between them.After Duncan checked the utility bill with the housekeeper, he hung up the phone and said, “The amount is just right.”He took out his wallet, stuffed the rent he had just received into it, and said to Liberty, “Just use Apple Pay to transfer the amount to my housekeeper or me in the future. I’ll tell him to keep a record.”Liberty hummed and explained, “I transferred the amount last month, but the card I linked to my account reached its limit this month, so I had to withdraw cash with my bankbook.”The bank card she tied to her Apple Pay account was for daily living expenses. She kept most of her money in another account.“Well, do you need help with anything else?”Liberty quickly said, “Everything is ready. We’re just waiting to open.”“Have you distri
