Married at First Sight Chapter 1369
The bodyguards drew close and stared at Serenity. “Missus.” Drawing a few deep breaths, Serenity tried to get a grip on herself. “I’m fine.” She lowered her head and looked at the urine test results scrunched in her hands. Serenity folded the piece of paper and slipped it into her pocket before walking away. The security team followed her out of the hospital and into the hospital’s parking lot. While walking, the bodyguards prayed that Mr. Zachary was waiting for the missus in the car. Mr. Zachary had a bad temper, but he was all bark and no bite every time he fought with the missus. Mr. Zachary would never abandon the missus. Alas, the bodyguards were in for a disappointment. They marched behind Serenity to the parking lot, but Zachary’s car was nowhere in sight. Only two vehicles belonging to the bodyguards were still there. Serenity cocked her head back and asked, “Where’s your car key?” With a bodyguard fishing out his car key, Serenity put her hand out. The bod

“Sir, ma’am, Mr. Zachary is back.” “What is he doing here?” Liam asked skeptically, “Did Serenity come back with him?” “Only two cars returned. Mr. Zachary drove one himself, and the other was the security vehicle. It appears the missus isn’t in the car.” “Oh.” Liam then instructed the maid, “Tell the kitchen to cook extra servings. Zachary should at least stay for dinner.” The maid wanted to laugh. This was Mr. Zachary’s home. It was normal that Mr. Zachary could dine at his own place. Yet, Mr. Liam acted as though Mr. Zachary was the guest trying to freeload a meal. The maid gave the couple some space. Liam turned to his beloved wife. “Have you figured out a way to checkmate? I’m going if you’re stuck.” “Let me mull this over. Don’t bother me. I will come up with a way. What did Eunice say? Is Zack back? Oh, he has time to come home?” “Who knows? He rarely comes back to the manor now that he has a wife. He usually just comes back for a brief talk. It’s like th

“Your nana mentioned that whoever brings a daughter to the family will get a five-hundred-million-dollar reward from the family fund. Your mom and I will give you something too. Well, we won’t give more than your nana. We’ll add five hundred million dollars to the pot too.” Liam and his wife had personal assets amounting to several hundred million dollars. The extra five hundred million dollars out of their pockets was not a small amount to them. “No one has gotten the five hundred million dollars. Zack, maybe you and Seren will get lucky.” Tania gleefully chimed in. “I’ll give half of my jewelry to my granddaughter if you give us one.” Zachary looked at his parents. He waited until his parents had a happy moment to themselves before murmuring, “The pee result was negative.” “Negative?” Liam turned his attention to his wife whose smile froze. Tania uttered, “It’s okay. You’re still young. You’ve only been married for six months. You still haven’t had your wedding recept

Zachary answered, “I didn’t say anything harsh. I just left. Why would she feel hurt and cry?” The thought of Serenity shedding tears broke his heart. “How would you feel if Serenity leaves you alone in the hospital?” Tania asked her son. Her son had no game when it came to relationships. It was no wonder Grandma May made Zachary marry Serenity to repay her kindness. With that temper of Zachary’s, any woman would give him the snub. Zachary pursed his lips and said, “It’s not like I don’t have legs. I know the way. I know my way home even if she doesn’t leave with me.” Tania was at a loss for words. “I said we’re fine in health, and there’s no need for a physical. She said that I’m scared of doctors and that I looked like I’ve seen a ghost.” Zachary whined, “She won’t trust my word. She doesn’t trust me enough. She can’t get pregnant just because we want her to. I’ve not been married to her for long. We can get a physical when we can’t get pregnant in a decade or so.” Ta

Zachary could not pull a longer face. “Don’t you wish to have grandchildren too?” Tania said, “Yes, we do, but we never want to rush Serenity, so don’t put the blame on us. We never pressure Serenity to give us a grandchild.” “Seren puts the burden on herself.” Zachary knew Serenity was feeling it when she talked about getting a physical.He believed Serenity was stressed from trying to get pregnant. “You should be telling Seren that the child will come when the time comes if she’s feeling the pressure. It’ll be harder for her to get pregnant while sitting under a lot of pressure. Tell her not to think too much about it. You have not been together for long. I think the medical examination is necessary after two to three years of trying without hearing any good news.” “That’s what I’m saying. I don’t think we need a check-up since we’re both fine and healthy. She’s just under a lot of stress. I told her that I’ll take her on a trip after Josh and Jasmine’s engagement party.”
Married at First Sight Chapter 1374
The Soxes had just had their dinner. Since Serenity was not in the best of moods, Jasmine had a walk with her nearby after dinner. “Seren, I remember you saying that your in-laws didn’t pressure you to have children. Why are you taking in all the stress?” The pair were best friends who could pass as sisters. Jasmine had been there throughout Serenity and Zachary’s journey together. She had never heard about the York family rushing Serenity to have a baby. “They did not pressure me, but I’m worried I might be the problem that I’m not expecting yet.” Serenity sighed and added, “No one is giving me pressure, but I can’t help putting the strain on myself. Even if my in-laws are from an ordinary family, I would be worried about not getting pregnant despite being married for a while. I won’t feel much of it if we have been using protection.” Jasmine’s mind flew to the families she knew. The women usually got pregnant soon after the wedding, but most of them had a shotgun wedding no

Ring, ring, ring…Jasmine’s phone rang. She looked at the caller on the display screen before telling her best friend, “It’s Josh. I think your man might have sought help from Josh. Josh must be calling to ask where you are.” Serenity faintly uttered, “Just ignore him. Does he think he’s the only one with a temper? I have a temper too.” Always having Serenity’s back, Jasmine believed her best friend was not in the wrong. Serenity was a confident and cheerful person, but for her to be worried about not being pregnant, the pressure had to somehow come from her man, Zachary. Jasmine felt sorry for her best friend. She wanted to help her best friend give Zachary a taste of his own medicine. Ring, ring, ring…With the phone ringing endlessly, Jasmine had to pick up the call. “What are you busy with, Jasmine? Don’t you miss me? It took you a long time to pick up. I miss you so much. I thought about driving to your place to check on you if you take any longer to take my call

“Oh, you didn’t dig into it?” Josh immediately said, “I didn’t because you didn’t like that everything was in my control while you know nothing. I won’t use my connections to investigate if it has anything to do with you. I’m just guessing that Serenity is with you. You guys are bosom buddies. She tells you anything that’s going on in her life.” “Seren is with me. Tell Mr. York that Seren is staying with me for the night. She’s not going home for the time being.” Josh answered, “Okay, I’ll let him know later. Is there anything you want to say to me, my dearest wife?” “Your boss should serve as a cautionary tale. Don’t learn from him.” Josh uttered with a smile, “Don’t worry. I do the opposite of what he does. I won’t copy the things that he angered his wife with.” “You gave me no reason to worry. I love you, Josh. I love you to death!” “Me too.” Jasmine said, “You better reply to Mr. York before he freaks out. He loves Seren so much, but the little things he does… I’m g

“A baby’s face changes almost every day. We’ll only know who he takes after when he’s a little older.”Serenity agreed. “I should call Elisa and share this news with her.”Jasmine probably did not have time to tell her friends about her newborn. Serenity also forgot to inform Elisa because she was too worried about Jasmine. Zachary told her to call Elisa only after they were inside the car. There were too many people in the hospital. Serenity held back her excitement and immediately called Elisa when she got in the car. Elisa was extremely busy at the company. She was the only one who could manage their joint company at that moment because Serenity and Jasmine were pregnant. Even if they wanted to return to the company to work, Elisa would not allow them. Rest was of utmost importance for pregnant women. Elisa was unmarried and not pregnant. She did not mind being busier. She only picked up Serenity’s call after some time.“Seren.”Elisa held the phone in her left h

“All that matters is that you’re okay, honey. Let’s not have more children. We’ll just have this one son.”Josh spoke while holding Jasmine’s hand.Women had to experience immense pain when giving birth. It came with many risks as well. Josh had heard other people saying that a woman usually had one foot in the grave during childbirth.He was genuinely shocked after accompanying Jasmine through her labor. He had been terrified and worried that something would happen to Jasmine.Luckily, everything ended well. Jasmine and their son were safe. However, Josh did not want to experience something like that again. Having one child was enough. There was no need for a second or third child. The Buchams were a big family anyway. He did not have to bear the responsibility of expanding the family alone.“Okay. We shall not have another baby.”Although Jasmine was brimming with motherly love and recovery from a vaginal delivery was quicker, she still thought childbirth was too

It was not just Camila. The rest of the people there also had the same thought. Josh and Jasmine had a great relationship. If something happened to Jasmine, Josh would be devastated and lose all hope of living.“Congratulations. The mother has given birth to a boy safely. The baby boy is six pounds and three ounces.”The people who brought Josh out were the anesthetist and nurse.The nurse instinctively reported the good news when she saw the crowd.Then, she explained, “The father probably fainted from shock after the baby was born. Come over and help bring him to the side to rest. The mother won’t be out that quickly.”Upon hearing her words, everyone’s mood brightened up.Camila, whose legs felt weak just now, was immediately filled with strength and stood up. Without Drake's help, she went to the nurse and asked, “Does the baby need to be in the incubator since he was born prematurely?”The nurse replied, “We’ll put the baby in the incubator and observe him for a while. If

Zachary was also worried that Serenity would go into premature labor out of shock. He also persuaded her to go for her checkup in a gentle voice. They could not do anything but wait anyway.Serenity finally decided to conduct her prenatal checkup first. Zachary accompanied her. Just moments after they left, the door to the delivery suite opened. A nurse stood there and shouted, “Is Jasmine Sox’s husband here?”“Yes. I’m her husband,” replied Josh quickly. He dashed to the nurse. “You must save Jas, doctor. Save the mother no matter what.”His family members behind him also echoed, “That’s right. No matter what happens, you have to save Jasmine.”The nurse said, “The mother is fine. It’s just that she wants her husband to accompany her as she’s in a lot of pain.”Everyone breathed a sigh of relief.Josh was about to rush inside but was stopped by the nurse.She asked him to change his clothes before taking him inside the delivery suite.Jasmine was wailing in pain.

With advanced medical technology, a premature baby could still be healthy if taken good care of in the incubator. Serenity said, “Jasmine should be at thirty-five weeks. I just don’t understand why she would suddenly go into labor. Did she fall at home?“Or did she eat something that made her go into labor?”Zachary said, “That’s most likely not the case. Josh’s cousin is Jasmine’s dietician and keeps an eye on her food every day. There’s no way Jasmine would’ve eaten something bad unless she ate it secretly.”Serenity and Zachary suddenly went silent. Pregnant women had weird appetites. Once they had a craving, they could not go unsatisfied. Sometimes, they would even crave fruits that were not in season. Serenity herself was one of them. Once, she woke up in the middle of the night craving mac and cheese. Of course, Zachary, the ever-doting husband, had to satisfy her request. However, where could he find mac and cheese at that hour?Ultimately, he had to drive to the

People would reap what they had sown. They would have to bear the consequences of their actions. Sometimes, interfering in another person’s fate would backfire. After chatting for some time, Serenity said, “I have to go for my checkup now, Liberty. Let’s talk again when you’re free another day.“By the way, I’ll get someone to bring Sonny to you this weekend. He misses you.”“Okay,” said Liberty. After the call ended, Serenity put her phone into her bag and stood up. She told the man behind the office desk, “It’s almost time, babe. Let’s go.”“Okay. I’m almost done.”Zachary quickly signed and stamped a document before closing it. He walked over with the document in hand. Serenity and Zachary left the office together. He handed the document to his secretary. The secretary did not expect him to pass the document to him personally. He had thought of entering Zachary’s office to request it later. The secretary watched Zachary and Serenity leave. He could not believe

Lilian often messed with the medicinal herbs her master cultivated, which led to her being chased and scolded by him.It seemed her son had inherited her restless nature.“How’s Sonny been lately?”Liberty had been on edge these past few days because Caroline had been preparing to lure her three brothers into a trap and had not had time to call her son.“Same as usual, but it seems like things have soured again with the Browns.”Serenity added, “Sonny still answers when Hank calls him, but he doesn’t seem happy when his grandparents visit. He doesn’t like going to the Browns’ place, and he doesn’t want to take their calls either.“Hank’s mother and sister are truly incorrigible. They must have been badmouthing you and Duncan in front of Sonny again, which is why he’s upset with them.”During the holidays, Sonny had stayed with the Browns for a few days and started to warm up to them.However, who would have thought that the mother and daughter would start spouting nonsense in f

Once the baby was born, he would apply the knowledge he had learned over the past few months to care for the baby. He was determined to be a competent and responsible father.Serenity released her arms from around him and shifted to her side.Zachary let go, too, allowing her to turn.Then, she planted countless gentle kisses on his face.“Babe, with you here, the baby and I will be just fine. Don’t worry too much,” Serenity comforted softly after kissing him.“You are my rock. If even you are nervous, I’ll start feeling anxious too, and that won’t be good.”Hearing this, Zachary immediately said, “Seren, don’t worry. I’ll protect both of you. Alright, I won’t be so nervous anymore.”He gently touched her rounded belly again. “Lil’ Bun should be a calm kid. He’s not that mischievous.”He felt that the baby’s movements were not too intense.Serenity wanted to tell him that there were times when the baby kicked more vigorously, but she decided against it, knowing it would only m

“Just hit the gym a few more times. Lately, you’ve been spending less time there.”Every day after work, he would come home and orbit around her. As a result, he had less time to work out.It was normal to gain a few pounds eating well and exercising less. Did he really think he could eat anything without gaining weight?The reason he could maintain a model-like physique before was that he exercised daily.“Ow.” Serenity suddenly cried out in pain.This startled Zachary so much that he nearly jumped up, asking anxiously, “Is it stomach pain? Are you going into labor? Let’s go to the hospital right away.”He was about to pick her up, but Serenity stopped him by pressing his hand.“Don’t be so nervous, Zachary. It's not time yet. It’s not happening so soon. It’s just the baby kicking again. His kicks are getting stronger.”As she entered the later stages of pregnancy, the little one inside her was growing stronger. Sometimes, a couple of kicks from the baby could actually hurt.
