Chapter 2178
Author: Gu Lingfei
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

    “Nana, Gramps is watching from above. He’s at peace,” Zachary chimed in after hearing Grandma May’s words.She replied with a smile, “As long as you get married and have a child, your gramps would be at ease. He was most worried about you. His attention was all placed on you.“When he was a father, he didn’t care for his sons as much as he did his grandsons when he became a grandfather. Back then, your gramps would criticize your father and all other sons. When it came to your generation, he’d be cheerful no matter what you did.” This showed that the intergenerational relationship between Old Mr. York and Zachary was better than the one he had with the generation before Zachary.Serenity had never seen Old Mr. York, so it was not her place to comment.As Zachary’s grandparents were the ones who raised him, he was the closest to the two of them.Zachary walked over to bring Grandma May to the dining table and seated her. He said with a smile, “Do I look like the younger version

    “Nana, is there any way to stop Seren from vomiting?”Grandma May said, “It’s normal to have morning sickness, but this only happens in the first trimester. After three months, morning sickness will gradually clear. If it’s not too severe, she can endure it. If it is, she should go to the hospital and see the doctor.“Don’t simply take medications as many can’t be taken during pregnancy,” Grandma May reminded her grandson.Serenity said, “Nana, I know. I won’t simply take medications. I’ll endure it.”In the end, she said in admiration, “Why didn’t Jasmine vomit?”Serenity wondered why she had this reaction but not Jasmine.“Everyone is different. Some people don’t vomit when they are pregnant with their first baby. However, they vomit terribly during their second pregnancy.”Serenity touched her belly and said, “I hope I won’t vomit until the baby is delivered.”“I’ll take Seren to the hospital for a checkup later. I’ll ask the doctor if there’s any way to ease her morning sic

    Zachary remembered the words of advice Serenity had offered to Clive back then.Having a miscarriage could be harmful to the body.The husband and wife should know each other best.Serenity was aware of Zachary’s expression. Soon, she was able to guess what was going on in his head. Also, he bit his tongue several times just now.“Zachary, don’t even think about it!”Serenity warned him seriously, “If you dare act as my cousin did, we’ll get a divorce. I’ll raise my child, and you don’t have to meddle in it.”“Seren.“What’s wrong?”Grandma May and Liberty were stupefied to hear what Seren said.Seren actually brought up divorce.Just like when Zachary revealed his identity, Serenity’s reaction was extreme and she mentioned that she wanted to get a divorce. Zachary acted like a lunatic at that time.The couple’s relationship then was stiff, which was worrying.Fortunately, they made peace afterward.Serenity never brought up divorce again with Zachary.She knew the me

    Grandma May was about to slap Zachary again. Serenity quickly pulled the old lady’s hand back. “I’m not angry anymore, Nana. Please stop hitting Zachary. He’s already in his thirties. He’ll be embarrassed if you keep beating him.”“Although Seren is protecting you and hiding your mistakes from me, I’m still giving you a warning—I won’t let you off if you don’t behave yourself.”Zachary smiled bitterly. “I know, Nana. I’ve always behaved myself properly.”Mrs. Lane soon returned with the sour prunes. Serenity tore the package open eagerly and ate one. The sour taste spread in her mouth. She smiled and said, “I love this taste.”Zachary breathed a sigh of relief when he saw Serenity enjoying the sour prunes. After a short rest, Zachary brought Serenity to the hospital for a checkup. Grandma May and Liberty remained in Brynfield. Mrs. Lane continued going about her business. Since they had nothing to do, Grandma May could finally ask Liberty about her and Duncan’s relation

    “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.
