Zachary was speechless.
“I’ve even brought my luggage over already. If you don’t let me move in, I’ll roll out a rug at the entrance of your place. If Serenity thinks you’re unfilial and wants to stop liking you, you can’t blame me then, Okay?”
“Don’t worry, I won’t give your secret away. You’ve been hiding your identity and lying to Serenity for so long now. The longer you do so, and once it gets out, the angrier she’ll be. I’m filled with more joy as I look on. I can’t wait to see how you’ll salvage the situation then!”
Zachary kept a tight lid on his anger. This was his nana! His nana! He had to endure it. He could not let his temper flare, at all costs! “Fine, fine, fine. If you want to move in, then you can move in.”
Facing his own nana, Zachary could only raise the white flag in surrender.
“Nana, you must not have eaten yet, right? There are only five minutes left until work ends. You should hurry and get Callum to take you out to eat.”
Nana asked him, “Why, aren’t you eating? Or are you going to Serenity’s shop to eat? Can I follow you?”
“Don’t you want to meet your great–granddaughter as soon as possible? If you’re constantly following me to third–wheel us, you won’t be able to meet her even in a few years‘ time.”
“Wow, you’ve seen the light! Did the sun rise from the west? Or have I started hallucinating in my old age and heard wrongly?”
Nana took her phone out and said to Zachary, “Zack, say that again a little louder so I can record that. When I’m bored, I’ll play it back to make sure I didn’t hear it wrongly.”
Zachary was speechless.
Nana then glanced twice at her grandson’s legs, and asked, “Do your legs hurt?”
Zachary did not respond, his expression sullen.
“It was only a few days I hadn’t seen you, Zack, but why do I feel like your face has swollen? Who punched you?”
Zachary continued to remain silent with that dark expression on his face.
“Who was the one who said ‘I don’t get jealous, it’s unbecoming!‘ and ‘I don’t chase after women!“? Zack, do you know who said that?”
Zachary’s face did not twitch from its glum expression. His lips were pursed tightly as he kept quiet.
Nana laughed until she was content, and only then changed the subject. “Isn’t Elisa Stone waiting for you there?”
“She won’t come and disturb me anymore.”
Elisa had not come to the office to lie in wait for him for the past two days.
She had once told Serenity that as long as Zachary already had a girlfriend or was married, she would definitely stop bothering him.
That made Zachary’s impression of her increase in favorability by two points.
The unruly young lady was indeed much better than many others just by not trying to break apart a marriage in the pursuit of true love.
“Has she found out about you and Serenity?”
“Nope. I just showed my left hand off, and she backed off.”
Nana harrumphed. “What do you think your left hand is? If she backed off just after you showed off your left hand, what exactly did you do?”
Zachary silently took out the gold ring he kept with himself at all times, put it on his left hand’s ring finger, and waved it at Nana.
Nana was speechless.
“Nana, I’ll get Callum to take you to lunch, and take your luggage with you. Once you’re done eating, get Callum to drop you off at Serenity’s shop.”
Just as Nana was about to reply, Zachary added, “Nana, Callum’s not young anymore too. Stop scrutinizing me only. No matter how you see it, I’m married. I have a wife. Callum’s still single, so shouldn’t you shift your target? Just so Callum can’t keep saying you have a favorite.”
Nana pursed–her lips. “That’s because I don’t have a suitable candidate in mind! Once I find some, not a single one of those cousins of yours will be able to escape.
“You don’t have to call Callum to your office, I’ll go find him myself,” Nana added as she stood up and left, dragging her luggage away.
Zachary still notified Callum regardless to get Callum to pick up Nana.
When Callum saw Nana dragging her luggage bag behind her, he was stunned for a moment. and asked in confusion, “Nana, what are you doing? Are you going on holiday?”
“I want to move in with your cousin and his wife.”
Callum was not an idiot and understood the situation in an instant. He laughed and said, ” Nana, can you ask him if I can move in with him too?”
“His place is so small. How could it fit you too?”
“I can sleep on the sofa or something. If that doesn’t fly, I can just roll out a rug. You can just tell him that if I see him and Serenity being affectionate every day, I’ll be easily influenced and want to end my singlehood. My parents would be extremely thankful to him if he lets me move in.”
He was still single and his parents were extremely anxious at this point.
