“Look at that sweet smile. Did your husband send you a message?”
Jasmine teased her best friend.
She was happy when she saw Serenity and Mr. York getting closer to each other. She was looking forward to the two having a wedding soon so she could be the bridesmaid at their wedding banquet.
“Our guest room doesn‘t have a bed and cabinet yet. He received a bonus and transferred fifteen thousand for me to buy a bed, closet, bedding, and whatnot.
“Mrs. Lane, I‘ll take you shopping after Sonny has his afternoon nap, and that‘ll be after lunch. They‘re for you, so you should pick them out yourself.”
Mrs. Lane laughed. “I‘m not picky. I‘ll be fine with just having a place to stay.” “That won‘t do. You have to live comfortably. Your boss gave us money to buy stuff for you, so we don‘t have to scrimp and save for him. Pick furniture that‘s of good quality.”
Serenity thought that if Mrs. Lane did a good job, it meant a long term employment relationship for them. They would be living together like a family, so they could not treat her unfairly. Looking at the time, Serenity asked Elisa, “Are you staying for lunch?”
Elísa remembered that she would no longer be going to Wiltspoon Hotel to wait for Zachary, but she did not want to go home either. Thus, she answered casually, “Sure, I‘ll stay for lunch.”
Serenity told Mrs. Lane to cook for one more person.
“I‘ll go cook now, Ms. Hunt.”
Serenity watched her nephew play with toys happily and said, “Go ahead. I‘ll look after Sonny.”
As soon as Mrs. Lane entered the kitchen, she hurriedly took out her phone and sent a message to Zachary.
(Mr. Zachary, Ms. Stone is here. Missus asked her to stay for lunch, and she agreed.) Zachary transferred the money to Serenity after his meeting and went through several important documents. He was just about to pack up and leave work early to have lunch with his wife when he received the message from Mrs. Lane. He instantly felt as if he was doused in a basin of ice water, chilling him from head to toe. “Elisa Stone, you really are like a ghost haunting us.”
She was either pestering him or hogging his wife. Tough luck for both of them to have met Elisa in this life. Zachary tossed the car keys back on the table and sat back down. Elisa was in Serenity‘s store, so he naturally could not go.
Ring ring ring… His phone rang. It was from his grandmother.
“Nana.”
“Zack, Elisa is in Serenity‘s shop, so don‘t go over for lunch.”
After a moment of silence, Zachary asked, “How do you know?”
“I missed my granddaughter-in–law and wanted to visit her, but I saw Elisa‘s car parked in front of the store, so I quickly slipped away.”
Old Mrs. York sounded downhearted.
With Elisa in the store, she could not even spend time with her granddaughter–in–law.
“It‘s all your fault Zack. If not for you, I wouldn‘t have to sneak around like this. It‘s like I‘m a thief.”
Zachary was silent for a moment. “Nana, I haven‘t even gotten mad at Elisa hogging my wife, but you‘re blaming it on me?” “Oh, did you just say ‘my wife‘? Did you two get closer? When will I be able to hold my great–granddaughter soon? “Tell Serenity that our family doesn‘t have enough daughters and let her be the first to give me a fat and chubby great granddaughter like her. Make sure she doesn‘t turn out to be like you, or she won‘t be cute.”.
It would be fine if it was a great–grandson like Zachary. Boys were colder and gave people a more dignified aura. However, it would not be cute for a girl to have an expressionless face.
Old Mrs. York already disdained her eldest grandson‘s stoic and icy look. She did not want to have a great–granddaughter who was just as cold as he was.
Zachary said after a brief pause, “Nana, you really do think in the long run. Tell your sons to put in the effort and give you a granddaughter instead. It might be faster that way.”
Old Mrs. York instantly laughed and scolded him, “If your grandfather was still alive, would you say that it‘ll be quicker for us to try for a daughter instead? Your parents, aunts, and uncles are already old. How can they give birth to more children? They didn‘t manage to get a daughter when they were young, so they can only pin their hopes for a granddaughter now.” “My third uncle and aunt are only in their forties. I think they can still try.”
If his third uncle and aunt were here, they would say, “Zachary, you traitor!”
“Are you busy now?”
“I‘m on the phone with my Nana.”
“Look, that‘s what I mean. You‘re not cute at all. You‘re not busy, right? If you‘re not, I‘ll go to the office to find you. Let‘s go shopping.” Zachary was at a loss for words.
“I‘m working, Nana.”
“The company won‘t close down even without you. I‘m asking you to come shopping with me for your own good. You have to get used to shopping with women. Only then will you have the patience to accompany Serenity. It‘s an opportunity for you to gain experience, but you don‘t know how to appreciate my good intentions.”
The corners of Zachary‘s mouth twitched, and he said in exasperation, “Tell Callum to go with you. I have a lunch appointment at noon.”
“Didn‘t you cancel it?”
He was silent for a moment and said, “My wife is currently being occupied, so I have no choice but to carry on with the lunch appointment.”
“Haha, you rascal! Look at yourself! What did I say?”
Zachary was speechless.
“Fine, I won‘t take up any more of your time. I‘ll ask your third brother to have a stroll with me. Out of all your brothers and cousins, your third cousin brother is the most gifted at talking. I don‘t have to worry about being bored with him around.”
OMG! I miss nana! Nana i’m pretty sure you know what Zachary has been doing!
Nana has been getting info from Callum i think
