Chapter 1246
Married at First Sight
âZachary,â Callum greeted.
Zachary glanced at Camryn and the bouquet of flowers she was holding, then his eyes returned to his younger brother. He sighed faintly, hugged Serenityâs waist, and said, âWeâre leaving now.â
Without waiting for Callum to reply, he left with Serenity in his arms.
Serenity turned to look back as she walked.
Zachary used his hand to push her face forward and said in a low voice, âIâm more handsome than Callum.â
âIâm not looking at Callum; Iâm looking at Camryn. Wait, why do you sound jealous?â
âYouâre looking at another man. Even if heâs my brother, Iâll still get jealous.â
Serenity was speechless. âIf we have a son in the future and I treat our son well, will you be jealous of him too?â
âI wonât get jealous if we have a daughter.â
âI also want to have a daughter and break your familyâs record. Who knows if Iâll have the chance? Iâd better prepare for a son. If youâre going to be jealous of your own son, then I hope youâre prepared to be jealous for the rest of your life.â
Zacharyâs expression turned sullen. He seemed very unhappy.
He thought, âIf we have a baby in the future, and that baby turns out to be a boy, heâll take away my wifeâs attention. Maybe Seren will treat the baby better than she treats me. Should we use birth control for now? I still want to spend time alone with her.â
âI told Josh to help me find out if thereâs a fortune teller to divine the fate of our family. Maybe thereâs something preventing the York family from having girls.â
Zachary still very much wanted a daughter.
That was not only his wish, but also the wish of the York family for several generations.
âDid you find one?â
âNot yet. Real diviners are hard to invite even if we can find them, but Iâll find one and ask for their help no matter how much money I have to spend. Letâs see if our generation can conceive a girl.â
Serenity said, âI heard that fate is also important. If the diviner doesnât want to come, then we canât force them. Ask Nana if she knows any fortune tellers.â
The couple chatted as they walked out of the office building and toward Zacharyâs car.
The bodyguards brought the car that Serenity drove over back.
After getting into the car, Zachary said, âI heard she called a fortune teller over once to Whitmore Mansion, the place where we spent our New Year. She also invited him to Wildridge Manor when it was first built.
âBut she said the diviner was already in his seventies when she invited him to Wildridge Manor. I guess he must have already passed by now.â
Wildridge Manor was built decades ago.
Serenity sighed.
She liked to listen to pseudoscience. Although she did not understand, it was quite interesting.
Even though she was slightly afraid of the paranormal, she still liked to hear about it.
âWeâll just have to take our time to look for one.â
Serenity said, âAt most, we can try again for a girl the second time.â
Zacharyâs palm covered her flat belly for a moment before he retracted his hand. He said enviously, âIf only we could be like Remyâs brother and sisterâinâlaw. His sistersâinâlaw both had twins for their first pregnancies. His second sisterâinâlaw had identical twins, and his oldest sisterâinâlaw is almost due too.â
Serenity laughed. âHaving one son is enough to make you jealous. Itâll be worse if we have twin boys.â
Zachary was speechless.
He was hoping they could have fraternal twins, or a pair of identical girls instead.
