Chapter 1285
Married at First Sight
Serenity gave it a thought before replying, âI donât take on a lot of stress. My inâlaws are not pressuring me either. Nana only talked about having a greatâgranddaughter every once in a while. Zachary said heâs taking me on a trip to Annenburg once heâs done with his work. Weâre going to visit Mr. Youngâ
Johnson.â
Zachary believed Serenity did not have many friends, so he was trying to get her and Benâs wife, Jane, together.
Since Remy was part of the Johnson family, and he was in love with Elisa, Serenity could befriend.
Jane and get an understanding of the Johnson family for Elisa. At least, she could check out if the Johnsons were as nice as the public put it out to be.
The way Serenity saw it, Elisa and Remy got along well. They looked good together. Serenity would stand on Elisaâs corner and convince Aunt Audrey if the Johnsons proved to be a good family and if Elisa developed feelings for Remy too.
Sure, Remy was hailed from Annenburg, but he had bought a house next to the Stones and oversaw FC & Co.âs businesses in Wiltspoon. He was stationed in Wiltspoon. Elisa would still be living in Wiltspoon if she married Remy. In fact, she would live next door to her family.
Nevertheless, it was too soon to talk about this. Remy had not even professed his feelings to Elisa, and Elisa never revealed what she thought about Remy.
âOkay. You should travel and get some fresh air. The child will come when youâre feeling good. I guess Zachary is not in a rush since your inâlaws arenât pressuring you to start a family. Donât obsess about getting pregnant.
âYou can go for a physical to see whatâs the cause if you canât get pregnant after trying for two years.
SâSometimesâ¦â
Mrs. Stone did not know how to put it.
Serenity looked at her, wanting her aunt to carry on.
Since nothing was private between them girls, Mrs. Stone whispered, âSometimes, frequent sex can affect your chances of conceiving.â
Serenity was lost for words.
Having guessed the answer by the look on Serenityâs face, Mrs. Stone said with a smile, âYouâre still in your honeymoon period. Itâs normal, but you canât always let Zachary have his way. You need to prioritize your health.â
âI will, Aunt Audrey. Heâs not the kind who only cares about his own pleasure.â
She should go home and have a talk with Zachary. He did not have to slave away at the office during the day and plow away during the night. The constant activity was not helping with putting a bun in the oven.
âZachary is good to you, so I donât have to worry much. Iâm concerned about your sister. Does Duncan have a thing for your sister? Heâs great with Sonny and is always helping your sister.â
âMr. Lewis said he simply took a shine to Sonny. My sister isnât interested in Mr. Lewis that way.â
Not only did Mrs. Stone get Duncanâs impression of Liberty, but Serenity and Zachary had the same idea too. Still, Duncan did not admit to it. He insisted that he was only fond of the boy.
It was true that Liberty did not have that kind of feeling for Duncan.
Mrs. Stone sat in silence for a while before giving her two cents. âI appreciate a young talent like Duncan, but Mrs. Lewis wonât win motherâinâlaw of the year for sure. She doesnât care for your sisterâs upbringing. Itâs fine if theyâre just friends, but ifâ¦â
She left her sentence hanging.
âDonât worry, Aunt Audrey. It wonât be easy for my sister to fall in love again.â
Serenity hoped her sister could find her second chance at love and be happier than Hank. The failure of her marriage was quite a blow to Liberty. Serenity could not forget her sister weeping when she first decided to go down the divorce route.
Liberty locked her heart away, refusing to let anybody in.
âSigh. I guess we can only let it be.â
Mrs. Stone knew that there was no point talking about it or preventing it.
âHave your nap, Aunt Audrey. Iâm going back to the shop.â
âSure,â Mrs. Stone said before urging her to pay attention to her safety on the road.
