Chapter 1371

“Your nana mentioned that whoever brings a daughter to the family will get a five-hundred-million-

dollar reward from the family fund. Your mom and I will give you something too. Well, we won’t give more than your nana. We’ll add five hundred million doilars to the pot too.”

Liam and his wife had personal assets amounting to several hundred million dollars.

The extra five hundred million dollars out of their pockets was not a small amount to them.

“No one has gotten the five hundred million dollars. Zack, maybe you and Seren will get lucky.”

Tania gleefully chimed in. “I’ll give half of my jewelry to my granddaughter if you give us one.”

Zachary looked at his parents.

He waited until his parents had a happy moment to themselves before murmuring, “The pee result was negative.”

“Negative?”

Liam turned his attention to his wife whose smile froze. Tania uttered, “It’s okay. You’re still young.

You’ve only been married for six months. You still haven’t had your wedding reception. There’s no rush.

We’re bound to hear good news since you haven’t used protection.”

“Oh, she’s not pregnant.”

Disappointed, Liam said, “I thought I could finally give out the reward to my daughter-in-law.”

Tania immediately consoled him, “It’s okay that she’s not pregnant yet. They’re young. There’s no rush.

The wedding preparations are still underway. Her belly will show at the wedding if she’s pregnant now.

She’ll have a bump in their wedding photos. Zack, has Seren’s wedding dress been custom ordered?”

Serenity was the missus of the York family, so she needed a designer to tailor a dress for her.

Zachary had not had a wedding dress custom-designed for his wife…

It suddenly hit him that he had left a lot of matters on the back burner, probably because he thought he still had time before the wedding.

“We got pregnant early, didn’t we, Tania? You had Zack by the time we got back from our honeymoon.”

Liam had no other intentions when he said this.

Nevertheless, Zachary took it the other way.

He believed his parents may say they were not in a hurry to have a grandchild, but the truth of the matter was his parents could not wait. His parents must think that he and Serenity should be pregnant as they had been married for months.

His mother had him early, carrying him in the belly when she returned from her honeymoon. Zachary had been officially together with Serenity for five months and had gone all the way with Serenity for a while. Still, there were no buns in the oven yet.

Did their health come into play?

Since Mrs. Stone said that frequent intimacy had an impact on the chances of conceiving, Zachary had been holding back for a couple of nights. All he did was hold Serenity to sleep.

“Zack, did you get into a fight with Seren because she isn’t pregnant?” Getting an inkling, Tania glared at her husband and asked her son.

Zachary fell silent for a while before answering, “Seren was worried that there might be a problem with our health and suggested a body check-up. I said no. I think there’s nothing wrong with me, and she’s healthy too. We both look after ourselves, so I doubt there’s a problem.

“She asked if I was scared of the doctors. Anyway, she put her foot down on getting a medical examination, but I didn’t want to. Then… I got mad and ditched her. I left.”

Liam and his wife were speechless.

The next minute, Tania raised her hand and gave Zachary a slap.

Liam threw the chessboard at his son.

The chess board and pieces that had been put away were slammed onto Zachary and scattered on the ground.

Zachary winced his face.

He looked at his parents.

“What’s the problem with getting a physical? Just think of it as an annual check-up. Fine, if you don’t want to get a physical. Why did you ditch Seren? You’re really… Seren probably feels hurt and wants to cry.”

Tania yelled at her son, “When are you ever going to change that temper of yours?”
