Chapter 3632
Married at First Sight
Serenity responded, âNo one dares to covet your wife, but plenty of people are interested in my husband.â
Zachary did have some admirers, but no one dared show it anymore, knowing the couple had a strong relationship, and they couldnât replace Serenity.
Still, some people werenât willing to give up, hoping Serenity would fall out of favor and be kicked out of the York family by Zachary.
The more vicious ones even wished for a difficult childbirth for Serenity, hoping both she and the baby would die.
Serenity knew some women admired her husband and hoped she wouldnât live a good life. If they didnât say it outright, she would pretend not to know. After all, the better and happier she lived, the more jealous they would be.
ââ¦Honey, itâs late. You should go to bed. If you donât, our baby will be the one who suffers.â
Zachary, who was feeling a bit down, quickly changed the subject and urged Serenity to sleep. But he didnât really want to end the video call.
Eventually, Serenity hung up.
After putting down her phone, Serenity touched her belly and spoke to the baby, âYour dad is still hiding something from me. Even if itâs well-intentioned, heâs still lying.â
After a moment of silence, she added, âBaby, we canât blame your dad. Heâs doing it for our sake.
Right now, for you, I shouldnât take any risks. Everyone who loves you doesnât want me to take any risks. Do you think Dad and the others will come back safely?â The baby moved as she touched her belly, as if responding to her.
After feeling the babyâs kick, Serenity stopped touching her belly, not wanting to get the baby too excited, which could disturb their sleep.
Instead of resting right away, she went to the next room to check on the two children. When she opened the door, she found Jane there too.
They smiled at each other. Jane said, âI came to see if the little ones kicked off their blankets. Sonny is sleeping soundly, but Titus is still copying the medical book.â
Serenity looked at Sonny in bed, seeing that he was asleep and covered with a blanket. She then walked over to Jane.
âTitus is copying the medical book?â
Serenity looked closer. Titusâs handwriting was roughâtypical for a young child just learning to write.
At first, the writing was neat, but as he went on, he seemed to get tired or impatient. After all, he was only three or four years old, so his patience was limited.
As a result, his handwriting became crooked, and some words were even unrecognizable.
Jane asked, âDid the senior genius doctor ask him to copy it, or was it Dr. Carden?â
âMy master asked me to copy it. She told me to do one or two pages every day, and I still have a lot left to finish.â Titusâs hands were tired, and he was yawning frequently, looking sleepy.
He gave Jane a pleading look.
Serenity looked at the content he was supposed to copy. It wasnât much for an adult, but for a three or four-year-old, it was a lot.
However, since Titus was Lilianâs apprentice and Janeâs adopted son, whether he could rest or not was up to Jane and Lilian, so Serenity didnât interfere.
âGo wash your hands and use the bathroom, then go to bed and rest. Tomorrow, Iâll talk to Dr.
Cardenâs master and ask if you can copy just half a page. You donât need to do so much. When youâre older, you can copy more.â
Jane felt that the children, who had been in school for several months, should be able to enjoy their winter break. At three or four years old, they should be allowed to have fun.
