Chapter 436

It was said that the old ladies in the gentry were not easy to get along with, but Grandma May was affable, just like an ordinary old woman. She also usually dressed plainly and did not seem like she was part of the gentry at all.

Zachary’s gaze was deep. He touched the top of her head and said in a low voice, “You’re a very realistic person who doesn’t dream.”

“I’m a person who lives in real life. Even if I want to dream, it depends on the dream. It’s a waste of time dreaming that kind of unrealistic dream, not to mention it’ll affect my sleep too.”

Zachary pursed his lips and said nothing.

After strolling for half a day, the couple met up with Grandma May and the rest.

They settled on lunch in an interesting restaurant. If not for the modern facilities inside, Serenity would have thought they traveled back to a tavern from bygone times.

Sonny was especially happy today.

Grandma May and Mrs. Lane took him to feed the fishes and bought him as much fish feed as he wanted to feed them to his heart’s content.

It was easy to get tired when having fun, and he fell asleep in Serenity’s arms even before he finished his meal.

“Zack, Nana is old and can’t walk that far. You take Seren for an afternoon stroll while Cecilia and I rest here with Sonny. Let’s stay the night here. That way, we can take our time to enjoy ourselves.”

Zachary gave a faint hum.

Serenity asked, “Or we could go back?”

Grandma May said, “Since you’re here, you have to finish exploring the place. It’ll be a waste of the ticket if you go back after venturing into just half of the resort.

“It’s okay, Seren. You and Zack go for a stroll in the French garden. I’ve been here a few times, so it doesn’t matter if I don’t go again. Don’t worry about Sonny either. Cecilia and I will take care of him.”

With Grandma May’s advice, Serenity decided not to waste the tickets bought. After the meal, she took a short rest and continued to hang out with Zachary.

Zachary boldly took her hand. From behind, the young couple looked like lovebirds.

Grandma May hurriedly took out her cell phone and captured photos and videos of the couple’s fading backs.

She said, “I’ll take a picture and send it to Zack so he can look back on it when he has the time. I wish him godspeed. Now, my goal is.’t to hold my great–granddaughter. It’s to make the couple become a real couple first, not just one in name.”

Mrs. Lane laughed. “Mr. Zachary finally figured out his feelings for the missus. He moves quickly.”

He was the head of the York family, after all. His decisions were usually crisp and clear.

Mrs. Lane firmly believed that Zachary would win over Serenity very soon.

“That’s not necessarily true. Some people, like Zack, have high IQ but low EQ. It’s not that bad though.

At least there’s some progress. I was really worried when they had a misunderstanding and started a cold war some time ago.”

“It’s normal for couples to have a few misunderstandings.”

Mrs. Lane thought, ‘Mr. Zachary and the missus got married out of convenience with no emotional foundation, so they still can’t trust each other completely. It’s normal to have misunderstandings, conflicts, and cold wars.‘

Grandma May stopped taking pictures and said, “I hope they won’t have any misunderstandings in the future. With Zack’s character, it’s a lifelong matter once he falls for someone. He’s domineering and has a strong urge to control. If they fall out again, who knows how long it’ll take for them to reconcile.”

She sighed at the thought of her grandson concealing his identity to examine Serenity’s character. That was a landmine. Once it explodes, the consequences would be unimaginable.

However, that was the path chosen by Zachary himself. No matter what the consequences were, he had to bear with it himself.
