‘Why is there a sound of a baby crying next to Serenity?’ Zachary wondered.
“Babe, you should go and get busy. I’ll be hanging up now. Just wait for me to go home.”
When Serenity heard her godson crying, she did not want her husband anymore and immediately hung up the phone.
Serenity was in FC Manor at the moment.
She had acknowledged Jane’s children as her godchildren. In her words, she wanted to be blessed with Jane’s good fortune so she could also be pregnant with a pigeon pair in the future, bearing two precious ones at the same time and having a son and a daughter.
Serenity was afraid that Zachary could guess that she was in FC Manor, so she hurriedly ended the call.
Zachary guessed it indeed.
He sourly muttered to himself, “She went to FC Manor to see the kids. How could she not ask me along? I miss my godchildren very much too.”
Zachary particularly liked his goddaughter.
That little one was very well-behaved and rarely cried. On the contrary, her brother cried all day and was so noisy that it made others dizzy.
‘No wonder Nana always wanted a great-granddaughter. She must think that girls are quiet and well-behaved, unlike boys who like to cry and are naughty,’ Zachary thought.
Ben also preferred girls over boys, so he doted on his precious daughter the most. During the babies’ sip and see shower, Zachary brought Serenity to Annenburg. The petty Ben refused to let Zachary carry Chloe but let him carry Connor however long he wanted.
In the end, Zachary was only able to hold Chloe from Serenity, who carried her first, allowing him to enjoy for a moment. The little girl was raised very well. She was fair, soft, and a little chubby. She was so adorable that Zachary wanted to bite her a few times.
Of course, he dared not do that.
Ben and the other men of the Johnsons would fight him if he did.
“No, he’s just hungry. It’s time to feed them, but the formula isn’t ready. This boy is impatient, so he started wailing.”
Jane held her son and coaxed him. The nanny had gone to prepare the formula.
On the other hand, Chloe was still lying in her crib with Sonny and Grandma May guarding her one on each side. The elder and the kid looked at her without turning away.
Grandma May was seeing Chloe for the first time.
She was busy during the babies’ sip and see shower, and she was getting older, so she did not attend the celebration. Nonetheless, she prepared gifts and asked Zachary and Serenity to bring them over to the children.
Grandma May often heard Serenity talk about how adorable the babies were. She wanted to see them and thought she was not too old, so she could still fly in a plane and go around.
When Grandma May saw the well-behaved Chloe at this moment, she cherished her very much. She touched the little girl’s tender face from time to time and stuffed her finger into the girl’s palm, and the girl would immediately grab it.
