Chapter 732
“It might be my mom.”
Zachary got up and said, “I called her after you fell asleep last night and asked her to come over to accompany you to buy an evening dress for the company’s annual dinner.”~
Upon hearing that, Serenity’s eyes snapped open. She sat up on the bed and said, ” You go back to sleep. I’ll go get the door.”
As she spoke, she quickly had a change of clothes and combed her hair.
Zachary watched her as she moved swiftly and said, “When you go out, go to the kitchen first and put on an apron.”
“Why?”
“Just do as I say.”
Zachary grinned. “Go on and get the door. Don’t keep your mother-in-law waiting.”
Serenity turned to leave. After leaving the room, she followed Zachary’s instructions and went to the kitchen to get an apron. After putting it on, she jogged over to the door while calling out, “Coming.”
The person standing in front of the door was indeed her mother-in-law, Tania.
“Morning, Mom.”
Serenity smiled sweetly and greeted her mother-in-law.
Tania was carrying two bags in both hands. Serenity saw this and quickly reached out to help her mother-in-law carry the items. “What are these? They’re quite heavy.”
Serenity came to answer the door in an apron, so it was obvious that she was preparing breakfast. The smile on her face was very sweet, and she even took over the bags from Tania. Tania’s expression softened by a fraction. She walked into the house and said, “I brought you two something to eat. One of the bags is seafood. Zack mentioned you like seafood. I came over early, so I bought you a bag of fresh seafood.
“This basket is full of eggs. Your nana insisted that I bring it here, saying that they’re authentic farm eggs and are better than those you usually buy.”
These eggs were actually bought too, but they were purchased from the workers of the York family’s orchard. With the consent of the head of the York family, those workers caught a lot of chickens to raise in the orchard.
So, technically, it was accurate to say that these eggs were farm eggs.
