Chapter 748
In the past, they celebrated his birthday together, him as the absolute star of the day. But this year, everything had changed.
He was no longer the center of their world!
Their hearts and eyes were now focused on the men sitting next to them!
He’d been bustling around all morning, and no one had even noticed him. If nobody was gonna pay attention to him, then he’ll just have to make himself noticed.
He raised his glass, “First round’s on me, let’s toast to my birthday!”
Finally, they turned their attention to him and raised their glasses, “Happy birthday!”
But Comelia was looking after Marcus, “Zack, his stomachs not good, water will do.”
Zack shot them a look, “Since when did he become so weak that he can’t handle a drink?”
Marcus said, “It’s cool. It’s Zack’s birthday, I can drink less.”
“That works. Just a little then.” Saying ‘a little‘, Cornelia only left him a little, pouring the rest into her own glass.
Seeing this, Zack was beyond annoyed, “Cornelia, can you stop babying him? He’s your husband, not your son. Aren’t you tired of taking care of everything?”
It was not all Cornelia taking care of Marcus. Marcus took care of her too. But Zack had got his blinders on, always seeing it as her fussing over Marcus.
“It’s not always me taking care of him. He takes care of me too.” Cornelia said with a smile, “Zack, happy birthday! Hope you find your dream girl and start a family soon. Then we can all hang out together!”
Abigail added, “Zack, happy birthday! Hope you find the girl of your dreams tomorrow.”
Marcus and Nash also wished Zack a happy birthday.
After the birthday wishes, Cornelia and Abigail started serving Zack food and drinks, finally making him feel important. He said, “You two better remember, just because you’ve got husbands, it doesn’t mean you can forget about me.”
Cornelia and Abigail both said, “In our hearts, you’re always the most important.”
Their words lifted the cloud that had been hanging over Zack all morning.
Feeling a bit triumphant, he glanced at Marcus, “Mr. Hartley, why aren’t you eating? Better hurry before the dishes turn cold.”
He turned to Nash, “Nash, your stomach’s okay, right?”
Nash replied, “I’m good.”
Zack said, “Then let’s have a drink.”
