Chapter 372 Zachary said after a brief pause, “Nana, you really do think in the long run. Tell your sons to put in the effort and give you a granddaughter instead. It might be faster that way.”
Old Mrs. York instantly laughed and scolded him, “If your grandfather was still alive, would you say that it‘ll be quicker for us to try for a daughter instead? Your parents, aunts, and uncles are already old. How can they give birth to more children? They didn‘t manage to get a daughter when they were young, so they can only pin their hopes for a granddaughter now.” “My third uncle and aunt are only in their forties. I think they can still try.”
If his third uncle and aunt were here, they would say, “Zachary, you traitor!”
“Are you busy now?”
“I‘m on the phone with my Nana.”
“Look, that‘s what I mean. You‘re not cute at all. You‘re not busy, right? If you‘re not, I‘ll go to the office to find you. Let‘s go shopping.” Zachary was at a loss for words.
“I‘m working, Nana.”
“The company won‘t close down even without you. I‘m asking you to come shopping with me for your own good. You have to get used to shopping with women. Only then will you have the patience to accompany Serenity. It‘s an opportunity for you to gain experience, but you don‘t know how to appreciate my good intentions.”
The corners of Zachary‘s mouth twitched, and he said in exasperation, “Tell Callum to go with you. I have a lunch appointment at noon.”
“Didn‘t you cancel it?”
He was silent for a moment and said, “My wife is currently being occupied, so I have no choice but to carry on with the lunch appointment.”
“Haha, you rascal! Look at yourself! What did I say?”
Zachary was speechless.
“Fine, I won‘t take up any more of your time. I‘ll ask your third brother to have a stroll with me. Out of all your brothers and cousins, your third cousin brother is the most gifted at talking. I don‘t have to worry about being bored with him around.”
