Serenity responded, “No one dares to covet your wife, but plenty of people are interested in my husband.”
Zachary did have some admirers, but no one dared show it anymore, knowing the couple had a strong relationship, and they couldn’t replace Serenity.
Still, some people weren’t willing to give up, hoping Serenity would fall out of favor and be kicked out of the York family by Zachary.
The more vicious ones even wished for a difficult childbirth for Serenity, hoping both she and the baby would die.
Serenity knew some women admired her husband and hoped she wouldn’t live a good life. If they didn’t say it outright, she would pretend not to know. After all, the better and happier she lived, the more jealous they would be.
“…Honey, it’s late. You should go to bed. If you don’t, our baby will be the one who suffers.”
Zachary, who was feeling a bit down, quickly changed the subject and urged Serenity to sleep. But he didn’t really want to end the video call.
Eventually, Serenity hung up.
After putting down her phone, Serenity touched her belly and spoke to the baby, “Your dad is still hiding something from me. Even if it’s well-intentioned, he’s still lying.”
After a moment of silence, she added, “Baby, we can’t blame your dad. He’s doing it for our sake. Right now, for you, I shouldn’t take any risks. Everyone who loves you doesn’t want me to take any risks. Do you think Dad and the others will come back safely?” The baby moved as she touched her belly, as if responding to her.
After feeling the baby’s kick, Serenity stopped touching her belly, not wanting to get the baby too excited, which could disturb their sleep.
Instead of resting right away, she went to the next room to check on the two children. When she opened the door, she found Jane there too.
They smiled at each other. Jane said, “I came to see if the little ones kicked off their blankets. Sonny is sleeping soundly, but Titus is still copying the medical book.”
Serenity looked at Sonny in bed, seeing that he was asleep and covered with a blanket. She then walked over to Jane.
“Titus is copying the medical book?”
Serenity looked closer. Titus’s handwriting was rough—typical for a young child just learning to write.
At first, the writing was neat, but as he went on, he seemed to get tired or impatient. After all, he was only three or four years old, so his patience was limited.
As a result, his handwriting became crooked, and some words were even unrecognizable.
Jane asked, “Did the senior genius doctor ask him to copy it, or was it Dr. Carden?”
“My master asked me to copy it. She told me to do one or two pages every day, and I still have a lot left to finish.” Titus’s hands were tired, and he was yawning frequently, looking sleepy.
He gave Jane a pleading look.
Serenity looked at the content he was supposed to copy. It wasn’t much for an adult, but for a three or four-year-old, it was a lot.
However, since Titus was Lilian’s apprentice and Jane’s adopted son, whether he could rest or not was up to Jane and Lilian, so Serenity didn’t interfere.
“Go wash your hands and use the bathroom, then go to bed and rest. Tomorrow, I’ll talk to Dr. Carden’s master and ask if you can copy just half a page. You don’t need to do so much. When you’re older, you can copy more.”
Jane felt that the children, who had been in school for several months, should be able to enjoy their winter break. At three or four years old, they should be allowed to have fun.

I like the fact that no longer how long a setting is dwelt on,still no character is forgotten in other plot and that there is closure on all the characters.Yes, a bit of inconsistencies but all in all, enthralling....
