Married at First Sight (Serenity and Zachary) novel Chapter 4442


 
Chapter     4442 Jane noticed the baby lying on Serenity’s left and immediately crawled over, curious. She tried to climb over Serenity to touch the baby. 
Jane quickly picked her up. “Avah, no crawling around. Your little brother is sleeping—don’t wake him up.” 
Avah squirmed in her arms, leaning toward Serenity, still wanting to see the baby. 
To her, he was just another one of her dolls. 
Enzo, still on Serenity’s lap, spotted a small toy nearby as Avah leaned toward the baby. 
He reached for it, thinking it was his. 
“Enzo, that’s not a toy—that’s your little brother,” Serenity explained, smiling. 
Enzo looked at the baby, then back at Serenity, then over to his mom. 
Little brother? 
Oh, he got it. 
A “brother” is someone who cries a lot. 
There was a crybaby at Fourth Uncle’s house. Mom said that was his younger brother too. 
“Cry… cry… crybaby,” Enzo said in his little baby voice. 
Serenity was confused. 
She asked Zachary, who had just come over, “Did he say crybaby? Was he talking about the baby?” 
Zachary picked up the baby while Jane explained with a laugh, “You told him that was his little brother. He must’ve thought of Fabian—Fourth Uncle’s son. Fabian cries a lot, and Fourth Uncle always calls him a crybaby.” 
“So now Enzo thinks all little brothers are crybabies.” 
Serenity gently tapped Enzo’s nose. “Enzo, you’re a crybaby too. This little guy is behaving himself right now—he hasn’t cried yet.” 
“Brother.” Avah ran over and hugged one of Zachary’s legs, tilting her head up with sparkling eyes. “Uncle, brother, brother.” 
Zachary couldn’t resist her cuteness. He sat on the bed and leaned down so Avah could get a closer look. 
Jane quickly warned, “Avah, you can look, but don’t poke him.” 
Sometimes, when Jane held Fabian, Avah would poke his face. Fabian didn’t mind, but Jane always worried she might poke him in the eye. 
Fabian was three months younger than Enzo and Avah. He was strong and squirmed a lot when held, so he could dodge. 
But Serenity’s baby was just a few days old. He couldn’t move much and was asleep. 
“Brother.” 
Avah stared at the baby curiously and didn’t reach out. She looked up at Zachary again as if she wanted to ask a question but couldn’t find the words. 
“He can’t talk yet,” Zachary explained gently. “He’s still sleeping.” 
Avah nodded, pretending to understand. 
Enzo came over too to look at the baby. 
Seeing they were just watching and not touching, Jane relaxed. 
Serenity said with a smile, “His daddy is holding him. No way Zachary would let them poke at the baby.” 
Maybe it was because they were all staring—suddenly, the baby woke up and started crying. 
Enzo and Avah looked at each other in panic, then turned around and ran back to Jane. 
They thought they had scared the baby. 
Their reaction made Serenity laugh out loud. 
So cute. 
Zachary stood, gently rocking the baby in his arms, softly cooing “oh-oh” to calm him.
