Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 1995

Donald took Kevin to go fishing. The two of them fished for the whole afternoon.

In the evening, they returned home with two buckets.

Donald’s bucket had over ten fish, whereas Kevin’s had tens of fish.

“Kev, you’re so good at fishing. We were both fishing with the same rod and the same bait, but why did the fish always go to your side and take your bait? This is the least I’ve caught since I started liking fishing.”

Donald walked and complimented Kevin for knowing how to fish.

Kevin responded with a smile, “Donnie, I was just lucky. Perhaps the fish came to my bait because I’m good-looking.”

Donald laughed out loud. “Yes, yes, yes, you’re young and handsome. Even the fish are charmed by you. Kev, what else do you know?”

“Donnie, I think you should ask what I don’t know. My brothers and I are multi-talented. My nana said it’s always good to have more skills. We learned everything we wanted to learn and those we didn’t want to learn.

“In a way, we’re well-versed artistically and academically, but whether we master any of them or not is another story.”

Donald commented, “Your nana is known for raising children. Your father’s generation and yours were raised by her. Each one of you is outstanding.”

“Donnie, you’re overpraising her. You and Mrs. Queen are also good at raising children—Hayden and Hugh are particularly excellent. I believe every elder in Jensburg envies you.”

The compliments from Kevin made Mr. Donald grin so much that he could not close his mouth.

He asked Kevin, “Are you going to grill all these small fish? I’ll ask the housekeeper to prepare more ingredients, and we’ll have a barbeque tonight. I’ll call Hayden, Hugh, and Sophia to come home. The more, the merrier.”

As Donald said that, he called Hayden. Hayden was getting ready to leave work when she received a call from her dad. She asked in a low voice, “Dad, is something wrong?”

“Can’t I call you if nothing is wrong? You’re done with work, right? Do you have any social engagements tonight? Even if you do, cancel it. Ask your brother to come home for dinner too. We’re having a barbeque. It’ll only be nice if we have more people.”

Hayden replied to him, “Dad, I have an engagement, so I can’t go home to have dinner with you. If you think there aren’t enough people, call my cousins. I guarantee it’ll be lively at home.”
