Serenity and Zachary York novel Chapter 2221

“That’s right. The baby’s health is more important than gender. The York family has had sons for generations. They can’t blame you for not being able to birth a daughter. The deciding factor of a baby’s gender is the men anyway.”

“Seren,” called a familiar voice.

It was Grandma May.

Elisa and Serenity looked toward the office door. They saw her entering with Mrs. Lane carrying a few insulated lunch boxes in her hands too.

“What brings you here, Nana?”

“Grandma May.”

Serenity and Elisa stood.

When Serenity spotted the lunch boxes Mrs. Lane was holding, she figured out why Grandma May had come. They were delivering food to her.

The old lady smiled and said, “It’s noon. I don’t want you walking around because the weather’s scorching, so Cecilia and I are here to deliver some food for you to eat in the office. You can even take a rest after eating.”

After speaking, she grinned at Elisa and said, “It’s been a while, Little Fireball.”

Elisa grumbled unhappily, “I’m not little anymore, Grandma May. I’m even older than Serenity. You should stop calling me Little Fireball. I’m not even fiery anymore.”

Grandma May laughed. She said, “In my eyes, you’re still young. You’re only tame with the people you care about but still as fiery as ever in public. It’s the right thing to do. You should always reserve your gentlest side to the people closest to you.”

When she noticed Elisa was already holding her bag, she added, “I prepared extra food, Elisa. It’s enough for you and Seren. You don’t have to eat out.”

Elisa smiled and said, “I would love to have lunch with Seren and taste Mrs. Lane’s cooking, but we have a lunch appointment with a client, Grandma May. I don’t want Seren to go because that client smokes. The smell is strong, and Seren’s pregnant. I can’t let her inhale second-hand smoke.

“I was in the middle of dissuading Seren from following me. You came at the right time, Grandma May. You can accompany her to have lunch here. I’m going to meet the client now.”
